I am a winner with Chinese poetry

He really didn't expect that Master Hu's reaction would be so big. In fact, he underestimated the power of Confucian scholars of this era.

It is no exaggeration to say that with this poem, Hu Yong can at least take a step further. The farther his reputation spreads, the greater the benefit to him.

Not to mention the many more invisible benefits, such as the attention of the family and the reputation of a respected teacher.

All of this was brought about by this poem. How could Hu Yong not be excited and grateful?

"Young man, there's no need to hide anymore. You really should accept this gift. You should know that once this poem of yours is published, your master's reputation will soon spread throughout Beichen. Of course, I must thank you for such a great favor!"

The people next to him saw that Gu Yunzhou looked a little embarrassed, and quickly explained with a smile, which helped him out of the predicament.

"That's right, Yunzhou, you gave me such a gift, I, Hu, really appreciate it!"

Hu Yong also spoke with a serious expression at this moment. Seeing that he couldn't avoid it, Gu Yunzhou had no choice but to accept Hu Yong's salute.

After Hu Yong finished his greeting, he looked at Gu Yunzhou with a smile, and the more he looked, the more satisfied and grateful he felt.

He didn't expect that his unintentional action would bring him such a big surprise.

Thinking of this, he spoke again, "Yunzhou, you haven't given a title yet!"

Gu Yunzhou was stunned. The paper on which the poem was written was shining brightly. He was so surprised that he forgot about it. So he quickly picked up the brush again and wrote "Ling Gong Luye Hall Planting Flowers" on the paper.

As the last stroke was made, the light that had just dissipated reappeared, and then quickly gathered into the paper. The originally plain paper had become radiant and colorful, and then returned to normal.

"Could you please sell me this poem? I'm willing to pay a high price for it!" At this moment, a large group of people had already gathered in the pavilion, and they were all staring at the paper on the stone table with eager hearts.

"Vulgar, how can you insult such a treasure by trading it? My friend, I have an ancestral treasure that I'm willing to exchange with you!"

Another person quickly interrupted, saying that this was a poem of the Guanzhou level. Reading it at home could increase one's literary talent, not to mention letting the younger generations of the clan read it frequently could increase their talents. This was a treasure that could not be bought with money.

"Go away, this is the poem Yunzhou wrote for me, go back to where you got it!" Hu Yong quickly protected the paper on the stone table, fearing that it would be snatched away by others.

He was not greedy for the added value of Guanzhou's poem, but as a writer, especially since this poem was written based on him, this was the greatest honor for him, how could he not be tempted.

"Thank you all for your kindness. As I said at the beginning, this poem is a farewell gift for me. I am grateful for your guidance over the years. I am a humble student with nothing to offer, so I can only offer this poem as a farewell gift. I hope you have a safe journey!"

Gu Yunzhou gently folded the papers on the stone table and put them into Hu Yong's hand.

He really thought so, so his eyes were particularly sincere. Hu Yong's body was shaking non-stop. He clenched the paper in his hand with trembling hands, and his eyes were already red.

"Yunzhou, Master, I accept this with audacity. Thank you for this gift. If you come to Liangzhou in the future, don't forget to come and see me. Oh, and here's something for you. If you want to leave Liuyun Town after the provincial examination, you can go to the Wenyuan in Anqing Prefecture. This thing will give you free entry once!"

What Master Hu handed to Gu Yunzhou was an exquisite jade plaque, which was translucent green and had an elegant character engraved in the middle.

"Oh my god, it's actually the token of the Academy of Literature. Hurry and put it away, little brother. This thing is really rare!"

Someone who knew the value of the goods saw this and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, which attracted the attention of a large crowd.

Gu Yunzhou ignored the people around him and looked at the jade token in his hand with curiosity. He looked at his teacher and asked what the use of this thing was. He had never heard of the existence of the Academy of Literature before.

"When you have the literary energy in your body, take this jade token and you'll understand. It's related to everyone's literary palace. Well, it's getting late. Thank you for the poem you gave me today. I like it very much. Okay, Qi'er, we should continue on our journey!"

Master Hu did not explain too much, but just told Gu Yunzhou to keep the jade token. Then he told his grandson, who was distraught and obviously shocked, to leave. Of course, Gu Yunzhou personally handed the poem to Master Hu, who kept it solemnly.

"Brother Gu, today I realized that there are always people better than you. I was too arrogant. Grandfather was right. It won't be long before your talent and fame spread throughout the entire Beichen Kingdom. I hope that when we meet again in the future, I will definitely not lose again!"

Hu Qi originally hung his head in frustration, but as he spoke further, he slowly became more excited, with sparks seeming to ignite in his eyes.

It seems that although he was a little hit by this incident, it also stimulated his unwillingness to admit defeat. He made up his mind to work harder in the future and not lose again when they meet next time.

"Brother Hu, you're too polite. I hope we can have another chance to learn from each other next time we meet!"

Gu Yunzhou had a good impression of Hu Qi. Although he was a little arrogant, he could see that he was a generous person without any scheming. He was also happy to have a good relationship with him.

After seeing off Master Hu, Gu Yunzhou finally got rid of the group of scholars who surrounded him and asked for his poems, and then returned home.

For the next few days, he stayed indoors and reviewed his lessons at home. Although he was almost certain to pass the provincial examination, he still read more books to review and consolidate his knowledge. Revisiting the old and learning the new allowed him to have a deeper understanding of some of the knowledge he had already read.

He didn't know that the entire Lvliu Town, and even the nearby towns and villages, had gone crazy. Everyone was circulating the poem that Gu Yunzhou had given to Master Hu that day.

Although the original work had been taken away by Master Hu, many people witnessed the birth of the poem that day.

As soon as these people returned, they made a big fuss about it, causing an uproar. Because the poem wasn't famous, Gu Yunzhou simply wrote "Hua Xia"! So, in the past few days, the entire Liuyun Town has been frantically searching for this "Hua Xia"!

There were some smart people who found the Gu family based on the Green Thatched Cottage in the poem, but although Master Hu did exist, the Chinese man could not be found.

The wind direction has gradually changed in the past two days. I don't know when it started to spread that this poem was written by the young master of the second branch of the Gu family. The Gu family's attitude is also ambiguous, neither admitting nor denying it.

Anyway, this matter has now caused an uproar in the city, but the person who caused all this is completely unaware of it and is studying peacefully at home.

At this time, in Gu Jin's study in the Gu family mansion, Gu Jin was talking with Gu Tianhua.

There were only the father and son in the study. All the servants and maids had left. Gu Tianhua was looking at his father anxiously.
