In the gentleman's building, the sound of the piano is loud. There were occasional whispers in the student seats on the first floor, and some of the seats were outside, and from time to time they looked up to see the two men sitting behind the adjacent tea case in the middle of the incense gallery on the second floor of the Lan Building.

With a warm smile on his face, Li Ke looked at the young man who was playing the piano in the field downstairs, and said softly to the upright person sitting cross-legged on the side: "It's just that when you are still recuperating in the house, it seems that you are very good now, I didn't expect you to be interested in joining in this fun, I am really surprised to see you here." ”

There were several officials sitting beside each of them, listening carefully to the students downstairs playing the piano, but in fact, they all pricked up their ears to listen to what the two people who were rarely in the same place were saying.

Compared with the deliberate closeness of Li Ke's tone, Li Tai's tone was much colder, "It's just me who should be surprised, I heard that you have been in a lot of trouble recently, and you still have time to come here." ”

Li Kezheng followed the rhythm of the sound lightly with his fingers, the smile on his face stiffened by three points, the last time he failed to assassinate Li Tai, he ended up losing his wife and breaking his army, he lost the Red Refining Monarch and a group of Smurging Flame Dead Soldiers, and offended the prince. was pinched by Li Tai again, which really made him busy for a while.

However, Li Tai did not take the opportunity to fall into the well, and that incident was like a boulder hitting the lake, and there was no splash at all, which made him, a person who was afraid of making a disturbance, very puzzled.

Li Ke turned his head and glanced at the man who was listening to the music with his eyes closed, and then stopped talking about the temptation, the other party had missed the opportunity to fall into the well, although he was not afraid of him, but he didn't want to find it uncomfortable.

As soon as the time for half a cup of tea arrived, the chief bookkeeper drank a word, and Lu Junchi, who was playing the piano, stopped, got up and bowed in the direction where Li Tai and Li Ke were sitting, and then turned around and saluted the judge.

The nine judges each took up a brush, wrote a few strokes in the pamphlet in front of them, and exchanged a few words, which was regarded as an impression of the student, and after the comparison of more than 40 students, according to their personal records, the best and the worst were selected.

The sacrificial wine took out a copper hammer and struck the small hanging bell on the table, and the master who was sitting under the plum building heard it, so he dragged out a long tail note and called the name of the next student.

Below the Lan Tower, Yi Yu was talking quietly to Lu Zhi, because there were people sitting around, and their words were very vague. It is probably the Lu family who is sitting on the bamboo building with the worry of Yu, although the four buildings are not close to each other, it can be passed on by word of mouth, and the Lu family must have known that Fang Qiao was here at this time.

Lu Zhi didn't care much, he spent more time with the Lu family than Yiyu these days, his mother is a person who can't hide things in his heart, he doesn't have anything in his heart, he knows most of it, and nodded a few words about Yiyu, and said that Mrs. Cheng is there, so she doesn't have to worry.

There were already five reference students on the field, and Yu Yu stared at the figures who had changed several times in the field, his fingers gently rubbing the cloth bag hidden by the cloak, and the mahogany box was placed inside. The snacks and meals on her case were all transferred to Cheng Xiaohu, Cheng Xiaofeng began to doze off listening to the sound of the piano, and Lu Zhi was idly drinking tea.

It wasn't until he heard Lu Zhi's name being called by the master that Yi Yu came back to his senses, and after watching Lu Zhi smile at the three of them, he got up and dusted off his clothes and walked towards the middle of the field.

Just after he walked out of the Lan Building, the eyes of attention on the second floor of the Junzi Building fell on him. Li Ke's lips moved slightly, wanting to say something to Li Tai, but after seeing that he was still with his eyes closed, he swallowed his words again.

When the sound of the Zheng Zheng piano sounded in the Junzi Building, a moment later, someone on the judgment table gave a shout of praise, it was the specially invited Lord Shen:

"Finally, there is someone who can answer the question."

The title of this piano art is "singing about wine", the most taboo and restrained, the previous few people only emphasized the tune and ignored the artistic conception, and the judges did not have a high evaluation.

Lord Shen's words were echoed by Dr. Cha of Tai Academy, "At first glance, this piano sound is a bit wanton, but when you sing about wine, you should be drunk, sing when you sing, or you must shrink your head and tail." ”

"Yes, yes."

Fang Qiao looked at Lu Zhi, who was plucking the strings in a comfortable posture downstairs, his ears were the praises of the doctors, and an incomprehensible look flashed in his eyes.

"It's a pity that the artistic conception is enough, but there are gaps in the technique." Dr. Cha did not blindly praise Lu Zhi because he was a student of his college, and said truthfully.

Dr. Yan Heng of the Four Sects Academy snorted lightly, "You are all those sons and daughters of your Tai Academy, you can play the piano since you were a child, and the pianists have been replaced one by one, so when Lu Zhi first entered my Four Sect Academy, he was still a poor boy who couldn't even distinguish the five notes." ”

Dr. Cha was ridiculed by him. He didn't care and said, "The old man is just telling the truth." ”

"If you get cheap, you can sell well."

Every outstanding student in the four colleges will be robbed by the Tai Academy, and the disagreement between the doctoral deans of the two academies has always been a common thing, and Dongfang You just listened to them with a smile.

Fang Qiao secretly clenched his fist under the case after listening to Yan Heng's words.

After Lu Zhi finished playing the song and saluted to the second floor, he deliberately raised his head and glanced at the judgment seat a few more times, before returning to his position under the gaze of everyone, Cheng Xiaofeng slapped him on the shoulder very excitedly, and said:

"Okay, Achi, shouldn't you get two more woodcuts this year!"

Lu Zhidan smiled silently, and took the tea handed by Yu Yu, he knew in his heart that it was almost impossible to take woodcarving in the piano art, and there were people who were better than him, and there were people who understood this artistic conception higher than him.

Sure enough, when it was almost noon, as soon as Changsun Xian came on the stage, she pressed all the dozen or so people in front of her, and some people even praised the case at the judgment seat. If Lu Zhi played a wanton song about wine, then Changsun Xian played a song about wine and played music in time.

After Changsun Xian's skills overwhelmed the audience, she tried three or two more people, and the bell rang, this morning's competition is over, and the faces of the people who competed after Changsun Xian are not very good-looking, and the effect of contrast is indeed powerful, even if it is Lu Junchi, who is the first to appear, is not as unlucky as those who play next to Miss Changsun, maybe the worst piano skills will be judged among several of them.

The sake of the plum upstairs stood up. After giving an indication to the other judgments, he went downstairs and announced in person that he would continue in the afternoon.

The kings of Wei and Wu on the Lan floor were the first to leave the table after Dongfang You's voice was behind. Later, the rest of the students and adults got up, and the Junzilou, which had been quiet just now, suddenly became lively, all of them evaluating the performance of those people just now.

Cheng Xiaofeng stretched his waist, and Changsun Xian's outstanding performance was expected, "Let's go, go find my mother and them, and go to my family for dinner." ”

Lu Zhidao: "You go to the front door and wait for me first." After saying that, he strode towards the Mei Lou opposite.

Cheng Xiaofeng asked Yiyu, "What is he going to do?" ”

"I don't know, let's go first, it looks like it's going to rain."

The sky outside the house was overcast, with a dull smell in the air, not like the day at all, Yi Yu glanced at a few figures standing upstairs over there, and pulled Cheng Xiaofeng towards the side door, Cheng Xiaohu threw the last piece of dried fruit into his mouth, patted the crumbs on his hands, and got up to catch up with them.

They walked out of the Lan Building after a group of students, and saw many people standing seven or eight steps away, saluting the two figures who walked down from the Lan Lou, wanting to wait for them to leave before leaving.

Although there were many people in front of him, Yi Yu was still easy to see the two people walking towards this side from the cracks, Li Ke in white and jade crown had a smile on his face, and looked at the students on the side very kindly, and he was diametrically opposite, Li Tai, who was dressed in a blue brocade dress and wore an engraved gold crown, walked forward without squinting.

Almost the moment she saw Li Tai, Yi Yu felt that her ears began to heat up, looking at the figure that was about to approach, she subconsciously lowered her head, and a sense of awkwardness rose in her heart, obviously she was playing against that person last night, and she was in the same room with that person. Talking to that person at eye level, why is she squirming at this moment!

Thinking so, Yi Yu clenched his fist, looked up and was about to look for the figure, when he heard a coquettish voice behind him: "Fourth brother!" Brother Ke! ”

A snow-blue figure trotted past her, and she looked at the students in front of her who were saluting Li Tai and Li Ke and consciously separated a way, letting Changsun Xi run over, and Changsun Xian followed behind her unhurriedly.

After Li Ke stopped, Li Tai took a few steps forward, and his figure stopped, and after Changsun Xi ran to them, he smiled sweetly at Li Ke, and then tilted his body, and said to Li Tai, who was standing on their side three steps away:

"Fourth brother, are you in good health?"

Eldest Sun Xian smiled: "Fool, the fourth brother will come to see the Fifth Academy Art Competition, and his body must be fine." ”

Eldest Sun Xi let out an "oh" and pulled the hem of his skirt, "Then let's have dinner together at noon, and come over together in the afternoon." ”

Li Ke turned his head and glanced at the person standing in front of him, and nodded in response to Sun Xi.

Eldest Sun Xian looked at Li Tai, who was silent, "Is the fourth brother going with you?" ”

Only then did Li Tai turn sideways and say in a slightly deep voice, "This king still has something to do." ”

"You're not here in the afternoon, are you?"

Seeing him bow, Changsun Xi's delicate little face suddenly darkened, "I, I'll compete in the afternoon." ”

Li Ke stretched out his hand and patted her on the head, "Isn't it enough for me to come to see you, what a greedy little girl." ”

Changsun Xi's little face bulged, and he muttered in a low voice, "That, that's different." ”

The few of them spoke as if no one was around, and the students who were waiting for them to go ahead not only did not feel anxious, but listened with relish.

Cheng Xiaofeng pursed his lips, turned his head to look at the exit of the bamboo building, and looked for the figures of Lu and Pei Cuiyun.

Across a group of students, Yi Yu quietly looked at the four people who were stopping to laugh, his eyes moved from Li Tai to Changsun Xi's body, thinking of those rumors, pressing the small hand on the bag containing the mahogany box, tightened.

Li Ke didn't hear what Eldest Sun Xi muttered, and when he was about to ask, he saw her suddenly take a step to the side and ask Li Tai:

"Fourth brother, would you like to come and try with me in the afternoon?"
