"Ma Kongqun, who are you calling filthy!" Being belittled by the youth in front of others, the young master was furious to the point of madness. He was about to lose his mind.
"Zhu Yu, did I say something wrong?" The youth sneered, "Don't think that just because you've read books but don't understand the principles in them, you're a scholar? You've really thrown away the face of us scholars! "
Ma Kongqun, Zhu Yu!
Chu Yang knew the names of these two people, and couldn't help but frown. With Ma Kongqun's appearance, he was afraid that his plan to get some money from Zhu Yu would be ruined.
Zhu Yu trembled with anger, but he could not do anything to Ma Kongqun. He was even afraid of Ma Kongqun, but he was not willing to accept this. After thinking hard, he immediately thought of a way.
After that, he thought that everything was caused by that lowly commoner. His heart was filled with hatred. He looked at Chu Yang threateningly and said to Ma Kongqun, "This lowly commoner is not a scholar. He calls himself a scholar, so why can't I teach him a lesson or two?"
"Hmph!" Ma Kongqun coldly snorted, "If he's not a scholar, then you're one, Zhu Yu? That poem just now, how can you compose it! "
Ma Kongqun was attracted by Chu Yang's slow recitation.
"Is being able to compose a poem a scholar?" Zhu Yu stubbornly insisted, "He has a literary position!"
In the Continent Center, one could only be considered a scholar if one had a literary position. As for the literary position, one had to pass the examination of the Jin Dynasty. Chu Yang had a general impression of it. Scholar, Xiucai, Juren, and so on were all literary positions.
Ma Kongqun did not immediately refute Zhu Yu. Instead, he cupped his fists towards Chu Yang and said, "May I know this brother's name?"
"This one is Liu Xunhuan!"
"Brother Liu, you've just arrived at the Central State, how can you obtain a civil position!" Ma Kongqun finally said coldly, "Zhu Yu, you better stop before you go too far!"
"Humph!" Zhu Yu retorted, "Without a pen, how can you call yourself a scholar? Are scholars so cheap?"
"You're being unreasonable!" Ma Kongqun angrily said, "Liu Xiong wrote a poem on the spot to educate you. What kind of literary talent is this? You can easily get a literary position. If this is not a scholar, then what is?"
"Ridiculous!" Zhu Yu laughed mockingly, "Ma KongQun, according to what you're saying, does that mean that all those who are literate in the Central Region are scholars? If you're a scholar just because you know how to read, then what's the point of having a civil position in the imperial examinations? "
Ma Kongqun pondered for a moment and couldn't refute.
He used this method to agree with Chu Yang. In this way, without the barrier of a civil position, everyone could also call themselves a scholar. Because those literate people, no one dared to say that they didn't have talent.
Chu Yang watched from the side for a while. Zhu Yu won and he couldn't help but feel happy. It was as if the cute Silver was already waving at him.
Of course, this was also the time for him to enter the stage.
"Brother Zhu, right?" Chu Yang calmly and elegantly smiled, "I indeed don't have a civil position, but I can prove that I'm a scholar!"
He smiled even more happily and looked at Zhu Yu, "Won't it be fine if I beat you, a scholar? I challenge you, do you dare to accept?"
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but be startled.
Pa!
Chu Yang opened his folding fan and elegantly waved it. He smiled in his heart, "Here comes Silver!"
When Ma Kongqun heard this, he couldn't help but smile. This was indeed a solution. Chu Yang didn't have a civil position, but if he beat someone with a civil position, then he would naturally be a scholar.
