There was no suspense to become the first in the first competition, Zhao Kang did not show any excitement.
In China, this preface to Prince Teng's Pavilion is known as the best parallel prose throughout the ages and has been recited for thousands of years.
That is a time-tested and handed down article!
It's just his leisurely look that looks arrogant to outsiders.
Everyone else who participated in the cultural gathering looked aggrieved. Damn it, you look a little excited!
If I had written this article, I would laugh out of my dreams. Why are you so calm?
Did you know that doing this will make us look like we have no experience in the world?
Listening to Gongsun Yunxiu read out the eight people who passed the first competition, Zhao Kang looked at Li Musen with a smile.
"Your Highness, of the 10 million, it seems that 2.5 million have already gone into the pockets of our national division. You should take it easy!"
Li Musen gritted his teeth: "There is no need for the Imperial Master to care, this is just the first competition, and you will know who will win!"
"Tsk tsk tsk, I just like people like you who won't shed tears until you see the coffin."
Zhao Kang laughed: "Then today I, Zhao Kang, will let everyone here have a good look at what the second item is, let's get started!"
Hearing Zhao Kang's arrogant tone, many people felt angry, especially Qi Jie and several other Zhou scholars who entered the second round.
One person couldn't help but say: "Zhao Guoshi, don't be too arrogant and complacent! We are not as good as you in writing articles, but we may not be sure what will happen next!"
I don’t know if it was intentional, but except for Zhao Kang, the seven people who entered the second round were all from Zhou.
Twenty people from Jingguo and Qi were eliminated.
The situation at this moment is like Zhao Kang fighting seven.
"Arrogance requires capital, and I just have it."
Zhao Kang sneered and glanced with contempt. Everyone in the Zhou Kingdom, who was looked down upon, felt strong in their hearts. No matter what else, just for this breath, he must be defeated in the second competition!
Lin Yong, who was presiding over the cultural gathering, looked at Zhao Kang and secretly hoped that the people on his side would be able to speak out.
If you really lose, the fun will be great.
"The second item in the literary meeting is a poem, titled Mountain. The time limit is quarter of an hour. Please write it down."
Just as Ye Hongxue and others thought, the original intention of this Four Kingdoms Cultural Conference was to target Zhao Kang and Qian Guo.
Therefore, after deciding to do this, Li Musen went through countless discussions with a group of ministers and everyone in the academy.
Only then did we come up with a final plan.
Last year, in the literary battle between Zhao Kang and Zhang Sheng, in the second essay competition, Zhao Kang was absent and Zhang Sheng won without a fight.
Therefore, no one knows how Zhao Kang wrote his article.
So Li Musen decided to rank the article first to test Zhao Kang.
What's a bit tragic is that he didn't expect to come up with the best parallel prose in history in just one try, which made the Second Prince feel very unhappy.
As for poetry, they also knew that Zhang Sheng, who was known as the invincible poet, lost to Zhao Kang.
And it is on the chrysanthemum poem that I am best at.
So Zhao Kang is obviously very good at writing poems, so he had to find a topic that would limit Zhao Kang to the greatest extent.
Everyone thought about it and finally decided to use mountains as the title, because there are really not many places where mountains can be written.
Either writing about the height of the mountain or the size of the mountain is nothing more than writing about majesty or majesty or rugged peaks, and finally using the mountain to express one's aspirations.
If we knew the question in advance and it was a limited question, would we still lose to you, Zhao Kang?
Why is it that the mountains you and Zhao Kang wrote are better than the mountains we write?
Therefore, Li Musen and others believed that they could defeat Zhao Kang in poetry.
Hell, even the judges are ours!
Why are you fighting with us?
Unless you write another preface to Prince Teng's Pavilion! Then I will obey you even if I don't agree with you!
Seeing that Zhao Kang did not write, Qi Jie and others sneered and started to write one after another.
In order to defeat Zhao Kang at this level, they racked their brains to study poetry during this period, and even learned from each other.
What I thought before was correct, Zhao Kang was fighting one against seven, and these seven people had prepared for more than a month in advance.
Ye Hongxue, Wu Guanhai and others also figured this out. Wu Guanhai whispered: "National Master, you have to be careful, these people may have united long ago."
Ye Hongxue was speechless. Her beautiful eyes looked at Zhao Kang with great trust. Writing a poem?
Even Zhang Sheng is not his opponent, how can these people defeat Zhao Kang now?
Ye Hongxue didn't believe it.
In fact, this is indeed the case. Zhao Kang is not writing now, he is just choosing which song to copy?
There are quite a few poems written about mountains.
Poet Li Taibai's The Difficult Road to Shu, Climbing Mount Lu, etc.
After all, this Qinglian Sword Immortal's life ambition, besides being an official, is to cultivate Taoism and seek immortality. He has visited many famous mountains and rivers.
Even Du Fu, the poet sage, was once dragged by this man to the deep mountains and old forests to find immortals to dig up fairy grass and refine elixirs.
Thinking of the poet Du Fu, Zhao Kang's lips curved into a smile and he glanced at the people of Zhou who were immersed in writing poems.
When it comes to writing about mountains, the song he has come up with now is enough to defeat everyone present!
Immediately, Zhao Kangti wrote the word "Wang Yue" in his pen.
After a quarter of an hour, everyone had stopped writing.
The eunuch was about to collect the poems, but he did not expect that Gongsun Yunxiu, who was the judge, stood up and walked directly to Zhao Kang. With a smile on the woman's face: "Master Zhao, can Yunxiu read it now?"
The second prince Li Musen was immediately dissatisfied and said: "What are you doing, Gongsun?"
You obviously think that Zhao Kang's poems and prose are better. Damn it, are you not from the Zhou Dynasty?
Wu Tianhu chuckled and said, "Your Highness, isn't this obvious? We all know the level of the other people in your Zhou Kingdom, Gongsun, so we want to see the poems written by this boy Zhao Kang first."
Gongsun Yunxiu did not refute, and seemed to acquiesce.
Zhao Kang casually picked up the paper and said nonchalantly: "Everyone, Gongsun, please excuse me."
Gongsun Yunxiu hurriedly took it and looked at it carefully, and was stunned when he saw it.
After reading the poem written by Zhao Kang, Wu Guanhai was completely speechless. At this moment, the fan leader completely admired Zhao Kang in his heart!
Because of Gongsun Yunxiu's actions, everyone was looking at the Academy Dean at this moment.
But he saw a look of horror flash in the woman's eyes, and then she bowed deeply to Zhao Kang.
This scene directly made everyone in Zhou Kingdom dumbfounded.
As the dean of the academy, Gongsun Yunxiu is recognized as the most knowledgeable person in the Zhou Kingdom and a leader in the literary world!
And now, their literary leader is actually bowing to Zhao Kang!
Qi Jie and others suddenly panicked, couldn't they!
At this time, Gongsun Yunxiu spoke.
"Master Zhao is an invincible poet!"
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and Li Musen stood up excitedly: "This is impossible! What did this guy write! Let me see!"
