Song Chi recited directly with a calm expression.
"The flowers are so quiet and shy in spring, who can wear a belt that is full of fragrance?"
After reciting just two sentences, Zhou Zhengan looked slightly stunned and shocked.
"Youhua Genggeng" refers to the orchids in the quiet valley, and the club Zhou Zhengan belongs to is called Youlan Pavilion. He was so surprised that this poem was written about this orchid that he forgot to write it down.
Song Chi reminded: "Master Zhou, remember this."
Zhou Zhengan then reacted and wrote quickly, amazed in his heart. There was no doubt that this was a masterpiece.
The orchid blooms silently in the deep valley, its elegant posture too shy to compete with the spring flowers. Whoever wears it is filled with rich fragrance, symbolizing the inner indifference and nobility.
Seeing that he had finished writing, Song Chi continued.
"One must protect one's own heart, and a pine tree a hundred feet tall can be used as firewood."
After reciting these two sentences, the candidates who handed in their papers looked at Song Chi in surprise.
"What a beautiful sentence!"
"Excellent sentence!"
"Yonglanshi has produced another masterpiece!"
Several people praised the exam in succession without caring about the exam room rules. Zhou Zhengan didn't say anything because he was also immersed in it. He forgot to write for a moment and murmured with more joy.
There are too many poems about orchids, but very few are truly well-written, and even fewer are well-written enough to be sung widely.
This poem written by Song Chi is indeed a rare masterpiece.
Song Chi took in everyone's expressions. He didn't want to act like this, thinking it was too low-class, but he had no choice but to do it.
"Sir, are you satisfied with this poem?"
Zhou Zhengan finally came back to his senses. He took a deep breath and said, "This orchid poem is a rare masterpiece. Your writing is also excellent. You deserve first place."
"Thank you, sir."
Song Chi bowed and left. The people around him looked at each other in confusion. This situation seemed a little wrong. Why was the prefect so polite to Song Chi? Was he impressed by his talent?
How is this possible?
Why did the prefect choose Song Chi as the first in the case?
Li Sheng stood there in a daze.
While everyone was stunned, Song Chi had already walked out of the examination room. His uncle, aunt, cousin and sister were all waiting outside. He looked dazed and remembered that when the county examination was over, his uncle's family and Shen Liangcai were also waiting for him.
Her name was clearly Shen Liangyu, but Song Chi was still used to calling her Shen Liangcai.
I don’t know what happened to the second wife.
But the past two months have seemed like years.
Song Chi looked over and saw that Luo Yurou had replaced Shen Liangcai.
This noble lady from the Duke of Anguo's Mansion hangs out with him all day long. She says it's because she's interesting. That's true. As a time traveler, anything you throw out can make her think about it for a whole day. Of course she finds it novel and interesting.
Well, you have to serve this young lady well.
She is her own amulet.
If Luo Yurou hadn't been by his side, he wouldn't know how many times he would have died.
Thinking about it this way, it seems like he is a bit of a gigolo. Not just like, he is definitely a gigolo.
When she was in the Marquis' Mansion, she had the Prince to look after her. Later, she had Liang Qingwu to protect her. Now, she has Luo Yurou...
There's nothing I can do, this is my fate.
No matter who you rely on, being able to rely on them is a skill.
"How is it? Did Governor Zhou give you any trouble?" My uncle is also a government official now, and he knows everything about these things.
"No, he even gave me the first place in the case."
"The first case?"
Cousin Nan Yan exclaimed in surprise: "Cousin, then you will be the first in the mansion case."
"Well, I have kept the title of the first place in the case." Song Chi likes to be called the first place in the case. This title is elegant and nice.
The first one is the first one.
"I have already won the first place in the prefectural examination. If I can win the first place in the academy examination, it will mean that I have won three prizes in a row." Cousin Sunanyi was also very happy.
After passing the prefectural examination, one will take the academy examination, and two months after that, the provincial examination will take place.
The provincial examination is held every three years. Song Chi was lucky enough to catch the examination this year and had the opportunity to take the exam.
"The college entrance examination will be held in the state capital. Is my cousin going there?"
Su Nanyi suddenly thought of something and looked at Song Chi nervously. "After the Academy Examination, there will be the Provincial Examination, which will also be held in the state capital. Cousin will be staying in the state capital for a few months. With your talent, you will definitely be able to pass the Provincial Examination. Then, in February of next year, there will be the Imperial Examination..."
"Is my cousin going to the capital?"
"No, my cousin won't come back after he leaves."
She continued speaking, her eyes fixed on Song Chi.
Song Chi looked at the few people with a slightly guilty look on his face, but he still had to speak. He said, "I should be leaving for the state capital in a few days."
Those who passed the prefectural examination became tongsheng, a preparatory student who could be recommended by the local government to study in the provincial academy. Song Chi was naturally qualified.
After the provincial examination, he was about to set off for the provincial capital, namely Jiangzhou City.
This was his own plan and was also arranged by County Magistrate Feng.
In the words of County Magistrate Feng, he had already caused enough trouble in Ji County and offended enough people. From now on, it would be inappropriate for him to stay in the government office and he should go to the academy to "retreat from the world."
Being a legal advisor is only temporary. Feng Yuan knows that Song Chi has great ambitions and a bright future, so of course he will not tie Song Chi to his side.
Song Chi has to take the exams consecutively in the same year. Not to mention other things, the time arrangement is very tight. He must go there in advance. Zhoucheng Academy is a good place where he can study and take exams at the same time.
This is also a kind of protection. The court is about to experience a major uproar, which will be triggered by Ji County. Song Chi left to avoid it.
Although it was caused by him, it cannot be concentrated on him.
"Are you leaving?"
My aunt raised her eyebrows and walked over. "Is it so sudden?"
