Heavenly Seven Dragons

"The emperor...the emperor is here!"

"Oh, isn't it that the emperor is here..." After saying this, Hong Zhou immediately felt that something was wrong, and after thinking about it carefully, he immediately jumped up like a cat whose tail was lit, holding the The collar of the chief manager asked anxiously: "What did you just say? The emperor is here?"

"Yes... yes...", the manager didn't dare to resist his master, but he was a little out of breath in this posture, but he still tried his best to hold his breath, and explained everything he had to explain, "The emperor has arrived It's in the front hall, and the slave came to find you, the master, as soon as he heard the news."

After Hongzhou heard this, he threw the manager aside and hurriedly walked to the front hall. No matter how courageous he was, he would never dare to let the emperor wait for him.

The poor manager fell so badly that his ass was almost broken into four petals, but he couldn't care about it now, he limped behind his master, and couldn't help crying in his heart:' Why did the emperor come here suddenly?This sudden surprise, I can't afford to break my life for several years, I am old and bony, I can't stand such a toss...'

At the moment in the front hall, Long Yintian is sitting on the main seat, drinking tea leisurely. Although the tea is obviously not as good as the one in the palace, it is already considered top grade. It can be seen that Hong Zhou still enjoys it quite a bit. Years of absurd life still taught him a lot, of course, this refers to eating, drinking and having fun.

He came to the Prince's Mansion unexpectedly this time, firstly because he wanted to go out of the palace to relax, and secondly because he did have serious things to say, and the atmosphere outside the palace would be relatively relaxed, and he would talk a lot random.

Seeing Hong Zhou hurriedly rushing over, Long Yintian smiled faintly, and before Hong Zhou had time to salute, he said, "The salute will be avoided, it's not in the palace."

Hong Zhou was stunned for a moment, then changed into his usual out-of-shape smile, took the initiative to sit beside Long Yintian, picked up the teapot and personally poured tea for him, and said flatteringly : "Fourth brother, why are you free to visit my younger brother today?"

Regarding Hongzhou's deliberate flattery, Long Yintian just smiled and didn't take it seriously, and said unhurriedly: "Of course I have something to talk about when I come to you, let's see how you are doing by the way." .”

"Uh...", these words made Hong Zhou choke hard, then he coughed a few times casually, and replied with a little embarrassment: "It's okay to rest, hehe..."

Knowing that Hong Zhou had such a temperament, Long Yintian didn't intend to blame him for this, so he changed the subject and said, "Seeing that the imperial examination is due to start next month, do you have any ideas?"

"Imperial examination?" Hong Zhou was very surprised. He never expected that the fourth brother would tell him about it. It stands to reason that in the past years, the imperial examinations were conducted by Shang Shu leading a few academicians. It's just sitting in town, why did you ask him to discuss it this time?

After thinking about it seriously, he asked with some uncertainty: "Fourth brother, don't you want my younger brother to..."

Long Yintian directly interrupted Hongzhou's speculation, and gave an affirmative answer: "I really think so."

Hongzhou sighed in his heart, his vacation might be ruined again, but the king's order was hard to break, so he could only cry and say, "Okay. But isn't it a little inappropriate for my younger brother to preside over it?"

In previous years, the imperial examinations generally avoided involving princes and other royal heirs, especially princes who held great power, in order to prevent the prince from becoming too powerful and threatening the imperial power, so he asked this question.

Long Yintian naturally thought of this point, but he believed that Hong Zhou would never have that kind of thought that he shouldn't have. This imperial examination is a good opportunity to learn things that are not in the books.”

These words made Hong Zhou's heart tremble, and his expression became much more serious. Although there were many thoughts in his heart, he still couldn't help asking worriedly: "Is this... is it too early? Yongxuan is still a child after all. .”

Long Yintian had expected that Hong Zhou would think so, so he said directly without hesitation: "I advise you not to treat him like a child, he is smarter than you, don't be happy if he sells you Help him count the money."

"Ahem..." Hongzhou was so embarrassed by the words, he thought to himself how could he be such an idiot, and he couldn't stop rolling his eyes, "Look at what you said, my brother is so useless."

"Hehe..." Long Yintian was noncommittal, and said seriously: "I hope to discover some useful talents in this imperial examination. As for the matters of selfishness and fraud, you can discuss it with Yongxuan." , that kid has a lot of ideas."

"Your brother understands." Hong Zhou is a shrewd person, and he has completely figured it out in just a few words. On the surface, he is the person in charge of this imperial examination, but in fact he still has to value Yong Xuan's opinion. Maybe that's what the emperor meant, it was just expressed through Yongxuan's mouth.

☆, assign errands

Not long after, Long Yintian issued two imperial decrees on the premise that he had already informed the relevant ministers in charge, which could be regarded as a small signal to the ministers in the court.

First, Yong Rong was appointed to go to Jiangnan to take charge of the disaster relief by order, and specially appointed Liu Yong, the minister of the Ministry of officials, to accompany him, so that this year's disaster relief matters must be done well.

The second is to appoint Prince He Hongzhou as the chief examiner of this year's imperial examination, Ji Yun, a cabinet scholar, and Dong Bangda, Minister of the Ministry of household affairs, as deputy examiners, and the eighth elder brother Yongxuan is specially allowed to participate in this matter, but it is based on observation and learning. Lord, you must not interfere with the imperial examinations without authorization.

As soon as these two decrees came out, the officials in the DPRK and Central Committee all had their own calculations in their minds. Some were worried about the issue of disaster relief, some were thinking about the imperial examination, but most of them were speculating and guessing about the emperor's intentions.

Obviously, this is a signal for the emperor to let the two elder brothers start to participate in the government affairs, and it can be regarded as paving the way for them to enter the court. If there is no accident, after these two things are over, the emperor should arrange a real job for the two elder brothers brother.

However, the sixth elder brother is about to reach the age when it is time to open a government office and build a mansion, and it is time to prepare for the real difference, but this eighth elder brother is so old, is it too early to prepare now? Do you have other thoughts in it?

Only the fifth elder brother, Yongqi, felt bitter in his heart after hearing the news. After all, his mother-in-law was newly mourned. According to the rules, he had to observe filial piety for three months to show his filial piety, so he naturally missed this opportunity.

And he also thought that if it wasn't for the need to keep filial piety, one of these two things would definitely be assigned to him, because in less than a year, he would reach the age of opening a government office and building a mansion, and he would be with Yong Rong. Compared with Yongxuan, he should have received the real difference earlier.

But right now he has nothing to do, he can only blame himself for his bad luck, but on the other hand, he still has more grudges against Yong Rong and Yong Xuan who robbed him of the opportunity.

As for Yong Rong, he was very happy when he received the imperial decree. It's not like he hadn't heard similar rumors before, but in all fairness he didn't believe it.

Because in the past, Huang Ama always said that he was not calm enough, and that he was not comprehensive enough in doing things, and he himself knew that he still had many shortcomings and had a lot to learn, and disaster relief was a troublesome thing. A negligence may lead to a big mistake.

But now that he saw the imperial decree with his own eyes, Yong Rong completely believed it, and while he was overjoyed, his view of Huang Ama changed.

He originally thought that Huang Ama would not give him a chance so early, at least he would not give him a chance to perform until he had improved, but what he didn't expect was that Huang Ama not only gave him a chance, Moreover, he was given such a great opportunity, which was clearly a complete trust in him.

In order to live up to Huang Ama's trust, Yong Rong secretly vowed that when she went to Jiangnan this time, she must do a good job in disaster relief, and she would learn a lot from Master Liu who was with her in everything, so that she would never let Huang Ama down.

On the other hand, Yongxuan felt a little surprised when he received the imperial edict. He didn't expect Huang Ama to let Prince He to preside over this year's imperial examination. However, he still had a vague feeling that the biggest reason for Huang Ama's arrangement was because of him.

Once this kind of thought was born in his mind, he couldn't get rid of it. After thinking about it for a morning, Yongxuan finally decided to go to the Prince's Mansion in person. It is enough to know some information from the mouth of the prince that he does not know.

Not long after Yongxuan left the palace, Long Yintian received the news. After all, these elder brothers are one of the key protection objects at the sticky pole, and naturally their every move cannot escape their eyeliner.

Although the people at the sticky pole will sort out the news according to the priority, they will report the original information directly to the emperor's special account, which is very efficient.

Although Long Yintian had already guessed that Yongxuan would go to Hongzhou after knowing the will, he did not expect that Yongxuan would act so resolutely, so he went directly to Prince He's mansion in the afternoon.

But that's fine, procrastination is not Long Yintian's favorite character, he always thinks that once everything is decided, he should just let it go, hesitating and procrastinating will often miss opportunities, it seems that part of Yongxuan's personality still suits his wishes of.

Moreover, according to Wuer's report, Yongxuan returned to the palace after eating dinner at Ji Yun's place yesterday. Time has already shown that they will help each other in this imperial examination, and it can be said that both the host and the guest are happy.

Being able to settle Ji Xiaolan so quickly, Long Yintian was quite satisfied with Yongxuan's way of handling affairs, so this time, he was relatively relieved to hand over important matters such as the imperial examination to Yongxuan to coordinate; moreover, he did It is because he intends to let Yongxuan show his performance, so if it is not a last resort, he does not intend to personally interfere with the imperial examination at all.

Three days later, Yong Rong and Liu Yong set off for the south together. Although they acted in a low-key manner without extravagance, Yong Rong was still the supervisory censor, and the local officials would not dare to neglect them.

However, before leaving, Long Yintian encouraged Yong Rong as usual, hoping that he could take this opportunity to perform; at the same time, he also found an opportunity to have a secret conversation with Liu Yong for more than half an hour, and finally left a secret decree for Liu Yong, this secret decree This is the most important purpose of Long Yintian.

After personally sending Yong Rong and his party out of the city gate, Yong Xuan sighed slightly, although he was a little worried about Yong Rong, but more of it was a headache for more and more cumbersome matters in the future.

In fact, the date of the imperial examination has long been set by Hong Zhou and reported to the emperor, and Ji Xiaolan is responsible for drafting the test questions. Although it seems that the two main things have been done, in fact it is not the case at all. Well, this is just the beginning.

As candidates from all over the country came to Beijing one after another, how to arrange candidates, how to find out the situation of candidates from various places, and how to prevent selfishness and fraud were the difficulties of the imperial examination.

Fukang'an, who was accompanying him, saw that Yongxuan seemed to be very distressed, so he asked after getting into the carriage, "Eighth brother, are you still troubled by those students?"

"Yeah..." Yongxuan raised her hand and rubbed her temples, not hiding too much from this person who has become her confidant, "There are so many students participating in the imperial examination, and it is difficult to find useful people from them." It's not that easy, and I don't trust those talented people who are recommended by ministers."

"Why don't we go to those inns in the capital during this period of time, maybe we can find something." Although Fu Kang'an's words sounded like consolation, they were indeed very reasonable.

After all, who knows that most of the so-called talents recommended by the ministers are people who have relatives or interests with each other, and there are very few people with real talents and real learning. Things they don't know about on weekdays, if they are lucky, they can make great contributions if they don't keep them all.

"That's the only way to go." Although Yongxuan felt a little helpless, he didn't dwell on it for too long. He knew exactly what he should do, and he definitely wouldn't stop going to a crowded place just because he didn't like it. Do, "Jiyuan, when you come back, you should check first to see where the students from all over the country live in Beijing."

Jiyuan has always followed Yongxuan silently, and of course he is responsible for protecting the safety of the eighth elder brother in name, but after hearing Yongxuan's order, he took this task without any hesitation: "This subordinate understands .”

In fact, it stands to reason that, as the imperial bodyguard, although he obeys the order of the eighth prince, he should be the emperor's courtier in name, and cannot be regarded as the eighth prince's subordinate, but the eighth prince has kindness to him, and also He helped him a lot, so he already regarded Eighth Prince as his master in his heart.

After inquiring and searching for several days, Jiyuan finally found out all the inns where candidates from all over the place gathered, and also heard some interesting things, but he didn't dare to delay too much. Go back to the palace and report to the eighth elder brother.

After listening to Jiyuan's report, Yongxuan became very interested in the disputes between those poor students from Shanxi and Jiangnan.

Students, most of them are arrogant people, and when students from all over the world gather together, it is inevitable that there will be such a situation that they don't like each other, but I didn't expect that someone would dare to be so blatant It was the first time he had heard of the afternoon.

After Jiyuan left, Yongxuan simply dropped the books in his hands and went straight to the imperial study room. The provocation among the students was a good show, and he didn't want to enjoy it all by himself. This news told Huang Ama that it is fun to watch the fun together, isn't it?

Thinking about it, Yongxuan's heart became more and more expectant, and the smile on his face deepened a lot, like a cat with a bad idea.

☆, invited out of the palace

Seeing that there were no other courtiers in the imperial study room, and only Huang Ama was reading the memorial, Yongxuan didn't ask anyone to report, and walked in directly. Anyone who dared to trespass in the imperial study room, looking at the entire palace, only He is alone, even if others give him ten guts, he probably wouldn't dare.

Wu Shulai was very discerning. He saw that the eighth elder brother was here, and immediately retreated quietly, and closed the door, and then stayed at the door and waited.

And the imperial guards on duty in the Hall of Mental Cultivation and the eunuchs and maids saw Wu Shulai standing at the door of the imperial study room from a distance, and they also took a detour in a timely manner. Even if there was something urgent to report, they were patient. Temperament is waiting in the distance.

Judging from the sound of footsteps, Long Yintian immediately knew that Yongxuan had suddenly come running again, but he didn't raise his head, he still picked up the cinnabar pen and quickly wrote the verdict on the memorial in front of him, even though he was He was interrupted while reviewing the memorial, but he didn't feel angry at all. After all, he was quite tolerant towards his closest relatives.

Yongxuan is an extremely bold person, as if there is nothing in this world that he dare not do, but on the other hand, he is also a person with an extremely delicate mind, every subtle movement, every inadvertent look in his eyes, Being able to see more things than others, and being good at seeing through can be better grasped, this is his real reliance in the game palace.

Quickly coming to Huang Ama's side, Yongxuan didn't say anything, but stepped forward to read the memorial on Huang Ama's desk.

This memorial was written by Fu Ling'an himself. It roughly means that he hopes to use large-scale troops on the border in the spring of next year to counter the arrogance of the Raksha Kingdom.

However, Huang Ama's Zhu Pi directly rejected Fu Ling'an's proposal, and only asked him to guard the border well and cooperate with local officials to take care of the border area.

Putting down the pen in his hand, Long Yintian did not blame Yongxuan for his obviously out-of-court behavior, instead he smiled lightly, stretched his arms around Yongxuan's waist, and asked, "What do you think about this booklet?"

Yongxuan seemed to like Long Yintian's actions very much, so he simply sat halfway on his lap, leaning his back against his chest, thought for a while and said: "General Fu Ling'an's worries are indeed very serious. Seriously, the Raksha Kingdom has been making frequent moves in recent years. It can be seen that it is still undecided. It has been spying on me for a long time. But in the final analysis, the war is still a national strength. At present, the navy has just entered the right track, and the war between Tibet and Mongolia has not yet been completely over. In the south, there are frequent floods this year, not to mention the tightness of the national treasury, I am afraid that the problem of food and grass alone is not a small problem. Therefore, I think that in the past few years, we should stick to the development strategy."

"Well, you think very comprehensively." Long Yintian admired Yongxuan's overall view, so he continued to ask: "Then when do you think sending troops is the best policy?"

Yongxuan rolled his eyes, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "I believe that if the war in Tibet can be completely pacified this year, and if the Mongolian side can appease properly, it will be time to send troops in about three years' time."

Long Yintian nodded secretly, obviously very satisfied with Yongxuan's answer, but he still didn't intend to let it go, and asked again: "Why do you need three years?"

This time, Yongxuan didn't answer directly, instead she smiled slyly, stared sideways at Long Yintian's cheek and asked: "Is Huang Ama spending so much effort to build the navy, is it just for display?"

"You are really shrewd." Long Yintian raised his hand and scratched Yongxuan's nose, his eyes were full of doting, and he didn't feel any displeasure when his thoughts were figured out by others.

It is said that the emperor's mind is difficult to guess, but Long Yintian faintly feels that Yongxuan seems to understand himself more and more, and many times he does not need his hints at all, Yongxuan knows how to follow his thoughts and wishes To do it, even if he is proud of being favored, Yongxuan will do it so that he can't get angry at all. This feeling is really indescribably subtle.

Yongxuan pursed his lips and smiled, which was a disguised acknowledgment of Huang Ama's evaluation of him, but he did not forget his original intention of coming here, so he changed the subject and said: "Huang Ama, I see that you have been busy with Government affairs have never been relaxed, why don't you take advantage of today's leisure and go out of the palace with your ministers for a walk."

Long Yintian slightly raised his eyebrows, he was noncommittal to Yongxuan's flawed words, of course he could see that Yongxuan just wanted to go out of the palace with him, and everything else was just an excuse.

But it was rare for Yongxuan to speak on his own initiative, so he naturally didn't want to dampen Yongxuan's interest, thinking that today was really nothing serious, so he nodded and said: "Alright, then I will accompany you out for a walk."

It was just a simple word of 'accompany', and Yongxuan could tell that Huang Ama had seen through his own thoughts. Fortunately, he didn't feel any pressure or tension in his heart, and he just stuck out his tongue in secret, with a rather embarrassed expression. naughty look.

However, he could still see Huang Ama accommodating him, which also made him understand some things on the other hand, and made the joy in his heart even stronger.

After changing into casual clothes, he rode out of the palace in a carriage. Long Yintian didn't tell him where to go, and everything followed Yongxuan's arrangement. Although he was a very powerful person in his bones, he was not overly authoritarian. Especially in private affairs, he is often more accommodating to those around him.

It was the first time for Yongxuan to travel with Huang Ama, and his excitement and joy were beyond words, but of course he was careful to see the accommodating Huang Ama concealed under the casual appearance, so he did not pretend to be pretentious, and directly told the emperor The guard drove to an inn in the south of the city.

Along the way, Long Yintian didn't deliberately ask Yongxuan what he wanted to do, but just enjoyed the feeling of traveling with Yongxuan comfortably, although it's not like he hasn't traveled far with other elder brothers before, But in real comparison, the feeling in my heart is still a little different.

Although Yongxuan himself still has a bit of childishness that he should have at his age, but more of his thinking and vision is similar to that of an adult, so Long Yintian will always unconsciously put He treats it like an adult, and can even be regarded as a person to talk to.

On the other hand, Yongxuan has no taboos, she says whatever comes to her mind, and she doesn't care about letting Huang Ama know what she thinks. After all, Huang Ama knows his biggest ambition, and other things are trivial in comparison. Big witch.

Furthermore, he also found that compared with other people, he is the most relaxed when he is with Huang Ama, because there is no need to pretend and act, as long as he is himself, even if it is too rude It doesn't matter, Huang Ama won't pursue such a trivial matter at all, maybe the father and son of ordinary people are not as good as them.

The two of them got along very happily in the carriage, but outside the carriage, they were already approaching an inconspicuous inn in the south of the city, "Fortune Inn".

The name of this inn sounds tacky, and the decoration is also very simple. In fact, it is true, because this is an inn for ordinary people, so it is not as arty and resplendent as those high-end inns.

And most of the poor students who came to Beijing from Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces live here, because they are fellow villagers, so they can take care of each other.

After parking the carriage at a far distance, Long Yintian and Yongxuan came to this inn on foot. After all, they didn't want to be so conspicuous, and it would be difficult if they were spotted by a smart person.

Long Yintian looked around the lobby first, then found a seat near the corner and sat down, and Yong Xuan also sat beside him.

As for the accompanying imperial guards, they sat down at another table far away, trying not to disturb the master, but at the same time they could fully control the situation in the inn, in case any accident happened.

The waiter at the shop knew at a glance that this should be a father and son, and judging from the clothes and attire, they should be local businessmen in all likelihood, but they are just new faces, and they should be here for the first time.

While observing, he walked over with a professional smile: "You two distinguished guests, what do you plan to eat?"

Seeing that Long Yintian had no intention of opening his mouth at all, Yongxuan didn't hesitate any longer, and said directly: "Let me serve some of your best dishes here, and warm a pot of green bamboo leaves by the way."

"Okay, you two wait a moment." As soon as the waiter heard this, he immediately understood that these two must be rich masters, and went down to order the kitchen to prepare with a smile on his face. It is rare to have a few big customers, so naturally he has to serve him more attentively, maybe the reward this time can set him up for several months.

Listening to Yongxuan ordering a pot of wine, Long Yintian just smiled lightly, and didn't say anything. Logically, Yongxuan is still young, so he shouldn't drink alcohol at all, but Zhuyeqing is not a high-end wine. It doesn't matter if you drink less, and secondly, this person who is away from home doesn't have to be as cautious as in the palace. Since Yongxuan likes it, then let him go, even if he is drunk, it doesn't matter.

Looking back, Yongxuan carefully looked at Long Yintian first, seeing that he didn't say anything, she was overjoyed, it's rare to be able to blatantly drink with her favorite wine, maybe even drink with Huang Ama, Even if they didn't see any good shows, their trip was not in vain.

Not long after, the wine and dishes were served, and Yongxuan personally poured a glass of wine and handed it to Long Yintian, then poured another glass for herself, and said with a smile: "Emperor... Father, this glass is toast to you."

☆、Have a drink in the inn

Although Long Yintian reached out to pick up the wine glass, he didn't drink it as Yongxuan thought. Instead, he slightly raised the corner of his mouth and asked casually, "Why...you want to respect me?"

Yongxuan was slightly taken aback by the question, and began to think along the question: 'Why?Is it respect?Is it admiration?Or... dependent?But why do I always feel like it's not?This feeling is really subtle and exciting, but why I can't figure it out...'

Long Yintian was very patient. While groping for the wine glass with his fingertips, he traced Yongxuan's eyebrows and contours with his eyes, as if admiring a long-awaited treasure, bold and focused, especially The way Yongxuan curled his lips and frowned slightly attracted him to stretch out his hand, and his fingertips caressed the radiant and heroic eyebrows.

"Father..." Long Yintian's movement interrupted Yongxuan's thinking. With the movement of the other's fingertips, the place touched was itchy. Although he didn't feel unbearable at all, this movement But extremely provocative.

But even so, he didn't have the slightest intention of avoiding it. Instead, he was a little greedy for that little bit of warmth and tenderness, clamoring for more from the bottom of his heart.

As if seeing through Yongxuan's eyes what was in his heart, Long Yintian raised his hand and drank the wine in his cup, and then directly pulled Yongxuan to his side, letting him be close to him Sit down, fortunately there are two people sitting on a bench is not too crowded, but there will be a little impact when moving the chopsticks.

In front of the public, Yongxuan didn't want to act too much. After all, it's easy to talk about anything when alone in private, but I'm afraid it will be easy to attract unnecessary gossip outside.

But now, seeing Huang Ama making such a move without hesitation, he naturally put aside the worries in his heart, because in his heart, Huang Ama will always be the first , as long as it is what Huang Ama wants, he has absolutely no reason to refuse.

Moreover, he was very eager and delighted to be so close to Huang Ama. Even the wine in the cup seemed to taste better than the royal wine in the palace. It turns out that the difference in mood can really affect the taste of the wine.

Picking up the jug and pouring himself another glass, Long Yintian turned his attention to the lobby of the inn. Although this inn is not high-end, there are still quite a few people in the lobby, except for a few people who are real tourists. Investors and businessmen, most of the others are students who came to take this year's imperial examination.

Although the lobby is still relatively noisy, due to the relatively close distance, the voices of the neighboring tables can still be heard clearly.

"Brother Zhao, although those people yesterday were too much, it's not wise for you to do so."

"Hey, brother Zhou, you can't say that. Brother Zhao also can't bear the sight of those people relying on their ancestors for their shadows and looking down on others here. If it's really about talent and learning, those guys are all idiots."

"However...Brother Zhao, I heard that Li Yu seems to be a relative of the servant of the Ministry of Rites, and he is also a very vengeful person. You make him face so much. Although he obviously doesn't want to trouble you, he will not be in good order." I'm afraid..."

"Brother Zhou said that, but Zhao Xing is sitting upright, so even if Li Yu has hands and eyes, he can't ignore the law and do something to Zhao."

"That's right, brother Zhou, stop worrying about the sky here, and think about how to sharpen the spirit of those people in the competition later, so that they can return with their swords."

Yongxuan obviously also noticed the conversation of those few people, leaning directly on Long Yintian's shoulder, slightly turned his head to look in the direction of the next table.

There were five students sitting at the table over there, and it was not difficult to identify their seats from what they said, but there were only two people who could attract his attention, one was the student surnamed Zhao, and the other was the one who hadn't spoken since the beginning people.

At this moment, there was a noise at the door of the inn, and several students walked in, and the people at the next table stood up immediately when they saw it, and one of them said disdainfully: "Li Yu, I didn't expect you If you really dare to come, today we will let you be convinced to lose, lest you always look down on others."

After hearing this, Li Yu's face obviously became ashen, but he did not retaliate, but turned his head to look at the student surnamed Zhao and said: "Zhao Wei, I am here today to save face for the Shanxi students, so as not to All of you have your eyes above the top, but...the matter between you and me, I will never just let it go, hum!"

Zhao Wei just smiled and didn't answer. On the contrary, the people next to each other have long disliked each other. They have discussed it like three trials, and even set up a bet or something, which made the atmosphere in the lobby even more enthusiastic. , The smell of gunpowder is quite strong.

Fortunately, these people are all literati students, even if it is a competition, it is just a literary competition, and nothing will be damaged. Otherwise, the owner of this store may have rushed out to chase people away, instead of hiding to watch the fun .

With the start of the competition, Yongxuan was also aroused with curiosity, and while paying attention to the situation of those students' poetry creation, she turned her head and asked: "Father, which side do you think they will win?"

"If it comes to reciting poems, playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, it is obvious that Jiangnan students are better..." Long Yintian is not interested in these literati competitions. Apart from observing some outstanding students, his attention is always on. He has never left Yongxuan, "But if he goes to officialdom in the future, Shanxi students will have an advantage."

"Well, what Dad said makes sense." Yongxuan actually thought the same way. Those things like piano, chess, calligraphy, calligraphy and painting, reciting poems and making pairs are fine on weekdays, but they are useless when it comes to politics, and they don't know how to adapt. People who only know how to study hard will never make great achievements even if they enter the officialdom.

In the first competition of poetry and calligraphy, Zhao Wei easily won the first place and won the applause of many students. Although his calligraphy still has a certain gap compared with those famous calligraphers, he won because of a skillful calligraphy , a Tibetan acrostic poem is even more wonderful, and there are no dirty words in the curse words.

Yongxuan was amused by this poem, and said with a smile in his eyes: "Hehehe~ This person is really vengeful, such a perverted person, look, the face of the other party is green."

Long Yintian put his arms around Yongxuan's waist so that he could lean on him more comfortably, looked at the situation in the middle of the hall, and echoed in his mouth: "The technique is good, but it's not too late, but He's still a smart guy."

Hearing that the second game was a chess competition, Yongxuan immediately became interested, but they sat a little far away, and there were too many people in the lobby, so he tried hard, but he couldn't see the small chessboard at all. Therefore, he could only sigh helplessly, turned around and picked up the wine glass and drank again.

Seeing that Yongxuan was a little disappointed, Long Yintian simply picked a topic to chat with him, so as to divert his attention: "Yongxuan, tell me, are there any of these people that you can admire?" eyes?"

After hearing this, Yongxuan immediately put aside the little disappointment in her heart, put her head on her hands and pondered for a while, and then said lazily: "That Zhao Wei and his younger brother Zhao Yi, that Li Yu are barely qualified. .”

The Zhao Yi mentioned by Yongxuan was the one who had been silent since they came here, who was now competing in chess in the lobby.

Although Zhao Yi is Zhao Wei's younger brother, the two have no similarities in appearance. No one would think that they are brothers at first glance. And know.

Long Yintian nodded slightly, Yongxuan still has a good eye for people, that Zhao Yi has always been very low-key, although it looks like he is prudent, but in fact he has a good relationship with many students present, but from their unintentional It can be seen from the line of sight.

Although those Jiangnan students are apparently headed by Zhao Wei, but in fact
