Zhang Xuan stopped, turned around slowly, stared at Li Bai, and smiled indifferently, "Mr. Taibai, I don't know what to teach?" ”

Li Bai is wild and uninhibited by nature, not afraid of the powerful, and he has no stage fright in the face of Zhang Xuan, who is a powerful minister in the court, he squinted his eyes and said loudly through the wine, "Li Bai is thousands of miles away, and he has heard of the reputation of General Zhang, and he has the reputation of the first genius in Chang'an. However, Li Bai came from thousands of miles away, and when he saw him in person, he found that the name of the general's talent was actually nothing more than that, and he was famous. ”

"It is not yet known how to learn, but this temperament and open-mindedness are a few points worse."

Li Bai's words were neither yin nor yang, neither hot nor cold, and full of provocation.

When the surrounding guests heard this, they were taken aback, and said in their hearts that Zhang Xuan is now powerful, even Yang Guozhong has to give three points, not to mention that you Li Bai is a cloth scribe!

However, it is not surprising that Li Bai is like this. At the beginning, Li Bai entered the court for the first time under the recommendation of Princess Yuzhen, and he despised the powerful and contemptuous, and once "teased" Li Linfu and Gao Lishi in person, even to the emperor Li Longji, and he was not so grovel.

Wan Chun turned his head to look this way, his clear eyes flashed with brilliance, and there was a faint hint of anticipation.

She can't let Li Bai and Zhang Xuan "make trouble" on the spot, she wants to see the excitement.

She is not ill-intentioned, but she is really like this by nature, and she likes to "join in the fun". In her opinion, Li Bai and Zhang Xuan, two talented people in the world, must be quite a wonderful episode.

Yang Yuhuan and Yang Sanjie glanced at each other and exchanged a speechless look.

In the eyes of the two, although Li Bai is a great talent, Zhang Xuan's talent is not much different. On this occasion, under Li Bai's repeated "invitations to fight", what if Zhang Xuan shouldn't retreat and compete with him one by one? If he can suppress the limelight of the poet immortal Li Bai, wouldn't Zhang Xuan's personal reputation reach a higher level?

It's a pity that they don't understand Zhang Xuan's thoughts.

Among the people present, probably only Cui Ying understood that the reason why Zhang Xuan did not respond to Li Bai's "provocation" was not because he was afraid, let alone worried that he would fall in front of Li Bai, but because he thought it was unnecessary.

In fact, with Zhang Xuan's current status, even if his poetry is slightly inferior to Li Bai's, everyone present will give high praise and applause. Because of the power in Zhang Xuan's hands.

This is the same as the emperor and his courtiers fighting poetry, the emperor's poetry is not critical, the key is that who dares to accuse the emperor of poor poetry?

That being the case, why did he bother with Li Bai about the length of the poem?

Apparently there is no point.

But Li Bai is obviously a little ignorant and ignorant of current affairs. is so aggressive, no matter how high Zhang Xuan's posture and deep cultivation are, he also has a little anger, thinking that this person is talented, but in fact, he is a little pretentious.

Li Zhiying was taken aback, for fear that Li Bai's contempt and arrogance would completely anger Zhang Xuan.

Although Li Zhiying feels that Zhang Xuan is also a celebrity and will not be "more serious" with Li Bai because of a little verbal detail, Zhang Xuan is now in a high position after all, standing at the top of the power, and has his own majesty that cannot be provoked or provoked.

Li Zhiying hurriedly glanced at Zhang Xuan, and saw that Zhang Xuan's expression remained unchanged and he was not "annoyed and angry", so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Xuan smiled indifferently, "If you don't write poems and don't fight poems with Mr. Taibai, is your demeanor and open-mindedness not enough?" Mr. said this, Zhang Xuan saw that he had lost the demeanor of the poet of the world. ”

"Mr. Taibai's poetry is peerless, famous all over the world, known as the immortal in poetry, and recognized by the world. Compared with Mr. Taibai, Zhang Xuan's little talent is actually not worth mentioning. Therefore, at today's Shangyuan Poetry Club, Zhang Xuanshi does not want the class to be smiling and generous. ”

"However, the so-called literature is the first and there is no second, this literary and romantic thing has always been that there are mountains outside the mountains, there are people outside the people, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and a generation of new people replace the old people, who dares to say that they are the first in the world, it is pure ignorance."

"Does Mr. Taibai think so?" Zhang Xuanyang pointed at Li Bai, and the corners of his mouth smiled.

Li Bai smiled proudly, "Li Bai doesn't dare to call himself the first in the world, but he is confident that he has never fallen behind in this poem - Bai is willing to compete with the general face to face, and help Niangniang, His Royal Highness and all the adults!" ”

Li Bai is really proud and confident, and the other is deliberately motivated. He finally seized such an opportunity, he definitely didn't want to let go of Zhang Xuan's "touchstone" easily, and made up his mind to fight with Zhang Xuan and borrow Zhang Xuan to fight for the position.

Zhang Xuan's anger gradually rose, but his face was calm and calm.

As soon as Li Bai said this, many people began to cheer, and Wan Chun even grinned and sat there clapping his hands and said, "Yes, General Zhang, there is no evidence, there is poetry as evidence, fighting and comparing is the real ability." ”

Yang Yuhuan also sighed secretly, and said softly, "Zizhan, since Li Taibai has repeatedly invited you to fight, this palace doesn't have to be humble to see you."

Zhang Xuan's eyebrows raised.

He waved his hand, took a few steps forward, and pointed to the crowd of people singing, dancing and laughing in the city tower, and his voice suddenly became low, "Niangniang, Your Highness, my lords, in Zhang Xuan's view, poetry is just a tool for entertainment, just nourish the body and mind; And the person who has learned and the real great realm is by no means a daily dance and writing, reciting poetry for self-pleasure or public pleasure, but should be transformed into a practical action to serve the country and help the world.

"Don't be happy with things, don't be sad with yourself. The height of the temple is worried about the people; Far away from the rivers and lakes, you are worried about it. It is a worry about progress, and a worry about retreat - the worries of the world first, and the joy of the world after the world. Zhang Xuan thought that this side was the great discipline and magnanimity that the Son of Heaven insisted on and adhered to. ”

"Zhang Xuan's wish, the Tang Dynasty is prosperous, the government is harmonious, and the people are rich...... There are tens of thousands of mansions in And, which can shelter the poor people in the world and enjoy their faces - this is the goal and realm that Zhang Xuan will strive to pursue in his lifetime. ”

"As for the matter of poetry, why bother with the short and long of the moment?! What does it matter if it is higher or lower, stronger or weaker? It's wasted and meaningless! Zhang Xuan waved his hand downward, and then looked back at everyone, his eyes were clear, and his voice was impassioned and passionate.

Yang Yuhuan and Yang Sanjie listened to Zhang Xuan's words, and their eyes were full of brilliance and tenderness. And Wan Chun, tilting his head and blushing, muttered, as if he was crazy about the aftertaste.

Li Heng's eyes lit up and nodded secretly.

"The worries of the world are worried, and the joys of the world are happy...... There are tens of millions of mansions in Ande, which can shelter the poor people in the world. Wang Wei sighed, got up and saluted Zhang Xuan, "The general is so realm, so strong, and so open-minded, Wang Wei is ashamed of himself." ”

Xiao Fu and other powerful scholars of the younger generation were waiting to see Zhang Xuan's jokes, and suddenly heard Zhang Xuan's "realm theory" of calm and generous, and they couldn't help but blush, and stayed there.

Although Xiao Fu is jealous of Zhang Xuan, he is not without knowledge. He had to admit in his heart that Zhang Xuan's vision and realm alone were not comparable to him.

Cui Ying's heart was agitated, and she looked up at her husband happily, with a bright look on her pretty face.

There is no need to compare any more poems, the realm of Zhang Xuan and Li Bai is not at the same level at all, there is really no need to compare. Even if Zhang Xuan's poetry is not as good as Li Bai's, it cannot affect Zhang Xuan to become a generation of top ministers of the Tang Dynasty.

Zhang Xuan has the world in mind and aims to assist the country and the people, and his literature and martial arts are outstanding, while Li Bai is just a scribe, and no matter how high his poetry talent is, he still falls behind.

This is the true feeling of most of the people present.

was originally full of expectations for the poetry competition between the two, but after listening to Zhang Xuan's feelings, this expectation faded.

Chen Xilie and other old ministers secretly sighed: No wonder Zhang Xuan is so old that he is in the court, how can such a mind be within the reach of ordinary people?

Li Zhiying sighed secretly and turned her head to look at Li Bai.

Li Bai's face was slightly red, and he stood there in a daze, his eyes flickering.

Li Bai is not an unlearned person, and Zhang Xuan's words naturally moved him deeply. As a result, his original bad impression of Zhang Xuan was immediately reversed.

He originally thought that Zhang Xuan was just good at speculation and power, and belonged to the same kind of people as Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong, but he didn't expect Zhang Xuan to have a sincere mind to help the world.

Based on this insight, this person should not be a traitor. Li Bai looked at Zhang Xuan deeply, and nodded secretly in his heart.

It's just that Li Bai is proud of his talents, and he will quickly update his self-esteem with you, and if he wants to extinguish the idea of competing with Zhang Xuan in his heart, I am afraid that it is impossible. On the contrary, this aroused his competitive heart even more.

Li Bai strode over, waved to Zhang Xuan, and said loudly, "Governing the country and the country, Li Bai is not as good as the general, but this poem has been handed down, and the general is not as good as me!" ”

After speaking, Li Bai looked at Zhang Xuan and smiled proudly.

Zhang Xuan smiled speechlessly, and also smiled helplessly.

This Li Bai is too high-minded, too arrogant, and too empty-eyed.

Although Zhang Xuan has to admit that when it comes to poetry, there are not too many people in the Tang Dynasty who are stronger than Li Bai. Even if you look at history, in this field, Li Bai can be regarded as a top-notch figure.

It's just that such arrogance is still unsociable and out of touch with this era and society.

Zhang Xuan looked back at Li Bai and shook his head slightly.

Li Bai's move must have the intention of "self-recommending" in front of Li Heng, but this kind of personality is okay for literature, and it is very unpleasant to be a person and an official. is so wild and uninhibited, how can Li Heng like it in his heart?

Zhang Xuan shook his head, looked at Li Bai deeply, and laughed softly, "Mr. Taibai's confidence and arrogance really made Zhang Xuan speechless. ”

"There are talented people in the world, such as carp crossing the river, but there are people who are willing to show their talents and are prominent in front of people like Mr. Taibai, while more people are quiet and indifferent and not moved by worldly fame and fortune...... Mr. Taibai must not underestimate the people of the world. ”

Zhang Xuan's laughter gradually became cold.

"Li Bai knows that the general is not a hermit Yuan Poetry Society, why does the general humbly give way to Zhisi?" Li Bai is-for-tat, looking at this posture, if Zhang Xuan doesn't write poetry tonight, he won't give up.

Li Bai said and stared at Zhang Xuan. He was proud, of course, but not so proud. At this point, the reason why he still held on to Zhang Xuan and didn't let go was mainly because he subconsciously wanted to rely on Dou Shi to suppress Zhang Xuan and vent his anger for Li Zhiying.
