Chapter 81 Just a little understanding

When Zeng Zilou stood up, his eyes were attracted by several tables around him.

The scenes that were originally talking to each other became a little quiet.

I couldn't hear the movement here even further, but I also noticed the abnormality and asked the table.

Although officials from Chen State were dissatisfied with Zeng Zilou's rash behavior, they were not able to say anything after all.

The Lord Li looked at him and asked, "I wonder what the first couplet is?"

"When I was reading the Book of Songs a few days ago, I saw a sentence like this, "The phoenix sings, on the high hills, on the wutong tree, on the rising sun." Zeng Zilou looked at him and smiled and said, "The phoenix is ​​not a wutong tree. When I saw this, I suddenly got a couplet in my heart. Please listen, Lord Li."

He showed a thoughtful look on his face, cleared his throat, and said, "My first couplet is, "The phoenix falls from the phoenix falls from the purse tree and the purse falls from the phoenix."

Once the first couplet of Zengzilou was spoken out, it was quickly transmitted from several adjacent tables to the rear.

After hearing the first couplet, the Lingzhou Juzi present subconsciously began to think.

This is not a simple couplet, it is a palindrome pair.

The so-called palindrome pair means that the couplet is read in a straight or inverted manner, both of which are the same couplet. In addition to the artistic conception of level and tone, the second couplet must also be palindrome paired.

These points add up, it is not so good.

At the table in front, someone looked at Xu Qingyang and asked, "Qingyang, you are good at couplets, how about this couplet?"

"It's hard to say." Xu Qingyang shook his head and said, "It's difficult to go back to the Federation of Literary and Art Circles, but it's not absolute. It depends on that Lord Li."

The man asked again, "Are you right?"

Xu Qingyang nodded and said, "Only one is right."

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Lord Li and suddenly became nervous.

This is not a common competition between the people. This is a competition between the Chu State and the scholars of Chen State. If his couplets do not stump the other party, it will not only lose the face of Zeng Zilou, but also the face of Lingzhou scholars, officials of Chen State, and even Chen State.

Zeng Zilou looked at Lord Li, and saw that he had a calm expression and no hint of embarrassment. His originally stable heart suddenly became nervous.

Soon he calmed down again. The difficulty of reading the literary and literary circles lies in the reading text. He thought for a long time but did not come up with a suitable second couplet, and he didn't believe it at all. The other party could match a second couplet in such a short time.

When he thought of this, the voice of Lord Li had already heard in his ears.

"The phoenix falls from the paulownia tree and the phoenix falls from the paulownia, and the pearls are connected together." The handsome young man thought for a while and said again: "The mountains are connected to the water, the moon is connected to the mountains; the boat follows the waves and the waves; the wind shakes the willow catkins and willows shake the wind..."

"It's impolite to come but not come." Mr. Li looked at him and said, "Not long ago, I occasionally wrote a couplet. I thought hard for many days and couldn't leave the couplet. Today, all of them are the best among Lingzhou students. Why not listen to my couplet?"

The other party not only expressed his first couplet, but also four of them at once. Zeng Zilou's voice trembled a little and said, "You, you said..."

"My first couplet is, "Three Lights Sun, Moon and Stars." Lord Xiao Li looked at him, then looked back at the people behind him, and bowed: "I hope the Lingzhou heroes here will give you advice."

"Three Lights Sun, Moon and Stars." Zeng Zilou murmured, standing in place in a daze, his face gradually turned pale.

The men around him were all dumbfounded and shocked.

While they were still thinking hard, the young envoys from Chu had already issued the second couplet, and one pair was four...

Although the palindrome is not an absolute success, it is still a bit incredible to match four out of this short time.

Their eyes looked at Zeng Zilou. Could this Zeng man be an undercover agent sent by Chu?

Three Lights Sun, Moon and Stars. The first couplet of Lord Li Xiao seems simple, but when you think about it carefully, it makes people feel cold on their backs.

The numbers in the couplet must be matched with numbers. If the upper couplet uses the word "three", the lower couplet should not be repeated. There are only three characters under "three lights", so no matter which number is used to match, the number of words followed below is either more than three or less than three. In other words, the number of words in this couplet cannot match at all!

The Lingzhou emperor racked his brains and the dissatisfaction in the hearts of local officials in Lingzhou, including Governor Dong, had reached its peak.

Isn't it good to eat quietly? Zeng Zilou insisted on jumping out to make things difficult for these Chu envoys. Now, it's better, and he's been rebelled against the generals. This time, the Lingzhou officials and students were embarrassed!

The person next to Xu Qingyang looked at him and asked, "Qingyang, how are you doing? Have you figured it out?"

Xu Qingyang shook his head and said helplessly: "This is really weird, I can't explain it."

The man looked at Zhang Yansheng again and asked, "Yansheng, where is your side?"

"Three Lights Sun, Moon and Star..." Zhang Yansheng rubbed his eyebrows and said with some anger: "The word count is impossible at all. How can this make people right? The person who came up with this pair is sick!"

The first couplet has spread all the students. Everyone thought hard and racked their brains. The atmosphere in the hall was quiet and weird. Seeing this, the servants who came in to serve the food suddenly stumbled in their hearts and their movements immediately became cautious.

"No, no..." Someone shook his head and said, "This pair is impossible to match!"

"Not necessarily." Another man looked forward with his eyes and said depressedly: "Where is Tang Jieyuan, where has he been? He may have a way!"

Someone shook his head and said, "Tang Jieyuan is Jieyuan, not a god. This couplet will not match even if the gods come!"

Having said that, everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at the empty space in front of them, and even Xu Qingyang, who was good at couplets, could not be wrong with it. At the Lu Ming Banquet today, if someone could express this couplet, it would be Tang Jieyuan.

Although many people still don’t like him, they cannot deny this fact.

One person raised his head and said anxiously: "Where did Tang Jieyuan go?"

Countless gazes looked forward, their faces showing a burning look.

In the kitchen, Tang Ning looked down at Fang Xiaopang and asked, "Are you full?"

Fang Xiaopang threw another piece of venison into his mouth, wiped his mouth, and said, "Not yet."

"Go back and eat." Tang Ning shook her head and led her to the outside of the kitchen. Although he didn't want to go back to the place where few people liked him, today was Lu Mingyan. I was embarrassed to hide in the kitchen with Fang Xiaopang to eat.

The food has been served for a while, and they probably are having fun now. Tang Ning and Fang Xiaopang walked to the side door and prepared to sneak in while the chaos.

When he walked in through the side door, he found something was wrong.

The originally noisy hall calmed down after they walked in.

Then, Tang Ning found that everyone's eyes were looking at each other.

What does it feel like to be looked at by more than 200 people at the same time?

Fang Xiaopang was so scared that his body shook, and an apple, two pears, and a chicken leg wrapped in paper from his sleeve.

She grabbed Tang Ning's sleeve tightly, her face turned pale.

Tang Ning hesitated at this moment, not knowing whether to walk in or exit.

After hesitating for a moment, he led Fang Xiaopang in and sat back to his seat.

It’s not stolen or robbed, and it’s not that you go out to do something shameful, and there’s nothing to hide from.

When the Lord Li looked over, he was slightly stunned and whispered: "It turned out to be him..."

When Xu Qingyang saw Tang Ning, his eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked, "Is Brother Tang good at couplets?"

"Couplet?" Tang Ning was stunned and said casually: "I understand a little..."

"Brother Tang, listen to this couplet." Xu Qingyang looked at him and said, "Three lights, sun, moon and stars, how should this couplet be correct?"

"Three lights, sun, moon and stars?" Tang Ning looked at him in surprise and said, "A gust of wind, thunderstorm, two dynasties, four dynasties, two dynasties, two dynasties, two dynasties, two dynasties, two dynasties, two dynasties, two dynasties, are they enough?"

Pick.

Xu Qingyang stood there and chopsticks fell all over the floor beside several tables around him.

Tang Ning was a little surprised. This couplet was taught by Su Shi, an envoy of the Liao Kingdom. It was very famous. Xu Qingyang wouldn't have no idea, right?

After thinking for a moment, the curiosity in my heart was unraveled.

The Liao Kingdom in this world is not the Liao Kingdom in another world. The Liao Kingdom in this world has not had time to become stronger and sent envoys to make things difficult for Su Shi, but he was destroyed...
