That's right! Who is this Yi Jiuxiao? Can surpass Zhu Chen and Shanhui, and everyone in front of the top list is talking about it.

It turned out that the second Zhu Chen was the son of the county official of Kaicheng County, he was talented and intelligent since he was a child, and he never forgot to read, and he became a poem in seven steps, although he was only fourteen years old, he was already famous. The third Shanhui is not simple, the family is quite wealthy, since he was a child, he invited a famous teacher to teach, it is said that he is also well-read, the export is a chapter, and he is a famous little talent in Kaizhou City.

These two people had heard of it before, but he had no intention of scientific research, and he had nothing to do with these two people, he squinted at Yi Jiuxiao, who was standing beside him and was a little stunned, and said in his heart: You kid is really hidden, if you don't make a sound, it's just a blockbuster.

Yi Jiuxiao also looked at Wan Shufang, and said in his heart: It's normal for me to take the top spot, my poems are all borrowed from the famous masterpieces of my previous life, not to mention the county exam, even the state exam and the national exam will be among the best. Qi State does not attach much importance to reading, how can it be compared with the Great Song Dynasty and the previous dynasty.

Neither of them made a sound, and quietly left the list site, if the onlookers knew that the person next to them was Yi Jiuxiao, the top of the list, and didn't immediately surround them, it would not be easy to leave at that time. Although Qi Guo does not attach importance to reading, in the eyes of readers, fame is still the first priority, and he is a real scholar after passing the county examination, and the leader among the scholars is one in a million, which is quite envied and admired.

After returning home, Wanjia held a wedding banquet for Yi Jiuxiao, and Wan Qianhao, the head of the Wanfu family, personally attended the banquet to celebrate Yi Jiuxiao's Xizhong County Kaokuiyuan. The banquet also invited the Liangyue sisters, the owners of the song and dance workshop, and Yi Jiuxiao's benefactor Huang Luo.

The song and dance workshop and the Huang family had helped Yi Jiuxiao a lot, so they invited them to participate and share this celebration together. Wanjia is a family and is indeed well versed in the way of talent investment, so it can survive for thousands of years.

Two days later, the county government sent someone to send an invitation to invite Yi Jiuxiao to the county government as a guest, this time it was naturally Yi Jiuxiao who went alone, and it was inconvenient for Wan Shufang to accompany him, but Wan Fu arranged carriages, horses and servants.

The county examination is held every three years, and after each county examination, the county order will invite the top three scholars to a banquet, on the one hand, to recognize those talented scholars, and more importantly, to establish a relationship.

The top three scholars are all talents, and the possibility of becoming officials in the future is very high, if the county order establishes a relationship with these scholars, and buries a little incense friendship, it will be very helpful to each other in the future, so the banquet is personally led by the county order, and the officials of the examination institute are accompanied.

Yi Jiuxiao, under the leadership of the officials, met with the county magistrate of Kaicheng County, whose surname is Zhu, whose name is Yuanshan, and he is the father of Zhu Chen, who is the second place in the county examination. In addition to the county order, there were also Le Ling, the dean of the Kaicheng County Examination Institute, and the other two scholars on the same list, Zhu Chen and Shanhui, Yi Jiuxiao greeted them one by one.

But seeing that Zhu Xianling was about forty, with fair skin and thin eyebrows and long eyes. Dean Leling looks like he is about fifty years old, with three strands of long hair, and he looks elegant. Looking at Zhu Chen again, his eyebrows are similar to his father's, his expression is extremely cold and arrogant, Yi Jiuxiao and his courtesy are ignored, while Shanhui is smiling, showing a kind of smiling and smiling.

Zhu Xianling greatly commended and encouraged Yi Jiuxiao, Yi Jiuxiao repeatedly expressed his gratitude, and the dean of the examination institute, Le Ling, twisted his long beard and nodded again and again, very approving. Le Ling has personally seen Yi Jiuxiao's test paper and admires it very much.

The other two scholars present saw that Zhu Xianling praised Yi Jiuxiao, their faces were not good-looking, Zhu Chen's face was even more indifferent, and a trace of treachery flashed in Shanhui's eyes.

Literati have been light on each other since ancient times. Many of the scholars are over-eyed and pretentious, and no one looks down on them except themselves, especially characters like Yi Jiuxiao, who are of unknown origin, and they are not in their eyes. Martial artists are different, although they fight life and death, but they value each other, there is a saying in the Great Song Dynasty called "Wen has no first, Wu has no second", this sentence is also applicable in Qi State.

Reading is Yi Jiuxiao's helpless move, he is a martial artist in his bones, so he has no contempt for the two people here, and he just laughs at the coldness and coldness expressed by the two, and he doesn't care very much.

The people have arrived, and the county commander has ordered a banquet, and everyone can chat while drinking. Yi Jiuxiao usually doesn't drink, but with the county magistrate and the dean present, he had to pick up the cup, pour the wine, and go over to salute the two adults, otherwise it would be rude.

Shanhui stood up, picked up the wine glass, came to Yi Jiuxiao, and said: "Brother Yi is talented, he is at the top of the list, and he is very admired, so drink first for respect." With that, he drank a glass of wine.

Yi Jiuxiao immediately stood up, raised his glass, and thanked: "Thank you, brother, this time is just a coincidence, how dare you compare with the two brothers in terms of talent." With that, he raised his glass and drank it.

Seeing that Yi Jiuxiao finished drinking, Shanhui did not leave, and said with a smile: "Brother Yi doesn't have to be modest, since he is favored by the examination institute, he must have something extraordinary! I think Brother Yi is definitely good at poetry, how about the three of us composing poems on the spot today?"

Said that Chang Hui glanced at Zhu Xian Ling and Dean Leling, and then at Zhu Chen, Zhu Chen nodded and stretched out his thumb. This is a conspiracy, *naked to challenge Yi Jiuxiao. Yi Jiuxiao is the first place, it is normal to win, if he loses, he is worthy of the name, and Zhu Chen is best at poetry, known as poetry in seven steps, if he improvises poetry on the spot, the winning rate is extremely high.

Yi Jiuxiao looked at Shanhui, he couldn't be clearer about that little trick, and Shanhui actually didn't know Yi Jiuxiao, composing poetry is exactly Yi Jiuxiao's forte, thousands of poems of the past dynasties are packed in Yi Jiuxiao's mind, not to mention seven steps into poetry, even one step into poetry He can do it.

Moreover, the level of Qi Guo's poetry is not mentioned, Yi Jiuxiao once saw the so-called masterpieces of Qi in the classics of Wanfu, and even the third-rate level was counted in the Great Song Dynasty. Even so, Yi Jiuxiao did not express his position immediately, but set his sights on Zhu Xianling and Dean Leling.

Shanhui's proposal Zhu County Ling actually agrees with it, this county exam, I thought that my son Zhu Chen could be at the top of the list, who wants to be taken away by this Yi Jiuxiao who came out of nowhere, I am quite annoyed in my heart, if I improvise a poem on the spot today, I can also save some face and slap the examination institute. But he was old and sophisticated, and did not show his approval, but turned his head and asked Leling:

"Dean Le, what do you think, they are all scholars of your examination institute. ”

"Master Hui, since the three scholars have Yaxing, let them improvise poems, and it is not impossible to have a competition. ”

Le Ling had read the test papers of the three people, and he admired Yi Jiuxiao's "Jiang Xue" very much, in his eyes, although Zhu Chen and Shanhui followed closely in ranking, they could not be compared with Yi Jiuxiao at all. Today, the two of them provoked Yi Jiuxiao on the spot, which was definitely self-inflicted, why don't you agree with it if you have a good show?

Seeing that Leling was in favor of the competition, Zhu Xianling was secretly happy, he was very confident in his son's strength, but in order to show his fairness as the lord of a county, he still pushed the competition to Leling.

"Dean Le, since you are in favor of the competition, this official just observes the talents of the three scholars, and you can set the rules and questions. ”

Le Ling thought for a moment and said the rules of the game. Since the poem is written on the banquet, with the theme of "wine", in a moment, the three scholars each composed a poem, no less than 20 sentences, each written on the answer sheet and handed over to Leling, by Leling and the county order to jointly evaluate.

A servant brought a pen and paper to the three of them, and after Leling said that he began, the three of them buried their heads in answering the questions, and the timing was also carried out at the same time, and a moment later, the officials collected the answers of the three people and put them in front of Leling's table.

When Leling got the answer sheet, he didn't open it immediately, but said to Zhu County: "My lord, how about I recite the poems of the three scholars first, and then evaluate them?"

"Very good!" replied Zhu Xianling, it was a fair suggestion, and he had no reason to object.

Leling first took out Shanhui's answer sheet, this proposal was initiated by Shanhui, and naturally recited his poems first, only to see Leling read:

"I have a lot of wine, and I used to drink it in a gold bottle. Fusheng begged to get drunk, and never woke up the next day. There were guests from afar, and seven or eight people were seated. The food is accompanied by fine wine, and everyone is happy to raise a glass. After staggering, the three cups were slightly drunk. At this time, the wine is strong, and you can't stop it. Replace a small cup with a large cup, and then ten catties of wine. If you don't drink well, I advise him to give orders. Be willing to gamble and admit defeat, and don't blame others. Three rounds of orders were stopped, and the cup was broken and the table was tilted. ”

Exactly twenty sentences, in line with the rules, Leling did not comment, and continued to pick up another answer sheet and recite, which is Zhu Chen's poem:

"Wine is a fairy property, and mortals steal it. I usually drink during the banquet, and I don't hold myself at all. Three cups are invincible, drunk and rotten like mud. All the ugliness is out, like madness and stupidity. Regardless of the laughter of everyone, he took care of himself. His clothes were disheveled, and his hair was in a messy bun. Leaning against the wall and struggling to walk, the transfer of ownership is stumbling. They go into other houses and disturb their neighbors. Tell where you are, and wait until you wake up. It's like a dream, and the form and soul are separated. There is no end to ecstasy, and there is no end to hatred. ”

After reading it, Le Ling counted it, twenty-two sentences, in line with the rules, and did not comment, and continued to pick up the last answer sheet for recitation, which was Yi Jiuxiao's poem, and he borrowed Cao Cao's tanka line:

"When you sing about wine, life is geometric! For example, the morning dew is bitter in the past. Be generous and unforgettable. How can we solve our worries? Only Du Kang. Qingqing Zijin, leisurely my heart. But for the sake of the king, he has been groaning so far. Yo yo deer chirping, eating wild apples. I have guests, drummers and shengs. It is as clear as the moon, when can it be resolved? ”

Reading the last sentence, Leling couldn't help but applaud: "Good poem, good song for wine, geometry of life!"
