Chapter Seventy-Six: Becoming Famous [2]
At the scene of the Yuanxi poetry event, with the end of the first round of primary selection, the second round of secondary selection also opened.
The title remains the same, with the title of [Yuan Xi], write related poems and articles.
On the high stage in the middle of the venue, the original more than 100 people had been screened by the primary selection at this time, and most of them had been reduced, leaving only Bai Yusheng and other 50 people.
In this round, Bai Yuxian chose Ouyang Xiu's "Shengchazi Yuanxi" of the previous Song Dynasty.
Minor modifications have been made, though.
[On New Year's Eve in the past, the flower market was lit up like day;
The willow tops on the moon, people are about after dusk;
On New Year's Eve this year, the moon and lights are still the same;
I don't see the people of the past, and the tears wet the sleeves of the spring shirt. 】
Bai Yuxian made some changes to the original text, changing the original year to the previous year.
Because this poem was originally written by Ouyang Xiu to miss his wife.
But Bai Yuxian is not married yet, and he must not be able to write according to the original text, so he changed the original last year to the old year.
In the past, it can refer to when his father Bai Qingfeng was still alive.
This poem is slightly modified, and it should be regarded as a nostalgia for his father, and no one can doubt anything when it is written in this way.
The second round of poetry selection is still only a few moments.
After a while, Bai Yuxian and the others signed the poems they had written and handed them in turn, and then the scholars of the Hanlin Academy present reviewed and evaluated them in public.
In the second round, 50 people will be selected to take the top 10, and then these 10 people will compete in the third round.
As the poems on the stage were handed in, several scholars of the Hanlin Academy present began to review them, and the atmosphere at the scene became tense.
Even the people watching the excitement outside the venue felt a kind of nervousness inexplicably.
In this way, just over a moment later, the scholars of the Hanlin Academy present selected ten articles according to the review, and then the public announcement officer read the names and announced them in turn.
"Bai Yuxian, "Shengchazi Yuanxi".
As a result, the first name that came to mind was Bai Yuxian.
It's over.
On the stage, Bai Yuxian, who heard his name, was also suddenly relieved, although Bai Yuxian was more confident as a copyist.
But self-confidence is one thing, facts are naturally another, after all, who knows if there will be an upset.
Fortunately, what I was worried about didn't happen.
"In the past, on New Year's Eve, the flower market was as light as day; The willow tops on the moon, people about after dusk"
Later, the public announcement officer read out Bai Yuxian's "Shengchazi Yuanxi" in public.
"Good words!"
Outside the venue, Li Bai heard that the public announcement official finished reading "Shengchazi Yuanxi", and suddenly couldn't help but look bright again, and couldn't help but applaud directly.
"Brother Bai's words should be popular."
The whole venue was also cheering.
And everyone on the stage heard this, and they were also convinced of Bai Yuxian's promotion, and some people who knew Bai Yuxian spoke directly.
"Brother Bai's talent, I'll be convinced."
"Congratulations to Brother Bai, such a good word should be passed on to future generations."
Even on the city tower, Li Longji, the Son of Heaven, couldn't help but look sideways slightly at this moment, and asked to the side.
"Who is the white jade immortal below?"
"Your Majesty, the leftmost white-clothed person in the third row of the stage below is Bai Yuxian."
The attendant beside Li Longji hurriedly said.
Li Longji's gaze immediately followed the prestige, and he saw a young man in white clothes, humble as jade, and handsome as an immortal, appear in sight.
When he saw the young man's demeanor clearly, he couldn't help but light up his eyes and praised him.
"What a young man like jade, as the saying goes, a gentleman is like jade, and today I really saw it."
The other civil and military ministers around who heard Li Longji's words couldn't help but be slightly shocked, and looked at the handsome young man on the stage below with a little more attention.
Because they knew that it was the young man below who had completely entered the eye of the Son of Heaven.
What an honor.
Based on today's words of the Son of Heaven, if the young man below enters the office in the future, he will have to be smooth, especially if he can have the opportunity to appear in front of the Son of Heaven again, with today's impression, the young man below does not know how many detours he will take.
However, when he saw the specific appearance of the young man, the civil and military ministers present also had to sigh, this young man was indeed outstanding, whether it was temperament or appearance, he was really humble and handsome.
Bai Zheng, who was present, heard the words of the Son of Heaven, and was already excited in his heart, and couldn't help himself.
At the same time, in the military attache camp, there is also an old man who is slightly complicated, because the old man is Nangong Yuntian.
Beside Li Longji, the son of heaven, the eyes of the beautiful woman in palace clothes couldn't help but look curiously at the white-clothed young man below.
But that's just the sight.
"Cui Zongzhi, "Shangyuan Night: Part II".
On the podium, the public announcement officer continued to read the quota for passing the second round of selection.
After Bai Yuxian is Cui Zongzhi.
Cui Zongzhi.
Bai Yuxian looked at a young man on the stage who was as handsome as jade and second only to him in appearance and bearing.
This person is Cui Zongzhi, who is also a famous celebrity in the Tang Dynasty today, and is also the son of Cui Riyong, the secretary of the Tang Dynasty.
And Bai Yuxian remembered that if he remembered correctly, in the Tang Dynasty in the previous life of parallel time and space, Cui Zongzhi was a friend of Li Bai, one of the 'Eight Immortals in Drinking', and also a famous beautiful man. ’
Now at a glance, this Cui Zongzhi's appearance is indeed top-notch, it is not an exaggeration to say that Yushu Linfeng is in the wind, and if you want to say that you can stabilize Cui Zongzhi in terms of appearance, it is Bai Yuxian herself.
Soon, the second round of the second round of selection ended, and the ten people who were promoted such as Bai Yuxian and Cui Zongzhi were selected.
Wang Yanlin and Song Xiuwen, who had the best relationship with Bai Yuxian, were unfortunately eliminated.
However, the two were not depressed, today's stage can be said to bring together the top group of young talents in Chang'an, which one is not a talented person, in the eyes of the two, as long as they can pass the first round of primary, it is a success.
Now the second round of the second round has been eliminated, although it is a pity, but there is no shame.
"Brother Bai, I'm waiting for your good news in the audience."
Before the two stepped off the stage, they bowed to Bai Yuxian.
Now that there are three of their friends, only Bai Yuxian is the only seedling left, and the two naturally hope that Bai Yuxian can win fame in one fell swoop.
"Okay."
Bai Yuxian also smiled at the two of them.
With the end of the second round of selection, only the last ten people such as Bai Yuxian and Cui Zongzhi were left on the field.
The third round of final selection also began.
Bai Yuxian also took out his own preparation for pressing the bottom box.
Throughout Bai Yuxian's life and the ancient and modern poems of the previous life, there are not a few poems that write Yuan Xi, but if you want to say the best and most famous one, this one, I am afraid most people will recognize it.
[The east wind blooms thousands of trees at night, blows down, and the stars are like rain; BMW carved cars are full of fragrance, the sound of the phoenix flute moves, the jade pot turns brightly, and the fish and dragon dance all night]
Bai Yuxian slowly put down the pen and wrote the final words.
At the same time, the news that Bai Yuxian entered the final competition of the Yuanxi Poetry Festival through the second round of selection also returned to the Bai family in Wuhou Mansion again.
"In the past, on New Year's Eve, the flower market was as light as day;
The willow tops on the moon, people are about after dusk;
On New Year's Eve this year, the moon and lights are still the same;
I don't see the people of the past, and the tears wet the sleeves of the spring shirt. ”
Han Shiyin happily read the second new word written by Bai Yuxian at the Yuanxi Poetry Festival, and felt that the more she read, the more beautiful it became, and there was an indescribable sadness.
Who is the former person written in the poem Brother Yuxian?
In the past, it should have been many years ago, and Brother Yuxian should have been very young at that time.
That's the case, the old man.
Brother Yuxian's poem should be written by the uncle.
Han Shiyin thought to herself.
"Brother Yuxian, the word is so well written, so beautiful."
Bai Xue couldn't help but say, Bai Qian, Bai Xue, Bai Yue, Bai Lan, Bai Feifeng and the other maids on the side couldn't help but nod in agreement.
This kind of good poetry, even if you don't have any talent to learn, but when you read it, you will have an indescribable sense of resonance.
Bai Yusheng bit his lip tightly, and was very unconvinced, thinking that if I hadn't been able to participate in this Yuan Xi poetry event, I would definitely not be worse than Bai Yuxian, or even more outstanding.
Mrs. Wang was also aggrieved in her heart, and originally wanted to kill Bai Yuxian to see Bai Yuxian be disgraced at this Yuan Xi poetry event, but she was directly promoted all the way.
Mrs. Bai is also a little complicated, not a taste.
Although reason told her that Bai Yuxian was also a child of their Bai family, Bai Yuxian was so outstanding that it was a good thing for their entire Bai family in Wuhou Mansion.
But emotionally, Bai Lao Taijun has never been happy, because her favorite in her heart has always been Bai Yusheng, and Bai Yuxian is only a side child, if it rises completely, then how should their master family deal with themselves, will it threaten the status of their master family, this has always been a thorn in Bai Lao Taijun's heart.
