Chapter 104 104 It Turns Out that This Is the Kind of Scholar

Wei Guangde didn't remember many poems that hadn't been published yet. He had calculated them in his mind before. Apart from the "If Life Could Just Be Like First Encounter", which was a must-have for time travelers, it seemed that only the poems of great men were left.

But that thing couldn't be used. He was in a different position and it would cause trouble if he released it.

Of course, there were some others, but they were all famous sentences. He couldn't memorize the whole poem.

For example, he knew there was a sentence "I advise the God to shake himself up and send down talents in all kinds of ways."

Another thing he could remember was the opening song of CCTV's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". He couldn't remember it at first, but he remembered it when he sang it. However, he couldn't use it now because the poem had already been published and circulated. Blatant plagiarism would definitely not work and he would be beaten to death.

Another one is "Farewell". Because there is a song, it can be sung, and the tune is also melodious, so Wei Guangde can still remember it. Outside the long pavilion, the ancient road is full of green grass.

There is also a poem "Poems of Li Bai and Du Fu are passed on by thousands of people", which he can remember in full, but the words are too grand. If he writes it down, people will ask him for two more poems, and he will be a bit at a loss, so he can only put it aside.

To be honest, Wei Guangde feels that he is quite miserable.

How can those time travelers in novels remember so many poems?

He can write one after another without repeating himself.

In addition to poetry, Wei Guangde actually practiced a unique skill. He practiced the four characters "It's rare to be confused" countless times. He knew the person who wrote this character, Zheng Banqiao, who was probably also a master of writing poems, but he didn't write a single poem himself. He just knew these four characters from watching TV dramas, and said they were very insightful.

I remember seeing this saying somewhere, saying that if you can do well in eight-part essays, you can do whatever you want, whether it is poetry or prose.

But when it comes to Wei Guangde, he finds that it seems a bit unreliable.

The person who said this must be not very good, or too good, just talking nonsense.

In the Ming Dynasty, Wei Guangde privately studied the Four Books and Five Classics and wrote eight-part essays, but he tried to write a poem, but he couldn't write a sentence after a long time.

As for learning Gao E to complete one or two poems in his memory, Wei Guangde tried hard, but he didn't know the author's original environment, so he couldn't write it.

After participating in a not-so-good "poetry meeting", everyone returned to Nanchang City at night.

That night, Wu Dong fulfilled his promise to Wei Guangde and really took Wei Guangde to the famous Xinxiang Tower in Nanchang Prefecture.

But what disappointed Wei Guangde was that Wu Dong and his friends only took Wei Guangde to Xinxiang Tower to drink and have fun, not to stay overnight as Wei Guangde imagined.

When Wu Dong dragged Wei Guangde downstairs, Wu Dong whispered in Wei Guangde's ear: "It's enough to come once. If my aunt knew, I don't know how she would beat me up.

Besides, you are still too young and your hair hasn't grown yet. Wait for another two years. There is no rush now."

Zeng Yuanshu and Lao Kan, who came with them, looked at the two with a smile. It was obvious that Wei Guangde was still a little reluctant, but was dragged out by Wu Dong.

After leaving Xinxianglou, Lao Kan did not forget to tease, "Wu Dong, Guangde is a romantic and talented man. There is a saying that goes, oh, right, talented men have been romantic since ancient times."

"Hehe."

Zeng Yuanrui, who was standing behind, just started to laugh, and was hit on the head by his second brother Zeng Yuanshu with a fan. With a "whoosh" sound, the paper fan opened, and he fanned it in a very chic way before saying, "You are too impatient. Your brother is right to pull you down. You are fifteen or sixteen years old. You should learn to be romantic like other celebrities. It's not okay to visit prostitutes at such a young age."

In fact, Wei Guangde followed here because he was curious.

There are no brothels in later generations. They have become entertainment cities and nightclubs. It seems that only Japan still retains custom shops. Wei Guangde is just curious about the ancient brothels. He doesn't actually want to do anything.

The group walked along the long street and soon parted ways because of the different inns they stayed in.

A few days passed in a flash. Just like the last time, everyone was relaxed when the exam was over. As the date of the college exam was approaching, everyone's heart was hanging again, and the tension was getting stronger day by day.

There is no fixed date for the college exam results, that is to say, it is fixed how many days after the college exam, there is only an approximate time, usually between five and ten days.

So after spending the first few days of carefree days, everyone naturally lost the mood to go out and play, and stayed in Nanchang City. They wanted to go to the Imperial Academy when they had nothing to do.

Although they knew that they would not see any results if they went there, they just wanted to go there.

"Min Wenqing, Li Chun, Wan Hongmo, Li Gui, Yan Yingxian, I didn't expect that these five people would become the hot candidates for the first place in the college exam this year."

Zeng Yuanshu and Wu Dong were standing at the door of a gambling house at this time, looking at the odds of the first place in the college exam posted on the curtain outside and pointing and talking.

Wei Guangde carefully looked at the odds of the casinos in Nanchang City for the first place in the college entrance examination. Although there were more than 20 people on the list, it could be seen from the odds.

Although the odds offered by each casino were different, they were slightly different, but in general, the judgment on the competition for the first place in the college entrance examination was similar, mainly the five people they mentioned just now, with the smallest odds.

It can be imagined that the owner of the casino was also very powerful to select dozens of people on the list from thousands of people.

Wei Guangde estimated that he should have mainly judged based on his reputation and popularity among the scholars. After all, if he really had no literary talent, he would not have any reputation and popularity among the scholars.

Wu Dong and Zeng Yuanshu both placed bets on the first place in the current college examination, but one bet on Li Gui and the other on Yan Yingxian. Although the odds were not high, they were just having fun.

As for the other candidates, they all seemed to have placed bets, which meant that he was "clean and self-disciplined". In fact, the main reason was that most of the money at home was given to Wu Dong, and he didn't have much in his hands.

In fact, Wei Guangde went to the brothel several times in the following days. The students and candidates gathered together to drink, and then they would gamble a few more times.

At this moment, Wei Guangde understood that later generations said that people with bad character were "eating, drinking, whoring and gambling", but it seems that in ancient times, at least in the Ming Dynasty, scholars and talented people did not reject these, but enjoyed them.

During this time in Nanchang, Wei Guangde understood how the ancient scholars spent their days. Writing, playing chess, calligraphy and painting were just a way for them to pass the time. Gambling and brothels and pleasure boats seemed to be their favorites.

That is, in this era, the first major cancer of later generations, drugs, had not yet been developed. If someone really made it in this era, I don’t know if it would become a new favorite of these people.

No wonder the Ming Dynasty developed like that later. If no one knew how to make drugs, scholars would have taken over all the drugs. It would be a miracle if the country did not perish in the hands of the civil service group.

Although he thought so, Wei Guangde did not dare to say it out loud.

Just kidding, he would take the civil service route next, and he could not destroy his own stage.
