Shen Lang came to Tao'an for the first time, or it was the first time in his two lives to go to Fengyue Place.

It was the middle of March, and the peach grove was full of flowers, and the entire peach grove was dyed pink. Along the way, you can see many men and women who come to play, and some horse-drawn carriages are parked on the side of the road, which should be the families of the nobles in the city.

Walking all the way along the peach forest, from time to time a woman cast strange glances at Shen Lang and his party.

The girl is pregnant, especially in this dreamlike peach forest, seeing a jade boy dressed in white, anyone can't help but look twice.

Wan Hailiang, who was beside him, also shaved off his beard, and he looked more than twenty years younger.

After all, he is a twenty-three-year-old young man, although he is a little mature because of the temperament of the whole person, but after all, he is in that place, and standing with Shen Lang at this moment, he doesn't look like a master and servant, but like a friend.

Gradually, to the depths of the peach forest, the sound of silk and bamboo can be faintly heard, and when turning a peach forest, the peach hermitage suddenly appeared not far ahead.

The peach hermitage covers a huge area, occupying almost the most central position of the entire peach forest.

There is no ordinary green building, the periphery is a plain and elegant high wall, and facing the gravel path is an elegant wooden door, and there are two beautiful characters written on the door: Taoan.

Wan Hailiang walked up a few steps and knocked on the door, and soon a woman in a plain dress opened the door.

The woman's appearance is beautiful, her manners are dignified and generous, not like a Qinglou woman, but like a lady somewhere. She looked at the three of them and smiled slightly, and Fu Li said softly: "The little girl Yingxiang has seen three guests. ”

Shen Lang nodded slightly, and said, "Miss Yingxiang is polite, this is a peach hermitage?" ”

"Exactly." Ying Xiang looked at Shen Lang, and her eyes lit up slightly.

Shen Lang's appearance is delicate and indifferent, coupled with the temperament after being infused with talent, he really responds to the evaluation of the son Ruyu.

"Childe is coming to Momoan for the first time?" Yingxiang asked.

Shen Lang nodded and said, "Exactly." ”

"That's it, I'll just say that a character like Childe, why hasn't Yingxiang seen it?" Yingxiang smiled slightly, her eyes rolled slightly, "However, since Childe is here for the first time, there are some things Yingxiang has to explain first." ”

"Miss Yingxiang, please speak."

Ying Xiang said: "According to the rules of Tao'an, generally new guests arrive and have to pass three levels before they can enter. Later, because this rule was too harsh, many literati were stopped, and it gradually became useless. Later, the new owner took office, and said that the rules are good, but the threshold is too high, it is better to re-establish the rules, if someone has passed, then I will be sent to the cloud waist card of my Taoan. ”

"Cloud waist card? What's that? ”

Shen Lang was a little puzzled, and looked at Wan Hailiang and Liu Cuihua beside him. The faces of the two were also at a loss, and even the two of them were natives of the city who had never heard of them.

A smile flashed in Ying Xiang's eyes, and she said, "You haven't heard of this A-shaped waist card, but the secret realm of Yunshan ...... You haven't heard of it, have you? ”

As soon as these words came out, Shen Lang's expressions moved slightly.

The Cloud Mountain Secret Realm is opened every five years, and the entrance is at the border of the Southern Demon Kingdom. In previous years, the two countries negotiated to let people in, but this year, because of the battle of Shishan City, the relationship between the two countries fell to a freezing point.

Therefore, this year's admission qualification to the Cloud Mountain Secret Realm is particularly precious.

The biggest reason why Shen Lang would come to Fucheng in advance was for the secret realm of Yunshan.

"How do I get through the three levels?" Shen Lang asked directly.

Ying Xiang said: "The three levels are poems, couplets and piano songs. ”

Shen Lang's eyebrows were raised lightly, the first two were okay, but the third one was a little embarrassing.

"If Childe is interested, Yingxiang will take you there. If you're not interested...... Yingxiang smiled slightly, and turned sideways to the door, "Then Yingxiang naturally didn't dare to stop it." ”

Shen Lang smiled and said, "Don't provoke me, just lead the way." ”

Yingxiang's eyes lit up: "Childe, please!" ”

The three of them followed Yingxiang all the way forward, and when they looked from behind, they saw Yingxiang's graceful posture, with a slender waist like a willow in the wind, and a plump buttocks like a full moon.

Shen Lang was amazed, this peach nunnery really deserves its reputation, and a maid has such qualities.

"By the way, I haven't consulted the son's name yet." Ying Xiang suddenly turned her head and asked.

"Shen Lang."

"Shen Lang?"

Ying Xiang frowned slightly, vaguely feeling that the name was somewhat familiar. But after thinking about it, she felt that it should be her own illusion, such a handsome character, if she had seen it, it would be impossible not to remember.

"Shen Gongzi, the front is it."

As they spoke, the three of them arrived in front of a small building.

The small four-story building is built in a bamboo grove south of the peach hermitage.

This made Shen Lang a little surprised, Taoan is famous for peaches, but there is a green bamboo forest here.

"Childe, please."

Ying Xiang made a gesture of please sideways, and Shen Lang nodded and walked up the steps. Liu Cuihua and Wan Hailiang in the back just wanted to follow, but were stopped by Yingxiang.

Liu Cuihua frowned slightly, and Wan Hailiang's face also turned cold.

Ying Xiang said with a smile: "Forgive me, two distinguished guests, if you also have to pass the three levels, then Ying Xiang naturally can't stop it." However, if you do not participate, please wait here. ”

Shen Lang also turned his head and waved his hand, and said with a smile: "Tao'an is the property of the Liao family, is it possible that the Liao family will still harm me, you can wait for me outside." ”

Taohuawu is the industry of the Liao family, and Tao'an is also the same, Tao'an can have today's momentum, a big reason is that it is the Liao family behind it.

Entering the gate of the small building, Shen Lang saw an old man sitting on a chair, and in front of him was a couplet of couplets, next to which were the four treasures of the study and a blank couplet.

Seeing Shen Lang, the old man just nodded slightly, and then stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please.

After Shen Lang returned the salute, he didn't speak, and walked straight to the table.

And I saw that the couplet reads:

Absolutely Jialianjia is absolutely right.

Shen Lang smiled slightly, and wrote on the empty link next to him:

Filial piety, virtuous grandson, grandson, virtuous son, filial piety.

The old man was stunned and couldn't help but look up at Shen Lang. This couplet is not difficult, but the man in white didn't pause for a moment after seeing it, and directly picked up the pen and wrote it down. And this font looks like the rumored new style!

"Dare to ask Childe's name?" The old man stood up and hugged his fist towards Shen Lang.

Shen Lang replied: "Don't dare to have a big name, I'm under Shen Lang." ”

The old man frowned, like Yingxiang, he also had an inexplicable familiarity with the name, but he couldn't think of hearing it anywhere.

"Childe is talented, you can go upstairs after completing this pair, but the old man still wants to ask Childe for advice, I don't know if it's okay?" The old man said.

Shen Lang smiled: "It's okay, my husband just needs to solve the question." ”

The old man took out two new couplets, and after a moment of silence, he took up his pen and wrote:

The shadow of the tree reflects the fish in the pond and the bird enters the water.

"This is what the old man and master did back then, used to assess the brothers of the same sect, I don't know if the son may be right?" The old man's face was a little nostalgic.

Shen Lang also raised his eyebrows lightly, which was much more difficult than the one just now.

He pondered for a moment, then picked up his pen and wrote:

The sound returned to the empty gorge, and the bottom of the stream sounded out of the mountain.

Looking at the pair, the old man's face was full of shock.

"This ...... This...... Absolutely, this is absolute! ”

Shen Lang smiled: "Uncle, can this be regarded as a pass?" ”

The old man took a deep breath, clasped his fists and bowed deeply to Shen Lang: "Thank you Gongzi for solving the old man's doubts, so absolutely, of course you can pass this level!" ”

As he spoke, he stepped aside, took a small brass hammer, and gently struck the bronze bell on the side.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

A total of nine rings, then said to Shen Lang: "Please go upstairs." ”

Shen Lang clasped his fists and saluted, and walked to the second floor.

And at this moment, outside the small building, Yingxiang and the three of them were waiting quietly.

"I don't know the big ...... Can the young master pass the test? Liu Cuihua said with a little worry.

Wan Hailiang glanced at her and said lightly: "If the young master can't pass, then no one in the entire Qingyun Mansion will be able to pass." ”

Ying Xiang was standing at the foot of the stone steps at the moment, listening to the movement inside.

As soon as he heard this, he couldn't help but turn his head and smile: "This son, you have so much confidence in your young master?" ”

Wan Hailiang glanced at her, and his expression was flat: "It's hard to say anything else about my son-in-law, but if you want a thesis, this Qingyun Mansion is up and down, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find someone to stand out." ”

Ying Xiang's eyes moved slightly, and she chuckled: "Shen Gongzi is so talented, so why has Ying Xiang never heard of his name?" ”

Wan Hailiang just wanted to speak, but suddenly his heart moved, and he smiled: "Don't worry, I'll know soon." ”

As soon as these words fell, a crisp bell rang from inside the small building.

"Boom...... Boom...... Boom ......"

Ying Xiang was stunned, the bronze bell rang?

She naturally knew that there was a bronze bell in the small building, which was made in imitation of the Wen bell in the academy. It's just that the symbolism of that thing is greater than the actual meaning, and it doesn't sound on its own.

But now it's ringing?

This means that the gentleman of the assessment was convinced by Shen Gongzi and rang the bronze bell by himself? !

How is this possible!

Don't look at those old gentlemen, they are not amazing, but they are all great talents in Qingyun Mansion, but they can't advance to high-grade literary positions because of their limited talents, but if they want to talk about talent, they will never be worse than ordinary bachelors or even university scholars!

Yingxiang's head was a little confused, but the bell inside didn't stop.

It rang nine times before there was no movement.

"Nine rings......" Yingxiang's expression was a little sluggish.

The nine rings of the academy bell mean that a work of Mingzhou was born, and since this bronze bell is imitated by the academy, it means that the gentleman of the assessment thinks that Shen Gongzi has the talent of Mingzhou?

Yingxiang couldn't figure it out.

She just happened to have something to go out, and she happened to meet a boy who looked quite pleasing to the eye, and then she happened to want to play tricks on him.

And then......

He just happened to have a talent from Narushu?

"This ...... How is that possible?! ”

Ying Xiang stomped her feet and looked at Wan Hailiang: "Who is your son-in-law?" ”

Although Wan Hailiang didn't know what the bell was, he could also see that Yingxiang's expression was wrong.

He smiled and said, "Didn't my son-in-law say it, his name is Shen Lang." ”

Ying Xiang said angrily: "Nonsense, since Shen Gongzi has such a talent, how come I haven't heard of this name?!" ”

Wan Hailiang rolled his eyes at her: "Then how do I know, maybe your vision is not enough." I heard that you have four Oiran in Tao'an, go and call them out, then you must have heard the name of my son-in-law. ”

Yingxiang was shocked and angry, accompanied by a little shyness.

The four major Oiran must have heard of Shen Lang's name?

Why don't I believe that?!

Or am I fragrant...... Is it a fake Oiran?
