My system is 3000 years ahead of schedule

Chapter 32: Prince, do you want an oiran or not?
"Girl, is there a time limit for writing this poem?" Someone asked loudly downstairs.

The maid in red smiled and replied: "There is no time limit. As long as you can write a poem and hand it over to me, I will give it to Miss Bai to read. If it suits Miss Bai's wishes, then it will be considered approved."

"Only those who pass the exam can enter the room and communicate face to face with Miss Bai."

"If anyone among them agrees with Miss Bai, he will become Miss Bai's guest."

After hearing the words of the maid in red, everyone present looked thoughtful.

It seems that not everyone can see what Bai Shu announced. Only those who pass the exam are qualified to have close contact with Miss Bai.

After learning about this, many people present expressed regret.

They all came here for Bai Shuxuan, but you tell me that if they fail the exam, they won’t even be qualified to see Bai Shuxuan’s shadow?

Moreover, it would be too unfair for Bai Shuxuan to pass or fail the test.

Many people think so.

But they had no way to refute.

After all, it was Bai Shuxuan who selected him as a guest, and it was not a serious imperial examination.

As long as you agree with Bai Shuxuan's wishes, you can spend a night of spring with the beauties famous in Kyoto. If this is the case, why do you need a bicycle?

As everyone present's thoughts surged, they stopped talking. Those who had the ability to compose poems immediately bent over the table and picked up their pens to formulate ideas.

Those who have no poetry skills will look around to see if there is an opportunity to find a poor scholar and spend some money to buy a poem.

When the chaotic sounds in the pavilion began to subside and became quiet, the maid in red added with a smile.

"Although there is no time limit for the test questions, Miss Bai's purpose is to select the person she likes and become her guest. If she already has the person she likes, she will not read the subsequent poems."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, and then the sound of rustling pens in the air became more intensive.

There was even a tense atmosphere in the air.

Cheng Guang couldn't help but want to complain about this.

You guys have never been so nervous about the imperial examination, right?
Just visit a brothel, come to Goulan to see the beauties, and that’s all you want to do? ?

Although Cheng Guang was not a historian or a master of ancient poetry in his previous life, he was still an outstanding graduate who had gone through 12 years of compulsory education. He could recite a few famous Tang poems and Song lyrics at random.

He could easily come up with several famous poems with the theme of the moon.

Although this poem is very simple for him, he does not want to take it out directly.

He planned to observe first to see if Bai Shuxuan would make some small moves for him.

Cheng Guang leaned on the railing with his hand and looked down casually.

He found that Wen Qinghe and several students from Dazhou Academy around him were also writing something at their desks. It was obvious that they were here purely for the purpose of announcing the book, and they did not want to find Cheng Guang like last time. It means trouble.

That's right, after all, they didn't know that Cheng Guang would suddenly leave the house.

Being able to meet him in Wanhua Building and Jade Pavilion today was just luck.

Cheng Guang looked around, and then glanced at the maid in red standing in the center. His eyes jumped past the maid in red and looked at the screen behind her.

Looking through the screen, one could vaguely see a dignified and elegant hazy figure sitting behind the screen.

Can't see clearly.

But I think that Qianying is Bai Shuxuan.

Cheng Guang just glanced at it, then withdrew his gaze and fell on Qiao Songshan beside him.

I saw Qiao Songshan holding the brush with a frown on his face, like a child eating with a rice spoon. The ink splashed on the rice paper, blackening the entire rice paper.

"Boss, how should I write this poem? It's too difficult. This question is too difficult. I can't do it."

"It seems that we have no chance with this white letter. If we had known that she would ask this question and compose poems, we could have found a few scholars in advance and composed a few poems with the theme of the month."

When he mentioned this, Qiao Songshan's eyebrows flew up and he felt that his brain suddenly became smarter.

"Speaking of which, we can look for it now. I wonder if there is anyone around here who is willing to sell poems to us."

With that said, Qiao Songshan stood up quickly and shouted downstairs, "I, Qiao Songshan, will pay a high price for poems!! Is there anyone willing to publish poems??"

A loud voice.

It made the originally noisy Jade Pavilion quiet.

Cheng Guang put his hand on his forehead, wanting to pretend he didn't know this person.

Many people stared blankly at Qiao Songshan upstairs with strange expressions.

"What is this stupid guy doing? If he wants to cheat, he won't yell in the exam room. Who can give me the answer?" "You really don't take Miss Bai seriously?"

"Everyone is careful about this kind of thing, so why don't you just flip the table?"

"I don't know if Miss Bai will care about this kind of thing, otherwise the poems I just collected will be useless."

"It doesn't matter if she cares. After all, she didn't verify whether we wrote our poems ourselves or bought them from others."

"That's right, move quietly."

There was a lot of discussion.

At this time, Wen Qinghe, who was downstairs, also heard Qiao Songshan's voice. His face was slightly startled, he looked up dullly, and at a glance he saw Qiao Songshan in the balcony on the top floor.

Taking a closer look, he found a figure exuding a strong aura of nobility beside Qiao Songshan.

"The prince is here too?"

Wen Qinghe murmured to himself.

When Wen Qinghe and several students around him heard Wen Qinghe's words, they were stunned for a moment, and then they all followed Wen Qinghe's gaze and looked up.

"It should be the Crown Prince. Everyone knows that Qiao Songshan likes to follow the Crown Prince the most."

"When I first entered the Jade Pavilion, I heard someone saying that the prince had also come to the Jade Pavilion. I didn't believe it at first, but I didn't expect it to be true."

"Hiss, last time we were almost beaten to death by the two of them because of an oiran. There won't be any accidents this time..."

After everyone saw Cheng Guang and Qiao Songshan, they looked at each other.

Most of them were people who had been beaten by the Crown Prince and Qiao Songshan once last time. They were fine facing Qiao Songshan, but they didn't dare to fight back against the Crown Prince.

If a conflict like the last time happened again, I'm afraid he would be beaten up again.

There is no reason to go.

"Don't worry, it happened for a reason last time. After all, it was us who took the initiative to provoke the prince. Being beaten is expected."

"It's different this time. As long as we don't take the initiative to provoke the prince, we should be fine." Wen Qinghe's somewhat stiff face quickly returned to normal and he smiled lightly.

"Besides, Miss Bai chooses her guests based on their literary talents. Although the prince has a noble status, it is not easy to buy a good poem at the last minute."

"He is hopeless and cannot compete with us."

After Wen Qinghe finished speaking, the other students felt confident and stopped talking and continued writing poems.

Wen Qinghe felt calm, and he was still very confident about winning Bai Shuxuan.

Although there were many people present, including many powerful people like him, and even the prince came to join in the fun, he didn't think anyone could compete with him.

He is very confident in his poetic talent.

His poetic talents were among the best in Dazhou Academy, and he was even praised by several great scholars.

Wen Qinghe already felt that Bai Shuxuan's guest was none other than him.

…………

Let’s talk about the elegant seating area.

After Qiao Songshan roared, he only made the Jade Pavilion silent for a brief moment. In the end, no waves were caused, and everyone was quickly busy with their own affairs.

This made Qiao Songshan a little frustrated and his whole person became decadent.

Firstly, he didn’t know who was good at poetry, and secondly, he didn’t know who to buy poetry from.

Qiao Songshan felt that his plan to help his boss get Bai Shuxuan, the courtesan, had failed.

It really confirmed what I said at the beginning, I really just came here to join in the fun.

Qiao Songshan sighed, as if he was embarrassed to face Cheng Guang again. He sat alone in the corner of the table and drew circles as if he were autistic.

Cheng Guang couldn't help but laugh at this scene and didn't care. Just when he was about to say something to comfort Qiao Songshan, a hoarse voice suddenly sounded next to him.

"Sir."

Cheng Guang turned his head and saw a tortoise slave with a sinister look on his face approaching him. He quietly took out a scroll from his arms and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, do you want an oiran or not?"

"I have a poem here. The poem with the title of the moon will definitely allow you to pass Miss Bai's exam questions and win her favor."
