Chapter 333;
Complete defeat
"Sister Miaomiao, can you tell me?"
Cheng Lixue turned around and asked.
"No, this pair is very difficult. Let alone a stick of incense, I'm afraid even if I give it ten days and a half, I won't have a clue."
As soon as these words came out, Lu Mingxi immediately breathed a sigh of relief and patted his chest gently.
"That's good, that's good."
At this time, Han Chengjie on the opposite side also finished writing.
"I've already written it."
"Same."
After the two of them finished speaking, King Jin stood up.
First, he took Han Chengjie's pair from in front of him, took a look at it, and immediately frowned, looking at Lu Yaoyao with some worry in his heart.
Han Chengjie's pair was not an easy one, so he immediately walked up to Lu Yaoyao with the pair in hand, glanced at the table in front of her, and saw only five words, and his heart immediately skipped a beat.
But he soon came to his senses, and the solemnity in his eyes dissipated a lot.
"This is his match."
"Thank you, Your Majesty the King of Jin."
After Lu Yaoyao took it, King Jin picked up Lu Yaoyao's pair and returned it to Han Chengjie and handed it over.
Cheng Lixue, Wen Miaomiao, and Lu Mingxi immediately gathered around to look at the couplet written by Han Chengjie.
"This is breaking up word couplets, it's very difficult."
As soon as Wen Miaomiao opened her mouth, Cheng Lixue and Lu Mingxi beside her became worried.
Lu Yaoyao smiled, reached for the brush, dipped ink and started writing.
"In the first couplet, a person who was once a monk cannot become a Buddha."
"In the second line, a woman is humbled as a maid but can also be called a slave."
As soon as she finished writing, Wen Miaomiao's eyes lit up and she clapped her hands and praised.
"That's right, the county master's sister is really amazing."
Her voice was very high, attracting everyone's attention. Everyone was startled at first, especially Han Chengjie. His pair was extraordinary. How could they show off so quickly?
Dong Shan'er was also very curious, so she got up from her seat and walked over quickly.
As soon as she got closer, before she even had time to say hello, her eyes noticed the pairs on the table, and she was stunned when she saw them.
After a while, she saluted Lu Yaoyao and said, "The county boss is a great talent."
"What a great talent? This thing is too simple to be called a great talent."
Lu Yaoyao waved his hand, which made Han Chengjie gnash his teeth across from him. This was a pair he had been thinking about for a long time, and he thought it was impossible for Lu Yaoyao to get it right.
But I never expected that the other party would not only come out, but also do it so quickly.
But when he faced Lu Yaoyao's couplet, he was still confused.
Not only was he confused, but all the male guests were a little confused when they saw these five-character pairs.
Is this a match that anyone can come up with?
Seeing him scratching his head, Dong Xiang and the three referees were also curious. Since there were male guests here, all four of them got up and walked over.
When they saw that pair, they all gasped.
This couple is truly amazing.
Not to mention one stick of incense, even ten sticks of incense, I'm afraid I can't even hope to get it right.
Dong Xiang turned to look at Lu Yaoyao. At this time, Lu Yaoyao was talking and laughing with Cheng Lixue and others leisurely, without any pressure at all.
He couldn't help but shook his head.
"This is the gap."
"Sure enough, she is worthy of Lu Wenzong, who made the civil servants bow their heads at the Jinluan Palace. Han Chengjie, who dares to compete with her, is really digging his own grave."
The result of this game was already clear, and Dong Xiang turned around and returned to his seat.
"How is it? What pair did Wanfu County Lord play?"
Mrs. Dong is also very curious.
"It's a great pairing, I'm afraid I can't even match it."
"How awesome?"
Mrs. Dong was quite shocked.
She was aware of her husband's literary talents. Although he was not top-notch, he could still be considered a great scholar. After all, the Dong family followed the scribe route.
There are many great scholars in the family, and there have been countless talented scholars in the past dynasties.
"Han Chengjie lost completely this time."
Mrs. Dong couldn't help but look at Han Chengjie when she thought of the bet, shaking her head and thinking, this guy is ruined.
Not only was he ruined whether he actually fulfilled his bet afterwards.
It goes without saying that you should perform, but if you don't perform, you can't afford to lose. Although failure to perform is serious, your reputation will be completely ruined in the future, and it is impossible to pick it up again.
Looking at Han Chengjie's side again, looking at the five-character pair, there was more and more sweat on his forehead in the winter.
When the people next to him saw him like this, they shook their heads and snickered inwardly.
Han Chengjie usually offends people a lot by relying on his family background and literary talents. Due to his background, everyone can only endure it.
I didn't dare to show it, but now that I saw him deflated, I couldn't help but feel happy.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible, how could I lose to her?"
Han Chengjie, who racked his brains and couldn't think of the second line, started to get confused and shook his head repeatedly.
Seeing him like this, King Jin's mouth curled up slightly. This guy's defeat was determined, and he felt relieved.
He turned his eyes to look at Lu Yaoyao, who was joking with Cheng Lixue and others, with a touch of tenderness in his eyes.
She is really a strange woman who surprises people every time.
After sighing, he thought of what happened that day again, and his eyes suddenly darkened.
Fortunately, the people in the hall were paying attention to Han Chengjie and Lu Yaoyao, so they did not notice his changes.
Soon, it was time for a stick of incense.
"His Royal Highness King Jin, the time has come."
Prime Minister Dong opened his mouth to remind.
King Jin immediately came to his senses, stood up and announced loudly.
"Time's up."
Everyone looked at King Jin in unison. Just as he went to Lu Yaoyao to take out the son, he first showed the first couplet written by Han Chengjie.
After everyone saw it, they all thought about it in their hearts.
Han Chengjie seemed to have grasped the last life-saving straw at this time. He failed to counterattack. If he wanted not to lose now, he could only hope that Lu Yaoyao also failed to counterattack, so that they would be tied.
However, King Jin seemed to be aware of his thoughts, and the next moment he directly displayed Lu Yaoyao's second line.
"Wonderful, that's a good match."
"Okay, okay, it's indeed Lu Wenzong. He deserves the title Wenzong."
Everyone praised him repeatedly, but Han Chengjie looked at Lu Yaoyao's pair intently and felt numb all over.
The life-saving straw is gone.
"Next is the pair from Lord Wanfu County."
"Han Chengjie, are you ready to come out?"
Hearing this, Han Chengjie didn't want to admit it, but in the end when the facts were in front of him, he could only shake his head.
King Jin walked over and showed Lu Yaoyao's pair to everyone.
Everyone didn't react at first sight, but when they saw it again, everyone gasped.
The Lord of Wanfu County is determined to kill Han Chengjie.
Look at what this couple did, they are really amazing.
"Master Wanfu County, he didn't show up. According to the agreement, you must show up this second line of your own, so that he will lose."
Lu Yaoyao smiled and nodded, then he picked up his pen and wrote five more characters.
"Peach Burns Jinjiang Embankment."
Wow!
After everyone made an uproar, they all looked at Han Chengjie. At this time, Han Chengjie could no longer stand and fell down softly.
Chapter completed!
