Chapter 546 The opening of the poetry meeting

If Yan Xishan and other two princes are now tied to Gu Chan, and they are all targets that the prince wants to eliminate, then Yan Li must be the biggest one buried beside them That landmine.

Of course, Yanli, as Yan Xishan's biological daughter, would definitely not harm her biological father.

So now Gu Chan has to worry about one more issue, and that is whether Yan Xishan will betray him.

Thinking of this, Yuan Jie couldn't help but say, "Master, it seems it's time to explore Yan Xishan's attitude."

"Don't worry, the poetry meeting hasn't started yet! Today is a grand event, and he will definitely come. Let's talk about it when we see him." Gu Chan said calmly.

Yuan Jie calmed down and said no more.

After about half a stick of incense, the gate of Jiangnan Academy finally opened.

The old academician led more than a dozen academicians from the academy out, saluted and said hello to the people waiting outside, and then gave his lengthy opening remarks.

After everything that needed to be said, the old academician announced, "Everyone, the Jiangnan Poetry Society is now officially open. Next, everyone is invited to go to Wanshu Garden to prepare for today's first test. .”

"Bah bang bang..."

As the old academician finished speaking, a burst of warm applause immediately sounded outside the academy.

Then everyone, along with the academicians, entered Jiangnan Academy in an orderly manner and went to Wanshu Garden, the largest garden inside.

This garden is located in the center of Jiangnan Academy. There is a lake in the middle, surrounded by corridors and pavilions. There is also a large poetry platform on the lake. The annual poetry meeting is held here. This poetry platform Naturally, it has become a stage for everyone to compete in literature.

When Gu and Chan followed the crowd to Wanshu Garden, an academician walked up quickly and said, "Lord, please come with me and take a seat at the main seat."

"There's no need to be so special! I'm here to compete after all." Gu Chan said nonchalantly.

“Lord, I have misunderstood. This is not a specialization, but a regulation of the Poetry Club. Over the years, all contestants with status will be invited to sit in the high pavilion above. It is not Only for you, Lord Lord," the academician explained with a smile.

Gu Chan nodded in relief, and then led Yuan Jie to follow him to the highest pavilion directly in front of the poetry stage.

When Gu Chan came to the pavilion, she discovered that there were already twenty or thirty people sitting in the pavilion. One of the four seats at the head was empty for her, and the other three Sitting there were Yan Xishan, Yan Li and the old academician respectively.

Gu Chan walked forward and sat directly at the front seat, crossing her legs without saying a word.

Yan Xishan turned his head and looked at his precious daughter sitting on the left, and then at Gu Chan sitting on the right. His face was extremely stiff, and a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

He only found out this morning that Yanli had run away from home and rushed to Kyoto, where she was attracted by the prince and became his concubine.

No, he felt very uncomfortable at this time.

For this period of time, in order to save the lives of everyone in the second prince's party, he was completely tied to Gu Chan and led everyone to help Gu Chan fight against the prince. But now, his own daughter actually got together with the prince. Now he was extremely confused and didn't know what to do.

The old academician didn't care that there were so many three people. When he saw that everyone was here, he turned to look at Gu Chan and said, "Lord, everyone has come in, then I will have someone come on stage to announce the competition system."

"Well! Let's begin!" Gu Chan waved her hand.

The old academician immediately ordered another academician to come on stage to explain the competition system.

Gu Chan sat on a chair and listened carefully. After listening, she realized that this time the Jiangnan Poetry Festival was the same as in previous years, with three days of competition, two competitions every day, and each competition was held for three days. The competition items are different, that is to say, there will be a total of six competitions in three days, and the ranking will be determined after the competition.

"Fuck! It's only been three days! I thought it could last at least ten days! This is going to be troublesome! I originally thought that borrowing poems would delay the time and prepare for future military exercises. I’m prepared, but judging from the situation, it seems like I’m overthinking it!”

After understanding the specific situation of the poetry competition system, Gu Chan couldn't help but murmur to herself.

The previous agreement between her and Zuo Wangfeng was that in the early morning half a month after the end of the poetry meeting, the two sides would start an offensive and defensive military exercise. According to her idea, the poetry meeting would last for ten days, plus half a month. month, then at least one month would be available for secret deployment and arrangements.

But now the poetry meeting only lasts for three days, and the preparation time has been greatly reduced, which makes her not anxious!

Yuan Jie stood behind her and saw that something was wrong with her appearance. He quickly leaned over and put his mouth to her ear and whispered, "Master, there is something wrong with your face. Are you feeling unwell?"< br>
“It’s okay, Don't wait here, go around and see if Zuo Wangfeng and the other four are here. If they are here, keep an eye on them secretly. If they make any changes, report to me at any time." Gu Chan only gave instructions in a voice that could be heard by the two of them.

Yuan Jie nodded in agreement and quietly left.

The academician standing on the poetry stage in front, after explaining the rules of the competition, announced that the first competition of the day had officially begun. Then he reached into his sleeve, took out a scroll and held it high. He said in his hand, "Everyone who has signed up to participate, listen carefully. The first competition of this year's poetry competition will be very exciting." It’s simple. I ask everyone to compose a poem based on the painting in my hand. The time limit is one hour. Next, people from the academy will take a roll call according to the registration list. Those who are called will be asked to come up to the stage to receive paper and pen, and then go down. Just compose poems on the spot."

After that, the academician called one of his men and asked him to take out the list and call the names.

As his subordinates called their names, people who came to participate in the competition were standing around. They came up to the stage one by one to get paper and pen, and then came off the stage to find a place to stay and compose poems on the spot.

Those who sit in the high pavilion in front do not need to go down to get paper and pen. Someone will bring paper and pen to them.

Gu Chan quickly got the pen and paper sent by others, and Yan Li and the two dozen rich young men and ladies sitting behind them who came to compete also got the pen and paper.

The old academician looked at Gu Chan and said with a smile, "Lord, you don't have to worry. The academician will not open the scroll until the names are called and everyone has gotten paper and pen. Then you can read the scroll. After finishing the painting, you can slowly come up with the poems.”

“I’m not in a hurry, I’m just here to have fun, and I don’t want to get any rankings. The main thing is to participate,” Gu Chan said with a smile.

When she was studying in modern times, she could be said to be a scumbag, otherwise how could she open a pet shop and take care of those pets all day long! Now that she has traveled to ancient times, she is still asked to write poetry?

Isn’t this nonsense?

So at this moment, she actually felt weak and had no confidence at all.
