Chapter 169: Lotus Born Step by Step (2)

After winning two games in a row, the remaining six deans were a little uneasy.

Tang Fang and Zhu Dingwen buried their heads, only eating and drinking, as if they didn't want to get involved anymore. Winning or losing in front of others is a trivial matter, but losing in front of the Son of Heaven is a big thing.

However, these two people also think about it, after all, the law does not blame the public. He believes that in the remaining six matches, there will be people with the same fate as them.

At this time, a little eunuch brought a glass of wine to him and said in a low voice, "Dean Xiao Chu, please use wine." ”

Chu Yi said "thank you", picked up the wine glass, and drank it all, with a rather chic posture.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the wine. Chu Yi bowed and said.

Li Shixun was in a good mood and said with a smile: "After drinking, don't make a mistake." ”

"Your Majesty, rest assured, all the deans are elders, so they will naturally take care of the younger generations more and will not make mistakes. Chu Yi replied with his fists clenched.

Zhong Wu couldn't stand it anymore, and shouted to the remaining six deans: "This third game, I don't know which dean came up?"

The six deans glanced at each other, and then an old man with a gray beard got up and said with a full sense of anger, "I'll come." ”

This is Chen Dekai, the president of Zhangnan Academy in Weizhou.

Chu Yi won two games in a row, which made him have to pay enough attention.

Chen Dekai looked at Li Shixun's luggage, then looked at Chu Yi, and said with a smile: "Dean Xiao Chu, the old man has a question you want to ask?"

Chu Yi said calmly: "Dean Chen, please speak." ”

Chen Dekai continued: "Someone once asked me how much my husband can drink before he gets drunk, and I replied that I am also drunk if I drink a bucket, and I am also drunk when I drink a stone. Then the man asked, "How can you drink a stone if you get drunk after drinking a bucket?" Do you know why?"

Ten thousand grass and mud horses flew by in Chu Yi's heart, and there was no reliable answer to this kind of question at all. In other words, whether the answer is good or bad is all up to Chen De to open his mouth.

Li Shixun frowned slightly, and said secretly, this question is really difficult to answer. Compared to the previous two, it is much more difficult.

In the main hall, hundreds of pairs of eyes stared at him, wanting to see how he would respond this time.

Chu Yi looked around, looked at Li Shixun on the dragon chair again, and suddenly had an answer.

"Dean Chen, if what you say is not good, please forgive me. ”

Chen Dekai smiled and said, "Dean Xiao Chu don't worry, just answer it." ”

Chu Yi cleared his throat and said loudly: "Enjoy the wine in front of Your Majesty, the ministers are beside you, the dean, you are afraid, so you will naturally get drunk in one fight." ”

When Chen Dekai heard this, he immediately panicked, this kid actually dragged the emperor and the ministers in.

If you defend yourself, it is not disrespectful to the emperor and the ministers.

Li Shixun smiled and nodded, very satisfied with his answer.

Chu Yi continued: "But if there are distinguished guests at home, the dean, you carefully accompany the wine next to you, and get up from time to time to raise a glass to wish them a long life, then you will be drunk if you can't drink Erdou." But if friends suddenly meet and express their feelings to each other, they can probably drink five or six buckets. ”

Chu Yi paused for a moment and did not continue.

Although the expression on Chen Dekai's face did not change, he had to be very surprised in his heart, wondering how this kid could know so much about the amount of alcohol he drank.

"And then?" asked Chen Dekai.

Chu Yi smiled slightly, and said: "If it is a grand event in the countryside, men and women sit together, unrestrained, and there are entertainment items such as Liubo and pitching pots during the banquet, Dean, you are happy in your heart, and you will probably be drunk until you drink eight buckets." ”

Hearing this, Chen Dekai frowned slightly, and his face was slightly gloomy.

Chu Yi took two steps forward, walked up to him, and said in a low voice: "When it's late, the banquet will be dispersed, and the wine glasses will touch together, and you will be five or six points drunk." Immediately, the candlelight in the hall was extinguished, and the host stayed in the dean to see off the guests. At this moment, the dean, you are the happiest in your heart, and you can drink a stone. Yes and no?"

Although Chu Yi's voice was low, Chen Dekai heard it sincerely, and his whole face twitched slightly.

"It's nonsense!" Chen Dekai burst into flames.

Chu Yi turned to face Li Shixun and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, the sage has a saying, wine is chaotic, happiness is sad; ”

The meaning of this sentence is very clear, the pursuit of pleasure is endless, and blindly pursuing pleasure will lead to the evil path.

Chen Dekai suddenly realized, and was shocked into a cold sweat at the moment, and hurriedly knelt on the ground.

It was not until this moment that most people understood that Chu Yi's remarks not only answered Chen Dekai's question, but also made suggestions to the current saint by the way, so that he could understand a truth of 'extreme decline'.

Li Shixun was extremely surprised, he didn't expect that he would know how to seize the opportunity to speak to him in a metaphorical way.

It was so unexpected.

This is not only Li Shixun's idea, but also everyone's idea.

The princes sitting in the front row had strange looks flashing in their eyes, some admired, some jealous, some hated...

This Chu Yi is really unusual.

Zhong Wu looked at Chen Dekai, who was kneeling on the ground, and seemed to realize something, and a layer of cold sweat broke out behind him.

Right now, everyone is waiting for His Majesty the Emperor to speak.

"Get up. ”

Chen Dekai was frightened, got up tremblingly, and choked up: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

In the third game, Chu Yi and his exquisite ideas cracked Chen Dekai's fierce offensive, and also won the emperor's favor for him.

The remaining five deans looked at each other, and it was only at this time that they realized what kind of genius they were facing.

After making so many preparations before, I thought it was foolproof, but I didn't know that he would be easily cracked by most of it.

As long as he wins two games, then their strategy of the eight academies to join forces to encircle and suppress will completely fail.

Zhong Wu had a smile on his face and complimented, "Congratulations to Dean Xiao Chu for winning three games in a row." ”

Chu Yi said with a smile: "Lord Shangshu, if you say this, you will be proud and complacent in your later life." ”

Zhong Wu smiled heartily, then stopped talking to him, looked at the remaining five deans, and said, "Which dean will come up in this fourth game?"

"I'll come. ”

The person who stood up to speak was He Zhizhou, the dean of Yanzhou Wanmu Thatched Cottage.

Wanmu Thatched Cottage, one of the four major academies of the Southern Tang Dynasty, ranked fourth on the Wenhua list, and the last one was Xiangshan Academy. The first place is Donglin Academy, and the second is Yuelu Academy.

He Zhizhou's knowledge is profound, and everyone knows it. With him in this game, it shows that they attach great importance to Chu Yi and dare not take it lightly.

For He Zhizhou, when he was in Luochuan at that time, Chu Yi roughly understood this person's hobbies and temperament through Gen Si's intelligence.

It's okay to be academic, but his temper is not very good, and some people call him 'Huozhouzi'.

And what makes the world known is not his fiery temper, but his eloquence. Everyone in the world believes that He Zhizhou's clever way of arguing has always been unpredictable, and whoever meets him will not dare to speak in front of him.

In the territory of the Southern Tang Dynasty, it has the reputation of "Wisdom Race Sui He, Wisdom and Knowledge".

He Zhizhou strode forward, bowed to Li Shixun, and then arched his hand: "Your Majesty, can someone bring a white horse and place it in front of the main hall?"

Li Shixun was curious: "What is the so-called use?"

He Zhizhou said vaguely: "Your Majesty will know later." ”
