Chapter 599
Naturally, this voucher is a solution Jingyi came up with!Firstly, it can attract literati to come to join in the fun. Once there are more people, it will gain popularity, and with popularity, the reputation of the four museums will naturally spread!Coupled with the extremely unique decoration of the Sifang Pavilion, which is elegant and fresh, it is naturally the favorite place for those self-proclaimed romantic talents!Secondly, this voucher is clearly from the Sifang Pavilion, so naturally it can only be consumed in this Sifang Pavilion. After going out of the Sifang Pavilion, other places will not recognize it!This is also an important reason why the Sifang Pavilion is so prosperous!
In addition to this, the top three calligraphic treasures of the poetry competition will also be carefully framed by the Sifang Pavilion and hung in the Sifang Pavilion. Many of the decorative calligraphy and paintings in the Sifang Pavilion from the first floor to the third floor are mostly from the literati here. what they left behind.Most literati like their masterpieces to be passed on to the world, so naturally they let them do it, so that they can gain a name for themselves!
In addition, the six talented scholars of each month will decide the number one scholar of the month on the [-]th day. This is naturally a method that Jingyi came up with. Opportunity, all fees free!On that day, King Ping will also visit the Sifang Pavilion in person, and will come to judge with Fu Xiang!This is what these students are most passionate about!

Moreover, every year among the twelve monthly champions, the top three will be selected, and these three will receive a hundred taels of silver from the prince himself, as well as a letter of recommendation from a certain gentleman or the head of the Luming Academy!Or an opportunity to be an official in the closed city!For them, this can be described as a shortcut to wealth!However, the selection of the top three every year is very harsh!Everything from character to literary talent must be assessed!Those who fail in one item will be eliminated!

Who doesn't know that Prince Ping is both civil and military, especially good at writing!Besides, the current Fu Xiang is Fu Yan, the son of the old Fu Xiang, whose talent is also outstanding, plus his status as Wen Xiang!What are students studying hard for?Isn't it just for the sake of getting ahead, once you jump over the Dragon Gate, you can serve the country and honor your ancestors!
The current Fu Xiang is upright and upright, and is loved by the common people, and because he has been trained in the local area for many years, he has no official airs and is approachable.The students heard that the prince is very easy-going, this city is indeed different!
As evening approached, the first day of the junior high school came in to report: "My lord, the poetry competition on the third floor has already started."

"Now is the primary election?"

"Go back to the lord, that's right! The person who is here to preside over the poetry competition today is Mr. Su from Luming Academy."

Yuan Xi nodded, "Is it Su Liang? This person is very talented! He is a good man who never takes pride in his talents. Ouyang Xin is not here?"

"Master Ouyang originally wanted to come, but I heard that old Mr. Ouyang seems to be in a bit of ailment, so Mr. Su came instead."

"Do you know why old Mr. Ouyang is unwell?"

"Go back to Wangfei, I heard it's an old problem! It's okay to just rest in peace for a few days."

Jingyi looked at Yuanxi, "Turn around, I'll order someone to prepare some supplements, let's go to Ouyang's mansion together to visit the sick."

"It should be. Tomorrow. On the first day of the new year, I ordered Xiaoer to serve some lighter meals. The princess and I used it, just in time for the re-election on the third floor."

"Yes!"

"Why don't you start with the primaries?"

"This year is different. Perhaps the reputation of our Sifang Pavilion has spread. This year's poetry competition is full of voices every time, and it is almost catching up with the vegetable market! In the past few months, every primary election There are nearly a hundred people! Fortunately, you had the foresight at that time to build the entire third floor into a square-like appearance, otherwise, the Sifang Pavilion might not even be able to hold it!"

"This is a good thing! It shows that the social atmosphere of this city is gradually changing! Everyone is advocating reading! In the long run, this city will definitely become the number one scholarly city in Dayuan!"

Yuan Xi smiled lightly and said: "Thank you for your good words! However, I don't have any hope for this. I only hope that the people will live a stable life, have food to eat, clothes to wear, and books to read. That would be great! Yiyi , To be honest, I really didn't expect that the Sifang Pavilion you proposed at the beginning would be so useful! Luming Academy is the first academy established by the government in the closed city. If there is no Sifang Pavilion to help To start the name of Luming Academy, I am afraid that there are not many people who know about the Academy now!"

"It's all done by you and your subordinates! No matter how good my idea is, if you don't agree, your subordinates will not be able to do things well! Just like this Sifang Pavilion, it is Yu Xiahe It will be successful only if it is guarded by people! Although he is no longer in the Sifang Pavilion, he built it all by himself in the end!"

"That's right! Xia He is indeed a rare talent! Now, as the long history of the palace, he has complicated affairs, and he is so busy that he almost doesn't even have the time to talk to the children!"

There were a few knocks on the door, and then a waiter brought four dishes and one soup, because Yuan Xi had ordered something lighter, so all the dishes that came up were vegetarian!The two used it briefly, drank a few cups of green tea, and went to the third floor.

The third floor is very lively at this time!But it was only because there were so many people, so it was lively, but the real scene was quite quiet, because the main judge Su Liang was commenting on these poems one by one!

Yuan Xi and Jing Yi sat on the side, and Jing Yi wore a hat on her face.Obviously Yuanxi meant it!
After about half a stick of incense, Su Liang had finished reading all the poems, and selected 20 of them to enter the semi-finals.

In the semi-finals, the judges on the scene usually come up with an impromptu question. This question was drawn up in advance by several gentlemen of Luming Academy, and then placed in a porcelain jar, and then the judges of the day randomly selected it from it. topic.

After Su Liang took out a piece from the porcelain jar, he handed it to the owner of Sifang Hall to read aloud, "With the Dragon Boat Festival as the theme, compose a poem! The rule of Sifang Hall is to limit the time for one stick of incense!"

After saying that, the servant standing by the incense burner immediately inserted a piece of incense, and then stood quietly.After hearing this, the twenty talented scholars thought hard, and some of them just hesitated for a moment, and then began to write!

Although Jingyi is wearing a veiled hat, the veil on the veiled hat was purchased specially by Yuanxi from Jiangnan, and the inside cannot be seen from the outside, but the scene outside can be clearly seen from the inside.

"This topic is a good choice, just in time for the Dragon Boat Festival."

"Exactly, I just don't know, which genius can write poems that satisfy Su Liang?"

The time for a stick of incense, whether it is long or short, before the incense burns out, the twenty students put down their pens and stood quietly aside.

Su Liang nodded, and the host said loudly: "It's not time yet, but all the contestants have finished, please Mr. Su to start judging."
