Sheng Chong Jinghua: There is room for the legitimate daughter of the miracle doctor

Chapter 60 Tied for First Place
This competition is voluntary. Anyone who wants to participate can just raise their hand.

Since Huo Jiuge proposed the competition, no matter whether she raised her hand or not, everyone agreed that she would participate. In order to defeat her in front of others, Huo Qingshang would naturally participate. The remaining noble ladies also joined in for fun. Raise your hand to sign up.

For a time, the originally boring Qujiang Banquet became lively. After receiving paper, ink, pen and inkstone, and with the order of the examiner, the competition officially began. They had time to compose poems while holding incense. After burning the incense, you must stop writing regardless of whether it is completed or not.

People who did not participate in the competition became spectators. Everyone knew that the Huo family had Huo Qingshang, who was both talented and beautiful, so she attracted the attention of most people as soon as she appeared on the stage. However, when she saw the late arrival, After Huo Jiuge, many people looked away from her again.

Huo Qingshang inherited her beauty from her mother. She is exquisite and graceful. With such beauty, she is naturally conceited, which gives people a sense of distance. However, Huo Jiuge, who has been raised in Jinling, is different. She has a Jiangnan flavor. The beauty of the landscape and the outstanding temperament.

She sat upright in front of the table. On her coffee table was a pot of blooming peonies. From an outsider's perspective, her face was half-covered by the peonies. She was dressed in purple and sat in front of the peonies. There was something about her that said no. Looks great.

She was seen swiping her pen and splashing ink on the rice paper. She stopped writing after half a stick of incense. At this time, some people began to stop writing and hand in papers, but they did not expect that Huo Jiuge was faster than them.

Could it be that she had been prepared for a long time, so she deliberately changed the rules of the game? This idea was rejected by them as soon as it came up. People present were all people who had been in the officialdom for many years. Even if Huo Jiuge had the ability to shake the world, she would not It is possible to bribe so many people.

So what happened today can only be regarded as an episode. Even if she escapes other competitions, her ignorance will be revealed sooner or later.

Huo Qingshang wrote it almost at the same time. Although she didn't know what he wrote, Huo Qingshang was full of confidence in his work.

Huo Qingshang looked at Huo Jiuge. Her eyes could not hide her arrogance. Even though her status was not as good as hers and she was not Huo Xin's daughter, her father was also a third-rank official. Besides, in terms of talent and intelligence, Huo Jiuge was far behind. Not as good as yourself.

This time, she will be embarrassed!

After all the test papers were collected, Huo Qingwu couldn't wait and tentatively spoke: "Sister, I see that you not only wrote poems, but also drew pictures on them. What did you draw?"

Huo Qingwu also participated in this competition. Although her poetry was not as good as Huo Qingshang and other noble ladies, she was confident that she could still do better than Huo Jiuge. Even if she did not get a good ranking in the end, With Huo Jiuge at the bottom, she is not ashamed.

"You'll find out later." Huo Qingshang smiled slightly. She looked in the direction of Huo Jiuge with meaningful eyes.

Huo Qingwu curled her lips. She knew that Huo Qingshang's painting skills were first-class. Now he was painting on it to leave a good impression on the examiners. No. 1 must have not run away, but when she saw Huo Jiuge, she also She was still startled when she stopped writing so quickly.

She was a little nervous now, and looked at the examiners from time to time, hoping that they would be merciful and give her a good score. No matter what, she would be better than that little girl Huo Jiuge.

After a while, the examiner stood up and announced the final result: "A total of 28 people participated in this competition, including 19 men and nine women. For the sake of fairness, they were divided into two groups. Among them, Wei Zi ranked first in the men's group. Period, women's group." The examiner deliberately paused here for a while, looking a little confused, but the people below were still waiting for the answer. He finally chose to announce the results according to the results: "There are two people in the women's group, namely Huo Jiuge and Huo Qingshang."

It was surprising enough that the two of them tied for first place, but what was even more surprising was that Huo Jiuge could also take first place?

At this time, Xiao Chengji, who was in the chair, said, "What kind of poem is it that makes it so difficult for you all to criticize? Submit it to me and let me see it!"

Since just now, he has been observing Huo Jiuge. Although she is indeed much smarter than before, as the saying goes: it is easy to change the country, but it is hard to change the nature. He does not believe that she can change her character in such a short time. Here, what kind of good poems can I write, let alone win an award?So when he heard that Huo Jiuge and Huo Qingshang were ranked first, he immediately stood up and asked for a re-evaluation.

When Huo Qingshang was still feeling ashamed that she and Huo Jiuge were tied for first place, she suddenly felt comfortable when she heard the third prince say this. It seemed that not only did she dislike Huo Jiuge, but she also The third prince also hated her extremely.

As long as you think about it, winning or losing is no longer important.

She cast a proud look at Huo Jiuge and seemed to say: Look, everyone thinks that I am the number one. No matter how good your writing is, it will still be inferior to me in the eyes of outsiders.

Her self-righteous expression fell into Huo Jiuge's eyes, but he denied it with a roll of his eyes.

When everyone saw what Xiao Chengji said, they all said that it would be better to let the three of them above the chairman evaluate it again and then choose the final result.

The examiner had no choice but to present the two people's test papers and ask them to evaluate them again.

After King Rui took over the poems they had written, the first thing he looked at was Huo Qingshang's. In a short period of time, she not only wrote a poem, but even drew the camellia in the poem.

Let alone how good her poems are, just commenting on her painting skills can show how capable she is as a person.

Looking at the paintings and poems on it, he nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that he had already made up his mind about the candidate. For the sake of fairness, he still took a look at Huo Jiuge's poems, but the second he looked at her work, His brows frowned.

"What are you writing about? Mr. Cai asked you to use flowers as the theme. Where are your flowers?"

As soon as this statement came out, the people below immediately burst into laughter. It was unbelievable that she had been busy for so long and didn't even understand the question, so she just handed in the test paper in a daze.

Huo Jiuge did not lose her sense of proportion because of others' ridicule. She said: "Back to the prince, Mr. Cai asked us to write poems with flowers as the theme, but he did not ask us what kind of flowers we should use. So the Kunlun Mountains written by my daughter Snow chrysanthemum unique to this area."

"Even if you wrote about Snow Ju, I still think that the poem written by Miss Huo is better than yours." After her retort, Prince Rui felt that he couldn't save his face because of his writing, so he directly voted for him. Gave it to Huo Qingshang.

When it came time for Princess Rui to comment, she asked them both to explain the meaning of her poem.

A seven-character quatrain written by Huo Qingshang, with camellia as the theme, expresses her upright and lofty quality. Although she is a woman, she is as ambitious as a man. Coupled with her exquisite paintings, it is indeed for her. A lot of points were added.

What Huo Jiuge wrote was a five-character quatrain. Princess Rui looked at the handwriting on the test paper. Compared with her charming appearance, her handwriting was full of power. It was very different from ordinary women's hairpins and small regular script. Don't.
