When Liu Xu and Xu Jin'er came to the Runyuan on the shore of Yangxi Lake, the poetry meeting was in full swing, and the crowd gathered in the garden did not hear the sound of the new furnace chanting loudly.

Liu Xu found a Cui family steward, handed over the invitation, and explained his relationship with Cui Ye. The steward led Liu Xu and quickly found the warm hall where Cui Ye was, the warm hall was a huge open hall, but everyone didn't seem to feel cold at all, thinking that there must be a earth dragon underneath.

Liu Xu saw a large group of young literati chatting and writing poems there.

Cui Ye was also chatting with a few young literati.

Liu Xu and Xu Jin'er saw a lot of people, and they wanted to meet again later, but they didn't want Cui Ye to have sharp eyes, so they saw Liu Xu's arrival from a distance.

Cui Ye greeted him with a smile and said with a smile: "Second brother, you are finally here, ah, my brother and sister are also here, please come inside!" ”

Xu Jin'er saw that they were all men, and she had a lot of inconveniences in the past, so she sued Cui Ye and went to Zeyuan not far away, and went to Ren Yuyan and other sisters to meet.

Zeyuan is the property of Ren Yuyan's family and Ji Wei's family, and there is also a poetry meeting tonight. Ren Yuyan, Ning Xin'er, Yuan Wanqing and many other good sisters of Xu Jin'er gathered at the poetry meeting in Zeyuan tonight.

Liu Xu didn't want to go in, he wanted to say hello to Cui Ye and leave.

But Cui Ye said: "The second brother, as the first talent in Qingzhou today, can't always stop participating in the gathering of literati!" The second brother never appeared at literati gatherings, nor did he write lyrics in front of all the literati, but now many people think that the second brother is suspected of deceiving the world and stealing his name! These young talents are all young talents in Qingzhou City, most of them are children of the Wang family, and there is no harm in the second brother dealing with them more. If the second brother can make the first word here today, it will be of great help to the second brother's reputation! These are all young people specially invited by the eldest brother to help you correct your name." Cui Ye paused, and said with a mysterious smile: "By the way, there is also someone you definitely want to see later!" If you don't want to see it, you can go yourself, hehe! ”

Liu Xu's heart moved: Who do you want to see? Yunzhu's beautiful figure suddenly appeared in Liu Xu's mind, could she also come? After thinking about it, when talented and beautiful people such as the Yangxi Poetry Club gather, it is normal for Yunzhu to come to help. But Cui Ye was right, and he really wanted to see her. If you want to leave, you are really reluctant.

However, Liu Xu said in his heart: When it comes to others saying that they are deceiving the world and stealing their reputation, they are really right, and the words they do are all plagiarized by themselves. I have always been reluctant to appear at the gathering of literati talents, because I am afraid that others will test me, and I am afraid that my skills will be exposed as soon as I take the exam! But now that Liu Xu has reached this point, he can only catch the ducks on the shelves! If someone knows that they are plagiarizing, they will be ruined! Besides, Cui Ye also has good intentions towards himself, I am afraid that he specially arranged this matter tonight, and wants to make a good word for himself to correct his name!

Thinking of this, Liu Xu smiled bitterly: "The eldest brother is kind and the younger brother understands it, so the younger brother will go in with the eldest brother to meet all the talents." "Alas, let's see the tricks when the time comes, it's a big deal to plagiarize the good words of the First Lantern Festival, Liu Xu said in his heart. In fact, from the bottom of his heart, Liu Xu stayed, and he really looked forward to seeing Yunzhu.

Liu Xu followed Cui Ye into the warm hall, Liu Xu did not let Cui Ye introduce himself, if Cui Ye introduced himself, I am afraid that people will come to him to compete, it will be too difficult to deal with. Liu Xu came here mainly to meet Yunzhu later. Liu Xu asked Cui Ye to take care of himself, and he wandered around the crowd at will.

After wandering around for a while, Liu Xu saw a cluster of people there who seemed to be trying poetry.

Liu Xu walked to the side of the group of people, and saw a young scholar in a light green brocade cotton robe closing his eyes and pondering.

After a while, the scholar suddenly opened his eyes and said loudly: "Yes, Sun Mou will make the first "Partridge Heaven" to Yongmei, please comment!" ”

When Liu Xu saw this group of literati, he was comparing poems with each other with the theme of Mei.

The young scholar opened his mouth and said:

"The eternal night is frozen and the waves are frozen, and the branches are cold. Ying Gu deliberately spread the news of spring, and Mengqi was tired of cuckoos without a trace.

The heart is not cold, and the calyx is crippled first. Floating clouds cut off and looked at Chang'an. It can be known that in the spring, there is a fragrance full of fragrance. ”

When the people behind the young scholar heard this, they couldn't help but praise loudly! Liu Xu listened to it, and I have to say that this word is still quite atmospheric and expressive.

This is another young scholar dressed in a purple satin robe, who also frowned, and said loudly: "There is also a song below, and I will make the first "Linjiang Immortal", please comment."

At this time, Liu Xu found that this group of people was originally divided into two groups, and there was a group of people standing behind each of the two young scholars. It seems that these two young scholars are the main pillars of their own group of people, and they were pushed out to fight in the ring. Liu Xu couldn't help but be interested when he saw the two groups of talented people competing, and he watched it with great interest.

I saw the purple-robed scholar chanting loudly:

"The green calyx is green and white, the fragrance is only slanted, and the clear face is beautiful. Fame is recognized by appreciation, appreciating poets.

The cold will be far away, the rich charm will listen to the flowers, and the new makeup and the old testament should be flawless. The moon soul leaves a snow shadow, and the dew is in the morning glow. ”

The scholars behind the purple-robed scholar also applauded. When Liu Xu heard it, he also felt that this word was also full of charm, and it was also good.

For a while, both sides commented on and praised the lyrics of the talented people they supported, and criticized the shortcomings of each other's lyrics.

The two sides insisted on their own words, and the dispute was endless, and it was difficult to judge for a while.

Liu Xu couldn't help but be bored when he looked at it, and turned around and walked away at the moment, and happened to meet Cui Ye and two young scholars, walking this way.

Cui Ye said with a smile: "The second brother looks at the words of the two, whose words are better?" By the way, the second brother is afraid that he still doesn't know him, the one in the light green robe is Sun Yu from Yunmen Academy, and the purple brocade robe is Li Jiang from the state school, all of them are famous talents in Qingzhou, and their reputations are equal, so they are only below the second brother. If the second brother does not participate in this year's exam, I am afraid that this year's exam will be selected among the two! ”

Liu Xu said with a smile: "These two lyrics are good, and the little brother is difficult to distinguish!" ”

At this time, the two brocade-clothed young men who came with Cui Ye asked with a smile, "Liulang, who is this?" ”

Cui Ye patted his head and said with a smile: "Ah, it's wrong, I forgot to introduce it to the three of you." Second brother, these are the two Zhong brothers of the Zhong Mansion, Brother Jing Qian and Brother Wei Kun. Two Zhong brothers, this is the righteous brother under the alliance, Liu Xu and Liu Yunkai! ”

When Liu Xu heard that it was the Zhong Mansion, one of the four major families in Qingzhou, he didn't dare to slack off at the moment, and he was busy stepping forward to greet him, and the Zhong brothers were also busy returning the ceremony.

After a while, Zhong Weikun, the second eldest of the two Zhong brothers, suddenly seemed to have pondered something, and asked out loud: "Brother Liu is the first talent in Qingzhou, Liu Xu?" ”

Liu Xu hurriedly said modestly: "Brother Weikun, don't laugh at the little brother, what kind of first talent, you can't be fooled!" ”

The Zhong brothers, the eldest Zhong Jingqian is calm and calm, and the second Zhong Weikun is free and easy, and he is familiar with people. As soon as the second Zhong Weikun heard that Liu Xu was the first talent, he became interested at the moment, and pulled Liu Xu to talk about this and that, as if he was already very familiar with Liu Xu. One will ask Liu Xu what masterpieces he has tonight, and the other will ask Liu Xu whether Liu Xu's soju and stir-fry were found from that ancient book. Zhong Weikun and Cui Ye are world friends, and they are familiar with each other, Zhong Weikun once heard Cui Ye say that the stir-fry and soju secret skills in his restaurant and wine shop were all found by Liu Xu from a lost ancient book.

Liu Xu has always liked to associate with people with straightforward surnames, and when he saw Zhong Weikun's straightforward cuteness, he was also happy and had a good conversation with him.

There were bursts of laughter outside the warm hall, and as soon as the curtain was lifted, a few young men in brocade clothes came in.

Cui Ye couldn't help but feel a little unhappy on his face, and muttered, "Why is he here." However, the unhappiness on Cui Ye's face was just fleeting, and he hurriedly got up to greet the brocade boy who was the leader, and laughed loudly: "Hehe, Wei Shao is well-informed, I know that Yun Xing will come to perform later, and he actually found here." ”

"Liulang, this is not right for you, how can you not notify Tang of such a beautiful thing!" The brocade-clothed boy said with a smile.

Cui Ye said with a smile: "Wei Shao must have a lot of beautiful things tonight, how dare Ye disturb you casually!" ”

The two of them laughed out loud after speaking!

Cui Ye dealt with the brocade-clothed boy and let him take care of himself, and then returned to Liu Xu and the others.

Liu Xu listened to the conversation between the two and was also happy to be sure that Yunzhu was coming. Liu Xu heard that the boy in brocade seemed to be called Tang Wei, I don't know why Cui Ye didn't want to see him? Cui Ye didn't say anything at the moment, and Liu Xu didn't want to ask.

However, Liu Xu didn't ask, but someone couldn't bear to ask, Zhong Weikun also saw Cui Ye's impatient expression when he saw Tang Wei just now, and asked at the moment: "The Tang family is becoming more and more rampant now, and the kid surnamed Tang has also become more and more arrogant recently, the sixth brother can't look at that kid, or I'll find a fault and humiliate him later." ”

Cui Ye said in a deep voice: "No matter how rampant the Tang family is, I don't dare to be rampant in the Cui family now, I just can't get used to Tang Wei's kid." Cui Ye turned his head to Liu Xu and said, "Second brother, do you know who made the trouble about the last time you were imprisoned for selling soju?" It's Tang Wei, this kid! ”

Liu Xu said in his heart: It turned out that Tang Wei was a ghost, no wonder he had so much energy. However, with his current ability, he is not enough to do anything with him, he wants to take revenge, but he is powerless, Liu Xu has to sigh helplessly! Unexpectedly, Liu Xu had the idea of mastering greater strength.

"It turns out that he also framed Erlang, Erlang don't worry, there is a chance for my brother to find you a field!" Zhong Weikun heard Cui Ye say that Tang Wei had framed Liu Xu, and he couldn't help but feel angry for Liu Xu.

Liu Xu hurriedly thanked Zhong Weikun for his kindness.

The eldest Zhong Jingqian was steady and said to the three of them: "Erlang's revenge must be avenged, but you must wait for the opportunity, don't act rashly." Now Tang Wei's uncle Tang Ling is an official in the court, and his daughter has just been elected as the side concubine of the current prince, the Tang family is gaining momentum, so don't provoke easily. ”

Only then did Liu Xu understand that it was no wonder that with the strength of the Cui family and the Zhong family, they were still afraid of the Tang family, it turned out that there were people in the court. There are not only people in the court, but also people in the palace. It seems that his revenge is really difficult to get revenge easily!
