The huge examination room was quiet, and the sound of footsteps in the distance could be heard vaguely. The smell of ink filling the air was not pleasant, but instead added to the urgency.
There was the sound of brushes rubbing paper in the examination rooms on the left and right, but Yunjing looked at the examination papers in front of him in a daze.
The eye-catching poetry test questions were right in front of him. There were no requirements, as long as they were original, but he didn't know how to write them.
He is really not good at writing poetry.
Speaking of the characters of the Dali Dynasty, Yunjing can¡¯t say that there are none if he doesn¡¯t know or write them, but there are definitely not many. But why is it so difficult to compose each character into a poem?
The so-called difficulty is relative. It¡¯s no problem for him to write some flowing words, but it¡¯s really difficult for him to write a barely understandable poem.
Time passed little by little, the sun gradually rose, breakfast and lunch were served, Yunjing also ate, but he didn't write a word about writing poems.
Under such circumstances, he couldn't help but scratch his head. How long had it been since he had felt a sense of urgency? Hey, I realized it today.
He knew in his heart that although poetry was dispensable for this exam, it would still affect part of the results. Even if it only affected a small amount, it was still an important matter with more than 100,000 candidates.
This is already the last day of the exam, and it will end in less than half a day, but as soon as I plan to write a poem about the clouds and scenery, I feel a little confused
Gradually, the sky became cloudy and it looked like it was going to rain.
Under such circumstances, many people in various places in Dali Capital looked up at the sky with astonished faces. Why is it that it is going to rain?
Xia Ziyang was drinking tea with Old Master Huang, and the eldest princess Xia Ziyue was accompanying her.
Xia Ziyue, who kept pouring tea, looked up at the sky with a smile on her lips, then continued to pour tea with her head lowered.
Xia Ziyang hesitated to hear Old Master Huang and said with some confusion: "Old Master Huang, why did the weather suddenly change?"
"It's not what you think. It has nothing to do with Xiao Jing. It's just an imperial examination. His mood swings will not affect the changes in the celestial phenomena." Huang Changyang shook his head and smiled.
Xia Ziyue and her brother looked at each other. Since Mr. Huang said so, it seems that it really has nothing to do with the cloud scenery, but only natural weather changes.
"Sister Huang, is it a bit too much to add poetry composition questions to this imperial examination? After all, many people know that Yun Qing is not good at this. If he misunderstood and was deliberately targeting him" Xia Ziyue hesitated for a moment. Tangled.
Yes, it was Xia Ziyue who proposed the topic of poetry in the imperial examination this time. Of course, she was just making a suggestion. Whether or not to adopt it depends on the ministers. Even if she is classified as the eldest princess, she cannot directly intervene in the imperial examination. Such a big deal.
In the end, Huang Changyang nodded and carried it out. He had no other intention. The main reason was that there had been no poetry examination questions for many years. It was just to stimulate the poetry culture of Dali, in case a few famous poems were published in this imperial examination.
I really wasn¡¯t targeting Yunjing on purpose
??
Xia Ziyang thought the same thing.
If Huang Changyang didn't dare, he didn't have so many worries. He joked: "Xiaoyue suggested poetry test questions. I think Xiaojing is obviously implicated. After many years of waiting, the clay figurine still has a lot of resentment. You can't bear to trouble Li Qiu. He just took it out on his apprentice, it¡¯s great to be young.¡±
"I'm not, I didn't, Mr. Huang, don't say that," Xia Ziyue said quickly.
Huang Changyang smiled and asked, "Why are you so anxious?" Changing the topic: "In this case, other candidates should have a more balanced mind. After all, it is well known that Xiao Jing is not good at poetry."
"That's right, you have to consider the emotions of other candidates," Xia Ziyang said with deep understanding.
From their point of view, we need to consider the overall situation. After all, Yunjing is so famous that it puts too much pressure on others. If the candidates can be given the opportunity to surpass Yunjing in other aspects, the candidates' mentality will be balanced. Some.
"I don't know if Xiaojing will bite the bullet and deal with it, or just give up on this question," Xia Ziyue looked in the direction of the examination room and said.
"Let's wait and see"
In the examination room, Yunjing held his chin in one hand and looked at the test questions in a daze, racking his brains and not knowing what to write. It seemed that the end of the exam was not far away.
The sky was cloudy for a while without rain, and gradually the clouds cleared and the fog dispersed, and the last meal of the imperial examination was also delivered.
A plate of side dishes, a bowl of soup and two pancakes are not rich or delicious, but they can make people full and enjoy the view of the clouds.Feeling the bitterness and bitterness of the bottom, I will read this article again, eh? "
While browsing Yunjing¡¯s article, Huang Changyang fell silent, and everyone¡¯s hearts froze, what do you mean by this? Is it good or bad? Can you give me a hint?
After a while, Huang Changyang put down Yun Jing's answer sheet with a calm expression, and muttered: "The words in his article are not gorgeous, but the content is deafening. This is the talent for governing the country, but because it is him, it is not It¡¯s not surprising, it¡¯s just the Jinshi imperial examination, Xiao Jingyou used too much force, it can be said that he killed a chicken with a sledgehammer"
At this point, he paused again: "Moreover, the content in this article may be a bit extreme in some aspects and does not agree with many people's ideas. However, I was deeply shocked after I pushed it aside. In short, the article is good. Article, there is no doubt about this, but if you want to implement it, you need to be cautious. Okay, I have said this, it is a worthwhile trip, go and rest."
After saying that, Huang Changyang nodded to everyone and left, and he would no longer participate in the next thing.
After he left, everyone present looked at each other and then swarmed towards Yun Jing's answer sheet. Even Xia Ziyang didn't care about the image of the emperor at this moment. Xia Tao saw this and smiled helplessly in return. It was really crowded. Don't go in.
Watching Yun Jing's answer sheet, his poems were put aside when they looked at it. Huang Lao dared to say anything again. They really dared not say anything. The praise was too fake.
And when they saw Yun Jing¡¯s article, some people actually made a sound of air-conditioning, especially the content about the popularization of education. Although Yun Jing used his words as euphemistically as possible, it still impacted the current education system. The relationship is too big.
However, Mr. Huang had already set the tone before, and people did not dare to express their opinions rashly. At the same time, they also understood that only Yunjing dared to make such remarks in the imperial examination. Let's try someone else!
The atmosphere was a little weird for a while.
Soon after, I don¡¯t know who broke the silence. He never mentioned the question of Yunjing¡¯s examination papers, but said: ¡°Your Majesty, since the first-ranked Jinshi has come out, please let your Majesty decide the top three.¡±
It stands to reason that the first-level Jinshi will be confirmed after meeting the emperor during the palace examination, but the fact is that it has been decided before then, and the palace examination is just a process.
Now everyone is paying attention to whether Xia Ziyang will determine who is in the top three. After all, Yun Jing's name is too eye-catching among these 100 people. How will His Majesty decide?
