Domineering Daming

"Miss Two Zhang" looked at each other and blinked. They didn't know what the answer was to the riddle, so they all looked at Zhu Xu.

Cao Dingjiao, the only one among the "outsiders" who knew Zhu Xu's identity, felt his scalp go numb. If the emperor guessed wrong, it would definitely become a big joke and damage the emperor's morality.

Cao Huachun, who knew Zhu Xu's profound knowledge, was already trying to figure out how to lie to him, and he must not give the outside world a feeling that "the emperor doesn't study".

Zhu Xu didn't know that so many people had so many thoughts in an instant, but he just looked at the old man with a warm smile.

The old man nodded slightly to Zhu Xu, turned to the others and said with a smile: "This son is right. Clear the sea, pawns, and Qi. The business is 'Ying Shi, Wu, Bei', and the disadvantages are Yangzhou dialect and 'Bei' The same pronunciation, 'private' and 'teacher' also have the same pronunciation, this bachelor is from Yangzhou."

"So that's the case, no wonder why..."

"Fortunately, he is a bachelor. He hides his background and understands it in a simple way. It is really admirable."

"Hehe, I already guessed who it is, but I won't say it for the sake of the Venerable."

"Haha, I guessed it too..."

A group of people suddenly realized that they praised the great scholar one after another, but left Zhu Xu who had guessed the answer aside.

Zhu Xu touched his nose, a little dumbfounded.This group of people probably all regarded him as an "enemy" by coincidence, fearing that he would snatch that "apprenticeship" spot.

"Miss Er Zhang" quietly glanced at Zhu Xu, feeling vaguely familiar, looked at each other, and shook their heads slightly.

Cao Huachun was somewhat enlightened, if anyone is familiar with the officials of the world, none is better than the current emperor, I am afraid that he has already guessed the author of the question.

The old man glanced at Zhu Xu again, smiled at everyone, "Okay, the next one is the last one, whoever guesses it can take the screen back."

Chapter 561

The old man's words successfully aroused everyone's interest. After all, "Apprentice Master" seems ethereal, and a screen worth five taels of silver is not cheap!

Not to mention "Miss Er Zhang", even Cao Dingjiao and Wei Xuelian were quite moved, it would be most appropriate to win back and give away the girl he likes.

A group of people are staring at the last puzzle, waiting for it.

Zhu Xu was also quite curious, as the bottom of the box was naturally more difficult than the previous one, which aroused his interest.

A group of people stared at the old man's hand, waiting for him to tear off the white paper covering it.

"Okay, this is it." The old man tore it off violently and said with a smile.

Zhu Xu and the others looked up, only to see a line of short poems.

"Looking to the south, facing the north. The elephant is also worried, and the elephant is also happy."

"What is this? What are you hitting?" A man looked at this line of poem in a daze, completely clueless.

"Yeah, there must be a point, right? Otherwise, there is no way to guess based on these few words..."

"Who made this?"

A group of people started to make a noise, these few poems had no beginning and no end, and there was no basis for them, so they had no way of guessing.

The younger sister of "Miss Zhang" also looked at the old man, and said crisply: "Old man, should there be a reminder?"

The old man shook his head and smiled, and said, "That's the way the person who gave me the question didn't have any hints."

"No hint?"

"Miss Zhang" looked at each other, both puzzled.

Others were even more confused, it was like looking for a needle in a haystack, boundless.

Looking at the question, Zhu Xu smiled strangely at the corner of his mouth.He has seen it and knows the answer!

Cao Dingjiao, Wei Xuelian and others all frowned and thought hard. They didn't know what it meant or what it meant in just four sentences. They could only guess randomly based on their feelings without any clue.

The old man stood at the same spot, looked around with a smile on his face, he looked distressed, when he arrived at Zhu Xu's place, his expression moved slightly, and he said, "Master, did you guess it again?"

"Why did it come to me again, I'm just a spectator..."

Zhu Xu picked out his ears, feeling very helpless, he couldn't live in peace for a while no matter where he was.

Sure enough, when the old man finished speaking, everyone turned their eyes to him. This time, they didn't sneer or sneer anymore, and they all looked at Zhu Xu curiously.

Cao Huachun, Cao Bianjiao, Cao Dingjiao, Wei Xuelian and others beside Zhu Xu also looked at Zhu Xu, some with surprised expressions, some really surprised.

"Miss Zhang" looked at Zhu Xu with wide eyes, and the younger sister whispered: "Sister, is this a talented scholar from our capital? Why haven't I heard of it?"

The elder sister shook her head lightly, also showing doubts in her eyes, and said softly: "It may be from Jiangnan. I heard that two of the four great talents in Jiangnan have entered Beijing."

The younger sister blinked, and said: "It's not like, he looks like a man from the capital."

My sister is also unclear. It stands to reason that all talented scholars in the capital should be able to compare one or two, but this person seems to have never appeared.

"Maybe it's because of my lack of reputation..." My sister's pretty face changed slightly before she finished speaking.They talked about people coming straight at them.

"Like that screen?" The person they were talking about in a low voice came up to him and said with a gentle smile.

In broad daylight, the two sisters were not afraid. Before they could open their mouths, the man with a warm smile and a particularly mature taste said, "If you like it, I will give it to you. I have guessed the answer."

Everyone was taken aback for a moment at first, then they all burst into laughter.

"Little brother, it turned out to be a gift for a beautiful woman. If I said it earlier, then we wouldn't grab it..."

"Yes, yes, a gentleman has the beauty of an adult, don't forget to invite the wedding wine..."

"Miss, this young master is so kind to you, why don't you just continue..."

A group of people booed, Cao Huachun, Cao Bianjiao and others didn't speak, knowing what was going on.On the contrary, Wei Xuelian whispered in Cao Dingjiao's ear, "Old Cao, the young master your elder brother is protecting is really extraordinary."

How dare Cao Dingjiao answer, that is the mysterious and murderous emperor in the deep palace!

The two sisters were curious at first, then the younger sister glared at the man, and said fiercely: "Deng Tuzi, whoever wants your things, if you don't leave, I will have someone beat you!"

My sister pursed her lips, although she didn't speak, her pretty face was full of displeasure.

The Deng Tuzi in their eyes did not leave. He squeezed his chin and looked at the two of them, and said with a smile: "You two sisters look almost exactly the same."

This is simply molesting in the street!

The two sisters showed angry faces, and the servant who was following them leaned over. Before they could speak again, the disciple in their eyes had already turned around and walked away gracefully.

The younger sister gritted her silver teeth, stared at the man's back, waved her fists and hummed: "Forget you run fast, or I will beat you like a pig!"

The elder sister was not excited, her beautiful eyes pondered, and she suddenly said to the old man in front of the booth: "Old man, is the answer to the riddle a mirror?"

The old man was startled, then looked at the back of Zhu Xu who had gone away, and said with a smile, "Did that young master remind you?"
