Dao fruit.

Wen Zhizhen, a talented man from the south of the Yangtze River, has been in the limelight tonight. Along the way, whether it is looking at the lights on the road, guessing riddles along the way, or the current attic literary meeting, he is the focus of everyone's attention.

But after hearing what Qi Jiulian and others said, he got rid of the compliments from everyone and came over to ask about Qiu Yan.

It can be seen that his expression is a little stiff.

It's no wonder that even though Wen Zhizhen has been in the south of the Yangtze River, he has heard of Bai Zhaoyuan's name for a long time, and he knows that he is a leader of the younger generation. Opponents are going to stage a fight between dragons and tigers.

Therefore, after Wen Zhizhen met Bai Zhaoyuan's Yima, although he knew that the other party had gained a lot in Shilin, he was not afraid. It must be known that he also had his own encounter in Jiangnan.

It is to meet the opponent in order to show one's ability.

But at this time, an unexpected person appeared, standing side by side with Bai Zhaoyuan in the night sky, looking like a horse to ape!

Just looking at the reactions of several homeowners, Wen Zhizhen knew that his all-night limelight had been completely suppressed by this short scene!

How could he tolerate such a thing happening?

"Are you going to find Qiu Yan too?" Qi Jiulian frowned, and sneered, "Shouldn't a great talent like you stay here, outshine the others, and leave a good story behind? What are you going to do with Qiu Yan? "

Qi Jiulian became famous at a young age, so he was inevitably proud of his talent. When he was invited by the Zhang family in Jiannan, he met Qiu Yan by accident. She still regards Qiu Yan as her opponent and target, but deep down in her heart, she also has admiration.

Calligraphy is his ability to look down on others. He was defeated in the most proud aspect, but he got pointers. After returning, he went a step further in calligraphy.

In contrast, losing to Wen Zhizhen tonight, but the other party looked superior, which aroused Qi Jiulian's rebellious psychology, especially after comparing with Qiu Yan, he felt that this Wen Zhizhen was far more generous than the If you don't go to Qiu Yan, you don't have the slightest favor.

As soon as he finished speaking, Pang Qianru's voice came from next to his ear: "Qi Jiulian, please be more polite, Mr. Wen has already surpassed all the others tonight, leaving a good story."

Wen Zhizhen shook his head and said: "Miss Pang was joking, Wen Mou just felt something in his heart today, so he can't be regarded as a master of skills, all of you present are rare talents, virtuous talents of the country, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting can cultivate sentiment, Poetry and poetry can be seen in the heart, but my generation reads books for the purpose of showing off my ambitions, and I really have to distinguish between high and low, and I have to wait until the exam to see the difference."

Although Pang Qianru is dressed like a man, she can't hide her beauty. She is a rare beauty. When she comes here, she naturally attracts people's attention, and the scholars around will sneak a glance or two from time to time, so she said "technical Overwhelm the crowd", the other scholars also heard clearly.

At this time, Wen Zhizhen's words made everyone feel happy after listening to them, and their favorability for him greatly increased.

"Mr. Wen is so humble and personable." After hearing this, Xu Ran looked at Wen Zhizhen's figure, Xia Fei's cheeks, and her eyes sparkled.

"Hmph! Hypocrisy!" Qi Jiulian snorted coldly. He didn't have much achievements in the classics and righteousness of articles. What he is best at is calligraphy instead. Are you dismissing calligraphy as a small way? I don’t argue with you. Since we want to see the result in the imperial examination, why should we introduce Qiu Yan? Just wait for another half a month, and you will meet Qiu Yan in the imperial examination. Wouldn't it be nice to meet friends by writing, and to distinguish between high and low by the way?"

As he spoke, he lowered his voice and laughed lowly: "Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking. After seeing the light and shadow of the giant ape, I know that Qiu Yan is about to become famous, so you want to use him as a stepping stone?"

"Wen has a good name, and there is nothing to hide." Wen Zhizhen shook his head, acting like a gentleman, "However, that Mr. Qiu showed his skills when Bai Zhaoyuan was driving Yima, and made a countermeasure against each other. The appearance is not necessarily deliberate, in order to strengthen the momentum."

Pang Qianru also said: "Well, that's the reason. Qiu Yan didn't make a move early or late, but waited until Bai Zhaoyuan's identity was revealed, and then took advantage of the opportunity to show up. Maybe he wanted to take advantage of the wind, and I see him in Dongdu. After some actions, it's not like I didn't have the intention to gain momentum." When she was speaking, she glanced at Song Qian.

Qi Jiulian said sternly: "It's natural to practice self-cultivation and learning, and gain fame after practicing the world; but learning without the heart of inquiry, and using talent and learning as a tool to get famous, is deliberate. What else is there besides a little vanity?"

Pang Qianru looked surprised, stared at Qi Jiulian, and then said: "You can say such a truth, I want to give you a new look."

The solemn look on Qi Jiulian's face dissipated, he scratched his head and said, "This is actually what my grandfather said, I just keep it in my heart."

Pang Qianru nodded and laughed: "Mr. Taixu's words are to persuade you to learn, not to let you just indulge in calligraphy."

Qi Jiulian's face suddenly turned ugly.

At this time, Xu Ran finally couldn't help but say: "Where is the Qiu Yan you are talking about? Is this person very powerful?" She couldn't help but glance at Ji Zheng.

She listened to everyone's words verbatim, and she didn't realize it at first, but she soon remembered that the person Ji Zheng asked her to find was named Qiu Yan?

However, there is one thing that Xu Ran can't figure out. Tonight, it is Wen Zhizhen who is showing his talents, and the people around him are all pretending to be stars, to compliment Wen Zhizhen. Why do these people around him suddenly Speaking of Qiu Yan, especially Qi Jiulian, the meaning in his words is clearly praising Qiu Yan and belittling Wen Zhizhen, how can this please her?

Immediately, Xu Ran felt sorry for Wen Zhizhen: "Then Qiu Yan is so powerful, why didn't he even come to the Wenhui? Don't you know that this is a rare opportunity? You can get advice from many directors, and you can exchange ideas with other people. Learning, can you still listen to Mr. Wen's masterpiece?" As she spoke, she thought of Ji Zheng, so she kept silent, but the expression of dissatisfaction on her face did not hold back at all.

In fact, not only Xu Ran, but also many scholars, Confucian scholars, and Juzi who admired him most after Wen Zhizhen came over, also heard the conversation between Qi Jiulian, Pang Qianru and Wen Zhizhen, They also felt that Qi Jiulian was exaggerating.

"Could it be that the Qiu Yan you're talking about is the one who had a discussion with He Shuchang in Dongdu a while ago. He is very eloquent, but he may not have real talent."

"Oh? I've also heard of this name. It is said that it is favored by Mr. Chen. It must not be a vain name to be valued by Mr. Chen. It is just that he did not enter the academy. It is probably the result of hard study. Humans only know the poor and the bright.”

"That's not true. I came from Jiannan. This Qiu Yan is Jiannan Jieyuan. Apart from his good knowledge, his calligraphy skills are also amazing. Mr. Yuanning Zhang cherishes his calligraphy very much and refuses to show it to others. I I was lucky enough to see it once, it is really extraordinary, even if compared to Mr. Wen's two works today, it is not too much..."

……

Everyone was discussing like this, many people were filled with righteous indignation at the beginning, but as you said each sentence, you actually described a character with profound knowledge, amazing calligraphy, and unparalleled eloquence, and the atmosphere gradually became weird.

"According to this, this Qiu Yan is not an ordinary person, why didn't he come to the Wenhui today?"

Qi Jiulian was listening to the fun, and couldn't help laughing. Looking at Xu Ran who was embarrassed and upset, he said, "How is it? If you still don't accept it, don't go to Qiu Yan now, to save the impact. He prepares for the exam, and when it comes time for the imperial examination, it will be clear at a glance who is better."

"Even if this Qiu Yan is powerful, what does it have to do with you?" Xu Ran frowned, and couldn't help but sarcastically said, "Didn't you still lose to Mr. Wen?"

Qi Jiulian immediately blushed, noticed the eyes of the people around him, and felt a little bit hard to step down, and finally he could only say: "Qiu Yan once taught me some experience, so that I can study hard. If this imperial examination, Qiu Yan surpassed Besides, if I study his experience in the future, I may not be able to win against Wen Zhizhen!"

Xu Ran frowned, and was about to say more, but there was a gentle voice from the side——

"You guys know a lot about this Qiu Yan, can you tell me something about it?"

A few people followed the sound, but their target was the principals, who came over at some time, and the leader was a refined man in his 40s.

Xingjing is the same as Dongdu. It is a place where great auspiciousness gathers. There are many academies, there are also great Confucianism sitting in the town, and there are sages and sages. However, these academies are located in the capital and have many ties to the forces of the court. To avoid involvement, anyone who can be called People who have studied Confucianism will not easily be the head of the hospital.

Therefore, the principals who appeared here are not people with amazing literary skills, but most of them are outstanding people who have condensed their literary hearts, representing the trend of Xingjing's literary world. stand up.

However, before Qi Jiulian and the others elaborated, there were a few exclamations from the crowd——

"Old Xiangguo Zhang!"

But someone suddenly noticed that at the stairs in the attic, someone was helping this old man to walk up slowly. The old man looked haggard, but his eyes were piercing.

"It turns out that the rumors are true, there really is Zai Zhi coming to judge Pinwen!"

The next moment, the scholars present were all excited, and some of them were active. After seeing Zhang Lian, they thought of other things.

"The examination is just around the corner, and the ministers will not easily contact the examinees and candidates unless the examiner who presides over the examination is selected..."

In the different thoughts of everyone, the chain slowly opened its mouth——

"Let me tell this old man about Qiu Yan." (To be continued. Please search, the novel is better and updated faster!)
