One is the son of an aristocratic family, and the other is the son of the Mo family, who is famous in Chang'an city. The grievances between the two people were quickly picked out one by one.
From the grain purchase in Mojia village to the gratitude and resentment of the Imperial College, it soon spread among the population.
For a moment, they had a new hatred and a strong smell of gunpowder.
Wei Si'an's face is gloomy and vicious. In terms of status, the Mohist school is not inferior to him at all. In terms of financial resources, they are very different. If they compete, he will suffer losses today.
"Don't argue, you two. This gold jewelry is not for sale, but for free to the last winner today." the shopkeeper of jinyulou wiped his sweat,
Jinyu building came here today to make a name for itself. Of course, it won't simply sell gold jewelry.
Although it is said that both of them can't afford to offend Jinyu building, if one of them is not handled well, it will cause trouble for Jinyu building. However, in the future, it is reported that Mohist and Wei's legitimate sons are competing for gold jewelry, which will certainly improve the reputation of Jinyu building.
"The last winner?" Wei Si'an frowned. "If the Golden Jade building is a competition to write poetry, there's no need to compare. I'll turn around and go!"
Although Wei Si'an's words have the meaning of admitting counseling, no one ridicules him. After all, the poetic talent of Mohist school is recognized by the people of Chang'an city. Even the great scholars of contemporary Wenzong are ashamed of themselves in front of Mohist school.
The shopkeeper of jinyulou secretly regretted that if he had known that he could meet mojiazi today, he would have decided to write poetry. Mojiazi's poetry is hard to change. Can it be just a gold jewelry.
"I don't know how to win this golden jewelry." a voice coaxed in the crowd.
The shopkeeper of Jinyu building arched his hands around and said in a loud voice, "tonight is the night of the Lantern Festival. Thousands of people enjoy the lantern riddles. Naturally, we will take the lantern riddles as the game. Please look at the fire trees and silver flowers in front of our shop. There are 15 lanterns, and there is a lantern riddle under each lantern. Anyone who can lead to answer the 15 lantern riddles first can get the full gold jewelry given by Jinyu building."
"Guess lantern riddles?" many people burst into an uproar.
No one thought that jinyulou gave away gold jewelry by guessing lantern riddles. Suddenly, many people were excited. This was not a comparison of talent and family background. Naturally, they also had the opportunity to get it.
Princess Changle was puzzled and asked, "how can there be such a good thing as dropping pie in the world? How can Jinyu building give gold for nothing?"
Merton bowed his head and explained: "Being able to answer 15 consecutive questions in a very short time, and if you answer one question wrong, you will miss the opportunity. It seems simple, but it is very difficult. Even I am not sure. Moreover, even if Jinyu building finally sends out full gold jewelry, it will certainly attract enough popularity. Jinyu building can just take the opportunity to make a sign and become famous in Chang'an city No loss.
Princess Changle suddenly looked at the honest jinyulou shopkeeper and said, "it's really a profiteer."
After that, he didn't forget to stare at Merton. Merton immediately suffered a reckless disaster. It was clearly the cunning of Jinyu building, which was counted on his own head,
Merton naturally knew that there was no good end to arguing with a woman at this time, no matter whether the woman disguised as a man or not.
Wei Si'an's face was a little relaxed. He had prepared for the Lantern Festival night for a long time. Naturally, he was proficient in lantern riddles and the MOH family,
"Brother Mo, dare you fight on the stage!" Wei Si'an shouted, provoking and looking at Merton. Although he thinks he is inferior in poetry, he doesn't believe that the Mexican family can't even compare with the lantern riddle.
Merton sighed in his heart, but he knew that future generations also had question answering programs, and it was not easy to answer 15 correct answers in a row.
But now Princess Changle is looking behind her back. Merton naturally can't recognize it. Lang said, "it's what you want, and you don't dare to invite your ears.
"Can we also participate?" many people in the audience coaxed. Although they knew that they were talented, they naturally didn't want to let go of the opportunity to make white gold.
The shopkeeper of jinyulou nodded and said, "that's natural. Anyone who has passed the examination of our shop and is proficient in lantern riddles can participate! Of course, Prince Wei and Lord Mo are the talents of the Imperial College. Naturally, they are exempted from passing the examination."
"As long as you pass the examination of jinyulou, you can participate in the final competition for gold jewelry with Lord Mo and childe Wei." the shopkeeper of jinyulou pointed to more than ten offerings behind you.
Suddenly, many people rushed away. Guessing lantern riddles is very unorthodox. Not many people are good at it. If they can win with their real skills, they will have nothing to say.
However, as Merton said, the examination of Jinyu building is also a continuous answer to 15 lantern riddles. It seems simple, but in fact it is extremely difficult. Many people go to the examination. Finally, only four people can really pass the examination of Jinyu building. In addition, Merton and wesan are only six.
It is obvious that the four are good at guessing puzzles. Each of them does not admit defeat. Even in the face of wesan's power and Merton's fame, none of them is willing to give up.
With the sound of a gong, the riddle guessing began.
"OK, let's welcome the first lantern!" the shopkeeper of Jinyu building reached out and a waiter took down a lantern at the bottom and handed it to him.
The shopkeeper of jinyulou took out the lantern riddle and shouted out loudly. The first lantern riddle was ordinary, and the six people answered it quickly.
However, the second puzzle suddenly became more difficult and eliminated one person directly.
Soon the second and third people were eliminated. Until question 12, a middle-aged scholar defeated me with a bitter smile. At this time, only Merton and wesan were left on the stage.
Wesan couldn't help humming coldly when he looked at Merton. He didn't expect that Merton was so difficult. He was so proficient in lantern riddles. He had already been prepared and was embarrassed to have a tie with the Mohists.
Looking at the two people on the stage, the shopkeeper of jinyulou couldn't help showing a trace of satisfaction. In any case, the biggest winner of tonight's outcome must be jinyulou.
At that moment, the shopkeeper of jinyulou took down the 13th lantern without hesitation, sang the riddle loudly and said, "New Year's Eve is the end of the year!"
Merton immediately frowned. This sentence seems meaningless. New Year's Eve is not new year's Eve. It is indeed the end of the year, but guessing lantern riddles naturally can't be calculated in this way.
Merton's face moved, and his eyes lit up when he saw the word "the end of the year". The bottom of the year was not exactly Xi, but also the word "Xi" on New Year's Eve.
Merton suddenly realized that he picked up his pen and wrote more than one word on the paper and handed it to him. At the same time, wesan also handed in the answer.
"Congratulations, you have answered correctly! The answer to this riddle is many words." the shopkeeper of jinyulou said.
They tied again.
The surrounding people were stunned. To tell the truth, this riddle is quite difficult. Ordinary people are still thinking hard. Both of them have blurted out the answer.
When the fourteenth lantern was taken, the people immediately held their breath and waited for another fierce confrontation.
"Painting is round, writing is square, winter is short and summer is long." when the shopkeeper of jinyulou broke the mystery again, the whole audience frowned.
What is it that can have four states of radius and length at the same time? Each one looked at the shopkeeper of jinyulou and wondered if he was wrong.
When the manager of jinyulou must say it again, the whole audience was in an uproar.
Weisi'an also frowned. When the funnel of timing was about to run out, weisi'an subconsciously looked up at the sky, suddenly realized that he was writing down the answer.
Wei Si'an proudly handed over his answer and said to the shopkeeper of Jinyu building, "this time, I want to listen to brother Mo's answer first."
The shopkeeper of jinyulou turned to Merton and saw that Merton nodded indifferently. Then he opened Merton's answer. His eyes lit up and read aloud.
"There is a fish in the East China Sea without head or tail. Removing the backbone is your mystery."
Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect that Merton's answer was also a mystery.
The middle-aged scholar who lost the battle before brightened his eyes when he heard the speech and said, "this is a riddle to solve the riddle. If what I expected is not bad, the answer to this riddle should be Japanese."
"Break the riddle with a riddle." they suddenly realized that Merton's riddle was a character riddle, which was the easiest to solve. It was easy for them to think of the Japanese character.
At this time, people suddenly draw a circle, write a square, short in winter and long in summer.
Wei Si'an couldn't help hating in his heart. He saw the moon in the sky. He didn't expect that the Mo family was unique and robbed the limelight by breaking the mystery.
