Becoming a son-in-law since Douluo

Chapter 168 Succeeded upstairs!

She was tall and slender, wearing a red dress with a hundred birds facing the phoenix, half of her face was covered by a pure white veil, leaving only a pair of watery eyes staring at everyone.

Even so, the first impression it gives people is still four words: overwhelm the country and overwhelm the city!

Even though the two maids beside her were extremely beautiful, they seemed to be overshadowed by her.

And this is just the result of half of his face?
"This should be Mei Niang, right?" Li Liubai curiously asked the bustard beside him.

The procuress said excitedly, "That's right, she is Mei Niang!"

Li Liubai smacked his tongue and said, "You are so proud, half of your face is covered."

"This half of the face is already famous. If the whole face is exposed, the whole world will probably be overwhelmed by it." The old bustard kept shaking his head, admiring and sincerely admiring at the same time.

Mei Niang beckoned, and a guard standing on the stairs on the eighth floor immediately stepped forward, bowed his head and half-kneeled in front of her.

Immediately afterwards, Mei Niang handed over a set of scrolls to the guard, and the guard took the scroll with both hands and returned to the corridor.

He excitedly opened the scroll, as if it was a great honor to serve Mei Niang.

"Quiet! Those who make noise will be disqualified!" The guard shouted loudly, and the crowd who were still talking about it fell silent in an instant.

After all, no one wants to lose their qualifications, otherwise they will have to wait another month.

And each month's questions are different, if this month's questions can be answered just right, and you are disqualified because of the noise, wouldn't it be a blood loss?
After everyone quieted down, the guard read aloud the title on the scroll, "Everyone, please write a poem with the sword as the title, and there must be three words [Hua Man Tang] in it."

Immediately afterwards, the guards distributed pens and paper to everyone. There was only one piece of paper in total, which meant that each person had only one chance to answer.

Before the guards distributed paper and pens, many people began to rack their brains to think and prepare to create.

This poem is not too difficult, but it is not easy to say, after all, there must be flowers, and the three characters in the name of the brothel must be written well.

It is difficult to fully meet the above poles!
"Ding! Trigger the moment of decision!"

"Option [-]: Answer the question and pass the test. Reward: Level [-] mental power."

"Option 100: Can't answer the question. Reward: [-] taels of silver."

The rewards for the two options are very different. More importantly, even if Li Liubai wants to choose one and answer the question, he has to rely on himself to answer the question first.

Li Liubai also started brainstorming for the field of mental power, which has not been touched before, and kept thinking in his mind.

During this period.

Many people created what they thought were "excellent works", and the guards handed them to Mei Niang for review, but none of them satisfied her.

Those who finished answering the questions went downstairs in disappointment. On the eighth floor, which was originally crowded, there were fewer and fewer people.

Got it!

Li Liubai thought of an ancient poem in an instant, the content of which was extremely in line with the requirements of the title.

He immediately took up the pen, modified it a little, and wrote four lines of verse on the paper in one go, and then summoned the guards to pass it to Mei Niang.

The guard handed the paper to Mei Niang, and Mei Niang looked at the first sentence calmly, and her originally calm heart began to stir up waves.

When she saw the second sentence, her eyes lit up even more, and the two maids beside her noticed the change in her expression.

Apart from the maids who have been paying attention to Mei Niang's expression, there are also the gentlemen and talents on the eighth floor. When they noticed Mei Niang's shocked expression, they couldn't help but have a bad feeling
Mei Niang turned around and said a few words to the two maids, and the two maids immediately went downstairs, came straight to Li Liubai, and greeted respectfully, "My lord, Mei Niang welcomes you!"

For a moment, all eyes were on Li Liubai.

Envy, jealousy, hate, all three.

If eyes can kill, Li Liubai must have been cut into pieces by now, but the problem is that eyes can't kill people.

Li Liubai looked proudly at the old bustard beside him, as if to say, "Did you see? I am the man who can convince the god-like Mei Niang in your eyes."

The old bustard was also stunned. He never thought that Li Liubai would be favored. You must know how many so-called talented people answered the questions before, but none of them passed.

A maid followed Li Liubai and led him upstairs, while another maid stood on the stairs and said to everyone, "Everyone, please go back!"

"No! I doubt the fairness of the topic!" A scholar shouted excitedly holding a brush.

"I suspect that this kid used some ulterior motive to threaten Mei Niang to let him pass the test."

"Mei Niang, don't be afraid, with us here, no one can threaten you!"

With the first speaker, soon there was the second, and the third. So much so that everyone voiced resistance, and everyone thought that Li Liubai passed the test in other ways.

Li Liubai sympathized with these people's psychology, because no matter what happened between him and Mei Niang tonight, in their opinion, Mei Niang would become less "pure".

They all wanted to be like themselves, to be the first man to pass the test and set foot on the ninth floor to spend the night with Mei Niang.

Mei Niang didn't explain, but ordered the maid to hand over Li Liubai's answer sheet to the guard on the stairs. The guard took the answer sheet and began to read.

"Pretty in Pink is leaning against a tall building, how long will she feel lonely in her heart?"

"Three thousand guests are full of flowers and drunk, and one sword is frosty and cold in nineteen states!"

The moment he finished reading, the guard felt his scalp go numb, and the noisy crowd instantly became quiet!

The first two lines of the poem describe Mei Niang, who can be said to be affectionate, which seems a bit petty.

But what is more important is the last two sentences, which raised the grade to the realm of the country at once, which made people feel emotional after reading it, and couldn't control themselves for a long time.

"Everyone, I accept it." Li Liubai stood on the ninth floor, looked down at the people on the eighth floor, and handed in the acquiescence.

The first two lines of this poem were adapted by him, and the last two lines are the classics quoted. Not only did it meet the requirements, but he also created a rare good line!

A literati shook his head and sighed, "I'm not wronged!"

"This person is really a great talent!"

"Slipped away, went to the seventh floor to find a girl to vent my anger."

After the poems written by Li Liubai were made public, no one felt wronged to lose, because their poems were worthless compared with this one.

Let alone one night, even if you think about it for a lifetime, you will not be able to write a poem like "One Sword Frost and Cold Nineteen States".

lost!

Defeated convinced!

So, no matter how reluctant they were, people left one after another.

Of course, everyone cursed Li Liubai ten thousand times in their hearts before leaving.

Li Liubai asked tentatively, "Mei Niang, can I go to your boudoir now?"

Mei Niang nodded, and made a gesture of invitation to Li Liubai.
