The ladies had obviously already thought about it and went to the palace ladies to apply for projects.

"Sister, what events are you planning to participate in?" Bai Wan'er stepped forward and asked when Bai Yang didn't move.

"Of course everyone participated." Bai Yang said without hesitation. Some people would believe what he said to lie to children. This was another trap for the judging team. Of course, she would not tell Bai Wan'er these words. Even if she said it

, Bai Wan'er may not have that ability. When the time comes, it would be better to be outstanding in a certain aspect than to be ordinary in everything.

Bai Wan'er felt a little unsure. Is this beggar sister talking nonsense? Can she play chess, calligraphy, painting, and dance?

Huang Rong on the other side didn't think so. Based on her understanding of Bai Yang in the past two days. If Bai Yang hadn't really come to see the excitement and treated the election as a child's play. Or if Bai Yang really had that ability, the latter possibility was the most likely. Gan Jing would be very happy.

So he went to the palace maid and reported poems and paintings.

Huang Rong and Bai Wan'er each applied for two categories, poetry and painting. Almost all the girls participated in these two competitions.

The first competition in the afternoon was poetry and poetry. When he returned to the house just now, Bai Yang was writing at his desk like everyone else. When it came to poetry and poetry, Bai Yang was very good at it. Of course, the calligraphy of this dynasty was not difficult for Bai Yang. Back then, Bai Yang

When he was with his grandfather, Bai Yang's grandfather always used a brush to write prescriptions for the villagers. Bai Yang also learned to write with a brush, which was Bai Yang's first enlightenment education as a child. When he was in school, Bai Yang even won a prize in a calligraphy competition.

In the dynasty we live in now, calligraphy has not yet developed into a self-contained entity. Men write rough and arrogant, while ladies write delicately and softly. Bai Yang's calligraphy is compatible with the essence of modern calligraphy and that of this dynasty. She wrote it eloquently.

A few pictures. I just looked at the three ladies and was stunned. No wonder Miss Bai applied for all the projects. It turns out she has real skills.

"Sister, who did you learn how to read when you were begging?" Bai Wan'er asked as she came to Bai Yang's table.

"I first learned it from my mother-in-law. After I walked around the Palace of Hell and came back, my sister and I were completely transformed. You are all children who grew up in a honey pot. You have been taught how to write and read by female teachers since you were young. Neither of you know how to write.

If you know my handwriting, will the judges laugh at me?"

"Sister, can you give me one?"

"Sister, you can take it if you like. But I advise you not to take it out to compete during the general election."

"Are you afraid that your younger sister will surpass you?"

"Sister Wan'er, if you have the ability to surpass my sister, my sister will be proud of you and our Baiwang Palace."

Huang Rong and Jing'er didn't hide it when they saw Bai Yang. They both came to Bai Yang's table and looked at it carefully.

"Sister Bai, how did you come up with these gorgeous words? You wrote all the grandeur and enchantment of the Imperial Garden, and you also described the essence of each flower vividly. Why can't we think of it?" Gan Jing said sincerely.

praised.

"You can use it as a reference. If you can understand it, you can learn from it. If you don't understand it, don't copy it mechanically." Bai Yang reminded kindly.

"But aren't we the same when we take part in the competition?" Huang Rong asked worriedly.

"It doesn't matter, I will just write a few more pictures." Bai Yang said generously, and she was also willing to help the ladies in the same room.

The ladies participating in the poetry and song competition, each strived to surpass everyone else in quantity. So the old lady collected a pile of paper in her hand. The paper of this dynasty was still very rough, so the old lady carefully put each lady's

The poems and songs he wrote were separated, and several palace maids sent them to the side separated by the screen. Only then did Bai Yang know that these were not judged by the judging panel. There must be people on that side of the screen who came to watch.

No one knows who they are. It's a bit like a modern college exam. Who will grade the papers is unknown to these ladies.

The courtyard of Fengyi Palace is filled with charcoal braziers. The entire courtyard of Fengyi Palace is divided into two areas by screens. On one side are the 50 young ladies participating in the competition, and on the other side are the people who came to watch today. The screen blocks the cold.

The charcoal brazier also radiates heat. It doesn't seem too cold inside the screen. But after all, we are sitting in the open air. Although the ladies are wearing several layers of clothes, they can keep out the cold for a short time, but after a long time they feel unbearable.

"Sister Wan'er, sit next to me, let's keep each other warm." Seeing Bai Wan'er shivering from the cold, Bai Yang moved the stool towards her and said.

"Sister, you are so warm. Sister, are you wearing a winter coat underneath?" Wan'er asked mysteriously.

"No, my sister got a lot of exercise from being hungry and cold. Don't you all wear cotton-padded clothes in winter?"

"Sister Bai, those white furs stuffed in the clothes are not available in our country of Great Yan. The small sweet potato country produces cotton, which is called cotton, but the distance is long and the price is expensive. Ordinary people cannot afford to wear it. 5 years

When the Tibetan kingdom comes to pay tribute, it can bring a large number of such things. In addition to paying tribute to the royal family, it is also sold in the capital. But we people can't afford it." Huang Rong said very matter-of-factly, and people also moved the bench over.

, sat down next to Bai Yang. Gan Jing hesitated and sat over. Strangely enough, Bai Yang's body was radiating warmth. The four ladies hugged each other for warmth, and they didn't feel the cold of early winter was so hard to bear.

On the side separated by the screen, all the people sitting were men. Of course, everyone was wearing heavy cotton clothes. In the front row were the prince and the third, fourth and fifth princes, and in the back row were the ministers who were preparing to select in the general election.

The wife's son and the young master. These people don't need to participate in judgment. They are just here for a blind date.

There are several tables at the back. The person who judges the calligraphy is the gentleman who enlightened the princes and princesses. There are also the scholars who judge the artistic conception of poetry and songs, and the officials of the etiquette department. After all, the words of poetry and singing are different. On each table

There were five or six people sitting there, and every piece of paper written by the ladies had to be reviewed by everyone on the table. Then the opinions of several people were combined to give the paper an appropriate score.

The current selection of the transaction below is indeed fair and just. At the end is a big table, where the elders from the court sit. They are mainly here to supervise and judge fairness and justice.

Originally, the emperor was going to come for a visit today. On the one hand, it shows the importance the court attaches to the five-year election. Secondly, if there is a particularly outstanding emperor, he will be included in the harem first. The emperor did not come today, which made everyone have different speculations.

.Those who knew a little bit about the inside story were speculating in their hearts that the Emperor was giving up.

The prince doesn't think so. He knows his father better than his son! The more the emperor behaves like this, the more it means that he is bound to win. Just like the last election of Princess Xiling in 5 years. But this time he is not so lucky. It depends on the situation.

The emperor was seriously injured by Bai Yang.

The third prince, Yan Xiaotian, lives up to his name. He sits next to the prince and smiles like a harmless person. In fact, he knows more than the prince, which shows how powerful his mother, the noble concubine, is in the harem. The emperor vomited blood several times last night, but

It's nothing serious. The emperor didn't come because he was holding back some big move. He was also secretly rearranging the layout. At this moment, he and the four and five men beside him said with smiles.

"In terms of appearance, I think the beggar lady ranks first. But her background is too humble. It will be difficult for her to convince the public when she enters the palace in the future."

"What the third brother said is absolutely true, but I heard that the beggar lady in Prince Bai's Mansion was really capable. She was the one who detoxified the second brother, Prince Xiaoyao, from his poison," the fourth prince said.

"That doesn't have much to do with us. Women can't be older than men. This is a taboo of our ancestors. I still think the young lady named Jing'er is better. She looks well-behaved and looks like a lucky lady. She is from the Gan family.

The power is a little bit low." The fifth prince said without thinking.

"Fifth brother, you are here to choose the princess, not to expand your power. Don't say anything out loud, or you may get burned." The prince said like a brother.

"Prince and brother, aren't there no outsiders? Brother, you are not allowed to complain in front of your father."

"What are you talking about? Is this the prince like that? Trouble comes from the mouth. This is an eternal truth. You are still young now and you will know in a few years." The prince is telling the truth. These few are better than me.

A prince who is two years younger than the prince who has been elected for five years is really not worth his trouble.

In the row behind the princes are the noble prince and young master Hao. They are also criticizing the ladies on the other side of the screen without any scruples. They are also talking about their appearance, family, wealth and strength, which is not the same as the talent show, which shows their talent.

Display does not play a big role in the five-year general election.

Finally, the judging work over there was about to end, and one sheet from each lady's answer sheet was taken out and put together. It was returned to the old grandma's hands, which was one-fifth of the original. It can be seen that it is about to come again.
