Chapter 7 Gambling Poetry!
"Tsk, it's really a reckless man, I really don't understand, what are you doing here? Appreciating literati paintings and calligraphy? Or do you want to recite poetry and paint? Ha ha! After speaking, not only Zhang Yan, but even the literati and scholars who were watching on the side also looked at them with a smile on their faces, obviously, Zhao Long's words just now made everyone present have no good impression of them. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Coming to such an elegant place, it is natural to have a glimpse of the demeanor of celebrities and scholars, and it doesn't hurt to compose a poem if you are so interested" At this moment, Lu Chen got up and said lightly.
This sentence obviously made Zhang Yan stunned, and then, he saw Zhang Yan laughing, "You write poems? Haha, don't be funny, hahaha" The teenagers who followed Zhang Yan also couldn't help laughing.
Lu Chen's face was surprisingly calm, and he continued, "Then I don't know if Brother Yan dares to follow him and write a poem each, and compare the literary style?" ”
Hearing Lu Chen's words, the stunned on Zhang Yan's face had turned into disbelief, he didn't know what kind of madness this Lu family son had today, not only did he change his previous vulgarity, but also fought poetry with him. However, immediately saw that Zhang Yan also smiled and said, "Since Brother Chen has such Yaxing, I should accompany you, but you can't let others do it for you" He was afraid that Brother Lu Chen would come to help, and when the time came, even if it was ten, he would not be able to compare to this long-known talent.
Hearing Zhang Yan's condition, Lu Chen nodded with a smile on his face, he naturally knew what this Zhang Yan was afraid of.
Seeing Lu Chen but agreed, Zhang Yan immediately said, "Okay, let's start now, Xiao Er, take two sets of pen, ink, paper, and inkstone!" ”
"Wait!" But I saw Lu Chen suddenly stop him with a voice, "Brother Yan, this bet has no lottery heads, then it's not fun, how about we add some lottery heads?" ”
"Of course, as long as you don't regret it then!" Zhang Yan said fiercely, he couldn't figure out what Lu Chen's idea was, but as long as he was writing poetry, he was still very confident in himself.
Hearing him agree, he saw Lu Chen smiling and said, "You don't need too many lottery heads, just bet five hundred taels of gold, I don't know what Brother Yan wants?" ”
Hearing Lu Chen's words, there was a silence in the entire Sage Pavilion hall, and everyone gasped, even the meat balls behind him looked at Lu Chen with shocked faces, if the five hundred taels of gold were lost, they probably wouldn't have to go out for a year.
Looking at Lu Chen's calm smile, Zhang Yan was a little hesitant, after all, this amount is too big, although these children of the Wenchen family are richer than Lu Chen, the people of the General's Mansion, but after all, they are only juniors, and this five hundred taels is not a small amount for them.
Seeing the yin and yang on Zhang Yan's face, Lu Chen laughed softly, "Why, our eldest son Zhang doesn't have the guts?" Forget it, meatball, let's go."
"Wait, I'll bet with you!" At this time, I saw Zhang Yan gritting his teeth and saying word by word.
The two didn't make any written evidence, however, Lu Chen was not worried about Zhang Yan's denial afterwards, after all, there were still so many people watching here, and when the time came, if Zhang Yan really breached the contract, then his reputation would really be ruined. For a man of letters, reputation is of paramount importance.
"In order to prevent you from preparing in advance, I will set the scope of the poem for you, and you will set the range for me!" Zhang Yan was still a little worried.
Lu Chen still nodded very calmly, and said secretly in his heart: Fortunately, when I was in middle school in the previous life, I memorized all those Tang poems and Song lyrics. At that time, it was because of my mother's persecution, but I didn't expect to use it now.
"Well, since you are from the military, let's write a poem outside the Saiwai, what do you think?" Zhang Yan said with a smile, it seemed that he was taking care of Lu Chen, but in fact, he knew that Lu Chen had been living in the General's Mansion since he was a child, and he had never been to Biansai at all.
Lu Chen didn't bother with him, and said lightly, "Okay, you can just do it, a stick of incense, and in the end, ask the pavilion master seniors of the Sage Pavilion to be the referee for us, okay?" ”
Seeing that Zhang Yan agreed, Lu Chen immediately closed his eyes and looked seriously thinking, while Zhang Yan was also walking around the hall and began to brew.
At this time, the hall was unusually silent, and everyone looked at the two with great interest, not knowing what verses they could compose.
"Which of the two of them do you think will win in the end?" A very faint voice of inquiry rang out in the crowd.
"Of course it's Zhang Yan, this Zhang Yan is also well-known even in this Sage Pavilion, and has written a lot of poems, as for this Lu Chen, don't forget, he is a well-known gentleman, how can he compare with Zhang Yan?"
"That is, when you just look at his companion, you look at it as a vulgar person."
Gradually, there was a lot of discussion in the crowd, but no one was optimistic about Lu Chen, in fact, they couldn't be blamed, it could only be said that the reputation of Lu Chen and others was too stinky.
At least in the eyes of the literati and scholars of this Sage Pavilion, Lu Chen and the others were not qualified to be compared with Zhang Yan and the others.
Listening to the discussions around him, Zhao Long's face was full of anger, and he was about to rush up to find these people to theorize, but he was pulled by the meat ball. If you let this guy say a few more words, a few of them will really be completely famous, in this Sage Pavilion every day gathered from all over the literati and scholars, once a few of them make some jokes here, at that time, their reputation will really resound all over the country.
Soon the time for a stick of incense will pass, at this time Zhang Yan's poems are almost finished, but Lu Chen is still thinking about it with his eyes closed, after Zhang Yan finished writing the last word, he looked at Lu Chen, and when he saw that Lu Chen still hadn't started his pen, he immediately sneered a few times with relief.
At this moment, I saw Lu Chen open his eyes and quickly write on the paper. The speed was very fast, and in just a few moments, Lu Chen put down the pen in his hand, raised his head and smiled, "I'm done, please ask the pavilion master to judge."
Zhang Yan still nodded with a sneer, and said to the people of the Sage Pavilion on the side, "Brother Annoyance, invite Master Yang"
The people on the side immediately walked towards the sage's attic, and it didn't take long to see this man coming down from the upper floor, and beside him was an old man, who came downstairs and greeted everyone very politely.
This Master Yang, Lu Chen still heard of it, it is said that he was also a very talented and upright genius back then, and his poems were praised by the saint many times. But because of the villain's false accusation, he was banned from reciting poetry and painting for life, and he was disheartened, so he came here to open this Sage Pavilion. Until today, it has developed into one of the three major restaurants in the capital, and it is a must-visit place for literati and artists.
Of course, Lu Chen will not believe this set of arguments, at least there is no backer in this capital, and it is impossible for this Sage Pavilion to develop to what it is today, but he doesn't care about these Lu Chen, he just needs this upright pavilion master to fairly judge the verses made by the two.
