The children of the scholar clan have a prominent family background, and the education they have received since childhood is not comparable to that of ordinary people. Ordinary people can't even solve the problem of food and clothing, who cares about the problem of children's reading?

Although the imperial court has implemented the imperial examination, the time is still short, and in troubled times, its real role is insignificant.

Ordinary people don't know much about the truth, and they are easy to be bewitched, but the children of the scholar clan are different, Li Xuanba doesn't think that he can make them die with a few heroic words, so Li Xuanba chooses to crush the proud hearts of those children of the scholar clan, and then scold them awake!

Last night, Li Xuanba discussed with Eldest Sun Wuji and others for a long time, and almost everything that happened the next day was what they expected, or rather, it was carried out according to their ideas.

Shizuka's appearance, of course, was not because Li Xuan was domineering and confused, and the conversation between him and Yang Tong was not gossip.

Literati have arrogance, and young literati not only have arrogance, but are also prone to impulsiveness.

The first thing Li Xuanba said when he stood in front of them was to humiliate them fiercely, whether it was tolerable or unbearable, they naturally wanted to fight back and use their most conceited ability to humiliate them back, so they proposed a poem.

If Li Xuanba directly agreed, it was very likely to arouse the suspicion of those scholars and disciples, and he pretended to be afraid, and used the method of agitation to make everyone agree to bet.

Until this time, Li Xuanba was still euphemistically prevaricating, raising the question of bets, inducing those children of the scholar clan to bet on entering the Guozijian to study, and the first step of the plan was successful.

The children of the scholar clan are disobedient, Li Xuanba wants to slap them in the face, what can be more humiliating than losing to a servant? Bringing Shizuka into the palace and comparing her to poetry with the children of the scholar clan was the idea of the eldest grandson Wuji.

Everything is ready, but there is one more problem: the poems that Li Xuanba remembers. Most of them are only two sentences, which is not a poem at all, strictly speaking. So Fang Xuanling gave a plan to divert the attention of the children of the scholar clan.

Not everyone can write a poem in seven steps like Cao Zhi, and the time for half a pillar of incense is not very long.

Li Xuanba increased the difficulty of the competition and asked half a pillar of incense to complete two lines of poetry. Everyone's attention was focused on the limit of half a pillar of incense, compared to which a poem with only two lines was nothing.

"Shizuka, I was surprised by your expression today." In the Zhongyong Mansion, Li Xuanba chatted with the eldest grandson Wuji and the others for a while, and then said to Shizuka, the biggest hero of the day: "But I'm curious, how did you make your face pale?" ”

When Shizuka heard this, the smile on her face suddenly froze, and she replied with a red face: "The slave is just thinking about one thing. ”

"What's going on. Can you tell us about it? Li Xuanba was in a good mood today, and asked curiously.

"Childe, don't ask." Shizuka lowered her head and said embarrassedly.

As the so-called curiosity kills the cat, the more Shizuka doesn't say it, the more curious Li Xuanba becomes, and even the eldest grandson Wuji and others are hung up their appetites, and they look at Shizuka at the same time.

Shizuka was under the gaze of several big men. He became overwhelmed, his hands clutching the hem of his clothes. said softly: "Childe, do you remember the first time the slave maid went to study with Childe?" ”

Li Xuanba thought about it for a while, instantly understood what Qiu Xiang meant, and smiled awkwardly.

"Childe, what happened between you and Shizuka?" Li Gou was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, so he smiled. raised his eyebrows and said, "Listen to her, it should be something that happened in Li Mansion in Hedong, right?" So you guys were so early"

"Shut up and stop talking nonsense." Li Xuanba glared at Li Gou and said angrily: "During the day, Shizuka should be thinking about the picture of me eating people." But I've confirmed that I've only eaten it before, and I've never eaten it. After speaking, his thumb and forefinger touched his chin and looked at Li Gou carefully, his eyes like a beast staring at its prey.

Li Xuanba said it easily, but Li Gou and the others were frightened, especially Li Gou under Li Xuanba's gaze, who felt that he would be torn apart by Li Xuanba at any time, and couldn't help but shrink his head to reduce his sense of existence.

Shizuka's face flushed even more, she secretly glanced at Li Xuanba, and saw that he was not really annoyed, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After a few people laughed, the eldest grandson Wuji spoke: "Shizuka lady, Wuji has something unclear, and please ask Shizuka to solve Wuji's doubts." ”

"Mr. Changsun, please speak." Shizuka owes a salute. Li Xuanba values the eldest grandson Wuji very much, and the eldest grandson Wuji is not as profligate as Li Gou, so Shizuka's attitude when talking to him is naturally different. It's not that she looks down on Li Gou, it's really that Li Gou sometimes speaks that makes her very embarrassed and shy.

"You know the poems that Childe writes on weekdays, but Wuji saw that you hesitated before putting pen to paper, I don't know why?" The eldest grandson Wuji got up and returned the salute, curious. Shizuka will definitely become Li Xuanba's wife in the future, how can the eldest grandson Wuji treat her as an ordinary maidservant?

When Eldest Sun Wuji mentioned this, the others also became confused.

"There are too many poems written by Childe, and each one is very good, Shizuka doesn't know which one to choose, so she hesitates." Shizuka replied in a low voice. After she finished speaking, others didn't feel anything, but she was embarrassed, because she felt that this seemed to be praising her husband.

Neither the eldest grandson Wuji nor Fang Xuanling thought of this, although they were full of wisdom, it didn't mean that they could really be counted as a last resort. Last night, a few people only roughly calculated today's situation, and there were some things that were not within the scope of their plans.

For example, Li Xuanba's last arrogant appearance.

"Speaking of which, Childe's writing is really amazing, and thinking of Lord Ming's expression is really pleasant." After chatting about Shizuka, Fang Xuanling sighed with emotion: "I wonder if the son has thought about it a long time ago, and Shizuka Niang alone can't make them happy and convinced?"

"How could I have thought of something that you hadn't even thought of?" Li Xuanba said with a smile: "However, those poems were indeed written by me before, and now I use them by the way." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji smiled meaningfully, and Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng looked away, obviously not believing Li Xuanba's words.

"Okay." Li Xuanba raised his hand in surrender: "You should have found out that the last few poems I chanted have nothing to do with the questions made by Cai Xijiu, as you said, I am indeed worried that some scholars will be unwilling to lose the competition, but I am writing poems that are reckless, and I will not be able to write them if I set the topic." So, after Zheng Xingyang teased, he hurriedly chanted a few four-line poems to block everyone's mouths. ”

Before coming to Jiangdu, Fang Xuanling and the others might still believe what Li Xuanba said before, but after experiencing the incident between Li Zitong and Shen Faxing, they had already found that Li Xuanba was extremely smart, and he always prepared something great in peace.

The so-called precautionary measures, but that's it. (To be continued.) )
