Chapter 140
Ye Tianqi had an ugly expression. Ye Jingyue smiled and said to him, "Since you wrote a couplet, I'll write one too!"
She walked to her desk, picked up a pen, and quickly wrote a couplet.
The first people to see her first couplet were Ye Yunyao and Lin Shishi.
After she finished writing the couplet, their pupils widened.
They seemed to be unbelievable.
Ye Jingyue blinked at the two of them, with a delicate and lovely smile. The
ninth prince Xiao Yu was also very curious, and he went over to take a look directly.
When he saw the couplet, he was stunned.
Then he turned around and gave Ye Tianqi a look of wishing for the best.
Ye Tianqi panicked instantly.
But he tried to stay calm.
He felt that it was an accident that Ye Jingyue could come up with it. He
absolutely did not believe that it was Ye Jingyue's strength.
The couplet she came up with was definitely not that difficult.
And he noticed that she wrote the couplet very quickly just now.
It definitely would not exceed five words.
How difficult could a five-word couplet be?
Ye Jingyue smiled at him, "I don't have as good a brain as you, and I can't write such a long couplet. I only wrote five words, and I have racked my brains. Master Ye, please give me some advice!" Ye
Tianqi heard that it was indeed five words.
Ye Jingyue smiled at the Ninth Prince. "Thank
you, Ninth Prince."
The Ninth Prince took it with a smile, "I am very happy."
The Ninth Prince hung the couplet on the wall for everyone to see.
In fact, the onlookers had similar ideas to Ye Tianqi. Ye Jingyue only said five words.
A five-word couplet really wouldn't be that difficult.
"Smoke locks the willows in the pond"...
Ye Tianqi was ready to write after seeing the couplet, but when he lifted the pen, his face turned pale instantly.
He raised his head suddenly, his pupils shrank suddenly, and his eyes were full of disbelief.
Ye Jingyue's pretty face became terrified in his eyes.
Ye Jingyue put his hands on his chest and looked at him with a smile.
The onlookers also read it out at the beginning, and they were also trying to write the second line.
This is the best school in the imperial city. Every student in it is full of knowledge. It can be said that the smartest people in the imperial city are here.
Ye Jingyue's couplet only has five words, but if you think about these five words carefully.
It is a hundred times more difficult than the couplet Ye Tianqi just made.
Gu Jingchen was also surprised by Ye Jingyue's couplet.
His cousin, who looked unkempt, was actually very talented. In
fact, she was far more talented than anyone else.
Ye Mingli recited Ye Jingyue's couplet in his mind several times, and finally smiled helplessly.
Smoke locks the willows in the pond.
The first couplet has five characters, each of which is embedded with the five elements as a radical, and the artistic conception is very wonderful.
It seems simple and easy to match, but it is actually very difficult.
This second couplet is not easy to match, and even if you want to match it, it takes time.
Ye Tianqi...can't match it.
Ye Mingli's classmates approached him and started to get close to him.
"Mingli, your sister is amazing! Did you teach her this couplet?"
Otherwise, how could a woman like Ye Jingyue come up with such a wonderful couplet? Ye Mingli
glanced at him, and said in a lukewarm tone: "How can it be so difficult for you to admit that women are no worse than men? If I could come up with this couplet, I wouldn't embarrass you."
The friend touched his nose in a somewhat dejected manner.
"That's not what I meant... I just found it quite unexpected."
In fact, what Ye Mingli said was right.
When we study together, we all compete with each other, and we are all arrogant. We usually want to stand out and shine.
This couplet... Ask yourself, if it were him, he would not hide it.
Ye Jingyue looked at Ye Mingli's face, which was ashen, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, think about it slowly, and you can think of it anytime. I have nothing, but I have a lot of time."
Her words can be said to be full of cold words.
Give him enough time!
He may not be able to figure it out even if he is given time in his next life!
Ye Tianqi's face was ashen, and his hands were clenched into fists.
He never expected that he would be humiliated by a little girl today.
It was really embarrassing.
He lost this round.
He could delay time until sunset, but this means that he lost.
It is better to admit defeat as soon as possible, and the next competition will be faster, so as to widen the score and win her! He
must win!
Otherwise, how can he sit firmly on the throne of the top scholar in the future? So
Ye Tianqi bowed.
"Miss, you are so talented. I accept defeat. You won this round. Let's move on to the next round."
The Ninth Prince smiled and said, "Ye Jingyue's team gets one point. Currently, Ye Jingyue's team has three points and Ye Tianqi's team has one point."
This score made Ye Tianqi blush.
Ye Tianqi tried to save face.
"Next is the arithmetic problem. Get your abacus ready."
"Okay."
[You spent a long time counting for such a simple arithmetic problem as chickens and rabbits in the same cage. I think you don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is!]
[Today, I will make you lose without even a trousers left!]
Ye Yunyao covered her face.
She glanced at Ye Mingli cautiously.
Ye Jingyue's inner voice was very rude.
It was unbearable to look at.
As a scholar, Ye Mingli had never heard such rude words. Fortunately, Ye Jingyue didn't say it out loud.
It's okay if the inner voice is a little outrageous!
Gu Jingchen was helpless.
She is a girl, and she still wants to win Ye Tianqi's pants.
He was the first to disagree!
What a disgrace!
When Ye Jingyue's abacus came up, Ye Tianqi asked directly.
"What is 72 times 523?"
Ye Yunyao and Lin Shishi quickly calculated with an abacus.
But this number is too large, and it is multiplication, so it can't be calculated for a while.
Cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
Ye Tianqi was very proud.
This arithmetic is very large and difficult to calculate.
Ye Tianqi didn't have such great ability to calculate.
But he had several sets of such arithmetic in his mind, and he had the correct answers, so he would definitely win if he took them out to challenge others.
Seeing the girls opposite him sweating profusely while calculating, he felt happy in his heart, and his tone was even more proud: "Take your time to calculate, don't rush. I can solve arithmetic of this level in minutes."
Ye Jingyue smiled.
She didn't even fiddle with the abacus.
"."
The smile on Ye Tianqi's face froze, and the blue and white alternated, which was really beautiful.
The people in the crowd couldn't figure it out either, so no one knew whether Ye Jingyue's answer was true or false.
"Wang Zhao, you calculate."
Someone gave Wang Zhao an abacus and asked Wang Zhao to calculate.
Wang Zhao is a well-known math expert in the academy. He is a math genius. He can calculate any number on the abacus.
Wang Zhao picked up the abacus and fiddled with it quickly. After about three minutes, he figured it out.
He looked at Ye Jingyue with burning eyes.
"Right! The answer is exactly right!"
"How is it possible that she didn't even have an abacus? She just said it out loud!"
