"Will this not show up?" Dean Canglan's expression showed a little eagerness, looking at the person sitting opposite with a leisurely expression, but the old man's expression suddenly smiled helplessly, probably because he didn't create enough, but the third prince still has to see this side today.

In fact, although the old man who had been thinking about it did not make a sound, but his eyes had already revealed the meaning of this, Jiang Yu's child could still enter the finals with his own ability, as long as two people in Tianjing could successfully clear the customs, there was only one person on Canglan's side to deal with it.

According to the temperament of the three princes, this time the descendants of the Jian family will be brought in for such a legitimate reason, it must be planned carefully, and among the people sent by Canglan here, except for the son of Lord Li, there are still some intentions of support, that is, the other three families are not close to the three princes, if he thinks about it from the position of the three princes, the son of the uncle of the country is even more worthless, after all, the queen's power in the palace is still suppressed.

The incense on Jiulu Ding is about to burn out, although it is the first game, but the atmosphere in the stadium is obviously tense, this is not only the competition between the two houses of the Xuanyue Dynasty, but also a competition for the honor of the family, the winning side naturally has a light on the ancestors.

"Please stop writing and wait a moment." When the incense broke off the wisps of rising smoke, the examiner stood on the high platform again, and four people on each side stood beside the contestants, and the room was unusually quiet for a while, waiting for the ink on the paper to dry and then present the painting to the judges...... Even the contestants who were waiting for it showed some uneasiness on their faces.

This year's test questions are different from previous years, the first painting does not determine the theme, but plays at will, and it requires special thought in both the image and the artistic conception to conceive a work that surpasses the level of previous paintings in the time of these two pillars of incense.

Jiang Yu glanced at the person on the right, and had to admit that Chen Zhihuan's palms were already sweating, and the look on the people on the side revealed the nervousness in his heart, Jiang Yu shook his head quietly, before coming here, the dean had talked to them, saying that no matter what the result was today, just do your best.

The daughter of the Chen family is the only woman in the field...... When the emperor was alive, there was a change in the national system, if the talent of a woman is hidden in the embroidery pavilion, if this talent is not inferior to a man, it is a pity. It was the opening of a women's school, and then it slowly developed into a school where all sisters-in-law under the age of fifteen could go to the same academy as men, but when a woman became an adult, the family would not allow her own girls to continue her studies, and this trend of women's education has been more than 40 years now.

But those who can be selected by Tianjing Academy to participate in this event are even more women...... Some people still know a little more about the Chen family, and they have long heard that the eldest lady of the Chen family is a famous talented woman, and the baby kiss set by the son of the Fu family since childhood only determined the date of marriage last autumn, the eldest son of the Fu family is also a rare handsome person, and this marriage is really a good match, but now there are some signs of decline of the Chen family, that is, it is rumored that the Chen family is actually climbing the words of the Fu family, but some people have found out...... This Chen family's eldest lady, Chen Zhijin, also entered Tianjing Academy when she was young.

Talented and beautiful woman...... Isn't it a perfect match?

"After a pillar of incense, the results of the first game will be announced, and you can move freely for the time being." The vice president of the Ministry of Rites signaled to the maids who had just appeared on the stage to present the paintings to the highest platform, and the results of each competition have always been evaluated on the spot, and the candidates who can enter the second game are selected, not limited to whether the number of people in the two houses is the same, but only by the paintings to speak.

Mu Tianxing deliberately swept over the position he looked at before the start of the game again, but he still didn't see that gaze, that person...... Mo is not leaving.

The father and emperor do not seem to have any opinions on the list submitted by Canglan this year, but the descendants of the Jian family only waited until the last to appear, among the many students in Canglan, there are many elders in the family who are officials in the court, and the official position is higher, and why is the person selected is a person who has no power in the court, and the family behind him still has not completely washed away the charges, he only needs to look at the Jiulu Ding with new incense inserted at this time, and these sudden thoughts seem to have an explanation.

When the ancestors of the Xuanyue Dynasty created the situation, it was the deer as a symbol of the dynasty, and it was the Jiulu Ding that represented the gift of the gentleman, but in the later wars, where the tripod was lost was unknown, until in the hands of the first emperor, some of the disciples led by King Jiang'an visited the site while searching for ancient books, and finally dug up the Jiulu Ding that had disappeared for two hundred years in a Forbidden City ruins.

And there are many rumors among the people...... Those who get the Jiulu Ding can follow the example of the founding ancestors of the year to build a prosperous world.

But then it ...... This world is under the feet of the current emperor, and King Jiang'an was exiled to the imperial tomb.

"Third Highness, please take a look at it first." The person who spoke was the Taifu of the court, more than fifty years old, about the same age as the deans of the two academies, and he was already the person who had been evaluated for five times in this competition, Mu Tianxing on the side looked smiling, but he refused.

"Students don't dare, firstly, the students are inexperienced, and secondly, the person who evaluates you or the teacher is more weighty." There are already eight paintings on the table, and six should be selected in terms of numbers, but if the paintings themselves are excellent, it is possible that only four people will be selected.

"Third Highness, the old man will no longer shirk." The old man in front of him is now the gentleman of the Fifth Emperor's brother, and he also learned a lesson or two from him back then, and this gift should still be given. What's more, his so-called evaluation person is probably because his father wants to test him, and in addition, ...... The original position next to him was Prime Minister An Cheng, but An Cheng didn't seem to be very interested in it, and he refused too much on weekdays, and his father also followed his wishes, but in exchange for this minister...... Lord Hu is a person who has a lot of contacts with Prime Minister An in the DPRK and China.

There is actually very little time for a pillar of incense, and as soon as Mu Tianxing's thoughts are closed, he looks at the painting in front of him with a serious look, but at first glance, he takes a fancy to the third one...... The paintings are not signed, in order to avoid some injustice.

The third painting looks very elegant and chic at first glance, only a few strokes outlining a person's body in the painting, the exposed white wrist can be seen under the blue clothes, and the slender hand is also holding a paintbrush, but it is focused on the indistinguishable face, the extraordinarily delicate facial features, the eyebrows and eyes are a little hazy mood revealed, and the lip flap has some traces of light biting, if you ignore the depicted clothing, you think it is a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, but this is a man's clothes and not a skirt.

Mu Tianxing couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and his eyes stayed in those eyes that were a little lightly hidden, such clear and bright eyes...... With memories and incomprehension, it seems to be wrapped in innocence that does not understand the world and some touched feelings, if you look at these eyes, it should be a woman's eyes, and I always feel that I have the ability to easily see through the minds of others.

If there really is such a thorough person in the world, then people like him will not be able to escape the eyes of this person.

Unconsciously there is a faint smile at the corner of the mouth, although it is a very light smile, but on this extraordinarily enchanting face, it is already a very charming style, it is said that the three highnesses are like their mother concubine, although the people present are rarely so honored to see today's concubine Niangniang, but the three highnesses are indeed outstanding people.

If it is said that there were people who had seen King Jiang An in the presence of those days, they had such an outstanding temperament for the Third Highness...... The two seem to have a little similarity.

And the eighth painting placed in the last position also made Mu Tianxing's eyes shine, especially those eyes...... There is a sense of déjà vu, the woman sitting on the wall is wearing a powder blue dress, she is only fourteen years old, the face covered with black gauze sets off her fair complexion, but it is still a pair of very tempting eyes, at this time she looks down slightly, revealing a playful look, although this girl can't see all the expressions, but the eyes that seem to be able to speak have expressed everything.

But...... This man seems to be depicting the same man as the boy in the third painting.

"I wonder if the Third Highness has an idea?" The Taifu next to him had a smile on his face that couldn't be hidden, and there was a bright light in his eyes, probably because he had come across a painting that was quite satisfactory, Mu Tianxing's last gaze passed over again between the two paintings, if in terms of skills, the latter painting is still immature, but in terms of artistic conception, I don't know if it's a coincidence or how...... These two paintings also echo each other, and the male and female boy gives people too many surprises.

"Although I have a few paintings in my heart that I think are good, I also have to look at the meaning of Taifu and Master Hu." Seeing that the time for a pillar of incense was coming soon, the hearts and eyes of the people present were raised for a while, and most of them were still students of the Canglan Tianjing Academy.

"The old man thinks it's pretty good to have five paintings, I don't know what Master Hu thinks?" The official who had been silent on the side was in the second rank, and he was more cautious than the prince and the first-rank official next to him, and he also nodded.

"There are indeed a few paintings that are quite satisfying, so it's good to ask Taifu to choose them first, if there are discrepancies...... Then it will be decided by the Third Highness. These words lowered the speaker's position again and again, but Mu Tianxing didn't say much, if the first two games were serious, he didn't really need to care, but there were indeed two paintings that caught his attention right now, and let's take a look.

"If His Royal Highness thinks it's okay, the old man will dare to choose first." In fact, it is also important to choose which painting to choose first, after all, the first two paintings that were selected were to be presented to the emperor according to previous years, and if the emperor liked it, there would be a reward, Mu Tianxing on the side nodded.

"The first painting is titled Moonlit Night, the artistic conception is very good, but the subject matter is not novel enough, the second painting is untitled but attached to a poem, this poem is in line with this artistic conception, but the technique is not skilled enough, the third painting ......" Taifu seemed to think about touching his beard at this time, "The angle chosen for the third painting is more peculiar, it seems that there is only one young figure in the whole painting, but the artistic conception is not on the young man, but in his eyes, this painting is the old man's favorite ......" The comments given by each painting are to be recorded, and Mu Tianxing also looked at the third painting, which is indeed very unique.
