Lynch smiled and looked around the students in the hall, then said to the Admiral Xuezheng: "Brother Cui, come and give a speech."

Cui Shanfu shook his hand and said, "I am a guest today. This poem will be held by your Hangzhou Prefecture, so you, the official of your parents, will naturally give a speech."

Lynch stopped refusing and encouraged the students in the hall, hoping to produce some excellent works today, and encouraged the students who participated in the provincial examination in the current subject to achieve good results, and then announced the beginning of the poetry meeting.

A group of officials went upstairs. There were no less than a hundred students in the hall at this moment. It was bustling and bustling. Soon, an official came down and stood in the hall and said loudly to the students: "The poetry meeting began. The participants had a quarter of an hour to hand in the poems and lyrics. Those who commented on the good ones could enter the second floor. If there were any praises, they could go straight to the third floor."

Qin Guan showed that many people took out the poems and essays they had prepared from their arms and presented them to the official.

It seems that many people are really preparing in advance.

However, some people wrote poems on the spot. Qin Guan found that Chen Yichen did not take the poem from his arms, but stood up and walked to the copywriting. The four treasures of the study had already been prepared. Chen Yichen pondered for a moment, wrote a poem, and then handed it to the officials.

Time passed minute by minute, and finally people looked at Qin Guan.

Qin Guan is now quite famous in Hangzhou City, especially these days, there are people in the outside world who are promoting the name of "Little Poetry Immortal". Many people want to see what poems he will produce this time, but people are surprised that Qin Guan has not moved yet.

Zheng Da was secretly anxious about his friend. Seeing that Qin Guan was still, he thought he could not think of any good poems for a while, so he whispered in Qin Guan's ear.

"Brother Qin, if you are not prepared, it is better not to write, write randomly, and you can't even go up the second floor, which is even more embarrassing. If you don't write, you can say that you are not thinking well today, which is also an excuse."

Qin Guan smiled casually and said to Zheng Da: "Brother Zheng, don't worry, I'm still prepared."

As he said that, he stood up, walked to the copywriting, picked up the pen and wrote the word, and sent it to the official. The official nodded, took Qin Guan's poem, and asked the people in the hall again, "Is there anyone else to submit the manuscript? If not, I will give it to the adults upstairs for evaluation."

The students said nothing, and the official went upstairs with a stack of poems.

The students in the department started chatting again, but it was obvious that they had no more relaxation than they had just now.

It seems that everyone is very concerned about the results of the selection.

Moon Watching Tower, third floor.

The officials circulated the students' poems and commented on each other. Suddenly, Dr. Cheng said, "This word is so good, I will read it to you." After that, he started to recite it aloud.

"The magpies flying east and flying west and swallows flying. The water is seen for years. The strong rain washes the fragrant car. The sky returns to the river and the house. The sorrow of separation is over a thousand years. We look at each other far and long, and we are not like the world. We look back on the mountain thousands of miles away."

After pronounced the word, everyone applauded.

"Okay, the whole word is really good."

"The first sentence of the title, 'The magpie flying east and flying swallows flying west. The ying yam is seen for many years'. It is a good sentence in the Chinese Valentine's poem."

"I haven't seen each other for many years, so I can only cry across the river; when I meet at this time, I will naturally regret meeting too late. I write down the taste of the Chinese Valentine's Day."

"This word should be worthy of praise."

Prefect Lin and Cui Xuezheng were the hosts of this poetry meeting. They also liked this poem very much. Lynch took the poem and read it again, and picked up the pen and directly commented on it.

There are two results for judging poetry. Those who evaluate the best can enter the second floor, and those who evaluate the best can go directly to the third floor. However, those who can evaluate the best have few in previous years, which shows how difficult it is. As for those who do not evaluate, they are not even qualified to go to the second floor.

These officials are scholars, while people like Cui Xuezheng and Lin Magistrate are all from Jinshi. They are good at poetry and have a very good mouth. They are not really good poetry and cannot catch the eyes of these people.

Before everyone could finish savoring the word, Dr. Li said again: "I have a word here, I don't think it's better than that just now."

Everyone was interested, "Read it quickly."

"The magpie was misrepresented on that day. I still became a heartbroken immortal. The bridge became a star wave in Han Zhu. People were singing and dancing in front of the phoenix. I had been happy all night and separated for years. Don't be happy more and do nothing to the sky. I know that there is no plan for this meeting, and the cold toad is not yet complete at once."

As soon as Dr. Li finished reading, someone couldn't help but say: "This Quail Sky calls the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl "the heartbroken immortal". It's really clever and appropriate."

Some people also sighed: ""All the night is happy, farewell for years. Don't be happy more and less, how can you do it?" The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl hope to meet each other overnight. Even if you can have the full joy on the Qixi Festival, you can't resist the pain of parting and longing for 364 days. This is really helpless."

"This word is really a rare good word to be in love with the scenery."

"How is it compared to the one just now?"

"Well, I don't think it's a match."

"I think it's better."

Everyone was talking about it, and the poem was sent to Cui Xuezheng. After Cui Xuezheng finished reading it, his eyes lit up. Then he rolled up the original manuscript of the poem without hesitation, stuffed it into his sleeves in everyone's surprised eyes.

Prefect Lin sat next to Cui Xuezheng and was stunned when he saw his actions, "Brother Cui, what's the point?"

Cui Xuezheng didn't look embarrassed at all and said righteously, "Haha, I think this word is good. I like calligraphy very much, so I plan to stay and go back and taste it carefully."

Li Tongzong, who had just read this word, said with some annoyance: "Why didn't I expect to put it away directly? This word is well written, but the calligraphy is better. Alas, Brother Cui took the lead."

Dr. Li, the first to see this word, also said: "When I saw this word, I had the idea of ​​taking it directly."

Choi Shanfu laughed proudly when he saw the lost expressions of the few people.

No one will think of this matter as dirty, but will only be regarded as elegant.

"Then how should this word be judged?" Although Lynch was puzzled, it was not easy to argue with Choi Shanfu, so he directly asked him about his opinion on this poem.

"Excellent, you must be an excellent judge." Cui Shanfu said in an extremely affirmative tone.

The judgment continues.

Not long after, a seven-character poem was selected, "I have not learned the meaning of the cow, so I have to invite the Weaver Girl to play the golden shuttle. I beg for the world every year, but I don't know that there are many things in the world."

Everyone judged that although they were not as good as the two words just now, they were also well written and could be praised for their excellent results.

This time, a total of 114 poems were collected, but only these three were praised. The remaining 36 poems were rated as masterpieces, which could be climbed to the second floor.

After the judgment was over, Lynch ordered: "Read three excellent poems on the spot, and ask three students to go up to the third floor, and another thirty-six people can go up to the second floor."
Chapter completed!
