Chapter 4 The New Boy Says
"My surname is Ji, my name is Ze, and my name is Runmin. I'm a scholar of Dongge University." After introducing the prince and princess, the old man introduced himself, and then introduced another old man sitting side by side with him: "This master's surname is Li, whose name is Tao, whose style name is Shanmou, is a scholar of the Imperial Academy."

Dongge University Bachelor and Hanlin Attendant Bachelor are both imperial court officials, and they are all teachers in Mingde Hall, which specializes in teaching the descendants of the royal family.

"Master Ji! Master Li!"

The teenagers followed Jize's introduction and greeted politely, but they frequently glanced at the princes and princesses behind the two old men above.

The eldest prince didn't come at all, but four, five, six, seven princes and the second princess, Princess Zhiling, came.

Fu Xuechen was also quietly observing the princes and Princess Zhiling. The fourth prince gave people an unusually calm appearance, even cold and alienated, with a very cool appearance, while the fifth prince was much gentler, with a sense of dignity in his gentleness. gas.

The sixth prince is a little more gentle than the fourth prince, and a little more agile than the fifth prince, and he has a friendly smile. His eyes roll more than the previous two princes, and his gaze is on the young people. come and go.

The Seventh Prince looked like he wanted to move but didn't dare to move, he bit his lower lip slightly, blinking his eyes again and again.

Princess Zhiling was a little timid, her eyes were often on her feet, and occasionally she raised her eyes to quickly glance at the young man in the palace, and looked expectantly at the young girls in the palace.

Fu Xuechen's first impression of the sixth prince was quite good, his appearance was considered the highest among the several princes.

Followed by the fourth and fifth princes, their dispositions seem to be the most approachable. If you don't know anything else about being his companion, at least you don't have to worry about being ignored by him.

The sixth prince Yoon Zuo also looked at Fu Xuechen more after several rounds of scrutiny.

I have long heard that Fu Yuchen is outstanding in appearance, and he is well-known as a beautiful boy in Guozixue. I saw him today, and he really deserves his reputation, but I heard that his talents are not very good, and he is not worthy of his appearance.

After Jize made the introduction, he immediately beckoned the little eunuch to come in, holding a stack of papers, and began to distribute them one by one.

"This essay test is intended to test the knowledge level of everyone and the ambition of everyone, so there are only three questions, and the time is limited to one hour. The scores will be scored on the spot. The top 25 for men, the top four for women, and the rest. Those who are eliminated!"

Fu Xuechen looked at the number of teenagers in the field, about fifty, and more than half of them were eliminated in a literary test, which is a very high probability of elimination.

After distributing the papers, Jize waved again. The two young eunuchs came forward with scrolls in their hands. Under Jize's signal, they unrolled the scrolls from left to right and hung them on the pillars in front of the hall. The scrolls are very large. It turned out to be about three feet by four feet square, and the topic of the essay test was written in black on a white background.

On the left is the word "Spring", and on the right is the word "Youth".

"Just after the vernal equinox, I will take spring as the theme and chant a poem, five characters or seven rhythms, and let's try everyone's ingenuity!"

Jize loudly announced the test questions: "I will also use the topic of 'Youth' as ​​'Youth Talk', what should I do as a teenager? You can express your own opinions and observe your mind. Alright, let's start answering the questions."

Oh tut!This is much simpler than the various exams for the high school entrance examination and college entrance examination in later generations!
Fu Xuechen's mind turned for a while, and several poems about "spring" came up. Among them, the most straightforward and easy to understand, the words and sentences are so simple that even an old woman can understand, it is Meng Haoran's "Spring Dawn", which can completely read without saying a word. It was used directly instead.

As for "Youth Talk", Liang Qichao's "Young China Talk" was the first to come up. Fu Xuechen couldn't memorize Liang Qichao's original text verbatim, but because he also sang the song with the same title, the most important ones I remember the sentence clearly.

Some teenagers in the field started to scratch their heads and ears, some were deep in thought, and some looked around furtively, fidgeting and trying to cheat. A few of them with gentle faces had already spread out their pens and paper, and answered slowly.

Fu Xuechen thought that Xie Yucheng, his opponent in the essay test, was a well-known figure in Guozixue who was praised by many people for his talents, so he felt that he could not be careless, so he simply did not think too much, and directly copied Meng Haoran's "Spring Dawn" five-character poem into the poem under the title.

In Young China Theory, many of the more esoteric words were omitted, and only the most essential and straightforward sentences were taken to form a very short essay.

Fortunately, at the beginning of Darong's founding of the country, the literary arts had not yet flourished. Many of the children's parents here were generals on horseback, and they themselves were still young. The level is enough to cope with it.

Even for calligraphy, she has inherited the muscle memory of her original body, and she has practiced frequently in the past six months, so she can write well, and she is not worried about being shy.

An hour passed quickly, and no one handed in the papers in advance.

Jize shouted loudly: "Stop writing! Close the paper—"

There were several wailing sounds in the field, but some people still failed to answer these two simple questions.

The little eunuch got up from the back seat, quickly moved forward to collect the scrolls, and quickly collected them all, and put them in front of the first two masters with both hands.

The two masters also had tables and pens and inks in front of them. Li Tao picked up the first answer sheet, picked up the ink brush on the table, read it roughly, drew out his judgments, and handed it to Jize. Jize read it and drew it with the ink pen too. Two strokes, announced loudly in court: "Wang Jialian! Poetry is inferior, theory is inferior, and we will be eliminated!"

So efficient!Fu Xuechen glanced at the teenagers with different expressions around him, and suddenly felt full of interest.

The two masters graded the papers very quickly, and it took no more than one minute to read each paper. From the perspective of grade evaluation, there are four grades: excellent, upper, medium, and lower. One of the two questions will be eliminated if it is judged as inferior. Only two questions above the middle level can be temporarily passed. The temporarily passed papers will be passed to the princes, and several princesses will accompany the candidates to read the answer sheets. Finally, after passing four papers, they will be sent to the princesses separately.

Fu Xuechen quickly listened to the announcement of the results of the two competitors. Cheng Defang was inferior, his poems were top-notch, and his theory was average. Xie Yucheng was even better, his poetry was excellent, and his theory was first-class. , and took out Wang Zang at the beginning.

Two more papers passed by, the attendant Li Tao suddenly focused his eyes slightly, and said softly "Huh", his eyes stayed on the next paper for a moment, and after grading, he quickly handed it to the professor Jize.

"Fu Yuchen..." Jize took the paper and read out the name on the paper. He also followed his gaze for a few seconds, and then praised the word "good" loudly: "Good poem! Good word! I can't think of you waiting for it." This talent can still be found in the middle school! Poetry is excellent! Discussion is excellent! Passed!"

Wow!In an instant, all the teenagers turned their heads and set their eyes on Fu Xuechen, with surprises, surprises, and disbeliefs.

Is that exaggerated?Fu Xuechen immediately felt that he seemed to have underestimated the power of famous ancient poems and essays.

After announcing the results, Jize was reluctant to immediately pass Fu Xuechen's paper to the princes behind him, and read aloud to the paper: "Spring! I don't wake up when I sleep in spring, I hear birds singing everywhere, the sound of wind and rain at night, how much do you know about flowers falling?" "Good poetry, good poetry!"

This time, even the princes above looked at Fu Xuechen together, as if she had become the target of public criticism in an instant.

Fu Xuechen was reflecting on whether he had acted a little too much, when he saw a thumb quietly handed over from beside him, Zhang Chuyang, who was seated next to him, couldn't help but praised in a low voice: "Yuchen! It's amazing! Mosquito bites everywhere, I'm so scared!" Why didn't I think of such a good sentence!"

Master Ji speaks with such an accent, but can you hear "smell the bird" as "mosquito bite"? !Fu Xuechen almost burst out laughing.

On the other hand, Jize continued to read Fu Xuechen's second sentence about youth: "The country's innovation is like a youth, the youth is like the rising sun, and the future of a youth is immeasurable. Therefore, the responsibility for the present lies entirely with my youth."

"Youth wise make the country wise, young rich make the country rich, young strong make the country strong, and young free make the country free. Therefore, young people should have young madness. The body is like mountains and rivers, and the heart is like the scorching sun. Be a pillar..."

"Good! Good hearted! Good ambition! Fu Yuchen, you are very good! Everyone in the room should encourage each other!" Jize repeatedly praised.

Alas!This is being named and praised and the article has been read!I also had it when I was in junior high school in my previous life.While thinking about it, Fu Xuechen hurriedly thanked Ji Zejili politely: "Thank you, Master Ji, for your compliment, Yuchen! The students are ashamed."

Jize smiled and nodded towards her, showing a kind of admiration for her.

Fu Xuechen's eyes moved to the sixth prince Yoon Zuo above him as if inadvertently, and Yoon Zuo was also looking back at her, his obsidian-like eyes seemed to have a tiny light, and the moment their eyes met, this pair of black The eyes blinked, and the tiny light flowed as if it came alive, as agile as a star.

Fu Xuechen blinked quickly, and silently passed the wink: Have you seen my excellence?Be sure to choose me when reading with you, choose me!
This kid is very brave!I don't know what fear is... The impression that Fu Yuchen, who was rumored in Yunzuo's mind, was eager to join in the fun but was afraid of taking responsibility, would take part in things, and run away to shirk responsibility when things happened, unknowingly wavered.

After Fu Xuechen, there are still a lot of papers waiting to be graded, but perhaps it is Zhuyu who is in the front, it is difficult to surpass, and no one behind has won the praise of Jize, and no one has even won an excellent evaluation.

After the literary test, the two masters left first, and the princes and Princess Zhiling also moved to the martial arts arena for the prince and princess to practice riding and archery first. The 25 temporarily promoted prince companion candidates and the four princess companion candidates Then follow behind under the guidance of the little eunuch, and the others who were eliminated on the spot can only be led out of the palace gate, and they will not mention it when they return home.

Among Fu Yuchen's two little friends, Guan Enming was also eliminated, and only Zhang Chuyang was lucky enough to advance to the bottom and continued to follow Fu Xuechen.

What's disturbing is that Fu Xuechen's two major rivals, Cheng Defang and Xie Yucheng, also successfully advanced. Among them, Cheng Defang's performance in the literary test was slightly better than that of Zhang Chuyang, and Xie Yucheng was even better. Cheng Defang is almost the same.

Next is the martial arts test. Fu Xuechen only knows how to ride a horse, but he is far from being good at it. He has practiced archery, but his accuracy is not good. How many.

However, according to Zhang Chuyang's muttering, martial arts tests are Cheng Defang's forte. As for Xie Yucheng, no one knows how good he is in riding and archery. We can only guess that he comes from a scholarly family, and his riding and archery skills may not be good.

Then her advantage is probably that Wen is stronger than Cheng Defang, riding and shooting is better than Xie Yucheng, and her ability is more comprehensive.

"Yuchen, don't worry!" Zhang Chuyang patted Fu Xuechen's chest in a vicious way: "I'll keep an eye on Cheng Defang for you, and he won't be able to match you!"
