Chapter 37 Kou Xianren (1)

On the boat, more than a dozen scholars were waiting for the railing. The big white goose suddenly said angrily: "That guy is here."

A small boat was sailing towards them, and a young man with a very elegant temperament stood at the head of the boat.

"I am worthy of being the number one talented man in Jiangnan," said Zhong Wuyou, the president of Jiangnan Xingshe, who is famous for his three-worry talented man. Although he is also a famous handsome man, he was immediately at a disadvantage compared to the two.

"Just seeking fame," said the president of Yuntian Society dissatisfied. "A mere poem is spread by rumors. How can a poet be so easy to be a poet?"

The big white goose agrees deeply.

"No matter what, this person is the last Jieyuan, after all," said South China Peak with a smile.

"Let's go and welcome it."

Kou Li and the other two showed the invitation, boarded the boat, and saw that they were all floating in their sleeves, blue-clothed and silhouetted shirts, exuding a gentle sensation.

"There are still many female young men," Sesame Master whispered. Sure enough, there were several white-faced and jade-necked figures with a little pinkish-painted figures; among them, there were both the honest officials of the Chu Pavilion in the brothel and the children of noble officials.

As soon as Kou Li arrived, countless eyes suddenly shot over, some scrutiny, some curiosity, and some admiration. After all, they were famous talents in history, such as Tang Bohu, Li Taibai, Su Dongpo, and Liu Sanbian. They were also after their fame and fortune were blocked, and they began to express their feelings in the mountains and rivers, living in drunkenness, and few people automatically gave up fame and fortune.

This is also the reason why Kou Li was praised as the number one talented man in Jiangnan after only one poem. The key is no longer poetry, but because his personality is too high.

Every scholar has a fantasy in his heart, and Kou Li just turns it into reality.

"Is it him? He is Kou Xianren?" On another painting boat not far away, there were two beauties, one big and one small, with big beauties with black oily hair, red silk rope tied with silk, tall, handsomer than a man, pretty than a woman, with warm eyes as water, and no turbulence at all.

"Hehe, sister, your enemy is here," the little beauty said with her two tulip heads, her little eyes were nimble, and she suddenly said cunningly.

The beauty was silent, "Enemy, let's just count it."

"Brother Kou, it's been a long time since I left," said South China Peak.

"Brother Hua, Brother Baige, we meet again," Kou Li chuckled.

"We colleagues from the poetry club have used the scenery of the vast sea, sky and clouds to write several poems. Since Xianren Kou has just arrived, can there be a new work?" The president of Yuntian Club suddenly said.

For a moment, everyone was staring at Kou Li, wanting to see the masterpiece of this immortal Kou after his return.

Even the young master Sesame clenched his hands tightly. He helped Kou Li so enthusiastically, so naturally he was not only for the friendship of friends, but also for investment. If Kou Li was really talented and swept the poetry club, he, as a friend, would naturally become famous.

The beauties of all sizes also looked at each other curiously, wanting to see what amazing works are there from the mouth of the poet.

"The poem is written, there is no such thing as yet," Kou Li said suddenly.

"Hey, hey, hey?"

Everyone was uproared. Even if the other party really didn't deserve the name, they should have written a few songs before coming. How could it not be there at the beginning?

Next, no matter how the people in these poetry clubs squeeze, seduce, provoke, or how the Sesame Master winks, Kou Li just says two words - no, which quickly turns everyone's eyes into suspicion, disdain, and contempt.

"Brother Kou, what's going on? This is different from what we said before. If this continues, how can you hold the beauty back?" Sesame Master said anxiously, "According to my inquiry, Feng Sanniang must be somewhere in this place. If Brother Kou does not show his talent, how can you hold the beauty back!"

That's right, this is the biggest secret in this provincial examination, the granddaughter of Feng, the current examiner Xu Hanlin, has also come to Jiangning Mansion with his father. As long as Kou Li can hook up with the other party, he will be fine.

For the sake of his granddaughter, Mr. Feng naturally wanted to protect the future of his grandson-in-law. Xu Hanlin was the same. The two former school officials jointly wrote a letter, and Kou Li did not do anything, so he naturally had a great chance of restoring his fame and fortune.

This is the legendary handsome man trick!

After all, Brother Kou is someone who can make a living by his face.

But Feng Sanniang is also a famous talented woman. Brother Kou, you really may not be able to succeed by just scanning your face!!!

"Mr. Xu is here, and Mr. Hua, Mr. Er, and Lu Daru!"

As soon as the words were finished, students and scholars rushed in. After all, these big scholars were the protagonists in this poetry party. If you learn well, you will become an official. After all, who wants to be a poet who is in a poor life?

But in a moment, only a fallen leaf was left beside Kou Li and the others.

"Let's go in too," Kou Li chuckled.

"That's all," said Sesame Master dejectedly. There is no masterpiece passed down from generation to generation. The title of Kou Xianren is probably not guaranteed after this poetry meeting.

Entering the boat, we moved the spacious space to the fullest, and there was no one in half of the seats. Kou Li and the others could only sit at the edge.

The three great scholars sitting on the main seat, a middle-aged man with a tall crown and yellow face, had two beards and fish-pig eyes on his left, and the right was a very simple image of a great scholar, with a straight body and serious appearance.

These three are Xu Hanlin, Mr. Huada and Mr. Second from the Jin Academy. Mr. Huada is the director of Sanhua Academy and the father of the South China Peak. Mr. Second is a famous romantic talent in Jiangnan, who is the best at poetry and essays.

A moment later, Lu Daru also walked over with the books, facing the scholars, sitting on the ground, and most of the talents showed a look of respect. This former Minister of Personnel, who was a disciple of the world, had his old friends, and was very popular with the people.

"The wise enjoy the mountains, and the benevolent enjoy the water. There are great articles among the mountains and rivers, which is a subtle statement of great meaning..."

Unexpectedly, Lu Daru gave up poetry and verses at the beginning, but he talked about the classics and the most important things, but the people present listened very seriously. The poetry meetings before the local poetry and the famous poetry meeting were more of political considerations.

The candidates should not be careless about the candidates, nor should they be too concerned about them, so they should use poetry to study and apply to everyone.

As expected, these scholars were all prepared to talk about the collection of scriptures and were unparalleled in their arguments. Who knew the content related to the provincial examination was between these words.

Later, even Mr. Huada and Mr. Second were involved. Only Xu Hanlin kept silent and looked serious. After all, he was the examiner, and if he had a slightest reluctance, he would be associated with various things.

"Brother Kou--" Mr. Sesame wanted to speak but stopped.

Kou Li waved his hand and looked at the debate with interest, without any intention of interrupting. In fact, he had no intention of playing according to the routine.

Who is he? He is a person in charge of the six Southeast provinces, including military affairs, officialdom, pirates, and even the big shots behind overseas. On the surface, he may not be as powerful as the fight in western Yunnan and domineering, but the power in secret is not weaker than the opponent. How could he use his talents to be famous like an ordinary scholar?

He is here to negotiate.

Military generals lead the army and civil servants govern the country. How could those above not know their true identities? Even if they do not pay special attention, the above sight will occasionally "inadvertently" scan.

"Okay, since it's a poetry gathering, I'm no longer annoying, everyone, let's start."

Lu Daru ended with this sentence, and the surroundings suddenly became "not afraid".

"Everyone, since we are waiting on the Jinling River, we will use the river water as the title. How about chanting poems?" Mr. Huada said with a smile.

"Since that's the case, I'm welcome. A pool of autumn water soaks in the bright moon, and golden scales rise up layer by layer..."

The scene was extremely lively for a while, and poets showed their talents and knowledge. Many people secretly looked at Kou Li. Seeing that he had no movement, they breathed a sigh of relief or showed a look of contempt.

Mr. Sesame's eyes were almost blinking, but Kou Li still didn't move. Could it be that this guy really doesn't have real talent?

The second gentleman on the main seat noticed this scene, his eyes turned, and he showed a playful expression, and suddenly raised his voice: "Where is Xianren Kou?"

Kou Li paused, finally got up, and said calmly in the eyes of the crowd: "Kou is here, I have seen Xu Hanlin and several gentlemen."

"Oh, why don't you call Xu Hanlin a gentleman?" said Mr. II.
