Prince Ning Arrives
"You?"
The staff officer glanced at Zhan Ji. Seeing that he was young and dressed normally, he couldn't help but look down on him.
"May I know your official position and which list of scholars?”The advisor general waved his fan and said slowly.
Zhan Ji laughed and said casually,""This one has no official position or title.”
Chuanchang's expression changed slightly, revealing a look of contempt.
Zhan Ji smiled and said," There is no distinction between noble and humble in a literary competition. You are known as the top scholar of the seven provinces. Don't you have such a big heart?"
The advisor general narrowed his eyes and sized up Zhan Ji. He suddenly laughed and said,"
"What you said makes sense. I'm all ears.”
The faces of Grand Preceptor Hua and the others turned ugly as they looked at Zhan Ji as if he was a life-saving straw. The first half of the couplet seemed very simple, but in fact, it contained numbers and mocked Grand Preceptor Hua for living up to his name and eating vegetarian food.
If Zhan Ji wanted to match it neatly, not only did he have to hide the numbers, but he also had to mock back.
At the same time, Tang Bohu stood with his hands behind his back, watching how Zhan Ji was going to match the next couplet.
"Although his talent in poetry is high, he needs to be quick-witted when it comes to couplets. If he can't match it, it's not like I can't help him for Sister Qiuxiang's sake.”
Tang Bohu's eyes flickered as he thought to himself.
The current Ning Prince was pressing on step by step. Once no one accepted his challenge, he was afraid that he would take this opportunity to start a massacre.
Zhan Ji pondered for a moment and immediately said in a clear voice,"Nine out of ten families are poor, and they have gathered eight taels of silver, seven coins, six cents, and five cents.”
Then, he smiled and stared at the staff officer general." What do you think of the second half of the couplet?”
"It's so neat." The advisor general said in surprise.
Hearing this, Grand Preceptor Hua could not help but heave a sigh of relief. He looked at Zhan Ji with tears of gratitude." Zhan Ji, you came at the right time.”
The advisor general's somewhat scattered eyes gathered again. He stared at Zhan Ji cautiously and bowed to Zhan Ji solemnly."I was rude earlier. May I ask your name?”
The advisor general did not believe that the person who could match his couplet was someone unknown in the world.
"I have already said that I have only studied for two years and am just a commoner.”Zhan Ji said indifferently.
As a result, the advisor general became even more cautious. He frowned and thought for a moment before saying,"In books, dragons don't roar and tigers don't roar. Little Bai Ding is laughable.”
"On the chessboard, the chariot has no wheels and the horse has no reins.”
"Good! Dexterity!"
Grand Preceptor Hua slapped the table and exclaimed in admiration. It was truly satisfying to be able to kill Prince Ning.
Looking at Ning Wang at the side, his face was gloomy as if he was about to fly into a rage. On the other hand, Tang Bohu nodded slightly, looking at Zhan Ji even more highly.
The staff officer took a deep breath and said loudly,"
" Orioles, swallows, swallows, verdant, red, everywhere is harmonious and harmonious.”
Zhan Ji smiled disdainfully and retorted,""Rain, wind, flowers, leaves, year after year.”
The people in the palace couldn't help but cheer. Prince Ning suddenly reached out and grabbed the clothes of the staff officer general, saying in a rough voice,""Hurry up! Another couplet, kill this kid!”
A drop of cold sweat fell from the advisor general's forehead. He pondered for a moment and suddenly raised his head." Ten thoughts, thinking of the monarch, the country, and the country.”
"Eight eyes, admire the flowers, admire the moon, and admire the autumn fragrance.”Zhan Ji said slowly and looked at Qiuxiang.
The burning emotions in his eyes made Qiuxiang slightly hot and could not help but lower her head to avoid his gaze.
"I'm a high-class awe-inspiring person, showing off my courage.”The advisor general gritted his teeth.
"You're a despicable person, revealing half of your pride.”Zhan Ji shook his head and matched the next couplet.
The advisor general's back was already drenched in cold sweat. If this continued, his reputation would be ruined here.
Moreover, he was the top scholar of the seven provinces after all. If word got out that he couldn't even defeat a commoner, he would definitely become a laughing stock. What was even more life-threatening was that if he couldn't get rid of the kid today, with Ning Wang's vengeful temper, he would probably be the one who was screwed when he returned.
"Plant trees on your grave." The advisor general said in a foul voice.
"Your room's bathtub is equipped with miscellaneous fish."
"The Fish Fat Fruit has ripened into my stomach." The advisor general forced himself to speak in a trembling voice.
"Your mother will personally cook."
Before Zhan Ji could finish his sentence, the staff officer felt dizzy. He staggered two steps and fell to the ground, spitting out blood.
"I didn't expect you to be so serious. You were so angry that you spat out blood.”
Zhan Ji clicked his tongue in wonder and said repeatedly,"I'm impressed, I'm impressed."”
