Chapter 172 One Victory!Win again!

"Suddenly I saw the color of willows on the street, and regretted teaching my husband and son-in-law to find a Marquis. Brother, I am homesick."

One has been in the exam for three years, but has never passed the Jinshi, but is not willing to go back home. He has studied in the Imperial College for nine years and is about to refer to the fourth year. Juren wiped the corners of his eyes and spoke softly.

"Brother Liu, don't worry, you will definitely pass this subject!"

"Regardless of whether I pass the exam or not, I have also decided to go home after the exam. If I can pass the high school, I will go back to my hometown. If I can't, I will go back to accompany my wife and children and live in peace."

The old man looked in Xia Jingyun's direction, "I think when I left home, the baby was still in its infancy, and now I'm afraid it's like a little adult."

The young Juren next to him couldn't empathize with him, but after hearing Xia Jingyun's poem, he felt inexplicably sad, as if he had seen the old Juren's wife's firmness in the past and the regret now, so he patted him on the shoulder lightly.

Qin Sichao sat in the room, looked at Qin Yuwen, "Brother Qin, how are you?"

Qin Yuwen pouted, "It's not like you don't know, I'm not interested in these things."

Qin Sichao didn't take it seriously, and nodded, "Indeed, with your background, it is indeed extremely difficult to empathize with this sentence."

Qin Yuwen turned his head, "Are you praising yourself?"

Qin Sichao was taken aback for a moment, then smiled wryly and cupped his hands, "Brother Qin's insight is really sharp, even the little thought I didn't discover myself, was actually explained by you. I'm ashamed!"

"Okay, okay, you can walk sideways in Zhongjing City, but this clay bodhisattva looks really convinced you."

Qin Sichao laughed at himself, but didn't open his mouth to refute.

"Repent to teach my husband and son-in-law to find a Marquis. Xiao Pan, do you still think that Mr. Xia has a superficial appearance and is unbearably vulgar?"

The woman in the room looked at the maid and smiled sweetly.

The maid snorted, "Miss, he is a man, how can he be so clear about this girlfriend's grievance, look at him like that, I don't know how many women he has harmed!"

The woman glared at her, "Don't lie behind your back. The matter between Mr. Xia and the Dongting Pearl of Yunmengsu's family has been rumored in Zhongjing these days. It is really wrong for you to speak like this."

The maid quickly stuck out her tongue and obediently admitted her mistake.

"Suddenly saw the color of willows on Moshang, and regretted teaching my husband and son-in-law to find a Marquis. Good sentence! Good sentence!"

The old professor of Guozijian felt that he was becoming more and more unable to understand Xie Yuan from Sishui Prefecture.

When I saw him for the first time, I felt that he was handsome, courteous, like an ancient gentleman.

But when the two parties greeted each other, their words and deeds were vulgar, really like a domineering dude.

But with this poem in front of him, how could he say that this person has no real talent and learning?

This is really talented and learned!
He said slowly: "Decades ago, the country was in danger of overthrow, and the old military god was born out of nowhere to sweep the world. At that time, the country still paid great attention to military exploits, and countless hot-blooded men went to the battlefield for the dream of being appointed as a general. Xia Xiaoyou's words made this old man can't help but think of what happened back then."

Everyone listened quietly, many people had never heard of this period of history.

"It's far away. Let's talk about this poem. It starts with the image of a woman who has never known sorrow. Chunri, makeup, and climbing a building, the image and atmosphere of a happy woman are written very well. After listening to it, I thought it would be a bit off topic. Presumably everyone is the same, right?"

The crowd laughed.

"But the third sentence is really classic. Especially the word "Sudden", it is wonderful. Willows on the Moshang, why did such an ordinary scene suddenly appear? As the old man said before, this woman must be very supportive of her husband to build a career, and she is also firm in her heart, so she is not disturbed by it. But in this spring, when I am in the prime of my youth, I suddenly feel lonely and lonely. Where is the grievance? It is between the lines! The sorrow of husband and son-in-law looking for a title. Wonderful, wonderful!"

He looked around, "The old man thinks that Sishui Province should win this round, do you have any objections?"

Everyone shook their heads in unison, and even the people in Guangling Prefecture had no shame in raising objections.

Everyone in Sishui Prefecture immediately cheered, sweeping away the depression of the previous losing streak, which made the people in Guangling Prefecture a little downcast.

Bai Yunbian snorted, comparing poems with this dog, it is simply asking for humiliation, something that has been expected long ago.

The teacher of Yunmengzhou beside him turned his body sideways and said in a low voice: "Lexian, you didn't want to challenge Sishuizhou at the beginning, was it because you were afraid of this?"

The corner of Bai Yun's mouth twitched, and he said stiffly: "How is it possible! I just don't want to take advantage of others! I will challenge him later!"

Yunmengzhou Jiaoyu quickly pressed his arm, "I'll just say that, I'll just say that."

Shi Zixian sat in his seat with a calm expression on his face.

They had already prepared for Xia Jingyun's poetic talent, and this round itself was also the round that they analyzed in advance and believed that problems were most likely to occur.

In the remaining four rounds, he has the confidence to win in pairs, long and short sentences, and Go. In addition, he is also very proficient in throwing pots, and it is difficult to lose!

So, he didn't panic.

Seeing that everyone has no objection, the old professor said: "The next round is the second round, couplets. Please Guangling Prefecture will play the upper couplet first. If Sishui Prefecture matches, then Sishui Prefecture will play the upper couplet. If one side fails to match, the winner will be decided."

The onlookers looked at Shi Zixian again in unison. In the previous battles, Shi Zixian's upper couplets were all tricky and weird, and they were almost invincible.

I don't know what kind of couplet he will post this time.

Xia Jingyun sat on the seat and smiled faintly, "Master Shi, hurry up, my big knife is already hungry and thirsty again."

puff!

There was a burst of laughter in the hall, this Xia Jingyun really had fun.

Just now, everyone quietly raised his opinion because of a poem, but he stubbornly lowered it by relying on his own ability.

The old professor glanced at him speechlessly, wondering if it was due to that poem, but he didn't reprimand him.

Shi Zixian gave Xia Jingyun a cold look, and slowly got up.

He stepped into the arena, tapped his palm with a folding fan, pondered for a moment, looked at Xia Jingyun, and said slowly:

"A group of talented people, both sides are elegant, how can you expect your Excellency to be rude three times, make enemies on all sides, have the appearance of five senses, and lose the virtue of the six arts. Talking about how the seven stars win the first prize will eventually make everyone laugh. The jokes must say: Gold and jade are outside, but failure is inside."

As soon as this couplet came out, the silence in the hall continued.

Hey!
This Shi Zixian really has something in his hand!

Leaving aside the content, it is difficult to remember just these 66 characters, not to mention the eight numbers "from one to eight".

"Xia Jingyun is in trouble."

Qin Sichao stood by the window and spoke softly, as if explaining to Mr. Qian beside him, "This upper couplet has a pattern from one to eight, and it also implies the details of today's contest between the two sides, as well as the criticism of Xia Jingyun. The couplets pay attention to confrontation, not only the words must be confronted, but also the meaning of the words. There is very little room for Xia Jingyun to move around."

"The key is time." In the room next to it, the woman also explained softly to the maid: "Give him half an hour, an hour, and come up with a couplet. It will definitely be no problem, even for many people here. It is not a difficult task. But the key to the couple is quick wit. It is very difficult to remember the opponent's couplet in such a short period of time, and to come up with a couplet with meaning and sentence patterns in your mind. What's more, these 66 characters imply The long couplet until the eighth. In this round, I am afraid that Guangling Prefecture will get back."

Shi Zijun, the British public housekeeper and others were full of smiles, while the housekeeper of the Household Department Shangshu had a look of deep worry on his face.

Xu Dapeng looked nervously at Xia Jingyun's side face. At the Jiang An Wenhui, although Brother Gao Yang had shown his skills in couplets and surpassed Zheng Tianyu, the difficulty of the couplets at that time was almost worlds apart compared to this one.

Brother Gao Yang, can you still do it?
Bai Yunbian, who has always been very confident in Xia Jingyun, also felt a little bit worried, dog, don't do it!

Smiles appeared on the faces of everyone in Guangling Prefecture, and the situation was settled.

Shi Zixian turned his head and looked at the hourglass that was turned over by the old professor as soon as he came out of the couplet. He saw the sand flow down rapidly, and he was already halfway through a few breaths.

Just when he was looking at the hourglass that was about to bottom out, Xia Jingyun suddenly said, "Yes."

The old professor nodded, "The time has not passed, please post the second couplet."

Xia Jingyun looked at Shi Zixian, smiled slightly, and said loudly:
"Fame in all directions and a majestic body of seven feet, who knows that the villain's six viscera are sinister and his five viscera are sour and rotten. He has the appearance of four whites, and he does not observe the three precepts. He is born with one heart and becomes famous. Let me send you a word. A gentleman should remember: Do not do to others what you don't want."

boom!
With one word, the whole hall was in an uproar!
-
The couplets have been pondered by myself, and there must be irregularities, so let's take a look.
