Nie Yong was in a very good mood, and he couldn't help but think of Lu Zheng again, and even sighed in his heart.

Nie Yong has always claimed to be talented. When he was young, he was arrogant and thought that he was the best in the world. He was in his early twenties and was in high school. This honor made him extremely inflated.

However, he was frustrated and offended the powerful in the capital, followed by his wife's death and his own demotion to Yangzhou. In Yangzhou, he encountered walls everywhere and was suppressed everywhere. He was almost desperate for his three years of experience in Yangzhou Prefecture.

After experiencing this ups and downs, Nie Yong reflected on himself again and realized that his talents were really mediocre.

Especially after he has seen Lu Zheng's ability in recent times, he feels more and more that he is not on the same level as Lu Zheng.

Nie Yong's situation is difficult, can it be even more difficult than Lu Zheng's situation? Nie Yong has at least a seventh rank on his head and is in charge of a county for the emperor.

But what about Lu Zheng? He was only fifteen years old and was disliked by his mistress. He came to Yangzhou alone to live under someone else's roof. The Zhang family wanted to kill him countless times, including people like Zhang Chengdong and Zhang Chengbei who were head-level attacking him.

But the result was that he survived safely and was still very free and easy, while those who wanted to harm him did not end up well.

If Nie Yong had not seen such a thing with his own eyes, he would never have believed it.

This time, Lu Zheng's plan for Nie Yong was also very exciting. Nie Yong recommended Zhang Chengxi to gain great benefits. Now Nie Yong's status in Yangzhou can be said to have completely reversed.

The problem that had troubled Nie Yong for three years was helpless, and Nie Yong for three years was easily solved by Lu Zheng's hands. Nie Yong thought about it now and felt incredible.

Nie Yong's thoughts were wild, but the situation on the field changed dramatically at this time.

Song Jin laughed and said, "Okay, since Lord Zhang and Lord Nie are so generous, then I would be more respectful than obedient. Today is a festive banquet for the Zhang family. A good banquet cannot be without poetry. Then I will give a title to let the young people show their poetry skills. What do you think?"

After Song Jin said this, Ma Xuewang said, "Okay, what Lord Song said is exactly what I want. We all know that a talented man appeared in Xinhe County on the Dragon Boat Festival last year. His son's surname is Lu and his name is Zheng. His poem "Jiangjinjiu" has been widely circulated. Today we happen to have this opportunity, and we don't want to get the case, but we just want young people to be masters for a while, so that they know that there is heaven beyond the sky and there are people beyond the sky!"

Ma Xuewang laughed loudly when he said this, and Song Jin laughed at the same time. Only Zhang Chengxi was stunned. Obviously, he never dreamed that Song Jin and Ma Xuewang were even comparing to poetry.

It was the boy who tried it soon. The young people were all thinking about the current text. At this time, what advantages can the Zhang family and Guanshan Academy gain from poetry?

Moreover, since the last Dragon Boat Festival poetry meeting, Zhang Haoran and others have been busy studying the writings, and even the Zhang family’s banana poetry club has dispersed. The Zhang family and the students of Guanshan Academy feel that they can’t stand the word “poetry” when they mention the word “poetry”. At this time, Song Jin wants to compare poetry?

Zhang Chengxi said: "Mr. Song, Lord Ma, I'll try it out soon. At this moment, time is the focus, and poetry is the sidetrack after all!"

"Mr. Zhang's words are wrong! We scholars are the first priority in poetry, songs and essays. After all, the time is utilitarian learning. Besides, the way of learning needs to be relaxed and relaxed. Today happens to be a banquet. This is a good time for everyone to relax. How can we not have poetry?" Song Jin said.

Ma Xuewang said: "Mr. Song, Lord Zhang thinks he has taken advantage of us! Who doesn't know that Lu Zheng, a talented man in Xinhe County, is afraid that we will lose too ugly!"

Ma Xuewang said this and paused and continued, "Mr. Zhang, don't be too careful. Today we are here to support you. Winning and losing are not a big deal? Besides, it is good for young people to let them suffer some setbacks, especially before the end of the game. Maybe they can perform more smoothly in the exam!"

Song Jin and Ma Xuewang sang together. Zhang Chengxi was so miserable. He didn't let Lu Zheng come here at this occasion!

Ma Xuewang and Song Jin must have heard about Lu Zheng. They said this purpose deliberately today, with the purpose of digging a hole for Zhang Chengxi!

At this time, Nie Yong finally came to his senses. When he saw Zhang Chengxi looking embarrassed, he couldn't help but curse Zhang Chengxi in his heart, but he remained silent on his face and said:

"Mr. Song and Ma, you two don't know. Lu Zheng is indeed a bit anxious, but his writing skills are really too weak at that time. I have personally taken the exam for his writing skills. It's really unbearable!

Even if this student is a reference for the outcome, he will probably not be able to get a high school student. Therefore, today he will be here in the future. Please let the two adults understand this."

"Oh? Lord Nie's words are interesting! Lu Zheng is a well-known talent in Yangzhou, and he doesn't understand Shiwen? Even if this is from you, no one here can believe it!" Song Jin said.

Ma Xuewang laughed and said, "Mr. Nie, can it be that his talented man was poached by someone else and said this on purpose after changing the party?

As far as I know, Lu Zheng lives in the Lu family, and Lord Zhang is the uncle of this son. Today my uncle is invited to a talented man in Yangzhou, but he just lacks a nephew. Could it be that this nephew is not as literary as he is? Is this reason too far-fetched?"

Ma Xuewang and Song Jin were obviously prepared. Once they grabbed a point, they would not relax and bit them tightly. Zhang Chengxi did not expect this situation to happen, and the situation was completely at a disadvantage.

In today's occasion, his purpose was to show his ability, but now his ability has not been revealed. He is almost in vain. This is definitely something he can't stand.

Immediately, he stood up and said, "Okay, today I will compare it to a poem. Please ask Lord Song to give the title!"

Song Jin achieved his goal and no longer entangled Lu Zheng's topic. He immediately asked a question, which was simple, just one word "snow", and there was no limit on rhyme.

Generally speaking, when writing poetry, there is a saying that the title is limited to the rhyme. The stricter the rules, the more difficult it is to write poetry, and the fewer excellent works will be. However, the rules are too simple, and it is easy to write poetry. There are too many excellent works, but it is not easy to distinguish them from the higher.

Literatures are inferior to each other. Since everyone is competing, they naturally have to distinguish between the superiors and inferiors. Therefore, the first question that Song Jin gave was just to throw bricks and attract jade. Today, the Zhang family’s banquet will become a poetry meeting, and the battle will become particularly intense.

Not to mention today's comparison concerns the morale of the students in the three counties, just looking at the rich lottery prepared by the Zhang family for the winners, any talented student will definitely do their best.

The originally relaxed atmosphere at the banquet suddenly became tense. Zhang Chengxi had already drunk halfway, but now he had completely woken up.

Zhang Haoran and others were originally proud and looked relaxed, but now they have become serious. You should know that they are also aware of the young talents in Lin County.

Like Sima Yi and Duanmu Qiu, they are both top-notch talented men. Not only are they good at writing in time, but they also have high attainments in poetry. Zhang Haoran was not sure of winning them before.

In recent months, Zhang Haoran has learned from his mistakes and focused on the current writings, and has neglected to study poetry, and the situation seems to be even more serious...

...

In the side hall, the female relatives became nervous, and today there are more than the Zhang family members.

Many female relatives from Duanmu family and Sima family also came, most of them were girls, Zhang Baoyi, Zhang Xijun, Zhang Rouyun and others were responsible for the reception.

Among all the female relatives, one of them has the most special status, which is Duanmu Wanrong, a talented man from the Duanmu family. He is now a scholar-general in the southern Zhili Province. He once went out in a miscellaneous manner. He had seen Duanmu Wanrong and was very excited and wrote a poem for her. There is a sentence in the poem, "The only one in Yangzhou is Wanrong." This sentence made Duanmu Wanrong become the number one beauty in Yangzhou.

Duanmu Wanrong is praised not only for her beauty, but more importantly, her talent and knowledge are amazing. It is said that her talent and knowledge have no rivals among her peers, and even her brother Duanmu Qiu is willing to give up the disadvantage.

Therefore, when a woman with so many halos surrounded by her body sat in the side hall of the Zhang family, the other female relatives naturally became foils.

Duanmu Wanrong is wearing a light red armor, with a leather silver mouse jacket on her outside, and a simple silver hairpin on her head and a light red veil on her face. Her face cannot be seen clearly, but she can vaguely feel her delicate facial features.

Zhang Baoyi has always been by her side. She rarely speaks and is taciturn most of the time. However, the big girl named Caiyun around her often speaks amazing things.

"Swish! Miss, are you watching? These talents are very nervous. They are all making trouble for the yellow gold. They are using their hearts. I don't know if the poems they have made can be seen by Miss!" Cai Yun spoke again. The girl spoke very skillfully. She always controls her voice to a very low voice. At first glance, she seems to whisper to Duanmu Wanrong in private, but it was just that Zhang Baoyi and Zhang Rouyun and other people who were close to her could hear it again.

"Hey, I think they are all mediocre talents, but unfortunately the one named Lu didn't come today, it's a pity!" Cai Yun spoke in a very loud tone.

At this time, poetry writing on the stage had begun, and talented people appeared one after another. Because the topic was simple and there were no rhyme limits, there were actually many excellent works.

Among them, Zhang Haoran, the second one who appeared on stage, had a sentence "With snow but not poetry became a common man", which was a beautiful sentence, Duanmu Qiu, and "The white snow was a little bit late in spring", which was no less than Zhang Haoran.

Tian Zepeng of Guanshan Academy was also very agile and very active in his performance. He actually wrote two poems in a row, with good lines in the poem. Zhang Rouyun and Zhang Xijun applauded:
Chapter completed!
