Chapter 352: Even
The light rain on Tianjie is as moist as crisp, and the grass looks far away but there is nothing near it.
The most important thing is the spring of the year, which is absolutely superior to the smoke and willows all over the imperial capital.
After reading this last sentence, many officials of the Chu State who reacted were heartbroken. Couldn't they carefully inspect and supervise and change the imperial capital to the imperial capital or the imperial capital? !
Isn't the rhythm right?
How could Uncle Anding be so careless!
What a pity, what a pity this good poem!
If it wasn't for the Great Hall competition, it's okay even if the rhyme doesn't match. Even if it doesn't match, it still doesn't prevent it from being a good poem, but it happens to be above the Great Hall.
There are strict metrical requirements for poetry.
If the meter doesn't match, it's not a quatrain.
No matter how good the poem is, if it violates the rules, it is a loss.
Only Zhao Daru held the poem in his hand and looked at Xu Qing thoughtfully.
More than 40 years ago, when he was still a young man, he followed a mission to Zhao State, and competed with Zhao Guo in the court hall of Chu State.
Still two wins out of three.
He lost completely in the first round. In the second round, the opponent deliberately changed the last sentence of a quatrain so that it did not rhyme.
At that time, he still remembered what the man said, a very contemptuous sentence: "Let you win a game."
In that game, chess, scriptures, and poetry.
He won that round and became the only one in Chu State.
However, this statement was regarded by him as a shame in his life, and also by Chu State. Failure may not be considered a shame, but winning a round with the mercy of the opponent is a shame among shames!
It was also from that time that Chu State began to pay attention to education and opened county schools.
After Zhao Daru came back from Zhao State, he began to devote himself to writing, hoping that one day he could surpass Zhao State in terms of literary skills.
Many Chu people can't remember this incident, but he always remembers it in his heart.
...
Zhao Daru looked at Xu Qing who was seated, and sure enough, he found that Xu Qing was still calm and composed, and even looked at Kuang Zhou with a slight smile on his face.
At this moment, he understood that the shame of forty years ago was returned to Zhao Guo by Xu Qing today!
Xu Qing looked at Kuang Zhou with a smile on his face, and said softly, "It's even."
Kuang Zhou's eyes widened when he looked at Xu Qing, and he stared at Xu Qing firmly.
Evened out……
Is it the score between him Kuangzhou and the Anding county uncle?
Or between Zhao State and Chu State?
Forty years ago, Mr. Own gave Chu State a game in this way.
He still remembers what the teacher said to himself:
He can win one game because I only want him to win one game.
Strength is always the capital of pride.
But forty years later, the Anding County Boss of Chu State evened him out...
He really did it on purpose!
Facing Zhao Guokuangzhou's glaring gaze, Xu Qing always had a smile on his face.
I just like the way you can't understand me and can't kill me.
Oh, by the way, you have to pay back when you come out to hang out.
Finally, Zhao Guokuangzhou spat a mouthful of blood on the white paper in front of him and fell down on the table.
They were still appreciating the poems of the two just now, and many officials who wrote the poems got up in shock when they saw this scene.
What happened?
Didn't Kuang Zhou win?
Why did it fall down instead?
Only Long Binger, who had been watching Xu Qing all the time, seemed to hear Xu Qing say something softly, saying: Even...
Then Kuang Zhou glared at Xu Qing, finally spat out a mouthful of blood and fell down.
Xu Qing also didn't expect Kuang Zhou to spit out a mouthful of blood in excitement, why is this person so angry?
Can't take it anymore?
Don't pretend to be smart and ask for a poem when you are so angry.
In the end, he was so angry that he could spit out a mouthful of old blood.
Do you want to touch porcelain?
So many people are watching!
He can't touch himself!
Many envoys from Zhao Guo came up one after another, and the Zhao Guozheng envoy said anxiously: "Quickly pass on the imperial physician!"
The envoy of Zhao Guozheng did not suspect that Kuang Zhou was plotted by Chu State, nor did he ask the Emperor of Chu State for an explanation.
Because when Kuang Zhou came, his mental state was not very good.
This son was too proud before, but now he was hit so hard suddenly, he was a bit devastated.
Rigid is easy to break!
But didn't he win just now?
Why is this still the case?
Too excited to finally win a game?
In the end, the imperial physician's diagnosis was that he was out of breath and attacked the heart, which caused mental trauma.
This is something that many people didn't expect, anxious?
Angry after winning?
However, it doesn't matter why you are so anxious.
After such a thing happened, the competition must be incomparable.
No one expected that what they thought was the easiest and most time-saving poem would turn out to be the most difficult one.
After Baiguan left the stage
The Emperor Chu called Xu Qing to the Imperial Study Room alone.
The Emperor of Chu looked at Xu Qing and said, "Just now, I saw your lips move, what did you say to Kuang Zhou that made him so outraged that he vomited blood and fainted?"
Xu Qing said truthfully: "I just said something to him, and it's evened."
The Emperor of Chu was slightly startled when he heard this, and then seemed to think of something, and said with a hearty smile: "Hahaha, okay, it's even! After more than forty years, it's finally even in today's poetry competition Alright! Good!"
Afterwards, Emperor Chu looked at Xu Qing and asked, "In the next match, if you use all your strength, are you sure you will win?"
Xu Qing thought for a while and said, "I'd better hold back a little bit."
The Emperor Chu asked puzzledly, "Why?"
Xu Qing said: "With all my strength, I am really afraid that I will directly piss him off to death."
Emperor Chu: "..."
How do you say that he is fat and he is still panting?
"By the way, Your Majesty." Xu Qing suddenly stopped Chu Huang.
Emperor Chu looked at Xu Qing: "What else is there?"
Xu Qing said: "That's the one thousand taels..."
Chu Huang: "Let's talk about it after you win the last game, one thousand taels and Miss Qiao, you may not know which one you will get."
Xu Qing said to himself: "It must be one thousand taels, it's a certainty."
...
Xu Qing lost this game, King Xian and Emperor Chu were very happy.
Boxes of silver were moved to Curry.
On the city wall, behind a man in black, several men in black look up at those who want to jump but dare not. Shouted: "Brothers in the city, please don't be overthinking it. Gambling is harmful! Ten bets and nine lies! Stay away from the gambling house! There will be no pie in the sky! Eat a pit, gain a wisdom, and a better life is waiting for you in the future." you."
The man in the city said: "Daddy lost everything because of this time! What's the point of living!"
The man in Xuanyi continued: "You are not afraid of death, are you still afraid of living?!"
As soon as these words came out, the man in the city was stunned. That's right, I am not afraid of death, so am I afraid of living?
But the man said again: "Damn, daddy has no money on him now, if he doesn't die, why don't he become a beggar?"
The man in Xuanyi said: "The National Chamber of Commerce has opened several new workshops. There is an urgent need for workers. The salary is good, and the more you work, the more you get. Who said you have to be beggars?"
The man was stunned: "Really?"
Obviously, if there is a way to survive, he dare not jump.
The man in Xuanyi said: "Of course it is true! But there is a rule that must be obeyed, and those who violate it will be immediately expelled from the foreign business school."
The man asked, "What rules?"
The man in black said: "Gambling is strictly prohibited!"
