On October 3, Jeju Governor Jang Shu held a banquet at the government office at night to entertain the scholars and relevant examiners and deacons, which is also known as the Luming Banquet.

Going to a banquet at Yan's house last night, Gu Haotian still feels a lot of pressure when he thinks about it, Yan's father, an old pedant, talks about scriptures, scriptures, history, children, and collection of letters endlessly, and wants to "discuss" with him from time to time, but Gu Haotian is miserable, and eating a meal is more tiring than participating in the autumn festival.

It was easy to look forward to the dismissal, Gu Haotian hurriedly excused himself and said goodbye, for fear that his old man would leave him behind again to discuss some advanced academic issues. Yan Junqing saw Gu Haotian's embarrassment, and when he sent him to the door, he said that the old master of his family personally came out to eat with his juniors, which was unique, and others couldn't ask for it, and he had to think about it carefully, why the two elders in the family gave him face today and gossiped with him for a long time.

Yan Junqing had something to say, as well as the mysterious smile when he said goodbye, which made Gu Haotian think all the way. Later, he returned to the inn, but was broken by Pan Jinlian, saying that people chose a son-in-law carefully. I have to say that women are always more sensitive to love than men, Gu Haotian suddenly remembered that Yan's mother had asked him if he had been married, and couldn't help but think of that beautiful and beautiful face.

In the middle of the day, Yan Junqing's carriage arrived at the inn, picked him up and went to the Luming banquet, looked at Gu Haotian who was still tired, and asked jokingly:

"Why, last night lovesickness."

"Acacia, Acacia, I don't have this hobby."

After having a deep friendship with Yan Junqing, Gu Haotian talked to him casually.

"Hugh is stubborn, you'll have to ask me for help then."

Yan Junqing smiled, pulled Gu Haotian and went to the mansion.

The mansion and the inn are not far away, and the carriage will arrive in a while. The two got out of the car and went inside side by side, but saw that many of the middle school soldiers had already come, and they gathered together in twos and threes to whisper.

"Have you ever prepared a poem?" Yan Junqing asked Gu Haotian quietly.

"What poetry?" Gu Haotian was confused when he heard it.

"You don't know!" Yan Junqing glanced at Gu Haotian suspiciously, and saw that he didn't seem to be fake, so he continued, "You think that this deer feast, eating and drinking, will be over, you, a talented man whose poetry is famous all over Jeju, if you don't show your hands, there will be no less than a good story." ”

Yan Junqing saw his dazed appearance, and couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Damn feudal society, how can you go there and moan without illness, Gu Haotian let out a sad cry in his heart. I had to search my intestines and scrape my stomach, trying to find a poem to deal with the situation, but the stock of this kind of poem was too small, and I didn't have a clue for a while.

In the lobby of the government office, there are several cases in the middle, lined up on the left and right, and after a while, I saw a man in his fifties coming out of the back hall surrounded by a group of people. Gu Haotian knew that this person must be Uncle Zhang, and he saw that he was of medium stature, with a short beard, and two eyes that were particularly bright.

As Uncle Zhang sat down at night, everyone sat down in turn. The examiners and deacons sat on the left side, a group of new lifters sat on the right side, the dismissed Yan Junqing occupied a table exclusively, Gu Haotian and the second person surnamed Yu sat at the second table, and the rest were all three people at a table. Then everyone sang "Poetry, Xiaoya, Luming" together, Gu Haotian didn't know it at all, but he knew how to cheat, and he performed the singing "lip-syncing" of later generations exquisitely, and finally passed this level.

Later, Zhang Shuye, as the prefect and the chief examiner of the undergraduate, delivered a speech, which was nothing more than to encourage the new people to study and study, win the crown, serve the country, and benefit the people.

Everyone thanked them together, and then the banquet began. After thirty years of drinking, he really started the fixed game - composing poetry.

Yan Junqing was the first to be relieved, but this guy was obviously prepared, and when he saw him standing up with confidence, he pretended to think about it before reading out a poem.

"The autumn shadow is long, and the brocade robe is full of banquets. Jiuhua is beautiful between the eyebrows, and the thousand Buddhas are famous and famous. The remaining Lianzhu Quarui should be, and you will see the fairy cinnamon full of branches. The spring breeze is good to return, and the clothes are in the hometown. ”

Everyone applauded when they heard it, and Uncle Zhang nodded his head at night. Then there was the second Yu Shijuren, who was obviously prepared, but saw that he calmly chanted a song, and attracted a burst of praise.

Let's say that Gu Haotian has been searching for poems since he listened to Yan Junqing's prompts, but this kind of poems is too unpopular, and the famous ones are not many in later generations, so he can't think of it for a while, seeing that the surname Yu is good, Gu Haotian can't help but lament, that day in the chrysanthemum garden, Su Dongpo's poems saved him by mistake, and today ......, Su Dongpo! At this time, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, remembering one of his poems about the deer feast, it is really an endless road, since he read the collection of Su Shi in this era, he has no scruples about stealing his works, and he suddenly settled down.

"Gu Haotian, it's your turn." At this moment, he saw someone calling his name.

Gu Haotian looked up, but it was an official in his thirties opposite, but he seemed to have bad intentions in his eyes. But since he has the bottom in his heart, he has nothing to fear. So he got up calmly, saluted Uncle Zhang at the main table, and then slowly chanted the emergency poem that he had come up with on the spot.

"Even the rider hurriedly painted the drums, and Xijun won the championship again. Jin Weifu chrysanthemum urged the feast, and Hongrui waited for spring to enter the customs. He once accompanied Yu Cave in the day, and saw Fu Nanshan again. When to enjoy the peace together, the wind and the moon will be played overnight. ”

"Okay, worthy of the name of a talented man."

After singing a song, I heard someone on the other side cheering, but it was an official in his thirties, and he also glanced proudly at the official who had just opened his mouth to urge the poem.

Then there was a continuous cheer in the lobby, and Uncle Zhang nodded frequently, looking very satisfied.

Finally passed a pass, Gu Haotian breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to sit down, but saw the official who was urging him to write poems in his thirties on the other side spoke again.

"The ancient Ju is full of talents, the export is a chapter, the reputation is not worthy, but it is so splendid, only one is difficult to feast the ears, I heard that the Juyuan Poetry Club, the ancient Ju people are even endowed with four songs, I don't know if I can reproduce the style of the day today."

Damn, you are buying vegetables when Lao Tzu writes poems, Gu Haotian looked at each other, and his heart came up, and he was about to open his mouth. The official who was the first to cheer just now spoke before him.

"Lord Liu, the Luming Banquet is not a Shilin gathering, you have passed it a little."

"Lord Shi's words are wrong, Gu Juren is not an ordinary scholar, so naturally it is a different matter, otherwise how could Lord Shi be blue-eyed. Is there a mistake in what Lord Zhang's subordinates said? ”

The surnamed Liu replied lightly, and also led the topic to Uncle Zhang.

Uncle Zhang glanced at him lightly and didn't say anything, but turned his eyes to Gu Haotian and looked at him quietly, as if it was up to him to decide.

And Gu Haotian had already understood at this time that the two people on the opposite side must be the two parties who were in the legend and disputed their own scrolls in the Gongyuan, and the one surnamed Liu was undoubtedly the opposing party. This will not be a question of whether he can do poetry or not, but a question of maintaining his own strength, and he even sees that Zhang Shuye also hopes that he can show something.

Gu Haotian stood there quietly, his mind was fiercely worried about the poems in his memory, and everyone's eyes in the lobby were focused on him, even Yan Junqing looked at him with some worry.

"Gu Juren, the article is natural, I really can't do it, and it's not very embarrassing, but the lower officials can't think that you, a great talent, also have difficulties, just now it was abrupt, forgive me, forgive me."

The surnamed Liu saw that Gu Haotian couldn't open his mouth for a long time, and he didn't expect to be able to do it, so he made sarcastic remarks with schadenfreude.

"It's a disappointment to this Lord Liu, and I just thought of a song below, please correct it."

Gu Haotian replied without being arrogant or humble, and then calmly chanted a poem.

"From the mountains and rivers of the past, Kwaqilu, only the current cultural relics are in Jeju. The autumn wind carries a book and a sword, and the spring door worships the crown. The holy world takes talents first and is practical, and scholars serve the country with no self. Let's look at Tingce's 3,000 words, and worry about writing about the usual acres. ”

"Good!"

Gu Haotian's voice fell, and he saw that the hall resounded with warm cheers.

"Does Lord Liu have any advice?" Gu Haotian hated the person surnamed Liu opposite, so he took the opportunity to slap him.

"Ahh Well, there's still some literary style. The forced face of the surnamed Liu was like a pig's liver, and he couldn't say a word in a different way.

Gu Haotian glanced at him with disdain, turned around and saluted Uncle Zhang, and said:

"Lord Zhang, this Lord Liu at the banquet has taught him several times to compose poems to help the fun, the kid thinks of this township test, and the discussion and strategy questions are all about the strategy of governing the border, and now I am waiting for the song banquet to be leveled, but the people of dozens of states in the north have fallen under the rule of Hu Lu, and when they are thinking about it, they occasionally get a few words, or they are not in line with the interests of Lord Liu, but I don't know if they can be ugly."

Uncle Zhang also secretly praised Gu Hao's genius for his quick thinking just now, and seeing his remarks to the surname Liu, he was amusing that this kid was also a retributive character, but when he saw that he said that he had poems, he was even more surprised, so he nodded and promised.

Seeing Gu Haotian looking around the hall, his expression became solemn, and everyone in the hall unconsciously quieted down when they saw this, and then his low and tragic voice sounded in the hall.

"30,000 miles east of the river into the sea, thousands of mountains on the sky. The remnants are in tears, and they look at Yunnan for another year. ”

When the sound ended, the lobby was silent, and Gu Haotian stood like a sculpture in the north.

"Youyun South looks forward to another year"!

"Youyun South looks forward to another year"!

Uncle Zhang muttered to himself at night, but the corners of his eyes slowly moistened.

"For more than 60 years, Youyun's father is looking south in his old age, but he is disappointed every year, I am ashamed!"

Uncle Zhang sighed at night, infinitely lonely. Then he saw him tremblingly pouring himself full of wine, got up and left his seat, and slowly walked to Gu Haotian in the surprised eyes of everyone.

"I'll wait for the old man, regain the rivers and mountains, and wait for the next generation, the old man will pay tribute to him with this wine, and he will never forget each other in the future." Uncle Zhang touched the cup with Gu Haotian at night, and saluted the new imperial examiners, and went head-on.

Suddenly, all the people in the hall "brushed" and stood up together, raising their glasses and drinking them together, but no one said a word, only a strong emotion echoed in the hall.
