Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

……

……

People's words spread to Guo Ye's ears one after another.Whether these words expressed support for him or expressed opposition to him, they gave him tremendous pressure.

If you can write it out, you will be proud and honorable in front of people.If you can't write it, Qin Wang Guoye will probably become the laughing stock of people!

How to do?How to do?

Guo Ye only felt that his head was in a mess at this moment, and he was helpless!

At this critical moment, a voice like a drake's voice suddenly sounded: "Your Majesty is here, and Concubine Yin is here."

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live, Concubine Yin, and Empress Yin Gui!" The people hurriedly knelt down to salute His Majesty Li Er and Concubine Yin.As for the competition, it can only come to an end.

"Exemption, peace!" His Majesty Li Er said with a smile on his face, "I heard that there is a literature fair in the Furong Garden, so I came to join in the fun, and you don't need to stick to the etiquette."

He strode into the Qujiang Pavilion, and naturally took the main seat, with Concubine Yin sitting side by side.As for the others, they can only stand with their hands down.

His Majesty Li Er frowned slightly, and said: "What do you look like standing up? Didn't I just say that? Today I am here to have fun with the people, so I don't need to set those rules, sit down, sit down quickly."

"Observe the order!" The people sat down in twos and threes.

His Majesty Li Er said again: "How far has this essay meeting progressed?"

Li Zhi said: "Let's ask Miss Xu, the host of this literary meeting, to explain it to you."

Xu Hui gave a slight blessing, and said: "I am Xu Hui, and I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

It has to be said that Xu Hui's beauty is astonishing, even if His Majesty Li Er saw it, he couldn't help but lose his mind for a while, and said: "I saw the shadow of Guanyin maidservant from your body."

"Your Majesty is absurd, how dare I compare myself with the empress?"

"It's not on the same level, you two are indeed similar in temperament. It's just that Guanyin's servant girl is more wealthy, and you are more bookish."

Concubine Yin said softly: "Your Majesty often misses his eldest grandson sister, and has trouble sleeping and eating. Why don't you bring younger sister Xu into the harem to talk about the pain of lovesickness."

"This..." His Majesty Li Er was quite moved, but he couldn't be too anxious, and said: "Let's talk about it, today we only talk about the Wenhui, not as much as others. Xu Hui, this Wenhui has now reached the end Which step is it?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the essay meeting has now reached the final stage, and King Qi and King Qin will compete for poems."

"Fighting poetry? What topic? What was the result?"

"With the topic of Furong, the king of Qi has already written a masterpiece, but the king of Qin hasn't had time to write it yet, and the outcome is not yet decided."

"What did King Qi write?"

Xu Hui brought Li You's poem again and said, "Please read it, Your Majesty."

"Peaches and dew seeds in the sky, red apricots planted against the clouds by the sun..." His Majesty Li Er read it again, and said: "The writing is okay. But... Li You!"

"My son is here!"

"Why do you hear that this poem is full of frustration? Why did I treat you badly? Huh?"

"I don't have any complaints, I'm wronged!"

"Injustice? Humph, Furong was born on the Qujiang River, and she didn't complain to the east wind. What is the explanation for this complaint? Is it born at the wrong time? Or is it that you were born at the wrong time? Do you feel wronged by being my son? Do you still want to be crowned king of Qi?" Dissatisfied? Do you still want to be the emperor?"

Li You really suffered an indiscriminate disaster this time.It's true that the implied meaning of this poem is that talents are underappreciated, but it was not written by Li You himself at all.

Li You has a gunman named Gao Zhan, who writes excellent poems.At that time, Li You asked people to write poems chanting Fu Rong, and Gao Zhan took the opportunity to express his hope that the nobles would appreciate his talents.

However, His Royal Highness Qi Wang's literary quality is really not good enough, and he didn't hear the overtones of this poem, but he just felt that the poem was well written.When I got the title today, I borrowed flowers to present this poem to the Buddha.

Now being asked by His Majesty Li Er, Li You also understood.He had no choice but to say: "Uh... this son-in-law didn't mean that. The son-in-law wanted to write good poems and forcefully write sorrows, but in fact his intention was not like that."

Concubine Yin hurriedly smoothed things over for her son: "Your son is so young, and he grew up in a honey pot, so what kind of grudges can he have? It's just for writing poems to express his sorrow, just imitating the ancients, there is no other intention. "

His Majesty Li Er's expression gradually calmed down, and he said: "I hope so. You'er, that's not how poems are written. I also wrote a poem of hibiscus for my father. You should study hard."

"Thank you, Father."

His Majesty Li Er immediately picked up his pen and wrote a five-character poem: play with Fangtang together, and go to the Diaohang hand in hand.The boat moves into fine waves, and the wind disperses the fragrance.The wandering oriole has no fixed song, and the frightened mallard has disorderly behavior.The sound of the lotus is thin and the Chuan is broken, and the song is long in the water.Crows are also dense trees, floods return to Jianzhang.

In all fairness, Li Ertian's poem is far worse than Li You's.

First of all, Li You's poem is "Ode to Furong", but His Majesty Li Er's poem can be regarded as "Picking Furong" at best, and the title is not quite right.

Secondly, it is obvious that His Majesty Li Er's poem is about the hibiscus at the turn of spring and summer.In other words, this poem is likely to be an old work.

Finally, in terms of its literariness, His Majesty Li Er's poem is far behind.

However, despite these three disadvantages, "Picking Furong" is still on the top of "Ode to Furong".

The crux of the matter lies in the author of these two poems.One is His Majesty Li Er, the current emperor, and the other is Li You, King of Qi.Let the people present evaluate the quality of these two poems, is there any need to ask the result?

For a time, people flattered like a tide, blowing up this poem so that the ancients were not seen before and the ones who came later were not seen, it is unmatched through the ages, and it is the best in the world.

Although he knew that people might exaggerate, His Majesty Li Er was still very happy to hear it, and said: "King Qin, you also compose a poem and compare it with me."

Guo Ye was so thieves, he knelt down on the ground immediately, and read a doggerel: "The scenery in the Furong courtyard is beautiful, and I will compete with the king of Qi. There is a scene in front of you, but your majesty will write poems first."

Hahaha~ People roared with laughter.

There is no shame in admitting defeat in front of His Majesty!No one thought that Guo Ye was a literary genius, so he deliberately used doggerel to make up the number.I just thought that he had to do it in order to flatter His Majesty Li Er.

Flattering the emperor, is that still called flattering?Of course not.If it counts, what did everyone do just now?

His Majesty Li Er couldn't help but burst out laughing when he heard this doggerel, and said, "Slippery!"

Then, he said to Xu Hui, "What should be next?"

Xu Hui said: "There will be no more, this is the last question of the Furong Garden literary meeting. Since King Qin abstained, and King Qi's work is far inferior to yours, His Majesty will be the number one in this literary meeting."

"That's it..." His Majesty Li Er glanced at Concubine Yin, and said: "I heard people say that whoever won the first place in the literary society will marry you, I don't know if it is true or not?"

Chapter 2033 Assassination

As soon as His Majesty Li Er finished speaking, the scene fell silent.

Everyone understood that the emperor seemed to ask casually, but the actual meaning was unquestionable.It seems that the number one beauty in Chang'an is about to be included in the harem.

At this time, Xu Hui felt as if someone had poured cold water on his head in the twelfth lunar month, and his whole body felt a chill.

Why?Why?

Could this be the legendary confidante?Just now, I was still looking forward to the beautiful life of marrying into Prince Qin's mansion, how could I become the emperor's woman in the blink of an eye?
