In his previous life, Cui Xian was a PhD in Chinese Language and Literature from a prestigious university.
In this life, he has transmigrated into an impoverished family in ancient times.
...Jia Shao?
One of the scholars couldn't help but blurt out, "Is it... is it the one who lives in Room 1 of Peony Pavilion, the one who caused public ridicule and anger, the one who fabricated stories to step on Senior Brother He Xu, the one who is illiterate and has a bad character, Jia Shao?"
"How is that possible!"
"That's absolutely impossible. This poem was definitely not written by him!"
Hearing this.
Yan Siyuan sneered, took a few steps forward, raised his chin and said, "Uneducated? Ridiculous! Do you know why Mr. Jia Shao appeared in the Luoyang Literary Gathering?"
"Because, a few days ago, Mr. Jia Shao was at the Hongyan Tower in Mengjin, and he was inspired to write this poem "Climbing the Hongyan Tower" after he climbed the tower and looked down at the Yellow River! The prefect was there at the time and saw Mr. Jia Shao write this poem with his own eyes."
"The prefect was impressed by Mr. Jia Shao's talent and warmly invited him to participate in the Luoyang Flower Appreciation and Literature Festival, and arranged him in Room A No. 1!"
"Now, 'Climbing the Hongyan Tower' is engraved on the top of the Hongyan Tower in Mengjin. It was written by Mr. Jia Shao himself! If you don't believe it, go and see it for yourself!"
"Or, you can go and ask the prefect!"
"If Mr. Jia Shao, who was able to write such a brilliant poem as "Climbing the Hongyan Tower", is considered to be illiterate—"
"Then what are you guys?"
These impolite words made many scholars present blush instantly.
But, I just don’t have the confidence to refute!
In total silence.
He Xu walked out from the crowd!
Apparently he had just heard Yan Siyuan and others reciting "Climbing the Hongyan Tower", and his face was still filled with amazement.
Senior Brother Jia Shao, you are truly a talented person!
No wonder he was able to quote classics easily and display his unparalleled talent on the terrace earlier.
Therefore, under the even more shocked gaze of countless people.
Then He Xu walked up the steps and stood with Yan Siyuan and others, saying loudly: "Everyone, let everyone know that Senior Brother Jia Shao did not seek fame, nor did he step on me to gain fame."
"Because of me, I did lose to him."
Wow!
