Marrying a village tyrant husband with space, being spoiled by the in-laws

Chapter 478 Get out of the way, I'm going to show off

The Emperor's Birthday had arrived in the blink of an eye, and the entire palace was filled with a festive atmosphere.

Inside the Chaotian Hall, there were loud sounds of gongs and drums, and the sound of drums and horns, making it extremely lively and bustling.

The concubines in the harem, princes, princesses, civil and military officials in the court congratulated the emperor on his birthday one after another. Envoys from more than a dozen countries came one after another and presented the prepared birthday gifts.

Xiao Hongkang sat on the dragon throne, his face full of unconcealable joy.

Such a grand scene, with so many border countries coming to pay tribute, shows that he is a powerful emperor!

After presenting birthday gifts, it was time for friendly competition.

Envoys from various countries were eager to try, and they had been preparing for such a long time, waiting for this day.

The first competition is naturally about literature, even though the university scholars of the Great Chu State are rigid, stubborn and self-willed.

But after a lifetime of studying, I am more than capable of dealing with these people from foreign and small countries.

He won every match against every country beautifully, which made everyone present, including Xiao Hongkang, couldn't help but smile.

The last to appear was the Goryeo Kingdom. An old man with white hair and a white beard came forward tremblingly, supported by two people.

At such an old age, he still needs someone to support him when he walks. It must have been hard for him to come here from Goryeo all the way to the Great Chu.

As soon as he came on stage, everyone in the audience immediately started whispering.

"I heard that Lord Che Renyi is known as the God of Poetry in Goryeo. He came all the way here just to give the Great Chu a slap in the face."

When Yu Suihuan heard this, he looked down on it.

She is really like an old lady putting on lipstick. She may not look pretty, but she has beautiful thoughts.

He stood in the center of the hall, looking down on everyone, and read a poem describing a waterfall.

After the recitation, the people of Goryeo began to applaud and cheer excitedly.

He put all his efforts into this poem, which he polished carefully for decades, and he repeatedly considered every word. Even the King of Goryeo called it a masterpiece of all time.

As soon as this poem came out, even the great scholars of the Great Chu State showed expressions of embarrassment.

It is undeniable that this poem is well written and the words used are appropriate.

It is indeed very difficult to come up with a poem more magnificent than this one in a short period of time. I really can't think of one at the moment.

"My dear ministers, who is willing to step forward and give it a try?"

Xiao Hongkang couldn't help but look at everyone. The Great Chu Kingdom must not lose in the poetry writing competition.

Otherwise, we will be laughed at by all these foreign countries in the future, how can we save our face then?

For a moment, no one dared to stand up. Such a situation made the people of Goryeo even more rampant.

Yu Suihuan couldn't help but look at Xiao Ze'an who was sitting next to him.

"The scholars who taught you all said they were well-read. How come a piece of bad poetry stumped them all?"

Is this a broken poem? How dare the emperor sister say that.

"Royal sister, although I look down on this old man from Goryeo, I have to admit that this poem is really well written. The artistic conception and description are both top-notch."

"It's still very difficult to write a better and more majestic song than his in a short period of time."

Xiao Ze'an also had a solemn look on his face. He wanted to step forward and show off his literary talent, astound everyone and win glory for the country, but his strength did not allow it.

Yu Suihuan thought about it and couldn't help but write down Li Bai's "Looking at the Waterfall at Mount Lu."

The ancient poems I memorized when I was in school finally came in handy.

[The sun shines on the incense burner, producing purple smoke. From afar, I see a waterfall hanging in front of the river. The waterfall drops straight down three thousand feet, and I wonder if it is the Milky Way falling from the sky.]

After writing, she handed the paper to Xiao Ze'an next to her.

"Hurry up and carry it back up here. We can't lose face for the Chu State."

Almost everyone in modern times can recite this poem, which shows how wonderful it is, otherwise it would not have been passed down for thousands of years.

Xiao Ze'an felt his blood boiling as he recited the poem. She was indeed his royal sister. The poem was absolutely amazing!

This momentum and artistic conception are simply unprecedented and unparalleled!

After he had memorized the poem completely, he immediately stood up and walked forward.

"Since the Goryeo envoy wrote a poem about waterfalls, I will also write a poem about waterfalls."

At this moment, everyone present turned their eyes to him.

Judging from his attire, he should be the prince of the Great Chu Kingdom, and there is a hint of childishness on his face. Although he is only in his teens, he dares to stand up and challenge the great scholar of the Goryeo Kingdom.

If he doesn't have real talent and knowledge, he will bring shame to the Chu Kingdom this time.

Some people were worried about him, while others were gloating over his misfortune.

Several university scholars of the Great Chu State also looked nervous. Although the third prince's academic performance was usually good, he did not have a very high level of attainment in poetry composition.

Xiao Ze'an didn't want to see everyone's expressions, so he held his head high and recited the poem "Viewing the Waterfall at Mount Lu".

[The sun shines on the incense burner, producing purple smoke. From afar, I see a waterfall hanging in front of the river. The waterfall drops straight down three thousand feet, and I wonder if it is the Milky Way falling from the sky].

His voice was very loud and his pronunciation was clear, and every line of poetry reached everyone's ears.

For a moment, everyone on the field stopped whispering, but quietly savored these lines of poetry.

"Wow, it's really wonderful, especially the last line, 'The waterfall drops three thousand feet straight down, it seems like the Milky Way falls from the sky', such a huge momentum is immediately superior to the poem just now by the Goryeo envoy."

A university scholar immediately jumped out.

"No, there is absolutely no comparison."

The other was even more excited.

Che Renyi's face was full of disbelief. The poems he had carefully polished for decades seemed like a joke when compared to the poems written by this kid.

"No, it's impossible."

His chest was heaving with anxiety, his legs were shaking, and his hands were trembling.

Yu Suihuan was unwilling to miss this good opportunity and prepared to pursue the victory.

"What's impossible about this? Reciting poems and writing couplets are compulsory courses for all people in our Great Chu State."

"Everyone knows this simple art. They can recite one or two poems at a time. People say that small foreign countries don't have much knowledge. I didn't believe it before, but today I finally saw it."

These people must be taught a severe lesson so that they will remember it. Otherwise, if everyone wants to step on the Great Chu State, it will be a mess.

She stood up and walked forward calmly.

"You are just a woman, what right do you have to speak so arrogantly here?!"

Che Renyi looked down on women. In Goryeo, the status of women was very low, even though the women from the Great Chu State were dressed very luxuriously.

But at the end of the day, women are women.

"I am the eldest princess of the Great Chu State, of an extremely noble status. Women in our Great Chu State are well-read. They can speak eloquently, unlike you. You can praise a ridiculous doggerel poem so much, and you are not afraid of being laughed at."
