Chapter 127 Talent

The Xuanyue of today is not the Xuanyue of the northwest continent. At that time, she had to be careful wherever she went with hundreds of thousands of taels of gold in her hand, for fear of exposing her money and causing death. This is something she has experienced personally.

But when I arrived in the southwest continent, I suddenly changed from a rich person to a poor person, especially when I took the official road and passed the checkpoint where I had to pay three to five gold yuan as a customs clearance fee.

Passed nearly twenty levels in a row with super speed.

I originally had more than a hundred gold dollars, but it immediately became double digits, and I didn't even have half a hundred. This time I went to the city to buy supplies and food, and on the other hand I wanted to find a way to get some money, even if it was just doing odd jobs.

OK.

This official road is very fast and convenient, and you don’t have to worry about taking the wrong road. If you take a small road, although there is no checkpoint fee and the distance is closer, it is very easy to get lost, and the trails in the mountains and forests are not good, and it is easy to get into accidents.

, so Xuan Yue never thought about taking the small road.

Standing in front of Wangyue Tower for a long time, no one of the scholars or talented people on the left or right matched the upper and lower couplets, and some people who thought they were incapable of matching gradually dispersed.

Xuan Yue strode into Wangyue Tower, leaving a dashing silhouette for everyone outside.

"Another one has entered. Hehe, do you think he can match up?" Seeing another person entering Wangyue Tower, a talented man suddenly said with some gloating. Obviously, he had no confidence in Xuan Yue.

"Hmph, I'm not exaggerating. This pairing requires at least someone with a bachelor's degree to be able to match him. Just him? With his dusty and disheveled appearance, it's strange that he can match him!" one person said calmly.

"Yes, yes, he looks like a person who can match this couplet. This couplet must be matched by a bachelor." Another person agreed.

…

"Master, please." When Xuan Yue entered the building, a girl wearing a green maid's costume immediately pushed the already polished inkstone in front of Xuan Yue.

The decoration inside the building is very simple and elegant. Because it was covered with paint on the outside, Xuan Yue did not see what kind of wood it was. However, when she entered the building, Xuan Yue was shocked to find that this building was entirely made of rosewood.

Covered.

This classical building is dotted with all kinds of crabapples and pear blossoms, as well as all kinds of green and red gorgeous flowers. In addition, what makes Xuan Yue most incredible is that in this attic, there are several birds with their heads held high.

Red-crowned white crane.

And between the buildings, there is a rockery that is more than three feet high. Different from the ordinary rockery, this rockery is like a waterfall, as a whole, and the slowly flowing water falls from the height, bringing the

The hazy white shisha smoke adds a unique charm to this antique building.

"Young Master? Young Master?!" Seeing Xuan Yue staring blankly at the architectural scenery in the building, the maid in green called out twice.

"Oh! Sorry, the scenery here is so beautiful. It's so beautiful. I didn't expect that there is such elegance in this noisy city, especially the Luoxia Waterfall. It's really hard to get back to your senses at the first sight."

Looking at the various buildings in the building, Xuan Yue sighed.

If other Xuan Yue in the building were just surprised, then the waterfall boulder surprised Xuan Yue. Xuan Yue looked around a few times. There was no other foreign object on the boulder, which was more than three feet and nearly eleven meters long.

The slowly rising clear water seemed to be set off by some kind of power, and it was endless.

If there is sunlight passing through here, the clear water falling like a waterfall will definitely form a brilliant rainbow.

"Thank you for the compliment, Master. Then it's time for Master to answer the second line." The maid in green clothes was a little impatient with Xuan Yue's looking around, so she returned the courtesy slightly and said directly.

"That's natural." Xuan Yue nodded slightly, then took the brush in her hand and wrote quickly.

The whole process only lasted less than ten seconds. Xuan Yue's calligraphy was just like his posture on the battlefield, with extremely heavy brushstrokes. The crisscrossing strokes were like the slashing swords on the battlefield. They were just

At a glance, it feels like being enveloped by thousands of troops.

The maid in green was shocked by Xuan Yue's rapid writing gesture. You must know that every one of the scholars who came in the past few days wrote slowly and carefully, eager to show off their peak calligraphy and painting skills in the hope of getting good ratings.

, even if the answer is wrong, it still has a good evaluation.

The maid did not understand the artistic conception in the words. After all, for a maid who was busy serving tea and water every day, reading and literacy was always too luxurious and far away.

Although literature is popular in the Han Dynasty, it does not mean that the scholars and Confucian scholars are willing to accept women to study literature. In their impression, the way of literature is the way of saints and cannot be contaminated by villains and women.

It is also because of this kind of thinking that few women can learn literary things. Of course, this is only a small number, and this small number only includes the common people. For nobles, wealthy businessmen, and children of the royal family, this small number of words is

Doesn't exist.

The maid in green took the second couplet in her hand respectfully to the second-floor attic and made no other response.

Downstairs, Shangxing was bored and picked up a red fruit on the table. He didn't hesitate to wipe it on his chest and started eating. When Shangxing took his first bite, the red fruit was in his mouth.

A large amount of crimson liquid flowed out. The sweet fragrance and the sweetness of the mouthful made Xuan Yue involuntarily and subconsciously lick the juice flowing out of the corner of her mouth.

Immediately, Xuan Yue swallowed all the red fruits in her hands in three mouthfuls, and did not forget to smash her mouth after eating.

"This thing is so delicious. After living in this world for so many years, this is the first time I have eaten such a delicious fruit. When it enters the mouth, it is full of sweetness and sweetness, and when it flows down the throat, it has a slight cold soothing effect.

, when it enters the stomach, it is so hot that it really makes people nostalgic. Such fruit is so delicious!" Xuan Yue thought secretly while touching her still burning stomach.

Involuntarily, Xuan Yue put her hand on the fruit plate on the table again, and there were three same fruits on it.

The fruit plate is round, and the fruits are stacked on top like a pyramid, with three on the bottom and one on top. This is the traditional stacking method.

Looking at the three unknown red fruits, Xuan Yue took one again. Just as she was about to put it in her mouth to eat, she suddenly remembered Xue'er who was waiting for her outside, so she quietly put the fruit into her arms.

But looking at the two fruits still placed on the table, Xuan Yue was a little reluctant.

Looking around the attic, there seemed to be no one around, so Xuan Yue quickly put the two fruits into her left and right sleeves.

Xuan Yue was wearing a Confucian scholar's gown. The clothes of the Han Dynasty, especially those of scribes, had relatively long and wide sleeves. There would be no difference even if you put not just one fruit, but three of them.

But Xuan Yue didn't know that from a dark window in the attic, two pairs of eyes were staring blankly at Xuan Yue's movements, and the look in their eyes was completely puzzled and unbelievable.

"Miss, this guy is so rude. He just ate the flame fruit, but he actually kept it for himself. Forget it, just take it for a meaning. He actually took away all the rest. This

Wait for the rude person to really answer you

The first couplet?" The maid in green looked at Xuan Yue with jealous eyes. You must know that even he has never eaten the flame fruit. Not only is it delicious, it can also refresh the body and mind. Although the effect is very weak, it is still

It's better than nothing.

Originally, the young lady took out the four flame fruits from the mansion after seeing that there were no well-known fruits in Wangyue Tower. Although the maid also knew that these fruits were meant for people to eat when they were taken out, she saw that Xuan Yue was eating and taking them.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but feel jealousy rising in my heart.

Standing next to the maid is a woman wearing a veil. She is the maid's daughter. She is also one of the little princesses of the Liu family of the Han Dynasty, the ninth princess Liu Bi.

Looking at the second line of writing in his hand and looking at the handsome strange man sitting quietly in the lower hall, Liu Bi couldn't help but frown.

Completely different from the maid in green, she has been carefully taught by literary giants since she was a child. He can see the artistic conception in the handwriting in the second line. Just looking at the second line, he seems to see the golden horse and the sword flying.

Bloody war.

But looking at the young and shameless Xuan Yue, she felt a little hesitant.

If such words were written in the hands of a general who was over fifty years old, she might not care, but if they were written in the hands of this young boy, he would feel a little restless.

Liu Mi was gifted with extraordinary talent since he was a child, and his literary talent was even higher than that of many of his royal brothers and sisters. He knew thousands of words at the age of three, was able to speak poems at the age of five, was good at poetry at the age of seven, and was able to speak correctly at the age of ten.

Leading the way, and still living under the endless radiance, this couplet was accidentally obtained by the master. No one in the world knew about it. She thought hard for several days and couldn't find the reason. However, it was just a hangout for a few days.

, then a person like this came.

Is it true that as the master said, don't underestimate the bachelors in the world?

"Miss, this guy must have accidentally seen the similar upper and lower couplets somewhere, otherwise it would be impossible to answer such an answer. How about we beat him up with a stick as a warning to others." He was silent as he looked at the handwriting in his hand.

The maid in green clothes said solemnly.

Hearing the words of the maid in green, Liu Bi frowned, looked at the maid with a normal face, and said softly, "Xia Lian, no matter whether the answer is him or not, he still answered the second line, and the flame fruit was originally to entertain distinguished guests.

Used, and he answered the second line, taking those away is just what he deserved."

After looking at Xia Lian who seemed a little unwilling, Liu Bi's tone of voice suddenly became a little low;

"Also, you are just a maid. No matter where you stand, you are far lower than a scholar. If you give up this time, if I hear such words again in the future, you can fend for yourself."

Xia Lian was originally a little unwilling to let the young lady let Xuan Yue go so easily, and was even ready to instigate him again, even asking the prime minister to teach him a lesson. But after listening to Liu Bi's words, her face suddenly turned pale and colorless, Liu Bi said

That's right, I am just a maid, no matter how I change, I will still be a maid, and although the person downstairs is vulgar in my eyes, he is the one who is qualified to enter the house.

"I know my mistake, please punish me." Xia Lian, who was pale, immediately knelt in front of Liu Bi and said urgently.

"Get up, didn't I say that I spared you this time? Don't let it happen again, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind." After glancing at the frightened Xia Lian, Liu Bi continued, "Go and take out the thousand yuan of gold.

Give him the money and ask him if he would like to stay here."

"Thank you, miss, thank you, miss! I'll do it right away." Xia Lian thanked her quickly, then quickly got up and walked downstairs.
