Chapter 241 Ask Two Talented Scholars to Talk First

Xiao Shumo felt that his face was radiant, and he smiled triumphantly: "The prize is provided by me, and if I will be the judge again, someone will probably say there is an inside story."

Immediately, someone flattered and said: "How could it be, Mr. Xiao has always been generous and fair. No one of us literati knows Mr. Xiao's character, and no one will doubt it."

Xiao Shumo smiled and said: "Although I say that, it's really unfair for me to be the judge alone. The shopkeeper?"

The shopkeeper hurried over.

Xiao Shumo asked: "Where is your pavilion master?"

The owner of the Xiangyu Bamboo Pavilion is also a person who loves elegance, so he opened this teahouse. The shopkeeper said with a smile: "Please wait a moment, I will go to the third floor to invite the shopkeeper."

Someone suggested: "Your Prime Minister also came just now, why don't you come down together. Prime Minister Right is a well-known talent in our Holy Emperor's Dynasty."

The shopkeeper agreed: "The villain will invite you together."

The shopkeeper went up to the third floor first, and a thin white man came out slowly with the help of his servants. He was obviously only in his twenties, but his face was abnormally pale, but there was a warm smile on his face .

Seemingly sick and weak, this smile makes people feel comforted and bitter.

The shopkeeper went to the second floor to invite Xing Yujie. Xing Yujie had heard the discussion below and heard the shopkeeper's invitation, so he came down with Huo Xue and Qian Huan.

Because the pavilion master is not in good health, he has to move slowly, so although Xing Yujie was called late, he arrived early.

The two judges came down one after another, and the scholars hurriedly got up and bowed their hands: "I have met the right minister, the master of Qingyou Pavilion."

Xing Yujie was used to being easy-going, and said, "You don't need to be polite."

Everyone's eyes naturally fell on the two people beside Xing Yujie. After looking at them for a while, although the two were indeed handsome, they were all scholars. In their eyes, their appearance was just a pair of skins. They look down on it.Looking proudly at the two of them, Xiao Shumo said, "I'm not talented, and they will be selected as judges to judge their poems with the two talented scholars."

The two knew his character well, and Xing Yujie said, "It's easy to say."

Qingyou may be due to illness and weakness, her voice is slightly lower and slower: "Let's start."

The servants helped Qingyou to sit down, and Xing Yujie and Xiao Shumo also sat down respectively.On the contrary, Huoxue was too bored to sit and wanted to stand for a while, so she stood beside Xing Yujie. For some reason, Qian Huan didn't sit down either, and stood side by side with Huoxue.

The rest of the scholars gathered in a big circle. Fortunately, although there were many participants, everyone knew how to be humble.One after another, every time someone finished shaking their heads, the crowd would burst into applause: "Good!"

Xing Yujie couldn't listen to it anymore. The level of this poem is really... so ordinary, it can barely be called poetry.

That's right, how can a real genius spend his time in teahouses every day, either studying hard in cold windows, or participating in more elegant poetry clubs, or traveling around...

Those in teahouses are nothing more than idlers, and they are a little better than those written in doggerel.

Looking at Qingyou, the smile on that face has faded away, her eyes are downcast and covered by long eyelashes, she doesn't have any expression on her face, she probably isn't very happy.

Only Xiao Shumo was in high spirits, and when he saw who cheered louder, he would say: "Well, this one is not bad." Looking at the two judges next to him, they didn't respond to him, and he didn't care.

After finishing one by one, Xiao Shumo said: "In order to avoid suspicion, let's ask the two talents to talk first."
