Beauty and the Bodyguard

The problem is that you can’t use existing couplets. It’s really difficult to come up with the second couplet in a short time!

The only advantage may be that everyone knows this absolute before, and has thought about it when nothing happens, so at least it has some foundation. You don’t really need to start from scratch.

Lin Yi leaned against a carved jade pillar, holding his chin with his right hand and lost in thought.

The first couplet "Yansuo Pondliu" also exists in the secular world, and it is very famous. It can be regarded as a true eternal absolute.

There is a difficult point on the left side of the five elements. The most important thing is the artistic conception!

The ink painting in front of me well depicts the artistic conception of the first couplet. The second couplet must not only pursue neat contrasts, but also not be too different in terms of artistic conception.

For example, the Tingpei Jinzhu lamp in the second couplet used in the example is also on the left side of the five elements, but first of all, the order of the five elements is different from that in the upper couplet.

Then there is a huge difference in artistic conception, so the score given is only a barely qualified six points.

Lin Yi was recalling the many second couplets at this moment, and then comparing them one by one with the ones already on Fuejao's side to see if there were any overlaps.

Fortunately, Soejima doesn't have many good poems. It seems that in terms of literature, he is far behind compared to the secular world.

In this way, Lin Yi felt confident.

It’s just a second line with a passing score of six, you can throw out a bunch of them casually!

The reason why Eternal Absolute is called Eternal Absolute is because there are many people who are right, but the perfect couplet never appears, and then more people try.

"I have a match!"

Ximen Liuyan was one of the many people who tried it. He had studied Yansuo Pondliu before, but he didn't circulate it because he didn't think the second line was perfect.

This time it was just right to take it out, so he immediately stood out from the crowd and glanced around with satisfaction: "I'm showing off my humiliation by throwing some bricks and mortar! Please give me some advice!"

After pretending to be modest, Ximen Liuyan quickly wrote five elegant characters—Frost Lighthouse Bell!

To be honest, this second line is really ordinary. It is just for the sake of being right, without much consideration for the connection.

In terms of quality, it should be worse than the example sentence just now.

Lin Yi secretly laughed in his heart, Ximen Liuyan had indeed come out to show off his ugliness, but he just didn't understand what was going on in his mind when he did it so complacently.

To attract good news?

Are you afraid that you might have hit yourself by throwing a brick? !

"Although Mr. Ximen's second couplet has all five elements, the radicals on the sides are slightly different and not neat enough. Moreover, the order of the five elements is different, and the artistic conception is slightly lacking. It can only get...six points!"

The palace maid in charge seemed to have a mature set of standards, so she opened her mouth to make appropriate comments.

However, she originally wanted to say six points or less, but because she was concerned about Ximen Liuyan's face, she gave a passing score of six points at the last moment.

In other words, as long as the pair is newly made today and it is not too bad, it should have a passing score of six points to take care of everyone's face.

The disappointment in Ximen Liuyan's eyes flashed away. He was always lucky, thinking that his own was the best, but he didn't expect that he would only get six points in the end.

But it’s good to be able to match up. Others may not even be able to match up, so wouldn’t you still win in the end?

"You've shown your ugliness, you've shown your ugliness! Now let's see your couplets!"

Ximen Liuyan comforted himself, then smiled and stepped back, smiling at the situation and waiting for others to come on or no one to come on!

As a result, as soon as he started to laugh at the situation, the field was already turbulent and the situation changed.

Because two people came out at the same time, and they both picked up their pens and started writing couplets.

Ximen's smiling smile immediately froze on his face, and he cursed in his heart, what about the eternal promise that he had promised?

Is it so easy for someone to solve this problem one after another?

Soon, both of them wrote the second couplet. They both put down their pens and picked up the written couplet.

——Autumn covers the ground with maples!

——The lights are shining on Splendid City!

Ximen Liuyan's face became even more ugly. The second couplet between these two people couldn't be said to be very good, but at least it was not inferior to his!

Just now he was thinking that since no one was right, he would be able to win without a fight.

Now it seems that it was just a thought!

In the final score, both Splendid City with Lights and Maple Covered with Autumn got six points.

But anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is to take care of Ximen Liuyan's face. In fact, Ximen Liuyan's couplets are slightly weaker.

"Sure enough, it's the Eternal Absolute, it's not that easy to match up with!"

Liu Ziyu couldn't help but sigh. He had studied this first couplet before, but he couldn't stand the second couplet he came up with, so naturally he wouldn't show it to shame now.

"Cousin Zhongda, have you thought of a suitable second line?"

Liu Ziyu was already convinced of Lin Yi's magic. He couldn't match it himself, but he firmly believed that Lin Yi could do it, so he asked this question in an affirmative tone.

However, before Lin Yi could speak, Sima Zhongxiao came on stage!

"You all have good quotes, which is really admirable. I happen to have some from them too, so I will post them together and ask for your correction!"

Sima Zhongxiao first smiled and bowed to everyone around him, keeping his posture very low.

He had kneeled and licked everywhere before, and everyone was used to it, so no one wanted to return the favor, and they all just watched his performance indifferently.

He didn't care. After the etiquette came, he turned around, picked up his pen, and started writing quickly on a blank piece of paper.

After finishing writing, Sima Zhongxiao did not rush to pick up the second couplet, but turned around with a smile and said: "I heard that along the coast of Longbang's title kingdom, there are walls to defend against enemies on the sea, equipped with powerful cannons. The inspiration for my second couplet is Hence it comes.”

The words fall and the paper rises!

Five vigorous and powerful characters jumped into everyone's sight!

——Pao Zhenhaicheng Tower!

Lin Yi raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't pay much attention when Sima Zhongxiao wrote it just now, but now he realized that this guy actually wrote this second line.

This is a bit awesome!

It can be determined that there is no such second line in the Soejima books that were scanned by the divine sense before!

So, was it really Sima Zhongxiao who came up with it himself?

Of course, in the secular world, the second line of Pao Zhen Haicheng Tower is quite famous. Many people even think that this second line is the best second line of Yansuo Pondliu!

I didn't expect that Sima Zhongxiao could come up with this second line!

As for the city walls and cannons along the coast of the Longbang Kingdom that he mentioned, they do exist!

If not, Lin Yi would have doubted whether Sima Zhongxiao was also from the secular world!

"Okay! Mr. Sima's second line is quite good!"

The palace maid in charge of scoring praised it without hesitation, and then made a comment: "The five left and right lines and the same order are extremely neat! And they are meaningful. It is indeed a rare pairing!"
