Once it's okay, he listens to you, tell him, and there are some things that can make people ignore our strength improvement, at least at this stage." Cheng Gong waved his hand. In fact, these are secondary reasons. The key issue is that he is optimistic about the tiger. Although this kid is a little impulsive and reckless, he will be desperate when it comes to his brother's affairs, but the essence and talent are absolutely unspeakable.

The first time when Zuimao was a child, the tiger liked the seventh prince. The tiger liked the most was to learn literature. The Lei family was happy for their brothers' literature and martial arts. Later, Zuimao was unable to practice due to physical reasons and then the tiger began to practice. It is precisely because of this reason that his achievements in calligraphy were ranked among the four talents for two consecutive years.

Zhuimao was worried about what he wanted to say, Cheng Gong waved his hand and looked at the sè ghost and the fat man: "We should continue playing these days, and we should continue to have fun, just wait for the competition of the four talents to start, and then the eldest young master will take you to sweep everything..."

The boat was very big, and the drunk cat then took the tiger to the next floor to rest. Although Cheng Gong had inspected the scene at that time, there was no evidence left there. He believed that even if someone knew that there was a fight there, it would be difficult to connect with Du Qian and the others. Unless the seventh prince could not contact Du Qian and the emperor could not contact him. The two sides sent people to contact him again to thoroughly investigate the matter.

Even though he knew that this would happen, Cheng Gong was still ready at this moment, and he still had a lot of fun in the remaining two days. This time, the emperor paid tens of millions of taels of silver to celebrate, even if the emperor sent someone to reward the three armies, no one felt anything. The reward given by Emperor Xi was not as much as the one given by the eldest young master. The wine he gave was far worse than the one bought by the eldest young master. The eldest general Yunge City brothels were booked for the brothers to have fun, and the emperor didn't even give a beautiful woman.

These words have become jokes. It is said that the night after rewarding the three armies, the emperor was very angry. Several eunuchs and palace maids were killed by sticks because they knocked over things.

In the morning of winter, although the sun has risen, the weather is still biting cold. White snow is floating in the sky. It has been falling for several hours, and the ground is covered with thick snow.

The four major talent competitions in previous years were held in autumn, but this year they were postponed due to special reasons. And today it happened that it started to snow in the middle of the night.

"Brother Li, I got up early. Look at Li Fu, I'm so angry that I'm fully prepared this year. I must be trying to reach the top twenty."

"Brother Shangguan was joking. Last year, you almost fought with Zhou Yifan."

"Actually, if I had concentrated on challenging my chess skills at that time, I might have been able to compete with Cheng Lan. It was just that Zhou Yifan was the leader of the four talents, so he had to compete with him."

"Brother Shangguan is indeed brave, so we might as well go together."

Two young and handsome young men came on horseback as soon as the city gate opened, and each of them was followed by several servants, obviously not ordinary families. The two jokingly urged the horse to leave, and then more than a dozen horses left the city together. The martial style of the Lanyun Empire was prevalent, and even the literati were mostly riding horses. Only some civil servants and ladies from wealthy families would sit in sedan chairs.

"Head, what's wrong today?" A recruit looked at the city gate as soon as he opened the city gate, and there were many handsome men riding horses away. It seemed that the number of people was increasing. He looked at an old alcoholic next to him who was secretly holding up the kettle but was already smelling alcoholic early in the morning.

"Well" The old alcoholic has been promoted for no reason recently. But he has to secretly mock it up when drinking. When he heard the recruited eggs ask him, he was dizzy: "Do you know how the bear dies? I'm so stupid. I don't even know such a big news. Today is the Four Talents Competition held by the Sibao Building, which was held in the Four Treasure Manor fifty miles away from the city. This is just the beginning. You can watch it later. There are at least hundreds of thousands of people going to participate in the competition and watch it, and it's lively."

"Ah" The recruit was shocked, hundreds of thousands, so exaggerated.

But then he saw a constant stream of people, including walking, chauffeur, sedan chair, and horse riding. They all happily talked about rushing to the Sibao Manor outside the city. Because it was very difficult to carry out this competition in Yunge City, there were many people participating, and more people were onlookers.

The Sibao Manor is extremely huge. Even if hundreds of thousands of people enter at the same time, it is no problem. At this moment, thousands of people in the Sibao Manor are constantly busy. It is divided into four areas, each area can accommodate nearly 100,000 people to watch, and each area is divided into dozens of small areas. Each area has a platform of about three meters per area, which allows the last person entering the top twenty to compete on stage.

In the central part of these four areas, there is a platform nearly ten meters high. There is a seat every five meters on the platform, where you can look down at the whole venue. These four seats are the seats left for the last time for the chess, calligraphy and painting champions. They do not need to play other competitions, they only need to wait for the winners of the competition in the four areas to come up to challenge them. They only need to compete.

The central high platform of the Four Treasures Tower is very high and very high. There are no one else on the top except the seats of the four talents. There are only four steps around. You can clearly see the competition below on this tower, but it is not something that ordinary people can go up on this tower. According to rumors, the emperors all watched the floor in a very small dress, but no one could confirm it before.

At this moment, on the top of the pagoda where the piano is placed among the four pagodas of the Four Treasures Building, Zhou Yifan was standing at the window and looking at the crowds entering the villa in the distance.

“I have a bad feeling.”

"A bad premonition?" Zhou Song stood next to Zhou Yifan. Although Zhou Song was not as strong as a martial artist at this moment, he was definitely not as old and weak as he was in the Jinsai Hall. Unless the life span has ended and the deadline is approaching, the ability of learning to maintain health and nourish qi is no less than that of ordinary martial arts saints.

Zhou Song looked at the snow falling outside. The outside of the manor was white, and the vastness was white. The manor was decorated with lights and was extremely clean. People would quickly clean up the snow at any time. Although there were many people coming in, they were orderly. At this time of year, after Zhou Song and Zhou Yifan arranged everything, the father and the other would stand here and watch the people coming in and chat quietly. Zhou Song had never heard Zhou Yifan say such words.

"Are you worried that Cheng Lan, who has been building up momentum recently, has gradually become less powerful than you?"

"Cheng Lan?" Zhou Yifan smiled and shook his head: "Although he has improved a lot compared to before,

But he was staring at me a year ago. He now thinks he is not much worse than me a year ago, but he doesn't know how fast I've improved this year. I know that he has hidden some skills, both in terms of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and wants to make a big splash. He finds an opportunity to compete with me in this competition of the Four Talents, and becomes the number one talent in Yunge City, and at the same time builds momentum for the upcoming test. Such a person is not afraid of even if he is very powerful. What I can't see through now is that Cheng Gong."

"Since Princess Zi Yan designed to show that powerful princess, Cheng Gong first killed Cheng Lan's slave, and then won tens of millions of taels of silver with one word. The debt collection name changed to the imperial capital, and killed Ouyang Yulong.

He was chased by the horse gang and could still survive. He swallowed Zheng Sanyuan's property. Finally, he forced the emperor to dismember the five horses and killed Zheng Sanyuan, his father-in-law, and then took advantage of the opportunity to lead his troops to fight. Luofu City led the troops to pacify the Luo family, and then dared to lead a 100,000 army to besiege the Luofu Sword Sect. Later, he even tried to tide the horse gang but Ma Xun's body was not seen. After returning, he made a big fuss in the Golden Mirror Hall and then celebrated wildly. Counting the things he had done during this period, none of them were at a loss, and each of them was earth-shaking. If Cheng Gong had not been hiding deeply, there was a master behind him who was making suggestions, because the Cheng family had changed a lot with Cheng Gong's things, methods of doing things, and methods of dealing with things. Cheng Xiaotian, Cheng Feiyu and others had unexpected behaviors one after another.

"This time Cheng Gong bets so much money, and everyone thinks that he became a nouveau riche after catching Zheng Sanyuan. He doesn't know why he is so rich. Everyone thinks he is a boy with money. Countless people bet Cheng Gong loses, but no matter how much they bet, there will always be money to follow up, which has greatly stimulated some people. If Cheng Gong really wins this time, he can really be called wealthy and a country."

Seeing that the competition for the Four Talents was about to begin, but his grandson was so calm and did not get lost by winning twice in succession, Zhou Song was very satisfied.

"Two years ago, you proposed a strategy to deal with the Cheng family. Grandpa knew that you had grown up and grandpa supported you with all his strength. But sometimes, there are many small changes and adjustments in a big goal. Cheng Lan is all from the Cheng family. As for Cheng Gong's repeated conflicts with the emperor, the emperor has finally been unable to bear it. The emperor had contacted Prince Jing a few days ago, and it seems that the seventh prince should have achieved results. As for this competition, it is just a form of prestige and influence in our Zhou family. To put it bluntly, it is a game for children."

After hearing the grandfather’s reminder, Zhou Yifan’s eyes lit up immediately and nodded: “Cheng Lan is very ambitious. His ambition can be seen by others, so it’s easy to deal with it. It just so happens that with the help of this competition, I will use their brotherly relationship to do some tricks in the future, and at the same time I will find ways to make a conflict between Cheng Gong and the Seventh Prince. At that time, we only need to add fuel to the fire, because the emperor definitely hopes that the Seventh Prince can rise up, and only in this way can the Cheng family be suppressed. As for Cheng Gong, no matter whether he is really capable or pretends to have the ability, his chess piece is very useful.”
