Chapter 05 Shameless as expected
Cui Xiangsheng looked in the direction Li Qiuchi pointed, and saw Ye Xiaotian holding a piece of kiwi in his mouth, raising his chin for Yingying to bite. Yingying actually knew how to be shy. She secretly looked left and right before she came up and took a quick bite.
When she leaned closer to her mouth, Ye Xiaotian deliberately leaned forward, trying to kiss her, but Xia Yingying was very quick. She took a bite of the kiwi and immediately went away. Her red pouty mouth was filled with a light green kiwi, and she smiled charmingly at him.
Both of them were not wary of this scene being seen by several people in Qiyun Pavilion. Cui Xiangsheng frowned and said unhappily: "Friendly! Today, Jiaxiu gathers together, and he actually comes with his female companion. Although the folk customs in Guiyang are open, it is too frivolous to show off love in public!"
When Mr. Xia saw that he was talking about his precious daughter and the bastard son-in-law who made him want to beat him to death but did not dare to touch a finger, his face suddenly felt lost. He quickly picked up the wine glass to cover his shame and pretended not to know them.
Li Qiuchi continued to give Cui Xiang an eye drop and said, "Sir, this person is not only frivolous. It is said that his fame and reputation as a scholar is unclear. He also came to the door to entangle because he coveted a woman's beauty. The woman's father was very angry and chased her, but he accidentally got into trouble with others and died. To be careful, isn't it his fault?"
Cui Xiangsheng was even more displeased when he heard this, and Leng Yan scolded: "I'm really a beast in clothes, call him over!"
A yamen under Wang Zhaozhan quickly climbed the shore along the small bridge and arrived at Ye Xiaotian's seat. Ye Xiaotian had just leaned into Xia Yingying's ear and muttered something softly, making the beauty blush with pretty face, and hit him with shame. The yamen stood up straight in front of them.
The Yamaichi said, "This is Ye Xiaotian and Ye Xiucai. Wang Xuezheng and Mr. Cui asked you to come forward and answer."
Ye Xiaotian was stunned for a moment and slowly stood up. Xia Yingying said happily: "Look! Let me tell you! The real young talent sits so far away. It cannot cover up the light. Brother Xiaotian, Wang Xuezheng and Mr. Cui think they have heard of your name."
"Am I that good?"
Ye Xiaotian looked at Miss Xia with emotion, who "Song Yu is revealed in her lover's eyes". He didn't feel that she could have any reputation that could make her reach Wang Xuezheng and Mr. Cui's ears, but he also walked up to the small bridge with the yamen.
The other scholars who had no chance to go to Wang Xuezheng and showed their faces. When they saw Wang Xuezheng and Mr. Cui specially sent someone to invite the person to come forward to talk, they all looked at him with envy.
Ye Xiaotian walked to Qiyun Pavilion and saw Xu Boyi and Li Qiuchi with a sneer on his face, his heart moved. There was this wolf in a mess here. I am afraid that Wang Xuezheng and Mr. Cui might not have been a good thing if they summoned him.
Cui Xiangsheng looked at Ye Xiaotian coldly, and preconceived his thoughts. He was disgusted when he saw him, and he saw that he was not like another scholar. When he saw him, he immediately bowed over and bowed his hands, and said flatteringly, and felt even more displeased.
Cui Xiangsheng gently tilted the corner of his mouth and said coldly: "Today's Qiyun Banquet. All the officials in Guiyang, elders and scholars from all over the world, it is already inappropriate for you to come with your lesbians. It's also a shameful joke to this shameless woman in public. It's too insulting to be gentle!"
If the four words "unfairy" were removed from the sentence he said, even if he blamed him, Ye Xiaotian would endure it and bowed to him perfunctorily, saying "Students are taught", and then let this old guy teach a few lessons without saying a word.
But Cui Xiangsheng was too harsh, and he criticized Ye Xiaotian's woman with a sentence "I don't know shame". Ye Xiaotian's face suddenly became cold and he said in a deep voice: "Mr. Cui, please respect yourself! If you don't talk about your virtues and reputation, you will live to such an old age. You should also know that you should not eat randomly and speak randomly!
That woman is an Yi person. The Yi girl is enthusiastic, unrestrained, lively and cheerful, which is naturally different from the Central Plains women, and she doesn't understand the ethics of the Central Plains. As the saying goes, "Accompanies the customs! Since the gentleman has arrived in Guizhou, he uses the etiquette of the Central Plains to evaluate the women in Guizhou, but he doesn't know whether he is a great Confucian or a corrupt Confucian?"
Cui Xiangsheng was used to saying the previous sentence, but Ye Xiaotian suddenly snatched it away, and his face was dull. When he heard the last sentence, he became angry and his face was hot.
Relying on his reputation and status in the scholars, he also wanted to enter the temple as an "talented man". Unfortunately, when the Minister of Personnel recommended the great wise man Cui Xiangsheng to the emperor, Zhang Juzheng happened to be by the emperor and said casually: "This corrupt scholar is also unusable!"
Just this sentence completely eliminated Cui Xiangsheng's chance to enter the officialdom. The word "corrupt scholar" has since become a heart-wrenching problem for him. Now that Ye Xiaotian actually said such words, Cui Xiangsheng's face was so angry that he was swollen. He pointed at Ye Xiaotian and said in a trembling voice: "Zhuzi! YouZhuzi!"
When Mr. Xia heard Cui Xiangsheng say that his daughter was "unshamed", she was furious and stared at Cui Xiangsheng. When she heard Ye Xiaotian's words, she was a little pleasing to him. Since Ye Xiaotian came forward, he calmed down.
Li Qiuchi and Xu Boyi had intended to belittle Ye Xiaotian in front of this great scholar. When they saw Ye Xiaotian being so good, they choked Mr. Cui as soon as they arrived. They were secretly happy in their hearts. Xu Boyi sneered: "I lived in Huxian. I remember seeing Zuxia when I was in Huxian. At that time, I was still a commoner, but I was not sure when I became a scholar?"
Xu Boyi naturally would not expose the fact that Ye Xiaotian had pretended to be an official. This matter was obviously unanimously agreed by the officials from all over the Hu County. If it was exposed, it would have to offend many people. Moreover, the matter has changed and there is really no evidence to arrest him. However, he also knew that Ye Xiaotian would not admit it, so he vaguely told the story of his knowing him.
When Cui Xiangsheng heard Xu Boyi's words, he immediately remembered that Li Qiuchi had just said that this person had achieved strange fame and fame, so he wanted to make a fuss about it. If this person's fame was indeed fake, Wang Xuezheng would destroy his fame and fame, knock him down and never turn over.
Cui Xiangsheng said coldly: "You are a scholar in a vulgar manner? Who are you? How old are you? When and where will you get a fame?"
If someone asks about it two years later, I am afraid that Ye Xiaotian will forget his exam and even the year of admission. Fortunately, he had just finished the Juren exam and said: "The student is only nineteen years old, and he is from Dawanshansi, Tongren Prefecture. He has just been registered as a scholar this year. His teacher is Li Gongzhongyin, the teacher of Tongren Prefecture School."
Cui Xiangsheng thought to himself: "Dawanshansi? Isn't that my hometown? My hometown has always been unfamiliar with culture and education. When I was a teenager, I was sent to the Central Plains to live in my uncle's house to study. When did a scholar come out in my hometown? Why didn't I hear anyone talking about it when I went home? When I was in Tongren, local officials held a banquet for entertaining teachers, and Li Zhiyu was also present. Why didn't he say it?"
But Ye Xiaotian was a scholar who was won by Tongren Mansion. If there was a problem with his fame and fame, then the local government would have done anything in it. Cui Xiangsheng was a native of Tongren. If Ye Xiaotian's true face was exposed on the spot, he would also involve Tongren Mansion.
The Cui family lived in the Dawanshansi, Tongren, and the Zhang family in Tixi was the Turu of Tongren for generations. It was the direct management of the Dawanshansi. If he offended this local emperor, would their Cui family have a good life? This is impossible to do. You might as well put aside the matters related to the Tongren Mansion, compare his knowledge, criticize him for being bloody, and ruin his reputation in the sect. For a literati, this is more uncomfortable than death.
Thinking of this, Cui Xiangsheng put aside this matter and said, "I am a member of Dawanshansi. Tongren has always been unfamiliar with culture and education. Now I am very pleased that I can produce a junior like you. Today, all the talents in the world are writing poetry and making arguments, so you might as well show what you have learned. If you are really a great scholar, I will avoid you from being guilty of being ruthless."
Ye Xiaotian understood as soon as he saw his implicit murderous eyes: "This old guy is going to slap me in the face. If you want to slap me in the face, I will slap your face first. As the saying goes, it is better to start first, and then to get rid of the disaster!" However, he still knew nothing about the poem he wrote and the arguments he had argued. When the yamen announced it loudly, he didn't listen at all. Ye Xiaotian said, "I don't know what this poem has **?"
When Cui Xiangsheng saw that he was calm and calm, he felt a little shaken: "Is this person really full of knowledge and so arrogant?" Cui Xiangsheng said: "Choose anything as the title, recite a poem on the spot, and have some meaning."
Ye Xiaotian thought to himself: "I can't say that my poetry is so beautiful. Even if I really have the talent of Li Du, this old guy clearly wants to humiliate me, and he can use his reputation and status to denounce it useless. Anyway, I don't need to buy it better than him, so I might as well leave.
But as soon as this thought came to my heart, Ye Xiaotian felt aroused, and suddenly he remembered something again. A smile couldn't help but float on his face and said readily: "Okay! Then the student will recite a poem, please give it a comment!"
Ye Xiaotian held his hands behind his back and walked up in front of the pavilion. For a moment, Qiyun Pavilion was silent inside and outside. No one held his breath because Ye Xiaotian contradicted the great scholar's feat, no one dared to underestimate him now. If this person could really chant casually, it would be an eternal quatrain.
One step, two steps, three steps...
Ye Xiaotian walked out three steps and then back three steps. Some people could no longer hold back. They nervously touched the wine glass and moistened their throats first. But when Ye Xiaotian took the sixth step, he stopped and chanted in a loud voice: "A thousand-year-old iron tree has not bloomed, isn't it a thousand years? The scholar is only nineteen, and you are not as good as him!"
"Puff! Cough cough cough cough cough..."
Those who were drinking were in trouble, choking and coughing, and those sitting opposite them were also in trouble, and were sprayed all over their faces. The reactions of these people were exactly the same as Ye Xiaotian's original reaction. However, Ye Xiaotian did not dare to show a ridiculous look at that time, but these people couldn't help laughing, and many people laughed on the spot.
Dad Xia was banging his big eyes, and he couldn't understand everyone's reaction for a moment. He didn't know how this poem was done by this brat who had charmed their baby daughter with his perfect tongue.
Ye Xiaotian was not panicked and explained with a smile: "This poem..."
"Okay! Good poem!"
Before Ye Xiaotian finished speaking, someone couldn't wait to speak. The person who held his feet was not Ye Xiaotian's illiterate father-in-law, but the great scholar Cui Xiangsheng!
