Chapter 798 Decathlon
The poetry session is about to begin.

Deng Deng Deng!
The carriage that Yang Chen was riding in arrived, and at the last moment when the poetry meeting was about to start, Yang Chen made his debut in front of thousands of people.

snort!
On the high platform, the second great scholar snorted coldly, very disdainful.

The rest of the people obviously felt a little gloating when they heard the cold snort. The Emperor of the Great Zhou also frowned, thinking that it was unwise for Yang Chen to put on airs and offend people in the ancestral land of Confucianism and Taoism at this time. Behavior.

But things have come to this point, but they can only find ways to make up for it.

"The time has come. This time, the once-in-a-decade National Poetry Conference officially begins."

A white-headed Confucian who was sitting on the high platform stood up, his whole body was full of talent and aura, and a vague Confucian and Taoist coercion emanated from him.

"Other things, I won't say much, only one thing to say, that is, as in previous years, this time, the Ancestral Land of Confucianism and Taoism will select ten truly peerless geniuses from among the many heavenly talents of all countries to join the Land of Confucianism and Taoism .”

"Of course, as always, such a choice is a two-way choice. We can choose you, and you can also choose us."

"I just remember that in the last poetry conference, Bai Yiqing, the most talented person in the world at that time, Fu Xingbang felt that his talent and learning were not enough, so he chose to refuse to join the ancestral land of Confucianism and Taoism at that time, but stayed in Daqin alone to serve Qin Let the emperor make suggestions and enrich his experience."

"Of course, it is not easy to enter the ancestral land of Confucianism and Taoism. In addition to profound knowledge, there is also an age limit. Only those who are under the age of 20 are eligible to join the ancestral land of Confucianism and Taoism."

"Okay, let's not gossip, the competition will officially begin."

There are six arts in the Confucianism and Taoism competition, which are rites, music, archery, imperialism, calligraphy, and mathematics.

These six arts correspond to the six Confucian and Taoist scriptures, namely "Poetry", "Book", "Li", "Yi", "Spring and Autumn", and "Yue".

Ritual: etiquette (similar to today's moral education. The five rituals are lucky, fierce, guest, military, and good.

Number: number, refers to rational number and qi number (the law when using the method), that is, the movement law of the restraint of yin and yang and five elements. "Guang Ya": "Numbers are art." That is, techniques, methods, and skills.

In addition to the competition of the six arts, there are also poems and lyrics, policy articles, piano and chess painting, etc.

There are about ten items, almost including astronomy, geography, and all knowledge in the world.

Only decathlon students can overwhelm the contemporary and become the number one.

Of course, there are more than ten items of knowledge in Confucianism and Taoism, but the six arts are compulsory. In addition to the six arts, you also need to choose four items to compare.

Other knowledge besides rites, music, archery, imperialism, calligraphy, and mathematics.

Several people on the stage, after several deliberations, finally came the white-headed Confucianist who said, "After our deliberations and the proposals of many students, we decided to hold a poetry meeting this time, which is a bit surprising compared to previous years."

"Because in every poetry meeting, there will be poetry as an item. This time we decided to be different and follow everyone's opinions. This year's competition, we will no longer compete in poetry."

"The eight elegance of life, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry, wine and scented tea, we decided to select four of them."

"Needless to say the Dao of Qin, there is the Dao of Le Dao in the Six Arts, and the Dao of Qin has already been included in it. The Dao of Chess is acceptable, and the Dao of Calligraphy naturally has the Dao of Calligraphy of the Six Arts. There are only three courses of hop tea."

"If what I said is true, let's not talk about the way of drinking. A few days ago, the sage Yang Chen, at the grand meeting held by the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, showed his spirit with a glass of wine, and wrote nine articles that could be famous through the ages. Poems about wine, if they talk about wine, will inevitably be dull."

"In this way, the only thing left is flower arrangement and tea ceremony."

"Therefore, we finally decided that in addition to the six arts, the four items to participate in the competition this time are Confucianism and Taoism, painting, flowering, tea, and chess."

"Those who can achieve good results in these ten items will beat their peers, and those who become the top ten will have the opportunity to enter the ancestral land of Confucianism and Taoism and become a member of the ancestral land of Confucianism and Taoism."

Hearing what Daru said, many people smiled knowingly.

Since Yang Chen's eye-catching performance in the event, many people have expressed their own suggestions to the organizer of the poetry event.

Among them, there are suggestions about wine and poetry.

It is suggested that in this competition, things related to wine and poetry should not appear.

When this proposal was submitted, the Great Zhou Emperor opposed it, because he also knew that the poems of the world's sages are unparalleled in the world, especially, in his poems, there are many things about wine. From this we can see that, The sages and sages of the time also knew the fine wines of the world very well.

Because, many students have studied the six arts, and after reaching the top, everyone's performance in the six arts is comparable.

Therefore, the remaining four knowledge competitions will appear particularly important.

If it is a competition of poetry, Yang Chen can be said to be the champion, no one can compete with him!

However, due to the large number of people who opposed it, the people in the ancestral land of Confucianism and Taoism decided to obey the public opinion after several discussions and canceled the option of poetry competition.

Many people, when they heard this announcement, subconsciously looked at Yang Chen, even the white-headed Confucianists who had some opinions on Yang Chen, also looked at Yang Chen.

It's just that what they saw was somewhat different from what they thought in their hearts.

I saw Yang Chen listened, just smiled slightly, and didn't get angry, and didn't even show any strange behavior.

"This person's mentality is really excellent. Such a person is a real scholar. He is worthy of being a sage in the world."

The three people from the ancestral land of Confucianism and Taoism naturally felt that Yang Chen's behavior like this was not pretending, but his mentality was true.
