Chapter 247: The Third Imperial Examination: Palace Examination
The candidates were frightened and cried. Fortunately, Mr. Chu was tolerant and did not blame anyone. He just said that no one should commit the crime again. If he does it again, he will be executed without a doubt.
As soon as they heard that they would definitely be killed, four of the remaining five people immediately abstained. Just kidding, according to the specifications of this exam, the success rate is too low, and if you are not careful, your head will fall to the ground. No one wants to lose their own.
bet your life
Chu Tian was the only one who did not shrink back. It was not that Chu Tian was not afraid of death. Chu Tian had his own ideas. Chu Tian knew that the imperial examination was to select the top three. No matter how unexpected it was, at least one person had to be selected. Chu Tian believed that
, as long as his answer is not too bad, he should not be punished, but he still has a chance to become the number one scholar. As the saying goes, wealth can be found in danger, Chu Tian will also take a gamble this time.
When Chu Jun saw those four people abstaining from voting, he was definitely disappointed. The Chu State was in a stage of rapid development after the war, and the country was in great need of talents. If the people selected in this imperial examination were all useless people, then the Chu State's
The future must be gloomy
However, when Chu Jun saw that there was still one person who had not abstained, he was somewhat relieved. Regardless of Chu Tian's literary talent, at least his courage was appreciated by Chu Jun.
Chu Jun glanced at Chu Tian meaningfully, and then said: "Who is Lei Feng? Well! You are really young and promising. Your courage is very admirable to me, but this is an imperial examination. If you want to pass the test of me, just a little
Literary talent is not enough.”
Chu Tian nodded, indicating that he agreed with Chu Jun's statement, but Eunuch Long secretly laughed secretly at this time. The deputy examiner paid so much tribute to him last night, and he should take some practical actions to show it.
Chu Jun didn't say any more nonsense. After thinking about it, he said: "Okay! I am going to ask the question of heroes, and Lei Feng, you will answer it!"
"Hero?" Chu Tian was stunned for a moment, and secretly scolded Chu Jun in his heart. The previous topics on landscape and winter were so simple, but why did it become so difficult when he came here? The topic on hero is really ridiculous.
It’s so abstract!
Seeing Chu Tian in a daze, Eunuch Long immediately shouted: "How dare you, Your Majesty asked you to start, but you still dare to sit still. You just don't take His Majesty seriously!"
Only then did Chu Tian react. He quickly stood up and took a step forward. Chu Tian didn't know how to write a poem about the hero. In addition, being shouted at by Eunuch Long, Chu Tian's heart became even more confused.
I don't know how to answer at all
Chu Tian continued to take the second step, still without any clue. Then he took the third step, the fourth step, and until he took the sixth step, Chu Tian still had no idea at all.
Chu Tian didn't dare to take the seventh step, because Cao Pi forced Cao Zhi to write the seven-step poem. If he couldn't write it within seven steps, he would die. Chu Tian was afraid that he couldn't answer it, and he would die as well.
At this time, Eunuch Long saw that Chu Tian had no intention of taking the seventh step. He smiled coldly and immediately said, "Why haven't you taken the seventh step yet? Are you trying to delay time like this?"
Chu Tian suddenly had an idea and suddenly said: "I dare to ask this father-in-law. The Holy Father only said that I should compose a poem within seven steps, but he did not say that I should take seven steps in a row. As long as I don't walk out.
Seven steps, can you say that I committed a foul?"
"You" Eunuch Long was asked by Chu Tian's words. He didn't know what to say for a moment. Just when he was about to say something, Chu Tian immediately said: "Eunuch, please think carefully before speaking. If you are
If you say what I said is wrong, you are also saying that the Holy One said something wrong. As a slave, you dare to say that your master said something wrong. What does that mean? My father-in-law must know better than me!"
"You" Eunuch Long was so angry that he didn't dare to say anything, let alone say that Chu Tian was wrong.
When Chu Tian saw Eunuch Long's deflated appearance, he couldn't stop laughing. It was such a shame that a human demon dared to target him. He was so impatient!
When others heard Chu Tian's words, they were filled with contempt. How could a person be so mean? Isn't it obvious that a poem in seven steps must be composed within seven consecutive steps? Although it is not stated explicitly, this is called latent.
Rules! You don’t need to say them!
Chu Jun did not make any remarks, nor was he dissatisfied with Chu Tian's words and deeds. Instead, he became a little interested in Chu Tian and wanted to continue to see what other tricks Chu Tian could play.
Chu Tian glanced at Chu Jun, and when he saw the faint smile hanging on Chu Jun's lips, Chu Tian let out a sigh of relief.
Without the time limit, the pressure in Chu Tian's heart was not so great. Once he relaxed, his thoughts were like a spring, out of control.
Chu Tian organized his thoughts and immediately chanted: "Strengthening the mountain and overwhelming the world"
But as soon as he chanted a sentence, Eunuch Long recognized that it was Xiang Yu's "Gaixia Song". To say that "Gaixia Song" is indeed a heroic work, but it has been stated before that you cannot quote other people's poems, otherwise it will be a deception.
So Eunuch Long seized the opportunity and immediately criticized Chu Tian: "Bold, you are really ungrateful. The Holy One just said before that you should not quote the verses of the predecessors. You dare to do it again now. You are really tired of living!"
Seeing that Eunuch Long wanted to call for help and capture Chu Tian, Chu Jun waved his hand and said: "Eunuch Long, don't be anxious, let Lei Feng finish the poem and see if it is plagiarized!"
Chu Tian glanced at Eunuch Long lightly and thought to himself, it seems that this eunuch is really competing with him.
Chu Tian calmed down, forced himself not to be distracted, and continued to sing: "The energy is overwhelming\\mountain\\xi\\the world is overwhelming, the times are unfavorable\\xi\\no\\diarrhea you don't have diarrhea\\I\\diarrhea
, I don’t have diarrhea\\diarrhea\\dry\\(\\indicates a pause in tone)”
"This" After Chu Tian's poem was recited, Chu Jun was speechless. This person was too wretched. He asked him to write heroic poems, so why did he write all the shit poems?
Chu Jun was puzzled and asked: "Holy Lei Feng, I want to ask you. I clearly asked you to take heroes as the topic. Why do you write all about that aspect? I hope you can give a reasonable explanation."
Facing Chu Jun's question, Chu Tian didn't show any nervousness at all, and asked in a calm tone: "I dare to ask the sage, is Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, a hero?"
Chu Jun nodded without thinking, and Chu Tian immediately smiled and explained: "That's right, the Holy Master just asked me to write a poem with the title of hero, and the first sentence I borrowed from "Gaixia Song" is also
I just want to express that this poem was written for the overlord Xiang Yu, but even heroes have to poop. The following poem describes how heroes poop, which is no different from the title of the hero of the Holy Spirit."
"What a beast!!!" After hearing Chu Tian's explanation, the other six candidates all burst into laughter.
