Guo Jia and Xun You came over. Seeing Ma Xiaoquan frowning, they asked why.
Hua Lin is very well-behaved. After spending such a long time with Ma Xiaoquan, he naturally knows what Ma Xiaoquan is thinking.
Hua Lin explained: "Brother Shangxian is not willing to compete with that Lu Xian."
Xun You thought that Ma Xiaoquan was afraid of Lu Xian, so he comforted him: "Brother, just perform normally. Brother, don't forget that there are 5 candidates for Miss Hua Yuexin. Brother, you only need to win three times."
Guo Jia didn't think so. Guo Jia felt that Ma Xiaoquan would not be worried because of his confrontation with Lu Xian. Guo Jia felt that Ma Xiaoquan must be worried for other reasons.
Therefore, Guo Jiadao: "Brother, how can you do it three times? If you want to win, just win them all!"
Xun You looked at Guo Jia in surprise. Guo Jia looked confident. He firmly believed that Ma Xiaoquan could do it.
Ma Xiaoquan nodded and patted Guo Jia on the shoulder.
...
"Everyone..." At this moment, Hua Yixi appeared again, "Everyone, please be quiet... Next, we will hold the final civil and military battle of the first stage, and that is me
The five people selected by my granddaughter, Miss Hua Yuexin, will compete. Now I invite you, Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu."
As soon as Hua Yixi finished speaking, there were bursts of cheers from the audience, as if Young Master Lu had become the number one.
"Next, I would like to invite Mr. Bian from Yanzhou."
When he stepped onto the stage, he was greeted with the same thunderous cheers.
"I would like to invite Mr. Huang from Yizhou..."
"I would like to invite Mr. Jiang from Youzhou..."
The first four people came on stage, all accompanied by bursts of cheers. It seemed that these few were very famous in the wealthy circles.
While everyone was cheering, they heard Hua Yixi shout: "I'm inviting you below...that purple-haired young man..."
The audience fell silent for a moment.
Ma Xiaoquan looked depressed and cursed fiercely in his heart: "Fuck"
Although he was depressed, Ma Xiaoquan still said to everyone: "Oh, okay, thank you, thank you..."
Seeing Ma Xiaoquan clasping his fists all the way to the stage, no one in the audience was willing to cheer for him. Guo Jia originally wanted to cheer Ma Xiaoquan, but when he was about to speak, Xun You stopped him.
"Why are you pulling me?" Guo Jia was a little reluctant.
Xun You whispered: "Fengxiao, think twice, you see these people don't seem to want to see my brother."
Guo Jia disagreed: "None of my business!"
Xun You was shocked. This was the first curse word he heard Guo Jia say in the days since he and Guo Jia had known each other.
Guo Jia cleared his throat and said loudly: "Brother, you can do it!" Guo Jia said, raised his right fist and waved it vigorously.
At this time, two little girls, Miaoyu and Hualin, also joined in. In an instant, two tender voices filled the venue.
"Brother, come on"
"Brother Shangxian is the best"
Ma Xiaoquan was originally very passionate, but when he heard the voices of the two female relatives, half of the momentum he had built up suddenly disappeared.
"Haha..." The wealthy people in the audience laughed at Ma Xiaoquan.
"That purple-haired brother, let me see you go down and let a woman cheer you up, it's so embarrassing..."
"That's right......"
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled and explained: "You actually don't understand how wonderful it is to be trusted by the woman you love..."
Ma Xiaoquan silenced everyone with one sentence.
A group of wealthy children looked at me and I looked at you, and they all thought about the meaning of Ma Xiaoquan's words.
"Hey" someone sighed.
The situation was easily resolved by Ma Xiaoquan, while the two little girls Miaoyu and Hualin hugged each other happily.
Miaoyu said to Hualin: "Lin'er, did you hear that Brother Shangxian said that we are his beloved women..."
Hua Lin blushed and nodded vigorously.
Behind the stage, in a sedan chair, Hua Yuexin curled her lips, snorted, and cursed softly: "You're a disciple."
After everyone was in place, Hua Yixi announced the lineup, with Lu Xian facing Ma Xiaoquan, and Bian Rang facing Mr. Jiang from Youzhou... The competition system adopts the rule of competition without byes, that is, Ma Xiaoquan and one person,
You have to compete with the other four people individually, and the same goes for everyone else.
The first competition was between Ma Xiaoquan and Mr. Lu. If it had been anyone else, it might not have attracted much attention.
But Mr. Lu's name is still very famous in the world of wealthy families. Therefore, regardless of Ma Xiaoquan's reputation, Mr. Lu alone has already made all the wealthy families here look forward to it, and some young women from wealthy families are even more excited.
Unabashedly sending autumn spinach to Mr. Lu.
On Ma Xiaoquan's side, although there were not that many people cheering him on, seeing Guo Jia standing extremely firmly on his side, Ma Xiaoquan smiled with satisfaction.
It's enough to have a confidant in life, that's what Ma Xiaoquan thinks at this moment.
"You two..." Hua Yixi stepped forward, looked at Lu Xian, and then at Ma Xiaoquan, "Are you two ready?"
Lu Xian raised his head, his Chinese character face looking very resolute.
"Yeah." Ma Xiaoquan also nodded.
"The competition begins"
After giving the order, Lu Xian took the lead in attacking. Without the effort of burning an incense stick, Lu Xian actually composed a poem. The four people in the audience clapped their hands and applauded.
"It's your turn, brother." Lu Xian looked at Ma Xiaoquan arrogantly, his face full of pride.
Ma Xiaoquan nodded and quickly activated the data device in his body.
"Ah, yes." Ma Xiaoquan chuckled and said: "The mountains are not high, if there are immortals, they are famous. The water is not deep, if there are dragons, they are spiritual. This is a humble house, but I am virtuous. The upper steps are green with moss marks, and the color of grass enters the curtains.
Qing. There are scholars who talk and laugh, and there are no white men who come and go. They can tune the plain harp and read the golden scriptures. There is no mess of silk and bamboo, and there is no hard work of writing documents. Confucius said: What is so shabby?"
Ma Xiaoquan recited the inscription on the humble house in one breath. Of course, Ma Xiaoquan did not recite the sentence "Zhuge Lu in Nanyang, Yunting in Xishu" because Zhuge Liang hadn't appeared yet. If he said it at this time, wouldn't it be confusing?
Got it?
Lu Xian was also shocked. He had already achieved 70% success in making a poem with just one stick of incense. If he could do it faster, it would not be impossible, but if he did this, the other side would be
Doesn’t Rang know his own strength?
Lu Xian currently does not regard Ma Xiaoquan as his opponent. Firstly, he does not understand the opponent, and secondly, it is because Ma Xiaoquan is not well-known and has not produced any earth-shaking masterpieces.
In comparison, Bian Rang, the author of Zhang Huatai Fu, is even more famous, and it is said that Bian Rang's skills are quite good.
Ma Xiaoquan looked at Lu Xian proudly, and was secretly happy in his heart: Boy, can I compare poetry and lyrics with you, Mr. Ma? You are a little too young. The data device in Mr. Ma's body contains 300 poems from the Tang Dynasty, and a lot of lyrics from the Song and Yuan Dynasties.
Well, Mr. Ma doesn’t believe it, will he kill you?
Lu Xian was not convinced, so he played another song.
After Ma Xiaoquan listened, it seemed that he didn't even think about it, and he started talking about a whole paragraph of "The Story of Yueyang Tower".
The wealthy people in the audience did not expect that this unknown purple-haired man could have such literary talent. For a while, these people all admired Ma Xiaoquan.
After the competition between the two poems was over, Lu Xian was already frightened.
"Who are you?" Lu Xian blushed and yelled.
Ma Xiaoquan waved his hand, looking indifferent, meaning: Boy, guess what?
Lu Xian's face suddenly became solemn, and he carefully observed the purple-haired man in front of him.
To be honest, this purple-haired man looks pretty good, of course, except for his face shape. Ma Xiaoquan said, "Oh, my oval face, let me say it again, this is the standard face of a handsome guy in modern times." After observing it for a long time, Lu
He didn't dare to continue the competition for now. He was afraid that even with all his strength, he wouldn't be able to defeat the purple-haired man in front of him.
"I surrender!" Lu Xian raised his hands to express surrender.
Everyone was shocked when Lu Xian surrendered.
Many people in the audience clearly knew that Lu Xian was more than capable, but they didn't understand why Mr. Lu gave up after just two contests.
Lu Xian shook his head helplessly and walked to the audience. On the stage, Ma Xiaoquan looked at Lu Xian thoughtfully.
"Knowing how to advance and retreat will make you a difficult opponent..." Ma Xiaoquan sighed, shook his head and left the stage.
In the second game, Bien gave way to Young Master Jiang from Youzhou. The result was as expected, and Bien gave way to a complete victory.
The next two scenes were about Ma Xiaoquan's confrontation with Mr. Jiang from Youzhou and Mr. Huang from Yizhou respectively. With the lessons learned from Mr. Lu Xianlu, the two young masters who knew current affairs only wrote a few symbolic poems, and that was it.
Declare surrender.
Ma Xiaoquan was also a little lucky. After all, if Mingfa hadn't installed a data device in his body before, otherwise he, Ma Xiaoquan, would have been completely defeated in this stage of civil and military competition.
The strong will always be sought after.
After winning three consecutive literary battles, Ma Xiaoquan's influence among the wealthy family suddenly increased.
Someone said: "Where is that purple-haired man from? Listening to his accent, why do you think he has some connections to anywhere..."
Some people also said: "Don't worry about where that brother is from, he can win against Mr. Lu, Mr. Jiang and Mr. Huang in succession. That brother is indeed outstanding in literary talent..."
...
In this way, everyone was talking about Ma Xiaoquan, and the atmosphere gradually relaxed. The wealthy families who were not optimistic about Ma Xiaoquan before now changed their camps one after another and cheered for him; some older wealthy family parents
They said that if Ma Xiaoquan was willing to accept students, they would be willing to send their children to him to study with him; even more, they boldly stated that if Ma Xiaoquan was willing to take a concubine, they would offer thousands of taels of gold in order to obtain their own.
His daughter, nieces, nephews and granddaughters married him as concubines...
Lu Xian stood silently with a pale face. His subordinate Yuan Fang did not dare to say anything when he saw his young master's face.
This time, Lu Xian miscalculated.
As early as the beginning of the primary election, he should have paid attention to this purple-haired man. Fortunately, not only had most of his fan base been taken away by others, but also the few wealthy women who had shown affection for him before.
Turning against him and turning his back on him, this...
"I'm so angry!" Lu Xian snorted coldly, shook his sleeves fiercely, and left.
