Half an hour later, the secretary came to collect the scroll. Lin Song was careful, and he carefully separated each scroll with white rice paper, for fear that the ink that did not dry would pollute other people's works.

Luo Li saw that the scroll was taken away, stretched his waist and said, "Hmm~ I'm so tired!"

Yuan Qin put down the work in her hand and helped her pinch her shoulder.

At this moment, the lewd man on the left suddenly said in a weird manner: "It's really unlucky, there is a broom star sitting next to it, which provokes so many people that the old man can't concentrate." ”

Several people around listened to the words and looked back at him. In the examination room, no one dared to make a noise, and a few people just shook their heads and didn't make a sound no matter how dissatisfied they were.

Yuan Qin's face turned red when he heard this, and he bit his lip. She looked at Xiao Li again, why didn't this person feel angry at all?

She approached Luo Li and whispered: "Xiao Li, that person is talking about you, aren't you angry?"

Luo Li scratched his head and asked, "Huh, he refers to me?"

"That's right! A couple of roving adults just stood and watched you for a while. ”

"Is there any? I didn't notice it at all!" Luo Li was puzzled, but when he thought that the lewd man just now dared to talk about her, he couldn't get angry.

This revenge is not a woman!

While cleaning the brush, Luo Li said casually: "Yuan Qin, some people just can't look down on others who are better than him, and generally such people are some unscrupulous - perverts." She gritted her teeth and said the last two words, not loud or small, so that the lewd man could hear them.

The angry right hand pointed at Luo Li and scolded: "You-you woman, relying on the bed of a relative of the emperor and the country, you ran to a place like the Academy of Calligraphy and Painting to be embarrassed......

"Who's making a fuss?" said Secretary Lin and glared at the man, who was silent when he saw this.

"If you don't want to continue to participate in the audition, you can quit now! If anyone dares to make a noise, no matter which prince and princess you are recommending, you have to leave for the official!"

Luo Li looked at this little secretary more and more pleasing to the eye, this person's facial features were distinct, and there was sternness in his clear eyes.

Lin Song saw that the man was honest and turned to leave.

The man next to him was angry and had nowhere to vent, so he turned his head and punched the boy heavily.

The boy staggered back, frowning, not daring to make a sound, not even rubbing his hands on the belly that had just been beaten.

Luo Li and Yuan Qin were really surprised when they saw it on the side.

Luo Li's little hand on the bookcase unconsciously grasped the felt.

Seeing this, Yuan Qin hurriedly comforted: "Xiao Li ......"

"It's okay, it's a long time coming. Luo Li smiled.

Suddenly, there was some movement on the side of the auditioner, and a secretary with two guards seemed to escort away a candidate. Just as everyone was looking at each other and wondering what was going on, the female official who read out the question came out and rang the bell, "Today's cheaters, drink ink according to the law and bring someone here." ”

As soon as the words fell, two guards escorted the candidate to the front row, and the secretary had already brought a bowl of things. The cheater muttered something, and Luo Li couldn't hear it clearly, but he couldn't break free. One of the guards came up, pinched his mouth, picked up the bowl that the secretary was carrying, and poured it down for him.

Luo Li saw that the man was covered with black things on his chest, and he knew that this was what he meant. The cheater's face was distorted, he choked, and ink was dripping from his nose, black and swarthy, and he looked a little scary.

This scene is beautifully done with an example, and it is estimated that no one will dare to do it again.

After this incident, the woman announced the second exam questions. These two tests are vulgar enough, and they actually test the four words of God's reward for diligence.

Luo Li secretly laughed at himself, this kind of rotten street plaque is also taken out for testing, it is really boring.

The second test was the same as the last time, and one person only had one piece of rice paper. Each piece of rice paper is not only marked with a number, but also stamped with the seal of the Academy of Calligraphy and Painting.

This time, the rattle had just begun, and several adults who were patrolling walked up to Luo Li and stopped to watch.

Luo Li noticed them this time, because these people blocked the light!

"Please borrow some light, adults. Luo Li smiled at these people, soft like a refreshing spring breeze, which was irresistible.

A few people moved to the side.

Only the evil man didn't move, he closed his fan, clapped his hands, and ordered: "Didn't you listen to Miss Luo, you old guys blocked the light!"

Luo Li glanced at him, although this person was wearing the same vermilion official uniform as the others, he could wear a very charming and bewitching feeling, in short, he was a very strange person.

The two looked at each other, and he smiled and said, "Miss Luo continues, the kung fu of a pillar of incense is very fast, and a third of it has passed." ”

Luo Li gave him a blank look, and when he saw that this person had no intention of moving, he gave up. She picked up the largest wolf hair, and dipped it in ink, and several people around her watched her intently.

She wanted to make the ink and water blend together very well, so that the wolf would absorb the ink evenly, and at the same time control the dryness and wetness.

She silently laid out the composition in her heart, and then lifted it with her small hand holding the wolf pen, and then dropped it again, all in one go.

A delicately arranged, strong, and majestic four characters leap onto the paper.

This vigorous and powerful font makes several of them ashamed. Who would have thought that such a young girl could write such strong and powerful words?

"Wonderful!" the evil man whispered in admiration, his gaze falling back on her handsome face.

The others nodded their heads as well.

"Little girl, may I ask, have the adults seen enough, don't you need to inspect the other candidates?" Luo Li looked sideways and asked angrily.

A few old faces coughed twice and walked to other places.

The evil man was about to say something, but Secretary Lin came over and said unceremoniously, "Why is the Wind Hall Master harassing the candidates?"

"Hmph, Lin Song, don't button your hat randomly. You come and ask this candidate, has the official harassed her?" the Wind Hall Master looked at Luo Li with a serious look.

"Back to Secretary Lin, the master of the wind hall has indeed interfered with the following, and I hope that Secretary Lin will be in charge. Luo Li replied respectfully.

The corners of Secretary Lin's mouth raised slightly, and he nodded, "Since the candidates have said it, then please, Hall Master Feng, let's go to Lin Lao's to talk." ”

"If the official doesn't go, the official still has something to do! You kid, you know to report to your grandfather. I!" The Wind Hall Master ran away, leaving a sentence before leaving, "Girl, you wait!"

Luo Li raised his forehead, are all the hall masters of this calligraphy and painting academy like this?

"Girl finished?" Secretary Lin walked up to him, glanced at Luo Li's calligraphy, full of appreciation, and whispered to himself, "Grandpa is happy this time." ”

"Huh?" said Lori.

"Now that the girl has finished painting and I see that the ink has dried up, I will order someone to take it away. ”

"Then there's Lord Laurin. Luo Li smiled lightly.

Lin Song looked panicked.

A few of the roving adults returned to the main hall, and a kind old man sat on the main seat of the main hall. A few people were discussing the few outstanding painters they had just seen, when the kind old man asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think of these painters this year?"

The woman who read out the exam questions opened her mouth first, "Back to Lin Lao, Min Yun thinks that the Yuzhou painter Ji Xiao recommended by King Rui is outstanding, with a unique painting style, an old-fashioned brushstroke, and amazing techniques, this time it must be the top three." ”

The two hall masters next to him nodded.

"Xuehua, what do you think?" Lin Qi asked the evil man standing behind him who was distracted.

"Elder Lin, please keep calling me the word - night cold, or anything else, stop calling the villain by name. "The evil man is a little anxious, his name is a thousand cuts!

"What's wrong with your name? Hehe, okay, the old man wrote it down, and called you Ye Han. ”

The evil man rolled his eyes a hundred times in his heart, this old man can't remember things, he has to correct it every time, this is the hundredth time!

"Ye Han, which painter do you think is expected to become the new master of the Northern Phoenix Hall?"

"Back to Lin Lao, the villain thinks it's good to have a young girl, this first exam should be the first place, but younger, her painting skills are outstanding, not worse than a few of us. ”

"Oh, young girl, I didn't see this person in the auditions. ”

"Back to Lin Lao, that girl was recommended by King Mu. Min Zhixin, who was in charge of registration, replied.

"Oh, old Min, do you think it's good?"

"Back to Lin Lao, I also think that this girl can come out on top this time. The girl is younger, but she paints well, and fast, her first attempt to copy, is half faster than others, and her painting skills are also very unique, and she is also a strange woman. ”

Four or five hall masters nodded in agreement.

The old man sitting in the middle couldn't sit still, and asked curiously, "Where is that girl?"

"A native of Jicheng, Huangzhou. Min Zhixin replied.

"Oh?" the old man pondered for a moment, "that girl is about twenty years old?"

"Coming soon to the year and twenties. Min Zhixin replied.

"Does Elder Lin know this person?" asked Feng Xuehua.

"Hehe, I don't know this girl, but more than ten years ago, I heard that there was a girl who was good at painting in Jicheng, Huangzhou, and she learned a good hand at the age of three, and her painting skills were excellent at the age of five. At that time, Lao Yu also included a few pictures of this girl. He pondered for a moment and continued: "The prodigy surnamed Luo of the Old Decay is the daughter of a wealthy merchant, and his family is mainly engaged in the calligraphy and painting business. It's just that after the accident in Jicheng, the old man never heard from this person again. If it's really that girl, that's interesting. ”

After listening to Lin Qi's words, Min Zhixin said with some excitement: "This girl is indeed surnamed Luo, and her single name is Li. ”

"Seconds. The old man exclaimed, "You all settle down, don't publicize this matter, let the girl or others know about it, and it will be inevitable to gossip." ”

"The subordinates understand. The crowd nodded.

At this time, the three tests outside the main hall had begun for about a moment, and several people went out to inspect. At two o'clock, Min Zhixin happened to pass by the Luolin Column, he couldn't help but walk over, who knew that this girl was already putting pen to paper, a freehand Baihe picture had been completed, and the ink had not dried.

In this picture, the lotus flowers have different shapes, some have just emerged, some have fully bloomed, and the lotus leaves are also in various forms, and a lifelike kingfisher stands on the lotus canopy, as if flying out of the picture.

Wonderful! Wonderful!

Luo Li actually just felt that the sun was hot, so she handed in the papers and left the academy early, and she didn't pay attention to the hall masters who were staring at her.

Pei Ying was a little surprised when she saw Luo Li coming out first, thinking that something was wrong, so she hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Miss Luo, how was the first attempt?"

"It's all done, it's good, hehe. Luo Li was naturally happy to have successfully completed the first test, she held her stomach and said, "Let's go back to the house quickly, Xiaoyun must have prepared food and waited for me." So saying, the man went to the carriage.

Pei Ying glanced at Yuan Qin, Yuan Qin nodded confidently, Pei Ying was relieved, and followed the two back to the palace.

The initial results will be announced on the fifth chart in early July, and Luo Li is waiting for good news.
