Su Yu, the head of the Confucian Academy, has also heard of it. Although the name is "Academy", it is actually one of the best sects in Wuzhou Continent. Unlike other sects, they focus on pursuing the arts, and everyone in them has extremely high humanistic accomplishments. , it is also because the literary way is strong and the state of mind is transparent, which reacts on the martial arts, making one's own martial arts path easier.
Therefore, not only are everyone in the Confucian Academy masters, but for them, fighting couplets is as simple as eating. It seems that one person can fight against everyone, but in fact it is almost conducive to an invincible position.
Even people from the Confucian Academy were invited. This Canglang Prince was really generous.
It's a pity that so many people have been lost in the martial arts copybook and won't think about it at all. It has to be said that the Canglang Prince's methods are very high.
Yang Zhiyun had no way to refuse now and could only say: "Since Prince Cang Lang insists on this, then Zhiyun should accompany him."
"Hahaha, good!" Prince Canglang laughed. He felt that he was in an invincible position, and his pride was beyond words. He said to a young man next to him: "Brother Ning, it's up to you..."
As he spoke, the young man took a few steps forward and walked to the stage. He was wearing ink-colored clothes, with his black hair in a neat bun on his head, set in an exquisite white jade crown, with a long body. Yu Li, with pretty and straight features, and this frail and fair appearance perfectly matched Su Yu's image of a scholar.
However, judging from his walking posture, his manners are measured and his steps are light on the ground. He is definitely not as simple as a frail scholar.
"Ning Changge, a young student, has met the princess." Ning Changge gave a scholarly salute to the princess.
"Brother Ning, you're welcome. You are a disciple of the Confucian Academy. It is Zhiyun's honor to attend my coming-of-age ceremony." Yang Zhiyun returned the greeting.
Ning Changge smiled and said directly: "I wonder who the princess will give the question first?"
Yang Zhiyun pondered for a moment, knowing that there was no question that could stump Bai Yishi, so she said, "Brother Ning is only one person, so naturally Brother Bai should come up with the question."
Ning Changge nodded and did not refuse.
"Since today is the coming-of-age ceremony for the county princess, then I will show off my shame and make a birthday couplet -" After walking slowly for two steps, you said leisurely:
"My first couplet is - the scenery is pleasant and the deer gate is highly valued."
As the couplet fell, all the voices in the inner hall disappeared, and everyone's brows couldn't help but frown.
This couplet is not only a couplet celebrating birthdays, but also a couplet of joy. It was improvised and I realized that Ning Changge is indeed a member of the Confucian Academy of Sciences. He has a quick mind that is extraordinary for ordinary people.
This couplet is extremely difficult to match, and the confrontation is secondary. The most important thing is that it must fit the situation, at least it must be a birthday couplet.
At this time, many people suddenly woke up and realized how ridiculous it was to have a couplet with people from the Confucian Academy of Sciences.
Yang Zhiyun frowned deeply, paced slightly, thinking hard, but still found nothing, her eyes were anxious. If she lost, she would have to accept the portrait of the Canglang Prince. The charm of this was self-evident.
Su Yu glanced around and saw everyone in the hall frowning in thought.
"This couplet... is so difficult!"
"What a good connection, really a good connection!"
"The people at the Confucian Academy of Sciences are indeed extraordinary. They speak for themselves with absolute certainty."
"As expected of Prince Canglang, he has so many talents under his command..."
…
Less than half an hour passed, but no one could match him. Many people had given up thinking and began to flatter him.
Yang Zhiyun shook her head, exhaled slowly, and looked at a corner of the inner hall unconsciously, but she could not help but feel a little disappointed when she saw him looking around and not paying attention at all.
"Princess, have you come up with the second line?" Ning Changge had been standing there. Seeing that many people had given up, Ning Changge asked.
Yang Zhiyun bit her lip, shook her head slowly, and said unwillingly: "Brother Ning is a great talent, but this little girl has little talent and little knowledge. She still can't think of the second line..."
"In that case, the agreement between you and Brother Murong..."
"Wait!"
Before Ning Changge finished speaking, he was interrupted by a loud shout. Bai Xiaolong's face was red and he ran out excitedly. He also held a note in his hand and said excitedly: "My king Come out!"
Damn it! Pig teammates...
Su Yu slapped his forehead suddenly, unable to complain.
His original intention was to write the second line of the couplet to Bai Xiaolong and ask Bai Xiaolong to come forward to face the couplet. Who knew that this daredevil was so excited that he rushed forward without saying a word and betrayed me with his mouth? It was really a lie...
Bai Xiaolong's actions instantly attracted everyone's attention, and everyone was busy waiting for Bai Xiaolong's second line.
"Your first couplet is about the beautiful scenery. Lumen has great respect for you. My king is very interested in the case of Phoenix Entertainment." Bai Xiaolong stole the show, shaking his head and looking very coquettish.
"Wonderful! Wonderful!"
"Absolutely, it's really an absolute!"
"A great talent, King Su is also a great talent..."
…
The ones who took the lead in exclaiming were all families from Dongzhou County. Most of them were on good terms with Dawang Mountain, and the Bai family and Nalan family took the lead. For the glory of Dongzhou County, they all screamed with red faces and thick necks, and were extremely energetic. , I wish I could praise this couplet to the sky.
Influenced by these people, many people also clapped and applauded, and the scene was grand.
Yang Zhiyun's beautiful eyes glanced at Su Yu, full of smiles. Yun Xueer also glanced at Su Yu in surprise. Few people could give her so many surprises in such a short period of time.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect that King Su is still a talented man. I admire him and let us two brothers propose a toast to you!" The fat and thin people also said with a smile.
After hearing the couplet, Ning Changge pondered for a moment, then nodded slowly and saluted Bai Xiaolong, "I wonder who your king is?"
"Dongzhou County, Dawang Mountain, known as King Su!" Bai Xiaolong said with great pride.
"It turns out it's King Su, and Ning admires him." Ning Changge said politely at first, and then waved his hand and said: "When it comes to the top of the mountain, Ning was inspired by it, and wrote a couplet again, and asked your king for advice. ”
Seeing Su Yu nodding, Bai Xiaolong immediately said: "Please tell me..."
Ning Changge smiled slightly, showing the free and easy spirit of a scholar, "My first couplet is - Fog locks the mountain top and the mountain locks the fog."
This is a couplet describing the misty scenery in the mountains, which is quite poetic.
This couplet seems simple, but in fact it is extremely difficult. It is a palindrome couplet. It is the same if you read this couplet upside down. The second couplet must also be a palindrome couplet.
"This couplet... is amazing! Difficult! Absolute!" As soon as the couplet came out, someone shook his head and said, without any idea in his mind.
"This Ning Changge is by no means an unknown person even in the Confucian Academy. He definitely comes with his mouth. It's really shocking."
"I don't know if King Su can be right..."
…
Many people jumped over Bai Xiaolong, and their eyes fell directly on Su Yu, who was drinking water slowly...
