After hearing this, the ministers were stunned, and Li Jingzhuang's face looked a little ugly, and he couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart that Li Zhen was a little incompetent, originally this matter was about to be suppressed by His Majesty, you don't have to say anything, but unexpectedly, at this juncture, you just came to do it.

And Bai Min and Princess Yanqing were smiling.

Lu Shang shook his head helplessly after seeing this, and even Li Chen couldn't help but secretly blame Li Zhen for not knowing how to advance or retreat.

But the words have been spoken, and there is no room for turnaround.

"Are you really right? I remember that you are young and have allowed you to refuse! Li Chen said with a gloomy face.

A faint smile appeared on Li Zhen's face, he looked at Princess Yanqing and Bai Min and others, and said softly: "Originally, the grass people were reluctant to sacrifice ugliness, but Princess Fangcai and the ministers also said that my Jingnan land is a desolate place for the heavens, and it is also a land of merchants. Today, let the grass people, the son of a businessman who does not learn and have no skills, learn the princess's talent! ”

"Hehe, his mouth is very powerful, but I don't know if it's the same!" At this time, Zheng Hao, who was sitting next to Li Jingzhuang, couldn't help but smile.

"No matter how good Caiwen is, he can't compare to Yangzheng's champion!" Liu Yao leaned over and interjected.

"Hehe, what a frivolous young man!" Li Jingrang stroked his beard and smiled, but his eyes were full of praise.

"In that case, please fulfill it for Your Majesty!" Seeing that Li Chen was silent, Princess Yanqing bowed down and said.

"Hey! Well, let's compare! I just don't know how you want to compare? Li Chen waved his hand helplessly.

Li Zhen thought for a while and said slowly: "I heard that the princess became a poem in seven steps last year, so today she will compare the skills of the princess, but it is not seven steps, but ten steps......

"Hehe, since the seven steps of this palace can become a poem, how can you be afraid that you will not be able to do it in ten steps?" Princess Yanqing sneered.

When the ministers heard this, they couldn't help but burst into laughter, only because Li Zhen didn't learn enough to add these three more steps.

But at this moment, I saw Li Zhenchong Yanqing Princess and said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness Princess, the words of the grass people have not yet been finished, although it is ten steps, the one who does the most poems and essays within these ten steps wins, and this topic is formulated by the princess!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the ministers couldn't help but look at each other, and the first thought that came to everyone's mind at this time was: Li Zhen is crazy.

"You, are you sure?" Li Chen asked with a surprised glare.

After all, if Li Zhen has no conditions attached, he will not be embarrassed to lose, but he has changed the rules with additional conditions, if he loses again, then this person will be considered a big loss, I am afraid that tomorrow it will spread throughout Chang'an City, and the name Li Zhen will become a joke on the streets.

And more importantly, no matter how you look at Li Zhenjia's condition, it is also beneficial to Princess Yanqing and unfavorable to herself.

"Grass people are sure!" Li Zhen nodded in response.

"There's nothing wrong with this kid here!" At this time, Liu Yao pointed to his head and asked with a smile at Li Jingzhuang.

Li Jingzhuang thought for a while and said, "I didn't find anything wrong before, but now I'm not sure!" ”

Bai Minzhong laughed: "Hahaha, what an arrogant junior, since this is the case, the old man also wants to see the young talents in this land of Jingnan!" ”

Princess Yanqing laughed even more, "Since this is the case, then we will take lovesickness as the theme, which of us will come first?" ”

"Her Royal Highness the princess is a thousand gold, naturally the princess comes first!" Li Zhen said with a smile.

I saw Yanqing slowly walking to His Royal Highness, and then took three steps forward, and recited aloud without thinking: "I also appreciate the ice wheel and the painting, and I want to find a wonderful sentence to write the city." The poetry seems to be gone, drunk listening to the beauty and then stroking the kite. ”

Three steps into a poem, everyone could not hide the praise on their faces, and they nodded to Princess Yanqing in respect, for fear of destroying the poet's train of thought, so no one echoed and praised.

After a poem, Yanqing took two steps forward and recited: "The oblique geese go to the clouds, and the sun, the sun, the evening, and the autumn thoughts are the same." Chongyang doesn't ask about chrysanthemums, only a few leaves of the maple forest. ”

As soon as this poem came out, Li Jingzhuang on the side couldn't help but sigh in a low voice: "I'm afraid Li Zhen's face is going to be lost this time!" ”

Five steps and two poems, Princess Yanqing has greatly surprised everyone, and her poetry talent is rare to look at the Tang Dynasty.

And Li Chen's face became more and more gloomy.

Just when everyone was amazed, they saw Princess Yanqing take two steps forward again, and after a little thought, she recited: "Yinhan is silent in the moon and the sky, and the long wind is mighty and sleeps with people." In the third or fifth season, the Beidou is poured, the moon is bright and deep, the clear shadow in the court makes the pavilion, and the jade is cold and the cinnamon fragrance is remnant. Today's Huanbo tonight, the bright moon and yellow flowers and bright moon are still there. ”

After reciting a poem, Bai Minzhong took the lead and laughed loudly: "Hahaha, what a seven-step poem, the last one is seven laws, Her Royal Highness the princess is talented, and the old man sighs to himself!" ”

"It's not just Bai Xiang, I'm afraid that even those of us who were born in Hanlin are ashamed of ourselves!"

"The princess is talented, it's really my luck for the Tang Dynasty!"

Everyone couldn't help but get up and admire, but Li Jingrang and Li Jingzhuang were the two brothers who ate and drank by themselves expressionlessly.

Zheng Hao and Liu Ying glanced at each other, and their eyes showed deep surprise.

Zheng Hao was originally born as a champion, and he is extremely conceited on weekdays, and Liu Ying has always boasted of being unparalleled in poetry and writing, but in the face of Princess Yanqing's move, he still can't help but feel palpitations, and secretly rejoices that his opponent is not himself.

As for those generals, except for Gao Yu, who nodded in appreciation, the others were already drowsy with their eyelids down.

At this time, Li Chen's heart was no longer hopeful, seven steps and three poems, such a strength is the only one in the entire Tang Dynasty.

"It's your turn!" At this time, Princess Yanqing smiled and said to Li Zhen.

"What is this better than? How can this be compared? Pei Tian wasted no time in sneering at this time.

"Hehe, that's not necessarily, if you don't have something in your stomach, how dare you fight? Let's take a look at the poetry of Jingnan talents, I can't say that it can be an eye-opener! Bai Minzhong said with a smile.

When everyone heard this, there was another burst of laughter.

"Li Zhen, if you can't deal with it, admit defeat!" Li Chen also dissuaded at this time, after all, although it was a little late to rein in the precipice at this time, it was much better than walking ten steps.

"The grass people are willing to give it a try!" Li Zhen bowed and replied, and then slightly straightened his clothes and walked slowly to the center of the main hall.

"Alas, this kid is really stubborn!" Wang Guichang couldn't help but sigh softly.

After standing still, I saw that Li Zhen was just frowning and thinking deeply, but he was still unwilling to take a step.

"Why don't you start sooner? Her Royal Highness hasn't thought about it for so long! Bai Minzhong urged impatiently.

"Bai Xiangde is highly respected, why is he aggressive towards Li Zhen's baby? Don't you feel out of place? Li Jingrang said with a cold face at this time.

Seeing this, Bai Minzhong was about to refute, but he saw Li Zhen suddenly take a step forward, and then slowly recited in his mouth: "Lin Que has no intention of smiling at each other, and the sound is far away. I was drunk with lovesickness several times in my life, and finally fell asleep. ”

After chanting a poem, before everyone could react, they saw Li Zhen take another step after him, "The bottom matter recalls the old year for no reason, and the wine is in tears." Sorrowful to Beizhu looked back, turning into the morning and waiting for the dawn smoke. ”

Just when everyone was dumbfounded, Li Zhen had already taken the third step, "Spring Enlightenment is lovesick and far away, and I have been fascinated for a few years." I want to hold a dream pen to rhyme, but I have no poetry to no makeup. ”

After the three songs, Princess Yanqing's face was already blue and white, Li Zhen turned around at this time to look at Princess Yanqing and Bai Minzhong, and at the same time, the fourth step under his feet had already been taken, "Send your heart to the plum blossoms, if you see the vicissitudes of life." The roll is sinking and the winter is getting farther away, and who is taking the spring solstice to brew new tea. ”

"Four Steps...... Four poems, this ......" Li Chen muttered to himself, the expression on his face turned from surprise to disbelief.

"This, is this what he did?" Zheng Hao actually became shocked.

"Hey, don't sleep, don't sleep, look at the excitement, this kid is a little interesting, I like it!" A five-rank military general stabbed the colleague who was sleeping darkly beside him, and whispered excitedly.

And just when the ministers were amazed, Li Zhen had already taken the fifth step, "I can't sleep if I don't solve the problem of reading, and I will waste the orchestra for the sake of writing." After watching the meteors fly overnight, it is a year to retire after success. ”

Obviously, this quatrain is a bit off-topic, but at this moment, these are no longer important, the important thing is that everyone's mentality has changed from amazement to expectation.

Everyone stared intently at the thin boy in the center, wondering if he would make any more wonderful poems.

Sure enough, Li Zhen followed the sixth step, "Han Lian is condensed at the beginning of the year, and the white dew is lined with poetry." The flowers flew away, and the fairy robe floated into a long dream. ”

The seventh step followed closely behind, "The cold comes without a trace to poke the flowers, and the wind and frost are disdainful." The big dream is now lurking, and the Xuanming is holding the handle in winter. ”

The voice fell, and I saw Li Zhen grinning and said, Her Royal Highness Princess Fangcai has made the first seven laws, so the grass people will come to a song of five laws, and then take a step forward: "The spring is deep and the rain is falling, and the personnel are small vicissitudes." Books and swords are of all kinds, the wind and dust have been injured several times, and they are busy with pens, quiet and looking for chapters. Afraid of negative clouds, mediocre poems into the old bag. ”

"The grass people have always admired Tao Qian's style, and now with the rhyme of the first song of "Twenty Songs of Drinking", let's play an ancient style!" Li Zhen smiled, and took the ninth step: "I was young and addicted to drinking, and I sighed every time." The autumn festival red leaves fall, and the meaning is only sad. I haven't woken up in the morning, and I hesitate to do something. The reunion is back on the bed, and the old man returns in his dream. That is, from the fleeting shadow, the temples have declined. If you have a confidant, you will not be disobeyed through the ages. ”

At this moment, I saw that Li Zhen was just about to take the last step, but suddenly saw Li Jingrang shaking his head slightly at himself.

Then he turned around and smiled at Princess Yanqing: "Your Highness, the grass people have lost!" ”

"Lost, lost? Don't talk nonsense! The general couldn't help but exclaim.

At this time, the entire hall was silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on the young man in the center of the hall, it was this young man who had just made himself sneer, and ruthlessly crushed everyone in this hall with his amazing talent, which caught everyone off guard, including Zheng Hao and Liu Yao, who were conceited and talented, including Yanqing, Bai Minzhong, and as for Pei Tian and others, hehe......

One step at a time, nine steps and nine poems, and there is almost no gap in each step, that is to say, these nine steps of nine poems Li Zhen actually completed in one go, both in speed and quantity, and the princess of Yanqing was suppressed to the fullest.

"Good!"

Just when the atmosphere was extremely still, he only heard Gao Biao's praise, and then got up and smiled at Li Zhen.

"Good!" Immediately afterwards, the brothers Li Jingrang and Li Jingzhuang also got up and showed a touch of approval at Li Zhen.

"Good!" Li Chen couldn't help but admire, and then raised his glass to the ministers. A good word says it all.

Immediately after that, the ministers stood up and raised their glasses in praise, and the disdainful look of Fang Cai was gone, replaced by indescribable shock and indescribable mood.

Only Li Zhen always looked at Princess Yanqing's blue and red face with a smile, and from her embarrassed and unappeased gaze, Li Zhen saw a flash of murderous intent.

"Back to Your Majesty, Li Zhen Dacai, this time Yanqing admits defeat!" Princess Yanqing turned around and said to Li Chen.

"Hehe, Yanqing don't be humble, although Li Zhen has nine steps and nine poems, most of what he does has nothing to do with propositions, so he lost! I don't know what the people think? Li Chen quickly regained his previous composure, waved his hand and said with a smile.

"The old minister thinks that what His Majesty said is extremely true, although Li Zhen has great talent, but this poem is not right, so naturally Her Royal Highness the princess wins!" Li Jingrang immediately replied.

"The minister seconded the proposal! Her Royal Highness the Princess wins! ”

"The minister also seconded it!"

They are all old foxes who have been officials for many years, and at this moment, everyone naturally understands His Majesty's intentions, and because of this, they can save a little face for Princess Yanqing, so the ministers are naturally happy to be a favor.

......

"Hahaha! In this case, then I announced that I will win against Princess Shi Yanqing this time! Li Chen was very satisfied with the performance of the ministers, and immediately laughed loudly.

"The princess is talented, the grass people are convinced!" Li Zhen smiled again, and then returned to his seat.

"You kid is really hidden, this time you are out of the limelight, and see that there will be another legendary story about you in Chang'an City tomorrow!" Li Jingzhuang actually reversed his usual cold attitude, and couldn't wait to smile and laugh.

"Well, today's poem will be passed down as a good story by future generations, reward Yanqing with five hundred taels of gold, thousands of silk horses, and three hundred acres of fertile land!" Li Chen smiled, smiling happily.

Then he looked at Li Zhen again and said: "Although Li Zhen was defeated, there is no doubt about his poetic talent, I am very relieved that my Tang Dynasty can have such a talent!" But Li Zhen has not yet been crowned and is inconvenient to give the official, so the Ministry of Rites chooses an auspicious day, and I want to personally crown Li Zhen! ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar, and when the son was crowned in person today, such an honor is afraid that it is unprecedented.

"Your Majesty, it will be an auspicious day in three days!" Li Jingrang was already a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, so he naturally had the right to speak.

"Good! Let's set it in three days! Li Chen laughed, and it was the first time for Wang Guichang on the side to see Li Chen smiling so happily.

thought that he would take this opportunity to suppress Li Zhen, but he didn't want to make someone else's wedding dress, although Princess Yanqing was still smiling, she was moved by murderous intentions in her heart.

Although he is the winner this time, anyone can see that he is really the winner? If this is not the case, why is everyone's eyes still on the Gangneung thief, and why is everyone showing that undisguised flattery to him?

He won, but he was defeated, Li Zhen was defeated, but he was amazing. And that's just the way it is!

At the end of the banquet, Yanqing left in a huff, and Li Zhen came to Li Jingrang and bowed down and said, "Boy Li Zhen, thank you for your advice!" ”

"Huh? Mo Hu said, where did the old man point you out!" Li Jingrang said with a smile.

"Hehe, please allow the kid to send you home tonight!"

"Why?" Li Jingrang said in surprise.

"It's nothing, the kid is afraid that the road to the capital will not be smooth at night!" Li Zhen's face showed a hint of cunning.

Although Li Jingrang looked hesitant, he still did not refuse, when the two walked out of the hall, Li Zhen looked up at the bright moon in the night sky, and muttered to himself: "The play in the hall is over, but the play outside the hall has started again!" ”
