Start the Tang Dynasty: The descendant of Wei Wu from the Qin Qiong family!

Chapter 152 No need for a stick of incense
"So, is this explanation substantial enough?"

Qin Huaiyu looked at Cui Ye as if he were looking at a clown.

No one has asked him for the gold medal that Yuchi Gong gave him since he returned to Chang'an.

Including Yuchi Gong and Li Shimin, even when Qin Huaiyu was beaten the worst, they never asked Qin Huaiyu for the gold medal.

It is impossible to forget something so important.

But since they gave it to themselves, they should make good use of it.

Cui Ye looked at the gold medal in his hand that was "as if I were here in person", feeling helpless in his heart.

"Even if you have the gold medal bestowed by His Majesty, you can't..."

"He attacked the imperial envoy!"

"He did not……"

"Snapped!"

Qin Huaiyu directly grabbed the guy's hand, patted it on his shoes, then looked at Cui Ye and said:

"Now he attacks."

Cui Ye: "..."

Well, well, you are right.

Cui Ye was no longer able to resist.

"Okay, now you can talk about your topic." Qin Huaiyu let go of the guy, clapped his hands and said.

"Our Lion House made a rule three years ago, that is, as long as someone can overcome our difficulties, they can live in my Lion House for free for a month."

"In the past three years, countless people have wanted to try, but none of them have succeeded."

When Cui Ye mentioned this, his already depressed mood became excited again.

"That's because you haven't met this young master before."

Qin Huaiyu crossed his arms and said confidently: "Today, I am here to end your undefeated record!"

"Ha, General Qin, don't talk big words." Cui Ye sneered.

"I never speak big words. Whatever tricks you have, use them all!" Qin Huaiyu said.

Seeing Qin Huaiyu being so arrogant, Cui Ye gritted his teeth and said, "Since General Qin is so confident, let's ask the first question first."

"This question is a couplet, and the first couplet is: quietness is nothing, talk about things in front of the treasure palace!"

As soon as this couplet came out, many people around started talking in low voices.

The difficulty of this top line cannot be said to be particularly high, but it is definitely not low. It requires talent to fight against each other in a short time.

"Everyone, not only General Qin can answer this first couplet, but you can also answer it."

"As long as we are matched, everything is calculated!" Cui Ye is taking the opportunity to spread the pie and promote it.

Then someone put an incense burner at the door, put three incense sticks on it, and lit one of them.

"The time limit is one stick of incense. If the stick of incense burns out and you fail to hit it, you will be considered a loser."

Hearing that Cui Ye added a time limit, everyone could understand. After all, if this is an unlimited time study, no matter how difficult the question is, it will be solved, unless there is an eternal quatrain, but this kind of sentence is rare in a century, and it is considered rare. And cannot be asked for.

But with this time limit for burning incense, everyone began to become more nervous.

Upstairs in the Lion Building, Tang Jian was standing by the window with a group of people, looking at Luo Yi and Qin Huaiyu who were blocked outside.

"Tell me, it's true that the King of Peking has nothing to do to learn how to conduct private visits in disguise!"

"Look, it's embarrassing, isn't it?"

One official pointed down and said, and the others laughed.

The governor Wen Qian and others seemed out of place here, so they could only force themselves into it with less ugly smiles on their faces.

On the other hand, the old guy Tang Jian had a smile as bright as a chrysanthemum.

"That's it, tell me what's wrong with these people." Tang Jian also criticized: "We have climbed so high just to be ordinary people?"

"Why should I waste so much effort when I'm a common man!"

"That's right!" "Isn't it just to lose my head and suffer all the hardships just to become a master!"

Many officials resonated with Tang Jian's words and couldn't help but echo them.

"By the way, Mr. Tang, how is the literary talent of General Qin around you?" Someone suddenly asked.

"This guy's literary talents are indeed real."

Tang Jian nodded and said.

"impossible."

Someone questioned: "A person has limited energy. At his age, he can practice martial arts to this level, which is already beyond the reach of ordinary people. How can he be proficient in writing and calligraphy?"

"Yes, this is too exaggerated." Other officials also disagreed.

"Then let's wait and see." Tang Jian smiled nonchalantly, waiting to see how these people would be slapped in the face.

"Look, General Qin seems to have already written a second line!" Changshi Wu Deng suddenly said.

Everyone quickly looked down.

Downstairs, a stick of incense had just burned out a little, and Cui Ye was still there bragging about his generosity, when he suddenly heard Qin Huaiyu suddenly say:
"No need for a stick of incense."

The crowd was amazed.

Some people who were still looking down in thought raised their heads and glanced at Qin Huaiyu, shaking their heads. They only thought that Qin Huaiyu was a person who was just trying to gain fame and had no real talent at all. Otherwise, how could he have written the second line so quickly.

"Why, General Qin is giving up now?"

Cui Ye didn't believe that Qin Huaiyu had thought of the second line, and said with a mocking look on his face: "It seems that General Qin, a famous Chang'an talent, is really not worthy of his reputation. If he tells it, I am afraid it will make the world's scholars feel cold!"

"That's it, how does such a person get the title of genius?"

"How do you own it? It's just a boast!"

"I am a young prince, and the popular man in front of Your Majesty is said to be the best in the world. How can we, the incompetent literati, be my opponents?"

"The best master in the world? I'm afraid he was just blown away..."

The onlookers did not dare to shout loudly, for fear that Qin Huaiyu would remember them and take revenge.

But Qin Huaiyu has sharp ears and eyes, how could he not hear what these people are saying.

"Did I say I wanted to give up?"

As soon as these words came out, the door that was noisy just now suddenly fell into deathly silence.

Cui Ye's expression froze on his face, and then asked: "What did General Qin say?"

"You have heard my words clearly, I don't want to repeat them again."

Qin Huaiyu said coldly.

"Hahahaha!"

"what did he say?"

"He said he was right!"

"I'm dying of laughter!"

Upstairs in the Lion Tower, the officials burst into laughter.

Although the situation below was not as outrageous as the above, they still looked at Qin Huaiyu as if they were laughing.

"In that case, please invite General Qin." Cui Ye sneered.

Since this man is anxious to make a fool of himself, why should I stop him?

"A friendly reminder, a barely qualified sentence is not acceptable."

"Don't worry, this couplet will definitely satisfy you." Qin Huaiyu just snorted after hearing Cui Ye's words.

Do you want to stump him with such a small issue?

This is being looked down upon!

Qin Huaiyu looked around, put his hands behind his back, took a deep breath, and then recited:
"My second line is..."
