After Xia Houyue toasted a few glasses of wine outside, she left Aunt Gu in the courtyard to accompany the drink and returned to the house.

"Yue Niang, are you okay?" Aunt Xia Houyue asked with concern after she sat down.

"Aunt, Yue'er is okay."

I am a little drunk, but I can't show it in front of others easily, lest I fall into the shoes of the Xiahou family.

"Although it's just a few glasses of water and wine, it's better for Yueniang to eat something and rest a little." Her aunt continued to express concern.

"Thank you for your love, aunt, and save Yue'er."

Aunt Xiahou looked at the stubbornness in Xiahou Yue's eyebrows and shook her head slightly. After her parents passed away, this child is no longer the innocent and carefree little girl she used to be. Now she has more and more ideas of her own.

"My little lady, I would like to thank all my relatives and friends for coming to my humble home today, please."

When everyone in the room saw Xia Houyue holding up the wine glass, they all said in return: "Please."

As soon as everyone put down their wine glasses, they saw the man surnamed Gu saying to Mr. Qin and the man surnamed Wang, "Mr. Qin, Brother Wang, time flies so fast. I don't think Yueniang is already twenty-nine years old, but...

I remember when we were in Guanghan, a few of us had a rest, had a drink, and talked about the past and the present. It was really uncomfortable!"

"Yes, I remember one time, the Xiahou Prefect, Brother Gu, and I went to Qin Gong's residence with prepared food and wine. Unexpectedly, Qin Gong was ill in bed at that time, so we had to enter Qin Gong's residence to make arrangements.

Only when we have a banquet can we have a smooth conversation." The man surnamed Wang also said with emotion.

"Yes, the Xiahou Governor asked me that time how the scholars of Yizhou compared with those of Xuzhou. Qin Gong discussed ancient and modern times and evaluated talents, but he gave the scholars of Shu a great reputation." The man surnamed Gu responded.

Yang Qing was eating food by himself, and heard the two ancient kings reminiscing about the past. Then he learned that Madam Xiahou's father had become a prefect, and that the relationship between the four of them was so good, but for some reason only these two were talking.

Mr. Qin only smiled and drank without responding.

How did he know that Mr. Qin actually looked down on Xiahou Yue's father to some extent back then, but he was forced to invite Xiahou to do so, and even in order to make Mr. Qin willing to serve as an official under his subordinates, he called them Zhongfu regardless of the fact that they were peers.

He, this made Mr. Qin agree to serve as a mentor in Guanghan County to offer wine. Speaking of which, the two of them were actually not similar in ambition, but now he is deceased, and after all, the Xiahou Prefect treated Mr. Qin very well, so he is now

I still miss him quite a bit. Mr. Qin has been looking after Xia Houyue overtly and covertly in recent years.

The two ancient kings were still drinking and reminiscing about the past, which made Xiahou Yue secretly blush. However, when Yang Qingyue heard what happened later, he felt that the two men did not miss the Xiahou Prefect, but they became more and more...

Later, Zhao Fangzheng and Aunt Xiahou also joined in the praise of Mr. Qin and added a few words of praise.

Although Mr. Qin is sitting in the most distinguished seat, do you need to do this? After all, Mrs. Xiahou is the protagonist today, okay?

Yang Qing shook his head, regardless of everyone else's thoughts, he just became curious about Mr. Qin's identity. After all, from the compliments of the two ancient kings, he learned that Mr. Qin was not an ordinary scribe, he could be called a scholar in Shu.

A celebrity, he even had a good relationship with Prime Minister Zhuge. Even excluding the two people's complimentary words, Mr. Qin's background is quite high. Who is this person?

Yang Qing asked himself that he had a certain understanding of the history of the Three Kingdoms, especially the life of Zhuge Liang, but he couldn't remember any of Zhuge Liang's friends named Qin. This feeling of not being able to guess the riddle in person made Yang Qing quite uncomfortable, and he became even more uncomfortable.

Wanting to know the identity of Mr. Qin, Yang Qing suppressed the suspicion in his heart and continued to listen to everyone's conversation with open ears.

At this time, the man surnamed Wang walked out of his seat and came to the hall and said loudly: "Everyone, today is the birthday of Yueniang, and Duke Qin, a famous scholar in the world, is here. Why don't we write a congratulatory poem to compare with it?

I would like to congratulate Yueniang on her birthday, and secondly, to help with her elegance, and thirdly, there are several young people such as my son here today, just in time for Duke Qin to take the exams for these juniors. I wonder what Duke Qin, Yueniang and all of you think?"

Xia Houyue said: "Today's banquet should have included singing and dancing to entertain, but because of the family's financial difficulties, we did not do this. It is really rude. Uncle Wang has made this suggestion, and Yue'er fully agrees, but I don't know the relationship between Uncle Qin and you all.

meaning?"

Mr. Qin took a sip of wine and said, "It's all right."

This statement spread among the guests, and everyone applauded, especially the humble neighbors who were looking forward to it. Composing poems to cheer up this kind of thing was something that only dignitaries and dignitaries would do when they were having a banquet. They were very excited to see it today.

.

Yang Qing ate the dishes in silence without saying a word. He felt very sad. He originally thought he could finish eating early and go home to have a good rest, but he didn't expect this. And he could tell that this guy named Wang was doing something wrong.

Most of this happened for the sake of his son, firstly to make him famous, and secondly to let his son reveal his talents in front of Xia Houyue.

After all, when the father and son surnamed Wang first arrived, his son looked at Mrs. Xiahou with very fiery eyes, but the eyes he looked at himself were full of anger and indignation. I think that Wang Langjun thought he could sit on the

In the hall, who knew that he had occupied a seat in the room, this man was about to have a fit at that time, but his father gave him a wink, and then he reluctantly went outside.

How could Yang Qing, a later generation, understand poetry? Once he got involved in this matter, he could only use the method of deflection. But once this method was used, people would complain about it. He made up his mind to speak out when the time came.

If you know how to compose poetry, you will be fine as a commoner.

"Since everyone agrees, I wonder which scholars are willing to participate?" The man named Wang asked immediately when he saw everyone agreed.

Although the Xiahou family was a family of officials, most of the friends Xiahou had after he was dismissed from office for a crime a few years ago. He died in depression, which caused the family's fortune to plummet. Therefore, Xiahou Yue later moved his family.

We arrived at Osmanthus Alley, where common people live. Most of the guests at this time were people who didn't know much about literature, so when faced with the man surnamed Wang's questions, very few responded.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Seeing his father in an awkward position, Wang Langjun quickly stood up and said: "Sir, I would like to pretend to be a human being." His father said happily: "Yes.

, my son has such good intentions."

The man surnamed Wang asked again: "Brother Gu, don't you want to have some fun?"

"Since it's the invitation from Brother Wang, that's all. I will play with these young people." The man surnamed Gu responded.

You old man, you are obviously just trying to flatter your son today, and you deliberately found me as a foil. Forget it, this boy Wang Tong has known Yueniang since childhood, and his talent and learning are decent. The two of them are a good match. After marrying Yueniang, it will be

Now that I have support, I will treat them as a beautiful couple and serve as a companion today, but I must make Wang Pu suffer a lot afterwards.

Following Wang Pu's invitations one by one, Aunt Xiahou and Zhao Fangzheng were also willing to join, and several guests in the courtyard also agreed. At this time, when he saw Yang Qing just eating and drinking at his seat, he smiled in his heart and walked over.

"This Yang Langjun, why have you been silent all this time? You can count yourself as one, come and have fun with everyone?" Wang Pu couldn't figure out Yang Qing's background, but decided to test him for the sake of his son's marriage.

.

"Your Majesty invites me, and I'm very grateful. I'm just a humble scholar. I really don't understand poetry, so I won't show my shame in front of the Fang family."

Before Wang Pu could reply, his son Wang Tong could not bear to see Yang Qing snatching his seat. At this time, he couldn't help but came closer and said with a half-smile: "Otherwise, I think Brother Yang speaks elegantly.

If he behaves well, he must be a talented person, why don't you come down and join us to learn from each other?"

Huh, I want to see what kind of skills you have, how can I make Yue'er treat me like a guest.

When Wang Pu saw his son speaking like this, he was quite dissatisfied.

Alas, Tong'er still doesn't have enough experience and can't calm down, so Nai Gong tried to test this guy named Yang, just to prevent this kid from participating, so as not to cause trouble. In case this guy is a talented person, look at you

What should I do? You must know that Yueniang has been very high-minded since she was a child. She would not just invite an ordinary person to sit as a guest. There must be something extraordinary about this child.

Yang Qing was also speechless. If you want to pursue a woman, just work hard yourself. Why do you need to step on others to get ahead, make a certain family anxious, and do such shameless things? Let's see how you end up!

Yang Qing stood up and smiled slightly: "Brother Wang has given you too much praise. I really don't understand poetry, so I won't disturb your elegance."

Wang Tong said hurriedly: "Hey, Brother Yang is too modest to say this. How can someone who can sit in the position of honored guest be an ordinary person? Are you looking down on us with your prevarication?"

Yang Qing has a dark streak, and if it’s this kind of kidnapping thing, can’t there be some new words?

What happened to Tong'er today? He has always been competitive and aggressive, but he also knows how to distinguish between people and situations. He knows when to advance and when to retreat. Why is there such a big deal with this person named Yang today?

hostility?

Wang Pu just wanted to take over the conversation and make a haha, but he didn't expect that his son would rush to talk to the point where he couldn't change the words. This time it was difficult to handle.

In fact, after the banquet started, Wang Tong, who was sitting outside, had been observing the situation in the room, while Yang Qing had always maintained a calm and unfazed look. In his opinion, it was pretentious and very annoying. It was even more annoying.

What made him angry was that he actually observed Xia Houyue looking at Yang Qing inadvertently several times. He knew that Xia Houyue had not even glanced at him since Wang Tong sat down, which made him even more jealous.

So Wang Tong was ready to seize this opportunity to teach Yang Qing a lesson. After all, he believed that his talents were at the top of the younger generation, not to mention that he had already drafted the topic at home, and Yang

Qing was an unknown person, and he came from a poor family. He was expected to be at least rough in writing, but how could he compare to their family's family background, so he continued to use words to pressure him.

But Yang Qing was unmoved by this: "Brother Wang is overly worried. Madam Xiahou treated me as a guest because she was a tenant and it was our first time meeting her. And Qing, a humble scholar,

You only know a few words, how dare you look down on the nobles? Brother Wang, please don't misunderstand Yang."

Okay, now you know, this is the first time for a certain family to meet Mrs. Xiahou. They didn’t know each other before. How can it affect your prince’s pursuit of women? Don’t mistake the wrong person for your love rival!

Although Wang Tong is a narrow-minded person, he is not stupid. He understands what Yang Qing means.

How should this end? Should we just let him go, or should we continue to target him?
