Since ancient times, there is no first in literature in the world, and it is always difficult for scholars to distinguish between high and low levels.

However, in this literary and fu competition, Shen Zhou and Qiu Ying, who had absolute confidence, read the literary and fu written by Xu Xian and Fang Zhongyong, they couldn't help but feel unwilling to accept it.

They claim to be students of Jinling Academy and are the best at literary and essays. They can crush any other academy. The essays they write must have a profound idea and novel structure, which can win everyone's praise.

Unexpectedly, the ending was completely different from what they imagined!

The two of them were so embarrassed that they wanted to dig a hole and bury themselves immediately.

Fortunately, they didn't blurt out just now and expressed their dissatisfaction, otherwise they would have to jump into the river and commit suicide now!

Fortunately, there is still a vacant place in the top three, and they still have a chance to win a game. Although they have lost a lot this time and have lost all their faces, as long as someone can be elected, at least they can still maintain some of their self-esteem.

"Two perverts have appeared. The next person should be me, right?" Shen Zhou and others comforted themselves silently in their hearts.

But reality is like a slap. Whenever they hold hope, they will slap them hard in the face.

"As for the third place in this competition, although it is very different from Xu Xian's "Love Lotus" and Fang Zhongyong's "Sick Plum", it is also remarkable. This fu is Chen An's "The Fu of Orchids".

After everyone read the first two articles, Li Yuanhui waved his hand and asked someone to post this "Oriental Fu" to the wall.

Sure enough, this orchid fu is too far behind Xu Xian and Fang Zhongyong in terms of conception, but in fact, this is the level that a normal scholar should have. The words are beautiful and the words are clear, and there is a faint sense of elegance and freedom.

The article also contains some profound meanings and philosophy, but they are all easy to understand and can be seen by ordinary students.

Works like Xu Xian and Fang Zhongyong are full of genius ideas and ideas, and ordinary people do not have this kind of thinking at all! Even if others study hard for ten years, they may not be able to do it!

Chen An’s article is different, it is something that can be achieved through acquired efforts.

"Not bad! I'm glittering under the forest, and beside the grass. Although no one can appreciate it, I can enjoy it, and the ground is fragrant. So the tender leaves bloom next to it and the fragrance spreads out. This sentence is very good!"

"Time is coming late, and time is about to end. This sentence is quite an example of everyone!"

"This "Ode to Youlan" is indeed enough to rank among the top three!"

After reading Youlan Fu, although Li Yuanhui said that this article is far from Xu Xian and Fang Zhongyong, everyone was not stingy with praise. Because Chen An's essay can at least let them see hope of chasing.

Only a few people from Jinling Academy were exceptions.

At this time, Shen Zhou, Qiu Ying and Lu Zijiu were completely ashamed, their eyes were dull, and they were no longer focused, like walking corpses.

Because Chen An is not a student of Jinling Academy, but a scholar from Suzhou College. This person is also a little famous, but he must be much worse than them.

Moreover, after Chen An became a scholar, he signed up to study at Jinling Academy, but in the end he was rejected by Jinling Academy, thinking that his talent and knowledge were not enough and he could not meet the requirements!

this……

Not only the students of Jinling Academy who participated in the competition had the urge to cry, but even the many teachers and senior executives of Jinling Academy had their faces that were gloomy and terrible.

This time, the Jiangnan Talented Literature Association, Jinling Academy has lost all its grains, which is so embarrassing!

Among the three talented men in Jiangnan, two are Hangzhou Academy, which had a bet with Jinling Academy before the Wenhui; the other is also an "abandoned disciple" of Jinling Academy!

Needless to think about it, after today, for a long time, Jinling Academy will probably become a joke for the entire Jiangnan Academy, and it will no longer be as arrogant as before and look down on other academies.

...

...

Some people are happy and some are worried. No matter what, this talented literary gathering that caused a sensation in Jiangnan finally had its results and came to an end successfully.

The top three of the literary gatherings, Xu Xian, Fang Zhongyong and Chen An, were all qualified to study in Yingtianfu Academy.

If you want to enter school, you only need to arrive in the capital in the spring of the next year.

Chen An was naturally overjoyed when he heard this, and was so excited that he almost burst into tears. He was from a poor family, devoted himself to studying and wanted to make a name for himself in the imperial examination. However, when he wanted to go to Jinling Academy to study, he was troubled by all kinds of difficulties and finally returned home with a loss.

In fact, when Chen An was rejected by Jinling Academy, it was nominally said that his talent and knowledge could not meet the requirements, but the most important reason was that he came from a poor family and had no power at home. After coming to Jinling City, he was despised and finally returned lonely.

Now that I have the opportunity to enter Yingtianfu Academy, which is much more powerful than Jinling Academy, Chen An naturally would not refuse and promised on the spot that he would definitely arrive at Yingtianfu Academy tomorrow!

As for Fang Zhongyong, although he was a little curious and intentional about entering Yingtianfu Academy, he did not have the obsession as much as Chen An. Finally, after soliciting the opinions of his teacher Xu Zhengqing, he made a decision and was willing to study in the capital next spring.

Although Fang Zhongyong's talent and talent, no matter what academy he studied, he will definitely be able to pass the Jinshi class in the future and have a bright future. However, the benefits of going to the capital as soon as possible are not only to increase his knowledge, but also to get to know more outstanding talents in the capital, and to increase his personal connections and network. This will be of great benefit to becoming an official in the future.

What Fang Zhongyong is a little worried about now is Peony.

If he went to the capital, Mudan would probably follow him to the capital, right?

"Where are you, Xu Xian?" Xu Zhengqing asked.

Xu Xian smiled and shook his head, saying, "I won't go to the capital for the time being."

Xu Zhengqing frowned and said, "Why is this? Are you worried about your family? I remember your sister is already married, so you shouldn't have to worry about it?"

It is because my sister is already married that I cannot leave Hangzhou even more!

Xu Xian thought silently in his heart.

After his sister Xu Jiaorong and Li Gongfu got married, Xu Xian had a premonition in his heart that perhaps next year, it would be time for him to meet his wife.

With such concern in his heart, Xu Xian naturally could not stay away from Hangzhou to the capital. If he missed the time and missed this destined marriage, Xu Xian would probably not have time to cry.

"In addition to my sister, the students have the last resort and cannot leave Hangzhou Prefecture for the time being. However, after the students' work is completed, they should go to the capital." Xu Xian explained.

Hearing Xu Xian say this, Xu Zhengqing gave up on the idea of ​​continuing to persuade.

Anyway, with Xu Xian's talent and knowledge, he has spread all over the world. Even if he missed this opportunity to enter the school, it would be very easy to enter Yingtianfu Academy as long as he is willing in the future.

(Make up the fifth update last night. I really couldn't hold on and fell asleep last night.
Chapter completed!
