"Who is this?" Chen Zhi asked Su Liao, who was serving the other side. As a staff member, he stood beside Chen Zhi with a half-servant manner for inquiries.

To put it bluntly, it is like a secretary who checks for missing outings in later generations. A staff member like Su Liao has always been good at meeting him. Therefore, after paying attention to Chen Zhi's positioning, he put a lot of effort into familiarizing himself with the business. At this time, when he heard Chen Zhi's inquiry, he would introduce him without hesitation.

"Young Master, this is Zhao Yuan, who is both the best in calligraphy and painting. His ancestors can be traced back to the nobles of Zhao State. His family is located in Hebei, which is among the middle grades. However, with his talent, he is now the best grade. He has made a wide range of friends and once set up a college with people, and then escaped. There are many talented people in the academy, and there are seven people who are called the Seven Friends of the Old Courtyard. The Liu Kun, who is in Bingzhou, is one of them."

"Is he Zhao Yuan?" Chen Zhi nodded and looked at the man. With his ability to remember everything Su Liao said, he could record anything that Su Liao said. The many famous scholars, masters, their surnames and names in Luoyang City were all recorded through Su Liao's introduction and the Taile Administration's files one by one, including Zhao Yuan. However, of course there was no corresponding photo of this era, so he did not recognize him, but when Su Liao mentioned it, he immediately knew who it was.

In fact, Chen Zhi was quite impressed by this person, not because of his master's calligraphy and painting skills, because most of the records in the Taile Administration are many people. After reading too much, Chen Zhi was a little numb. Among them, there were no less than twenty of them. What really made Chen Zhi care about was the rumors and anecdotes of this person.

This person is an unruly and famous scholar, and is well-known for his romantic reputation, but the most famous person is his name "a gentleman is a good person". This person is good at women and pursues them more. If he takes action, the women will admire them more and will almost never fail.

In the words of later generations, this is a master of picking up girls.

In addition, this person has a wide range of connections, many friends, and is very appealing. He is considered a young opinion leader and has a great influence.

There is also the friendship with Liu Kun. Liu Kun is already famous in history, and Chen Zhi has also heard of his deeds. He is as famous as Liu Kun, which shows his ability.

In contrast, Zhao Yuan’s so-called identity as a descendant of Zhao State is the dimest.

When I saw him today, I was indeed handsome. No wonder I had such a famous reputation. But the request he made was provocative. But strangely, Chen Zhiguan's expression did not have much malice. It seemed that what was said in this sentence was sincere and did not contain malice.

After looking at it for a while, Chen Zhi simply asked clearly: "Your Excellency, I mean that if Chen wants to ask you to evaluate it, then I must first win you in calligraphy, painting and other matters?"

"Yes," Zhao Yuan nodded, "The Xu family sent someone to find me before, promising to profit and let me not agree when Taile ordered you to send an invitation, but I was bombarded by me. Although I, Zhao Yuan, knowing to seek profit and avoid harm, I also admire the real talented person. I have long heard of Taileling's reputation. If you can show your skills and surpass me, you will follow me."

As soon as this person said this, everyone was shocked. They all looked strange, just because Zhao Yuan spread the matter about the Xu family and said it. Everyone had already tacitly understood this matter, but no one made it clear, because it was impossible to get on the table and it also showed their power. As a result, Zhao Yuan was better and said it directly.

Chen Zhi was also a little surprised, but he laughed randomly, thinking that Zhao Yuan was a wonderful person.

Thoughts, Zhao Yuan's proposal must be responded to. However, before Chen Zhi spoke, Wang Yan, who was sitting next to him, smiled and said, "Xiaojun, Zhao family, you said it simply, but have you ever thought that Taileling invites famous Luoyang masters today, regardless of calligraphy, painting skills, music, etc., everyone comes. Although it cannot be said to be all-encompassing, it also involves a lot of people. Human resources are sometimes poor. Even if he is an article, his calligraphy is wonderful, so how can he be well-versed in everything? If he has ever compared with you, others will not convince him, and he will compare what he is good at with Taileling. This makes no sense."

Zhao Yuan nodded and smiled and said, "I also know this principle. There are rules in everything. My Zhao Yuan's rules are to only obey people who are better than me. No matter how famous Taileling is, if you want me to agree, you have to beat me in this. No matter whether it is sincere invitation or coercion or temptation, it will not work. If I can knock the Xu family pawn away, I will naturally turn around and go."

Have a personality!

Chen Zhi understood it clearly. This person's meaning was very clear. As long as he could beat him in what he was good at, he would unconditionally support himself.

"Zhao Yuan has a great influence. He is a strange person. If he can really support him, he can save a lot of trouble. In fact, this is also the original intention of my invitation. Everyone present has a network of relationships. If he can recruit everyone, even if he cannot use it for his own purposes, he can also eliminate constraints for the subsequent articles and comments, and even get help from all parties. However, many of the people who came today have other ideas, but they don't have the chance to attack. Now that Zhao Yuan takes the lead, someone will probably jump out. If it can be calmed down, then today's goal can be achieved."

As soon as he thought of this, Chen Zhi looked at the other people in the hall and found that there were some people who had indeed changed their expressions and were eager to try. When Wang Yan nodded and said nothing, Zhao Yuan sat down, and one of them stood up, bowed to Wang Yan, and said to Chen Zhi: "Taile Ling Mingjian, what Zhao Jun said is very true. We all know the power of Taile Ling, but it is also due to the power of the three families, and there are many concerns. If Taile Ling can show his abilities, then we should respect him. If it is done from now on, what is the difficulty?"

How far can a person's ability reach?

This is hard to say, but one thing is clear, that is, no one can be proficient in everything, but this person who speaks uses this as an excuse to say that if Chen Zhi can show his achievements in all fields, then they will ignore the threats of Zhang, Xu and Xun families and support Chen Zhi wholeheartedly.

On such occasions, saying such words is equivalent to a formal commitment, because relying on the identity of everyone present, the news is inevitable and cannot be changed, otherwise the person who will break his word will be ruined.

No one dares to joke about fame.

However, the speaker is also very clear that what he says is impossible, so he dares to speak loudly.

Chen Zhi looked at the speaker and recognized the musical master named Leqi. This person had a close relationship with the Zhang family. This time he accepted the invitation, probably not to wait and see, but to wait for an opportunity to make trouble and completely destroy the matter.

Chen Zhi suddenly saw the motivation behind it.

"Unlike Xu Ji, the Zhang family also has its own preparations and is preparing to turn the situation around, but they act more steadily, follow the flow and disrupt the situation halfway. This method of doing things is more exquisite, but the arrival of these people will eventually become my springboard for taking advantage of the situation. I believe that so many people can come this time, and many of them are of this kind of people, and they should all jump out next."

Sure enough, before his thoughts were over, people stood up again, all of whom expressed their agreement.

"Sure enough, the other three companies were prepared for a long time and did not intend to let things develop on their own. Instead, they had to rely on their own forces to dominate the process of things. I don't know how Chen Zhi would deal with it. Since they dared to stand up, they would not be afraid of the authority of the court. It would be impossible to simply use official pressure, and it would be unfavorable. But if they agreed, it would be impossible, because among these people, some are proficient in calligraphy, some are proficient in painting skills, and music, etc. How could Chen Zhi win in everything?"

So, as Zhao Yuan and Leqi spoke one after another, the situation on the scene became more complicated, and everyone who visited was divided into three camps.

Several people represented by Wang Yan, Gu You, Zuo Lian and others were supporters, but the number was the smallest. Except for the five people on that day, only three of them expressed their opinions.

Then there is Zhao Yuan, Le Qi, who let Chen Zhi show his skills. These people have different starting points, but the requirements are the same. As long as they can win, they will follow Chen Zhi.

The last camp is a wait-and-see group like Luo Xun. The number of people is the most, but the most unstable. It is a camp that Chen Zhi and the three families are fighting for.

But which side can win depends on how Chen Zhi responds.

While everyone was waiting, Chen Zhi finally spoke: "Everyone, the one who invited you here today is my great man's Taile Order, but you want to compete with me Chen Zhi, which is a bit biased. The one who needs to be evaluated is the Taile Office, which is to help the court select scholars..."

Hearing what he said, everyone was a little disappointed. No matter which camp it was, even Wang Yan and others were no exception. They frowned because they heard Chen Zhi's words, they wanted to put aside their own responsibilities and use the power of the court to force everyone, but this matter was not feasible, otherwise the court would have summoned everyone long ago.

The reason why they were willing to come here was that Chen Zhi's review would make them curious and look forward to it.

But before their thoughts were over, Chen Zhi suddenly changed his subject: "But I thought that you were willing to come over to give me Chen Zhi face. Since that's the case, I'll also overthrow it once. Please ask you to draw a trail, how to compete?" After he finished speaking, he suddenly clapped his hands, and several servants from the Chen family came over with pens, ink, paper and inkstones, and then arranged them one by one.

Then someone carried many musical instruments and drew a scroll.

The sudden change made everyone in the hall startle to surprise. After a while, Zhao Yuan laughed, stood up and said, "Okay! Just! Taileling is really a cheerful person and has great ambitions. He really doesn't need official power and talent. Since it was proposed by me, let me take the lead! Ask Taileling's powerful man!"

The others looked at the object that had obviously been prepared and understood.

Judging from this, Chen Zhi had obviously prepared a lot!

Le Qi and others looked ugly, and they felt that their actions had probably been expected by Chen Zhi!
Chapter completed!
