Chapter 106, Game 1, Challenge the School of Engineering!
Chen Changan looked at King Huainan inconspicuously, and Chen Zhan had a bad feeling that something was wrong.
However, before he had time to think about it, Chen Changan said.
"Because someone with ulterior motives advised the emperor not to allocate money, the opening ceremony only had one program."
"It is a pity that some dramas such as The Return of the Condor Heroes and Waiting for a Thousand Years have not been able to be shown to the public!"
"…There is still a long way to go, the competition is about to begin!"
Chen Changan quickly stepped off the stage, leaving everyone in a daze.
The Condor Heroes, a thousand years of waiting...
The opening music is so nice, these two contents must be even better!
This top scholar is indeed something!
Damn, who suggested not letting them spend money? Isn’t that just adding to the chaos?
The emperor also looked at the Prince of Huainan with resentment.
Chen Zhan was very depressed!
At this time, Chen Changan also tricked him, a very severe trick!
Xiang Yingyu ignored all that and roared at the King of Huainan: "My Lord, you are not Chen Changan's father?"
"My son wants to show the Imperial Academy a play. As a father, I should support him. How can I hold him back?"
"Really, I've never seen a father like you!"
The King of Huainan's heart was pounding.
He couldn't turn a deaf ear to it in front of the emperor.
"Your Highness, the Princess, your humble servant, your humble servant..."
"...I am no longer the foolish father. I...want to take revenge on him. Is that ok?"
Chen Zhan had no choice but to tell the emperor in front of him that he was not Chen Changan’s father!
Xiang Yingyu suddenly realized: "Is that so? Hey, Your Majesty, I misunderstood you!"
The King of Huainan lowered his head and gritted his teeth.
What a thing!
Liu Zhenye, the president of the Imperial Academy, stood up and bowed respectfully to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the top scholar has a lot of talent in his heart. It won't be too late to show it to him someday."
"Today is the Imperial College Competition. Should we order each academy to come on stage and demonstrate for the Emperor?"
The opening ceremony is just an appetizer, the competition is the main event.
The emperor nodded, and Liu Zhenye went down to make the arrangements.
The Imperial College Competition adopts a lottery system. Whichever college is drawn will choose other colleges to compete against, so there is no room for fraud.
Liu Zhenye took out a pair of chopsticks and showed them to everyone.
"The first competition, the Etiquette Academy!"
"Please, Li Academy, discuss the match with the Academy!"
Etiquette Academy!
Everyone's eyes turned to Le Yi. He would definitely choose Hu College!
The subjects covered by the Etiquette College are also vast and complex, including poetry and couplets, but last year it was crushed by the Household College.
...How could the Etiquette Academy not think about revenge?
Kill him!
Le Yi stared at the dean of Hu College with a gloomy look and was about to stand up and speak.
Luo Qianfan approached Le Yi and said, "Dean Le, don't let hatred cloud your mind!"
"The opening ceremony of the Institute of Technology has won the emperor's favor. If they don't embarrass the Institute of Technology, the emperor may reward them!"
"The amount of money your Li Academy receives will be reduced. Do you understand?"
Le Yi was slightly stunned.
It is the emperor’s business to reward the Institute of Technology. What does it have to do with our Institute of Etiquette?
Luo Qianfan is clearly making far-fetched arguments!
Le Yi was feeling conflicted.
This time, the Etiquette College prepared unsolvable test questions, intending to take revenge on the Hu College. Can they only bully the weak?
But he is the vice president...
Can I still go against the vice-president?
Seeing that Le Yi didn't speak for a long time, Luo Qianfan threatened.
"Why, you dare to disobey my will?"
"I...don't dare, I don't dare."
Le Yi had no choice but to stand up tremblingly: "Etiquette College, challenge the Engineering College."
When these words were spoken, everyone was puzzled!
The dean of Hu College widened his eyes. How could Li College not challenge him?
Zhu Zigeng turned around suddenly: "Lao Le!"
"The engineering school ranks last, and you're second to last. Even if you beat me, what glory is there?"
"What are your intentions? Tell me!"
Le Yi was also speechless!
I don't want to challenge the School of Engineering, but the vice-president is watching here!
Luo Qianfan laughed: "Dean Zhu, what bad ideas can Dean Le have? He is just testing your disciples' abilities for you."
"Chen Changan did a great job at the opening ceremony. Are you still afraid of the Etiquette Academy?"
Zhu Zigeng gritted his teeth and had nothing to say.
Shangguan Qing'er was also confused and looked at Le Yi: "Dean, are you really going to challenge the School of Engineering?"
Le Yi sat down dejectedly: "Go ahead, I...ah."
Shangguan Qing'er had no choice but to walk off the stage holding the Yaoqin.
The students in the School of Engineering all gritted their teeth.
What they usually study are the so-called strange and lewd techniques, and they know nothing about music, couplets, and poetry.
Isn't this bullying at the Etiquette Academy?
Liu Zhenye nodded to Shangguan Qing'er and told her the rules of the competition.
"The School of Etiquette is challenging the School of Engineering. Shangguan Qing'er will ask the questions, and the School of Engineering will answer them."
"Whether you can answer it or not, ask a question and ask Li Academy to answer it."
"Winning both is the winner."
Imperial College is still relatively fair, the dean said, and stepped down on his own.
Everyone was looking forward to Shangguan Qinger's first question.
Shangguan Qing'er bit her teeth and smiled as she said, "This question is about rhythmic couplets."
"I once followed my father on a diplomatic mission to the north. The scenery there is different from that of Baidi. It is said that people plant in spring and store in winter. The fields are vast and endless."
"It was winter when I went there, but the snow was so beautiful."
In this era, even rich people can't go too far.
Therefore, when they heard Shangguan Qing'er's words, many people nodded with anticipation in their eyes.
Shangguan Qinger continued, "Standing on the top of the mountain, I heard the guide say that there is a couplet circulating here that is full of rhythm."
"If the School of Engineering can match up, then the School of Etiquette will be the loser."
"The first line is: Watching the plum blossoms sweeping away the winter snow alone."
As soon as this couplet came out, everyone frowned and thought.
The students from the School of Engineering were even more speechless.
It's like talking to workers about something as boring as poetry. Are they going to understand it?
The emperor stroked his beard and Xiang Yingyu opened her eyes wide.
"Father, this couplet from the Etiquette Academy is very difficult to come up with."
"It uses a few short words to describe the scene of coming to the wilderness and admiring plum blossoms in the snow, and it also compares itself to plum blossoms, and there is also music?"
"Where is the melody? Why can't I hear it?"
Not only you heard it, the emperor didn't know it either.
The dean of the Household College is Li Desheng. He pondered for a while and turned back to ask.
"Bailiang, do you have any good ideas?"
Tong Bailiang is a well-known talent in Hu College. He is proficient in poetry, lyrics and songs.
When Tong Bailiang heard Li Desheng's question, his face turned red with embarrassment.
"The Academy of Etiquette cannot be lying. There is a rhythm in this couplet."
"Unfortunately, I don't understand music, how can I match it?"
"It's a blessing. If Li Academy had chosen to play against our academy, we would have been... doomed."
There was a flicker of unwillingness in Li Desheng's eyes, but at the same time there was also a hint of luck.
Tong Bailiang was right, fortunately he was not chosen!
Seeing Zhu Zigeng shaking his head, Luo Qianfan laughed: "President Zhu, you are right, you are right!"
"Top Scholar, can't the top scholar come up with something like 'Imperial Academy welcomes you'?"
"Haha, let him be right. We are all listening and getting our hands ready to applaud you!"
Luo Qianfan really clapped his hands without paying attention to the people around him. He was so happy!
Chen Changan, are you embarrassed this time?
Zhu Zigeng was so angry at him that his liver hurt!
He turned around and said, "Vice-President, are you bullying me? My Institute of Engineering doesn't train such talents, so how can we..."
Before Zhu Zigeng finished speaking, Chen Changan spoke.
"Although the Institute of Technology does not produce such talents, this couplet is very simple."
"How can we not be right?"
