Chapter 173: The Prince is really talented
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!"
Several guards at the entrance of the royal palace made a loud noise, and then the originally noisy palace suddenly quieted down, and everyone looked at the position of the door, wanting to see the prince's demeanor.
After Yu Zhiqian stepped down from the carriage, the surrounding onlookers saluted Yu Zhiqian, and after Yu Zhiqian saw it, he nodded and slowly walked into the royal garden.
"Grass Folk ......"
"Wechen ......"
"I've seen Your Highness!"
Among this group of poets, some of them have a slight official position, and some are famous, after seeing Yu Zhiqian, they saluted one after another, and many of them moved very slowly, deliberately slowing down, trying to let Yu Zhiqian see his luggage movements clearly.
After Yu Zhiqian glanced at it, he nodded with satisfaction, found his main seat and sat down, and then waved his hand lightly: "Sit down!" This palace saw me Yu Tang Caizi today, and I was relieved, you can enjoy it! ”
After finishing speaking, Yu Zhiqian took the lead in doing it, and then a small eunuch began to announce the rules of the competition, Yu Zhiqian made a question, and all the talented people used Yu Zhiqian's title to compose poems and lyrics, whose poetry is outstanding, is the leader of this year's royal garden, although there is no fame, but with the caravan after the beginning of spring, it will also be famous all over the world.
For example, Li Bai and others also came to Chang'an in the second year and shined at the Royal Garden Poetry Society, which became famous all over the world.
Yu Zhiqian looked below, it is really full of talents, if all this group of people are cut, the poems that children will have to recite in the future will be at least more than half, when he thinks that he has to recite poems back then, and his parents have to sign the textbook, he can't help but have his eyes light up, in order to relieve the pressure on the children in the future, will they all be killed?
This idea was only a little bold, and it was extinguished by Yu Zhiqian, after all, it is a talent, the children of future generations, just enjoy the hardships you have experienced!
"Your Highness, it's time to ask the question!"
Yu Zhiqian glanced at the talents below, thought about it for a while, and didn't think of a very good topic: "You all have great talents, so let's do it, everyone can play at will, the topic is not limited, whether it is poetry or words, just take out all your skills and write it out, what do you think?" ”
"Good! Great goodness! ”
Many people's eyes lit up after hearing this, and even Cheng Chumo's eyes lit up, and they gave Yu Zhiqian a thumbs up.
"Your Highness, this is in case someone prepares the verses in advance......"
"This is a problem, it would be good to let them compare it again when the time comes, even if they can't make any amazing verses, it won't be too much, the truth and falsehood will be known at a glance!"
"Your Highness said yes!"
The little eunuch beside him nodded and spoke slowly: "The competition begins!" ”
Yu Zhiqian got up and stood up slowly, looking at the group of people below, tsk, the grand occasion is unprecedented, if he can ascend the throne in the future, this group of people is about the same age as himself, choose a few people to enter.
"Su Dongpo should also be brought!"
Yu Zhiqian walked to Li Bai's side and found that this guy hadn't written a word of poetry, and was grabbing the head of the word. ”
"The grass people are exactly, Your Highness!"
"If you don't drink, you can't make poetry?"
After Li Bai heard this, his head lowered, and Yu Zhiqian glanced at it: "Give wine!" ”
Soon a small pot of wine was delivered to Li Bai's desk, Li Bai's eyes lit up, he picked it up and drank it in a big gulp, and then began to wave his pen and ink......
"Bai Juyi!"
"Weichen Bai Juyi! I've seen Your Highness! ”
"Well, yes, keep writing!"
"Du Fu!"
"Grass People...... Keep writing! ”
"Zhang Jiuling!"
"Grass People...... Keep writing! ”
Yu Zhiqian swept around, and finally in the corner, he actually saw an acquaintance, Cheng Chumo didn't know when he mixed in with this group of people, and he kept his head down, so Yu Zhiqian didn't find this guy just now.
"Your Highness!"
After seeing Yu Zhiqian, Cheng Chumo had to raise his head and gave Yu Zhiqian an embarrassed salute.
"Why are you here?"
"Your Highness, I'm here to participate in this year's poetry meeting!"
After finishing speaking, he sat down awkwardly, Yu Zhiqian glanced at the poem written by this guy, and had already written the first sentence: "What a big flower......"
The words are a little better than what Yu Zhiqian wrote, that is, the poems above can't be called poems at all, similar to his father, the two of them have almost zero talent in poetry, and it's good that the poems of four words can be pieced together.
"Write poetry well!"
After finishing speaking, he patted Cheng Chumo on the shoulder, slowly got up and left, and Cheng Chumo continued to brew his own poems.
A few minutes later, Li Bai slowly stood up: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the poem of the grass people has been written!" “
"Your Highness, grass people Liu Yong, the poem is also finished!"
The two men looked at each other and took out their poems.
"Say it out loud!"
"Whoa!"
Liu Yong glanced at Li Bai, and then slowly spoke: "Leaning on the dangerous building, the wind is fine, looking at the extreme spring sorrow, and the sky is gloomy." In the afterglow of the grass-colored smoke, there is no one who will rely on his will.
I plan to get drunk with the madness, and I sing about the wine, and the strong music is tasteless. The belt gradually widened and did not regret it, and it made people haggard for Yi. ”
"Good!"
When a group of girls around heard it, their eyes immediately lit up: "I don't regret it when the clothes and belts are getting wider, and I am haggard for Yi, Liu Yong's poems are really amazing!" ”
After Liu Yong finished speaking, he gave a salute to Yu Zhiqian, and then returned the salute to the girls around him, with a triumphant smile on his face, Yu Zhiqian looked at this guy, the poem was written well, and it could indeed touch the girl's heart.
Looking at this guy's face, Yu Zhiqian nodded slowly: "The poem is good, but if the love between the two is long, how can it be in the morning and twilight!" ”
After hearing Yu Zhiqian's poem, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then burst into cheers: "Okay! ”
This group of people instantly discovered that Yu Zhiqian's short two lines of poetry were actually the same as Liu Yong's poem just now.
"It is said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has great talents, and when I see it today, it is really extraordinary, if the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight, His Royal Highness is also an infatuated person!"
"Although Your Highness's poem is only a short sentence, you can see that Your Highness's talent is learned, how can ordinary people write such poems!"
"Your Highness's Talent ......"
A group of people kept praising Yu Zhiqian, and Yu Zhiqian was a little embarrassed when he heard it, after all, he was plagiarized......
After Yu Zhiqian finished saying these two sentences, there was a guy named Qin Guan's eyes lit up, he didn't know what to write before, he immediately had a rough idea in his heart, and slowly stood up and looked at Yu Zhiqian: "His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”
"You've written it too?"
Yu Zhiqian looked at this guy curiously, it seems that his name is Qin Guan, and he really doesn't know what he has written, after all, his fame is not as big as Li Bai's, and he seems to be a guy who is not in the stream.
"Your Highness, the grass people haven't written it yet, but the grass people are brave, I don't know if Your Highness's two sentences have a full poem......"
Yu Zhiqian was stunned for a moment, if this two feelings are long-lasting, how can it be that Yu Zhiqian doesn't know the specific poem in the morning and twilight, how can he recite the whole poem, and shook his head: "The article is natural, and the magic hand gets it, this poem is just a feeling from the palace just now!" ”
After hearing Yu Zhiqian's words, Qin Guan's eyes lit up: "Your Highness, the grass people are brave, can you complete this poem?" ”
"Yes, as long as you make it up, this poem will be given to you!"
"Your Highness!"
Qin Guan's eyes lit up, he sat down in his place, and began to complete the verses, but he wrote and felt that this poem was not like a seven-word quatrain, scratched his head, and instantly had an idea, and slowly wrote it down: "The clouds are clever, the flying stars spread hatred, the silver man is dark, and the golden wind and jade dew meet, and they will win, and there are countless in the world." Tenderness like water...... If the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight! ”
Qin Guan was struggling to write here, and Yu Zhiqian looked at Li Bai, who wrote a long poem and read it out slowly: "This poem is sent by the grass people, this year is the Shangyuan Festival, and it is another year's festival, the grass people are a little homesick, and they wrote this poem......"
"A pot of wine among the flowers, drinking alone without a blind date. Raise a glass to invite Mingyue, and the shadow becomes a trio. The moon does not relieve drinking, and the shadow apprentice is with me......"
After Li Bai's poem was written, the surrounding fans immediately began to applaud: "It's worthy of Li Bai, I didn't expect Li Bai to be so ......"
"What a poem, worthy of Li Bai, this poem is really wonderful......"
After reading it, Yu Zhiqian nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, raise a glass to invite Mingyue, and the three of them will be shadowed, it seems that Li Dacai is also a lonely person, alone in a foreign land as a stranger, thinking of relatives every festival, writing well!" ”
Yu Zhiqian unknowingly copied another person, Wang Wei, who was not far away, heard this poem, his eyes lit up, and he immediately got up: "Your Highness is a good writer, a good sentence, alone in a foreign land as a stranger, every festival is more than homesick!" ”
After finishing speaking, he handed over the poem he had written: "Your Highness, this is a poem written by the grass people!" ”
A group of poets slowly took out all the poems they wrote, and Du Fu and others wrote them well, Yu Zhiqian nodded with satisfaction after reading it: "Okay, now everyone starts voting, whoever gets the most votes will be the first place in this year's Royal Garden Poetry Club!" ”
"Vote?"
Yu Zhiqian smiled, motioned to his subordinates to take out the prepared bills, and gave one to each of the people around the onlookers: "Since this poetry meeting is to enjoy with the people, it should be allowed to participate in it, and the people think that good poems are really good, so every citizen has a chance to vote, and they only need to put their ballots on the desk!" The winner with the most votes is the winner! ”
Yu Zhiqian asked about every poetry meeting before, and found that the person who won the championship at the end of every year would be controversial, Yu Zhiqian finally thought of this method of voting, let the people around him vote, whoever has more votes is the champion, and there can be no opinion!
Hearing Yu Zhiqian's words, many people's eyes lit up, and many literati looked at each other, and finally nodded: "That's very good!" ”
"Your Highness, the grass people have made up for it!"
At this time, a person named Qin Guan suddenly stood up and waved the paper in his hand! ”
"Written?"
"Your Highness, the grass people have completed the two lines of His Highness's poems!"
"Read!"
"The grass people are ugly!"
After finishing speaking, Qin Guan slowly stood up: "Xianyun is tricky...... If the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight! ”
Yu Zhiqian's eyes lit up after hearing it, this poem seemed to be similar to what he had read before, and he couldn't help but look at Qin Guan, could this guy be the original author of this poem?
"Voting begins!"
A small episode, the people began to line up to vote, the first one to walk in was a girl, staring at Liu Yong with a little star in her eyes, Liu Yong had a smile on her face, this girl stared at Liu Yong, walked in front of Liu Yong with affection, and then slowly put the vote in front of Yu Zhiqian.
"Well, this palace will not participate in this vote, you choose the talents here!"
After hearing Yu Zhiqian's words, the surrounding people were immediately unhappy: "Your Highness, the grass people are brave, you also made two lines of poetry, it is inappropriate not to participate!" ”
"Yes, His Highness has also written poetry......
A group of people kept shouting, and after Yu Zhiqian saw it, he coughed lightly: "Okay, the will of the people cannot be violated, and you can also vote for this palace, but you can't vote for this palace just because this palace is the prince, you must uphold fairness and openness!" ”
"Good!"
The voting continued, and the second one who came up was a family member from Cheng Mansion, walked up to Cheng Chumo, and put a ticket in front of Cheng Chumo: "Childe, come on!" ”
Cheng Chumo looked at the poem he made, it was a big flower, white like a plum blossom. Snow with plum blossoms,...... The last five words haven't been written yet, I really can't think of it, compared to his father, it's still a little worse, at least Cheng Biting Jin's husband can still write a book and a limerick poem.
"This palace participates in the vote, and this vote should almost be mine alone!"
Yu Zhiqian looked at the three or four votes in front of him, and couldn't help but laugh proudly, he didn't have any unspoken rules, it was thrown to him by the people.
But soon, Yu Zhiqian couldn't laugh, Liu Yong, Li Bai, Du Fu, and Wang Wei far exceeded Yu Zhiqian's votes.
"The people are still very just!"
Yu Zhiqian looked at the few votes in front of him, and coughed lightly, sure enough, it is better not to participate in this kind of voting competition, after all, as a prince, you have participated in too many votes, and others will not say that it is your strength, but because of your identity as the prince.
If you get few votes, the prince's face can't be hanged, after all, it's the prince......
"Your Highness, do you want to find someone to vote for Your Highness?"
Shen Wansan beside him saw that something was wrong with Yu Zhiqian, and said in a low voice.
"This competition is fair and just, how can you mess with the rules!"
"Whoa!"
After the voting ended, Yu Zhiqian looked at the dozens of votes in front of him, and nodded with satisfaction, there are a lot of them, but they are not much, in this way, they will not win the championship because of too many votes, and they will not be embarrassed because of too few votes!
"It's all said, this competition is fair and just!"
Yu Zhiqian glanced at Shen Wansan dissatisfied, but in his heart, he had a higher evaluation of Shen Wansan.
