Zhong Yao nodded, and asked, "Does Ziyi know the rules of this Wenyouhui?"

Hua Yu shook his head: "I don't know yet."

"However, since it is a literature club, it is natural to make friends with literature. Can there be anything weird about the rules?"

Cai Yong sighed: "The rule is indeed to make friends by writing."

"It's just that the essays of this literary club are not just poetry articles, but also include rhythm and painting skills."

Zhong Yao nodded: "Although this rule is harsh, the trinity of poetry, sound and painting is not off topic, and it is impossible to refute."

"It's just that, in this way, Ziyi's Wenyouhui this time is not fair."

Only then did Hua Yu realize that this was the case.

No wonder, when Chen Qun saw him just now, there was a weird smile on the corner of his mouth, and it was because of this reason.

Cai Yong asked in a low voice: "The old man heard that Zi Yi once had a conflict with Shang Shu Ling Chen Ji's youngest son Chen Qun, is there such a thing?"

Hua Yu smiled and said, "It is true."

"It seems to be the case." Cai Yong sighed, "This time, the Grand Master originally wanted me to be the host of the Wenyouhui, but I was rejected by the old man."

"So, the Grand Master asked Chen Yuanfang to be the host."

"Chen Yuanfang is four years older than my husband, and his energy is low, so he handed this matter over to Chen Qun."

"Chen Qun and Wei Zhongdao are good friends, and both of them have trouble with Ziyi, so naturally they deliberately made things difficult for Ziyi."

"Ziyi doesn't know the rhythm and doesn't know how to paint, so Chen Changwen deliberately set up such a rule, just to make Ziyi lose to Wei Zhongdao, and to shame the two of them."

"That Wei Zhong has a long history of Taoism, and he has worshiped famous teachers. He is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. This rule is exactly what he wants."

Zhong Yao also nodded, and sighed: "Under this rule, I'm afraid that most of the talented scholars present will give up participating."

"Why not, Ziyi..."

Zhong Yao looked at Hua Yu, and didn't finish what he said, but wanted to persuade Hua Yu not to participate.

Just now, after arriving, the two of them learned about the Wenyouhui and started to discuss. The result of the discussion was to persuade Hua Yu not to participate in the Wenyouhui, so as not to embarrass himself.

It doesn't matter if you can't get the first place.

But the trinity of poetry, sound and painting, Hua Yu doesn't understand two of them, not only can't get the first place, but also a shameful problem.

At this moment, Xu Rong shouted from the door: "The Grand Master is here."

The Wenyou Hall, which was originally a mess, immediately fell silent, and all eyes were turned towards the door.

Dong Zhuo walked in with a big belly.

Behind him, Dong Bai, Dong Yue, and a group of personal guards followed.

After Dong Bai followed Dong Zhuo in, he just looked around.

After discovering Hua Yu, he was overjoyed immediately, and without saying hello to Dong Zhuo, Dong Bai ran over quickly.

"Brother Ziyi..." Dong Bai held Hua Yu's arm and shouted happily.

"Bai'er." Hua Yu smiled and nodded to Dong Bai.

Hua Yu smiled on his face, but sighed in his heart.

After the Wenyouhui, it is estimated that the news of Lu Bu's defeat will come, and the countdown to Zhu Dong's plan will start.

With Dong Zhuo's death, Dong Bai's good life is basically over.

Although Hua Yu could save Dong Bai's life, he couldn't heal Dong Bai's pain of losing his loved one.

Grandpa Dong Zhuo, third grandfather Dong Huang, uncle Dong Min, and grandma Chi Yangjun...

Suddenly, Hua Yu's heart moved, and he thought to himself, Chi Yangjun has been living in Tongwu, and then he will be able to avoid disaster with Bai'er.

With Chi Yangjun here, Bai'er's sadness may be less.

"See Grand Master." After the silence, all the people in Wenyou Hall saluted Dong Zhuo together.

Dong Zhuo laughed loudly and said, "Excuse me, everyone."

"Today is the Literary Friendship Association, not the court, so you don't need to be more polite."

"Chen Lingjun, I don't know if the preparations for the literary club are in order?"

Chen Ji replied immediately: "Go back to the grand master, everything is ready, just wait for the grand master to come."

"This Wenyouhui was created by the little boy Chen Qun, and the old man just helped a little from the side."

This old guy is very cunning, and he wants to recommend his son to be an official through the Wenyouhui.

Sure enough, Dong Zhuo immediately asked, "Who is your son?"

Chen Qun was delighted, and immediately took a step forward: "Chen Qun pays his respects to the Grand Master."

Chen Ji also introduced: "Children, Chen Qun, has a long essay, has read a few books, and knows a few words."

How many books have you read?

How many words do you know?

Just yet?

Modesty is too much.

Dong Zhuo laughed loudly after hearing this, "I've only heard of the name of Changwen, and it is indeed famous for talent."

"This time, if the Literary Friendship Association can really select talents for the imperial court, I will definitely reward Changwen alone."

Chen Qun was overjoyed: "Thank you, Grand Master."

Dong Zhuo walked to the center and said loudly: "Your Majesty is not feeling well, but he values ​​the Wenyouhui very much, so please come here on behalf of His Majesty alone, to strengthen the reputation of the Wenyouhui."

This sentence made the royalists hate it again.

Please?
You are a courtier, and the emperor only gives orders to his courtiers, not invitations.

Dong Zhuo was unaware of the mentality of the royalists, and continued: "Now, Gu announces that the Wenyouhui will officially begin."

"Changwen, please introduce to everyone the rules of this year's literary club."

"Here, Grand Master." Chen Qun responded immediately, straightened up, glanced around, and looked at Hua Yu intentionally or unintentionally, with an extremely smug expression.

Clearing his throat, Chen Qun said in a loud voice: "This literary friendship meeting was urged by the grand master, and His Majesty agreed. It is the first literary friendship meeting in the Han Dynasty, and its importance is self-evident."

"Therefore, for this grand event, it is necessary to select real talents for the great man, to serve the country and benefit the people."

"Since it is a talent, it should be versatile."

"Just being proficient in one skill is not a real talent."

"So, this year's Literary Friendship Association, the rule is the trinity of poetry, sound, and painting."

"Applicants can compose a poem in public, then compose the poem into music, play it with a harp, and finally draw a picture on the spot according to the artistic conception of the poem."

"Poems account for four components, melody accounts for three components, and painting skills also account for three components. In the end, all judges will score together, and the overall score will be the final score."

"This time, there are four judges in the Wenyouhui. They are Taiwei Ma Ridun Ma, Zuo Zhonglang General Cai Yongcai, Huangmen servant Zhong Youzhong, and Dunhuang prefect Zhao Qizhao."

Zhao Qi?

When Hua Yu heard this name, he felt quite unfamiliar, and he was also the prefect of Dunhuang. Could it be that he came here from Liangzhou to be a judge?

Zhao Qi never appeared in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". He was once the governor of Bingzhou, and was imprisoned by the party for more than ten years.

Since the Yellow Turban, Emperor Ling lifted the party's shackles, worshiped Zhao Qi as Yilang, and later moved to be the governor of Dunhuang.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Qi had a bad idea and was hijacked on the way to his post. He saved his life only after sophistry, and returned to Chang'an after several years of deliberation.

Not long after returning to Chang'an, I met the Wenyouhui.

Zhao Qi's painting skills are unparalleled in the world, so Chen Qun invited him to be a judge in the name of Chen Ji.

After listening to Chen Qun's introduction to the rules, Dong Zhuo immediately frowned and looked unhappy.

Chen Ji was also taken aback...
