Chapter 14 Pairs

The graceful woman twisted her slender waist as smooth as water, walked slowly to the front of the stage, bowed and said: "Hello, gentlemen, my name is Wanwan."

Before the oiran could continue speaking, a young man on the side interrupted Wanwan.

"Okay, stop talking. I know the rules. Let's come up with the questions. I can't wait any longer. Young lady, just go ahead and capture her."

This person's frivolous words made Wanwan frown a little, but Wanwan, who knew this person's identity, could only obey.

Chen Xiuping knew the identity of this person like a thunderbolt. The son of the Xue family, Xue Hua, regarded himself as a thorn in the flesh.

Two days ago, Chen Xiuping only found out the identity of Xue Hua's father. Xue Tianba, whose name sounded like a martial artist, was actually the eighth-rank magistrate of Jianghuai City. He could be said to have a single hand covering the sky in Jianghuai City.

And the arrogant Xue Hua in front of him got first place in the state examination last autumn, which made the Xue family very happy. Such a big Jiangning Prefecture got the first place. A few days ago, the provincial examination of the Ministry of Rites took the first place.

In the first three days, the Xue family had a big banquet for three days. One was to celebrate Xue Hua, and the other was to see Xue Hua off. This was the rule.

But because Jianghuai City is the most prosperous area in Jiangning Prefecture, the Gongyuan Academy was established here, so that Xue Hua did not have to travel and travel to take the exam.

Speaking of which, Chen Xiuping found it strange that the imperial examination system was changed to once every three years in the third year of Emperor Yingzong's reign in the Northern Song Dynasty, but in the New Song Dynasty it was still once a year.

"Okay, now that Mr. Xue has spoken, I will come up with a topic. I came to Wangjiang Tower these days and thought of a couplet, Wangjiang Tower, Wangjiang Liu, Wangjiang Liu on Wangjiang Tower.

, Jiang towers last for eternity, rivers flow for eternity, now I invite you gentlemen to perform."

As soon as this sentence came out, Chen Xiuping seemed to have an impression. When he was in high school, his Chinese teacher was a fan of pairs. It seemed that he was born by a talented girl from Guangdong. In the end, he still relied on the sentence. As long as she was satisfied with the right one, she would marry whoever it was.

Thinking that I heard it here, maybe that talented girl from Guangdong is the Wanwan in front of me.

Wanwan's match has been revealed, and the scholars standing opposite are a little embarrassed, while Xue Hua lowers his head in thought, and Su Yuer's eyebrows are wrinkled.

Time passed by, and the other scholars quietly left the stage, leaving only Xue Hua and Su Yuer. There were more people watching the fun, which was rare in the past two years.

In this scene, the scholar was stumped by a question asked by an oiran. It was a big deal.

After some time passed, Xue Hua spoke: "My wife, this match is a bit difficult. Fortunately, I am talented and intelligent. Listen carefully, Dafo Mountain, the big Buddha statue. Look at the big Buddha statue in Dafo Mountain. Foshan Ten Thousand Years, Buddha Statue

Ten thousand years.”

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone in the audience applauded, and Chen Xiuping also felt that it was right. The New Song Dynasty was similar to the Southern Song Dynasty. The royal family vigorously pursued Buddhist culture. This had a lot to do with the political background at that time. Pian An and

South of the Yangtze River, belief in Buddhism can appease the people.

Wanwan closed her eyes and tasted it. It was right and neat, but it was just neat and not interesting.

"Young Master Xue is indeed the best among men. He is right about his workmanship. But for Wanwan, this Wangjiang Tower has a special meaning. Mr. Xue is not perfect."

After hearing Wanwan's words, the expression on Xue Hua's face changed from the initial pride to a slight anger. Although Wanwan was an courtesan, in Xue Hua's heart she was just a famous brothel girl. This time she came here

Taking the top spot was also to promote his talent, but he was rejected by an courtesan. You can imagine Xue Hua's inner anger.
