The scores of the five great scholars made Su Qi'an lose by one point. Everyone present felt regretful and unwilling.
But they soon realized one thing. In addition to the five great scholars, this time there were also the most critical scores of His Majesty and the Ninth Princess.
The two of them didn't score, and until the last minute, it was still unclear who would win.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the propaganda that was read out. The propaganda did not show off and continued.
"After discussion between His Majesty and the Ninth Princess, Your Majesty will not participate in this scoring. The Ninth Princess rated the two paintings as nine points for the Marquis of Dongshan and zero points for the Prince of Incheon."
"The total score of both sides is fifty-two to forty-four. I announce that in the third match, Dongshan Hou wins."
"I don't accept it! Why!"
The propaganda voice fell before the people in the audience fell into excitement. The voice of opposition from Showa Incheon suddenly sounded.
Everyone in the audience could understand Su Xuanyong's decision not to give ratings. As the Emperor of Great Liang, whether or not to give ratings is his family's decision. No one can say anything.
Su Xuanyong's refusal to give points does not affect the scoring standards. What Showa Incheon was dissatisfied with was why the Ninth Princess gave him zero points and Su Qian's nine points.
This is obviously unfair and malicious suppression of him.
"I am not convinced. I request that the paintings of me and Marquis Dongshan be made public so that the people in the audience can see whether my work is worthy of zero points."
Zhaohe Inchuan's words were very thief, but very smart. He did not directly deny the Ninth Princess's suppression of him. Da Liang manipulated him secretly in the literary battle.
Instead, he asked for a public announcement and allowed all the people present to participate in the judgment. Showa Incheon did not expect these people in Daliang to give him high marks.
But it is absolutely impossible for everything to be judged with a tacit understanding of zero points. As long as there is a little doubt or controversy, the third literary battle will not be so easy to fool.
The demands of Showa Incheon were approved by Wenxuan. It was not so much the agreement of Wenxuan as it was the instruction of Su Xuanyong.
After a while, under the supervision of a team of soldiers, the paintings of the two people in the box were taken out and opened.
As the scroll slowly opened, the words on it were read out rhythmically.
The public announcement of the two paintings made most people express surprise, but they were not shocked by how stunning the two paintings were.
But the paintings of the two of them were not what he was good at. Almost everyone in Showa Incheon thought that what he was good at would be calligraphy, but in fact, he gave up calligraphy and instead made a painting.
In a painting specially made for the Ninth Princess, in his painting, a graceful, masked woman looks so vivid and bright among a field of flowers.
As for Su Qi'an's piece, he is not good at writing. It only has four lines of poetry.
"In the sky, I wish to be a winged bird, and in the earth, I wish to be a twig. The heaven and earth will last forever, and this hatred will last forever."
These four lines of poems made many people suddenly realize that it is no wonder that Su Qian was able to stop writing at the last moment almost at the same time as Showa Incheon.
Replacing articles with poems can save a lot of time. To be honest, these four-sentence poems are indeed good poems worth recalling.
If placed among the many poems written by Su Qi'an, this poem should definitely be among the top three.
Although there are only four short sentences, many people remember it for a long time and have to sigh about Su Qi'an's reputation as a talented man.
….
If we study the "calligraphy" art in the third scene carefully, poetry writing can be considered one of them, and it is not beside the point.
However, some literati who are good at writing poems have seen some clues in this poem. The four lines of the poem seem to be neat, but in fact they are not complete. It feels like a broken poem.
But those who know Su Qi'an's past know that when this talented scholar from Suzhou became famous, his poems were basically incomplete.
But just two sentences of the poem are enough for many literati to look up to. In recent years, there have been many arrogant people who want to complete Su Qi'an's poem.
But without exception, any of the completed songs feels out of place and destroys the original artistic conception.
Because of this, Su Qi'an's incomplete poems became even more sensational in the literary world of Daliang.
Normally, they would have praised Su Qi'an's poems without even thinking about it, but today it was different.
His opponent is Showa Incheon, a master who is extremely good at the art of "calligraphy".
Although Showa Incheon did not show his expertise in calligraphy, the paintings he made, even laymen like them who do not understand painting, can still feel the amazingness of Showa Incheon's calligraphy and painting.
Not to mention getting perfect marks, but it is absolutely impossible to get zero marks. This is something that all the people are confused about.
It's not that they deliberately stood up for Showa Incheon. To be fair and consider the facts, this painting should not get a zero score.
One after another, after a while, intermittent discussions sounded one after another. Listening to the discussions, Showa Incheon snorted coldly, took a few steps forward, cupped his hands in front of the sedan chair, and said softly.
"Respected Emperor of Great Liang and His Royal Highness the Ninth Princess, although Xiao Wang is here at Fusang, he cannot compare with the heavenly dynasties like Great Liang. Even if he loses in the third game, Xiao Wang still hopes to get a fair judgement."
"Even if you lose, there must be a reasonable explanation. Although Fusang is weak, as a great country in the Celestial Empire, Da Liang should lead by example instead of being silent. Therefore, I also ask the Ninth Princess to give Xiao Wang an explanation and let Xiao Wang lose. Also lose clearly."
Showa Incheon's voice was very soft, but the people around him heard it clearly.
He did not use his power to bully others, nor did he use any means to threaten others. Instead, he discussed the matter with facts and was well-founded. Even if a thoughtful person wanted to refute or find fault, it would be difficult to find fault.
This is not only the demand of Showa Incheon, but also what the people present are eager to know.
As citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven, they hope more to be well-reasoned rather than to use force to overwhelm others. At the same time, they also want to know the scoring criteria for the Ninth Princess.
Su Fengling, who was sitting in the sedan bed, did not escape. She was silent for a while, and then a faint voice sounded.
"Okay, since Prince Incheon wants an explanation, I will give you an explanation."
Then she turned her head, her eyes fell on Su Qi'an beside her, and a cold voice suddenly sounded.
"Dongshan Hou, they all want an explanation. At this time, I will ask you, do you dare to answer."
Su Qi'an did not escape, took a deep breath, looked directly at Su Qi'an who was only separated by a curtain, clasped his fists and nodded slightly.
Su Fengling also looked directly at her, and then asked, "Marquis Dongshan. How do you like me?"
Su Fengling's words suddenly stopped the people who were having some discussions.
….
Most of them were stunned. No one thought that the Ninth Princess would ask such a question in public. This gave them a greater impact than anything before.
If the people had no time to digest this kind of impact, then a bigger impact came instantly.
A moment after Su Fengling finished speaking, Su Qian's voice sounded.
"Wei Chen likes the Ninth Princess."
"How much I like it!" Su Fengling continued to ask.
"I like it very much, I like it very much, I like it very much. Su Qian likes Princess Ninth."
Su Qi'an's voice, like the waves, crazily impacted everyone's hearts.
Many people thought they had heard wrongly and kept questioning their companions.
Most of the companions around him were also stunned, staring blankly at Dongshan Hou who was confessing in front of him.
There were rumors before that the relationship between Dongshan Hou and the Ninth Princess was unusual and seemed to be very close.
But most people don't believe this kind of rumor, including many powerful ministers.
What is the identity of the Ninth Princess? She is a royal princess and the only daughter left by Su Xuanyong. She is very fond of her.
There must be some relationship between Su Qi'an and the Ninth Princess. The most is admiration and wanting to be used by her. As for going further, don't even think about it.
If nothing else, Su Qi'an is already married. If he wants to marry a royal princess, he has to divorce his wife. Judging from their long-term dealings with Su Qi'an.
They knew very well what kind of temper Su Qian had, and it was impossible for him to divorce his wife.
Because of this, none of the ministers thought about it, but today, these two people actually announced it in front of everyone.
The impact this brought to them was no less than the earthquake in their hearts.
The conversation between the two made the whole place silent. This silence lasted for a long time. I don't know who spoke.
"We really made a profit today. Seeing such a scene, but there is one thing to say, they are indeed a perfect match. The man is talented and the woman is beautiful."
"No, I, the princess of the Great Liang, will naturally marry the military lord of the Great Liang. In terms of talent or talents, no one in the Great Liang today is worthy of being the Marquis of Dongshan."
"That's right, this is my big cool man. I dare to love and hate. What's the use of having high scores and low scores in the third game? In the face of two-way love, it's worthless."
Overwhelming cheers resounded after Ninth Princess and Su Qian said they liked each other.
Basically, many common people can understand why the paintings of Showa Incheon were not favored by the Ninth Princess.
In the face of two-way love, even the top paintings, let alone stunning works, are worthless in the eyes of the Ninth Princess.
A zero score is totally normal.
The mutual confession between the two received blessings from the people present. In their opinion, Su Qi'an's identity and talent were both worthy of the Ninth Princess.
As for how Dongshan Hou handles his own family affairs, it doesn't concern them. What they have to do now is cheer and celebrate.
This is a two-way trip between the military lord of Daliang and the royal princess. If we don’t celebrate this two-way trip, do we have to watch the Ninth Princess marry Fusang? Marrying a small island country far away? Isn't this a joke?
Of course, some people are happy and some are sad.
Under the overwhelming cheers and celebrations, Showa Incheon looked ugly.
Especially when I heard what the Ninth Princess added later: Did you hear that? This is my answer.
It was these words that made Showa Incheon feel angry. It is no exaggeration to say that Su Fengling's words were a humiliation to him.
It was not only his face that was slapped, but also the face of the entire Fusang. It could be said that from the beginning, the royal princess never thought about marrying Fusang.
Showing up today, especially at this time, to do this with Su Qi'an in public, isn't this just a trick on him.
If you knew the result from the beginning and still bothered to engage in some kind of ring competition, what was the point of having a so-called literary fight?
If we really want to talk about its significance, I'm afraid it proves how outstanding Su Qi'an, the military lord of Daliang, is.
On the other hand, he and the Fuso warriors who went into battle have completely become Su Qi'an's foils. This is really too much!
