Lin Han did not reject anyone and treated them with courtesy. Soon, the entire Jiangnan knew that this Young Master Xiao Yao was not only handsome and extraordinary, but also humble and polite. He was simply the model of a refined scholar.
Among the people who came to visit, they found out that Lin Han did not have a wife or concubine. This made the people who were already married and had children at the age of 16 or 17 in ancient times instantly become restless. It attracted countless matchmakers to come and propose marriage. There were countless young ladies who liked Lin Han's poems and were looking forward to marrying Lin Han.
At this time, Lin Han did not care about these things. He did these things to make it easier for him to get close to Tang Bohu and defeat him to complete the mission. Then, he would think of a way to sneak into Huafu and wait for the arrival of the Life Stealing Scholar.
Moreover, since he had come to Tang Bohu lighting the autumn incense, he naturally had to participate in the plot. Otherwise, what was the point?
However, although Lin Han said that he could sneak into the palace as a servant like Tang Bohu, that would be too degrading. Lin Han was not like Tang Bohu, who did not care about his reputation because he was chasing after Qiuxiang.
From Lin Han's point of view, although Gong Li's role as Qiu Xiang was good, it was not his cup of tea. Lin Han was not interested.
On the other hand, after Lin Han's plagiarized poetry collection caused a sensation, it was naturally known by the four scholars of Jiangnan. Among the four scholars, Tang Bohu, who was proficient in poetry and painting, even admired Young Master Xiao Yao for writing so many styles.
In the blink of an eye, two days had passed. At this time, Tang Bohu was grilling chicken wings in the Tang Mansion just like the beginning of the plot. Suddenly, a servant came to report that someone had come to visit.
Tang Bohu waved his hand and said impatiently,"
"Can't you see that I'm grilling chicken wings? Just say that I'm busy!”
However, the servant did not leave. Instead, he reminded,"
"Young Master, this person claims to be Young Master Xiao Yao, Lin Han. I saw that Young Master has been reading his poetry recently, so I came to ask for instructions.”
When Tang Bohu, who was grilling chicken wings, heard that it was Young Master Xiao Yao, he quickly scolded,"Why didn't you say so earlier?”
Although Tang Bohu was extremely proud of ordinary people, he was extremely impressed by Lin Han's poetry. Among the four great scholars, Tang Bohu was the only one who wrote poetry well. It could be said that if Tang Bohu's first love was painting, then his second love was poetry.
When the servants heard this, they hurriedly went to welcome Lin Han in.
When Lin Han entered the Tang Mansion, Tang Bohu did not care about the chicken wings he was roasting and hurriedly walked up to him.
"Brother Lin, I'm sorry for not welcoming you!”
"Where, where! I came uninvited and was afraid to disturb Brother Tang. I'm really sorry!”
After the two of them exchanged pleasantries, Tang Bohu led the way and brought Lin Han to the stone table in the courtyard. At this time, the servants had already prepared tea and pastries.
As soon as he sat down, Tang Bohu went straight to the point and asked,
"May I know why Brother Lin is here today? As long as I can do it, I will do my best to help Brother Lin. I only hope that I can discuss poetry with Brother Lin in a while. After all, Brother Lin is a great talent, and I really admire you!”
After hearing this, Lin Han said humbly,""Brother Tang, you flatter me. Speaking of which, Brother Tang's poetry and painting skills make me envious!”
After the two of them complimented each other, Lin Han also opened his mouth and said,"
"To tell you the truth, I believe that Brother Tang should have heard the news that the successor of Little Li Flying Dagger has returned to the martial world recently. I am the successor of Little Li Flying Dagger. My master gave me an order before he died, saying that I must take back my position on the Weapon Rankings.
After hearing Lin Han's words, Tang Bohu's expression turned serious as he said to Lin Han,"
"To be honest, Brother Lin, I don't care how you found out that I'm the successor of the Tang Clan's Overlord Spear, but I swore in front of my father's memorial tablet that I wouldn't reveal any martial arts unless it was a critical moment.”
"Moreover, we are having a martial arts competition. If we can't stop for a moment, the consequences will be death or disability. So, this Tang really can't agree to this request!
Hearing this, Lin Han thought to himself,"
"I was waiting for you to say that."
Then, Lin Han said to Tang Bohu,
"Since that's the case, how about this? You and I don't need to use inner energy and just rely on our moves. You and I should know that without inner energy, martial arts are not dangerous to us. As for the crisis, it's easier to solve it.”
Besides, if Brother Tang is still worried, why don't you replace your Overlord Spear with a wooden stick and wrap it with a piece of cloth and dip it in ink? I'll take a pair of chopsticks and dip it in ink. The one whose vital part is stained with ink first will lose.”
"I hope that Brother Tang can fulfill my request so that I can face my deceased teacher!!”
"This... this is not the case. Alright then, seeing how Brother Lin has made such a request, if I don't agree, then I won't be a gentleman anymore. Moreover, I also feel that Brother Lin's suggestion is quite interesting. I also want to try such a fresh method of competition, haha!”
Tang Bohu couldn't help but laugh. One should know that Tang Bohu was easily interested in some strange things. After hearing that Lin Han's wooden stick was stained with ink, he couldn't help but want to give it a try.
