Zuixiang Pavilion!

The sound of strings sounded, and among the sound of strings, a dancing girl danced gracefully.

The maid carefully arranged by the county master danced gracefully.

The prefect Wang Mingyang sitting in the center did not pay attention to the singing and dancing.

He seems not interested in singing and dancing.

I am not interested in those dancing beauties either.

"Master Prefect, what are you worried about?"

Seemingly sensing Wang Mingyang's inner worries, the county magistrate asked.

“The country is peaceful and the people are safe!”

"Is this really true?" Wang Mingyang took a sip of wine, but his mind drifted a little far away.

Although it was the Lantern Festival, Wang Mingyang still couldn't let go of what was on his mind.

"Today's Emperor is a sage, and Prime Minister Zhang is the reincarnation of Zhuge Kongming!"

"The great prosperity of the dynasty conquered the whole world, and all the nations came to dynasty."

"This is a prosperous age, why should you be so worried?"

Naturally, the county magistrate didn't see so much. He happily watched the song and dance show in front of him.

The cheers of the people came from outside Zuixiang Pavilion.

The swimming dragon also comes from far and near, which is very lively.

"Master Prefect, the dragon is coming!"

"The time has almost come!" the county master said to the magistrate.

"Yeah!" Wang Mingyang nodded and said nothing more.

He came to Ruian County today because he was invited by the county magistrate of Ruian County.

Wang Mingyang's father had an old relationship with the county magistrate's father.

Wang Mingyang and the county prince were both Jinshi scholars, so it was difficult for Wang Mingyang to refuse the county prince's invitation.

Besides, during the New Year's Eve festival, there's nothing wrong with having fun with the people.

"That's fine!"

"Today is the New Year's Eve, let's put some things aside!"

Wang Mingyang stood up, waved his sleeves and said to the county master.

"The puzzle is already ready!"

"Let them try it!" the county master said to his master.

After hearing the county master's instructions, the master immediately took out the lantern with the riddles written on it.

Several lanterns were quickly hung up. The master looked at everyone and said: "Today is the Lantern Festival, the county master and the prefect are happy with the people!"

"These lanterns are lantern riddles created by the county magistrate and the prefect in their spare time a few days ago."

"I hope that a talented person can solve the riddle. Only a talented person can solve the lantern riddles created by the county master and the prefect."

"Then you can go upstairs and have a drink with the prefect and the county master."

As soon as the words fell, everyone who was already excited became even more excited.

"Isn't it difficult to solve the lantern riddle between the county master and the prefect?"

"That's of course. The county master and the prefect are both from the same place as Jinshi. The prefect is even more talented. It's just that there were some hiccups in the imperial examination."

"Then isn't this difficulty astonishing?"

"Wow, I don't have any ambition at all. I'm going to be the top scholar. How can a little lantern riddle hold me back?"

"Are you still the top talent?"

After hearing the master's voice, a group of scholars looked in the direction of the lantern one by one.

These scholars were gearing up one by one, as if they were trying their best to solve the mystery.

After all, you can drink with the county magistrate and the prefect.

If this thing can be done, even if you can't pass the Jinshi exam in the future.

It is also something that can be bragging to future generations for a lifetime.

Amidst the noise of the crowd, the first lantern riddle appeared in front of everyone.

"Four mountains are facing mountains, and four rivers are facing each other. Four suns are connected in a chain, and four mouths are closely connected."

A scholar standing nearby was reciting the riddle, and his brows wrinkled tightly as he read out the riddle.

It is indeed a crossword puzzle created by Jinshi. It is really difficult for ordinary people to solve it.

This word puzzle is really difficult!

"This word puzzle is too difficult. It is indeed Mr. Jinshi's word puzzle. I can't figure it out. I'm a little confused!"

"Liu Dazhuang, don't you have the talent of being the number one scholar? Guess, you can drink with the county master and the prefect right after you come out!"

"What's the answer to this crossword puzzle?"

"It's too hard to guess, I can't guess it!"

A group of scholars were confused when they saw the first word puzzle.

"I guessed it, I guessed it!" An old scholar raised his hand high and said to his master excitedly.

"oh?"

"Someone guessed it so quickly?" Master hurriedly looked in the direction of that person.

"Who are you?"

"In Ruian County, Chenjiazhuang, Chen Zimin!"

"As a scholar, I will soon be admitted to the Juren Examination!"

The old scholar patted his chest and said to the master with pride.

"Master Xiucai?" The master just bowed his hand to the old scholar, but didn't say anything more.

Doesn’t every scholar pat his chest and say that he has the ability to lift people up?

In the end, wouldn’t it be possible to fail the examination?

You must know that the difference between the status of a scholar and a scholar is huge.

However, the master would not despise this old scholar because of this.

What if this old scholar is really talented?

Old scholar Chen felt a little dissatisfied when he saw that the master just bowed his hand towards him.

Although it is true that I am a scholar, I can become an official if I pass the imperial examination.

Why do you despise me?

Although he thought so, the old scholar would not express his thoughts.

He just said to his master, "This question is easy, the character is Mi"

"Miluo River!" the old scholar said confidently.

"There is water, there is a mouth, there are mountains, and there is the sun."

"It must be this word!"

The old scholar glanced at the crowd. He thought highly of himself and did not feel that he was wrong.

"What about the quantity? What about the quantity?"

"Where are the four mountains, the four rivers, the four suns, and the four mouths?"

"Old scholar, don't be embarrassed, it's not this charade at all!"

"Haha, I thought he was very talented, but this is the case. Don't pretend to be an old scholar. He is not at all!"

The crowd made a noise and burst into laughter.

Just now, everyone was stunned by the old scholar, thinking that he had really solved the crossword puzzle.

At the moment, it seems that this old scholar feels very good about himself!

Hearing everyone's ridicule, the old scholar blushed like a monkey's butt.

He said harshly: "Master didn't say anything, what did you say?"

"The answer to the crossword puzzle must be this!"

At this time, the master coughed twice and said, "Sir, your answer is wrong."
