In front of the wooden wall.
Wait until the young and handsome boy finishes writing the words "1 day left to Kaifeng".
"Brother!"
A little girl, about five years old and delicate as a piece of jade, came over quickly with a smile on her face.
The young man picked up the little girl with one hand and said lovingly, "Slow down, don't let her fall."
The girl leaned on her brother's shoulder, tilted her head to look at the words on the wooden wall, and asked pitifully, "Brother, are you going to Kaifeng?"
Without waiting for the young man to open his mouth to comfort her.
She said angrily, "Although I'm reluctant, I still hope that you can go to Kaifeng as soon as possible! To defeat those people who laugh at you outside!"
The young man laughed when he heard this: "What if my brother is defeated?"
How is that possible!
The little girl raised her head proudly and said crisply, "Brother, you started learning at the age of eight, and wrote poems "Ode to the Goose" and "Two Poems of Pity for the Peasants" at the age of eight and a half, which caused a sensation in the literary world of Daliang."
"He also punished evildoers and defeated the corrupt official Zhao Zhi, which earned him praise from His Majesty, who exempted the people of Nanyang from taxes and corvée."
"After that, my brother wrote "Listening to the Poems of the Cicada in the Nanyang Palace" and "Ode to the New Bamboo", which once again sparked heated discussions in the literary world. Moreover, my brother also issued a declaration of war to the Daliang literary world at the Nanyang Palace, and agreed to go to Kaifeng to debate scriptures in five years."
"The following year, my brother was nine years old and became the youngest county champion in the Daliang Dynasty. The two eight-part essays he wrote laid the foundation for the eight-part essay format and are praised as the founding works."
"Today, those two eight-part essays are still engraved on the stele of the Imperial College in the capital!"
"Your Majesty also specially awarded me with a plaque with the eight characters 'Lin Zi Wen Xing, Prodigy Tianbun', which is the first of its kind since the founding of Daliang!"
"but……"
Speaking of this.
The girl's eyes dimmed. "But in the past four years, my brother has devoted himself to studying at home, and his grades have never been outstanding. As a result, those annoying people in the outside world are now saying... that my brother was brilliant when he was young, but he may not be good when he grows up. They also say that my brother has run out of talent. It makes me so angry!"
More than five years have passed in a flash.
Talented and talented people in the Daliang literary world emerged one after another like mushrooms after a rain.
The once number one prodigy has lost his brilliance and has been completely forgotten.
Therefore, the saying "Jiang Lang's talent has run out" naturally became widely spread.
Listening to the little girl listing her past "glorious deeds" one by one, the young man, Cui Xian, had a hint of reminiscence in his eyes.
The baby girl in his arms was naturally the girl born by Chen more than five years ago.
Now he has grown from a baby in swaddling clothes to a cute little kid who is over five years old.
Mrs. Cui specially asked Mr. Dong Lai to give her a name with excellent meaning: Ying.
Cui Ying grew up listening to her brother's legendary deeds and regarded him as her idol, so she hated it most when people said that her brother had "run out of talent".
Just as the brother and sister were talking.
Chen came out of the main hall and stretched out her hand to twist Cui Ying's ear: "I taught you to learn to read, but you learned it so poorly! But you remember your brother's deeds clearly all day long!"
"When your brother was your age, he could already go to the fields to harvest wheat! Look at you now!"
Cui Ying felt so much pain from being twisted that she begged her mother for mercy in a hurry, and then went to practice calligraphy with tears in her eyes.
Chen was speechless, she didn't even want to use any strength!
After confirming that my daughter is going to practice calligraphy.
Chen then looked at Cui Xian, who was much taller than her, handsome and fair. The more she looked at him, the more she admired him and the more satisfied she became.
Oh, how could my son be so outstanding!
Therefore, Chen couldn't help but said angrily: "I have seen your hard work over the years. Even Mr. Donglai said that you are now well-versed in history and knowledge."
"So, what mother means is that when you go out tomorrow, don't be polite to those people outside. As for the phrase 'Jiang Lang's talent has run out', even if all the people in Daliang's literary world are dead, it will never happen to my son!"
Good job.
You are really worthy of being my mother. Listen to what she said.
Cui Xian laughed and said, "I know, mother."
Chen waved her hand and said, "Hurry up and go to Pei's house. Brother Jian and the others are waiting to see you off. Oh, and bring Brother Yu along."
Tomorrow, Cui Xian will leave Nanyang.
Therefore, today, Pei Jian and others took a day off, temporarily put aside their studies, and gave Cui Xian a farewell party.
"good."
Cui Xian nodded and knocked on Cui Yu's door: "Brother!"
After a moment.
Cui Yu, dressed in a smoky blue gown and with a dignified demeanor, opened the door and walked out, saying with a smile, "Brother, let's go."
The two brothers walked out side by side.
They are now 14 and 15 years old, and both are exceptionally tall.
Walking side by side, one is handsome and the other is gentlemanly.
Showing the style of a young man.
Cui Xian, in particular, not only has an eye-catching appearance, but is also five feet six inches tall, much taller than Cui Yu.
He was wearing a lake blue gown today, which made him look even fairer and more handsome.
The two brothers just went out.
Then he saw Pei Jian, Zhuang Jin, Gao Qi and Li Heyu, who were already waiting outside Pei's mansion.
Five years later, the four talented people have all grown taller. And because they have settled down to study, they look much more stable than before.
There was also a look of confidence between his brows.
But when the brothers get together, they still make a lot of noise.
Seeing how handsome they were, Pei Jian pretended to be jealous: "Oh my, you two are dressed like this, are you here to have a drink or to be the groom?"
Zhuang Jin immediately chimed in: "That's right! I declare that anyone who is dressed better than Pei Jianjun today cannot drink!"
Gao Qi laughed loudly and said teasingly: "Then all the wine we prepared today will be given to Pei Jian alone!"
