Another one is definitely: tune the piano, tune it, tune it, tune it, tune it, tune it, tune it, tune it, tune it, tune it, tune it, tune it.

These three absolutes have spread all over the world since Merchant Alliance Headquarters hosted a banquet, and have become almost universally known to women and children.

But no one expected that Heir of Prince Xiang would slip out these two pairs at this moment, which was just like leftovers.

When I first heard about it, everyone was in an uproar and felt relaxed. But after thinking about it for a moment, I suddenly realized that a problem had arisen.

Because of my habit, these three absolutes, except for the last word "tune", were barely corrected by many talented people after many talks and discussions.

The pair with the word "smoke" and the pair with the word "Radical 'Bao Gai'" have never been matched so far, and even the reluctant and incomplete pairs have rarely been published.

Heir of Prince Xiang was very satisfied with the shock he had brought. He took a step forward and walked around in a circle and said, "Everyone, this time you won't accuse someone unjustly and make some nonsense, right?"

Ye Piaoling sneered, "Your Majesty, this is nonsense. I don't think you are even deceiving the world and stealing your reputation. To say that you are a literati is to insult the word literati. Use my masterpiece Poet Immortal, Word Sage from Dai Viet to embarrass me, a Dai Viet literati. Do you know the shame of shame? How to write, do you want Ye to teach you!"

Ye Piaoling was the one who was dragged by Prince Pu'an Yi to fight with Xu Yi together with Poetic Heart Gu Yunzhen that day.

It was precisely because he was there and had a profound understanding that Heir of Prince Xiang discovered these two couplets at this moment, which made him feel special.

Ye Piaoling shouted, and the whole place burst into applause.

Chen Guanhai frowned secretly, he deeply thought that Heir of Prince Xiang's move was not good.

If the "sky is so high" in the previous series was not enough to highlight Heir of Prince Xiang's shamelessness, then with these two pairs, even if Heir of Prince Xiang wins, he will never gain fame.

The whole place was shouting, but Heir of Prince Xiang turned a deaf ear and said loudly, "Since it is a competition, I will set the question and you will solve it. We only strive for victory and defeat, no matter what else. Moreover, I have not restricted who can disintegrate. You are trying to control the group. If there are many people, there will be no one who can do it, right?"

As soon as these words came out, all the new scholars were furious and ashamed.

What makes me extremely angry is that this pair is obviously absolute, and no one in the world can oppose them. This person singled out this pair to attack, which is extremely despicable and shameless.

What is shameful is that after countless years of hard study and hard work, I have already been named on the gold medal list and am the leader in the world, but I still can't break the couplets of this mere number.

How can I be worthy of being a scholar?

Top Scholar adjusted his mind and said, "Your Excellency asked your question, but you asked your own question. You used the question of a famous figure in our country to embarrass our country's scribes, and if you use the lock of my family to tie up my family members, how can it be justified? I advise you to retreat quickly, lest the dignified Ba State become the laughing stock of the world."

Heir of Prince Xiang sneered, "If you can't say it's right, then you can't say it's right. But you have to think about others and say so many things. Absolute, there is no such thing as absolute. It's just that you are ignorant and don't see True Buddha yourself worshiping ghosts."

Top Scholar was furious, "There is no point in arguing with words. If you are right, Lu Mou will be the loser."

He simply didn't believe that Heir of Prince Xiang could confront him, and he only regarded it as his big words to deceive the world.

After all, Dai Viet, a car full of outstanding talents, all failed in front of these two couplets. What can a mere eloquent person do?

Having said that, if this person can even break through these two absolutes, what else can he do other than accept defeat?

Heir of Prince Xiang turned to look at the fellow scholars and said, "How can you say that after a certain confrontation, you will have to repeat the rhetoric again?"

"If you confront us, we will retreat."

"Bullshit!"

"False words and threats are childish!"

"Unparalleled pairing, you have only been studying for a few years!"

"..."

The voices of scolding continued, but everyone's intention was already clear. As long as Heir of Prince Xiang stepped forward, the dispute would be over.

"Get Four Treasures of the Study!"

Heir of Prince Xiang shouted loudly, hitting everyone's hearts like a giant hammer.

Two groups of eunuchs accompanied him and quickly delivered the case, pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

When the ink was ready, Heir of Prince Xiang took the snow White Wolf pen, and all eyes were focused on the tip of his pen.

After a few brush strokes, the two rows of words were divided into two lines, exactly: smoke along the eaves, smoke in the swallow's eyes, lodging in the Hakka stay in the cold window, lonely and empty.

When two rows came out, the sound of relief was like the surging waves.

Immediately, with a few more strokes, the surging waves instantly gathered into a huge wave, with the sound of chairs toppling over and the sound of bills shaking.

Heir of Prince Xiang started writing, and the two eunuchs held the huge snow-white banner high.

However, when I saw two columns and four rows of large characters on the paper with thick ink, I saw that under the words "Smoke Yan Yanyan Yanyan Yan Yan", what fell was "Wu Wuwu Wuwu House".

And the whereabouts of "staying in the Hakka house and guarding the loneliness of the cold window" is exactly "avoiding the lost path and returning to the lotus path to return to freedom".

The audience was full of learned people, and as soon as these two couplets came out, their hearts were shaken like thunder, and thunderbolts fell from the sky. Everyone knew that this was not the right match, but the right match was almost perfect.

The difficulty of "Smoke Couple" is that the words with the same sound form a rather beautiful sentence.

In order to match up, it is extremely difficult just to find words with homophones to form a sentence, and to form the words with homophones in the sentence, the nature of the characters must be consistent with the first couplet.

For example, the first smoke in the first couplet is a noun, the second smoke is a verb, and the second couplet should also be the same.

In addition, the characters of "Yan, Yan, Yan, Yan, Yan" must be taken into account in the second line.

In this way, the difficulty is even higher, and it is simply inhuman writing.

Unexpectedly, Heir of Prince Xiang was written in a convulsive storm, and the words became weeping ghosts and gods, but they came out perfectly.

In addition, "Radical 'Bao Gai'" in the second line is correct. The problem is that all eleven characters in the sentence have the same header of Radical 'Bao Gai'.

To match, you must find the same eleven characters with the same radical to form a sentence.

This is extremely difficult. The sentences must also take into account both character and character. To achieve this, the difficulty is only slightly less than that of the "smoke" couplet.

The second couplet written by Heir of Prince Xiang not only perfectly achieves the two, but what is even more wonderful is that the upper and lower lines form a perfect linkage, forming a fit, which means creating an artistic conception.

This is the supreme pursuit of perfect couplets.

The first couplet of "Radical 'Bao Gai'" says: It is so lonely to stay at a guest's house and watch the cold window, expressing the feeling of homesickness.

The second line of "Going to the bottom" gives an answer to the first line: Since I am wandering abroad and the road ahead is bleak, it is better to return to my hometown where the lotus flowers are in full bloom and return to freedom and freedom.

Such talent cannot be given by God.

The two couplets moved the world, and the dead palace remained dead silent.

A group of new scholars were convinced that they had lost. The joy that arose from being admitted to the imperial examination, making pilgrimages to the Golden Palace, and having a banquet in the Qionglin Forest was completely defeated at this moment.

Chen Guanhai on the side was so excited that he was shaking all over. He never expected that Heir of Prince Xiang's astonishing talent could reach such an extent that even the absolutes spread across the world in Dai Viet would be destroyed in his hands.
