Everyone laughed enough, and sat down one after another, Princess Qingyuan sat down with Wanru and Li Ling, and I don't know if she intended to do so.

After Chen Shouzhong waited for everyone to sit down, he said with a smile: "Today we have three amusement projects, the last two I won't say first, let's talk about the first one, that is, the couplet that has long been popular in Shuzhong today, let's try it today, everyone has to write a pair, if you don't understand, I can explain it on the spot." ”

"As long as the battle is neat and in line with the current festive season, or Yongjing, or Yanzhi, or lyrical, five words, seven words, or even a dozen words can be done, and the number of words is not limited. In the end, it will be judged by all of us, and the top three will have heavy rewards, as for the prizes, they are all provided by Brother Yuan, and I don't know what they are until now. Hehe! Okay, if you don't understand something, you can ask me, and I won't care when I start. ”

The Prison Clan was the first to ask: "We haven't been in contact with this couplet before, what kind of battle is the method?" Are there any requirements? Also, we strongly ask to know what the prize is, hee-hee! ”

Li Ling followed and coaxed: "I strongly oppose it first, it's too unfair for us women to compete with you men, there are four champions on your men's side alone, and the others are all Jinshi in the palace examination, and we, the female streamers, have little knowledge at home, how can we still have a share of our women?" I think it is only fair to be separated from each other, otherwise how can I compare with you? ”

The other women laughed and supported together, and even Princess Qingyuan laughed and protested.

Lu Guangtu stepped forward and grinned and said: "Good girl, you still talk about remembering your brother all day long, and you still count the wrong one, your brother and I don't have any Jinshi or champion in Laoshizi, but I have been mixed in Taixue for a few years, and this level is also very limited, and it is not all the way with them." ”

"So I'm also a strong supporter of separate men's and women's competitions, and I'm part of your gang, what do you think?"

The girls laughed and scolded together, and Li Ling giggled: "Giggles! You are such a big person and you are not ashamed, and you still have to mix into our fat powder pile, I really don't know how to write the words shameful! ”

Lu Guangtu was about to argue strongly, and Yuan Zitong said with a smile: "Of course, the proposal of the ladies must be respected, although I have to pay more money to admit it." Hehe! In this way, the men and women compete separately, and each winner is selected. However, both men and women can participate in the judgment to show fairness, I wonder if the ladies are still satisfied? ”

The women cheered together.

Chen Shouzhong said: "You should pay attention to the premise of ensuring that you can receive the prize is to abide by the time, each of us has a pair of feet and a half of rice paper in front of us, the pen and ink are flawless, starting from the burning of this pillar of incense, after the burn is the end of time, and those who do not finish writing can only be counted as abstention." ”

Only then did everyone see a colorful small copper tripod in the middle of the cabin, and there was a slender incense stick with a length of five inches in the copper tripod, which was not even the length of a palm. It seems that such a short and thin incense stick can't burn a cup of tea at all, and time is indeed a bit tight.

Li Ling was about to argue, but Yuan Zitong said with a smile: "You are either talented or talented women, and you will never argue about the length of the incense." Hehe! I think it is necessary to show the reward that Mrs. Zhong mentioned just now to motivate you to be enterprising. Hehe! Take it in! ”

Several servants of the Yuan family came up with a few things. Yuan Zitong smiled and stepped forward to pick up one of the simple-looking scrolls, and raised his head: "This is the Han Gan horse herding map of the former Tang Dynasty, I won't show it here, you should enjoy it carefully later." It should be noted that I have entrusted it to the world's famous experts to appraise it, and there is no doubt that it is genuine. ”

"I don't dare to say that this picture is worth thousands of gold, but there are always hundreds of gold. I took it as a reward for winning the first place today, and I don't think I will be dishonored by today's championship. ”

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and Li Yi couldn't help but be very interested. You must know that Han Gan's horse, not only in the world of praise, in the later generations is even more famous, it is said that thousands of years later in the Taipei National Palace Museum, for the Taipei Palace Museum one of the treasures.

It is said that Han Gan was just a hotel guy earlier, once went to Wang Wei's house to ask for wine money, because Wang Wei was not at home and had to wait in the yard, he was very bored and painted with wood on the ground, and happened to be touched by Wang Wei who went home, and found that he had a high talent for painting, so he paid to recommend him to the great painter Cao Ba to learn painting, and he has become a famous painter of horses in the United States in a few years.

Han Gan's painting of horses focuses on realism, so his paintings of horses are light and elegant, and the horses are extraordinary, and there is no one who can match them in the following millennium. Even Zhao Ji of Song Huizong was very fascinated by this picture of Han Gan herding horses, and deliberately inscribed on the painting 'Han Gan's real handwriting, Zihai imperial pen', and treasured it in the palace to enjoy it at any time. Of course, there was no inscription of Song Huizong at this time, but it can also be seen from this how precious the value of this painting is.

Thinking of this, even Li Yi was a little itchy.

Yuan Zitong casually picked up a pair of scrolls in the shape of Qingqi and said: "This is the 'Wenfu' post of the former Tang Dynasty minister Lu Cambodia, although I dare not say that it is famous in the world, but it can be regarded as a rare surviving boutique in the world." Let's take it as a reward for winning second place, and we will surely know how precious it is in the future. ”

Yuan Zitong put down the scroll, held a dark green wooden box with both hands, and said with a smile: "This is a Duan inkstone known as the 'Immortal Cave', which I got from the Rotten Keshan Mountain of Duanzhou Antelope Gorge at a high price, and it is also a rare boutique, although it is only a reward for winning the third place, its value is also immeasurable!" ”

When Yuan Zitong said this, Li Ling was already a little impatient, and interrupted Yuan Zitong's words and said: "Listening to what you say, it is worth a thousand gold and a hundred gold, and we women are not interested." These are all prizes for men, but what are the prizes for us women? ”

Yuan Zitong said with a smile: "Mrs. Wang, don't be impatient, hehe!" Set prizes for women, of course, and vote for what they like. After thinking about it, fortunately, there are still some rare stocks at home, which I will dedicate to the beautiful ladies. ”

"Oh! Is this number one? You can get a piece of high-grade Su embroidered brocade, the second place, you can get a set of Shangpin makeup products from Zhenghe Beauty Workshop, and the third place is a stalk of crystal flawless white jade Ruyi, I don't know if the ladies are still satisfied? ”

Seeing that these women all showed yearning expressions, Yuan Zitong smiled and said: "If there is no objection, our game will start immediately, Brother Shou, burn incense!" ”
