Chapter 123 ! Reveal the topic!
Maybe today is a special day, or maybe it's because the guests in the restaurant are all elegant literati and artists, and it's rare to see so many literati gathering and waiting for them to reveal the puzzles, so I feel happy.
Upstairs and downstairs, I saw the shopkeeper standing on the stage, the originally lively and noisy restaurant was a lot quieter, everyone's eyes were gathered on the stage, and the shopkeeper Tian was the focus at the moment.
On the second floor and the third floor, many people also came out to watch, standing in the corridor and looking downstairs...
However, there are also people in the private room who did not come out, which seems quite mysterious.
It was the first three rooms on the second and third floors, and no one opened the door to join in the fun.
"Quiet and quiet, hehehe..." On the stage, the shopkeeper Tian greeted people with a smile, stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and soon, the scene was already under control, and in the face of countless pairs of eyes full of expectation, the shopkeeper Tian slowly spoke...
"Today is the day to expose the topic, and everyone who came here should also know the notices posted everywhere at the door of the restaurant and the yamen staff two days ago, how to behave and how to win the award, I must know it in your heart, old man, I won't say more."
When the shopkeeper Tian finished speaking, everyone nodded yes, indicating that they knew the rules of answering the question this time and how to win the award.
Tian shopkeeper said again, "In this case, I don't talk nonsense anymore, old man, this will begin to reveal the puzzle, I wish all the talents here a victory, win rewards, and hope that this year's flower viewing energy saving will be held in our 'Gusu Town'." “
The words made the literati present excited, eager to try, and extremely looking forward to it.
The hobby of literati and ink writers is these elegant poems and books, so excited because I really want to let the flower appreciation festival be held here because of myself, and the bigger reason is that Taifu and the first prince came up with the question, how can you not look forward to trying your strength?
"Then, old man, I'll begin to reveal the mystery now." Shopkeeper Tian smiled, and then motioned to the two waiters in the corridor on the third floor near the high platform to do so.
I saw several bundles of silk cloth hanging on the top of the third floor, and the silk cloth was tied up and fell there, two bundles of red satin and two bundles of lilac satin.
"The riddles and pairs on this red satin are from Taifu, and purple is the question from the first son." The shopkeeper Tian explained with a smile that above the two sides of the high platform, suddenly, two bundles of silk were unfolded from a high place, and four long strips of silk had been lined up, with a few words written on them from top to bottom, which was the topic that everyone was waiting for.
So, the shopkeeper Tian once again encouraged and blessed everyone and left, because everyone's eyes were no longer on him, and they were completely attracted by the topic.
Upstairs, from top to bottom, there was a lot of buzz with people, and everyone watched the question read it, and after the four questions were finished, they pondered, or sat and discussed with their companions to see if they were inspired.
The restaurant is much more lively and noisy than when I just eat.
The topic was displayed for ten minutes, and Xia Zining came out of the house, walked to the corridor to look at the topic on the satin, and read silently with interest with her hands around her chest...
Wang Ziqian and Liu Moshou had been pondering and occasionally glanced at the third floor, and this time they saw that the door was opened, and her figure appeared there, inexplicably looking forward to whether she would give an answer.
It's just less than a minute, Xia Zining turned around and went back to the private room behind her, what she didn't know was that the moment before she came out, Xiao Xuanzi went back to the first private room after reading the question.
Xia Zining, who came out of the private room to read the question, was neither the earliest nor the latest, but in addition to Xia Zining, who came out of the first-class private room, she was either a maid or a scholar or a maid, or an older waiter.
Xia Zining took the paper and pen and wrote down the four questions outside on the paper, sat on the chair and was very leisurely, with snacks and tea next to her, and the topic on the right, taking snacks from time to time to taste and looking at the topic from time to time, and occasionally pondering.
It took more than an hour for Xia Zining to draw a pen and write on the paper.
