Speaking of the imperial examination, no scholar would remain uninterested, and all held their breath, waiting for what would follow.
At this moment, Wu Junren paused briefly and looked around the crowd: "Do you know why?"
"Why?"
Wu Junren said: "It's because Qin Siyuan's poetry is too mediocre, lacking any spirit. Lord Sacrificial Officer tried countless methods to teach him, but it gained no improvement.
At first, I didn't believe it, but later, after seeing his poetry, I believed."
Qin Siyuan couldn't help but lower his eyes.
The crowd was in an uproar.
Poetry plays a significant role in the imperial examination. If it's not done well, no matter how solid one's scholarship is, it's hard to achieve good rankings; avoiding falling into the scholar category would be a blessing of Amitabha Buddha.
Everyone felt a sense of regret.
