Chapter 27 Listing and Food Donation
Li Chengqian uttered the last sentence, and glanced at Li Tai and his henchmen, all of whom had ugly faces, as if they had eaten all the flies that had frozen to death in the snow.
He raised his head and said with a smile: "King Wei, how is this poem by King Lone?" As he spoke, he sat back in the Taishi chair and slowly shook it up.
"Huh?" Li Tai didn't know how to speak.
"Good, really good!" Li Su said loudly.
"May I ask His Royal Highness the King of Shu what is good about this poem?" Lu Chengqing's face was ugly.
Originally, although the purpose of inviting Li Chengqian to compose poems was not pure, if Li Chengqian made good poems, whether they were sincere or false, they would always praise a few words, and it would not be in vain for them to claim to be the heirloom of poetry and books.
But Li Chengqian's last sentence made them all sit in the right seat, and they felt that the flies Li Chengqian said were them.
Feeling humiliated, how can he still have the cheekiness to praise Li Chengqian, all of them have ugly faces, and they are thinking about how to belittle it, just because Li Chengqian is the crown prince, and he is strong and domineering today, and he can't find a hard injury for a while, and he doesn't dare to open his mouth to be bored.
Lu Chengqing is the owner of the ruble, and he is dissatisfied with Li Chengqian, and he was slapped in the face by Li Chengqian as soon as he spoke out just now, and his heart was like eating flies, and after listening to Li Chengqian's poems, he felt that he also ate the food of flies.
Hearing Li Su's applause, he was naturally very upset, and he couldn't help but refute it.
It's just that Li Ke is also a straw bag, and his applause is just out of brotherly righteousness, and he didn't know how to answer when Lu Chengqing asked him, so he had to look back at Li Ke.
"His Royal Highness the Prince's poem is written with a thunderous momentum, writing a lot of pride in the chest, which is heart-wrenching to listen to, and it is naturally a good poem. I don't know what Lu Shilang thinks is wrong?" Li Ke saw that Li Su was being bullied, and his tone was very blunt.
"This is the brother who fights the tiger!" Li Chengqian sighed faintly.
Li Tai disagreed, thinking in his heart that you were incompetent and blamed me for not recognizing my brother.
"Big brother!" Princess Changle had mixed feelings in her heart, thinking about the eldest grandson, and her tears almost fell.
"The third, the sixth, come to the eldest brother to respect you!" Li Chengqian said and drank the wine in the cup, and Li Ke, the king of Wu, and Li Su, the king of Shu, also raised their necks to drink the wine in the cup.
Li Tai was not embarrassed next to him, but he kept changing his thoughts in his heart, and said slowly for a long time: "His Royal Highness the Prince's poem is naturally excellent, but the words are not very elegant." After a pause, he heard a few "uh-huh" echoes outside the curtain before he continued: "Forget it, it's all over, today is the first snow in Chang'an City this winter, just now everyone said that they want to make Ruixue poems, although the poems made by His Royal Highness the Prince are good, but there are also some incorrect words." Why don't we all write some good poems on the topic? ”
Li Chengqian heard him say that his words were not elegant, and thought to himself that it would be good if I didn't say, 'You don't need to fart, and watch the world turn upside down'.
Hearing him say for a long time, he first said that he was not on the right topic, and then said that they still wanted to compose poems, so he said loudly: "What's so difficult about being Ruixue?"
"Why does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still have poems today?" Li Tai's expression froze on his face, which means that you have prepared a few songs.
Everyone outside the curtain heard early in the morning that Li Chengqian's poems were ghostwritten, and they were convinced. Li Tai said for a long time just now, and everyone understands that the poem prepared by Li Chengqian is not on the right topic. As long as everyone composes a few good Ruixue poems today and spreads them out, everyone in the world will naturally know that he is the crown prince and has found someone to write poems on his behalf.
As soon as he heard that Li Chengqian seemed to be going to compose a poem, his head was on the phone, and he didn't know how to react.
Li Chengqian ignored them, and really opened his mouth to chant a small poem:
As far as the harvest year goes, what happens in the harvest year.
There are poor people in Chang'an, and it is not appropriate to have more for Rui.
"Good, good poetry!" Li Su did it with the guys outside.
But this time no one asked him how he was doing, and there was not a single fault with this poem, but they were speechless again, because all the gorgeous verses they had prepared to praise this snow were blocked by these two crosses.
It was very uncomfortable in my heart, but I didn't dare to squirt out, this time not only because of Li Chengqian's identity, but also because they were all officials of the Tang Dynasty. Scholars have always boasted that they regard heaven as their own responsibility, and it is one thing to think in the face of such verses, but they can't say it.
They also want to send Li Tai to the throne, they are the heroes of the dragon, the elders of the country, the rulers of the country, and the rulers of the world.
"The poem of the lonely king has been written, but what about the poem you have written?" Li Chengqian asked slowly with a wine glass.
Everyone was speechless for a while, the prepared poems were useless, and there would be no literary thoughts in this mess.
"King Wei, you hold a poetry meeting, you can't write a poem, right?" Li Chengqian shook the Taishi chair while beating the water dog.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very good at poetry, but my brother is afraid that he will not be able to do it." Li Tai's big pig butt face has turned the color of pig liver.
"Haha" Li Chengqian laughed and looked very happy, Li Tai and his henchmen were like frosted eggplants, wilting their heads.
"Yesterday I said I wouldn't come, but today I saw that it had snowed so hard for a day and a night, and I didn't mean to stop. I'm anxious, if the snow continues to fall until tomorrow, not to mention how many people will suffer in Chang'an City alone?
But look at you, how much did you spend on this banquet?" As he spoke, he pointed at Li Tai with his crutches.
Then he raised his cane and pointed at the party of King Wei outside the curtain and said loudly: "And you, a group of court ministers holding the court's Fenglu, are you going to accompany King Wei to drink and compose poems?"
As the crown prince, Li Chengqian stood on the moral high ground and denounced them, and the ministers outside were speechless, so they had to stand up and bow down to his lesson.
Most of Li Tai's henchmen are literary scholars, who have no practical ability, and they live on a mouth.
Li Shimin was particularly well-known in the late Zhenguan period, so he used these people very much.
Originally, when Li Chengqian started scolding, Liu Xun only had to take the lead in introspection and admit his mistakes, and Li Chengqian, as the crown prince, could only be 'generous' to let go.
However, because they have always despised Li Chengqian's personality and are very disgusted by his scolding, they are unwilling to bow to him, so they gave Li Chengqian the opportunity to continue to play.
"Bring pen and ink!" Li Chengqian saw that the scolding was almost over, and he was ready to take the next step.
The pen and ink were sent, and Li Chengqian hung his wrist and wrote two lines of words on the paper: 'Zhumen wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road. ’
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, what does this mean?"
"This let the King of Wei carve it on a wooden board and hang it on the door of his King Wei." Li Chengqian is domineering.
"Why is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince humiliating his younger brother so much?" Li Tai finally couldn't help it, and said with a hideous face.
"This is what you did, the lonely king just said it clearly, and you felt humiliated, why didn't you feel ashamed when you did it?" Li Chengqian retorted unceremoniously.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, the fourth brother is also confused for a while, so don't hang this word on his door." Li Ke was busy pretending to persuade.
"Yes, eldest brother, it's ...... to have the reputation of the fourth brother," Princess Changle snorted, in fact, she also knew that the fight between Li Chengqian and Li Tai could not be persuaded.
"So what do you say?" Li Chengqian looked at Li Ke angrily.
Li Ke has an urge to scold his mother, you two are brothers, and you are both the sons of your father and the emperor, you two are fighting and let me say what should I do?
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, see if you can change the method of punishment?" Li Ke kicked the ball back again.
Li Tai and his henchmen listened to it and turned it straight to the point, and they were immediately given that they must be punished, just whether they hung it or not. It seems that Li Ke is also a treacherous and cannot be let go in the future.
"Well, I thought in my heart that there would not be so much food for disaster relief after the snow, and if King Wei Tianliang was at the end of his life, he would take out 100,000 stone of grain and send it to the East Palace. These grains are used for disaster relief after the snow, so you can count yourself as doing a little good for Datang. Li Chengqian said with regret.
"The younger brother is willing to donate food." Li Tai gritted his teeth.
100,000 stone grain in the Tang Dynasty is equivalent to 9.8 million catties now, equivalent to about 4,000 yuan in the Tang Dynasty. This punishment was not unsevere during the Zhenguan period, but because Li Tai had been suppressed by Li Chengqian today, he was really unwilling to bow to him and chose to support him.
Li Chengqian nodded, then suddenly looked at the text panel and said, "Then I can't write this character in vain?" Make a sign and hang it at the door of Liu Shenzheng's house. ”
"His Royal Highness the Prince, what does this matter have to do with the ministers?" Liu Xun thought that he was the prime minister, and he came back directly.
"Do you have a reason to come here to drink and write poems with the people's fat and people's ointment?" Li Chengqian picked up the brush and wrote another piece of writing, raised his head and continued: "Your problem is much more serious than that of King Wei, you should be given this one." ”
"Erfeng Erlu, the people are fat and the people are anointed. The people are easy to abuse, and the heavens are difficult to deceive. As soon as Li Ke read it, Liu Xun was almost angry, he couldn't say a word with a blue face, and all the ministers below lamented in their hearts, how could he carry such a demon?
"Take it and make a sign for them, and the lonely king will write a few more, you don't have to worry about it." Seeing that Li Chengqian was about to write again, the ministers below hurriedly begged for mercy: "Please also ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be gracious." ”
"The lonely king has been kind to you, and the people will starve to death." Li Chengqian nodded at them.
"The ministers are also willing to donate food." Everyone knows that they can't get over without a little blood today.
"Keep the covenant, make a book for them, and ask for food according to the account within three days." Li Chengqian said and sat back on the Taishi chair and shook it leisurely.
The officials below became a flood of mourning.
