Chapter 44: Gao Tai Dou Shi
"Winner? I'll see what it looks like" Cai Yan didn't notice Bai Qi's gaze, but climbed onto Bai Qi's back, wanting to see the true face of this Wei Zhongdao's Lushan.
"It looks so weak, he looks sick, he won't be a short-lived ghost, Brother Bai, don't worry, he is definitely not as good as you"
Although Cai Yan didn't speak loudly, there were many people who heard it, including Wei Zhongdao on the high platform, because all the people present were waiting to announce the winner, and it was very quiet here.
"Hmm" Wei Zhongdao, who was enjoying everyone's applause at this time, frowned, obviously Cai Yan's words caused him unhappiness.
"I don't know which friend looks down on Wei's poems, and has the courage to come up and compare, don't be like a shrunken turtle, just dare to say some gossip offstage" I didn't think that this Wei Zhongdao didn't give anyone face at all, and said to the audience quite sharply.
And Cai Yan was also unintentional, in fact, she was not malicious, but when Wei Zhongdao said this, tears had begun to roll in her two big eyes, and she looked like a flood and discharged the embankment, and she was very aggrieved and said to Bai Qi.
"Brother Bai, I"
"It's okay to leave it to me, don't cry, if you're crying, Yan'er won't be cute," said Bai Qi, and brushed away the tears in Cai Yan's eyes with his hand, and then turned his head to look at the high platform.
"Since you are a man who is as knowledgeable as a woman, you still fight? I'll compare with you" After finishing speaking, Bai Qi did not wait for Wei Zhongdao to agree, but walked straight onto the high platform.
When Bai Qi walked up to the stage, the maid standing in the middle of the high platform immediately greeted him.
"Childe, our rules are like this" But before she could finish telling Bai Qi, she was interrupted by Bai Qi's actions.
"Needless to say, I know the rules, don't be so troublesome, hurry up and finish abusing him, I still have to play with my Yan'er" Bai Qi walked around the maid with an expressionless face and walked in front of Wei Zhongdao.
"I don't care if you are arrogant with others, but if you meet me today, I will definitely make you lose face"
"Haha, it's really clever and there is no one in the eyes, let's see the real chapter under our hands"
Before the duel began, a strong smell of gunpowder spread from the two of them.
"This son, this is Wei Gongzi's masterpiece, please see" The maid saw that the two were fighting-for-tat, and immediately stepped forward to stop the two.
There is no wind and red rushing to fall, and there is no rain and dead leaves.
Thousands of mountains do not hear people's voices, and fishing boats are not seen in thousands of waters.
Bai Qi silently read the poem written by Wei Zhongdao in his heart, I have to say that this Wei Zhongdao can leave a name in history, not just because he is Cai Yan's husband, just with the style of these two poems, Bai Qi asked himself if it was his former self, it would be impossible to write a poem that could surpass this one, but now Bai Qi is different, not only has the memory of more than two thousand years later, but also has an intelligence far beyond ordinary people, it can be said that it is easy to win Wei Zhongdao.
"Childe, please choose a topic," said the maid, pointing to the wooden frame on the side.
Bai Qi walked to the side of the wooden frame, at this time there are not many tips on the wooden frame, there are only a few scattered bags, it seems that there are many people before, in order to see the true face of Luoyang Oiran, and go on stage to compose poems, but unfortunately they have been eliminated.
Bai Qi didn't procrastinate, he took a bag of tips, opened it, took a look at the note inside, and handed it to the maid.
After the maid took the note, she glanced at it, and said to everyone in the audience, "Listen, everyone, the theme of this boy is snow."
Bai Qi didn't pay attention to all this, the theme of snow, it can be said to be very simple, it can also be said to be very difficult, this theme is easy to write a poem, but it is not simple to write a poem that amazes the four seats, but Bai Qi already has a work in his heart, and he only needs to change it slightly.
Bai Qi paced slowly on the high platform, after all, he still had to have a thinking look, if he made a poem as soon as he opened his mouth, others would think that he was a monster, and when he reached the seventh step and was about to raise his foot, the masterpiece in his mind groaned.
The story of Cao Zhi's seven-step poem is a good story for the ages, and almost everyone in modern times knows it, so Bai Qi also wants to imitate it.
The scenery of the northern country, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow drifting.
Looking inside and outside the Great Wall, only reckless; Up and down the river, suddenly lost and surging.
Mountain dance silver snake, the original Chi wax elephant, want to be higher than the heavenly public test.
It must be a sunny day, and look at the red dress, which is extraordinarily enchanting.
There are so many delicate rivers and mountains, leading countless heroes to bend their waists.
Cherish the three emperors and five emperors, a generation of heroes; Emperor Qin and Han Wu, each leading the way.
The past, the number of romantic figures, but also look at the present.
That's right, what Bai Qi chanted was the Qinyuan Spring Snow made by the modern Red Taizu, but he changed the following verses slightly, removing the Tang Dynasty and Song Ancestors who had not yet appeared on the historical stage, and replacing them with the three emperors and five emperors with a longer history, but the whole work is magnificent, and the spirit of who else is still vividly expressed.
And everyone in the audience calmed down after hearing Bai Qi's poems, and the stunned people, of course, including Wei Zhongdao, who is not very far from Bai Qi, although they have not yet made a judgment on the poems of the two, but which of the two works is good or bad, everyone has already judged in their hearts, although the words of the two poems are very wonderful, but the gap in artistic conception is very different.
"Wei Gongzi doesn't know how this poem of mine compares to the poem you made" Bai Qi slowly walked to Wei Zhongdao's side and said softly, but Bai Qi's words were not mixed with any emotion, neither mockery nor modesty.
As the saying goes, there is no first, there is no second, the reader does not dare to say that his article is the best, the standard for judging the quality is to look at the other party, if the other party thinks that your work is better than his, then you don't need to argue too much, he will also admit that he is inferior.
"Today is Wei Mou's loss, let's make plans in the future, goodbye" After finishing speaking, Wei Zhongdao didn't wait for Bai Qi to answer, he turned around and walked off the high platform directly, disappearing into the crowd.
When Wei Zhongdao stepped off the high platform, Cai Yan ran up, jumped to Bai Qi's side at once, and said with little stars in his eyes, "Brother Bai, you are so powerful, I didn't know that you had such great ambitions, Yan'er admires you so much."
The maid on the side also walked to Bai Qi's side, bowed down and said, "Congratulations to this son, you have won the victory, you can go to the back pavilion to enjoy the Oiran Fuqin."
"Eh, don't use this" Bai Qi looked at Cai Yan next to him, shook his head and smiled and wanted to refuse the maid's invitation, if he went to see the Oiran, what should Cai Yan do, he just weighed it a little in his heart, Bai Qi made this decision, compared to Cai Yan next to him, it is still much more important than this Luoyang Oiran who has only heard his name and has not seen his person.
"Childe, don't think about it too much, just enjoy the Oiran Fuqin, and the young lady next to you can also enter together" Perhaps seeing Bai Qi's concerns, the maid immediately explained.
"This" twitched with a white face, what does it mean that you think too much, is it okay to think too much.
But before Bai Qi could speak, Cai Yan pulled Bai Qi and walked to the back pavilion, and said as he walked, "Brother Bai is awkward, Yan'er also wants to see what this Luoyang Oiran looks like, how much better it can be than me, let's go and see"
Hearing Cai Yan say this, Bai Qi couldn't refuse, so he walked to the back pavilion together, but Bai Qi's heart still felt weird, how could he take a female companion to see the Oiran, but at this time, even if he was uncomfortable in his heart, he had already come here, so he could only bite the bullet.
After a while, Bai Qi and Cai Yan came to the door of a room under the guidance of the maid, and when they came to the door, the maid pushed the door open, bowed slightly, and led forward with her right hand.
"Please"
There was no subsequent action after the word please, and Bai Qi and Cai Yan did not delay, raised their feet and crossed the threshold, and entered the house, and the maid outside the house did not follow in, but after Bai Qi and Cai Yan entered the house, they raised their hands and closed the door.
