Chapter 541: The Giver
A few days after the Turks retreated, the Tang State received a letter from the envoys of the Liang State and the Qi State, saying that the envoys of the two countries had set out, and they would be able to come to the capital of the Tang State in about ten days.
After this news came, everyone couldn't help but have some admiration for Li Yu.
He said that after the Turks retreated, the Liang State and the Qi State sent envoys to come, and now it has come true.
Before the envoys of the two countries came, the Tang side had already begun to make preparations.
Since it is a three-country competition, there are naturally some competitions.
And the Three Kingdoms Competition, there are two kinds of competitions: literary competition and martial arts competition.
It is a very simple and direct competition, the literary comparison is better than writing poetry, each of the three countries sent one person out, and then drew the topic to write poetry, whoever is good wins.
Wubi is relatively important, after all, in such troubled times, strength is the most important, and culture is just something that suits the situation.
In the case of Wubi, each country sends three people out to compete, and the person who wins in the end is the one who has passed, which means which country wins, and in the next few negotiations, this country will have more right to speak.
After all, after the Three Kingdoms Competition, the most important thing is to seek benefits for one's own country, such as trade, such as others, and so on.
In the early days of the dynasty, Honglu Siqing raised this question, Li Yuan glanced at the ministers, and said, "I have a lot of talents in the Hanlin Academy of the Tang Kingdom, I don't know if that Aiqing is willing to serve as Wenbi?" ”
The people in the Hanlin Academy are all elderly literati, and when they get older, they have no sharpness, and when they hear this, no one dares to stand up.
Seeing this, Li Yuan couldn't help but shake his head.
"Ding, Huangtu Hegemony released a system task, won the Three Kingdoms Competition, the task is completed, 1000 gold coins will be rewarded, and a lottery will be drawn."
"I'll go, there are so many gold coins." Seeing the gold coin 1000, Li Yu was suddenly excited, getting closer and closer to the Holy Yang Pill Ah, this task must be completed.
Thinking in his heart, Li Yu immediately stood up, "Father, let your sons do it for you." ”
When these words came out, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then someone chuckled.
"In the past, when King Yongde was in the capital, he didn't like to study."
"Who said it wasn't, I heard that I couldn't even memorize the Book of Songs, isn't it a shame?"
"Alas, don't worry, the Holy One won't let him go."
Everyone said this, but Li Yu was not in a hurry, and at this time, Li Qing's brows condensed slightly, and he also stood up, "Father, the minister is willing to do it for you." ”
This is a matter of glory, if anyone wins, it is possible to get the favor of his father and emperor, Li Qing is the best Chinese among many princes, how can he let go of this opportunity?
After Li Qing stood up, the ministers breathed a sigh of relief.
"If His Royal Highness the Green King comes out, then there will be no problem."
"That's right, we all know the talents of His Royal Highness Qingwang, that can be said to be a great talent of our Tang Kingdom, His Royal Highness Qingwang will definitely be able to win glory for our Tang Kingdom."
"That's right, support His Royal Highness the Green King......"
For Tang Qing, the ministers are very confident, Li Yu and him form an extremely strong contrast, Li Yuan's side, after reading it, also wants Li Qing to come out, because he knows his son well and knows that he writes poetry very well.
But at this time, Li Yu said again, "Father, the son has worked very hard during this time, and his ability to write poems has increased greatly. ”
When these words came out, Li Qing suddenly glanced at Tang Yu with disdain, in terms of literary talent, Li Qing is still very confident, just with Li Yu's talent, it is not enough for him to see, compared to compare, is he still afraid?
"Father, the son agrees."
Li Qing agreed, and Li Yuan nodded, "Okay, then let's take ......" Li Yuan thought for a moment, and then said, "Let's take Kabuki as the theme." ”
Kabuki is the song and dance performers of the Tang Dynasty, after they are selected from the people, they enter the palace Yichun Courtyard, learn song and dance, and then perform for the princes and ministers, and sometimes foreign envoys, they will also perform.
Most of the Kabuki are ordinary people, and there are also some family members who have committed crimes, and they have entered Yichun Temple and become Kabuki, so their status is not very high.
Li Yuan couldn't think of a question either, and suddenly remembered the Kabuki who had just gone down, so he took this as the topic.
After Li Yuan finished speaking, Li Qing did not hesitate and quickly wrote a poem.
His song is very good, writing about the grace of Kabuki dances, the tactfulness of their singing, and the joy of the feast, it is a very good palace poem.
After he finished chanting, the ministers immediately praised him.
"His Royal Highness Qingwang is worthy of being a talented son of my Tang Kingdom, good poetry, good poetry."
"It's really a good poem that is rare to see in a hundred years, His Royal Highness Qingwang is really powerful, and it can be passed down through the ages."
"That's right, I can see a poem from His Royal Highness King Qing, and the old minister will die without regrets......"
The more the ministers in the court boasted, the more boundless they became, Li Yuan sat on it and pouted, although his son's poem was good, but it was not so good, and he died without regrets.
When the ministers praised, Li Qing glanced at Li Yu, "It's your turn now, don't say no." ”
Li Yu shrugged: "You underestimate me too much." ”
As he spoke, he groaned slightly, and then groaned
The moon marks of the forbidden gate palace tree, and the eyes only look at the heron.
Diagonally pull out the shadow of the jade hairpin lamp, remove the red flame and save the moth.
After Li Yu's poem came out, the entire hall suddenly quieted down, and there were many celebrities in the court, and after they heard this poem, they couldn't help but be overwhelmed by the artistic conception of this poem.
Late at night, lonely, shadowy, moths fighting fires.
Only these four short lines of poetry make people seem to see the picture of a lonely palace maid in the middle of the night, she is bored, she has even lost her yearning for life, and even things like saving moths, she thinks it is interesting.
Everyone was shocked by the artistic conception of this poem, but at the same time, everyone also frowned faintly, a little uneasy, Kabuki is here to serve the princes and ministers, but Li Yu writes about their loneliness, but sympathizes with them, which seriously does not echo their views and cognitions of this group of people.
Therefore, although everyone thinks this poem is very good, they do not agree with the kind of sympathy that this poem wants to express.
Li Qing immediately stood up, "Father, this poem is very disrespectful, what does King Yongde mean, do you want my father to put these kabuki back?" ”
Li Qing was a little proud, Li Yu's poem would make him a little troublesome, and the person who represented the Tang Kingdom in the war must also be his Qingwang Li Qing.
Everyone looked at Li Yu, and Li Yuan also looked at Li Yu.
"Li Yu, do you have anything to say about this poem?" Li Yuan's expression was a little cold, the dignified prince actually wrote poems for Kabuki, and he sympathized with them, this is a big problem.
The Tang Kingdom is highly hierarchical, and this situation must not occur.
