However, when Zhu Xiuyuan saw clearly what that person looked like, he suddenly became wary.

Zhu Xiuyuan recognized the person who looked at him with extremely gloomy eyes. This person was a descendant of the Xue family and the grandson of Xue Baochang, named Xue Yuan!

Xue family!

Zhu Xiuyuan and Dong Cheng had long suspected that the Xue family was behind the assassination of Zhu Xiuyuan by black-clad assassins and the robbery of Dong Shuyu by Lushan bandits two days ago.

For this reason, Zhu Xiuyuan had a thorough understanding of the Xue family.

That's why he could recognize who this person was at a glance.

Zhu Xiuyuan secretly observed this person and found that Xue Yuan had close conversations with several people at his table, apparently being "collaborators."

However, Zhu Xiuyuan didn't recognize these people at all. There shouldn't be such a number one person in Jiangzhou City, right?

Zhu Xiuyuan also thought that a large part of the people who came to attend the 50th birthday banquet of Poyang Palace today were from the capital. Zhu Xiuyuan was not familiar with the capital, but Liu Wencai was.

So Zhu Xiuyuan asked Liu Wencai.

Liu Wencai took a look and said with a smile: "Brother Zhang, I really know those two people!"

"Oh, who are they?"

"Brother Zhu, look at that tall and thin man, he is the son of the magistrate of Jiangning County in the capital city, and the short and fat man is the son of the ambassador of the Jiangning Weaving Bureau in the capital city."

"oh……"

Zhu Xiuyuan nodded and looked at the two people.

But I saw that the two people seemed to be very active, and I heard the son of the ambassador of Jiangning Weaving Bureau say loudly: "...Come, come, come, we are the dealer when the market opens, we are the dealer when the market opens...Buy Mr. Zhang's loss, and those who missed Shikui, I will pay for it."

ten……"

"Brother Zhu, the so-called Mr. Zhang is the son of the county magistrate of Jiangning County. His surname is Zhang Ke. The son of the ambassador of the Jiangning County Textile Bureau who shouted is Luo Ding." Liu Wencai explained casually.

"Ten for one? Is Zhang Ke so sure?" Zhu Xiuyuan was very curious.

If you lose ten times, that is to say, if Zhang Ke does not win the poetry competition in the end, then he will lose ten times his principal!

If too many people buy it, Zhang Ke will definitely lose all the pants.

When Zhu Xiuyuan asked this question, he had been observing Zhang Ke's expression, and saw that his face was indifferent, and there was even a vague smile on the corner of his mouth. He was extremely confident, and it seemed that the final candidate for Shikui must belong to him.

Like!

"Um...Brother Zhu, you don't know something. This Zhang Ke...is a famous talent in the capital. His poetic talent is unparalleled. He is known as the number one poet among the young generation of Chen Kingdom!"

"No wonder, the son of a county magistrate dares to be so arrogant in front of all the princes and young princes. It turns out he is really a talented man!"

"Huh! It's just a little literary..." Liu Wencai said this somewhat insincerely, and his face gradually fell.

Zhu Xiu saw this and asked strangely: "The young prince seems to have some objections to this person?"

Liu Wencai glanced at Zhang Ke and said dejectedly: "Brother Zhu, although Zhang Ke is arrogant and domineering, even I and other princes' children have never looked down upon him...but his poetic talent is indeed...ah!"

"Why is the young prince sighing? This guy is just the son of a county magistrate. Why do you dare to be so arrogant that even the young prince doesn't take him seriously?"

"Hey, Brother Zhu, to tell you the truth, behind the county magistrate of Jiangning County, there is the support of the Prime Minister of the country... Besides, when we and other literati walk in the poetry world, we are judged based on their poetic talents. Hey! Brother Zhu, that's all.

, I didn’t expect Zhang Ke and Luo Ding to be here, and Miss Wanwan’s fan... I’m afraid we and other brothers may not have a chance to see it!"

After Liu Wencai finished speaking, her face looked very sad, as if all the strength in her body had been taken away!

In this regard, Zhu Xiuyuan had nothing to say besides being speechless. Zhu Xiuyuan didn't bother to take care of the jealousy among the young masters.

He and Dong Cheng looked at each other and nodded secretly.

Judging from the Xue Yuan of the Xue family just now, the person behind this is most likely the Xue family.

The Xue family planned carefully and launched a fatal blow to the Dong family, but they did not expect that the Dong family also had two foxes, big and small, and they had already begun to doubt the Xue family!

"I bought Mr. Zhang to win the title of Poetry..."

"Don't squeeze, I also believe that Mr. Zhang can win the first place in poetry..."

"Shikui belongs to Mr. Zhang, I'll buy a thousand taels!"

"I'll buy five thousand taels!"

"I'll buy ten thousand taels!"

…

Zhu Xiuyuan has been paying attention to the movements of Xue Yuan, Zhang Ke and others.

Since the opening of the gambling game, as many as forty or fifty people have come to place bets, but almost all of them bet on Zhang Keneng winning the first place.

With this kind of buying method, Luo Ding, as the banker, is very likely to lose blood.

If Zhang Ke really wins the position of Shigui, then all the pants they will lose will be pawned.

However, Zhang Ke and Luo Ding were both calm and unfazed.

Faced with the situation where everyone is buying Zhang Ke to win the title of poetry leader, some people are happy, and naturally some people are not happy.

For example, Liu Wencai, the heirs of various princes, the sons of high-ranking officials who also came from the capital, or literati, etc.

Just like Liu Wencai, the heirs of princes and princes, there are only a few of them who know how to recite poems and compose poems.

The sons of princes are actually the sons of generals. There are more people who practice martial arts, but they don't know much about poetry.

Liu Wencai is an anomaly who talks about poetry.

However, Zhang Ke was so arrogant, which could be regarded as stealing the place of the princes and heirs, which made people unhappy.

As for the sons of civil servants and literati, they were even more unhappy with the behavior of Zhang Ke and others!

The poetry meeting hasn't even started yet, and I don't even know what the title of the poem will be. You, Zhang Ke, are so brazen that you are the best in poetry. It's too arrogant and arrogant!

Among these literati, there were quite a few who came specifically for Kou Wanwan's round fan.

They also want that fan and the name Shikui!

Therefore, the vast majority of people present could not understand the behavior of Zhang Ke and others.

But as Liu Wencai said, Zhang Ke's father was backed by the Prime Minister of the country. Although his official position was relatively low, the princes and senior officials of the court who were sitting here were not willing to get involved in such a dispute of emotions.

Not worth it.

Let them be!

"Humph! What a bully!" Suddenly, Liu Wencai, who was sitting next to Zhu Xiuyuan, jumped up. Zhu Xiuyuan asked hurriedly: "Young prince, what are you doing?"

Liu Wencai stared at Zhang Ke and others, as if sparks were coming out of his eyes, "No, I'm going to buy Zhang Keshu!"

Zhu Xiuyuan grabbed Liu Wencai and said, "Young prince, you just said that Zhang Ke is very likely to win the Shigui. If you buy Zhang Ke to lose, isn't this giving them money?!"

"Brother Zhu, please don't stop me. I just can't stand Zhang Ke's face. Isn't it just money...Brother Zhu, please don't stop me..." Liu Wencai suddenly got stuck mid-sentence and turned around to look blankly.
