I have a dual system of medicine and poison
Chapter 9 Bet
I heard that Wang Naya agreed to Yunlan’s bet.
The four young masters were also looking forward to it. They believed in her and supported her.
"I wonder what the content of this assessment is? Can you tell me something?"
Wang Naya asked.
"Writing poetry is to test the literary level of scholars, and ten outstanding works will be selected from hundreds of people."
"Those at the top of the rankings can choose to enter all floors of the First Floor. The lower your ranking, the fewer floors you can enter."
Gu Yu answered patiently.
"Then after you are qualified to enter the First Floor, can you keep reading books?"
"Everyone has only one chance to pass the assessment each year. In that year, they can read a year's worth of books in First Floor. If they want to read again in the second year, they have to take the assessment again."
"Oh...I see. Thank you for clearing up my confusion, young master."
"The four of us have also participated in the assessment for several years. In the previous few years, we were able to enter the First Floor to borrow classics, and we will continue to come here this year."
Dongfang Jue said with some pride.
"You gentlemen are so talented, Yuyan admires you."
Wang Naya thought about it and realized that she had forgotten some of the 300 Tang poems she had memorized before, so her consciousness immediately entered the system.
"System, can you help me retrieve my modern memories? I want to read all my memories about the Three Hundred Tang Poems."
"All of the host's memory systems have been fully stored and are now being analyzed for you..."
"This way, there will be no worries. If we use the ancient Tang poems, there will definitely be few rivals in this alien world. It will be easy to deal with Yun Lan."
"Host, the system has read more than a hundred Tang poems from your previous memories, and is now beginning to transmit them back to the host's consciousness."
After a while, more than a hundred Tang poems had entered my mind.
Recalling the Tang poems, I can't help but feel emotional about how broad and profound our Chinese culture is.
Let these poems help me!
"But system, my calligraphy is ugly, and I can't read some traditional Chinese characters in this world. If I want to write, I will be exposed."
"Host, please try to avoid writing calligraphy. Find some time to practice it."
"I have to think of a way to write without a brush in the next test. I have to find something to replace the brush. It would be great if I had a charcoal pencil. The time is almost up and I have to prepare."
Wang Naya stood up from her seat and said to Gu Yu and others:
"I'll excuse you for a moment."
"Where are you going, Miss Wang? Do you need me to accompany you?"
Yan Zihao immediately stood up and asked.
"No need, Master Yan, I'll be back soon."
After hearing what Wang Naya said, Yan Zihao slowly sat down.
They watched her leave, all of them curious about what she was going to do, but thinking that she was probably going to the toilet, they didn't pay any more attention.
He went downstairs, walked up to a maid, asked her for a dictionary, and then asked her if she had any charcoal pencils.
The maid said:
"Is the charcoal pencil you mentioned the eyebrow pencil used for makeup?"
"Can you get me a knife, two charcoal pencils, and some paper?"
"Give me another dictionary and send it to Gongsun Ze's desk on the second floor. I need it urgently and need it delivered quickly. Tell me how much silver you need."
"Okay, I will prepare it as soon as possible. I need to go out and buy some. I need two taels of silver."
"Here, this is three taels of silver. The extra is your reward."
He took out three taels of silver from his purse and gave it to her.
After making the arrangements, he turned and went upstairs.
From the time Wang Naya left to the time Gongsun Ze went downstairs to talk to the maid, his eyes were always on her.
"I wonder what my beauty is going to do."
He thought to himself.
Wang Naya returned to her seat and sat down.
The mood of several people suddenly improved a lot.
"Miss Wang, you're back. The test will start in an hour."
Gu Yu spoke to Wang Naya with tenderness in his eyes.
"Ah."
Nodded at Gu Yu.
Half an hour later, the maid came to Wang Naya with a small package in her hand.
"Miss, everything you want is in here."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. Please arrange for someone to help me clean up the desk."
"I will arrange for someone to clean up for you right away. I will take my leave now."
Wang Naya nodded at her, and after the maid left, she asked Xiao Si, who was in charge of cleaning, to come and clean the table.
"Leave the teacup behind, push the snacks to the middle, and leave a space for me to write."
After hearing Wang Naya's instructions, the servant wiped the water stains on the table with a towel and moved all the snacks to the middle.
The table is large, leaving enough space for people to write and draw on it.
Gu Yu and others watched Wang Naya ordering people to do things, and were curious about the package that the maid brought her.
"Miss Wang, what is this?"
Gongsun Ze asked.
Wang Naya opened the package and said:
"This is the pen I'm going to use later. I have to make it. I don't have most of my previous memories."
"I just remember that I'm not used to using a brush, and I don't remember many of the characters, so I looked it up in the dictionary."
"Oh? A girl wants to write with this pen? That's quite novel."
Gongsun Ze and others watched her put charcoal pencils, a knife, paper, and a dictionary on the table, and the corners of their mouths curled up slightly.
I watched all her movements with great interest, and saw her take out a piece of paper and put it on the table.
Hold the knife in one hand and wrap one end of the charcoal pencil with paper in the other hand, and use the knife to gently sharpen the lower end.
After sharpening the charcoal pencil used for drawing eyebrows, I used it to try to write the word "Ya" on paper.
It was quite easy. After sharpening both pens, I called Xiao Si to take away the garbage.
"Miss Wang, you can use this pen to write like this. It's really novel."
Dongfang Jue found the way Wang Naya held the pen and wrote very novel and started talking.
"Yes, the girl's handwriting is elegant and beautiful, I like it very much."
Gu Yu looked at the words written by Wang Naya, then looked at the person who wrote them, his eyes full of love.
Yan Zihao was fascinated by her serious look.
Dongfang Jue also nodded in appreciation.
"Sir, thank you for your praise. I will take a look at the book first. Please help yourselves, gentlemen."
After saying that, he picked up the dictionary and started reading it. With the system in hand, he could remember everything he saw.
“The system helps me store this knowledge.”
"receive."
It took me twenty minutes to finish reading the dictionary, and I have gained an understanding of the words in this world.
Except that most characters need to be converted to traditional Chinese, the remaining characters are similar to simplified Chinese.
After closing the book, Gu Yu and the others looked at her, but when they saw that she didn't say anything, they didn't disturb her.
Yunlan and the others had been observing this place, watching Wang Naya's every move.
I couldn't help but laugh when I saw her using an eyebrow pencil to write.
"Look at that stupid woman. She is so poor that she uses an eyebrow pencil to write. She even does this in front of the four young masters. It's really embarrassing."
Yun Lan covered his mouth with a handkerchief while laughing, and looked down on Wang Naya even more.
"That's right. Look at her, she's still reading a book. She must be uneducated and is just trying to make up for it."
"With her country bumpkin looks, she still wants to beat Yun Lan. It's really funny."
Miss Li Shishi from a noble family also covered her mouth and smiled as she spoke.
"Yun Lan is a famous talented woman in our Yun City. It would be too much of a compliment to bet with her."
The one who spoke was Liang Xiaoru, a young lady from an aristocratic family.
"I don't think she will be able to write a poem later. She is so shameless that she keeps clinging to the four gentlemen."
Liu Yun, the daughter of a wealthy businessman, glared at Wang Naya fiercely as she spoke. How could a woman like her sit on the same seat with the fourth young master of Yuncheng?
She didn't even have the chance to talk to those gentlemen, and she was extremely jealous.
"Just wait and see. She won't be so proud for long. I will make her lose face today and she will never dare to appear in front of Brother Ze again!"
Yun Lan looked at Wang Naya as if she were a clown, eyes full of disgust, and then looked at Gongsun Ze with eyes full of love.
I was really looking forward to making that woman look bad in front of Gongsun Ze.
"You dare to snatch Brother Ze from me? After this is over, I have to find someone to teach that bitch a lesson. It would be best if she can be killed."
Yun Lan already had a vicious plan in mind.
She is the same type of person as Gongsun Xue, both vicious and extreme, but relying on her good family background, she does whatever she wants.
Many women in the city were badly bullied by her and tried their best to avoid her. The three people who followed her were her number one flatterers.
Before the assessment began, the students cleaned the desks and took out the four treasures of the study - pen, ink, paper and inkstone - from the cabinet under the desks.
The table in Wenxuan Pavilion is specially designed for literati and scholars, and the cabinets under the table are filled with pens, ink, paper and inkstone.
The chess pieces are placed in the cabinet below, and there are many books on the surrounding shelves.
I guess there must be no dictionary among the books placed here, so Wang Naya asked the maid to buy it for her.
The servants took out the pens, ink, paper and inkstone and put them away and then waited on the side.
There were also ten tables and ten chairs in the center of the stage downstairs, on which sat the ten judges of "First Floor".
The shopkeeper of Wenxuan Hall stood on the stage and said loudly:
"Welcome all gentlemen and ladies to Wenxuan Hall to participate in our "First Floor" assessment. There are a total of two hundred people participating in the assessment this time."
“I’m sure many of you here have participated in previous assessments, and there are also some newcomers.”
"The rules of the test are to write a poem related to the topic within an hour, write the poem on a piece of paper, and write your name below it."
"Give it to Xiao Si at the table, and then Xiao Si will present it to the ten managers of the First Floor behind me for review."
"After layers of screening, ten good poems will be selected. The selected poems will be announced in the form of a bulletin board later and included in the collection of poems "First Floor"."
"The next step is to set questions. The ten examiners will write different questions on slips of paper."
"We will put these papers into this small wooden box, stir them, and finally draw out a slip of paper with the topic on it being our topic for today."
The ten judges had already written the questions on pieces of paper and folded them up and put them away. Xiao Si collected the papers and put them in a wooden box.
The shopkeeper walked to the box, stirred it with his hands, took out a piece of paper and opened it. On the paper was written - wine.
The shopkeeper announced the words he saw:
"The note in my hand has a word written on it: wine. Ladies and gentlemen, please start writing poems."
Xiao Si, who was downstairs, started running upstairs to tell others in case someone missed it.
"Wine? Interesting."
After saying this, Gongsun Ze began to fall into deep thought. Gu Yu, Yan Zihao, and Dongfang Jue also began to think seriously.
After Wang Naya knew the question, her consciousness immediately entered the system.
"System, please help me search for poems that describe wine. I'll see which one I should write."
"Searching... Host, please wait."
After a few minutes, the system gave several related poems.
After reading them, I finally chose Li Bai's - Drinking Song.
Since he was going to write a poem about wine, he had to drink some wine, and then pretend to have some insights to write this famous poem that will be passed down through the ages.
Wang Naya called Xiao Si and asked him what kind of wine he had:
"Waiter, what kind of wine do you have here?"
"Reporting to the lady, there are gentlemen laughing, beauties getting drunk, peach blossom wine..."
"Give me two pots of peach wine."
When the four young masters heard what Wang Naya said, they all expressed their agreement.
After a while, the waiter brought two jugs of wine and five wine glasses, opened the lids and filled them up.
Wang Naya picked up the wine glass, smelled the wine, half lifted her veil and drank it slowly.
The wine felt a bit hot in my throat. I licked my lips and said:
"Good wine!"
The four young masters sitting next to her were all stunned. This little mouth was so tempting. Fortunately, they had good self-control, so they picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
Then they sighed:
"It's so pleasant to drink and write poetry!"
"Miss Wang, this is a great idea. After drinking this glass of wine, I've got an inspiration!"
"I'd like to get drunk with the beauty!"
"Beauty, good wine!"
After drinking a few glasses, they put down their glasses and started writing. They wrote for a while, thought for a while, and wrote again.
Wang Naya poured another glass and drank it, thinking about the beautiful poems she was about to write.
Then I drank another glass, my cheeks turned slightly red, and I felt a little tipsy. This is exactly the feeling I wanted!
Finally, I drank two more glasses and the time was almost up.
Choose a longer piece of paper that can be framed for calligraphy and painting after it is finished.
She knew that the poem would cause a sensation once it was written.
After laying out the paper, his mind once again recalled the poem "Drinking Wine":
Wine
Don't you see the water of the Yellow River coming up from the sky, rushing to the sea never to return.
Don't you see Gaotangmingjing's sad white hair, the morning is like a blue silk and snow is at dusk.
Life is full of joy, so that the gold is empty for the moon.
I am born to be useful, and come back when my wealth is gone.
Cooking sheep and slaughtering cows is fun, and you will have to drink three hundred cups.
Master Cen, Dan Qiusheng, will be drinking, not stop drinking.
A song with Junge, please listen to me.
Bells, drums, and jade are not expensive, I hope I’m drunk and don’t want to wake up.
In ancient times, the saints and sages were lonely, and only the drinkers kept their names.
In the old days, Wang Chen feasted and fought for peace and joy.
What is the master's word for less money, you have to sell to the king.
I will call my son to go out and exchange my fine horses and furs worth thousands of gold for good wine, so that we can share our eternal sorrow.
I converted the corresponding words in the dictionary, picked up the charcoal pencil and started writing them on paper.
I was so excited that I poured myself another glass of wine and drank it.
I am very excited that such a good poem will be published in this strange world after being written by my hands.
Under the influence of alcohol, the words written are very free and easy, and very beautiful!
When the four young masters saw that Wang Naya had already started writing, their eyes were filled with relief.
