Shengshang has the same vision as Fu Zhixing, "If Xiaoxiao is a man, if he trains for a few more years, he can be a household servant." ”

Empress Shen smiled but said nothing.

At this talent conference, Yan Hagi originally planned to take the civil route, personally contribute, and make personal profits, but the saint intervened and became an official; Yan Hagi pouted depressedly, "Your Majesty, this is killing donkeys and unloading the mill." ”

"Your Majesty has increased the fiefdom of one of your counties." Fu Zhixing said with a smile.

Yan Hagi immediately changed his words, "Your Majesty is a great Mingjun. "False name or something, she doesn't care, it's good to have benefits. After all, she is still keeping filial piety, and it is not easy for her to come out like this.

"This is the poster from the talent show." Fu Zhixing handed her a piece of rice paper painted in various colors.

Yan Hagi took it and looked at it, and it read: The first talent conference. Registration period: May 20 to May 30. Applicants: Yandu people, good nationality, male 14 to 18 years old, female 12 to 15 years old......

Organizers: Prince, Crown Princess, King Su, Princess Su.

Chief judge: Chengyang eldest princess.

"Grandmother is going to be a judge!" Yan Hagi was stunned.

"You organized this event, you can't go, grandmother will help you watch it." Fu Zhixing said with a smile.

Yan Hagi smiled, "Grandmother is so nice. ”

Judges of the men's group: Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, Guozi Jian Wine, Bachelor of Hanlin Academy, mountain chiefs of four colleges, and two elders; A total of nine people, divided into three groups.

This lineup is luxurious enough, and they are about to catch up with the imperial examination.

Let's look at the judges of the women's group: Duchess of England, Princess Rong, Mrs. Wentaifu...... and so on.

Then comes the preliminary round date: from the second day of June to the sixth day of June, a total of five days.

Venue: The men's group is in the Zhaohui Garden of Changchun Garden, and the women's group is in the Duyun Ju of Changchun Garden.

"Do you want to know what reward Your Majesty gives to the champion of the talent show?" Fu Zhixing asked.

Yan Hagi nodded, "Yes." ”

"The first in the men's group is given to the same Jinshi, and the first in the women's group is to enjoy the eight grades of the Ru Lu." Fu Zhixing said with a smile.

The men's rewards are quite ordinary, but the women's ones are very generous! Yan Hao smiled: "The number of people who sign up will be very large. ”

As Yan Hagi expected, there were a large number of applicants, and the talent show was as hot as the weather. Registration closed on May 30 with a total of 597 applicants for the men's group and 629 for the women's group.

Yan Hagi took the list and said with a smile: "Jingzhong is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, there are so many talented people." ”

As the organizer, on the first day of the competition, the crown prince, the crown princess, the king of Su and the princess of Su were all present. Princess Su also sighed, "It's a pity that Xiaoxiao didn't come." ”

"It's okay, there's something fun, let's go tell her." The crown princess laughed.

The number of talents in the men's group is less than that in the women's group, including musical instruments, calligraphy and painting, and martial arts. Women not only have musical instruments, calligraphy and painting, dance, but also embroidery and miscellaneous. This miscellaneous term refers to winemaking, cooking, etc.

Shen Lin was drawn to the 587th lot, which was on the fourth day of the competition, and her talent was calligraphy and painting. The crown princess and Princess Su deliberately sat in other groups for a while before coming to the calligraphy and painting group. The title of the men's painting and calligraphy group is: Painting lotus without seeing lotus. The topic of the women's calligraphy and painting group is not so difficult, drawing a lotus fish double play.

Some people draw lotus flowers bigger, and the fish are small in the downstream of the lotus leaves; Some people draw larger fish, and small lotus flowers are dotted on the side of the drawing paper. The Shen family invited a famous teacher to teach Shen Lin, and Shen Lin's lotus fish double play is very well drawn.

A blooming lotus flower, two lotus leaves, under the leaves are five swimming fish, in the upper right corner, Shen Lin also inscribed two poems: the lotus leaves are infinitely green, and the lotus flowers are different red.
