"Eunuch Li, Duke Xiao, Miss Liu and the rest are here."
Just as Yi Feng and Yi Liu were talking, the other scholars were also sitting upright and still, looking in one direction with extreme respect.
Yi Feng looked over and indeed saw the head of the Li family. He had a kind smile on his face as his gaze swept across the scholars. When he saw the lipstick marks on Yi Feng's face, he was slightly startled. However, he immediately shifted his gaze away. Even with Yi Feng's perception, he did not notice it.
Duke Xiao stood on his left. Duke Xiao was still doddering in old age and appeared to be extremely energetic.
Liu Mengran stood on the right side of the head of the Li family. Liu Mengran was wearing a long dress that accentuated her figure. Her skin that was not covered by the long dress emitted a white luster. As she smiled sweetly, all the men on the boat were mesmerized.
Yi Feng looked at the infatuated gazes and his eyes were filled with pride. This woman was already his. Thinking of Liu Mengran's seductive appearance when she was naked, Yi Feng's eyes were filled with pride.
"Hehe, if this group of bastards knew that Liu Mengran was already tossing and turning under his body, I wonder what expressions they would have?"
Liu Mengran did not even look at the attentive gazes of the four great scholars. Her gaze shifted to the lipstick marks on Yi Feng's face. There was a hint of rebuke in her eyes. However, she immediately took out a silk handkerchief and wanted to wipe Yi Feng's face. However, the head of the Li family grabbed her hand.
Liu Mengran was stunned. Only then did she cast an apologetic look at Yi Feng, her eyes filled with self-blame.
"Dead, dead!"
Yi Feng felt that he had been conquered by Liu Mengran once again in an instant. This woman was always thinking for him. She could make people pamper her to the bone.
"Scholars, please take a seat!" The head of the Li Family led Duke Xiao and the rest to the main seats. He waved to Yi Feng and the rest of the 10 candidates. After Yi Feng and the rest were seated, he said, "You are all dragons and phoenixes among men. I will choose the most outstanding one among you to be Mengran's husband."
"To be able to participate in Miss Liu's betrothal is also a great honor for us." The Third Prince laughed heartily. He looked at Liu Mengran and did not hide his love for her at all.
Yi Feng rolled his eyes and ignored this bootlicker. Out of sight, out of mind.
"Hehe!" The head of the Li family laughed twice, and then his eyes moved away from Yi Feng without leaving a trace. He continued, "As a scholarly family, the Li family has extremely high requirements for talent. Therefore, only those who are proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting can enter my Li family. "
"Li Gong, please give us your questions!" The four great scholars obviously had a certain level of confidence in their zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Although they were apprehensive of Yi Feng, they still spoke heartily.
"No hurry! Listen to me slowly! " The head of the Li family smiled and continued, "Only the four of you can enter the top 10. Your poems and songs might not be ordinary. Then this time, we will not compete in poems and songs. Young Master Pan An, what do you think? "
When Liu Mengran heard Li Gong's words, her expression changed abruptly. She anxiously said to the head of the Li family, "Grandfather! Didn't you just promise me this? "
Liu Mengran naturally knew that if they were to compete in poems and songs, no one would be able to compete with Yi Feng. Yi Feng's casual scribbles were absolute classics. How could they be compared to him? Therefore, Liu Mengran repeatedly requested that there must be poems and songs in the competition. The head of the Li family also agreed. However, she did not expect that he would remove Yi Feng's specialty at this time. This made Liu Mengran very anxious!
Yi Feng was stunned. He did not expect Liu Mengran to be so serious. The head of the Li family was really making things difficult for him. Yi Feng was a little puzzled. The head of the Li family was not an idiot. He could see the relationship between Liu Mengran and him. What benefits would he gain by doing this?
How could Yi Feng know that when Li Gong saw the lipstick mark on Yi Feng's face, he was furious. This bastard brat actually dared to seduce other women at the marriage banquet. If he did not take him down a notch, he would bully his precious granddaughter to death in the future. Therefore, he did not even think about it and changed the topic that he originally discussed with Liu Mengran.
"Don't worry about it!" Li Gong said to Liu Mengran. He looked at Yi Feng and said, "What do you think, Young Master Pan An?"
Yi Feng shrugged indifferently and said, "Li Gong is the master. You can decide everything!"
When the head of the Li family saw Yi Feng's arrogant look, a wave of anger rose in his heart. "This bastard brat is actually neither servile nor overbearing. Mengran will be bullied to death by him in the future."
"Hehe! Since no one has any objections! Then I will say the topic. There will be a total of three rounds. The zither, chess, calligraphy, painting, chess, chess, and painting competitions. As for the last round, Mengran will set the topic. As long as one of you passes the three rounds, he will be my Li family's son-in-law. "The head of the Li family said.
"Grandfather!" Liu Mengran was anxious and almost cried. She did not expect that her grandfather seemed to have a grudge against Yi Feng and consecutively removed two of Yi Feng's best skills. Zither and poetry, who here could compare to him?
When Yi Feng saw Liu Mengran so anxious, he winked at Liu Mengran, indicating for her to be at ease. Although Liu Mengran was angry at her grandfather, when she saw Yi Feng's confident expression, she snorted at the head of the Li family and did not refute.
When the four great scholars heard Li Gong's words, they almost laughed out loud. This kind of competition was completely on their side. They knew that Yi Feng's zither skills and poetry were very strong, but could it be that Yi Feng was also the best in chess and painting?
Everyone regained their lost confidence. Their gazes were filled with provocation as they looked at Yi Feng.
Yi Feng smiled indifferently. They were just a few barbarians. In front of the ancestors of the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting, how could they overturn the heavens?
"Since no one has any objections, then the first round will be a painting competition. I specially invited Duke Xiao to be the judge. Everyone knows Duke Xiao's character very well. He will definitely not be biased. Then let's use my granddaughter Mengran as a substitute and draw a painting. The one with the fastest speed and the most vivid image will win! Duke Xiao, say a few words! "The head of the Li family laughed.
Duke Xiao stood out and said, "Hehe, the rules are as Li Gong said. However, I will limit the time to three incense sticks. After three incense sticks, regardless of whether the painting is completed or not, the painting must stop."
"Three incense sticks?" All of the candidates were shocked. Although three incense sticks was not a lot, it was still not enough to make a good painting. However, those who could make it into the top ten, except for the skinny monkey and the young man, were all dragons and phoenixes. Although they felt that the time was too short, no one objected. After all, no one felt that they were inferior to others.
Yi Feng curled his lips and said as if he was talking to himself, "It takes three incense sticks to make a painting. Will he fall asleep?"
Yi Feng's muttering did not escape the ears of others. Duke Xiao laughed and said to Yi Feng, "Young Master Pan An, do you have any objections?"
Yi Feng saw that everyone was looking at him. He smiled and said, "Uh, no objections."
Duke Xiao also knew that Pan An was Yi Feng. He smiled and said, "Young Master Pan An, if you have any objections, feel free to raise them!"
"Uh! I just feel that the time is a bit too short. "
When everyone heard Yi Feng's words, they all gloated. He was worried that the time was too short!
"If Young Master Pan An feels that the time is too short, I can increase it to five incense sticks!"
"Ah! No need, no need! I mean, that's too long. Can you increase it to five incense sticks? "
