Tang Lin interjected: "Lord Wang, the time for the game has arrived, let's start, shall we?" ”

Li Ke nodded, turned around and walked to the front viewing seat. The princess glanced at Xiao Jiading several times, and her eyes were full of approval. followed the King of Shu over.

Huang Shiyun and Su Yunxia gathered around at this time, the two daughters were full of excitement, Huang Shiyun said: "You are awesome!" With one enemy and two enemies, not only wins, but also writes the best poems, now, it's hard if you don't want to be famous! ”

Xiao Jiading just said lightly: "It's nothing." ”

Su Yunxia said: "You hurry up, they are all over!" ”

Xiao Jiading glanced at the seats of the ten people selected in front of him, everyone else had already sat down, and his place was still empty, everyone was looking at him, so he nodded and walked over slowly. glanced at the couch and muttered, "Why is it so dirty?" ”

He paused, picked up the golden folding fan that Zhong Wenbo lost to him, opened it with a bang, looked at it, and saw that the golden fan was painted with a picture of two magpies climbing branches. Generally speaking, a man's fan is either a landscape, or a poem, or a pine, cypress, tiger, sika deer or something, and few people draw this kind of mandarin duck picture that the daughter's family likes to express love. couldn't help but squint at Zhong Wenbo and snorted: "What an embroidered pillow little white face!" ”

Zhong Wenbo's white face suddenly turned red, and he looked at Xiao Jiading with hatred.

Xiao Jiading fanned it twice, looked at the couch, and muttered, "This couch is too dirty, why hasn't anyone cleaned it?" As he spoke, he unfolded Zhong Wenbo's golden folding fan on the couch and sat on top of the folding fan.

He's on the sidelines. It was in a row behind the VIPs such as Li Ke and Tang Lin, the king of Shu, so these VIPs didn't see it, but the people behind him saw it, especially Zhong Wenbo, who was by his side, and he saw it clearly, and he was so angry that he was smoking.

Zhong Wenbo had previously said in public that when he won Xiao Jiading's folding fan, he would pull a soak of on it. Obviously. Xiao Jiading is taking revenge on him, although he didn't do anything like pulling a bubble of shit to kill the scenery, but using his folding fan to cushion his butt to sit, the effect is almost the same.

Most of the onlookers behind heard what the two of them said. I also know the truth of the matter. I couldn't help but laugh.

Li Ke and the princess didn't know what the people behind Lu Dao were laughing at. Looking back, everyone quickly shut up again. Only Zhong Wenbo's face became like a pig's liver.

Lu Zhaolin sat on the right side of Xiao Jiading, of course he knew what was going on. smiled and whispered: "Big brother, you are really retribution!" ”

Xiao Jiading smiled and said, "If people don't offend me, I won't offend anyone, if people offend me, I will offend people!" ”

Old man Mao's classic assertion that Lu Zhaolin naturally couldn't know the way, but when he heard it, he felt righteous and awe-inspiring, and he was very generous, so he couldn't help but call out hello, and said in a low voice: "The eldest brother showed mercy to my subordinates just now, and the younger brother knew the way." ”

"Wherever and wherever I am, I truly admire you." Xiao Jiading said it very sincerely, and it was indeed from the heart. Of course, there were also those moments when he was angered by Lu Zhaolin's aggressiveness, but he quickly regained his composure, and his previous admiration for Lu Zhaolin prevailed again.

On the stage, the final was personally written by Li Ke, the king of Shu, so this host was naturally upgraded, and Pan Beijia, the second person in Yizhou, presided over it.

This is the first time Xiao Jiading has seen Pan Beijia.

Previously, Xiao Jiading had already learned from Du Dayin that this Pan Beijia used to be the first plenipotentiary minister of the dynasty, Sun Wuji, that is, the personal secretary, because of the appreciation of the eldest grandson Wuji, he went all the way to Yizhou Beijia. Now I see it, it's just a shriveled old man, and his appearance is not good. However, man shall not be disguised, and the sea shall not be measured. Such people are often more outstanding.

He analyzed the morning competition endlessly, especially the poems of the ten scholars who were selected for the finals, all of which were commented on one by one, and the words were brilliant, and the people below listened to them with relish.

After the comment, Pan Beijia respectfully announced that Li Ke, the king of Shu, was invited to come to the stage to give instructions and ask questions.

Li Ke got up on the stage, said a lot of emotion, and also spoke highly of the performance of the ten finalists. In particular, the poems of Lu Zhaolin, Xiao Jiading and Zhong Wenbo are even more appreciated by everyone.

After listening to Li Ke's praise, Zhong Wenbo's face was slightly better, and he regained a little confidence and chic, and wanted to take the folding fan twice to express his comfort, only to find that there was no folding fan in his hand, and the folding fan had already gone under Xiao Jiading's buttocks. And all the contestants couldn't bring servants, so they couldn't even get a handful, so they had to glare at Xiao Jiading stupidly.

Li Ke finished admiring and said: "Next, the final will be held, please ten contestants come to the stage and take their seats!" ”

Lu Zhaolin and the ten of them got up and came to the stage.

After Xiao Jiading got up, Zhong Wenbo glanced at his folding fan that he had sat under his buttocks, and it was already unrecognizable, and he was even more angry that his nose was crooked.

Xiao Jiading walked a few steps, and felt that it was inappropriate, Zhong Wenbo's folding fan was too conspicuous, if he stayed on the couch and left it alone, Li Ke and the princess turned their heads and came back and saw that the folding fan that they had lost to Zhong Wenbo to themselves was rotten, I was afraid that they would feel that they were too public. So he turned around and picked up the folding fan, crumpled it together casually, bent down and stuck it in the boot, and then went on stage.

The boots can be inserted into weapons such as daggers, but they are not a place to insert folding fans, not to mention that they are stuffed into a mess, which is not the same thing at all, Zhong Wenbo saw this, and his face turned green with anger.

After the ten people came to the stage, they sat down on the ten couches that had been set up.

Pan Beijia continued: "Please ask the King of Shu to ask the question." ”

Li Ke looked at his concubine and smiled: "Originally, it was the king who made the question, but the king's concubine is very happy today, she is a famous poet, a famous talented woman in the capital, the last session was unable to attend the ceremony for some reason, this time I would like to personally evaluate our talents in Yizhou." She made a request and asked her to come up with the question, and the king agreed, so please ask the concubine to come up and make the question! ”

Previously, it was the princess who personally lit incense for the three-person competition, and now she personally wrote the questions for the finals. This is even more amazing to everyone.

The princess smiled, got up generously, walked onto the high platform, stood beside Li Ke, and said: "The ten who can enter the finals today are all the top talents in Yizhou, no matter who wins the championship, all the ten are proud enough!" In particular, I have just seen the shortlisted Yizhou poetry rookie, and the masterpiece of the Xiao Jiading Xiao brothers, who have the ability to become poetry in seven steps, is really like drinking sweet rain. Instead of waiting for the wine banquet in the Taolin Stone Pagoda behind, why not drink a sea now? ”

Li Ke slapped his hands and smiled: "Wonderful! Come on, serve wine! ”

Immediately, the servant brought up a large jar of fine wine, and placed it on the side of the table, and put a wine bottle the size of a basin in the middle of the table. and put an antique Sanjiao wine bottle in front of each player. At first glance, it looks like an antique.

The servants were about to give them a ladle of wine, but the princess shook her hand lightly and said, "Stand down!" ”

The servant didn't know why Lu Dao didn't pour wine, so he hurriedly agreed to step down.

The princess walked to the big wine bottle that held the wine, picked up a bronze wine ladle, and said with a smile: "Back then, Qu Yuan 'aided the Beidou to drink jade syrup', but now the sun has not yet set, and there is no Big Dipper to give you a ladle wine, so the concubine will be the ladle bar for all talents!" ”

As soon as he heard this, Xiao Jiading suddenly felt a wave of pride surging above his head, if this sentence was said by a man, it would be fine, but it was said by the delicate and beautiful princess, which gave people a heroic spirit, women can still be like this, let alone a seven-foot man?

He felt this way, and the other nine people also felt the same way, and they all straightened their waists for a while. The eyebrows, whether thick or sparse, are upside down one by one.

The princess personally filled the bronze wine bottles in front of the ten selected ones one by one, and also filled them to Li Ke, the king of Shu, and herself, holding the wine bottles, and said in a sweet voice:

Although there is no wine,

Although there is no delicacies,

A few drinks!

These lines are the verses in the "Book of Songs", which say that although there is no good wine and no good food, please drink a few glasses.

The princess said, covered her left arm with a long sleeve, and slowly drank a bottle of wine. Seeing that the princess had drunk it, these ten people, whether they were good drinkers or not, drank up the wine in that bottle one by one. Two of them didn't actually know how to drink, and they choked and coughed vigorously.

There are feet under this wine bottle, which doesn't look big, but in fact, the stomach can be filled, and there are at least four taels when a bottle comes down! A few people who are not good at drinking will soon be flushed.

The princess drank a bottle of wine, but as if nothing happened, her face was still the same, and she looked at everyone and smiled: "Is there anyone who can drink?" ”

These people want to keep their heads clear, if they really drink too much, they can't write good poems and can't get good rankings, then they will lose a lot of money, if they are drunk and can't write, they can't even hand in the volume, isn't it even more shameful? Looking at this big wine bottle, he thought that he couldn't drink it, so he smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Xiao Jiading stood up, bowed down and said, "The nectar given by the princess and her mother, how can there be any reason not to drink it!" ”

Seeing Xiao Jiading standing up, Lu Zhaolin also got up and said with a smile: "Cao Mengde has a cloud: 'Singing about wine, what is life?' 'The younger brother drinks with the eldest brother!' ”

The princess smiled and said, "He is worthy of being the first genius in the capital, he is really heroic!" He poured wine for the two of them personally.

Zhong Wenbo also wanted to get up, but this wine bottle was too big, his amount of wine was limited, and he was already drunk when he went down to this wine bottle just now, although he could still drink another bottle, he was afraid that it would affect his performance, so he moved his buttocks, and he didn't get up yet.

The princess raised her glass, and Xiao Jiading also raised her glass, and said respectfully:

For this spring wine,

To Jie Mei Shou!

These two sentences are also from the "Book of Songs", which says that with this wine, I wish you a long life.

When the princess heard that he actually quoted the words of the "Book of Songs" to pay tribute to herself, she couldn't help but smile, nodded slightly, and drank the bottle of wine. (To be continued......)
