Chapter 173: The General and the Tea Lady
Poetry competition, in order to maintain the principle of fairness and justice, the four countries will draw lots, and whoever catches the golden lot will have the qualifications to solve the problem, and there is no need to limit the power of the cloud country.
And this time, the one who caught the golden lot was the Tai Lang, which is surrounded by mountains and water, and the Tai Lang is a country where the land is partially desertified, and the Tai Lang is heroic in nature, and attaches great importance to love and righteousness.
The weather-faced general got off the horse and asked the tea lady on the side of the road, do you know the tea girl who spoke very softly nearby? The tea lady replied with a smile, the girl is married and has no worries about food and clothing. The general sighed, took out a handkerchief from his bosom and handed it to the tea lady, asking the tea lady to help him hand the handkerchief to the girl, and thank her for the refreshments that year. When the sun sets, the thin horse is far away, the tea lady shouts to the diners: The old lady is happy today, all the tea is half price!
"The above is the question of my Tai Lang, I am not talented, please forgive me", the national teacher who accompanied me came out to read the question to everyone, the last sentence, although the words are modest, but the tone is a pride that cannot be hidden, because the person who wrote the question must have done enough homework on the topic.
After the title is finished, there will be a stick of incense time left for the other three countries to prepare, whether it is to consult the poetry collection on the spot or to gather the wisdom of the people, but after the game, there can be no other preparations.
Hearing this topic, Hua Banxia's mind appeared in the situation of the ancient road west wind thin horse, this topic is quite common, in her opinion, it is not so difficult.
For others, however, the subject is a little more difficult. Most of the people who participated in the poetry contest were literati and scholars in this country, and these scholars rarely had the opportunity to go to the border battlefield, and they could not imagine how the general expressed his emotions.
Those generals and soldiers who have really been to the border and have been on the battlefield are very few who can compose poems, and the two will always lack one of them.
In this one, the three kingdoms of Yunguo, Nanyan and Loulan are all in full swing discussing who is more proficient in this aspect of poetry and who to send.
Now that he has decided to take the initiative to prove his strength, Hua Banxia naturally couldn't back down, and stood up directly from his position and walked to the position of Yun Guo on the field and sat down.
Seeing this, Ling Muci also hurriedly stepped forward, chose a position next to Hua Banxia and sat down, leaned slightly towards Hua Banxia, and asked in a low voice, "Hua girl, are you okay?" ”
He knew Hua Banxia's ability to poetry, but it wasn't the subject at the time, so he was still a little worried.
"Don't worry, isn't there still you", Hua Banxia clasped his hands to his chest, leaned on the back of the chair, and said leisurely with Erlang's legs crossed.
"Flower girl, don't be joking, are you okay, if you can't do it, let's change someone", Ling Muci heard her answer like this, and thought that she was really up to play, and suddenly felt a little anxious.
Hua Banxia ignored the fidgeting Ling Muci, but set his eyes on Yunye, does he believe her?
Waking up in Yunye's bed at noon, the two had a deep conversation, Hua Banxia explained his mind to him, but until the competition began, he didn't explain his meaning to her, which made Hua Banxia a little apprehensive.
Yun Ye was also looking at Hua Banxia, and just smiled lightly before she walked on stage so confidently, but when she could see it, the smile on the corner of her mouth instantly turned cold, and it was replaced by an expressionless face.
Seeing that he ignored himself, Hua Banxia withdrew his gaze, and when he skimmed Yun Zheng's position, he saw Yun Zheng looking at her with a worried look, as if asking how sure she could be.
"Lin Gongzi, do you think this flower girl is okay?" The eleventh of the training camp sat close to Lin Ran, and when they saw that Hua Banxia was actually on the field, they couldn't help but have some doubts.
The reason why Eleven called Lin Ran Lin Gongzi was because Lin Ran attended as the emperor's accompaniment in public, and he could not reveal his true identity to outsiders.
"Let's wait and see what happens", Lin Ran didn't know, he always felt that there were many mysterious things on this Hua Banxia waiting to be discovered by others, but he didn't know if he didn't include the answer to this poetry competition.
After a stick of incense, the personnel sent by the four countries were already in place, and everyone looked full of confidence, and the so-called loser did not lose the battle.
In addition to Hua Banxia and Ling Muci, Yunguo sent also Yun Ye and Liu Zhengfeng under the command of Xiangguo Gong, Liu Zhengfeng was a second-class civil official in the dynasty, and he was also a scientific examination candidate, with a little ink in his stomach.
In addition to Limo, there are also Princess Tai Yan, Tang Tang, the daughter of the official family, and Qingkong, the son of the official family, who are all said to be well-known figures in Tai Yan.
The south is headed by Nanjiuge, and there are three people, including Fang Cambodia, Liu Qiaole, and Qu Hantian, and Loulan is Feng Wanmo, Gu Zhiqian, Chen Lianghui, and Qin Mingye.
"Okay, the poetry contest starts now, please prepare for the country, the poems on this topic are not limited, the answer is not limited, and the countries that can't answer in a tea time will be eliminated", You Shuo presided over the last literary competition, and after speaking, he asked the question to answer the question first, and then went down to the right at a time.
Of course, Tai Yan was fully prepared, and his opening was "The general rode his horse to the end of the world, and the Yi people still sold tea in the past", this sentence is the simplest, and it should only summarize the gist of the previous topic.
To the right of Tai Yan is Yun Guo, and the people of Tai Yan will go to Yun Guo to pick him up after answering, Ling Muci is naturally no problem, but Hua Banxia does not intend to give him a chance to speak, "The first time I met the tea seller, my family and country are in chaos." Fame and glory in the hometown, time bears a red face".
Ling Mu's words to her lips were interrupted by Hua Banxia, so she had to swallow it back, and she was a little relieved to see that her answer was still quite slippery.
Further down is Loulan, it is said that Loulan's seventh prince, Feng Wanmo, is an invincible great poet, which is certainly not a difficult thing for him, "Half a life of Rong Ma returned to his hometown, and Cha Ni was a wife in the past." I used the excuse to return to the token, and when I turned around, I was left with tears left."
Good! Hearing Feng Wanmo's answer, Hua Banxia secretly added a good thing in her heart. He read the story through these few sentences, which general doesn't know that there is an Iraqi person in front of him, but the Yiren is already a wife, what can he do?
Feng Wanmo suddenly raised the topic to this height, which made Nan Yan below feel a little pressure, if they were blocked in the first round, it would not be too embarrassing.
The four people in Nanyan had an urgent discussion for a short time, and after half a tea time, they came up with the answer, "Ten years and one day, tea is still sold, and the king will come to ask questions." Zhijun still misses the old times, and rejoices that the tea is half price."
The four countries selected are really lineups that should not be underestimated, and the theme is a height of rising height, so that the people on and off the field are addicted.
"A few people returned from the battlefield battle, and the old days were urging. The years have passed away, and the people are still there, and one side has lost the remaining feelings".
General Chi Du entered the teahouse, smiling and reminiscing. The Sanzhang Tea House is still there today, and I don't see the pretty girls of the year."
The theme gradually deepened, the range of poems that could be developed gradually expanded, round after round of responses, and only 16 people participated in the competition, but the people on the field felt that it was more useful than reading a book for a few years!
What's more, when they heard some quatrains, they wrote them down on the spot, for fear that they wouldn't be able to remember and miss such a good sentence.
"That's amazing!" Eleven of the training camp couldn't help but admire, originally he thought that his instructor was just a rude girl, but he didn't expect that he was also very good at composing poems and lyrics.
"Yes, it's really unexpected", Lin Ran's eyes were full of surprise, he didn't expect that Hua Banxia was no worse than those daughters in the city.
Is she omnipotent? Is there anything she wouldn't do? Lin Ran couldn't help but shake her head, not knowing if it was because she was too powerful or if she was denying the idea that someone in her heart was more powerful than her.
"Fortunately, we came to see it, those brothers who didn't have a chance to see it don't know how sorry it is!" Eleven was still staring at Hua Banxia's back with a look of adoration, she was sitting on her lap, and the appearance of serious competition was really charming.
Originally, Hua Banxia was lazily leaning on the chair, but now he is sitting so upright because after more than a dozen rounds of answers, Nan Yan and Tai Yan have been eliminated in turn, and only Yunguo and Loulan are still struggling.
Although Tai Yan was very well prepared, he still couldn't withstand the bombardment of the Three Kingdoms, who let them meet Feng Wanmo and Hua Banxia, two perverted people.
Loulan can no longer count down, in the past four years, Feng Wanmo can be said to have been desperately preparing, and has reached the level of knowing astronomy and geography.
But for Hua Banxia, a traveler with thousands of years of cultural knowledge, it is still weaker. Now the competition between the two sides has reached a white-hot state, and it is possible to lose the game if you are not careful.
"I only wish that the love Lang Ming concubine will live up to ten years of dry love. Looking at the west wind and returning to the thin horse, leaving silk and yellow flowers in vain", in the face of Feng Wanmo's powerful momentum, Hua Banxia lowered her eyes and thought for a while before throwing out her answer.
Feng Wanmo's hands trembled and gradually clenched, this woman is really powerful, among the four people in Yunguo, she is the only one who answers, no matter how difficult it is.
And he's almost unable to hold on, even if he loses now, it won't be a countdown, but he still wants to compete with Hua Banxia on the other side, he doesn't believe it, he will lose to a woman!
"I can't bear to die in the field for ten years, just to return to my hometown Xie Hongyan!" Feng Wanmo can't make the whole poem anymore, and can only answer two sentences.
But there is no provision in the rules that it must be a complete poem, so he is not considered a foul, and in this case, Hua Banxia does not need to reply with the whole poem.
"Today's gentleman often remembers, and lives up to the boiling water here", what is the situation, now the two have obviously automatically stood in the perspective of the hero and heroine in the poem, Feng Wanmo represents the general, and Hua Banxia represents the tea girl, it depends on who takes who first.
"I don't regret being affectionate in this life, and I am willing to travel alone and drift away", Feng Wanmo became more and more into the play, and the eyes that originally looked at Hua Banxia had changed from suppressing her to being affectionate, as if she was the general.
Hua Banxia didn't expect Feng Wanmo to be able to do it to this extent, he didn't look like a person who would be affectionate for women, was he too devoted?
"The world is safe and perfect, and it lives up to its promise!" Can't go on like this, Hua Banxia must end this competition, this poem not only implies that the other party can't win at the same time, but also expresses the mood of the tea lady vividly.
This sentence did give Feng Wanmo a big blow, "The world is safe and perfect, and it lives up to its promise", Feng Wanmo muttered and repeated Hua Banxia's words, and finally lowered her head.
"Good!" Yun Zheng saw the current situation clearly, knew that Yun Guo had won, and this competition was really too enjoyable, so he couldn't help but stand up and applaud.
