Chapter 1031: A Strange Sense of Identity
Everyone stared, and someone whispered, "What arrogance! The Lord of Kangle actually wants one person to ten people! ”
"Yes, I only heard that the lord of Kangle County is a good hand at business, but I didn't hear that he likes to read, so he is full of learning?" Others also agreed.
The young man listened to it in his ears, and he was vaguely excited, but he just didn't say it.
A woman saw a few points, so she asked the maid to give a purse.
The young man pinched the silver beans in his purse, and continued to talk with a smile.
"You nobles don't know, this competition is really done, and it happened that the emperor and several important ministers also came to see the excitement, and the emperor made a judgment. The lord of Kangle County proposed to set up a lottery head, and whoever loses will have to slap his mouth!
As a result, the nobles all agreed, and ten people joined forces to deal with the county lord. Among these ten people, eight of them are nobles of the family, and two of them are slightly worse.
"After the competition began, Miss Lu, the daughter of Lord Lu, the head of Honglu Temple, took the lead first, but she was directly defeated, and her face was swollen directly after being slapped by the maid of the county lord of Kangle!"
"Ahh Everyone gasped when they heard this, subconsciously covered their cheeks, and for fear of delaying the young man to continue, they gagged with a handkerchief.
The more the young man spoke, the more excited he became, "The second competition is the concubine of Chen Shilang of the Ministry of Officials, and as soon as the poem of the county lord of Kangle was read, Miss Chen directly admitted defeat, and then she was also slapped hard!" ”
"Lord Kangle is crazy? is so bold, the concubine of the servant of the ministry dares to fight?! ”
A woman couldn't bear it anymore and shouted in surprise, but was immediately stopped by others and asked, "All ten noble girls have lost and been beaten?!" ”
"No, no!" The young man hurriedly waved his hand, "Miss Xu is Miss Lu and Miss Chen lost too pitifully, the emperor stopped the competition, and asked the other eight noble girls to take one of the jewelry on their bodies to the county lord of Kangle, and the right to make their apologies!" ”
Everyone sighed in unison, their faces full of pity.
Ten people are a team, why do you fight two?
The county lord of Kangle should be beaten one by one, and he should be happy!
I have to say that people who watch the excitement are never afraid of big things......
"The Lord of Kangle wrote poems, why did the nobles lose so badly?" Some people also like to read a few books on weekdays, so I asked them out at this time.
The young man immediately took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and said with a smile, "The villain is afraid that he will not be able to remember, so he has already copied and written it, and now these two poems are being recited outside, and they are really well written." ”
With that, he read it.
Even if many women are literate, most of them have memorized a few books of women's precepts, and they are not proficient in poetry at all.
But the two poems are good because they are easy to understand!
So the people looked at each other, but they didn't have a bad conscience, and they opened their mouths to belittle.
"Like...... It's not bad, it's easy to understand. ”
"yes, it's much more pleasing to the ear than those sour shows. Is it so hard to plant the land, and you have to water the crops with beads of sweat? Will you have to leave more food for my farmer in the future? ”
"I also think that writing poetry is not so difficult."
The more the women talked, the happier they became, and suddenly they felt a strange sense of identity.
Their status is low, and they can't get into the eyes of the noble concubine, but as a result, those noble people who go to the banquet are also straw bales, and they can't compose poems, and they are slapped in the face.
It's refreshing, it's so refreshing!
Relieved, so relieved!
"The county lord is really powerful, anyone dares to fight! I love this temper! ”
"Me too, that's how it should be. Who let those noble girls with nostrils in their heads lose! ”
The women talked about the liveliness, and gradually they had no scruples.
A woman smiled brightly, gloating, "Hmph, that girl from the Lu family is proud on weekdays." I wanted to marry her as a daughter-in-law before, but unfortunately people don't look down on us as a small family!
Now it's just a straw bale with a pig's head, I see how she climbs to a wealthy family! ”
"That's it, I can't tell if she wants to turn back again, begging my sister to marry in your family." The sisters who were good friends with the woman also followed the ridicule.
is the shopkeeper of the jewelry building, who pays attention to a harmonious and wealthy business, and does not want to offend people.
Seeing that this topic was getting more and more crooked, he hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile, "Ladies and gentlemen, the ability of the small shop is limited, and it will be able to find out so much for the time being." No one dares to guarantee whether it is true or false, just to have fun with the nobles. ”
The women were not stupid, and naturally knew what he meant.
So, the women bought some jewelry, more or less, and then took their leave satisfied.
In the upstairs box of the teahouse across the street, the men, young and old, heard about it, but they had completely different ideas from the women.
No matter how they treat their wives and concubines at home, at least they must leave a good reputation of pity and cherishment outside.
As a result, the two beaten ladies, especially Miss Chen, who was born in a family, received their greatest sympathy.
Someone said, "Poetry is originally an elegant thing, how can you use a slap to make a colorful head, it is really insulting!" ”
"That's right, and such a young and delicate woman, how ruthless she is, she is willing to slap!"
"And those two poems, they are not very well written!"
"If I had been there, I would have judged impartially."
"That is, the Li family was originally born with mud legs, and there is no background, and it is already the grace of heaven to be a champion before. Now a little girl writes two poems casually, how can she afford a good word! ”
They were talking lively, and the door of the box was pushed open.
Two middle-aged scribes walked in with their fans shaking, one of them looked a little cold, and said mockingly, "How many of you are blaming the emperor for being unfair?" ”
The old and young men turned their heads to see that someone recognized the person, and their faces changed, and they replied vaguely, "That...... Uncle Li, I just waited for a few words, and I didn't have any disrespect for the emperor at all. ”
The people who came were Li Lao Er and Mr. Wen, and they came out to drink tea early today, and they didn't want to hear that their niece was killing all sides in the palace.
They were just about to rush home and make some inquiries when they heard these people slandering them behind their backs.
"Humph!" Li Lao Er sneered even more, "The county lord tried to compose poems with several noble girls, and the emperor personally made a judgment, and also personally praised the county lord's poems for being good, simple and easy to understand, and catchy." Everyone is questioning the judgment results, of course, they are questioning the emperor's favoritism! ”
"No, no, Uncle Li misunderstood!"
"Yes, we didn't know that the competition was judging the emperor!"
The old and young men turned pale with shock and defended one after another.
Li Lao Er ignored their begging for mercy and said, "The next time you gossip about others, it's best to inquire clearly, not everyone is something you can provoke."
"Besides, I am willing to gamble and lose! If all the losers can win sympathy by crying a few times, then what is the competition? It's better to sit opposite each other and cry than each other!
"And the champion of my family's son has gone through many examinations, and was personally selected by the emperor and the six important ministers, so he is naturally a real talent, not something that you can question and slander with a casual word!
"If you want to slander, then you might as well put all your mind into reading and squeeze into the big exam first! A group of frogs at the bottom of the well, where did they get the confidence to comment on the ambition of Honghu! ”
After that, he slammed the door and left, leaving a group of young and old men who didn't speak for a long time, but the frost on their faces could scrape off two catties......
