"The culture of the Celestial Empire has a long history, and it is admired by the surrounding countries. His Majesty would love to have a conversation with the talented men and minds of your country. I have specially ordered me to bring three test questions for Your Majesty to read. If the answer is correct, then these treasures belong to your country. If the answer is not convincing, then please forgive us for not being able to do anything. ”

Finally came, Baili Muyuan knew that he wanted to mention three test questions, so he nodded and smiled: "Envoy, please speak!" ”

The envoy clapped his hands vigorously, and a beautiful woman from Siliu standing beside him handed over a delicately decorated sandalwood box. The envoy said: "The first test question was made by Princess Katila of our country. She knew that the geniuses of the Celestial Empire were good at poetry and songs, so she specially composed this poem! ”

Baili Muyuan heard that Princess Xiliu could still compose poems, and he was immediately interested.

While motioning for the chamberlain to take the treasure box, he thought: Is it true that the champion Tanhua selected by the Present Realm is not an ornament? Compare it to poetry, what is afraid! ”

A eunuch with a dust whisk in his hand stepped forward and carefully opened the sandalwood box. In the box lies a pink and blue brocade paper sprinkled with gold. When I took it out, I saw that there were only a few words in it.

The warbler cries on the shore and the willows make the spring clear and the moon is bright at night.

When the waiter read out the words on the brocade paper, there was silence on the table, and the needles could be heard all around. Everyone was amazed, is this a poem?

The warbler cries on the shore and the willows make the spring clear and the moon is bright at night. Neither a five-character quatrain nor a seven-character poem, which one is this Princess Xiliu singing? I don't even know how to write poetry.

Only Leng Zixi on the side seat understood that this was clearly a back of poetry, and he couldn't imagine that Xiliu would have such a master. She couldn't help but turn her head to look at the outer seat, and saw that the courtiers were all frowning and pondering. Those new champion Tanhua were also silent, and their faces were condensed.

The envoys of Xiliu looked around and couldn't help but be proud when they saw that all the ministers showed embarrassed expressions. He thought to himself that this palindromic poem was ostensibly composed by Princess Katilla, but in fact, the king hired talents from all over the world with a large amount of money, but it was just recorded in the name of the princess, and the purpose was to use this poem to stump the literati and writers of the kingdom of heaven, so that their proud strengths would become the laughing stock of all countries.

He opened his voice proudly and arrogantly: "The princess said that not only the geniuses of the Celestial Empire should read the poetry correctly, but also use the same technique to correspond one by one. Sweeping over the solemn faces of the ministers, he smiled provocatively: "Isn't it possible that no one in the Celestial Empire is good at poetry?" ”

Baili Muyuan's face was displeased, and he turned his gaze directly to the champion of Jinke's new point, and said coldly: "Aiqing, does he have a countermeasure?" ”

When the champion saw that Baili Muyuan had clicked on his name, his heart sank, and he had to stand up hard. "Back to the emperor, this poem should be a palindromic poem. As for the poetic micro-minister, he is trying to figure out ......"

Baili Muyuan snorted coldly and turned his gaze to Tanhua and Bangyan. "What about the two Aiqing? But there are already poems to deal with? The two of them hurriedly lowered their heads and made a thoughtful and meditative gesture.

The Queen Mother on the side seat pondered: "It's a palindromic poem, but it's read upside down." As long as you find the pattern, it is not difficult. Just to respond with the same poem in such a short time. It's a bit difficult. ”

Leng Zixi agrees with the Queen Mother's statement, but can these stump her as a modern person, but now her identity is the fourth stupid lady of the general's family, and it is not appropriate to come forward, otherwise this little problem will not be difficult for her.

Just as everyone was pondering and meditating, Bai Li Lanye slowly stepped out of the table and walked straight in the direction of the envoy. Stand still a few steps away from the envoy. He turned to Baili Muyuan, who was sitting above, and bowed: "Father, please let your sons compose this poem." ”

Baili Muyuan was angry that no one came out to deal with it, and when he saw that his prince took the initiative to ask for help, he said: "Quasi-play!" ”

When the envoy saw that he was a young prince with an elegant and elegant demeanor, he had a few doubts in his heart. Seeing that he was still young, he couldn't help but say, "Can you write poetry at such a young age?" When the time comes, it's too late to make a fool of yourself! ”

Baili Lanye didn't say much, but just reached out and took the brocade paper in the hand of the waiter.

He has a slender body and stands against the wind. Like water and moonlight, it shone on the placket of his earthly clothes, as if shrouded in a faint halo. A clear voice echoed above the Imperial Garden. It was like being cast under a spell, and it touched the minds and souls of everyone in the venue.

"The warbler cries on the shore and the willows make the spring clear night and the moon is bright, this is a palindromic poem of a spring scene. The first sentence takes the first seven words: the warbler cries on the shore and the willows make the spring clear. The second sentence takes the last seven words: willow lane, spring and moonlight, bright night. The third and fourth sentences are reversed: the bright moon and the night are sunny and the spring makes the willows. In the spring of the willow shore, the warbler cries on the willow bank. ”

Seeing that the envoy was dumbfounded, Bai Lilan smiled evilly: "Presumably the princess wrote this poem in the spring, and now that it is early winter, I will make a winter scene poem in response!" ”

Seeing this, the chamberlain on the side hurriedly handed over the paper and ink, he pondered for a while, and waved the pen on the paper.

The faint fragrance of ink is scattered on the snow-white rice paper, and the regular script on the paper is strong and handsome, and it is extremely elegant.

The chamberlain submitted the rice paper, and Baili Muyuan read it out slowly: "The red furnace penetrates the carbon moxibustion and the cold wind to resist the middle of winter." "The red furnace penetrates the carbon moxibustion cold wind, and the carbon moxibustion cold wind resists the middle of winter. Donglong Yufeng Han Carbon Moxibustion Wind Cold Moxibustion Carbon Transparent Red Furnace. ”

As soon as Baili Muyuan's words fell, there was a sound of praise from below.

Respond to spring with winter scenes, and palindrome to palindrome. The palindromic poem, which seemed to be quite difficult, was easily corrected by him. is worthy of being the four learned princes of the Baili Dynasty, and even the champion and others who originally had some prejudices against the Baili Lan evil were secretly admired.

Baili Muyuan even stroked his palms and smiled: "Sure enough, the poem is good, and it is neat, are the envoys still satisfied?" ”

The envoy rolled his eyes and laughed repeatedly: "This is just an impromptu work of our princess, and it is not uncommon for it to come out." If I can answer the second question, I will be convinced. ”

Baili Lanye still looked calm: "In this case, please ask the envoy to ask the question!" ”

The envoy turned back and whispered a few words to the girl beside him, and the girl took out a sandalwood treasure box similar to before. When you open it, the box is full of crystal jade and dazzling pearls. The pearls are generally more than a dozen in size. In the night, the bright yellow luster makes people can't take their eyes off.

"This is the second question?" Baili Muyuan was puzzled. Although these pearls are extraordinarily beautiful, there is nothing unusual about them. I don't know which one this envoy of Xiliu is singing.

The envoy said, "This is not an ordinary pearl, it is a superb saltwater pearl from the Gulf of Xiliu. Naturally bred with mussel essence, each one is priceless. His gaze swept over everyone, and then stopped at Baili Muyuan. Your Majesty, there are only 100 pearls in Persia, and the king has specially ordered me to bring more than a dozen to your Majesty! ”

"I am very grateful for the king's heart!" Seeing that the pearl was so precious, Baili Muyuan nodded and motioned for the waiter to accept it.

The chamberlain had just taken two steps forward, but was stopped by the envoy of Xiliu raising his hand.
