In the cabin, many talented people gathered together and chanted poems.

Others thought with a bitter look on their faces. I saw others constantly splashing ink on the paper. But he was so anxious that he was sweating, scratching his ears and cheeks, but there was still no ink in his chest.

Sheets of rice paper with poems written on them were sent to the platform in the center. The Jiangning celebrities above took over the audit. If there was a little better, they would nod with a smile on their faces, stroke their beards and say, "Very good!" Then he handed it over to the attendants beside him, who selected the words that were worthy of the eye, and sent them to the second floor. It is decided by Mr. Wenshan and Prince Ning.

If you encounter something that you don't understand, these examiners look like we can't do it. In the eyes of these students who were about to cry, they casually threw away the lyrics. And then I still smile and encourage and say something like reading well. And invited him to come back next year.

One poem after another, floating on the stage like snowflakes. There are very few who are selected to be sent to the second floor.

Some of the lyrics are brilliantly written, but they have no depth. The feelings are only superficial, and there are some feelings of moaning without illness. And more poems are made randomly. Not only is there no literary brilliance, but even the most basic liberal arts and sciences are not understood.

Looking at these bad works that are enough to make people laugh, these examiners still maintain a good attitude. took the lyrics very politely, and then forcibly endured the vomiting **, looked at his student in front of him against his will, smiled and nodded, and then his eyes rolled white, and he threw the poem aside.

The whole cabin was a busy scene.

Standing in the back corner, Lu Heng looked at the familiar scene in front of him. I was amazed, it really looked like I had taken the exam before.

Putting down the bottom-up teacup, Liu Qingqing on the side gently filled him with tea.

After the woman put down the teapot, she said to Lu Heng with a smile, "Why doesn't Uncle go up and show it?" ”

Lu Heng took a sip of tea, shook his head and smiled.

"Why didn't Uncle speak?" The woman smiled lightly, her beautiful eyes looking at him, waiting for his answer.

Lu Heng smiled slightly, shrugged his shoulders, and sighed: "Hey, if I want to participate." Then there is nothing to do with these people! ”

Liu Qingqing looked at Lu Heng's serious appearance. I was stunned for a moment. After reacting, she burst out laughing, her beautiful eyes rolled at him, and she chuckled and said, "Uncle bragging!" ”

Looking at Liu Qingqing's expression of joy and hatred, Lu Heng laughed out loud and was in a good mood.

It took half an hour for the preliminary results to be selected.

As Zhang Wenshan expected, among the ten places, Jiangnan students accounted for only three. The remaining seven are all occupied by students from Tokyo.

One of the Tokyo students, gently shook the folding fan, glanced at it disdainfully, and the depressed Jiangnan Xuezi around him sneered: "Cut, I thought that when I came to participate in the Qinhuai Poetry Club, I could meet a decent opponent, but I didn't expect that it was all some embroidered pillows!" ”

The other Tokyo geniuses who came with him touched the two mustaches on their lips, nodded in agreement with a smile: "Yes, it's all a bunch of straw bales." Hmph, what else can you do besides visiting the Qinglou and drinking flower wine. Tsk, I didn't expect the Qin Huai Poetry Conference to be attended by such a group of people. It seems that there is no need for this Qinhuai Poetry Club to continue! ”

As soon as this remark came out, many students glared angrily.

However, these two talented people from Tokyo smiled indifferently, and without looking at those Jiangnan students at all, they threw off their sleeves and walked towards the second floor.

"It's too much, it's unreasonable!"

Such wild words and arrogant attitudes simply do not take the study of saints into account. It's just disgusting! ”

"Hmph, if I had inspiration today, how could I allow this guy to be arrogant here!"

……

After the Tokyo genius left, those Jiangnan students angrily hurled nonsense at the heels of others. The anger in their tones and the righteousness in their expressions make them seem to be the representatives of the Great Zhou literary world.

Lu Heng looked at the look of these Jiangnan students, and couldn't help shaking his head and smiling!

Hey, it's really a useless scholar.

These students usually don't know how to work hard, but at this time, they don't even have the courage to confront others. It was only after the people had left that a group of people pretended to be righteous. I don't know, I thought the two people who went upstairs were the enemies of the whole people.

Lu Heng came today, just to accompany Liu Qingqing out to see the excitement. He had no intention of getting involved. Now, the excitement is almost over.

Seeing those students hugging the door, he was ready to take Liu Qingqing home.

At this point, it's almost time. It was late at night outside, and the laughter and play of the women in the flower boat had gradually thinned out. Outside, you can only hear the sound of waves crashing against the side of the ship as the wind blows.

In the cabin, I don't know how many times the candles in the lantern have been changed. Occasionally, a breeze blew into the cabin, and the candles in the lanterns flickered gently. The dim light flickered on and off.

"It's late at night, let's go back!"

Lu Heng yawned and rubbed his sour eyes. Turning his head, he said to Liu Qingqing beside him with a smile.

Liu Qingqing turned his head, saw the sleepiness on Lu Heng's face, and chuckled: "Today is the most prosperous gathering in the Jiangnan literary world, why is my uncle like this?" ”

Lu Heng smiled, picked up the teacup, and wanted to take a sip to dispel sleepiness. only to find that the tea in the teacup had already been cold.

Yi Xing put down the teacup, he shook his head with a smile and said, "It's really not interesting, look at the noisy appearance of those students, just like those pawn vendors in the market!" Hey, if I had known this, I wouldn't have come! ”

Liu Qingqing pursed her lips and smiled, she got up and went to pick up a new pot of tea. While adding water to the teacup, he chuckled and said, "If uncle's words are heard by those students, I'm afraid it will be another storm!" ”

Lu Heng picked up the hot tea and blew it for a while. smiled and said, "I'm familiar with you, so I'm talking about this." I don't even bother to pay attention to those people! ”

"Flim Flam!" Liu Qingqing glanced at him with disgust, and sowed a charming demeanor.

After Lu Heng finished drinking tea, Liu Qingqing pulled up her skirt and stood up. After glancing at the second floor, he chuckled and said, "In that case, let's go home!" ”

She had just taken a step, but she stopped. said with some regret: "It's just that in previous years, at the end of the poetry fair, there would be an Oiran on stage." I'm afraid I won't be able to see it today! ”

Lu Heng, who had just stood up, heard this. , shook his head with a smile, then sighed and sat down again.

"In that case, why don't we wait?" Lu Heng looked at Liu Qingqing with an inquiring tone.

"Isn't my uncle sleepy? Why do you want to stay? Liu Qingqing turned her head, looked at Lu Heng in surprise, and asked puzzled.

Lu Heng turned his head to look at the second floor, then turned his head and looked at Liu Qingqing, who was standing in front of him, wearing a light blue trimmed skirt, like a fairy, and said tightly: "Well, since there is an Oiran on the stage, it doesn't hurt to take a look?" ”

After that, Lu Heng's heart was filled with thoughts of teasing her. smashed his mouth, shook his head and said, "I almost missed the beautiful scenery of the good day!" ”

Lu Heng raised his head, smiled faintly, and winked at Liu Qingqing.

After being seen through his thoughts, a blush appeared on Liu Qingqing's charming face.

She kept her head down, her pretty face pink. In a subtle voice, he said, "Oh, since my uncle wants to see it." Then the concubine will accompany her uncle! After she said this, she lowered her head and avoided Lu Heng's gaze. Pursed his lips and smiled, sat down gently, and lowered his head deeply. I was afraid of facing Lu Heng's smiling eyes.

The breeze blew into the cabin, the candlelight flickered on and off, and the strands of hair on Liu Qingqing's sideburns were a little messy.

She stretched out her fingers and gently curled her hair. Inadvertently, he showed a faint pink color on his pretty face.

Not long after, Prince Ning's guard, Zhanxiong, walked down with a few guards. He first searched the crowd.

Then I saw Lu Heng sitting with his sister-in-law, drinking tea and laughing. Zhanxiong's eyes, like unsheathed swords, suddenly lit up.

After striding over, he smiled and hugged his fists at Lu Heng and said, "Master Lu, please go up!" ”

Lu Heng turned his head and smiled helplessly at Liu Qingqing.

Liu Qingqing glanced at him secretly, lowered her head and pursed her lips and snickered.

After following Zhanxiong to the second floor, Lu Heng stood outside the crowd and waved at Prince Ning, who was looking here. Didn't go in. Instead, he took Liu Qingqing to find a place and sat down.

"If Childe has any orders, just let the exhibition know!" Zhanxiong also knew the relationship between Lu Heng and Ning Wangye, and at this time, seeing that he just said hello to Ning Wangye, he sat down. He didn't mind either. Just asked Lu Heng with a smile.

Lu Heng thought for a while, and then said to Zhanxiong: "I'm a little hungry, do Zhan's guards know that there is food there?" ”

Zhan's guards didn't expect this Lu Gongzi to make this request. was stunned for a moment, and then beckoned one of his subordinates and said, "Go and give Lu Gongzi those snacks and drinks!" ”

"That's it, thank you!" Lu Heng hugged his fists and said with a smile to Zhanxiong.

"Childe is polite!" Zhanxiong hurriedly bowed and returned the salute.

After Zhanxiong and the others left, Lu Heng sat at the last table, stuffing a large piece of snack into his mouth while looking at the front, those students who were shaking their heads were nervously chanting poems in front of Zhang Wenshan.

And Zhang Wenshan's old man seemed to owe someone a hundred taels of silver. Always frowning, his face is a little unsightly.

Beside him, Liu Qingqing carefully filled Lu Heng with tea.

She put down the teapot and watched her uncle beside her eat without any image. Bow your head and snicker.

After a few rounds of answers, the talents are also getting better.

After the maids served the drinks. The talents borrowed the wine, and the sound of the piano played by the women next to them. Gradually showed their talent beyond others.

As long as Zhang Wenshan throws out a question, there will be talented people who will soon pick it up.

For a time, the staggered and brilliant literature was flying.

Among these people, Lu Heng was a little surprised to see that Su Zhengwen was also among them.

At this time, he was talking happily to a scholar in a purple luxurious robe. It's a lot of fun.

And the scholar who was wearing a purple robe with a white face was drinking and chatting and laughing with Su Zhengwen. The two seem to get along very well.

Lu Heng just retracted his gaze, but he seemed to have discovered something. Then he glanced at Su Zhengwen, who was standing with the genius of Tokyo.

Well, he's on the wrong side!
