Chapter 137: As soon as the eyes are closed and opened, the article comes out
Emperor Wu nodded slightly.
The little eunuch comprehended, "Xuan, the envoys of the Japanese state enter the palace......"
Huan Wuping walked in front, followed by the envoy of the Wa Kingdom.
Huo Guang took a step to the side, Huan Wuping passed by his side, nodded slightly, and Huo Guang also responded politely.
He was surprised to find that everyone in the team of the Japanese Kingdom Mission seemed to be looking at him intentionally or unintentionally, and the feeling of being secretly swept by others was not good at all, and Huo Guang suspected that he was hallucinating.
But just for a moment, everyone's eyes were once again focused on Emperor Wu.
Huo Guang felt that his sleeves were gently pulled, and looked in the direction of his arm, it was the eldest brother Huo Quai.
Along the way, Huo Qubing was very confident in his younger brother, and it was not until he entered the main hall that the envoys of the Japanese Kingdom met His Majesty together, and his heart was a little bottomless.
Huo Quzhi lowered his voice and said, "Are you sure?" ”
Huo Guang saw the nervous expression of the eldest brother, a little funny, in the desert in the face of more than 100,000 Huns and horses, I had never seen Huo Qubing so nervous, and today he seemed to be a big enemy because of his exam.
Huo Guanggang wanted to give his brother a little comfort, but Emperor Wu's voice interrupted his words, and the words that had already reached his mouth were swallowed back into his stomach.
"Today is the last game of this Biwen Competition, after the first two competitions, can the second prince be confident of winning?"
In fact, Emperor Wu's words are a counter-sentence, which means that you have competed twice, and you haven't seen that your level is limited, and if you can't win, it's time to go home.
Everyone is a smart person, and it is natural that he will not be an idiot if he can be sent to the envoy Han, how can he not understand Emperor Wu's counterwords, the faces of the envoys are not very good-looking, only Huan Wuping still maintains a flat posture.
Not in a hurry, not in a hurry, tepid, bowed down and said, "The victory or defeat of Wuping is unpredictable, but he will do his best." ”
Huo Guang admired Huan Wuping's psychological quality a little, in someone else's chassis test, he was provoked by someone else's big boss, and he could not change his face and his heart beat.
In the first two games, Huo Guang was not the one who everyone hoped to win, some were selfish, because other players might have something to do with them to a greater or lesser extent. Some say that they simply don't like Huo Guang and think of him as an imaginary political enemy.
No matter which one it is, Huo Guang's promotion is not so comfortable in their hearts.
But in the last game, the internal contradiction has been upgraded to an external contradiction, this time it is not their children who are competing with Huo Guang, but the envoys of the Wa State, and the mentality of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs has changed again, they are willing to see Huo Guang disliked by Emperor Wu and eliminated, but they don't want the people from the Wa State to win.
The competition officially began, because it was a palace exam, and naturally there was no need for Zhang Xiangkun to announce the exam questions.
Liu Sheng picked up the question that Emperor Wu had just written, "In today's palace test, please describe a scenery in the time of a stick of incense." ”
As soon as the question came out, the hall began to move.
Huo Guang and Huan Wuping had already stood at the table and were ready to write, a scene, this time it seems to have a requirement, but in fact, it is almost the same as no requirement, the subject matter and type are all your own, as long as it is a scene.
Huo Guang blinked, picked up the pen and began to write.
Without thinking, he began to write and surprised everyone in the hall.
If the first two games are just the preliminary round and the semi-finals, the psychological pressure on everyone is not great, Huo Guang's calmness and casualness just prove his self-confidence, but now it is the palace test, and it is a key game to determine the outcome of the game.
The ministers of civil and military affairs on both sides and the envoys of the Japanese state all stretched their necks as much as possible to look at the paper silk written by Huo Guang, and discussed in a low voice.
"Huo Guang didn't think about it this time, could it be that he is hiding his head again?"
"The strength of the second prince of this Japanese kingdom should not be underestimated, if Huo Guang is still as casual as in the last game, I am afraid it will be difficult to win."
"I also think Huo Guang's writing is too sloppy, which is worrying."
Fujiwara heard Hanchen's discussion beside him, pursed his lips and smiled, and said in his heart, Of course, the second prince of our family has strength, how can he be compared to just Huo Guang.
The envoys of the Japanese state showed a disdainful smile, in their hearts, the writing must be repeatedly scrutinized in their hearts before they can be implemented, how can they write on the paper silk with a pat on the brain, so rash will not be able to write a good article, on the contrary, Huan Wuping's thoughtful thinking will write a good work.
Huo Guang found that his speed of writing with a brush was getting faster and faster, at first he couldn't write, and it was difficult to write fast with a pen, but now although his handwriting has not improved, he is still crooked and crawling like a worm, but the increase in speed is amazing.
After a while, he wrote the poems floating in his mind on the paper, and the main reason why he started writing quickly every time was that the articles appeared in his mind quickly, and he was afraid of forgetting them if he didn't write them down quickly.
Huan Wuping already had a draft in his heart, but he was still hesitating how to polish it, and Yu Guang caught a glimpse that Huo Guang had already started to write, although it was only a glance, he clearly saw Huo Guang's crooked handwriting.
Huan Wuping snorted coldly in his heart, he learned Han culture since he was a child, and he was particularly obsessed with Han calligraphy, in his heart as a reader, the article can not be written well, but the handwriting must be good. Literary talent is sometimes perceptive, it may be innate, everyone has a difference between superior and inferior, but calligraphy can definitely be improved through hard practice.
Huo Guang's handwriting is so sloppy, it is intolerable to Huan Wuping, he once thought that Huo Guang could only win by virtue of his cleverness, but in fact, he was not a scholar at all.
Just when Huan Wuping retracted his gaze, Huo Guang had already finished writing.
He glanced at the poems he had written, and closed his gaze quietly, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked.
Emperor Wu sat on the top of the main hall, looking at it is the clearest, Huo Guang from hearing the exam questions to starting to write before and after it is a blink of an eye, to be precise, he didn't think at all and began to write, if it weren't for the fairness and justice, he wrote down the questions before he started, and did not disclose the questions to anyone in advance, even Emperor Wu himself would suspect that the questions were leaked.
Liu Sheng was also nervous in his heart, the lord of Rong'an hid behind the screen and secretly watched the game, if Huo Guang wins, His Majesty will immediately give them a marriage, watching Huo Guang finish writing so quickly, although this is his usual style, Liu Sheng still sweated for him.
Everyone in the hall was nervous, but the most nervous and the person who cared the most about winning or losing the game was behind the screen at the moment, silently watching everything in the hall.
Rong An subconsciously held Qiao'er's hand, as if he wanted to vent his nervousness that had nowhere to vent.
Qiao'er was also nervous, but he was more confident that Huo Guang would win, "County Lord, you don't have to worry about Huo Gongzi, others are quick to react, and their exports are written, so they are naturally faster than the envoys from the Wa Kingdom." ”
Lord Rong'an barely squeezed out a smile and nodded slightly.
