Da Song Private Investigator

Chapter 413 Maple Forest View.

Time passed quickly, and autumn was already strong in a blink of an eye.

And that evening, Bao Zheng and Hua Lang received a letter from Tang Wanli, saying that the inkstone competition will be held tomorrow.

Wen Meng and Hua Wan'er were very happy when they heard the news, so they hurriedly inquired about the venue of the competition. Hua Lang handed them the letter and said, "It's still the place where they competed last year, Maple Leaf Forest."

The maple leaves in autumn are the most beautiful scenery. Even if the two women Wen Meng and Hua Wan'er don't have the feelings of poets, they still yearn for the maple leaf forest.

So the two of them were excited all night.

Early this morning, after Hua Lang, Bao Zheng and the others dressed up, they went straight to Maple Leaf Forest.

The maple leaf forest is in the east of Duanzhou City. The maple leaf forest is artificially planted. Every year in late autumn, you can see a piece of red from a distance. Because the inkstone is the four treasures of the study, it is something close to the literati, so the annual inkstone competition , They always look for a poetic place to compete.

The Maple Leaf Forest is very big. When Hwarang and Bao Zheng approached it, they looked like a ball of fire, but there was no heat or irritability of the fire. Looking at the balls of red, I felt pleasing to the eye. .

After walking inside, the maple leaves are scattered with the wind, and the falling flowers are colorful.

In the middle of the maple forest, there is an open space, surrounded by tables and chairs, these tables and chairs form a circle, and in the center of this circle, there is a round square table, if that person has a good inkstone, he can use the inkstone Put it on a square table for people to appreciate and comment. Of course, if someone wants to buy it, they can also bid on the spot.

Bao Zheng and Hua Lang were the first to come. When they came, there were not many people here, only Tang Wanli and some regular customers came. Of course, the people who arranged the scene also came.

When Tang Wanli saw Bao Zheng and Hua Lang, he hurriedly went up to him and said, "Master Bao and Mr. Hua really gave us a lot of face for this inkstone competition. On behalf of the inkstone shop in Duanzhou City, I would like to express my thanks to you all."

Bao Zheng said some polite words, and then sat down on the seat that Tang Wanli had prepared for them. Hualang looked around, but found no one interested, and then sat down with Bao Zheng .

After they came, they realized that waiting for others was a very ruthless thing, and the maple leaves around them fell on their shoulders from time to time.

Two women, Wen Meng and Hua Wan'er, ran around, collecting the maple leaves they liked, like two children who haven't grown up yet, Hua Lang looked at them and couldn't help laughing.

If a person has not lost her virginity, she must be lovely.

After about an hour, the guests invited by Tang Wanli, as well as those who came here to present treasures, or those who were waiting for a price, came one after another. Bao Zheng and Hua Lang looked at these people all over, In the end, he saw people from the Lin family.

A lot of people from the Lin Mansion came today, as if they wanted to let the people in Duanzhou's Yantai circle know that their Lin Mansion hadn't declined yet.

Lin Shouye was followed by Lin Kaikai and Lin Ruoyun, and Lin Ruoyun was next to Lin Xian'er. At this time, Lin Xian'er had gotten rid of the unhappiness of the previous period, and she seemed to have a new life.

The fact that all the troops of the Lin family were mobilized this time seemed to mean that they were bound to win. Tang Wanli saw them and felt no displeasure, not only was he not displeased, he even came forward to greet them.

"I, Tang Wanli, are extremely grateful for the people from Moyanzhai to come!"

Lin Shouye smiled lightly and said, "The inkstone competition in Duanzhou City, my Moyanzhai is the largest inkstone shop in Duanzhou City, how can I not come?"

Tang Wanli repeatedly apologized, and looked sideways at Lin Xian'er, but Lin Xian'er still didn't seem to care about him at this time, and she still didn't care much about Tang Wanli.

After Hwarang saw this situation, he had some thoughts. If a person doesn't love someone, he probably won't love someone he didn't love before because the one he loved is gone, right?

A woman's heart has always been like this, and no man's heart is fickle.

After everyone arrived, everyone was not in a hurry to take out their treasures, but first had a literary battle. On the square table in the center of the circle was the Four Treasures of the Study, and an old man stood beside him. It is very famous. If the literati later has a good word, he can write it there, and then the old man will read it out, and then everyone will comment. If the word is well written, it will even let the brothel Artistes composed music and sang on the spot. Under today's circumstances, whoever's words are lucky enough to be played and sung will surely become a good story in Duanzhou City.

For this reason, those talented scholars in Duanzhou City have such an opportunity in the middle of a year, so on this day, the tributes are more crazy and lively than the treasure offerings, and if it is not because of this event of literati It is impossible for this inkstone competition to be so lively.

On the west side of the open space, most of the people sitting were literati. At this time, these literati were full of ambition and wanted to show off their strengths, and sing out the good words that they had been thinking about for days.

Others were also very excited, wanting to see today's event and the demeanor of Duanzhou literati.

Bao Zheng and Hua Lang were sitting and chatting here, Bao Zheng looked at Hua Lang and joked: "Brother Hua is very knowledgeable about words, today's grand gathering of literati, you should perform well, right?"

Hualang waved his hands again and again, and said: "I think it's better to forget it. Today's grand meeting belongs to those literati in Duanzhou. If I'm a detective to write a speech, I will inevitably be said to steal their limelight."

What Hua Lang said was not modest at all, after Bao Zheng heard it, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Don't steal the limelight, don't steal the limelight!"

While the two were talking, Wen Meng and Hua Wan'er suddenly ran over and asked with a smile, "Aren't you trying to grab the limelight?"

Bao Zheng wanted to make fun of Hualang, and quickly said: "Of course I don't want to steal the limelight from those literati!"

Wen Meng asked again: "Who wants to steal the limelight from those literati?"

Bao Zheng squinted at Hua Lang, and said, "Of course it's your playboy!"

Wen Meng was not ashamed, and continued to ask: "If you can write a good word, why don't you grab it?"

Hua Wan'er quickly followed suit: "That's right, that's right, I just need to let those self-righteous literati see what big brother is capable of."

When these people said this, Hwarang felt very embarrassed, and quickly asked: "They are self-righteous, I think it's better for Hugh to find trouble."

Just as he was talking, the old man in the middle looked at everyone and said: "Wenbi starts now, and scholars and literati in Duanzhou City can come to show their literary talents. The theme we are going to write today is autumn. As long as it is related to autumn, everyone will be happy." Yes, who will come first?"
