I am an anchor in the Three Kingdoms

One sound resounded louder than the other.

Yang Xiu indirectly suggested that it is the wish of all scholars to let Cao Zhi and Cao Xiong compete in talent and learning, but also to shirk.

In fact, no scholar would think of this at all. Even if he thought of it, wouldn't it make Wu Gongzi hate him if he brought it up?

But now, Yang Xiu was the first to bring it up.

The scholars were all in high spirits, scrambling to respond without saying anything else.

Just to see the demeanor of the two facing each other, the trip is worthwhile.

This is a testament to the confrontation between Cao Xiong, a new literary master, and Cao Zhi, a talented scholar who has always been famous in the north for his poems.

The scholars all stared wide-eyed, waiting for Cao Xiong's answer, their eyes full of anticipation.

"Since everyone wants to see it, let's compete! Fourth brother, how do you see it?"

Cao Xiong readily agreed.

Because it was Yang Xiu's suggestion, Cao Xiong asked Cao Zhi back.

Unexpectedly, no one responded to his question at all.

Of course, this is not to blame the fourth son Cao Zhi.

At this time, all his attention was already on Zhen Mi.

nice!

It is beautiful!

Fresh beauty!

Refreshing beauty!

The beauty of poetic temperament!

This is the second time that the fourth son Cao Zhi saw Zhen Mi, the first time was at Cao Pi's wedding with her.

That day was the first day of love for 15-year-old Cao Zhi.

On that day, the sprout of love in Cao Zhi's heart quietly rose...

From that day on, Cao Zhi would search for every maidservant Cao Zhi came into contact with to see if there was a trace of Zhen Mi in her.

On that day, he burst into tears, regretting that he had not been able to break into the general's mansion before his second brother.

Unexpectedly, the hasty glances that day were the only time in more than a year that he saw the face of the goddess in his heart.

Zhen Mi's talent and learning, Zhen Mi's articles, the young Cao Zhi got it by chance, and he couldn't put it down!

Even, between the lines of Zhen Mi's words, Cao Zhi felt the resonance with his soul.

This time I saw Zhen Mi again.

Cao Zhi only felt waves in his heart...everything else has long been forgotten.

Prince?Fame and fortune?world?

What is the importance of these things that the world is fighting for?

Chapter 354 Keep Staring at Me

what!

Yang Xiu was taken aback.

The fifth son asked Cao Zhi back.

He didn't answer a word, and didn't move.

What's happening here?

I got information yesterday that Cao Xiong is going to attend a poetry meeting held by Cai Wenji.

Both Cao Zhi and Yang Xiu realized that this might be their only chance to turn things around.

In the process of competing for the son in the past, Cao Zhi took the lead because of the support of the civil servants of the Manchu Dynasty and a group of scholars.

Now the subordinate civil servants have suffered heavy losses under the attack of Cao Xiong.

The only ones who can be relied on are scholars, as long as they can defeat the fifth son Cao Xiong in the poetry meeting.

Most of the hearts of scholars lost in the Douwen Conference can be returned.

This is Cao Zhi's only chance left.

Unexpectedly, now, Cao Xiong agreed.

Instead, it was the fourth son, Cao Zhi, who stayed there, as if he had been captivated by something.

"Fourth Young Master... Fourth Young Master!"

Yang Xiu violently pushed Cao Zhi beside him.

what……

Cao Zhi came back to his senses.

I thought it was Zhen Mi's fault.

Hurriedly lowering her head, she felt that it was too unreasonable for her eyes to stare at the goddess in her heart.

Can't help but secretly blame myself!

"Fourth Young Master, Fifth Young Master has agreed to accept your challenge of fighting Wen..."

Cao Zhi's "Oh", seemed relieved, but a little bit lost...

...So, it turns out that it wasn't the goddess who punished me!

Seeing that Cao Zhi's behavior was very unusual, Cao Xiong also asked suspiciously:

"Fourth brother, are you comparing or not?"

…Compare?

... no more than?

Does it matter?

Cao Zhi couldn't help but glance at Zhen Mi behind Cao Xiong.

Out of his mouth, he asked in a strange way: "You...what do you say?"

Zhen Mi was taken aback!

Obviously, she noticed that Cao Zhi's eyes were looking at her.

Can?What does this have to do with her?

Cao Xiong thought that the fourth son Cao Zhi was asking him.

He replied: "What do you want me to say? Since the fourth brother and Mr. Yang have worked so hard, let's compare it? But it's always one-on-one, which is quite boring. How about we two-on-two this time?"

What Cao Xiong said was actually to get Zhen Mi involved.

After all, the purpose of this poetry meeting is to make the second sister-in-law happy.

Since she derives the greatest pleasure from poetry and composing, invite her to join in.

If you watch from the sidelines and let Cao Xiong and Cao Zhi fight, you will inevitably feel itchy and unbearable. You can't let go of the talent in your heart, and you can't hold back your illness.

Yang Xiu didn't expect Cao Xiong's partner to be Zhen Mi.

He also thought that the fifth son Cao Xiong wanted to invite the talented girl Cai Wenji.

Immediately sarcasm: "The fifth son wants to invite Mrs. Cai Wenji, our 'female dean' in the literary world? With you, a male dean, with two swords, you will be invincible in the world?"

The implication is that even Prime Minister Cao is ashamed of Cai Wenji's literary talents. You, Cao Xiong, chose her as your partner for the purpose of hugging your thighs?

Even if he wins, he won't win by force!

Who knows, Cao Xiong grinned.

"Who said I'm going to invite Sister Wenji out of the mountain? To deal with you, the two of us are enough."

While speaking, Cao Xiong took a step sideways.

Zhen Mi, who was originally sideways, appeared in front of Cao Zhi and Yang Xiu.

Yang Xiu didn't know Zhen Mi, but she was one of Cao Xiong's servant girls.

Now readily agree.

"Okay, then the fourth son and I will ask the two of you for advice. Fourth son...fourth son..."

Suddenly called Cao Zhi twice, only to find that Cao Zhi was standing there again.

A bad premonition floated in Yang Xiu's heart.

What's wrong with the fourth son today?

It turned out that Cao Zhi couldn't control his eyes at all, and couldn't help looking at Zhen Mi.

Zhen Mi was swept by the continuous gaze.

It was also uncomfortable for a while, and he murmured.

"Fourth son, why do you keep staring at me?"

Chapter 355 Taking Zhen Mi as the topic

Cao Zhiyou was in a daze.

Yang Xiu was very anxious, and hurriedly slapped him again.

call!

Cao Zhi shuddered and came back to his senses.

Yang Xiu whispered in his ear:

"Fourth son, this is our last chance, don't be in a daze!"

"Ah good!"

Cao Zhi tried to restrain his mind.

However, with Zhen Mi in front of him, his mind has long been out of control, how can he control it freely?

Yang Xiu let out an "ah", and said in his heart: "It seems that we need to buy some time for Fourth Young Master, so that he can cheer up."

Now, take a step forward.

"In the first round, let me ask you about the talents of the Fifth Young Master?"

Yang Xiu pointed out his name and surname, and wanted to confront the fifth son.

In fact, the principle of Tian Ji's horse racing is implied. Even if he loses to Cao Xiong by a small margin, in the second round, the fourth son Cao Zhi is only facing a woman, and he will definitely win in a crushing manner.

On the whole, the two of them are slightly better.

Cao Xiong looked back at Zhen Mi.

"I'll come first?"

Zhen Mi nodded, "Let my sister-in-law see the talent of my little uncle!"

Cao Xiong smiled slightly and took a step forward.

"Master Yang, tell me what to compare?"

Yang Xiu raised his eyebrows and pondered for a moment.

"For the first round, let's let the fifth son talk about the topic. I'll just accompany you!"
