Chapter Seventy-Four: The Final Four (Part I)

Early the next morning, the county school gate banged gongs and drums, lively and abnormal, dozens of colored flags fluttered in the wind at the gate of the county school, a huge banner hung above the gate, written five big characters: "county taxi top four"

The gate was already crowded with thousands of people who had come from all over the world to admire the prodigy's demeanor, and dozens of county archers maintained order in front of the gate.

Master Liu took Fan Ning to wait in the playground of the county school, and after they waited for a while, Zhu Pei's gorgeous carriage came at a rapid speed and stopped next to the playground.

"Master, I'm really sorry, I overslept a little today!" Juppe was a little embarrassed to get out of the car.

She was wearing the same clothes as yesterday, a bright blue satin scholar's suit, a scholar's scarf on her head, and deerskin boots on her feet.

Courtyard Master Liu smiled and said, "The time is just right, it's not too late at all." ”

He looked back at Fanning and smiled again, "Let's go!" ”

Everyone walked towards the examination room together.

"Slept late last night?" Fanning asked with a concerned smile.

"I guess!"

JuppΓ© covered his mouth, yawned tiredly, and said with a hint of sleepiness: "I don't even know when I fell asleep, and it was already dawn when I woke up." ”

Master Liu looked back and smiled: "Hold on a little longer, there are still two days, and you can go home and have a good rest after the end." ”

"Master of the Academy, what is the content of the individual competition tomorrow?" Fanning asked curiously.

"Basically, it's the same as the team competition, taking the Five Classics, poems and miscellaneous, and whether you take the strategy or not, it's all your strength."

"How many people will be admitted in the end?" Juppe asked.

"It's the same every time, the top ten in the selection competition are called county magistrates, Ju Pei, and you will also have the title of county magistrates."

Zhu Pei pouted, she couldn't participate in the test anyway, what was the point of this kind of county soldier to her?

Master Liu's heart was a little conflicted, if Fan Ning was admitted, he would go to the county school, which was definitely not the result he wanted to see.

But considering Fanning's future, he can only support Fanning to move forward.

After a while, they came to the competition field, and today is the semi-finals, which is actually the team final of the county taxi selection competition.

For the individual contestants, they have come to this point, and everyone has got the upper middle base score, and if they win the championship today, the base score will be the upper middle.

Like Xu Ji, they were eliminated in the first round, and the bottom score is the middle, and with this bottom score, no matter how good the individual game is, it makes no sense.

But the Final Four is crucial for the four schools, which is related to their rankings and their attraction to outstanding students from all over the world.

The four leaders were very nervous, and they sat on the sidelines to watch the game.

First of all, the lottery seats, Yanying School drew the fourth position, the first position is the Evergreen School, the second position is the county school affiliated school, and the third position is Yuqing School.

Except for Yanying Academy, which only has two students, the other schools are all three students, and they are all the three main teams that broke through in Region A.

The five examiners have also been seated, they are all professors from Fuxue, the chief examiner is called Qi Yong, more than forty years old, is the deputy professor of Fuxue, Taixue background, seems to be quite shrewd and capable.

At this time, the loud bell rang, and several officials walked in turn, the first was Zhao Xiuwen, the county school administrator, followed by the county commander Li Yun, who accompanied Bao Zheng who inspected Wu County, followed by the county Cheng, the county lieutenant and the chief Bo.

Zhao Xiuwen smiled and introduced to everyone: "I won't introduce the county gentleman, everyone knows each other, in addition to the county gentleman, there is also a big official who also came to observe our game today, the two Zhejiang road transfer envoys, Lord Bao, please welcome!" ”

In the applause of everyone, the mighty Bao Zheng stood up and said with a smile: "In the next Bao Zheng, just transferred from Shaanxi Road to Liangzhejiang Road, I have heard of the county taxi selection competition in Wu County, it is said that it created a precedent for the county examination of children, and it is my honor to see it with my own eyes today, okay, don't disturb the game, let's start!" ”

With that, he sat down and looked at Fanning with a smile in his eyes, and Fanning winked at him in an expression he hadn't seen in years.

At this time, the county commander Li Yun nodded to the examiner and signaled that he could start the competition.

Qi Yong stood up and said: "Today is the semi-finals, the rules are almost the same as before, but there is a little difference, according to Zhao Xuezheng's requirements, every examiner must score today, and publicize it, including myself, so that everyone can understand."

In addition, every question today has to be tested for calligraphy, please pay attention to it. ”

After Qi Yong finished speaking, seeing that everyone had no objections, he picked up the small hammer and knocked on the copper chime.

'When! ’

With a crisp chime, the game officially began.

.......

Xiao Tong stepped forward to draw questions for each school with the question holder, Zhu Pei looked at the examiner and whispered to Fan Ning: "These guys are all from the school, do you think Grandfather Xu Ji will exert influence on them?" ”

"If he does this, it will be too despicable, he is the chief professor of Fuxue!"

Juppey snorted, "That's because you don't know who he is, let's put it this way!" What kind of person his grandson is, he is what kind of person, but he is a little more hidden. ”

Fanning thought to himself, 'If that's the case, I'll have to be extra careful today.' ’

At this time, the boy who sent the question came to them, and Zhu Pei reached out and drew a lot, opening the question.

'If the foolishness of words is leaked, if you have heard it against the finger'

Please name the citation and recite the full text.

Juppe blinked, thoughtful, and for a moment she whispered to Fanning, "I seem to have read these two sentences. ”

Fanning smiled: "These two sentences are from the Book of Han. Yang Chang's Biography", which should have belonged to the last topic, but this article is very famous, called "Baosun Huizongshu", which belongs to one of the hundred articles that must be memorized by the county school, so the difficulty has been reduced again, and it belongs to the middle grade. ”

Zhu Pei smiled and nodded, "It turned out to be the Book of Newspaper Sun Huizong, no wonder I feel very familiar, I have also read this article, but I forgot it a little." ”

"Might as well be! I remember it well. ”

Fanning silently repeated the beginning and handed it to Ju Pei to copy, if you want to get a high score in calligraphy, of course, Ju Pei has to take action.

The chief examiner, Qi Yong, knocked on the copper chime again, "It's time!" All students are out of writing. ”

Qi Yong drew out the order sign again, Yuqing School answered the first question first, and Yanying School answered third.

Yuqing School drew a couplet question, and asked them to find a couplet from Tang poems and write it out.

This question is relatively simple and belongs to the lower grade question.

Like the end of the day, the Yellow River flows into the sea, etc., but Yuqing School chooses:

Outside the world of rivers;

The mountains are in the middle of nothing.

β€”β€”Wang Wei, "Overlooking the Han River"

This couplet is good, it has more charm, and the five examiners unanimously gave it a good score.

Zhu Pei whispered to Fan Ning again: "I have a hunch that the examiner is biased towards Yuqing Academy. ”

"Why do you have this intuition?" Fanning asked with a smile.

Zhu Peixiu frowned, "I can't tell you clearly, maybe this couplet is not very neat, you see that the river is not worthy of the mountains?" ”

Fanning nodded, Jupei's intuition was right, if he scored this couplet by himself, he would give it to the middle at most, and the top was still a little hot.

The second is the Evergreen School to answer the question, the scoring scale was suddenly tightened, the Evergreen School was drawn to "Mencius", and the recitation was completely correct, but the calligraphy they handed in was a little altered, and the three examiners deducted their calligraphy points and got a middle school.

The Lord of Fei's face changed color, and he had to deduct points for a little correction, which was too nitpicky, but he still held back, after all, the other party had a reason.

"Third, please answer the question in Yanqing Academy!"

The boy took the test paper and the question sign back, and the examiner smiled: "If you have heard the foolishness of the contemptible words, please say it!" Where does it come from? Then recite the full text. ”

Fan Ning said unhurriedly: "These two sentences are from the Book of Han. The Biography of Yang Chang is a well-known independent article called "The Book of Returning Sun Huizong", the full text of which is as follows. ”

Fanning began to recite, "Yun has lost his title and home, governed the industry, started the house, and entertained himself with money......."

This article is more than 2,000 words, and Fanning memorized it all well.

Qi Yong passed the calligraphy to the examiners again, and everyone read it, and then began to score, it was actually two upper middle and two upper middle.

Master Liu's face changed, and he answered so perfectly, why did he give it to Shangzhong?

He knew that the calligraphy must be Zhu Pei's handwriting, that little lady's calligraphy is very beautiful, and her calligraphy is one of the best among all the participating students, so what could be the problem?

Qi Yong hesitated and asked an examiner, "May I ask why Professor Wu gave him Shangzhong?" ”

The examiner said: "I think there should be two answers to this question, one is "Hanshu Yang Chang Biography", and the other is "Baosun Huizong Shu", Yanying School only memorized one of them, which is not perfect, so I give it a grade." ”

Qi Yong nodded, and he also scored an upper middle score.

Master Liu was so angry that his face turned pale, it was just nonsense, the two answers, no matter which one of them should be a full score, besides, if the answer is "Hanshu Yang Chang's Biography", it is a must-have, and it should be an additional test.

The correct answer should be "The Book of Reporting Sun Huizong".

Zhao Xiuwen was also a little restless, and he felt a little too harsh in scoring this question.

However, out of respect for the examiner, he did not stand up to interfere.

Zhu Pei's face turned red with anger, she was about to have a seizure, Fanning grabbed her wrist and whispered: "Calm down, this is the first question!" ”

Zhu Pei finally held back, she gritted her teeth and said, "If I guessed correctly, the county school affiliated school will not score higher." ”

Soon the county school also finished answering the questions, they were writing poetry questions, but the result was unexpected, they actually got an upper and lower score, five examiners scored, three up and down, and two in the middle school.

The county school affiliated school was stunned, this was a situation that they had never seen, and the score was up and down.

There was a whisper in the examination room, and everyone knew very well what it meant to score a score in the semifinals?

Unless the other three schools make major mistakes, the county school-affiliated school is definitely out.

Li Yun asked Bao Zheng with a smile, "What does the transfer envoy think?" ”

Bao Zheng nodded and smiled: "I think this kind of group fighting is very interesting, the level of students is very high, and the examiner's score is also very strict, but the first one is a little more lenient, or it may be that at the beginning, they are not very adaptable." ”

"Fanning didn't disappoint the envoy!" Li Yun asked again.

Bao Zheng laughed, "If that stinky boy dares to disappoint me, see how I spank his ass!" ”

Li Yun was shocked in his heart, Bao Zheng actually used this tone to evaluate Fan Ning, and he suddenly realized that I am afraid that the relationship between Fan Ning and Bao Zheng is extraordinary.

The examiner Qi Yong said slowly: "The first question is over, Yuqing School is temporarily ahead with an upper score, Evergreen School and Yanying School are close behind, and the Affiliated School of County School is temporarily behind, please don't be impatient, calm down and answer the following questions, and the second question will start below." ”

In the second question, Juppe drew a couplet, and the title gave the upper couplet:

Wine sober up and full of tea.

Ask for a downlink.

After a little thought, Fanning gave the following link:

Spend a good full moon life.

Although it is very neat and beautiful, Zhu Pei is not very optimistic about the prospects, there is a reason why she is not optimistic about the prospects, the second question of the Evergreen School and the Affiliated School of the County School in front of her have done a good job, but they are all given to Shangzhong.

As long as there is a heart, any work will have flaws.

Sure enough, the five main examiners unanimously gave the upper middle school scores, on the grounds that the wine, rice and tea were the same kind, and the Huayue people were not very compatible.

Bao Zheng shook his head lightly, and said to the county commander Li Yun: "Fanning's artistic conception of the lower link is very high, and the score is more than up, and the examiner's evaluation is a bit of a waste of time." ”

Li Yun was also a little displeased, he felt that the professor of Fuxue had a kind of contempt for Wu County, which was no longer strict, but a deliberate suppression.

The fourth answer is Yuqing School, their topic is to write a poem by the late Tang Dynasty poet Li Shanfu, this question is relatively biased, Li Shanfu is almost not famous, and there are not many poems left.

However, Yuqing Academy still answered, and the chief examiner Qi Yong smiled at several other examiners: "Yes, this embroidery mountain should be Jingzhaoli Mountain, and I have been there to play." ”

A strange color flashed in Juppe's eyes, and she suddenly picked up the pen on the table and threw it forward.

Fanning was stunned, "What are you doing?" ”

JuppΓ© smiled mysteriously at him, got up to pick up the pen, and the pen rolled directly to the examiner's desk.

Qi Yong suddenly saw a student appear in front of him, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, "What are you doing?" ”

"Back to the examiner, the student's pen is gone!"

Qi Yong waved his hand, "Hurry back to your seat." ”

Zhu Pei picked up the pen, but stepped forward to take a look at the answer sheet of Yuqing Academy, and immediately turned back.

"What did you find?" Fanning asked with a smile.

Zhu Pei sneered, "As I expected, I'll let you watch a good show later!" ”

Fan Ning saw that several examiners were scoring, so he said lightly: "If you find something wrong, just say it quickly, and when the scores come out, it will be difficult to change it." ”

Zhu Pei was right to think about it, she immediately raised her hand and said loudly: "Examiner, Yu Qing Xuetang answered this question incorrectly!" ”
