533 Chapter 84-Xu CI’s old poetry skills!

“I held hands with Lin ‘an twice today. The first time was to teach her how to play chess, and the second time was to pull her when we were on the boat in the back pool. The experiment proved that as long as I didn’t take advantage of her too openly, she could accept physical contact with me appropriately.

“Calm down, calm down. Right now, love is like a horse carriage. Lin ‘an is inside, and I’m outside. In the near future, love will be like a bed. Lin ‘an will be under me, and I will be inside her. ”

Soon, the night watchman’s Yamen was in sight.

“Eldest brother, eldest brother …”

At this moment, a familiar shout came from the entrance of the Yamen.

Xu Qi ‘an’s face stiffened. He looked toward the voice and saw that it was the son of old Zhang.

“How many times have I told you to call me young master when we are outside?” Xu Qi ‘an criticized him angrily, then asked, ”

“What are you doing at the Yamen?”

“A young lady came to the residence and said that she is looking for you. I asked her what her relationship with you was, but she didn’t say anything. He just insisted that he was looking for you. Madam asked me to come and call you back to the residence.”

The servants from the outer city still maintained their old habits of calling him Da Lang and Xu Xin er lang. This reminded Xu Qi ‘an of his previous life. He was already an adult, but his parents still called him by his nickname. It was especially embarrassing, especially in the presence of outsiders.

“A young lady came to the residence and said that she is looking for you. I asked her what her relationship with you was, but she didn’t say anything. He just insisted that he was looking for you. Madam asked me to come and call you back to the residence.” The son of old Zhang explained,

“But the guards of the Yamen didn’t let me in. They also said that you weren’t at the Yamen since you hadn’t called for your attendance today. So, I could only wait at the door.”

A lady?

Xu Qi ‘an looked back at the fish in his fish pond and first ruled out li Caiwei. She was an old customer of the Xu family and would come over to play every few days.

It was also impossible for her to visit Fu Xiang. She would not visit her for no reason. Moreover, her aunt knew Fu Xiang. At that time, love was like a coffin. Xu bailing was inside, while Fu Xiang’s creditor was outside.

Could it be Zhong Li …? “What are the characteristics of the girl’s appearance?” Xu Qian asked.

……………

In a restaurant in the inner city, Yun Lu Academy’s student, Zhu tuizhi, was currently drinking with his classmates and friends.

Other than the students from Yun Lu Academy, there were also a few students from the Directorate.

Even though Yun Lu Academy and the Directorate had a conflict of orthodoxy, and there was indeed hostility and contempt between the students of both sides, it was only limited to this.

There was no such thing as an irresolvable conflict. After all, the battle for orthodoxy was too far away for ordinary students. Most students didn’t even have the chance to be officials. Or perhaps, he could only be a small official.

If one party took the initiative to befriend and curry favor with him, then it was still very easy to sit together and drink and chat.

Zhu tuizhi’s mood had been extremely bad recently. He had failed the spring examination.

To the proud and arrogant Zhu tuizhi, this was undoubtedly a huge blow. Especially his long-time rival, Xu cijiu, who was studying in ” Huiyuan “.

The gap between the two of them was even more obvious.

After the results of the spring examination were released, he and his classmates spent their days in brothels, teaching workshops, and restaurants, drowning their sorrows in wine.

“When did he have such a talent in poetry?”

This question had been bothering Zhu tuizhi for a long time. As his classmate and competitor, how could he not know Xu cijiu’s worth?

Strategy and Scripture could indeed be said to be first-class, but his poetry was mediocre. Zhu tuizhi was confident that in terms of poetry, ten Xu cijus could not compare to him.

“Who would have thought that this year’s spring Hunt’s Huiyuan would actually be snatched away by your Yun Lu Academy’s Xu cijiu.”

A Directorate student sighed with emotion, “”This is a great humiliation to our Directorate. If it was in the past, we would have turned the world upside down.

“But, if it’s Xu cijiu, then everyone will be convinced.”

Another Directorate student shook his head and recited, “”The road is difficult, the road is difficult, there are many roads, how are you now? There would be times when the wind broke through the waves, and the sails of the clouds would reach the sea.

“Every time I reminisce about this poem, it makes my heart surge with lofty sentiments, and any difficulties and obstacles are nothing. Hahaha, let’s drink.”

The students of Yun Lu Academy revealed proud smiles. Xu CI’s old high school,’Huiyuan’, as students of Yun Lu Academy, they felt extremely proud.

Only Zhu tuizhi remained silent, drinking his wine.

At this moment, a young student from the Directorate who had not spoken glanced at Zhu tuizhi and laughed, “”Brother Zhu, you don’t seem to be too happy?”

Zhu tuizhi glanced at him. This person’s surname was Liu, and his full name was Yi. He was very good at socializing and didn’t speak ill of the students of Yun Lu Academy just because he was a student of the Imperial College.

He had a wide network of connections among the young students in the capital. This person, like him, had failed the spring examination.

Zhu tuizhi didn’t answer, waved his hand, and continued to drink.

Liu Da didn’t mind and was determined to pull Zhu tuizhi into the conversation. She asked, “”Xu Huiyuan is such a talented poet, but why is he so ordinary? I’ve never heard of him before.

“Even if he’s a genius, to be able to come across such a masterpiece, his own attainments in poetry can’t be too low. But I’ve never heard of a Xu cijiu in the poetry world of the capital.”

Zhu tuizhi sneered and drank the wine in his cup in one gulp. He said with a disdainful expression, “”Don’t tell me you haven’t heard of it. Even I, a student of Yun Lu Academy, have never heard of it.”

As soon as he said this, the Directorate’s students were interested and immediately looked over.

Liu Yun squinted her eyes, her tone unchanged as she asked casually, “”Brother Zhu, what do you mean?”
