Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World

Chapter 93: Trial

Songshan Academy and Qingxi Academy are old rivals. Even if they once had the same mountain leader, they inevitably became enemies because of their competition.

They competed for students, sponsorships, rankings in various competitions, and even more rankings in the imperial examinations, and finally they competed for everything.

In the past, Songshan Academy had royal support, but because of the popularity of the men’s and women’s schools, the two sides were evenly matched.

Now the women’s school of Qingxi Academy has been cancelled, and Lan Guifei doesn’t like Qingxi Academy, so it is now slightly weaker than Songshan Academy.

But the background of Qingxi Academy is there, and there are many people in Shilin who do not buy Lan Guifei tents, so Qingxi Academy can sometimes jump up and press Songshan Academy.

In the ten academies competitions, if Songshan Academy can win the top five times, Qingxi Academy can win four times, and the remaining time is the two academies tied for first place.

So seeing the students from the two giant academies were on the bar again, the people in the Juyuan immediately became excited and came over to watch happily.

There are also the little girls who came to enjoy the flowers on the outing, wearing curtain caps and watching from a distance, their eyes shining brightly at the young talents surrounded by them.

Gu Jingyun found a good place to sit down, and the two of them sat watching from a distance.

The students of the two academies both took a fancy to the only pavilion in the chrysanthemum garden, so they agreed to make a chrysanthemum poem together, each one wrote a poem, and gave it to others to comment, and whoever got the best would use the pavilion.

Gu Jingyun thought they were so naive, but Li Baolu sighed, “It’s really full of youth, but isn’t the pavilion occupied now, will they drive away the little girls in the pavilion after they win?”

Gu Jingyun was stunned for a moment, turned his head to glance at the pavilion, and then chuckled, “They will be happy to give up the pavilion.”

He sat cross-legged on the stone and smiled: “Let’s take a look at the poetic talents of the talented people in the capital.”

But they didn’t start for a long time because they couldn’t find anyone who could be a judge.

Now in Juyuan, apart from the students of their two academies, they are students of other academies, and some wives are here with their daughters, neither of which is suitable for judges.

In the end, he was still a red-clad boy who couldn’t stand the quarrel on both sides. He jumped on the stone and raised his arms and shouted, “Anyone who would like to be the referee? If you are not a student of the Beijing Academy and have a certain ability to appreciate, the referee needs more than eight people.”

Gu Jingyun raised his eyebrows and said, “Interesting.”

The boy in red standing on the stone also saw Gu Jingyun at a glance, there was no way, he was too beautiful, just sitting there casually attracted a lot of attention, if it wasn’t for the commotion on their side, this person would definitely be the focus .

He was sure that he had never seen this character in the capital.

The capital is said to be big but also small. If he was in the capital, he could not have heard of such a person, and the other party was wearing a Confucian shirt, obviously also a scholar.

The red-clothed boy jumped off the stone and walked to Gu Jingyun, clasped his fists and said, “Under Zheng Xu, I don’t know what Xiongtai is called, but I would like to be our referee.”

“Gu Jingyun, I wish.” Gu Jingyun still sat cross-legged on the stone and nodded to the red-clothed boy.

Everyone saw that although he had an extraordinary appearance, he was wearing an ordinary soapy white cloth, and they were slightly dissatisfied with his simple answer.

Zheng Xu didn’t care, and after getting his answer, he wandered through the crowd to find another referee.

But they are both scholars and appreciative. There are too few people who are not students of Jingcheng Academy, so Zheng Xu found only three people after searching for a long time, and even Gu Jingyun only had four.

The selection of    poems has always been the most difficult. Therefore, the more referees, the more fair the game will be. The two parties agreed that there must be more than eight referees, so Zheng Xu was a little embarrassed.

Gu Jingyun supported his chin with one hand to watch the excitement, Li Baolu poked him with his finger and said, “There are still three quarters of an hour before lunch time, we agreed to eat vegetarian food at Huguo Temple.”

Gu Jingyun immediately put away his leisurely attitude, and said to the red-clothed boy with a serious face: “You guys are just trying to decide the winners and losers quickly, one poem per person is too slow, and the poems are both majestic and graceful, as well as artistic conception. There will always be people who disagree with each other in terms of literary talent, and you still can’t find enough judges.”

“What do you think, Young Master Gu?”

“It’s better to have a simple test, solitary poetry, just about quick wit and literary talent.” Gu Jingyun said: “Bring a tube of bamboo sticks, paint one of them red, whichever team wins the red lottery will be an odd number, the remaining team will be the odd number. If it is an even number, after lining up the teams according to odd and even, the poems will be followed with the title of chrysanthemum. If anyone can’t make it within five breaths, the team will lose one point. The limit is one incense stick. The last team has the least negative points. One team wins.”

“How to define rhyme?”

“There is no limit to rhymes, as long as the sentences are unanimously approved by our four judges.”

This is a new way to play, and it’s very interesting. If nothing else, Poetry Solitaire always requires cooperation, but Odd and Even are enemies and can embarrass each other, which undoubtedly raises the difficulty to a level.

Although it is a simple poem, it also tests everyone’s quickness and accumulation.

Zheng Xu asked everyone, and everyone had no opinion. Someone asked Gu Jingyun, “What is the standard for your referee to pass?”

“One, it has to become poetry, and second, it has to write chrysanthemums.”

This standard is simple enough, everyone has no problem, and the waiting begins.

Zheng Xu and Shi Wei, headed by Qingxi Academy, came to the lottery and painted the bottom of a signature in red in the presence of everyone, and then threw it into the lottery and shook it up. Only then did they start to grab the lottery.

Zheng Xu’s luck today was exceptionally good, he only got the fifth stick and then got the red lottery.

He picked up his lips and smiled and stood directly in the first place. Shi Wei also simply chose a team member to stand in the second place. The two academies have been fighting for so many years, and both sides are very familiar with each other. The person standing either below him or above him.

Soon, the two teams lined up in a circle. Gu Jingyun took a pen and paper from them and handed it to Li Baolu, saying, “In order not to doubt our fairness, you should write down the poems they wrote.”

Another judge saw that everyone was ready, so he lit incense and the competition officially started.

Zheng Xu pursed his lips and smiled, and said, “It’s dark and light purple, and it’s mellow and yellow.”

The talented Qingxi Academy who was standing below him pondered for a moment and then replied: “May the Pan-Golden Parrot be promoted to the White Yutang.”

…

“Autumn chrysanthemum is beautiful, and dew is full of beauty.”

“Forget about worrying things, far away from me.”

“…” Songshan Academy student A opened his mouth, and after a while, he said, “Chrysanthemum, chrysanthemum is…”

“After the time has passed, Songshan Academy will lose one point, and the next person will continue.” Gu Jingyun interrupted his thoughts coldly.

Student A frowned in distress and looked at everyone eagerly.

Songshan Academy had its first negative score, and the situation began to escalate like never before.

After three rounds of   , the incense gradually burned out, Gu Jingyun pursed his lips, and his stomach was already a little hungry.

Almost at the moment when the incense burned out, Gu Jingyun raised his eyes and said, “The time has come, Qingxi Academy loses eight points, Songshan Academy loses six points, and Songshan Academy wins.”

The referee sitting next to Gu Jingyun was in a hurry when he heard Gu Jingyun’s sentence, and he was a little embarrassed for a while.

Gu Jingyun turned his head and nodded slightly to the referees who were sitting with him, and said, “Yun still has something to do, let’s go ahead.”

Li Baolu sorted out the poems she had written and handed them over to the judges. She smiled and said, “This is a record. If you have any doubts, you can read it. Some of the sentences are very interesting. Let’s have fun with everyone.”

The poems made in a hurry are amazing and brilliant, and naturally there are also peaceful and funny.

Because the requirements were not high at the beginning, as long as he met his two conditions, Gu Jingyun would all pass, so there are many interesting verses on it at this time.

Zheng Xu and Shi Wei saw that Gu Jingyun was leaving, so they hurried over, “Brother Gu, why are you leaving? You helped us host a game, we should thank you anyway.”

Gu Jingyun waved his hand indifferently and said, “I’m going to eat vegetarian food, you can play by yourself.”

Shi Wei smiled and said, “The vegetarian food at Huguo Temple is indeed very famous, but it is very difficult to eat the master craftsmanship without making an appointment. It just so happened that I booked a few more tables when I came, why don’t you stay and have fun with us?”

Gu Jingyun frowned slightly, and Shi Wei continued to smile and said: “I also ordered the most famous vegetarian chicken and Thousand-hand Buddha in Huguo Temple. The taste is unparalleled. Huguo Temple only makes eight servings a day. It is said that the queue is already lined up now. It’s November.”

Gu Jingyun said immediately: “Okay.”

Zheng Xu, who was a step slower, said hurriedly, “Brother Shi can’t be alone. Brother Gu was invited by me, so I should entertain them. I also ordered a vegetarian meal here, although there is no vegetarian chicken and thousand-hand Buddha, The food is also good…”

Shi Wei glanced at him and said, “Brother Zheng wants to invite Brother Gu after the fact, so why do you have to do it today? Brother Gu has already promised me, and Brother Zheng forced him to go at this time, didn’t Brother Gu break the contract? ?”

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Li Baolu stood behind and stabbed Gu Jingyun with his fingers, Gu Jingyun said with a calm expression: “Master Zheng, if there is a chance, we will meet again in a few days.”

Li Baolu didn’t hide her actions, so Zheng Xu and Shi Wei both saw it, and they looked at the little black girl behind Gu Jingyun.

Zheng Xu thought for a while and nodded and said, “If you take care of your brother, why don’t you leave the address, and I will visit you in person tomorrow.”

Thanks to Gu Jingyun for this competition, although he had found four referees in total, Gu Jingyun was the only one who used the most. Besides, judging from this short stick of incense, Gu Jingyun was not weak and very talented. Such a person It would be a waste not to be involved in the academy and contribute to the academy’s admission rate for the imperial examinations.

It’s a pity that he was a step behind and let Qingxi Academy take the lead, but it didn’t matter, Songshan Academy had an advantage over Qingxi Academy in the imperial examinations, Gu Jingyun knew which academy to choose as long as he wasn’t stupid.

Shi Wei was content to invite the guests, and people from Qingxi Academy rushed up and took Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu to the side hall.

There is a place to eat vegetarian food. Shi Wei booked two tables in total, which happened to occupy a large box.

Everyone understood Shi Wei’s intention. Gu Jingyun does not belong to any academy in the capital, so they can bring people to their academy and contribute to the future admission rate of Qingxi Academy.
