Chapter 246: Three Questions on Recruiting Horses
A woman walked out of the inner hall, and the two maids moved a screen to block the front, and everyone could only vaguely see a woman with a graceful figure and a purple dress, but they couldn't see how she looked clearly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
However, judging from the contours of her face, she should be a big beauty, and she just hopes that there will be no pockmarks. Everyone knew that this was the princess, and they were suddenly much quieter, and they all wanted to show their polite side.
Ji Yang thought in his heart: In the original book, Princess Yinchuan is Li Qiushui's granddaughter, but Li Qiushui does not seem to have become the princess of Xixia here, but the plot in the movie, and she has established a pavilion at the end of the world.
For details, please see the movie version of "Dragon Babu", the plot is very different.
It's not the first time that such a plot has been inconsistent, and Zhang Wuji was like this before, and the hard worker Tuo in the movie version appeared. And it happened to be at the foot of Wudang Mountain, so that Zhang Wuji quickly practiced Jiuyang Divine Skill through this method.
"There are two levels in today's recruitment meeting, first the literature and then the martial arts, in order to test your ability." The beautiful maid said.
"Why doesn't the princess speak, we have to listen to the princess's voice." Prince Zongzan has a loud voice, he is a simple-minded man with developed limbs in the original book, and he is not much better here.
"First of all, there will be a literature competition, and then I will come up with three questions, and you can answer them on paper." The beautiful maid ignored him.
A team of palace maids came out and put away the tea sets on everyone's coffee table. Another team of palace maids came out with pen, ink, paper and inkstones, and placed them on everyone's coffee tables, just like exams.
Ji Yang also placed a pen, ink, paper and inkstone in front of him, and he didn't reach out to get the brush, because his calligraphy was very poor, almost unsightly, and even if he answered the question, most of them would be brushed down because of the word difference.
"The first question, today is August 15, please write a poem about the Mid-Autumn Festival." The beautiful maid said.
Prince Zongzan scratched his ears and cheeks, thought about it, and secretly called the samurai behind him to help him. However, the samurai behind him are also reckless men, where to come up with poetry, this kind of thing has always been the specialty of the Central Plains people.
Duan Zhengchun, Murong Fu and other people from the Central Plains were more confident, and after thinking about it, they all started writing. Because the written test has a time limit for incense, everyone has no time to elaborate and rely on the accumulation of literary talents.
Zhao Li looked at Ji Yang and said with a smile: "Why doesn't Master Ji use his pen, time is almost over." ”
Ji Yang was a little embarrassed in his heart, not to mention the brush words, even the fountain pen and pen he wrote very ordinary. Especially after going to college, Ji Yang hasn't touched a pen for a long time, and his words are really unsightly.
"Didn't you put pen to paper?" Ji Yang smiled.
"To tell you the truth, I haven't studied poetry and poetry since I was seven years old, and I think that a truly knowledgeable person is never a person who can compose poetry." Zhao Li smiled, and his words were quite disdainful of those literati and elegant guests.
"Who is that?" Ji Yang was curious, he found Zhao Li's thoughts quite interesting.
"To be proficient in politics is to be knowledgeable, to be proficient in law is to be knowledgeable, to be proficient in the art of war is to be knowledgeable, and to be proficient in agriculture is to be knowledge...... Only this bard is right, just a plaything. Zhao Lidao.
"I can't say that, if everyone only learns politics and law, the art of war and farming, then this world will be too boring. Although you don't like poetry, you have a time when you are bored, so do you want to have some fun to pass the time? Ji Yang smiled.
"That's why I said that poetry and poetry are just playthings." Zhao Lidao.
"I can hear that Zhao Gongzi has great ambitions and disdains playthings, but being able to play doesn't mean that he doesn't know what to do. When Su Shi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was a learned person, he could chant poems in the hall, and he could be a director in the court. Ji Yang said.
When thinking of Mid-Autumn Festival poems, people are most familiar with Su Shi's water tune song head. A sentence I hope that people will last a long time, and the thousands of miles of Gongchanjuan have touched many people, even those who don't understand poetry can hear a little taste.
Who knew that Zhao Li snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "Although Su Shi is erudite, his ideas are outdated and he doesn't know how to be flexible, and the kindness of a woman has no insight, so he has really learned for so many years in vain." ”
Ji Yang's expression moved, and he said: "Then I don't know, listening to what Your Excellency said, it seems that I know the ministers of the DPRK and China very well." He had already guessed Zhao Li's identity, so he was a little tentative in his words.
"Hearsay, a little bit of it." Zhao Li laughed dryly.
"Hehe, yes." Ji Yang turned his head back.
Because of Ji Yang's temptation, Zhao was quite suspicious, and secretly said Could it be that this person saw who I was? Because Ji Yang's subordinates were very strong, and Zhao Li couldn't figure out who he was, he was a little jealous.
In fear, Zhao Li stopped talking, so as not to expose anything again.
After a stick of incense, the beautiful maid said: "The second question, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, I naturally want to admire the moon, my princess is very curious, whether the moon has a moon palace, please write the answer on paper." ”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, this question is too child's play, answer yes or no? The Moon Palace is just a folk rumor, and if it is written or not, you can't go to the moon to confirm it.
However, there are many smart people among the crowd, and the topic of the secret path must have a special connotation. When it comes to the Moon Palace, of course, the story of Chang'e comes to mind, could it be that the princess is as lonely as Chang'e, and someone needs to explain her?
"Master Ji, don't you still use your pen?" After being silent for a while, Zhao Li couldn't help but ask, it seemed that he hadn't chatted so wantonly for a long time, and he had an urge to speak.
"It's not interesting, I'm just going to take a look with my friends." Ji Yang replied.
"I thought it would be interesting to give it a try, in case I was chosen by the princess." Zhao Li suddenly became interested, if he could marry the princess of Xixia, it would be of no small difference to him.
"Then forget it, if Princess Xixia looks ugly, won't I have to suffer a big loss." Ji Yang said with a smile.
"It's... It's a problem. Zhao Li also hesitated, if he picked a big trumpet flower, it would inevitably spoil the scenery. Thinking of this, he raised his head and looked at the screen carefully, trying to analyze the appearance of the princess of Xixia through the phantom of the screen.
During this period, the beautiful maid looked at Ji Yang and Zhao Li for a while, and seemed to wonder why the two of them didn't use their pens.
There are hundreds of people who are seeking relatives, the good and the bad are uneven, and Ji Yang is definitely the number one in terms of appearance, so the beautiful maid pays special attention. Seeing that Ji Yang had no intention of writing, the beautiful maid was quite displeased, and secretly said that this guy is too good at pretending to be garlic, and everyone is still playing tricks there.
As for Ji Yang's outfit, compared with those backward princes, it is not strange.
Even in the eyes of the beautiful maid, Ji Yang's clothes and hairstyle are quite good. At least it's much better and more energetic than those exotic hairstyles with a cape, or a round head, or a bald head, or a small braid.
"The third question, please draw a portrait of the princess in your mind." The time for a stick of incense came again, and the beautiful maid withdrew her gaze and glanced at everyone.
"Drawing, I'm good at this!" Prince Zongzan said happily, he didn't understand poetry and poetry at all, Chang'e ran to the moon he was not familiar with, and the only thing he could do was painting.
Everyone changed a piece of drawing paper, looked at the phantom shadow on the screen, savored its outline, and guessed its facial features and clothing. Seeing this, the beautiful maid couldn't help but shake her head slightly, and a hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes.
Everyone else ******** staring at the screen, so naturally they didn't notice the movements of the beautiful maid on one side. It just so happened that Ji Yang was not interested in the princess, so he secretly scored the beautiful palace maid on the stage, and inadvertently saw the subtle changes in the beautiful maid.
Ji Yang's heart moved: Draw the portrait of the princess in his mind, what is the meaning of this question? Look at the demeanor of the beautiful maid, they were disappointed before they painted her, obviously these people were wrong.
So what's wrong with them? Ji Yang happened to be bored, so he thought about it carefully.
Suddenly, Ji Yang's eyes moved, and he couldn't help but smile when he looked at the beautiful maid again. Ji Yang finally understood the true connotation of the third question, and also understood why the beautiful maid showed disappointed eyes.
Coincidentally, the beautiful maid also looked at Ji Yang, and the two looked at each other. Seeing the inexplicable smile on Ji Yang's face, the beautiful maid panicked, her cheeks were slightly red, and she had some indescribable expectations. (To be continued.) )
