"Since you want to humiliate yourself, then I, Lingyin Academy, will help you!"
Wang Chun asked: "Tell me, what kind of comparison, what kind of rewards and punishments?"
Liu Xinnan said: "The six arts of a gentleman are etiquette, music, archery, charioteering, calligraphy, and mathematics. Among them, etiquette and music are too complicated and complicated to compete. Let's compare the other four arts, namely: poetry, riding and archery, arithmetic, and three. How about winning two games?"
Wang Chun asked Cao Guojin and Zeng Hou for instructions, and they both nodded and said, "Okay, it's just these three things. But seeing that you are women, I will let you go. It doesn't have to be two out of three games, as long as you can win." If we fight, you will win!"
Nangong Yue said: "Who wants you to give in? On the contrary, if you can beat us in a round, you will win!"
Zeng Hou said: "Young man, I would like to advise you not to be too arrogant!"
"Mr. Zeng's words are wrong. If you don't have a lot of energy, can you still call yourself a young man?" Song Che said: "As an investor in a girls' school, I will be the one to decide the rewards and punishments - if we win, you can no longer oppose the establishment of a girls' school. School, if we lose, we will immediately close the girls’ school and stop enrolling students.”
He looked at Liu Boyong again: "Master Liu is the governor of Lin'an, and you will be the judge of the competition."
Liu Boyong could only sigh and agree.
"Okay, let's see you at Linjiang Pavilion tomorrow!"
…
Comparing poetry?
There are three hundred Tang poems that can be read casually.
Comparison?
The elementary school math Olympiad questions are guaranteed to be no problem.
Better than riding and shooting?
Born in Jiaofangsi, he is proficient in all eighteen kinds of martial arts.
In today's world, most women are indeed inferior to men, but Nangong Yue and the others are just that small group.
Lingyin Academy is a well-known university in Hangzhou. Although the conservative faction represented by Zeng Hou is stubborn, no one has ever questioned their strength.
Tomorrow's competition must be well prepared. Song Che gathered all the teachers in the school and arranged their troops.
Nangong Yue was once known as the most talented woman in the capital in the past, and Liu Xinnan was also a real flower hunter. Naturally, the two of them took the lead in this first competition;
Counting is best left to people like Shen Wenjun and Qin Ruo who have been exposed to abacus since childhood;
As for horseback riding and archery, it was the most unfavorable one among the three competitions.
If they were only competing in terms of martial arts, they might be worthy, but riding and shooting is very skill-based. They were trained in assassination skills since they were young. Even if they have a foundation in martial arts, they are not completely sure of winning.
Lu Jingxiang's martial arts skills are considered to be among the best among the female relatives, but today when he was facing off against Wang Chun, he was obviously a little inferior.
"I go!"
Lin Yue stepped forward and said, "When I was in Luoyang in the past, I rode a horse race with the prince, and I was a perfect horse. Leave this competition to me, and I guarantee that I will win their obedience!"
"You're four months pregnant, so stop messing around," Song Che pushed her back and said, "We're going to win two out of three games. We just need to win two games. There's no need to fight them to the end. "
"Having said that, in this competition on horseback and archery, it is best to show off our woman's majesty. If we can beat them on horseback and archery, it will definitely frustrate the spirit of Lingyin Academy... We really want to win."
Just when everyone was worrying about who to send to fight, a voice suddenly sounded outside the door:
"Of course I'm going to compete."
Tuya and two shop assistants carried two large baskets of milk tea and walked into the school with smiles.
Today, she has opened six milk tea shops in Hangzhou, and her Hu-style milk tea is a hot seller in the local area.
"Yeah! We forgot that we have a Hu girl in our family." Lin Yue took the lead and threw two cups of milk tea from the frame. This was her favorite.
"No, no, there's only one cup for each person, not much." Tuya took a cup from her hand, "Look at how fat you have become, be careful!"
"Snacks?" Lin Yue's eyes lit up, "Did you bring some snacks? Take them out and let me try them!"
"..."
"At least he is a bachelor who has been famous in the academy for a long time. His riding and shooting skills must not be underestimated. Are you sure?" Song Che asked.
Tuya touched his chest and said confidently: "We Hu women were born on horseback, and we are all good riders and archers. As long as we have a good horse and a good bow, I am not afraid of anyone."
"Our Master Song's family is truly a crouching tiger, hidden dragon."
"Okay! I will go to the military camp and ask General Feng to borrow his war horse and precious eagle bow. Tomorrow, let's see Princess Tuya show off her power! All the people in Hangzhou are very enthusiastic and crowded into Linjiang Pavilion early in the morning. Go ahead and get ready to watch the excitement.
"Dear fellow villagers, in response to today's competition, our welfare lottery has specially opened more than a dozen ways to play. Come and place your bets!"
Of course I have to take the opportunity to make a profit from him!
Today's competition is divided into: riding and shooting, arithmetic, and poetry——
Among them, mounted shooting is held in the square in front of Linjiang Pavilion. Ten targets are set up and arranged on the seawall in a circuitous manner. The nearest target is twenty feet away;
Each side competes with one person, one horse and one bow with ten arrows. They start from the starting point for horseback shooting. The one who hits the most target rings wins.
The arithmetic competition does not count the number of people. Each side sets a question. If both sides can answer the other side's question within the specified time, they will continue to ask questions. If one party cannot answer the other side's question, the one who solved the question will win.
In the poetry competition, the referee Liu Boyong selects the topic, and both parties compose their own poems. Whoever's poem is more clever will win.
Morning time.
Both sides of the horse-riding archery competition took their positions, with red-feather arrow nocks in their quivers; Wang Chun, representing Lingyin Academy, had blue-feather arrow nocks.
"How about I break two arrows and give you a ride? Otherwise, everyone will say that I bully women." Wang Chun said sarcastically.
Tuya didn't bother to look at him. He rode his horse to the starting point, drew an arrow and put it on the string. "Now that you are ready, let's get started. I have to go back to sell milk tea."
Wang Chun hummed softly, drew the arrow and stringed it, at the same starting point.
Even the horses are gearing up.
"The riding and shooting competition begins!"
Following Liu Boyong's order, two fast horses ran out at the same time, and Tuya's string collapsed with an arrow.
"Whoosh!"
Hitting the bullseye from thirty feet away.
There was a burst of boos outside the court.
Why is it lamentation instead of applause?
Because most people are betting that Wang Chun will win.
Today, there are always some gamblers who lose everything.
