Chapter 372: The Third Game
After Han Bingqing, there were several people from the north and south who came to the stage to answer. You Su Wen took the lead, and they were obviously more open than the previous ones, and a spark of wisdom burst out from time to time.
In the face of their wonderful performance, the onlookers in the audience gave a warm response without hesitation. With the support of the audience, the remaining talents performed more and more dazzlingly. In this way, the enthusiasm of the onlookers in the audience rose again, almost pushing the atmosphere of the scene to another peak after Su Wen's appearance.
Seeing the changes in the scene, the emperor suddenly turned his head to Hong Qian and smiled: "Hong Aiqing, do you think these boys are unusually lucky today?" Needless to say, at least the performance is much better than the previous ones. ”
Hearing him say this, Hong Qian immediately replied with a smile on his face: "Your Majesty, even you have spoken, how can their luck be bad today?" These boys were not only stained with Su Wen's light, but they were lucky enough to avoid the pressure brought by Su Wen, so they could have such a dazzling performance. To say that they were lucky, is really true. ”
Seeing that Hong Qian expressed his approval, the emperor immediately smiled and answered: "Hong Aiqing, what you said is extremely true. They're lucky, and it's in the order in which they play. If it's too early, you won't be able to let go of your thinking, and if it's a little later, it's easy to be overwhelmed by Su Wen. ”
When Hong Qian heard this, he immediately echoed with a smile: "Your Majesty, you are right. These boys are lucky, in fact, the main reason is that they are arranged after Miss Han. With Miss Han here, the negative effects of Su Wen before have been diluted a lot, but the good head has not been affected much. These two reasons are combined to make them have the wonderful performance they just had. ”
Listened to Hong Qian's analysis. The emperor immediately clapped his hands and laughed: "Yes, that's the truth." Hong Aiqing is worthy of being my most trusted courtier, and she can see the doorway thoroughly at a glance. ”
Hearing his words, Hong Qian immediately showed a speechless expression. In his opinion, it is really not too difficult to see the doorway in this matter. As long as you think about it carefully, you can summarize the reasons for the wonderful performance of the following few lifts. Don't say it's him, even if you change the experience and shortcomings, you can see these ways nine times out of ten.
While the two were chatting, the second game in the ring was nearing its end. In this round of competition. The North and the South are tied. I just don't know how the five judges will decide?
After some careful deliberation, the five judges made a final verdict. They named the names of the outstanding performers from the north and south and placed them directly in front of the onlookers. They used this method to give the onlookers an intuitive result. The number of people who answered well was about the same between the North and the South. As a result, the second game was awarded a draw.
In the face of such a ruling. Both the north and the south expressed their acceptance. One comes. Such a result is indeed consistent with the facts; Second, the result of the draw retains some hope for both sides.
In a best-of-three format, the Southern Juzi now leads the Northern Juzi by a game and a half. For them. Regardless of the performance in the third game, at least it is guaranteed that you will not lose. On the contrary, for the northern juzi, the truth is much more cruel. Even if they won the third game in a landslide, they could only claim a draw.
There is no doubt that the situation is quite clear at this point in the fight between the two sides. Regardless of the situation in the third game, the fact that the northern lifter is not as good as the southern lifter has been doomed, and it is impossible to deny it.
Seeing the situation on the field clearly, the emperor immediately smiled and said to Hong Qian: "Hong Aiqing, you can breathe a sigh of relief now." Regardless of whether the Southern Juzi wins or loses in the third game, your reputation has finally been saved. When the northern rebellion is gone, I will immediately order you to be released. Staying in the prison for so long is really wronged by you. ”
When Hong Qian heard this, he didn't have the slightest joy on his face, but replied solemnly: "Your Majesty, your estimate is too optimistic. In the opinion of the ministers, even if the northern Juzi loses, he may not be willingly disbanded in the end. ”
Hearing his worries, the emperor immediately asked with a solemn face, "Hong Aiqing, what are you talking about?" Isn't the reason why they gathered and demonstrated outside the imperial city gate because they felt that there were fraudulent cases in the imperial examination? Now through this duel between the north and the south, they have been proven to be inferior in skills, and there is nothing wrong with the results of the imperial examination. In that case, why haven't they disbanded yet? ”
Seeing the solemn look on the emperor's face, Hong Qian immediately replied straightforwardly: "Your Majesty, do you think the Northern Raise Sect will be disbanded so easily?" If they had been able to do so, they would not have turned a deaf ear to His Majesty's decree in the first place. ”
Hearing him mention the holy decree, the expression on the emperor's face was a little ugly. He has been an emperor all his life, and he has never encountered such a situation of disrespect for the decree. If it weren't for the fact that the law did not blame the people, and he was worried about angering this group of northern movers, he might have ordered those leaders to be arrested and put in the prison.
Of course, if it is the leader of the northern lifters who is caught in the prison. It is certainly impossible to enjoy the treatment of Hongqian. They will be imprisoned in real prisons, not in the so-called cells prepared for the emperor's close retainers.
Seeing the emperor's ugly face, Hong Qian immediately pretended to be relaxed and comforted: "Your Majesty, you don't need to worry too much. Since the minister had already anticipated this possibility, he was naturally thinking about a countermeasure early in his heart. After some thought, the minister now has some eyebrows. After returning to the prison, the minister handed over the recital written during this time to His Majesty for his majesty's viewing. ”
Hearing his words, the expression on the emperor's face immediately turned cloudy, and he said without forgetting his good mood: "Hong Aiqing, I have known for a long time that you are a visionary, and now I see that it is really right." With you, I believe that this turmoil will be safe. ”
Being praised by the emperor, Hong Qian just smiled indifferently, and then changed the topic quite naturally: "Your Majesty, the third game in the ring seems to be about to start." I heard that the north and south of this game are going to test each other, and I believe that there must be sparks. Today's young people are better than the other, and it may bring surprises. ”
As soon as he was reminded of this, the emperor's attention immediately shifted to the ring. The north and the south raised questions to each other's school exams, how could he miss such a grand occasion?
At this moment, two factions with clear barriers have formed in the ring. In order to facilitate mutual examinations, the seats of the north and south lifters were arranged into two rows facing each other. When they sat down, they raised their eyes and saw their opponents sitting across from them. The competition has not yet begun, and the two sides have already collided with passionate sparks.
The southern lifters for victory, and the northern lifters for the sake of face, have made up their minds to compete in this game. The initiative in this game is in their own hands, and they all hold the determination to fight against the water.
Seeing that the players on both sides had already taken their seats, the celebrity who served as the master of ceremonies reintroduced the rules of the third game. Because the rules come from Su Wen's hand, they have a strong variety show color. In order to increase visibility and competition, this game adopts a brutal elimination system. After being named by the opponent to answer the question, if you fail to answer it, you will be eliminated directly.
To ensure fairness, the right to ask questions rotates between the North and the South. It is not until all the members of a certain team are eliminated that the third game will be over.
For such rules, everyone on and off the stage feels very novel. They've seen some decent rules before, but it's the first time they've seen such an exciting format. Even if it's just to experience this new format, the participating players will give it their all.
Unlike the money two-game competition, the third game will produce a final winner. Having the privilege of standing in the ring, who of the participating contestants can refuse to be the fatal attraction of the final winner?
After the master of ceremonies finished introducing the rules, Su Wen immediately asked with a serious face: "May I ask if we have any restrictions on the topic this time?" If we ask some novel questions that are rarely seen in ordinary times, will we face the risk of being judged for violating the rules? I don't understand this, and I hope Mr. can help answer it. ”
Faced with Su Wen's question, the master of ceremonies immediately replied, "Miss Hua, you don't have to worry. The two sides have agreed before that the opponent has no right to protest in this game. Of course, the topic should be self-justifying, which is the minimum requirement. ”
Listening to his answer, Su Wen finally felt completely relieved. Although she had already laid the groundwork, she was still a little uneasy, so she had to determine the relevant rules before the start of the game. After making it clear that the rules had not been changed, she completely relieved herself and decided to have a crazy counterattack in this round of mutual examinations.
After listening to the question and answer between Su Q and the judge, Han Bingqing showed a suspicious look on his face. Although there is no clear basis, her intuition tells her that there is something wrong with this.
Despite his misgivings, Han Bingqing had no reason to speak out. The rules had been negotiated yesterday, and they would never change now because she had doubts. Now that the arrow is on the line, it has become a trend that has to be launched. She had no choice but to bite the bullet.
As soon as the order was given, the mutual question and answer in the third game kicked off. According to the order of the previous draw, the first to ask questions was the northern Juzi faction, and Han Bingqing grabbed such an honor.
His eyes locked on Su Wen, who was sitting opposite, and Han Bingqing decided to practice with her first. In the first two games, she has been suppressed by Su Wen, and she has long accumulated boundless anger in her heart. Now that she had the first chance to ask a question, she decided to answer by name. As long as the problem is tricky enough, I'm not afraid that she won't be sent out of the ring.
What about the excellent performance in the first two games, it was not the third game that he was ousted early. (To be continued......)
