Space takes me to ancient times

Chapter 31
Wen Huan was so anxious that he didn't even have time to sit in the official sedan chair, so he followed Master Lin to Chunyi Building in a hurry.

"The magistrate is here..." Someone in the crowd yelled, and the onlookers quickly dispersed to both sides.

"Xiaomin, I have met the elder." The shopkeeper rushed out to greet him.

"Shopkeeper Liu, please tell me, who is the match against Qin Guo?" Wen Huan looked around anxiously.

Shopkeeper Liu turned his head sideways to look back, his eyes just fell on the table of Qu You and his daughter.

"It's Mr. Qu." There was a hint of admiration in the words.

Wen Huan followed Shopkeeper Liu's gaze and looked from a distance. In the packed Chunyi Building, there was only a man with a baby girl sitting at the empty table in the middle. They sat there alone. Somewhat abrupt.

Without any hesitation, he immediately walked over.

"If you dare to ask, this is Mr. Qu."

Qu Dongsheng watched the magistrate walking towards him step by step, he didn't know where to put his nervous hands and feet.It was Qu You who kicked him lightly with his foot, and only then did he react.

He got up quickly, "Caomin, Qu Dongsheng has met the elder."

Because he didn't pass the exam for fame, what Qu Dongsheng insisted on was only scholarly ceremony.

Wen Huan stretched out his hand to help.

"Mr. Qu is free of courtesy. I heard Master Lin say that the pair of Qin Guo is the pair that came out of the second couplet. It is the greatness of the gentleman that I admire."

Wen Huan praised Qu Dongsheng when he came up, which made Qu Dongsheng relax a lot from his nervous mood.

"Your Excellency, it's just a fluke."

"Hey~Mr. Qu, don't be modest, and the other officials don't say much. Shopkeeper Liu, present your pen and ink to Mr. Wen Huan waved to Qu Dongsheng. He always doesn't ask about the process but only about the result when doing things.

As soon as the county magistrate finished speaking, shopkeeper Liu hurriedly led someone to clean up the table and spread the ink.

Qu Dongsheng stood in front of the table and thought about it carefully. When shopkeeper Liu sent someone to find the magistrate, his daughter had already quietly told him the answer. Now he just needs to write it down and it's done.

He rubbed his sweaty palms, took a deep breath, and wrote with a pen.

Shanglian: Scholar and scholar asked Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr.

The next couplet is: step fast, step fast, chase horse fast, horse fast, horse fast.

The first couplet: the hook is old, the hook is exam, the old exam is for the children, and the children are for the old.

The second couplet is right: one person is big, two people are heaven, heaven is greater than human affection, and human affection is greater than heaven.

Shanglian: Wangjiang Tower, Wangjiang Flow, Wangjiang Tower Downstairs, River Flow, River Tower through the ages, River Flow through the ages.

The second couplet is paired: washing inkstones, washing inkstones, washing inkstones in the inkstone washing pool, inkstone left fragrance, inkstone left fragrance.

It was very quiet in Chunyi Building, and everyone was hoping that Qu Dongsheng's answer could defeat Qin.County magistrate Wen walked slowly to the table and watched from the side.Every time Qu Dongsheng wrote a second couplet, he would applaud in his heart.Until Qu Dongsheng finished writing, County Magistrate Wen's mood could hardly be expressed in words.

"Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful..."

He read each couplet carefully, and the more he read, the more excited he became, and the more he read, the more enjoyable he became.

"Mister's literary talents are admired by me."

"My lord is too serious." Qu Dongsheng cupped his hands modestly.The answer was told by his daughter, and he had nothing to be proud of.

"Come here... send the answer to the post station to the students of the state of Qin, and let them see the literary talent of the people of Chu state." County magistrate Wen instantly revived on the spot, and he waved his hand, infinitely heroic.
