After her true feelings were exposed, the real princess was favored by the whole world

Chapter 90 As long as I’m here, you won’t die this time

Shen Chengyu silently wrote down Wen Xuyan.

His father had told him that there was a shortage of talents in the court. They didn't even know who the spies were, and now they urgently needed to train people they could trust.

The person who even Shen Qingtang praised must be very powerful. He must find a way to protect this person.

The stands on the first floor of Lu Mingxuan were covered with red cloth, and lanterns filled with crossword puzzles were hung around them. A table and chairs were placed in the middle, and sitting on it was an old scholar with gray hair and a scholarly temperament.

He picked up a pen and wrote a few words on the couplet on the table.

The people below looked curious.

"What do you think Mr. Meng will publish this time?"

"How could we have guessed this?"

"But I can guarantee that no one can match the second line this time."

[This must be Mr. Meng Xingzhi, one of the famous Confucians. 】

[Lu Mingxuan was able to invite him over. It seems that he really put a lot of thought into it. 】

[Since Mr. Meng is here, it is very likely that Wen Xuyan is also here. 】

After a while, Meng Xingzhi put down his writing brush, waved his hand, and suspended the newly written first couplet in mid-air.

Shen Qingtang raised his eyes and raised his eyebrows.

I saw the first couplet that read: The moon is full and the moon is waning, the moon is waning and the moon is full, year after year, twilight and morning, the sun will not be seen until the end of the night.

As soon as he finished reading, Shen Qingtang took advantage of the situation and silently recited the second couplet in his heart.

[Flowers bloom and fall, flowers fall and flowers bloom, summer, summer, autumn and autumn, summer and cool, and spring begins after the harsh winter. 】

Shen Chengyu was surprised in his heart, but he looked calm on his face.

Isn't Qingtang a little too powerful? Come out so soon?

Shen Chengyu couldn't imagine what would happen if Shen Qingtang took the scientific examination?
[Wen Xuyan is a strong-willed person, how about I go up and write the second couplet, and then surprise everyone? 】

Shen Qingtang is an activist and does whatever he thinks.

She patted Shen Chengyu on the shoulder and whispered: "Second brother, help me keep an eye on Li Ziyi. I'll be right back."

"Okay, go ahead." Shen Chengyu nodded.

Qingtang wanted to recruit talents, and he agreed with both hands.

Shen Chengyu's eyes fell on Li Ziyi, and he promised to complete the task!

Shen Qingtang left the restaurant and went out to find a deserted alley, changed into men's clothes, and dressed up like a teenager.

When she returned to Lu Mingxuan, there was already a young man on the stage.

He was dressed in white, had a handsome face, a slender figure, and looked gentle and elegant.

He bowed to Meng Xingzhi respectfully, "Mr. Meng, junior Wen Xuyan, come and give it a try."

Meng Xingzhi glanced at him lightly and said, "Let's get started."

"Yes." Wen Xuyan walked to the table and started writing.

Everyone in the audience looked closely at Wen Xuyan.

"This guy looks like that on the surface, but I don't know if he has any real ability."

"This isn't simple yet. Won't we find out when he finishes writing?"

Seeing this, Shen Qingtang shouted to Meng Xingzhi: "Mr. Meng, this junior also wants to give it a try."

Meng Xingzhi looked at Shen Qingtang, but he didn't expect that someone would be willing to come up.

He nodded to Shen Qingtang: "You can come up and write too."

Shen Qingtang walked up to the stand step by step. Wen Xuyan was concentrating on writing and did not look up at her.

Shen Chengyu analyzed the young man's figure and what Shen Qingtang said to him just now, and concluded that this person should be Shen Qingtang.

She moves quite quickly, and she seems to be a completely different person after a short while. If Shen Qingtang disappeared into the crowd, he would definitely not be able to find her.

When Shen Qingtang passed by Wen Xuyan, she glanced at him secretly and found out that he was Wen Xuyan.

Don't worry, with me here, you won't die this time.

Shen Qingtang came specifically to blow up the scene. She held a writing brush and wrote the second couplet. She had memorized this couplet before and remembered it clearly.

Shen Qingtang wrote after Bi Wen's narration, but stopped writing together with him.

Seeing this, everyone began to guess who of the two wrote better.

"I bet the young boy on the left writes better. He looks calm and writes fast."

"What's the use of just writing fast? The most important thing is to write well. I guess Mr. Wen is better at writing."

While everyone was arguing, Meng Xingzhi lowered his eyes and looked at the second couplet written by the two.

He opened his eyes slightly and acknowledged: "You two are both right."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes shone with curiosity. What kind of second line did the two of them write?

Some people have written about it before, but Mr. Meng was not satisfied.

Hearing this, Shen Qingtang and Wen Xuyan looked at each other at the same time.

Shen Qingtang: It seems that the second couplet written by Wen Xuyan is different from what she wrote. She is really talented.

Wen Xuyan: Who is this young boy? Does he have such a profound literary background at such a young age?
Meng Xingzhi didn't show off, he waved his hand and displayed the second couplet written by Shen Qingtang and Wen Xuyan in front of everyone at the same time.

They read out the two second couplets.

“Flowers bloom and fall, flowers fall and flowers bloom, summer comes, summer falls, summer comes and cool comes, and spring comes after the harsh winter.”

"Well written!"

"This little boy is really capable!"

Seeing this second line, Shen Chengyu was once again sure that the young boy was Shen Qingtang.

He turned his eyes slightly and landed on the second line written by Wen Xuyan.

“It’s cold and it’s hot, it’s hot and it’s cold, it’s always and everywhere, everyone, you have to endure all the hardships before you know the sweetness.”

There was a hint of joy in Shen Chengyu's eyes. This Wen Xuyan really had outstanding literary talent. He could actually write a different second line.

Everyone praised him again and again.

"Okay, okay, Mr. Wen is also very powerful."

"Yes, yes, these two are very good."

They were convinced by this.

Li Ziyi's eyes were shining with stars, and she looked at Shen Qingtang with admiration. This young man was not only handsome in appearance, but also had such good literary talent!

Why didn't she know that there was such an outstanding young master in the imperial city before?
Everyone started to get confused again.

"But who is number one?"

"After all, there is only one prize."

"I think the little boy's second line is more artistic."

"But I think Mr. Wen's writing is quite good."

Wen Xuyan is also carefully savoring the second couplet written by Shen Qingtang. The blooming and falling of flowers is the law of the world. Even if you encounter misfortune for a while, there will always be a day to succeed after the harsh winter.

The writing is beautiful, the artistic conception is harmonious, and the speech is warm and gentle.

He looked at Shen Qingtang with open eyes, "This young master is indeed better at writing than me."

Now that Wen Xuyan himself has admitted defeat, they no longer dwell on the matter.

"Is there anyone in the audience who wants to come up and give it a try?" Meng Xingzhi looked at everyone.

Shen Qingtang responded with such a perfect second line. Aren't they asking for trouble by going up now?
There is no doubt that Shen Qingtang is the leader this time.
