The archery competition of the jade cake night banquet came to an end in a miss of Prince Jiang Guoyutang and a distress of Prince Xuanlin of Liang State.

Jiang Yutang knelt on the ground, and said in fear: "The son missed for a while, and almost injured Prince Xuanlin by mistake, and asked his father to surrender." ”

Jiang Zhong threw the sinister feather arrow on the table, tilted his head slightly and looked at Emperor Jiang and Prince Jiang, that is, his father and brother singing a double reed, with an expressionless face.

"Breaking three copper hearts in a row, the arrow still contains such a powerful force, this kind of arm strength is simply incredible. Qingqin, who was sitting beside Jiang Zhong, said in a low voice: "As for the means of making the arrow turn halfway, it proves that this Prince Yutang has advanced to the micro realm. The silver martial spirit is really extraordinary. ”

Jiang Zhong finally showed a trace of expression on his face, and said "Yes" with a smile, Qingqin glanced at him, pursed his lips, and stopped talking.

At this time, it was finally about Empress Jiang to appear, and after Emperor Jiang reprimanded Prince Yutang, Empress Jiang left his seat and said: "Your Majesty, although Yutang was careless, fortunately, Mr. Xiao Chen made a timely move, Prince Xuanlin was also in danger, and the concubine begged Your Majesty to be lenient." ”

Later, the princes and princesses led by the second prince Jiang Yulu also knelt down and begged Emperor Jiang to fall lightly, although Princess Feihuang suspected that Jiang Yutang did it on purpose, but first, she had no friendship with the prince of Liang, and secondly, because of this, she saw the superb means of the future master, but she didn't mind, so she also followed the third princess to intercede for Prince Yutang: "Fortunately, the prince of Liangguo is not injured, Your Majesty should think that Prince Yutang is testing Mr. Chen's skills." ”

Emperor Jiang saw that Princess Feihuang was also interceding for Prince Yutang, his face softened slightly, and he snorted lightly, Jiang Zhong saw the opportunity to pull Liang Xuanlin's clothes, raised his chin, Prince Xuanlin understood, stood up, made a big salute to Emperor Jiang, and said: "Your Majesty Emperor Jiang, please calm your anger, the foreign minister believes that the prince of Yutang is an unintentional mistake, and the foreign minister is safe and sound now, Your Majesty will spare the prince of Yutang." ”

Emperor Jiang was very relieved to see that Prince Xuanlin had risen to intercede for Prince Yutang, and pointed at Jiang Yutang and said, "Look at you, you almost hurt Liang Qing for your recklessness, and now let Liang Qing intercede for you, are you ashamed?"

"The son is ashamed. ”

At this time, the envoys of other countries also stood up one after another, imploring Emperor Jiang to calm his anger, Chen Guoxue Shi Ding Que said: "The sword and arrow have no eyes, and it is inevitable to miss, since Prince Liang has not been injured, His Majesty Emperor Jiang does not need to punish more. ”

When Emperor Liang heard this, he suddenly woke up, waved his sleeves, and said impatiently: "Get up, if it weren't for Ding Qing's reminder, I almost missed the right thing." ”

Everyone got up, only Jiang Yutang knelt, and Emperor Jiang ordered: "Prince Yutang's eyes are low, and he almost injured the distinguished guests by mistake. ”

Prince Yutang bowed down and said, "The son of the minister is grateful." ”

Emperor Jiang waved his hand: "Step aside." ”

In the archery competition, the jade cake was finally given to Chen Guo Chen Pan, and then the highlight of the Mid-Autumn Festival jade cake banquet, the Mid-Autumn Festival officially began.

The music sounded, the phoenix stage once again fluttered, the man danced and turned, and a group of attendants held pen, ink, paper and inkstones in an orderly manner shuttled around the field, in case someone was short of paper and pen.

Inadvertently, a eunuch whispered something in Gu Hou'an's ear, Gu Hou'an first showed a slightly stunned expression, and then nodded in agreement, and glanced at Jiang Zhong uncertainly.

At the same time, looking at Jiang Zhong were also Chen Guo University scholar Ding Que and Chen Kuang, the son of Chen Wang, the two were discussing how to use Chen Tong's tips at this time, Chen Kuang said: "The art of war has clouds, one blow, then decline, three and exhaustion, this king thinks that Chen's tips should be cast at the end of the literary meeting, and then that Chen people are bound to be exhausted, and they can be fatal with one blow." ”

Ding Que said: "His Royal Highness King Fu's plan is not bad, but it is a little disrespectful to everyone Chen. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Everyone Chen is determined to kill a mere man, why wait for him to make a move when he is exhausted?"

Chen Kuang hurriedly said: "This king has no such intention. ”

"The old minister understands His Royal Highness's meaning, but when the Chen family awarded the old minister this tip, he specially instructed that there is no need to say more, there is no need to delay, once the meeting starts, it will be thrown directly. ”

Chen Kuang said: "Since everyone Chen has already explained, then follow the order, and this king has no objection." ”

After a while, Emperor Jiang began to speak, first severely reprimanded the demons for making waves and ill-intentioned, and then praised the prosperity of the human race's civil and military affairs, all countries worked together, and the human alliance was solid, and he did not hesitate to praise all the talents present, and said some words of "all the young heroes here are the pillars of all countries and the future of the human race", and finally ordered the text meeting to begin: "Since it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, the first round of topics does not have to be innovative, still take the bright moon as the theme." ”

Everyone nodded in agreement and said, "It should be so." ”

Emperor Jiang smiled with satisfaction and said, "Then now the secretaries will choose their opponents, and the winner will enter the second round." ”

As soon as Emperor Jiang said this, five or six people suddenly stood up at the same time, and said in unison: "I want to pick the first round of Liang Guochen Ren Zoomlion!"

Six people invited one person to fight at the same time, and it also included the bachelors of Chen Jiang and the two countries, throughout the history of the Mid-Autumn Festival, this is the first case!

Gu Hou'an made a gesture to the other five people and said: "Gu is the master, you are guests, the so-called 'guests are as they are the master', you don't have to fight with Gu." ”

Hearing this, the three of them smiled and shook their heads and sat down, leaving only the talented son of the Jin Kingdom and the scholar of Chen Guoding Que, Gu Hou'an smiled and said: "I can't say that the three of us have to fight first." ”

The talented man of the Jin Kingdom bowed slightly, and Ding Que said regretfully: "It has been the long-cherished wish of the old man for many years to be able to compare with Xie Yi, the head of the first class of talents in the Jin Kingdom, and the first scholar of Jiang Guo, and Gu Hou'an, the master of Fang Xu, but unfortunately, this first round of comparison with the star talent, the old man is determined to win, and the competition with the two may as well be placed in the last two rounds." ”

Gu Hou'an and Xie Yi were puzzled: "Why did Scholar Ding say this?"

Ding Que smiled slightly, took out a dark red bag from his sleeve, and said: "It's just that this first round is not the old man's battle, but the country's Chen Tong everyone wants to publish a poem, please Liang Guo Chen Taifu to comment!"

As soon as these words came out, the four were shocked: "Chen Tong, one of the three great families of the human race, actually invited Chen Renzhong in a poem!"

Gu Hou'an was speechless, and glanced back at Emperor Jiang, Emperor Jiang bowed slightly, and Gu Hou'an said: "Since everyone Chen intends to take the school to Mr. Chen, Gu is willing to withdraw." ”

Ding Que looked at Xie Yi again, Xie Yi hesitated, glanced at the bag, and sat down with his fists clenched.

Emperor Jiang said with a smile: "I held this jade cake night banquet to gather the young elites of civil and military affairs from all over the world, and they all exchanged ideas and benefited each other. Chen Qing, Chen everyone invites you, do you accept it or not?"

Jiang Zhong didn't have time to answer, Qin Baiyao hurriedly said: "Back to His Majesty Emperor Jiang, Chen Tong is the hope of our human race Wendao Taishan Beidou, since the Mobao is given to this night banquet, it should be taken together, how can it be that Taifu Chen alone receives it, it is really disrespectful." ”

Emperor Jiang nodded when he heard this, looked at Ding Que, and Ding Que said: "Scholar Qin's words are wrong, Chen Dajia's poem is specially written for the star talent, and the title of the poem is "Gift to Liang Taifu Chen Renzhong", how can others receive it together?"

Hearing this, some people in the audience faintly understood that Chen Renzhong's poem invitation to Chen Renzhong was probably not as simple as taking the school examination and instructing, but to avenge the closed disciple to pick up the star prince!

No matter how Chen Renzhong points the stars and how he carves the dragon and phoenix, when facing the literary spirit of a generation of Confucians, he still has no way to escape.

Emperor Jiang said: "Since everyone Chen has been named, it is really difficult for others to pick up, Chen Qing, what do you think?"

Jiang Zhong got up spontaneously and said, "Don't pick it up." ”

The audience was in an uproar, and the reversal of this painting style caught everyone by surprise.

Emperor Jiang was also very stunned and said, "Ah, this ...... Chen Qing, don't you hear that 'the elders give it, you can't say goodbye', you say you don't accept it, what is the reason?"

Jiang Zhong said: "I have never read Chen Tong's writings, and I have no one-side relationship, and I am really not familiar with Chen's family, my mother taught me, 'Don't take strangers' things', I don't dare to forget for a while, yes, I don't take it next." ”

The excuse is reasonable, although it is suspected of being a scoundrel, but it is full of wit.

Ding Que's complexion changed a few times, and he snorted coldly: "Mrs. Chen opened his mouth and closed his mouth to call everyone Chen 'strangers', not only did he have no respect for his predecessors, but he also spoke disrespectfully, crooked and heretical, and even lost the backbone of the literati, which was not taken by my generation. ”

After a paragraph was finished, no one was allowed to interject, and he raised his voice and said: "Hongru gives poetry, how can you refuse at will, tonight's poem in the bag, you have to accept it, and if you don't accept it, you have to accept it." ”

Ding Que said that he untied the bag, threw it into the air, and the vast literary qi erupted from the bag, overflowing the field in an instant, under the moonlight, the majestic literary atmosphere was like a substance, clearly visible, and a group of young talents couldn't help but give birth to the meaning of worship.

Then lines of words began to appear in the void, which was the poem of Hongru:

A round of autumn shadows turned into golden waves, flying to the mirror and grinding again.

The cool moon scenery is good for three nights, and the sky is thousands of miles hanging over the Milky Way.

Looking forward to the Mid-Autumn Festival every year, every year.

Please slash the jade axe and smash 10,000 galls.

Suddenly, the golden waves were sparkling, the jade light appeared, and the wind turned into a literary spirit roared from all directions, gathering into a terrifying tornado gale, the tornado destroyed all the way, flying sand and stones, and finally enveloped Jiang Zhong, forming a qualitative barrier between gold and jade, firmly trapping Jiang Zhong.

Then Jiang Zhong felt a pressure like Mount Tai overwhelming on top of him, pressing his bones and tendons, and gradually breathless.

Jiang Zhong was unwilling to bend his knees and knelt down, so he endured the severe pain in his knees and sat down again.

"Chop 10,000 Wen Guts, Ding University's subordinates show mercy!"

Someone in the field suddenly shouted, but it was too late, I saw Gui Ying swaying, the sea of clouds above Jiang Zhong's head was churning, and then a giant axe dozens of zhang long came out of the air and hung directly above Jiang Zhong's head.

The giant axe is full of jade light, murderous and intimidating.

"Teacher!"

"Taifu!"

"Mr. Chen!"

"Chen Qing!"

......

In an instant, more than a dozen shouts rang out in the field, but they were all to no avail.

Xiang Qi exclaimed "Second Brother", and was about to rush up to save people, but was stopped by the eldest brother Xiang Shaofei in time, stunned with a punch, Yang Lingyao burst into tears, and called out the "Second Brother" who was crying like a complaint, but there was nothing to be done, pulling the eldest brother Yang Qice, who was in a trance.

Suddenly, a thin figure passed by, and Princess Feihuang rushed to the front and threw out two seven-colored ribbons to save Jiang Zhong, but as soon as the ribbon touched the golden jade barrier, she heard a "snort" sound and was crushed.

Hongru descended to kill the poem, please take out the jade axe, and the sky's breath is terrifying, who can break it?

Emperor Jiang's face was dark, he waved his hand, Gu Hou'an quietly moved forward, grabbed Yun Feihuang, Yun Feihuang couldn't, he was sad and anxious for a while, and blurted out to Jiang Zhong: "You haven't accepted me as an apprentice, you are not allowed to die!"

However, everyone knew in their hearts that from the moment Chen Tong and everyone wanted to kill Jiang Zhong to avenge the star prince, the ending was doomed.

Seeing this scene, everyone in the audience had different emotions, some people regretted the fall of a generation of geniuses, some people gloated for the lack of a strong opponent, some people were heartbroken, some people were relaxed, some people were heartbroken, and some people were proud......

Gu Hou'an sighed lightly and said, "Even if the teacher comes to save him, he can only save his life, and he can't keep his courage." ”

At this moment, a corner of dark clouds covered the bright moon.
