"It's all your fault, Xiao Xi! I told you not to inform Concubine Shen, but you insisted on telling her, which made me say a lot of good things in front of her before she finally let me come out. If you miss Mr. Liu's visit because of this, I have to ask you about the performance!"

At this time, a woman in purple was sitting in a sedan chair, opening the curtains of Jiaozi and speaking to the woman in pink standing outside, looking very dissatisfied.

"Princess! You can't blame Xiao Xi for this. Who asked Concubine Shen to put even the slaves under surveillance? Now our words and deeds cannot escape Concubine Shen's eyes. What do you want Xiao Xi to do!"

Xiao Xi looked full of grievances. In fact, after following Ning An out of the palace many times, she also began to yearn for the life outside the palace, especially when she was with Zheng Yao and others, listening to Zheng Yao and Ning An It was also very interesting to watch Yuan Haiyun and Zhang Cheng "fight" against each other, and it was much more free than the cage-like life in the palace.

But now Concubine Shen suddenly ordered Ning An not to leave the palace at will, which made Xiao Xi feel helpless.

Ning An didn't care about this. At this time, he acted like a princess and said, "I don't care. As my princess's slave, you should treat me as my princess in everything. You shouldn't do whatever Concubine Shen tells you to do!"

"..."

Facing such a brutal and domineering Ning An, Xiao Xi was speechless for a while.

But soon, the sedan stopped and the Taixue Building had arrived.

"Stop, please hand over your admission ticket, otherwise you are not allowed to enter." One of the guards guarding the door immediately stopped Ning An and Xiao Xi.

Xiao Xi was immediately worried about the guard, even the princess dared to stop her, and it was a critical time to see her sweetheart, so she immediately rushed up and angrily shouted: "How presumptuous! You don't even know the current Princess Ning'an, so get out of the way." , or I’ll chop off your heads!”

Although what Xiao Xi said is a bit exaggerated, but for Ning An's character, who is sometimes sober and gentle and sometimes brutal and domineering, who knows if she will act recklessly? Even if she wants to act disorderly, who can stop her?

"Ah - I didn't know the princess was here, so I hope she will forgive me!" When the three guards at the door heard that it was the princess, they were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and immediately begged for mercy.

Ning An didn't care about this at the moment, but urged: "What's going on inside now? Have Mr. Liu and Li Zhengyao come to power?"

"Back to princess, this..."

"Just tell me what you know! Didn't you see that the princess is in a hurry?" Xiao Xi said angrily. The guard was still hesitant at this time, so anxious.

At this time, another guard next to him immediately stepped forward and said: "Back to the princess, when I was eating in the dining hall, I heard that Tongxian Academy is temporarily ranked first, and Shuzhou Guild Hall is ranked second. As for Mr. Liu and Li Zhengyao, My subordinates didn’t hear clearly whether they were on stage or not.”

"What? The Shuzhou Guild Hall is the second best?" Ning An was a little surprised. It seemed that from her tone, the Shuzhou Guild Hall shouldn't be the second best, but she thought about it carefully and murmured to herself. He said: "That's right. If that's the case, then Mr. Liu and Li Zhengyao are not on the field. By the way, what else do you know? Tell me quickly."

Ning'an's vigorous and resolute appearance does not look like a princess, but more like a "barbarian woman" in Zhengyao's words. It seems that Zhengyao's description is quite appropriate.

When the guard saw that the princess was so concerned about what was going on inside, he naturally had something to say and did not dare to show any slightness, so he said: "It seems... it seems that when my subordinates were leaving, they heard someone fighting inside."

"Fighting? Who with whom?" Ning An's eyes suddenly widened, which seemed to make her feel a little incredible.

"It seems to be Yan Hao. As for the other one, I don't know him. Anyway, I heard that the two of them seem to have some grudge, and..."

"Hey, princess, wait for me..."

Unexpectedly, before the guard finished speaking, Ning An had already rushed to the Taixue Building, and Xiao Xi had not even reacted.

Ning An was really anxious at the moment, and he was chattering nonstop: "This damn idiot must have had a conflict with Yan Hao again!"

As he spoke, his pace became faster and faster. Just when he was turning, he accidentally stepped on a stone. His whole body twisted, and he heard an audible sound. Ning An covered his ankle with a bitter look on his face.

At the same time, his whole body was about to fall to the ground. Fortunately, Xiao Xi rushed over and caught Ning An just in time, preventing Ning An from falling upside down.

"It hurts so much, wuwuwu..."

Ning An couldn't help crying, but saw that it was a little difficult for her to even get up at this moment, which made Xiao Xi helpless.

"Hey, princess, princess, why are you so anxious! Look at you, you are still running in a long skirt, hey..."

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

"Okay! Now that everyone is here, let me announce the scores of each team in the first two rounds." After saying that, Yan Sheng looked at the audience. After the warm cheers passed, he picked up the paper again.

Tong said: "The first place, Tongxian Academy: 289 points, the second place, Shuzhou Guild Hall:

273 points, third place, Dawei College: 252 points, fourth place, Jingzhou Guild Hall: 235 points, fifth place, Shengda College: 234 points

, sixth place, Siyuan Study Room: 219 points! Please once again express your support for each team with warm applause!"

As soon as Yan Sheng finished speaking, the audience burst into warm applause again. The overwhelming momentum was enough to push the entire competition to a higher climax.

"Okay! The time is almost up now, let's start the third part of this competition - the calligraphy and painting competition!"

Yan Sheng touched his bulging belly, puffed out his chest, picked up the paper tube and said loudly.

The audience burst into applause again, and Zhengyao, Liu Yan and others had already returned to the special area of ​​the Shuzhou Guild Hall, waiting for the next arrangements.

After the warm applause, Yan Sheng picked up the paper tube again and said: "Then let me introduce some of the contents and rules of this link. This link is about painting and inscription, and it is a time to test your skills. With the second

It’s like a round of piano performance competition, with each team sending its players separately

Starting from the second representative, each time a team completes, the judges will rate the previous team, removing the highest score and the lowest score, and the final added score is the total score of this link. The score is the same as the first team.

The same goes for rounds, the highest you can get is 100 points, and the lowest you can get is no points.

"During the painting process, you need to pay attention to the following points: First, due to limited time, each painting cannot take more than a quarter of an hour, so try to keep it simple; second, no painting is allowed, otherwise it will be treated as zero points; third

3. The pictures you draw must not allude to information about officials of the DPRK and China, or relatives of the emperor, otherwise it will be treated as zero points; 4th, you must not plagiarize previous works, otherwise it will be treated as zero points; 5. The drawings above

Must be inscribed, otherwise it will be regarded as inappropriate

Complete treatment; Sixth, during the painting process, the representative is not allowed to communicate with others, otherwise it will be regarded as cheating; Seventh, everyone in the audience is not allowed to harass the painter, otherwise he will be expelled from the stage, and the harassed party will be asked to re-time and re-draw the painting.

Piece 8: The drawing paper is one and two feet long, so this drawing can be done by a team of no more than three people. Well, I have also explained the scoring and rules. If you have any questions, you can ask them. If not, then

Please bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone!”

Yan Sheng kept talking non-stop. I believe that except for newcomers like Zhengyao, few people don't know these rules and scoring methods. Even so, Zhengyao and others have already heard from Zou Cen.

I already know that, in the final analysis, this Yan Sheng is actually a waste of saliva. At best, he is just talking to the audience who have never been here to watch the talent competition before.

After Yan Sheng finished speaking, he immediately returned to his seat, picked up the tea cup and drank the tea in big gulps. At the same time, I saw seven or eight big men holding either long pens or short pens in their hands.

The pens, either thick ink, or inkstone, or rice paper, or plain water, walked onto the stage one by one and placed them in the center of the stage. At the same time, there were four beautiful girls behind them carrying a large square table.

, and placed it in the center.

And when Yan Sheng finished his tea and rested for a while, he came to the center of the stage again. At this moment, he saw that there was no objection from the audience, and all the representative teams were also ready, waiting for him to speak.

"Since everyone has no objections, I will now announce that the third round of calligraphy and painting competition will begin now! Representatives from Siyuan Study Studio are invited to come to the stage, and representatives from Jingzhou Guild Hall are invited to prepare!"

After saying that, Yan Sheng immediately stepped aside and made way for the representatives of Siyuan Study Studio.

"Is it him?!"

"He turns out to be from Siyuan Study!"

"Haha, I really didn't expect that he would be a student of Siyuan Study. I really didn't realize this."

Not only others, but even Zhengyao couldn't help but smile bitterly. After a long time, he found out that this person was from Siyuan Study, but he was confused, why hadn't he seen him in the special area of ​​Siyuan Study in the morning? Also,

Why haven't I seen any students from Siyuan Study say hello to him?

Of course, this man is none other than the young man who slapped Wen Xiang and Yan Hao three times in the face before. He claims to be the son of the Marquis of Huaihai, Yang Jin, who is known as the Little Marquis!

"How could this happen? This boy is actually from Siyuan Study Hall?" Yan Hao's eyes widened immediately. Before, he thought that this Yang Jin was from Zhengyao's group, but he didn't expect that he was not.

"It's interesting, it's really interesting. It seems that this young prince is really hiding his secrets!" Zhang Cheng also nodded, becoming more interested in Yang Jin.

In this way, the young Marquis Yang Jin is also a person, capable of literary and military skills, and he is also very upright. It seems that this friend has been made!

Zheng Yao had already begun to make this calculation in his mind. These days, it is naturally better to have one more friend than one enemy.

"It's begun! Look, there is no one coming up behind him. Does that little marquis want to complete a painting by himself? This painting is a full two inches long and wide!" Yuan Haiyun couldn't help but couldn't believe it.

He said excitedly, is this a bit too conceited?

How long is one foot and two feet? One foot is about 3.3 meters, and 2 feet is about 0.6 meters. Added together, it is a 4-meter-long square paper with an area of ​​16 meters. If a person can do this in a quarter of an hour (half

It is really difficult to complete it within hours).

Therefore, Yuan Haiyun's expression was appropriate.

Zheng Yao also began to become more and more curious about this Yang Jin. The young Marquis was really confident and special, but he would not have been so confident if he hadn't done it twice. Therefore, Zheng Yao also had reason to believe in this young Marquis.

This painting should be able to be completed, but the final quality remains to be seen.

Seeing Yang Jin preparing to draw, Liu Yan immediately said: "My intuition tells me that the young Marquis will paint a very majestic painting, and it is very likely that he will get a high score!"

"I say Liu Yan, don't let other people's ambitions destroy your own prestige! Let me tell you, no matter how they draw, your paintings will definitely be the first, don't worry!" Yuan Haiyun said something, of course.

, what he said was not an exaggeration, after all, there is no doubt about Liu Yan’s skill.
Chapter completed!
