With so many people watching today, Huang Lun wanted to become famous by stepping on Cui Xian, and secondly, he wanted to take the opportunity to recommend himself as Mr. Dong Lai's apprentice.
He absolutely cannot lose!
Think of this.
Huang Lun calmed down and looked at Cui Xian, with some malice in his eyes: "Okay, then I'll give you the first couplet."
"The upper hook is for old age, the lower hook is for examination. The old man will test the young student, and the young student will be tested until old age!"
As soon as this couplet came out, many people showed expressions of disgust on their faces.
Because this seems to be a couplet, but in fact it is full of malice, cursing the little prodigy to "study hard for exams until old age".
Even many of the "old students" in the crowd looked a little embarrassed.
Cui Xian also frowned.
Let's just compete, everyone should do it openly and honestly, why do you have to act so cunningly?
Showing the petty nature of the family!
He was about to answer.
Several loud singing voices rang out one after another.
"The Imperial Envoy has arrived!"
"Mr. Dong Lai is here!"
"Henan Provincial Governor Li has arrived!"
"The prefect has arrived!"
"The county magistrate is here!"
then.
The gate of Prince Nanyang's Palace burst open and Prince Nanyang came out in person to greet them.
Hearing these calls, everyone was shocked and stunned.
Isn't this a literary gathering? How come even Li Duan, the governor of Henan Province, is here!
Suddenly, countless scholars bowed to the big guys.
Mr. Li Duan and Mr. Dong Lai did not say anything, but just smiled and looked at Huang Lun and Cui Xian who were competing.
Huang Lun was very happy.
He felt that the two big guys looked at him with deep love and admiration!
As the host of today's literary gathering, King Nanyang also did not speak first.
Because the person ranked first today is the Imperial Envoy Qi.
The Heavenly Official was ordered to leave the capital, which can be seen as an inspection on behalf of the Heaven!
But Master Qi didn't dare to show off in front of his two uncles Dong Lai and Li Duan, so he smiled and said sensibly: "No need to be polite, this official and the masters, we are here incognito today, you and I are both scholars."
"I heard that two talented people are competing, and I and the adults want to join in the fun. You guys go on, you guys go on, haha."
Huang Lun was so happy that he went crazy.
Because he felt that the look the imperial envoy gave him was also kind and loving, and he even emphasized that he was a "talented man".
Oh my god, it’s rich!
It’s really the right decision to come to the Nanyang Literary Meeting today and find Cui Xian as a stepping stone!
Huang Lun was extremely excited. He nodded to several big men in a reserved manner, and then looked at Cui Xian proudly: "Little prodigy, can you answer my first couplet? If you can't, then admit it as soon as possible--"
He didn't finish his words.
Cui Xian sneered and said, "One person is great, two people are heaven. Heaven is greater than human kindness, and human kindness is greater than heaven!"
Compared to Huang Lun's first couplet which was secretly malicious.
The second line of the couplet written by the little prodigy immediately elevates the theme. It is not only well-balanced, but also majestic and grand!
The crowd was immediately amazed and applauded.
"good!"
"What a great favor! Favor is greater than heaven!"
"You are indeed a little prodigy!"
Accepting all the praise from the onlookers, Cui Xian stood still and smiled at Huang Lun: "You continue."
Just four short words, but they really do convey the power of a man with a sword in hand, ready to slay thousands of enemies!
Countless people were amazed by this. I think after today, the little prodigy’s charm will be sung everywhere.
Mr. Dong Lai's eyes lit up as he watched from the side, he was almost fascinated to death!
