Want to win the palace fight? Better to be crazy than to be idiotic!

Chapter 148: Poor literary talent is good for oneself

After Xie Zhiqi, everyone also increased the difficulty of the last word.

Although the contestants did not need to write a whole poem, it was not easy to write the first half of a poem in a very short time while also considering how to embarrass the next person. Fortunately, all the contestants had some literary background and had worked hard in the preparations for the poetry competition. After this round, no one was eliminated.

After half a circle, it was Su Feiran's turn again.

The last word An Yuchen left for Su Feiran was "Hu". Su Feiran thought for a moment and then shook his head and chanted: "Huhu, the north wind blows and makes me feel cold, freezing my old cold legs!"

This time even the Queen Mother couldn't stand it anymore and said with a gloomy face: "Ridiculous!"

Since Su Feiran did not violate the rules, Han Tan could do nothing. Fortunately, the other contestants were not ordinary people, and no one fell behind in the next few rounds. Even when it was Su Feiran's turn, she could recite poems randomly and barely get through. The others continued to recite for five rounds, sometimes even coming up with good lines, winning praise from the scholars. While praising them, the scholars also cast a bit of contemptuous eyes on Su Feiran.

Fu Han regretted it very much. He should have considered carefully when selecting people just now, and should not have chosen the worst candidate out of anger. Every time it was Su Feiran's turn to write a poem, he would be picked out and ridiculed by his colleagues. Even if he was thick-skinned, he could not bear it.

However, the contestant he chose, Su Feiran, had amazing composure. Even when the audience booed, she could recite outrageous poems without changing her expression and was not moved by the crowd at all.

Su Feiran really didn't care about other people's opinions. This round was about who could stand the longest, not who could write the best poem. When she won a safe position, it wouldn't be too late to withdraw from the competition if someone took advantage of her. Anyway, Lin Xiuqing was the protagonist today, and the first place was destined to be hers. Even if she wanted to compete fairly, the sisters in the palace would give her face.

By the seventh lap, someone finally couldn't hold on any longer.

The word Xie Zhiqi left for Song Chengpei was "bee". Song Chengpei hesitated, his mind went blank in a hurry, but he was too embarrassed to make up a story like Su Feiran, so he was defeated for a while.

Ning Qiyuan's face looked extremely bad. The person he liked was the first to be eliminated. Doesn't this mean that he has poor vision?

Song Chengpei was open-minded. She was only depressed for a moment, then politely greeted the eight contestants who were still on the field: "I am not as skilled as others, and I am sorry to make you sisters laugh. I hope you sisters can go further than me and recite more beautiful verses."

After saying that, Song Chengpei walked to the audience seats, sat down gracefully, and watched the game with others with great interest.

Ning Qiyuan's face looked better. Even though Jing Cairen lost, she still did not lose the battle, which was a good thing. On the other hand, a certain guy's face was too annoying, and she was the one who had the best chance of advancing...

Another round passed, and Xie Zhiqi and Zeng Wenxin were no match for their opponents and retreated one after another.

These two people were not selected by the mentors just now, and they acted more calmly than Song Chengpei when they lost. They walked out of the competition venue with regrets on their faces one moment, and sat in the audience seats to watch the game while eating melon seeds, and cheered for the good sentences from time to time, which was really heartless.

However, for the six people on the field, the pressure suddenly increased.

——One more person needs to be eliminated before the first game can be declared over.

The six people were more or less nervous. Even Su Feiran, who had been handling the situation with ease just now, held his breath and carefully considered how to respond.

At this moment, Lin Xiuqing suddenly had an inspiration and composed a complete seven-character poem:

"Flowers fall in the spring garden, the night is lonely; rain knocks on the gauze, and the dream is hard to dispel.

Clouds cover the moon's shadow over the north bank of the river, and the wind carries the fragrance of flowers across the Jade Bridge.

The green trees are dimly connected to the dawn light, and the green mountains are faintly surrounded by the clouds.

Life is full of sweet dew, so don’t waste the spring time. ”

As soon as Lin Xiuqing finished reading, Ma Shuya's face suddenly turned bitter. She was overwhelmed by the pressure and raised her hands in surrender.

"Empress Xian is extremely talented. I am willing to admit that she is better than you."

After saying that, Ma Shuya looked at Su Feiran with complicated eyes, and then left the competition venue depressed.

Only five people were left on the field: Lin Xiuqing, Yang Luoxiu, An Yuchen, Wang Qian and Su Feiran. Han Tan immediately announced that these five people advanced, and after a short break, he announced the rules of the second game.

Seeing that Su Feiran had also advanced, the audience immediately booed.

The audience really despised her way of winning!

——This is not about literary talent, it’s clearly about thickness of skin!

Ning Qiyuan squinted at Fu Han and said sarcastically, "Congratulations, young friend Fu!"

Fu Han didn't dare to say anything more, and quickly waved his hands and said, "I dare not, I dare not, it's just luck."

Ning Qiyuan saw that everyone on both sides had gone off to communicate with the colleges they had chosen, leaving him alone in the middle of the judging panel, feeling awkward. He saw that Fu Han was also sitting on pins and needles, and couldn't help but sneer and asked, "Friend Fu, why don't you go and communicate with Liu Ronghua? Maybe she will have to rely on your guidance in the next game!"

Fu Han thought, how dare he give advice. If he hadn't been in contact with Liu Ronghua, she would have nothing to do with him if she played dirty tricks next time. If he gave advice, others would inevitably suspect that he, Fu Han, had instructed Liu Ronghua to take advantage of the situation. The two of them were in cahoots and disrupted the elegant poetry competition.

But Fu Han didn't dare not reply to Ning Qiyuan's words, so he had to be evasive: "Liu Ronghua has her own plans, and my rash instructions will only disrupt her. It is better for Master Taifu to be patient and see how Liu Ronghua will deal with the next game."

Ning Qiyuan's sarcastic remarks did not embarrass Fu Han. He felt as if he had hit cotton with a heavy punch. He snorted coldly and stopped talking to the latter.

Fu Han was also sweating profusely. It would be fine if Liu Ronghua was defeated quickly in the second round, but if she really won and entered the finals, he didn't know how it would end.

For a scholar, the price of having a meal in the palace is a bit too high.

Fortunately, Su Feiran did not intend to fight to the end. She thought that if she lost, she would get a tin medal, which would be safe and would not steal the limelight. As for the top few places, it would be the turn of the rest of the people to compete. Her mediocre poetry skills would not be able to interfere.

Thinking of this, Su Feiran felt relieved. She only needed to think about how to deal with the judges and find a reasonable reason to lose, but other contestants had a lot to consider.

At this moment, Lin Xiuqing, Ma Shuya and Wang Qian were all listening attentively to the instructors' instructions, nodding from time to time, and pretending to be willing to learn. But for some reason, they kept glancing at Su Feiran, as if they were very uneasy about her.

"There's no need, there's really no need!" Su Feiran cried in his heart.

Wu Jiayan was sitting in the stands. She hadn't expected that she would come here to watch the game on a whim and would actually see such a good show. She immediately opened her folding fan and laughed with her hands covering her mouth.
