Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 350

"I didn't expect that there were so many changes here. So after my seventh brother agreed to Zhao Yuan's proposal, who will win and who will lose?"

After entering the teahouse, Chen Luo met the princes under the introduction of the two people. As soon as everyone knew that he was Chen Zhi's clan brother, they immediately gathered around.

This one asked about his past with Chen Zhi, that one asked about Chen Zhi's secrets, and even asked about Chen Luo's purpose of coming and whether it was related to Chen Zhi's incident today, but he didn't answer his questions.

During the turmoil, Chen Luo couldn't help but feel strange in his heart. He felt that he had never been so valued by others before, but then he thought about it and realized that the behavior of this group of people was not because of himself, but because of his clan brother.

Thinking of my clan brother, I recalled the news I had just received, and couldn't help but feel worried again.

"Gentlemen, I am here for the first time. I came here to visit my brother on orders from my family. I only heard the news when I came here. I hope you gentlemen can tell me the truth about the banquet in Xunmei Tower. Does the clan brother have a chance of winning?"

He said this solemnly, and no one could say anything else.

In fact, before Chen Luo came over, many scholars in the hundreds of teahouses were paying close attention to the Xunmei Banquet. The owner behind the teahouse had an extraordinary background and was well-informed. The previous reviews in Taile Department Yes, that is, as soon as there is progress in the department, it will not be long before there will be corresponding news in the tea shop, and today is also normal.

The progress in the Xunmei Tower was constantly reported. Xu Ji across the street didn't know as much as the people in the teahouse. Even Xu Ji's invitation to Guan Xian and Yu Liang had news here.

However, everyone did not find Xu Ji's matter strange at all. The focus was still on Xunmei Tower. As soon as they heard about Zhao Yuan's proposal, the teahouse became excited inside and outside. They were very curious about the follow-up development and were paying attention to the progress of the situation. At the same time, they also speculated on the subsequent development, and each insisted on their own opinions. There were already disputes, which caused many people to break up unhappily. The two people Chen Luo met were just because they argued with others, and their harmony was disrupted. In anger, he left angrily, but met Chen Luo and brought him back.

Chen Luo was worried about Chen Zhi, especially after listening to the previous comments from people in the tavern, he felt that the situation was not good. However, he also knew that the words of people in ordinary taverns were often untrue and could not be fully believed. Now that he saw this teahouse, Everyone is a nobleman with extraordinary bearing. Listening to the questions they just asked, everyone has their own knowledge, so I have to ask for advice.

But the result surprised him. Everyone in this group of people believed that if Chen Zhi's current situation happened, there would be almost no possibility of reversing it, because Chen Zhi had clearly agreed, and they also wanted to If there is no way to deal with it, it is almost a dead end.

Upon hearing this, Chen Luo immediately turned pale, flapped his lips, and murmured to himself, as if praying for God's blessing.

This group of people in front of them is different from the previous tavern pedestrians. They are all Luoyang scholars and knowledgeable. Listening to their words is not hearsay, but analysis from classics. Even they are not optimistic about Chen Zhi's situation. From Chen Luo's point of view, it was really a disaster.

Looking at his appearance, many people in the wine shop secretly shook their heads, looking down on this behavior. If Chen Luo was not Chen Zhi's younger brother, and heard him say that he was a close person, just because of his If you keep showing off, it will be difficult to step into this place.

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded——

"Don't worry, Mr. Chen. What we said is based on our own thinking. If any of us are in Chen Taile's situation, of course there is no way to escape, but Chen Taile is different."

Chen Luo was worried and at a loss. When he heard these words, he immediately looked over and saw a young scribe standing among the crowd, talking eloquently.

He quickly asked: "Is there any way you can help me?"

"I am just a young man with shallow virtues and little talent. How can I have such ability?" The young scribe shook his head, "The reason why I speak like this is because Chen Taile did it. Since it was Taile who did it. , then there must be a solution, otherwise how could you say such a thing?"

Chen Luo was waiting to hear the solution, but he didn't expect that he would get such an answer.

According to this person, everyone said that the situation was not good because it was difficult for ordinary people to deal with it, but if it were Chen Zhi, there should be a way to get through it.

"From what he said, he really admires my brother very much. Could it be that in just a short period of time, he already has fans in Luoyang City?"

This is not because Chen Luo underestimates Chen Zhi, but because Chen Zhi has not been in Beijing for a long time. How long has it been since the Chen family in Pengcheng got the news? Chen Luo and the others rushed all the way to Luoyang, just to get together with him as soon as possible. Chen Zhi contacted, but in such a short period of time, Chen Zhi has caused a lot of troubles, and now there are fans in all the hundred tea shops?
Although Chen Luo was not very knowledgeable, he was rarely scolded as a playboy. Chen Zhi's predecessor owed a huge sum of money due to gambling and was almost at the end of his rope. However, Chen Luo, who was on good terms with his predecessor, did not suffer much loss. Not only because of Chen Zhi's Xun is behind him, and he also has his own wisdom in it.

In such crowded situations, Chen Luo is the best at distinguishing crowd circles. As soon as he came here, he noticed the clothes of the people present and listened to their conversations. He knew that this tea shop was a gathering place for Luoyang's young elite. After all, such people are often arrogant and do not convince others easily. Not long after Chen Zhi arrived, he heard someone acknowledge him like this, which is abnormal.

What surprised him even more was that as soon as this person finished speaking, another person agreed: "Yes, when Mrs. Chen is doing something that seems to be unintentional, it is dangerous for Zhao Yuan and Leqi to interrogate him in front of him, but if It’s not that Chen Taile has already made up his mind, he will not agree easily.” But as soon as he finished speaking, someone retorted: “What can even a person like Chen Taile do in the face of such a situation? I have deduced it before, and what I thought of It is the method of turning around and entering. After all, Taiyue Ling is good at many things, including calligraphy, articles, etc. There are also rumors that Zuo Yue Qizhi once asked him for music lessons, and Liu Jin is close to him, and he seems to be good at music. If If you can compare everyone and guide them to what you are good at, you may still have the power to compare, but it is so difficult."

"It's difficult. Which one of you is the fool? How can you not see through the key point? Furthermore, even if Taileling is good at many things, it is very difficult for one person to study one thing and be the best among his peers, let alone Are you facing so many people?"

"Chen Taile has not been famous for a long time, and he is not very old. Compared with other people, I am afraid he is not capable enough. Not to mention others, it is Zhao Yuan and Zhao Junzi. That is not a false reputation, he has real ability. Chen Taile Calligraphy may be comparable to it, but the ability of painting may not be so, but right from the beginning, it was crowded out and had to be compared with painting."

Listening to everyone talking to each other, Chen Luo became worried again, but he could also hear that whether they supported Chen Zhi or were not optimistic about him, they all recognized Chen Zhi's ability, even if Those who were not optimistic about it, vaguely felt that if this were not the case, Chen Zhi's ability would be enough to deal with it.

Although Chen Luo was worried, he had to admire his brother's ability.

"In just a short time, my brother has convinced the scholars in this capital. But today, I don't know if I can get over this hurdle..."

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw someone rushing in from outside. He took out a piece of paper and handed it to several storytellers.

Immediately, everyone in the hall became energetic. They abandoned Chen Luo and gathered around a famous storyteller, wanting to find out the latest news.

Chen Luo also learned about the rules here from others, and he tensed his heartstrings and followed him to listen——

The storyteller was no longer interested. He simply said a few polite words, and then told the latest reality: "But he said that the stick of incense was almost burned out, and Zhao Jun's painting was completed, showing it to everyone. All praised."

Hearing this, Chen Luo's heart suddenly turned cold. The incense is almost burned out, and Zhao Yuan has finished painting everything. Where is his brother?The storyteller had already shut up, and wanted to know what happened next, but he had no way of knowing.

Suddenly, at the door of the tea shop, a voice laughed wildly.

"I knew that no matter how arrogant Chen Zhi is, he will only drink hatred when he meets a real celebrity! Just watch, Chen Zhi's true colors will soon be revealed!"

The man's words contained a hint of malice, which attracted everyone's attention, but they saw that it was the son of the Xu family, Xu Ji's younger brother Xu Gu.

A few days ago, this person went to Taile Department to watch the evaluation ceremony as a member of Shendu Academy. Although he was not friendly, he was at least polite. However, today he looked very angry. He also came to Baijia Tea House and said something close to Words to vent.

Could it be that something happened?
………………

While people were talking about it in hundreds of teahouses, Zhao Yuan, who was immersed in painting in Xunmei Tower, put down his pen, took a long breath, and then looked at the painting in front of him, revealing a trace of smile.

Looking at the painting in front of him, he nodded slightly, looking quite satisfied.

This temporary painting, in order to achieve speed, is inevitably a state of panic, but it can also show a person's skills. Zhao Yuan thinks that this time he has done something extraordinary, and it is just the people watching who have stimulated his interest.

So he blew the ink lightly, then stood up and handed the painting out. Two Chen family servants came over, took the painting, then stood on the left and right, spread out the painting paper, Show it to everyone.

Suddenly, an impressive painting appeared in front of everyone.

This painting is a scene of people talking in a room. There are many figures and no one is holding a book, but it gives people a feeling of books arriving, which makes people marvel.

"What a painting! What a painting! Wonderful!"

Leqi immediately stood up and praised him!
