Chapter 51: The Third Day of Confusion (7)

In the entire hall, there was silence, and the guests present had different expressions, including those who were stunned, shocked, and frowned, and so on, I have to say that the weight contained in what Xie An said was too heavy.

As the saying goes, good things don't go out, evil things go thousands of miles, on the night of the Shangyuan Festival, the eldest grandson of the eldest grandson family, the eldest grandson Xiangyu, and the young secretary of the Great Prison Temple, Xie An, didn't the guests here know at all?

Not necessarily!

Otherwise, when Fang Cai Changsun Jing said that he wanted Ziji's daughter Changsun Xiangyu to marry the eighth prince Li Xian, how could the expressions of the guests present be so strange?

But no one would have thought that Xie An, who was the party concerned, would actually say that this matter would be broken, which is simply slapping the face of the Changsun family......

Coincidentally, the eyes of all the guests in the hall invariably looked at the other party, the eldest grandson Xiangyu "" The novel chapter is updated the fastest.

For an ordinary woman, most of them are ashamed and angry at this time, but what is a little unexpected is that after Xie An broke out in public such an earth-shattering scene, the face of the eldest grandson Xiangyu was still unshocked, and there was no ripple like a fǎngfo stagnant water.

Also, Bijing has never cared about this kind of reputation, so why would she feel embarrassed or angry because of Xie An's words?

Even, in her slightly turned beautiful eyes, there was a faint look of inscrutableness, and she looked at Xie An who was confronting her father in the distance with a smile.

That guy, how dare you say it......

Shime order a child with a kid in her belly......

Giggle......

Ignoring the strange gazes from all directions, the corners of the eldest grandson Xiangyu's mouth vaguely raised a little smile, fǎngfo, enjoying this moment very much.

Even, when she saw her father's face flushed with anger, the curvature of the corners of her mouth. Uncontrollably raised.

Ahh......h

The eldest grandson, Xiangyu, looked at his father who Ziji hated over the years with a playful gaze, and it was undeniable that she really had an extremely happy gǎnjiào in her heart right now. As far as fǎngfo is concerned, the grievances of the past years have been swept away today.

But in addition to being happy, the eldest grandson Xiangyu looked at Xie An with a little blame and worry.

It's not that she blames Xie An for talking about the matter between the two of them openly, she just blames Xie An for doing things without leaving a way back.

Thinking about it, Fang Cai Changsun Jing didn't want to suppress the fènnu in his heart, and when he heard this sentence at this time, no matter how high his cultivation was, I am afraid he could not turn a blind eye.

A sucker!

Wouldn't it be better to leave some back roads to take it slowly?

The eldest grandson Xiangyu secretly pinched a cold sweat for Xie An in his heart. According to the agreement between her and Li Xian, during today's banquet, she can't give Xie An any hints, including eyes, which is why she has been méiyou since she sat down.

Why do you want to do it so badly?

Because I don't want to regret it anymore, I don't want the incident like Su Wan to happen again......

As if he had heard the heart of the eldest grandson Xiangyu, Xie An said secretly in his heart.

I have to say that Xie An is out of the way this time. said that Shime also wants to marry the eldest grandson Xiangyu.

A year ago, although Su Wan was hindered by the kindness of the Lu family in Nangong Mansion. Reluctantly married Lu Fan, but in the end, it was also Xie Anzijiméiyou who was to redeem it, at that time, he only cared about being angry, and left Nangong Mansion in anger. Anything else, shime are méiyou do......

Later, when he thought back about this incident, Xie An regretted it later, because he found that he could actually save the matter.

Su Wan, the daughter of the Su family. Gentle and lovely, but not an assertive person, to say something ugly, is that his ears are soft, and he doesn't know how to refuse, if that shihou can calm down and kidnap Su Wan's words......

Maybe Su Wan would feel a little angry at first, but in the end, most of them just let it go......

It's a pity that when Xie An mingbái this yidiǎn, Su Wan had already married into the Lu family of Nangong Mansion.

A lesson from the past, a teacher from the back, since the day he stepped into the door of the eldest grandson's house, Xie An secretly told Ziji that this time, no matter what, he must fight for it, and he can no longer watch his beloved woman marry a woman, for this, at all costs!

It is precisely because of this kind of thinking that Xie An broke out such heavy information without any scruples, and tried his best to do his best, although the eldest grandson Xiangyu would not be angry because of this kind of thing, but the eldest grandson family would regard him as an enemy because of this, but ...... So what?

"You...... You ......" Finger Xie An, Changsun Jing trembled angrily, just when he was about to teach this kid in front of him a hard lesson regardless of everything, Li Xian, who was sitting not far away, stood up, walked to Changsun Jing's side, gently put his arm on his hand, looked at Xie An, and said softly, "Lord Changsun, can this matter be handed over to Xiao Wang?" ”

After "......", the eldest grandson Jing glanced at Li Xian in confusion, then glared at Xie An fiercely, and returned to his seat.

After not taking a few steps, Changsun Jing was stunned, because he suddenly saw Ziji's daughter, and he saw something from Ziji's daughter's inexplicable gaze, fǎngfo.

Glancing at Li Xian, and then at Ziji's daughter Changsun Xiangyu, the anger on Changsun Jing's face slowly receded, he vaguely felt a kind of gǎnjiào, this banquet, it seems that there are some things that even he doesn't know.

Seeing the eldest grandson Jing sitting back in his seat, Li Xian shook his head with a smile, and after all the guests in the hall watched with bated breath, he turned to face Xie An, and said gently, "Xie Shaoqing, this kind of joke can't be made!" Even if Xie Shaoqing doesn't think about ziji, he has to think about the name of his daughter's family, right? ”

Xie An frowned, and was about to speak, but saw Li Xian raise his hand to stop him, and said solemnly, "A rare woman with good looks like Sister Xiangyu is naturally a bee and butterfly, Xiao Wang has no doubt that there will be a competition with Xiao Wang...... In this case, how about Xie Shaoqing and Xiao Wang make a bet? ”

"Here's the show!" In the distance, Prince Li Wei clenched his fists with a happy face.

Not far from the right side of his seat, Li Shou frowned slightly, and glanced at Wang Dan, the staff member beside him, and the eyes of the two couldn't help but show a little worry.

The entire hall was silent, and countless pairs of eyes looked directly at the confrontation between Xie An and Li Xian, including those who were worried, those who gloated, and those who watched the show.

Under the watchful eye, Xie An took a deep look at Li Xian. He frowned and said, "Bet on shime?" ”

Li Xian smiled slightly, stared at Xie An for a long time, suddenly changed his previous seriousness, and said with a smile, "[Bet on her]...... This kind of talk. Xiao Wang can't say it! Xiao Wang knew that Xie Shaoqing's eloquence was unparalleled, but he didn't want to be refuted by Xie Shaoqing here......"

Xie An was slightly stunned when he heard this, and glanced at Li Xian in surprise.

As Li Xian said, Xie An was just waiting for Li Xian to say something like [betting on Changsun Xiangyu], but he could use this to refute it, saying that Li Xian treated Changsun Xiangyu as a commodity, and there was no excuse for the so-called crime of wanting to add!

But to his surprise, Li Xian seemed to have expected this matter and broke the matter in advance. This made Xie An feel slightly embarrassed, and vaguely uneasy.

This guy ...... Not easy to deal with!

is worthy of the rumored eighth prince Li Xian, the most witty and intelligent of all the princes......

Thinking of this, Xie An secretly suppressed the cranky thoughts in his heart, and asked in a deep voice, "Your Highness said that you were laughing, how could Xie think that?" I wonder if His Highness interrupted the bet on shime? ”

"It's easy," chuckled. Li Xian slowly put away the smile on his face, and said with a serious face and a sonorous tone. If Xie Shaoqing wins, Xiao Wang will back down, and Xie Shaoqing will hold the beauty; If Xie Shaoqing loses, he will resign as Shaoqing of the Great Prison Temple...... As long as Xiao Wang is still alive for a day, Xie Shaoqing will not be allowed to set foot in the court as an official for the rest of his life! ”

As soon as the words of "......" came out, the whole hall was in an uproar. Even the crown prince Li Wei, who came to watch Li Xian and Xie An tear their faces, suddenly sank.

This guy is ......

The crown prince Li Wei, who is quite sensitive to political affairs, suddenly smelled a bit of conspiracy from it.

And the rest of the guests in the hall are even more discussed, bijing. The stakes are just too big.

Xie An is a shime person?

At a young age, he became the Shaoqing of the Great Prison Temple, and now he is preparing to step towards the six Shangshu and become a member of the Great Zhou Imperial Court, behind him, that is the entire Liangqiu family of the Donggong Mansion, and he is the leader of the Shaozhuang forces of the Great Zhou, and his future is unlimited.

However, if he made this bet, it meant that he would give up his bright future and would not be an official for the rest of his life......

What if Xie An wins, you might say?

But the problem is that in front of Xie An at this moment, it is Li Xian, the eighth prince whose intelligence is not inferior to that of the eldest grandson Xiangyu!

"Shime?" Xie An asked in a slightly hoarse voice.

A flash flashed in Li Xian's eyes

The silk color disappeared in a flash, and he looked at Xie An and said lightly, "Wencai!" Four books and five classics, hundreds of schools, as long as Xie Shaoqing can stump Xiao Wang, he will win! How is it? ”

"Competitive Literature?"

Among the guests, the faces of some people, such as the crown prince Li Wei, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Ruan Shaozhou, the king of Anping, Li Shou, and Liang Qiuwu, changed their faces greatly.

People who know Xie An's details are qingchu, Xie An's talent is not in the literary aspect, how can he be the opponent of Li Xian, who has been reading poetry and books since childhood and is proficient in the words of a hundred schools?

Don't bet!

Rao is crown prince Li Wei couldn't help but say so in his heart, bijing In his opinion, Xie An will undoubtedly lose in the test of literary talent, and in this case, he will lose a huge boost......

Also, how can Xie An, who resigned from his official position and was just white, help him deal with Li Xian, the eighth prince?

As for people like Ruan Shaozhou, Li Shou, and Liang Qiuwu who cared about Xie An, they were even more anxious in their hearts, and they couldn't wait to stop Xie An.

"How?" Li Xian asked again, his tone was a little heavier than Fang Cai, and there was a faint sense of persecution.

After a full stick of incense, the hall was silent, and the falling needles could be heard, and all the guests only saw the cold sweat on Xie An's forehead.

Finally, Xie An took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Okay! Just as His Highness said! ”

"Ann?" Liang Qiuwu looked at Ziji's husband in shock when he heard this, and was about to persuade him, but saw that Ziji's husband was more serious and serious than any shihou before, so he sighed secretly and stopped persuading.

Unexpectedly...... Agreed?

For the sake of a woman, you actually gamble with the good future of Ziji's life?

If you want to zhidào, this is a game that must be lost!

Not to mention that all the guests present were dumbfounded, even Li Xian was a little incredulous, and said in disbelief, "Xie Shaoqing should be ...... Do you really want to bet with Xiao Wang? Essay collection? ”

"Yes!" Xie An nodded calmly.

"Stupid!" In the distance, the crown prince Li Wei slammed the small table in front of him, got up and left the table, and walked away.

"Brother? Where are you going? The fifth prince Li Cheng asked in surprise.

Glancing at Xie An, Prince Li Wei showed a little annoyance in his eyes, and said coldly. "Still looking at shime? Let's go! With that, he brushed his sleeves away.

It is no wonder that in the eyes of the crown prince Li Wei, from the time when Xie An responded to the gambling contract proposed by Li Xian, Xie An's branch was abolished, and Bijing Xie An never won against Li Xian, the eighth prince who read poetry and books.

And for Xie An, who is white. Where is the value of shime wooing?

Some people may say that although Xie An lost his official position, he is still the grandson-in-law of the Donggong Mansion and the husband of Liang Qiuwu, but the key is that the crown prince Li Wei doesn't care about the Eastern Army at all!

Also, as one of the four towns in Jijing, Liang Qiuwu could not intervene in the battle for the throne between the princes at all, and the reason why the crown prince Li Wei had previously wooed Xie An. First, he was frightened by his younger brother Li Cheng, and he was in chaos, and secondly, Xie An was the Shaoqing of the Great Prison Temple and one of the three lieutenants of Gyeonggi, and once he lost these official positions, how could the grandson-in-law of a mere Donggong Mansion be worthy of his crown prince Li Wei personally wooing?

Following the crown prince Li Wei. The fifth prince Li Cheng, Guanglu Temple Qing Wenqin and other members of the crown prince Li Wei and his party also left one after another. Bijing They originally came just to watch a good show, and Wan Wan thought that the eighth prince Li Xian was so skilled that he instigated Xie An to accept such a harsh gambling contract.

Ignoring the departure of the crown prince Li Wei and the others, Li Xian still looked at Xie An intently, and said with a chuckle. "Xiao Wang's second brother, he doesn't seem to think that Xie Shaoqing nénggou has won over Xiao Wang in terms of literary talent! Xie Shaoqing is confident that he can win against Xiao Wang? ”

Xie An shook his head and said truthfully, "Méiyou! ”

As soon as these words came out, many guests in the hall shook their heads and left their seats. This made Changsun Jing inexplicable.

“méiyou?” A hint of discoloration flashed in Li Xian's eyes, and he looked at Xie An in surprise and asked, "Then why does Xie Shaoqing dare to respond to this matter?" ”

"Because ......" glanced at the eldest grandson Xiangyu in the distance, Xie An said indifferently, "If you bet, there is still a glimmer of hope, otherwise, even a glimmer of hope is méiyou......"

"Just for a glimmer of hope? Gambling on the future of your life? Is it worth it? Li Xian asked inexplicably.

"Worth it?" Xie An grinned, glanced at the eldest grandson Xiangyu in the distance, and said self-deprecatingly, "Even if it is an unbearable person like Xie Mou, he doesn't want to disappoint the person who has hoped for me...... If you give up if you don't even fight for it, even I, ziji, will look down on ziji! ”

"......I see," muttered to himself, Li Xian nodded, suddenly took a deep breath, and said, "In that case, Xie Shaoqing should pay attention, Xiao Wang asked ten questions, and Xie Shaoqing only needed to answer six of them...... [Those who are sincere in their intentions do not deceive themselves.] Such as a foul smell, such as lustful, this is called self-humility. Therefore, a gentleman must be cautious of his independence. Where does this come from? ”

Rao is Xie An had been prepared for a long time, and when he heard this question, he was also speechless, no matter how he racked his brains, he couldn't answer it.

After waiting for half a pillar of incense, Li Xian shook his head slightly, and said softly, "It seems that Xie Shaoqing can't think of it...... The second article, [Su Yin is a monster, and there will be a description in later generations, and I will do it.] The gentleman follows the way, and gives up halfway, and I can do it. This, where does it come from? ”

"......" Xie An opened his mouth, speechless, sweat pouring from his forehead.

For more than an hour, Li Xian successively listed ten questions, some of which were simple and some of which were difficult, however, Xie An couldn't answer any of them, so he stood in a daze for an hour.

During this period, every time Li Xian asked a question, some of the guests in the hall left, and even in the end, even Xun Zheng, Li Shou, Wang Dan and other people close to Xie An couldn't bear to look at it anymore, quietly left the table, and left, so that when Li Xian asked the last question, only Liang Qiu Wu, Changsun Jing, Ji Hong, Ruan Shaozhou, these few people remained, and even Changsun Xiangyu didn't know when to leave quietly.

As the so-called book is used when it is used, it is Xie An, who stood stupidly for an hour, and regretted it in his heart before he went to read those so-called sage classics.

"Xie Shaoqing, I haven't answered a single one......" After waiting for a long time, Li Xian shook his head and said softly.

Xie An opened his mouth and glanced at the seat where the eldest grandson Xiangyu was before, but saw that she was no longer there.

Are you disappointed in Ziji?

Bitter and self-deprecating, Xie An shook his head, raised his head and said to Li Xian, "I lost...... I'll keep my promise! After saying that, he silently turned around and walked towards the outside of the house.

"Ann?" Liang Qiuwu immediately stood up and grabbed Xie An's sleeve.

saw Xie An gently patting the back of her hand and whispering, "Dance, let me be alone for a while......"

"......" Liang Qiuwu opened her mouth, wanted to speak and stopped, looking at the painful look in her husband's eyes, she silently let go of the right hand that was pulling him, and after standing in a daze for a while, she brushed her sleeves away.

Before leaving, she glared at Li Xian fiercely, her eyes were fierce, like a tiger.

"What a fierce look, it is worthy of being a woman who has become the fourth sister-in-law of Xiao Wang......" With a wry smile, Li Xian sighed lightly and returned to Changsun Jing's side.

Although today's banquet was unhappily dispersed, it can be seen that Li Xian frustrated Xie An hard, and the eldest grandson Jing was still quite happy in his heart, and when he saw Li Xian coming, he got up and said with a smile, "Your Highness has won!" ”

"Win?" Li Xian smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "No, it was Xiao Wang who lost...... Since the moment Xie An made this bet, Xiao Wang has lost ......" As he spoke, he bowed deeply to Changsun Jing and arched his hand, "Lord Changsun, then Xie An may not be a good son-in-law, but he is at least a good husband...... He is willing to give up a good future for the sake of some hope, which even Xiao Wang can't do...... No, it should be said that the méiyou people in this room did it! Don't you think that the eldest grandson is the best candidate for Xiangyu's sister's husband? ”

Changsun Jing opened his mouth and bowed his head slightly, thoughtfully.

Beside him, Ruan Shaozhou asked in surprise, "Since His Highness had already lost at that time, why do you still have to ask ten questions?" Not méiyou necessarily either? ”

"It's really necessary, otherwise, how could Sister Xiangyu leave the table early?" Li Xian smiled bitterly and laughed at himself and said, "It's just that Xiao Wang is unwilling!" It's just to vent your anger......"

Ruan Shaozhou was only dumbfounded when he heard this, then shook his head and said with a wry smile, "His Royal Highness Xian is really ...... Xie An's kid probably thought that Ziji had lost, if he did something stupid......"

"No," Li Xian smiled and sighed, "Someone will comfort him......

At the same time, on the street not far from the eldest grandson's mansion, in the midst of the heavy rain, Xie An walked towards his mansion in a daze.

Suddenly, he was stunned, because he saw that at the corner not far away, the eldest grandson Xiangyu was holding a delicate small umbrella, and the majestic rain wet her body, making her as beautiful as a hibiscus out of the water.

"Do you want to fight an umbrella, Gongzi Xie? Cluck, cluck, cluck, ......" (To be continued.) )
