Chapter 46 The Prince of the Family & the Violent King (10)

It didn't take long before the capital gathered scholars from all over the country rushing for the exam.The inns with better conditions in the capital are already full of people.

Every time you try it, it is a good time for various restaurants in the capital to make a fortune.

In order to attract these candidates to go to their restaurants for consumption, each restaurant has exhausted their minds and tried all kinds of gimmicks to attract customers. Among them, the poetry competition held by Di Fan Restaurant is the most eye-catching.

Generally, the contestants in the Poetry Competition are scholars who are studying, but Di Fan Restaurant is different. Every time it holds a poetry competition, it can invite many famous ladies to participate or watch the competition.

Daqi folk customs are open, and there is a lot of respect for women's reading. If there is a lady who is proficient in everything, it is a good girl Wanjiaqiu.

Since the participating ladies dare to end the competition, they must have some confidence in their own talents, so they can have the confidence to compete with these scholars.

In order to prove their talents in front of these famous ladies, the scholars who participate in the poetry competition will perform with all their strength. After all, if one accidentally loses to a lady from a famous family, it will not only be a shameful thing , and even be questioned about their talent and learning ability.

But this year, the Poetry Competition organized by Di Fan Restaurant turned out to be a new trick.

The owner of the restaurant distributed a blue wooden stick and a pink wooden stick to each table of customers who consumed in their own restaurant, saying that it was for the people in the capital to vote for themselves to decide which scholar or lady was eligible to participate in the poetry competition.

The competition system of the poetry competition has changed from the original individual competition to a three-round team competition. The scholar team or the lady team has to win two rounds to be considered a victory.

If the scholar team wins, each of the three participating scholars will have a chance to talk face-to-face with the great scholars of the dynasty.And if the girl team wins, the three girls will each get a Rouge Shop in a prosperous area of ​​the capital.

As soon as the competition rules came out, the people in the entire capital found it quite interesting.

Now, before Di Fan restaurant opens every day, the queue goes to the end of the street.Most of the partygoers went for the voting wooden sign.

Many casinos also open for people to bet on the candidates of the two teams.

With much anticipation, finally came the day when the voting results were announced.

As soon as the owner of Di Fan Restaurant posted the voting results, a crowd of people gathered around.

Shen Rou naturally knew about the grand ceremony of this fight at Di Fan Restaurant.

Different from the full expectations of other ladies, Shen Rou wished that she hadn't been shortlisted.Ever since she found out about the existence of Fei Wu, she has been fidgeting all the time, with an ominous premonition in her heart.

As soon as Prince Wei returned to the mansion, he hurriedly found Shen Rou. He was full of joy and said excitedly, "Princess, you have entered the competition."

Shen Rou originally wanted to use the fact that she was already a married woman and it was difficult to show her face outside as an excuse for refusing to participate.

Before she opened her mouth to evade, she heard Prince Wei continue to say: "My concubine told me about this on purpose two days ago, telling you that if you are shortlisted, you must try to win as much as possible. We can just use this poetry competition to attract Those scholars who are proud of their talents."

Shen Rou opened her mouth, seeing that Prince Wei was so excited, she swallowed back her refusal.

Ever since the list of contestants was announced, everyone in the capital has speculated about the outcome of the competition.

After some scholars got drunk in a restaurant, they said with certainty that the team of scholars selected by them would definitely win. Women only know how to dress up all day long. How could they win in poetry competitions? .

His words happened to be heard by a lady from a famous family who passed by, and the lady wrote a poem on the spot, ironically saying that although some people are short-sighted and have little talent, they are good at speaking bitter words.

After what the scholar said spread, it soon aroused the dissatisfaction of the ladies in the capital.

They found the two daughters who had been selected for the competition one after another, so they were bound to fight for their daughters.Even when Shen Rou went out to socialize, there were wives who were aggrieved, so Shen Rou would definitely give those scholars who underestimated women a serious look at them in this poetry competition.

The time soon came to the day of the Poetry Competition.

The owner of Di Fan Restaurant specially set up a poetry fighting arena in the open space in the middle of the restaurant.

Before the contestants even played, many onlookers had already gathered in the restaurant.

Qin Yu and Ning Chen were also in Di Fan Restaurant today, they were sitting in the private room on the second floor, watching the bustling scene downstairs.

It has to be said that the contestants selected by voting are indeed very talented.

The two parties in the first round of fighting poetry were the young master of a small family in the capital and a talented young lady.

Originally, both sides had their own winners and losers. In the last round, the lady lost the round because she did not complete the poem within the stipulated time.

The results of the second round of the competition were soon announced, and another lady won the second round with an absolute advantage.

Now, the result of the competition has also fallen into a stalemate. The two sides are tied, and the result of the third round will determine the outcome of this Poetry Competition.

And this third round is exactly the round that the people and scholars in the capital are paying close attention to.

The Jiangnan area has always been rich in great Confucianism, and Zheng Shipang, the scholar of the third round this time, is the grandson of a great Confucian in Jiangnan.Zheng Shifeng has been hailed as a child prodigy since he was a child, and he has won the true biography of his grandfather in poetry and songs.

As for Shen Rou, the number one talented woman in Daqi, before marrying into Prince Wei's mansion, those well-known poems spread throughout Daqi.

Therefore, the duel between these two people can be called a needle-point confrontation, which is particularly interesting.

The two have their own victories, and finally reached the last round to determine the outcome.

Both the contestants on the stage and the audience below became nervous at this moment.

The two ladies participating in the competition and the daughters who were watching the competition in the private room upstairs secretly prayed for Shen Rou, hoping that she could defeat Zheng Shifeng and fight for their women. Let's see if they dare to say that women are not as good as men in the future .

But many scholars in the audience all hope that Zheng Shifeng can play chess better than Shen Rou.After all, most of them bet their treasure on Zheng Shifeng.

Besides, if these three scholars lost to a woman in the end, wouldn't it be a disgrace to them as great scholars.How can a majestic man lose to these weak women in poetry.

The owner of Di Fan Restaurant, who hosts the Poetry Competition, announced the topic of the last round: Bamboo.

When Shen Rou saw the topic of bamboo, she immediately remembered that in her previous life, as a student of the Faculty of Arts, the teacher had shared Wang Anshi's masterpiece about bamboo with them in class.

She picked up the brush and quickly copied the poem that came to mind on the white rice paper.

Before Shen Rou finished writing, Zheng Shifeng submitted his poem to the judges of the Poetry Competition.

The judges of this poetry competition are two great Confucian scholars in the capital and the dean of the White Horse Academy in the capital.The owner of Di Fan Restaurant didn't know what method they used, but the judges they invited were all these big shots.

When the judges saw the poem submitted by Zheng Shifeng, they looked at him with praise and nodded repeatedly.

Seeing the reaction of the judges, Zheng Shifeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that the hope of winning this competition is relatively high.

After Shen Rou finished writing the poem, she asked the maid beside her to present the poem.

When one of the judges saw the poem, he couldn't help but patted the table: "Good poem!"

The dean of White Horse Academy stroked his snow-white beard: "From this poem, we can see that Princess Wei's character is tenacious and noble. It's a good sentence, 'People are pity and straightforward, but they are born thin, and they promise to be tall and strong when they are old.'."

Zheng Shifeng frowned when he heard the sentence recited by the dean of White Horse Academy.

The results of the three judges were announced soon, and they all agreed that Shen Rou's poems were far better than Zheng Shifeng, and the final result of this poetry competition was that Shen Rou's lady team won.

Hearing that Shen Rou had won, the famous ladies in the private room on the second floor were all very happy. This time, Princess Wei has saved a lot of face for them girls.

Prince Wei sat in the private room on the second floor, looking affectionately at Shen Rou downstairs who was wearing a veil to cover her face. His princess really deserves to be the most talented woman in Daqi.

At the poetry competition, the three judges were exchanging their views on her poems with Shen Rou.

Hearing that the three judges were full of praise for the poem, Shen Rou's face hidden under the veil couldn't help evoking a happy smile.

She looked proud and said with a smile on her face: "The three of you should not be so praised. This poem is just a clumsy composition I made on the spot just now. When I go back later, I have to polish the words of this poem to make it more perfect." It's good."

In order to show fairness, the owner of Di Fan Restaurant ordered his servant to post both of their last works on the stage.

When Shen Rou's poem was posted, everyone applauded and applauded, and someone took out a pen and paper to copy it down on the spot.

But Zheng Shifeng and the rest of the Jiangnan scholars changed their expressions after seeing Shen Rou's poems.

A Jiangnan scholar approached Zheng Shifeng and asked in a low voice, "Brother Zheng, do you think this poem looks too familiar?"

Zheng Shifeng said with a cold face: "You can tell which is right and which is wrong, just ask."

Seeing that Shen Rou was about to step down and leave, Zheng Shifeng hurriedly called out to stop her: "Princess Wei, please stay still. Xiaosheng has some questions and wants to ask you a question or two."

Shen Rou thought that he was going to ask her about poetry, so she smiled and nodded: "Please tell me."

Zheng Shifeng cupped his hands and asked, "May I ask Princess Wei if she knows Mr. Feikou?"

When Shen Rou heard the name, she thought of Feiwu who took out the cement formula, but she had never heard of the name Feikou.

Shen Rou shook her head, and replied, "I've never heard of this gentleman."

Zheng Shifeng's expression froze, and he continued to ask: "Just now, Wansheng heard that Wangfei told several adults that this poem was written by Wangfei on the spot. Is this true?"

Shen Rou's heart suddenly skipped a beat, with an ominous premonition.But she did say this herself just now, and now she would appear guilty if she said it back, so she could only grit her teeth and nod to admit that she had indeed said these words.
