It's okay, he listens to you, you talk to him, and there are some things that can make people ignore our improvement in strength, at least at this stage. Cheng Gong waved his hand, in fact, these are secondary reasons, and the key problem is that he is very optimistic about the tiger. Although this kid is a little impulsive, reckless, and desperate when it comes to his brother's affairs, there is absolutely nothing to say about the essence and talent.

The earliest drunken cat pressed the Seven Princes when he was a child for a short period of time, the tiger's favorite thing was to learn literature, and the Lei family was also happy for their brother's literature and martial arts, and then the drunk cat couldn't practice because of physical reasons, and the tiger began to cultivate. It is precisely for this reason that his achievements in calligraphy have been ranked among the four great talents for two consecutive years.

The drunken cat was still worried about what to say, Cheng Gong waved his hand and looked at the pervert and the fat man: "In the past few days, we should continue to play, we should continue to have fun, just wait for the four talents competition to start, and then Dashao will take you to sweep everything......"

The boat was huge, and the drunken cat then led the tiger to the next floor to rest. Although Cheng Gong had inspected the scene at that time, there was no evidence left there, and he believed that even if someone knew that there was a fight there, it would be difficult to contact Du Qian and them, unless the Seventh Prince's side could not contact Du Qian for a certain period of time, and the emperor's side could not contact him, and the two sides would only be connected to this matter when they sent someone to contact them again to thoroughly investigate this matter.

Even if he knew that this would be the case, Cheng Gong was still fully prepared at this moment, and the remaining two days were still having fun, this time he spent tens of millions of taels of silver to celebrate in one fell swoop, even if the emperor then sent someone to reward the three armies, but no one felt the slightest feeling. The reward given by Emperor Xi is not as much as a fraction of what Dashao gives. The grade of the wine given was far worse than that bought by Da Shao, and the major general chartered all the brothels in Yunge City to make the brothers happy, and the emperor didn't even give a beautiful woman.

It is said that on the night after the three armies were treated, the emperor was very angry, and several eunuchs and palace maids were directly killed with a rod because they knocked over things.

On winter mornings, the sun has risen, but the weather is still bitterly cold. There were white snowflakes floating in the sky, and it had been falling for several hours, and the ground was covered with thick snow.

In previous years, the four major talent competitions were held in the autumn, but this year it was postponed due to special reasons, and today it was a coincidence that it began to snow in the middle of the night.

"Brother Li, get up early, look at Li Fu, this complexion is well prepared this year, you must want to hit the top 20. ”

Brother Shangguan laughed. Last year, you almost fought Zhou Yifan. ”

"In fact, if I had concentrated on challenging chess skills at that time, I might have been able to compete with that Cheng Lan, but Zhou Yifan was the head of the four talents, so I had to compare with him. ”

"Brother Shangguan really has courage, then we might as well go together. ”

As soon as the city gate was opened, two young and handsome young men had already arrived on horseback, and each of them was followed by several subordinates, obviously not ordinary children. The two laughed and urged the horses to leave, and a dozen more horses left the city together. The martial arts of the Blue Cloud Empire are prevalent, and even the literati are mostly riding horses, and only some civil officials and young ladies from large families will sit in a sedan chair.

"Head, what's going on today?" a recruit looked at the young and handsome people who had just opened the city gate, and as soon as they opened the city gate, many young and handsome people rode away, and seemed to be more and more numerous, and looked in amazement at an old drunkard who was secretly raising the kettle, but who was already full of alcohol early in the morning.

"Hmm" the old drunkard has been inexplicably promoted recently. It's just that he was going to secretly mōmō when he drank, and he shook his head a little dizzy when he heard the recruit ask him: "Do you know how the bear died? stupid, I don't even know such big news, today is the Four Treasures Building to hold the Four Talents Competition, and the competition is held in the Four Treasures Manor, fifty miles outside the city." This is just the beginning, and if you look at it for a while, there are at least hundreds of thousands of people who go to participate in the game and watch it, and it is very lively. ”

"Ah" The recruit was taken aback, hundreds of thousands, such an exaggeration.

But then he saw an endless stream of people, some on foot, some in a car, some in a sedan chair, and some on horseback, all of them happily chatting and rushing to the Sibao Manor outside the city. Because in Yunge City, it is very difficult to carry out this competition, the number of participants is large, and the number of people who bring more subordinates to watch is even more.

The Four Treasure Manor is huge, even if there are hundreds of thousands of people entering at the same time, it is no problem, and at this moment, thousands of people in the Four Treasure Manor are constantly busy. It is divided into four areas, each area can accommodate nearly 100,000 onlookers, and each area is divided into dozens of small areas.

In the center of these four areas, there is a platform nearly ten meters high, on which seats are placed every five meters, where you can overlook the whole field. These four seats are the seats reserved for the champions of qin, chess, calligraphy and painting last year, they don't need to play other games, they just need to wait for the winners of the four regions to come up and challenge them, they only need to compete one game.

The central platform of the four treasure buildings is very large and very high, and there is no one else on it except for the seats of the four talents, only the four seats around. On this tower you can clearly see the game below, but this tower is not ordinary people can go up, according to the grapevine rumors, the emperor is dressed in layers to watch from above, but no one can confirm that he has not been here.

At this moment, on the top floor of the pagoda where the piano is placed among the four pagodas of the Four Treasure Towers, Zhou Yifan is standing at the window looking at the flow of people who continue to enter the villa in the distance.

"I had a bad feeling. ”

"Bad premonition?" Next to Zhou Yifan stood Zhou Song, although Zhou Song at this moment was not as strong as a martial arts practitioner, but he was definitely not as old and weak as he was in the Jinsai Palace. Unless the longevity is exhausted and the limit is approaching, the ability to maintain health and nourish qi is not much worse than that of ordinary martial arts saints.

Zhou Song looked at the snowflakes falling outside, the outside of the manor was white, and it was white as far as the eye could see. The manor is brightly lit and unusually clean. The snow will be quickly cleared at any time, and although there are many people coming in, it is orderly. At this time of year, after Zhou Song and Zhou Yifan arranged everything, the two of them would stand here and watch the people who came in, chatting quietly for a while, Zhou Song had never heard Zhou Yifan say such things.

"Are you worried about Cheng Lan, who has been building momentum recently, and his influence has gradually become much weaker than yours?"

"Cheng Lan?" Zhou Yifan shook his head with a smile: "Although he has improved a lot compared to before,

But he was staring at me a year ago, and he now thinks that he is much worse than me a year ago, but he doesn't know how quickly I have improved this year. I know that he has something hidden in his skills, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and wants to make a splash. Find an opportunity to compete with me in this Four Talents Competition, become the number one talent in Yunge City in one fell swoop, and also build momentum for the upcoming big exam. Such a person is not afraid even if he is very strong, and now what I can't see through is the Cheng bow. ”

"Since Princess Ziyan designed to show off the strong princess, this Cheng Gong first killed Cheng Lan's minions, and then won tens of millions of taels of silver with one word, collected debts and moved the imperial capital, killed Ouyang Yulong,

was chased and killed by the horse gang and still lived, and swallowed Zheng Sanyuan's industry, and finally forced the emperor to kill Zheng Sanyuan, the old man, by five horses, and then took advantage of the situation to lead the troops to the battle. Luofu City led the troops of the Pingluo family, and then dared to lead an army of 100,000 to besiege the Luofu Sword Sect, and later tossed around on the grassland, and finally leveled the Ma Gang but did not see Ma Xun's body. After coming back, he made a big fuss about the Jinjian Palace, and then celebrated wildly. Counting what he has done during this time, none of them are losses, not to mention, every one of them is earth-shattering, if it is not that this Cheng Gong is hidden deeply, it is that there is a master behind him who is giving advice, because the Cheng family has changed a lot with Cheng Gong's methods of doing things and handling things, and Cheng Xiaotian and Cheng Feiyu have had unexpected performances one after another.

And this time Cheng Gong bet on himself to put so much money, everyone thought that he became a nouveau riche after copying Zheng Sanyuan, and he didn't know how to spend it if he had a lot of money, and everyone thought he was a boy who scattered wealth. Countless people bet on Cheng Gong to lose, but no matter how much they bet, they will always have the money to follow up, which also greatly stabs some people. If Cheng Gong really wins this time, he can really be called rich. ”

Seeing that the Four Talents Competition was about to start, Sun Er was able to be so calm and not get carried away by two successive victories, Zhou Song was very satisfied.

"Two years ago, you proposed a strategy to deal with the Cheng family, and grandpa knew that you had grown up, and grandpa fully supported you. But sometimes, there are many small changes and adjustments in a big goal, Cheng Lan is a member of the Cheng family, and Cheng Gong's successive conflicts with the emperor have finally made the emperor unbearable. A few days ago, the emperor looked for Prince Jing, and it seems that the Seventh Prince should have made achievements. As for this competition, it is just a form of prestige and influence established by our Zhou family, and to put it bluntly, it is a children's game. ”

Listening to his grandfather's reminder, Zhou Yifan's eyes immediately lit up, and then nodded: "Cheng Lan is very ambitious, his ambition is something that others can see, so it's easy to do." Just take advantage of this competition to see the situation, in the future, I will use their relationship as brothers to do some tricks, and at the same time, I will also find a way to make a conflict between Cheng Gong and the Seven Princes, and then we only need to push Bō to help the Lan, because the emperor must also hope that the Seven Princes can rise up, and only in this way can the Cheng family be suppressed. As for Cheng Gong, whether he really has the ability or the fake ability, his chess piece is very useful. ”

Song stroked his beard lightly and nodded in satisfaction. ！。
