Zhumen Hangui

Chapter 242 Meng Lingxi

It turns out that this inn occupies a large area. The backyard is not only one yard, but is divided into several small yards, similar to the separate boxes in the previous life.

Turning the corner from the corridor, Su Yizhao saw a pavilion in front of him, and there were already many people sitting in it.

Su Yizhao only felt that there was a lot of noise behind her, and when she turned her head, she saw that everyone behind her was following her step by step, and couldn't help crying and laughing.

These people cared much more than her client.

However, her gaze immediately fell on the few people seated in the gazebo. They were all elderly people with a strong bookish look, and they might be famous Confucianists.

"Hey! This Meng Lingxi is really well-prepared! He even invited these people over?"

Su Yijue's voice rang in Su Yizhao's ear, causing Su Yizhao to look at him immediately.

Seeing the confusion in Su Yizhao's eyes, Su Yijue introduced: "The man wearing the indigo long jacket is named Lu Zhongbo, and he is a very famous calligrapher in this dynasty. I have practiced his calligraphy before, and it has been spread for a long time. wide."

Su Yizhao is a little strange, is there a calligraphy competition today?

"But don't think that he is only good at calligraphy. In fact, he is also very proficient in poetry and poetry."

Su Yizhao nodded, and then took a look at this person.Knowing the fate of the age, very kind.

"The one on the right, named Lu Chengtao, is from Beiyuan Mansion. He has a great reputation and is preparing for the next year's general examination. He is very knowledgeable. He was No. 20 in the previous provincial examination."

Su Yijue said in a low voice, Su Yizhao's complexion remained the same, but Su Yiliang, who was walking not far behind the two, changed his complexion.

He also heard Su Yijue's introduction, and it seemed that Meng Lingxi had made up his mind to use the Su family as a stepping stone.

"As for the one in the middle, the origin is a little bit older. This person is the Imperial College Jijiu, Mr. Wen Jijiewen, who has just become an official."

Su Yizhao was a little surprised, why even the officials who had already retired from the imperial court were invited?What exactly is Meng Lingxi going to do?
"The background is not small!" Su Yizhao could only whisper.

"It's a bit unexpected this time, you have to be careful." Su Yijue suddenly said seriously.

Su Yizhao snorted coldly, it was a joke.

Maybe Su Yijue was building up momentum for her before, but the current situation should not be under Su Yijue's control.

Meng Lingxi's side must have played a role in promoting this matter, otherwise these people would not be invited to judge.

Su Yiliang frowned tightly. At this point, Su Yizhao was pushed to the forefront.

If you lose, it will be the reputation of the Meng family.This is to announce to the world that their Meng family is about to rise.

In this competition, Su Yizhao and Su Shi will become the opponent's first stepping stone.

Su Yizhao, this time I'm afraid I'm going to have a hard time riding a tiger.

Since the other party can invite so many great scholars to come to the evaluation, it can be seen that he has great confidence in his own knowledge!
Su Yijue introduced the other two to Su Yizhao, both of whom were well-known.

"Here? The one sitting with his back to us is Meng Lingxi who invited you to compete."

Su Yizhao followed Su Yijue's voice and looked at the past. The man was facing her back and couldn't see his face clearly.

However, he is quite tall, and judging by his demeanor, he is a gentleman.

It's a pity that this kind of style makes people unhappy, and the utilitarianism is too strong.

She had heard from Su Yijue before that this person was only 17 years old, and he was still a young man.

It has nothing to do with Su Yizhao to want the Meng family to rise again.But if you want to step on her to become famous, then she will not like it.

In this fight, she will never take it lightly.

Su Yizhao and his group arrived in the gazebo soon, and the young man with his back to them turned his head quickly when he heard footsteps.

His eyes first fell on Su Yizhao. Although he had never seen Su Yizhao, his intuition told him that the person in front of him was.

"Master Meng!" Su Yijue saluted with a slight smile on his face.

Su Yizhao also bowed, and then looked at the boy in front of him.

She originally thought that this son should be a man of sophistication and good at calculating, but she didn't want to see him with a plain face, clear eyes, and a calm and breezy look.

But no matter what, Su Yizhao's first impression of him is what he guessed before, and it's hard to change.

"Fifth Young Master Su! Young Master Six, Young Master Seven!" Meng Lingxi first saluted the three of them, and then set his sights on Su Yizhao.

He had heard a lot of rumors about Su Yizhao during this time.Among them, it was rumored that Su Yizhao was a child prodigy, and there was another rumor that Su Yizhao was the reincarnation of Luoshen. Anyway, he had both talent and appearance.

When I saw her today, regardless of her talents and learning, this appearance was not exaggerated at all.

Especially Su Yizhao just smiled slightly at this moment, and didn't say much, looking very cold and noble.

"Master Wen, it's really a surprise to see you here." When the three of them were led to the others, Su Yijue took the lead in saluting.

"It's the five boys of the Su family. The old man heard that there will be a literary competition today, so he came to watch. I didn't expect that it was you, the children of the Su family, who were going to compete."

He waved his hands again and said: "The old man has retired now, you can call me Wen Shibo."

Unexpectedly, Su Yijue and Mr. Wen are still acquainted, Su Yizhao thought in his heart, the two are definitely not as simple as meeting each other.

Su Yizhao and Su Yiliang also hurried forward to salute, saying: "Students pay homage to Mr. Wen!"

"You don't need to be too polite! You and the fifth boy can call me Wen Shibo together."

Wen Jijie looked at Su Yizhao as he spoke, "Are you Su Yizhao who is going to participate in the Wendou this time?"

Su Yizhao took a step forward and replied, "It's the student!"

"Mr. Meng has often struggled with humanities these days, and has made rapid progress. I heard that you have always been at the top of the monthly and quarterly rankings in Fengtian Academy. Both of you are the proud sons of heaven. I am here to be a witness this time. It’s good to see the demeanor of a child prodigy.”

Su Yizhao immediately said shyly: "It's not always at the top of the list, Wen Shibo praised me a lot. It's my honor to be witnessed by you. If I can get your advice again, this junior will definitely benefit a lot."

Wen Jijie was a little surprised when he heard the words. He didn't expect the child to speak impeccably at such a young age, and his attitude was quite humble. He couldn't help but look up.

Su Yizhao and the others then greeted each other and sat down.

"Xiaosheng apologizes to Mr. Su Qi first!" Only now did Meng Lingxi have the opportunity to speak to Su Yizhao alone.

"Originally, the seventh son was about to end. I was afraid that he was studying hard at the mansion. Xiaosheng disturbed the son's purity because of his own selfishness. It was Xiaosheng's fault."

Meng Lingxi's attitude was very sincere, and he even made a big gift.

Do you still know that you disturb my cleanliness?Su Yizhao snorted coldly in his heart, but on the surface he couldn't be like this.

She immediately stood up and returned the salute, and then said: "Mr. Meng is serious. It is a mutual exchange between literati, which is of great benefit to you and me. My teacher often says that it is not good to work behind closed doors. This time, I happened to be discussing knowledge with Mr. Meng. get something."
