A voice suddenly sounded from under the Wendou arena, Mr. Wen's voice just stopped, and his eyes looked under the Wendou arena.At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the face of a young scholar, and he saw the young scholar proudly say:
"Mr. Wen, the student is Liu Xiuwen from Jinyang Prefecture. The student has a request, please also invite Yanglin County and Yangqu County to continue the third Wendou competition."

"Why?"

Mr. Wen said coldly that he was also angry with these scholars from the state capital and other counties. Their booing today made Mr. Wen very embarrassed.

"Students think!" Liu Xiuwen was not afraid at all, and talked eloquently: "Since it is a literary battle, we must completely win or lose, otherwise this literary battle will not be enjoyable. Moreover, the students think that holding the literary battle in turn in the two counties does not reflect the The real meaning of Wendou. The students believe that if one side wins three battles and two victories, then the other side can be the party to hold the Wendou in the second year. The one they win is the right to host. But if one side is defeated by the other side If he defeats all three games, he will not have the right to hold the Wendou, and the next year’s Wendou will still be held by the side that has won all three matches. This is the real Wendou.”

The officials of Yanglin County and Yangqu County were all angry, and they wished that the Wendou would end immediately.

Another match?
Give you a chance to boo?
Mr. Wen couldn't decide this matter, so he couldn't help but look at the magistrate.The highest official here is the magistrate, and the magistrates of the two counties can no longer decide.The magistrate took a look at Liu Xiuwen, he knew this scholar, he was very famous in Jinyang Mansion, and was known as Jinyang Talent.

Lan Xu thought for a while, and then he had an idea in his mind.

To say that this literary battle had nothing to do with him as the magistrate, he did not participate in any opinions, but only shared some merits as a superior.

but……

If you can add your own opinions in this literary battle, it will be completely different!He became a participant and maker, and then promoted it in the whole Jinyang Mansion, so that most of the achievements will be left on him.So he nodded with a smile and said:

"good!"

When the magistrate nodded, the county magistrates of the two counties had a bitter face, and the hearts that had just been let go were raised again.Zhou Zhi County is better, no matter what, they have already won this literary battle, even if they lose the third game, no one this year will say that Yanglin County will use it first.It just lost the right to host next year, and there is no difference from the original regulations, because according to the original regulations, Yangqu County will host the Wendou next year.

However, Li Zhixian doesn't think so!
At this moment, he hated that Liu Xiuwen in his heart. If they lost the third match, they would really go home naked.Not only did he lose this year's Wendou, but he also lost the right to host next year, and more importantly, there must be a bad review in his evaluation, which is what he cares most about.

However, the magistrate has already spoken, and he has nothing to do.Mr. Wen on the Wendou ring announced the end of the second match, and the third match will be held tomorrow.

Everyone left one after another, Zhou Yu still left with his father, and Zhang Xun and Luo Xin also went to Zhang Xun's residence with their families.

Yangqu County.

Li Zhixian looked at the scholars standing in front of him with a sinking face, and said in a concentrated voice: "I don't care what you think, you must win it for me tomorrow. This is related to the reputation of the scholars in this county. If you think about it today, everyone Don’t even go back. I will sit here and accompany you.”

Everyone was thinking about it with bitter faces and furrowed brows, but they couldn't think of a problem that could be difficult.The third game has no scope, but you can solve all the questions you think of yourself. Will this make it difficult for scholars in Yanglin County?

Li Zhixian stood up and said to the county magistrate next to him: "Brother Ping, you stay here and watch, I'll go and entertain Mr. Chief Political Envoy."

"Yes!"

Li Zhixian shook his head, and hurriedly walked towards the door.

The atmosphere in Yanglin County was lively. Zhouzhi County didn't let the scholars in the county think about the third question. Anyway, it doesn't matter if they lose the third game.The Zhou magistrate wanted to hold a banquet in the largest restaurant in the county to entertain various officials and celebrities. During the banquet, someone proposed to invite Luo Xin, but the magistrate waved his hand and stopped him:

"Let's wait until the end of the third round to celebrate the little hero!"

Everyone laughed.

Zhang Xun's house was also full of excitement, Luo Heng looked at Luo Xin differently.At this time, he firmly believed that his grandson would have no problem becoming a scholar. As for becoming a Juren, he did not dare to think about it.But even so, the attitude towards Luo Ping and his wife has changed.Because he could see that Luo Xin cared about his parents very much, but he was a little alienated from him as a grandfather.

Luo Ye was much more kind to Luo Xin, and Luo Sheng looked at Luo Xin with little stars in his eyes.Children's mentality changes very quickly, and Daming people have a natural awe for scholars.

Zhang Shu, Lin Chang, and Luo Zhi were even more excited. Under the excitement, the three drank too much, recited poems, and sang songs, leaving Luo Xin and Zhang Xun speechless for a while.

In the backyard of the county government office in Yangqu County, Lizhi County returned in a hurry.As soon as he finished drinking with him, he had something on his mind, so he rushed back in a hurry.As soon as he entered the backyard, he asked:

"But figured it out?"

Everyone bowed their heads in silence, he was so angry that he just tossed his sleeves, sat on the chair, panting.At this time, the county magistrate came over and whispered:

"My lord, I think we should change our thinking."

"What idea?" Li Zhixian raised his eyelids, a little listless, and said angrily: "It's really suffocating to let old man Zhou overwhelm me this time."

"My lord, as long as we can win this third game, it won't be a shame."

"It's simple!" Li Zhixian picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, spit out the cold tea on the ground in one gulp, and said to a yamen servant with a gloomy face:
"I don't know if the tea is cold?"

"Change the little one right away!"

The yamen servant hurriedly picked up the teacup and left. Li Zhixian glanced at the county magistrate, and said with anger:
"Talk about your thinking first."

The county magistrate hurriedly said: "We shouldn't think about the problems we know, the problems that we can all solve, presumably Yanglin County can also solve them, we should think about what can't be solved in this county, the harder the better, in this way It may be difficult to live in Yanglin County."

Li Zhixian stroked his beard and thought for a while, then nodded and said: "That's a good idea, by the way, is there any unresolved problem in our county? The longer the delay, the better. But..."

At this point, his tone paused, hesitation appeared on his face and he said: "You can't let the scholars from Yanglin County decide the case, right? Isn't this a bit too child's play?"

"Of course you can't!" The magistrate shook his head and said, "I just remembered one thing..."

The county magistrate whispered in Li Zhixian's ear, and Li Zhixian's eyes gradually lit up...
