From doomsday survival to fast-forward daily life
Chapter 161 Bloody Sword
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the field was shocked.
The eldest princess actually directly named two people to write poems again, but one of them was a popular top scholar, and the other was just a young girl who had just come of age, so there was not much suspense about the outcome.
After hearing this, the top scholar bowed and said, "I am only here to entertain the princess. I will respectfully obey your order."
Tian Yu sneered in his heart. This was a nice thing to say, but who among those present didn't know his literary talent? Compared with a young girl who had just reached the age of marriage, he was indeed embarrassed.
The princess asked Tian Yu, "What does Sheng Jing think?"
"Of course my literary talent cannot compare to that of the number one scholar, but I would like to ask for your advice." Tian Yu looked calm, but she had already cursed in her heart. Was there any room for her to refuse?
"Very good!" The eldest princess seemed to be in high spirits.
"Then open this palace's prize and use this item as the theme."
After hearing this, Tian Yu became excited. What on earth was inside?
The palace maid stepped forward and slowly opened the box under everyone's curious gaze.
The subtle and calm aroma of the box just now could no longer conceal the sharpness of the items in the box.
A sword about 90 cm long was lying in the box.
Its surface glowed with cold light, and as the box was opened, there seemed to be a clanging sound.
The hilt of the sword is blood red.
Two colors, one hot and one warm, are fully displayed in the box.
Just at a glance, you can tell that this is a famous sword.
"This sword is called Hanxue, and it was obtained by me in the past years." The eldest princess introduced.
"Today, please let the two of you take the sword as your theme."
Tian Yu took a look at the sword. If she had this thing, this copy would probably be much easier. Moreover, based on her many years of experience, this sword was probably not simple, otherwise she would not find it so tempting.
Years of experience in confiscating props made Tian Yu suspect that this was something that could be identified.
Everyone who saw the sword held their breath at its coldness and murderous aura.
The top scholar's heart was even more excited.
If this item falls into his hands, I am afraid his career will be smoother. With the relationship with the eldest princess, he will truly be successful.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt inspired.
"Then I will show you my poor performance first!" After saying that, he sat down at the desk and started writing furiously.
Tian Yu looked at the sword, then glanced around.
Such a valuable gift is taken so easily? I'm afraid there will be trouble later.
Seeing that the number one scholar had already sat down, Tian Yu also stopped sitting and picked up his pen.
If she wanted to write about swords, she would have plenty of material.
While she was thinking about which one to choose, the top scholar had already finished his work.
"So fast?" Chen Shengqing felt nervous as he looked at Tian Yu who hadn't moved yet.
The top scholar's poem has been presented to the princess.
"I left home at a young age to follow the champion, and went to seek honors with my golden sword.
I don’t know that the horse bones are hurt by the cold water, I only see the evening clouds rising from Dragon City.”
After reading the poem, the princess was quite pleased with it, which shows her lofty ambition and passion.
Tian Yu's work had not yet been completed, but from the princess's expression, everyone knew that she was quite satisfied with the top scholar's work.
There were scattered discussions, and seeing that Tian Yu had not started writing yet, everyone had already made many speculations.
"Does this mean that there is no more ink in your chest?"
"Although he was born in a military family, this weapon is still more emotional in a man's heart."
Chen Shengqing heard these discussions and said indifferently: "In a military family, even women cannot compare to a weak person."
The words were not spoken loudly, but they reached the ears of the men on her right.
Just one sentence made these sons of civil servants very angry.
"The woman is just showing off her verbal skills. If she really had poetry, she wouldn't have to think about it for so long." Someone snorted coldly.
"Although I am a girl, I often hear my father say that this man is straightforward and doesn't have much room for maneuver in his mind." Chen Shengqing pursed her lips and smiled. She had never lost a verbal battle.
This was said in an obscure way, but it scolded the civil servants who loved to give advice and the people on the scene.
Seeing that the argument among the people was about to get out of control, Tian Yu finally started writing.
After just a few words, the piece of paper was delivered to the eldest princess.
She stared at the rice paper.
The words are simple, but full of vigor and spirit. When I read it, I felt all the depression in my heart disappear.
Everyone observed the eldest princess's expression.
After she looked at Tian Yu's work, her expression remained unchanged, but the paper remained in her hands for a long time.
After a long while, she finally spoke up, and it was the final word.
"Today's prize should be taken by the girl from the Chen family."
This statement caused a lot of discussion among the people present.
The man who had been chattering before stood up and said, "Princess, what poems did you two write?"
After hearing the princess's assertion, the top scholar showed some dissatisfaction on his face for a moment, and then said: "I also want to appreciate what a good work Miss Chen has created."
"Then pass it on." The eldest princess handed the paper to the person next to her.
When the top scholar's poem fell into the hands of the palace servant, he cleared his throat and began to read it aloud.
After hearing the poem, everyone praised the poem for its lofty ambitions and aspirations to achieve great things.
Although Chen Shengqing thought it was a good poem, he still felt disdainful: "People who have never been to the battlefield are willing to brag."
"This poem shows great determination, worthy of being the work of the number one scholar." Someone has already praised it loudly.
The number one scholar was flattered by the praise and said, "I don't deserve it. I just don't know what poem Miss Chen wrote that made the princess so impressed."
He was quite unconvinced and thought that there were not many works that could surpass this poem in such a short time.
Upon hearing this, the palace maid looked at the eldest princess, who nodded slowly.
Clearing her throat, the palace maid began to recite this poem, and she felt her blood boiling in her heart.
"It takes ten years to sharpen a sword—" When these words came out, everyone's brows jumped.
"The frosty blade has never been tried--" Everyone's eyes turned to the Blood-stained Sword. The cold light of the sword, at this moment, was piercing into everyone's heart along with this poem.
The palace maid took a deep breath and slowly recited the second half of the sentence: "Today I will show you, who has any grievances?"
As soon as that question was raised, everyone on the field was shocked, and the heroic spirit directly penetrated everyone's heart.
"I have been sharpening my sword for ten years, but I have never tested its frosty blade. Today I show it to you, who has any grievances?" The top scholar slowly recited these short twenty words, feeling deeply moved.
Tian Yu was already clasping his hands together in his heart, he didn't have any talent for poetry at all, it was all thanks to the support of his ancestors.
Amid the uproarious praises from the crowd, the eldest princess opened her red lips and asked, "Who should get the prize?"
----
Tian Yu was sitting in the carriage on the way home, holding the wooden box in her hands. Chen Shengqing was beside her, constantly reciting her poem of the day.
In this way, Chen Shengjing's name will probably become famous in Beijing.
Ignoring her excited sister, Tian Yu had only one thing in mind: What was the purpose of the eldest princess's drama today?
