Chapter 417: After Chess, there is a heart-to-heart comparison

"Oh, it seems interesting in the building. ”

As soon as a few people walked in and looked at the scene in the hall, someone spoke out, and the person who spoke was Xi Muyuan, who had a relationship with Qiu Yan.

In this group of people, in addition to Zhen Zhizuo and Xi Muyuan, they also include Zheng Yi of the Spring and Autumn Academy, who had met with Qiu Yan, and An Jin of Jiuyuan Academy.

The rest of the people are also extraordinary, a look, an expression, can affect the minds of others, each of them has a kind of momentum born of deep cultivation, as soon as they enter the building, they immediately diffuse a burst of aura, so that the surrounding Confucian students subconsciously avoid aside.

Those who recognized the identities of several people were even more silent, greeting again and again.

These people are the mainstays of several major academies in the Eastern Capital, and the real core figures, each of them can be called a banner, and in terms of status, they are not too much to do with the high pine of Chongli Academy, and even surpass it.

The time chosen by a few people to enter the building is also extraordinary, although there are no hard and fast rules for Wenxuan's tasting, there is no clear process, on the surface, it is just a gathering between literati, but similar things have happened in the past, so it can roughly estimate the time, many people understand that after a few Confucians, gentlemen have finished annotating and ranking, they will appear, and at that time, the evaluation will begin.

Calculate the time, in fact, it is imminent, and the person who comes at this juncture can be regarded as the finale, that is, the belated arrival in the proverbial manner, grasping the degree, can reflect the status of being different from others.

This is also a situation specially created by Xi Muyuan, he first met Gao Song on the way, debated with him, and had a slight upper hand, and then met friends from other academies, and after talking, he met Zhen Zhizuo and Zheng Yi, followed by greetings, zuihou. There were also unexpected visitors, and they greeted everyone one by one.

Back and forth, the time consumed was all in Xi Muyuan's calculations, and when he arrived at Wenxuan Building, this situation of Zuihou's arrival was formed.

However, according to Xi Muyuan's thoughts, when they walked into the building, they must have faced a pair of eyes full of surprise and awe, but right now. They were greeted with awe-struck eyes, but the number was too small.

With a turn of his eyes, Xi Muyuan noticed that most of the people were gathered in a corner of the hall, not knowing what they were looking at, and the outermost Confucian scholar stood on tiptoe, stretched his neck, and looked in desperately. Someone stood directly on the stairs next to him, looking condescendingly, nodding from time to time.

"Gentlemen, you should not have ranked the article and circulated it to you. Why are they all gathered in one place?" Xi Muyuan pressed the unhappiness in his heart, looked at the situation, and pretended to be unintentional.

As soon as these words fell, a thick voice came from outside the door.

"Mr. Xi is curious. Let's go over and take a look, and we will naturally know the difference. ”

The voice fell, and a strong man walked in. The tiger has a bear on his waist and wears deep clothes, but he is stretched tight by the bulging muscles, giving people a feeling of strength and strength.

After this man came in, he touched his hair, and his hair was tied by a turban, crooked and scattered, and it could be seen that it was tied up temporarily, probably in a hurry, without careful care, messy, and indecent.

His skin is slightly dark, and his appearance and demeanor are very different from those of the Central Plains, giving people a fierce feeling.

It's just that such a fierce person, with a kind smile on his face at this time, expressed respect and respect for Xi Muyuan, Zhen Zhizuo and others, and was courteous and thoughtful in his words, and he was more enthusiastic than ordinary Central Plains people.

Brother Doru was right, so he went over and took a look. Xi Muyuan smiled slightly, was very friendly to this strong man, and called out his name.

This man is none other than Dolu, who once walked with King Yan.

It can be seen that the scholarly atmosphere in this Doruin Building is suppressing his temperament, and while Xi Muyuan is speaking, he looks around a few times, and unabashedly shows his envy: "It is worthy of the Middle-earth Heavenly Empire, and even the layout in the building is exquisite, I am a rough person, I can't see the subtlety, but I can also feel the extraordinary and profound meaning from the subtleties, as if I can calm my mind." ”

Zhen Zhizuo said: "The owner of this Wenxuan building is a great person, and the reason why I agreed to list this building as a place for evaluation this time is because it is in the face of several gentlemen." ”

"I see. Dolu hurriedly thanked Zhen Zhizuo, his posture was very low, but when he bowed his head and saluted, a burst of essence erupted in those eyes, revealing greedy desire, and there was an urge to snatch everything around him into his hands, but when he looked up, the strange look in his eyes was gone, replaced by a look of respect.

Because of the angle of sight, the people around me didn't notice anything unusual.

While speaking, several people stepped on the stairs, and along the way, Confucian scholars recognized the identities of several people and saluted and retreated.

Doru said again: "The Heavenly Empire is true to everyone knows etiquette, and the top and bottom are orderly, if our grassland can be like this, it will be good." When I go back this time, I hope that a few people can appreciate their faces, so that I can wait for the people of the grassland to bathe in the literature of the Heavenly Empire. ”

Xi Muyuan said with a smile: "Brother Dolu, you really know how to get stitches." ”

Doru shook his head and said: "Isn't there a saying in the Central Plains that 'sincerity is the opening of the golden stone', a certain family believes that as long as you persevere, you will definitely be able to impress you." As he spoke, his gaze swept over Zhen Zhizuo and the others, with a sincere expression, but he did not get a response.

Although he received a cold reception, Doru was not discouraged at all, and still smiled.

"Okay, don't mention this matter for the time being, if you have the heart to ......" Xi Muyuan was talking, but his voice stopped abruptly, the smile froze on his face, his pupils shrank suddenly, and a figure was reflected-

It was Qiu Yan who was playing chess.

Several of them walked to the top of the stairs at this time, condescending, their eyes crossed the crowd, and landed inside, and they saw the picture of Qiu Yan playing against people clearly.

"Well, isn't this Qiu Yan? He's here too. Zhen Zhizuo saw it and couldn't help but speak.

"Not only that, in my opinion, Qiu Gongzi is here, and the picture is not small. Zheng Yi of the Spring and Autumn Academy also commented, always with a smile on his face.

"Huh?" Doru followed the gazes of several people, his gaze swept over the two people playing chess, and finally stopped at Qiu Yan, "Isn't this the old man of King Yan?"

He recognized Qiu Yan at the first time, and his heart moved.

A few days ago, he contacted King Yan and happened to meet Qiu Yan, after listening to Yang Ying's words, Dolu realized Qiu Yan's extraordinary, and had the heart to make friends, but was stopped by King Yan and finally failed.

In retrospect, he couldn't help but sigh a pity, but he didn't expect that he would be here again.

"This time, you can't let ...... go easily"

When Doru was thinking, the chess game had already been cleared, and he saw the person opposite Qiu Yan sighing, and then he threw himself into the defeat, and after getting up, he bowed to Qiu Yan again, with a respectful attitude and polite words.

Not only this person, but around the table, there were three or four people standing aside, from the subtleties of these people's expressions, you can see the meaning of respect, when Qiu Yan got up, several people took two steps back, and there was a faint taste of disciple salute.

The man surnamed Hu was also among them.

In fact, since Gao Song admitted defeat and the man surnamed Hu came forward, five sets have passed, and in these five games, only one person really finished one game, and the others all conceded defeat in the middle game.

"Even Jiang Han admitted defeat before he reached the middle game. ”

"Is this Qiu Yan really so powerful?"

"I don't know if it's my delusion, these people who play chess, their breath seems to have changed slightly......"

"It shouldn't be, hand to talk about the game, to compete with the mind and will, there is no fixed position, this Qiu Yan's chess strength is not high, there is no reason to force so many people to admit defeat in the middle of the game, and many of them still have an advantage. ”

In any case, this Qiu Yan is going to become famous. ”

"This person already has a reputation, and after this time, it will inevitably become famous. ”

The sound of discussion made Xi Muyuan's face more and more ugly, but Na Duolu's eyes lit up, and at the same time, listening to the conversation of Zhen Zhizuo and others, he slowly understood the root of Qiu Yan.

When Dolu heard about the defeat of He Shuchang and the attraction of Mr. Xiao Chen, strong emotional fluctuations burst out in his eyes, and he couldn't wait to go down immediately to make friends with Qiu Yan, but fortunately, he knew the severity and knew that leaving at this time would be tantamount to offending everyone present, so he held back again.

"Bear with it for a while, I go down now, there is no advantage, Qiu Yan has an old relationship with King Yan, I have done King Yan a great favor, use this favor, in exchange for King Yan's recommendation, there should be no problem, if you can invite this person back to the grassland......"

His mind fluctuated, and he made up his mind.

This Qiu Yan is also a bit famous these days, and it is not surprising that he appeared here, but the tasting has not yet begun, but he is playing there, which is inevitably not solemn enough. Xi Muyuan shook his head, he noticed the change in Dolu's expression, and even noticed the attitude of several people around Qiu Yan towards Qiu Yan, and his heart flashed unhappiness, and he wanted to suppress Qiu Yan's arrogance.

"Gao Song is also there to join in the fun......" glanced at it again, Xi Muyuan turned back to a few people around him: "Forget it, don't care about these for now, I told the teacher the day before yesterday that I want to listen to the teachings of all gentlemen, and the teacher allowed me to enter the house to watch silently, and said that the opportunity is rare, if you have the heart, you might as well go with you." ”

As he spoke, he smiled apologetically at Doru: "Brother Doru, please forgive me, this ......"

"Mr. Xi doesn't need to say much, a certain family understands. Doru waved his hand, "I came from the grassland, and I didn't come to visit you gentlemen at this time, but I just went up to meet the prince." Having said that, he inevitably showed regret, and even his thoughts about Qiu Yan were much lighter.

"It's a pity, there are a few top people in Dongdu Wendao in that room, looking at the world, I'm afraid I can also occupy a few buckets of talents, if I can visit and leave an impression, maybe ......"

Seeing his regret from Dolu's face, Xi Muyuan was proud, and felt that he had moved back to the first game, he turned his head and glanced at Qiu Yan again, said no more, and then led a few people upstairs.

"Even if you make a fuss here and make a name for yourself in the literary world of the Eastern Capital, you are just a scholar, but I can share the room with all the gentlemen and listen to the witty words, so that the judgment will be made. (To be continued......)
