Chapter 177: Go and find that man

The person who can speak in front of Li Shimin is naturally not an ordinary person, this old eunuch is none other than Shi Zhongchen, the number one person in the Inner Service Province!

This Shi Zhongchen is amazing, when Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Mutiny, he should be the one in the palace, and the eunuch who led Wei Chigong and brought it to Li Yuan was his Shi Zhongchen. Because he is very knowledgeable about current affairs, Li Shimin found an excuse and made an exception to reward him with a third-grade official rank!

This Shi Zhongchen is extremely domineering, he says nothing in the palace, but he is a eunuch after all, others can not be afraid, but afraid of the emperor, for Li Shimin, it is modest to see the cat with a mouse, he is simply a dead mouse, and he will not do anything else except put it up!

was yelled at by the emperor, Shi Zhongchen was almost so anxious that he vomited blood, pouted his ass and withdrew from the hall, regardless of his age, he staggered down the steps, and wanted to go to Li Zhi in person. didn't wait for him to go halfway down, and saw Li Zhi coming from afar.

Li Zhi held two pieces of paper in his hand, and thought as he walked: "I can pass the test today, I won't be trained again, right?" ”

Shi Zhongchen sat on the ground, waited for Li Zhi to come over, and said with a crying voice: "Prince, why did you come, it's been more than half a day!" ”

When Li Zhi saw his appearance, his heart tightened, and he stepped forward quickly, saying, "Zhongchen, what's wrong with you?" Isn't it, is it that my father has lost his temper? ”

Shi Zhongchen held on to the white jade railing, stood up slowly, nodded and said, "The emperor is furious, slap the table!" ”

The cold sweat on Li Zhi's head came out when he brushed the ground, and his voice trembled: "Lonely...... I only delayed for a short time, why did my father lose his temper? ”

Shi Zhongchen sighed and said: "It's not because of His Royal Highness, but because of state affairs, these old slaves don't understand and don't dare to ask." He looked at Li Zhi, this child he had watched grow up since he was a child, and his younger brother was serving him in the East Palace, so he naturally loved him in his heart, and said in a low voice: "Just now the emperor asked His Royal Highness what book he was reading, and the old slave said that His Royal Highness is studying Pingxuan, and maybe the emperor will test you to make poetry later!" ”

Li Zhi sighed and said, "Test, test me to be a poem?" I've been reading a lot of poetry these days, but I've not written anything new......"

Shi Zhongchen pulled him by the hand and said, "Your Highness said that it is being studied, and there will be a new work in a few days, so I will delay it first, but I am not in a hurry." The old slave will wait for a while, and the emperor will never speak during the meal, and His Royal Highness can find an opportunity to retire. ”

Eat silently, sleep silently. No matter how big Li Shimin's temper is, he will not scold his son while spraying rice grains!

Li Zhi wiped his sweat and slowly rubbed into the Manna Palace.

At this time, Li Shimin's anger was almost gone, he stroked his chest with his hand, closed his eyes to recuperate, he couldn't afford to be angry all the time, the doctors had already told him to calm his mind, otherwise his heart would hurt even more!

Li Zhi got up the hall, knelt down, and whispered: "The son of the emperor to see his father!" ”

Li Shimin opened his eyes, he didn't like Li Zhi very much, what he liked was another son, but the other son was not born to the eldest grandson queen, and the eldest grandson Wuji had to establish Li Zhi.

Seeing his son, Li Shimin's heart hurt again, he took a few breaths, tried to calm his voice as much as possible, and said, "Zhi'er, why did you come, but you are unwell?" ”

Li Zhi hurriedly said: "Erchen is in good health these days, thank you father for remembering!" ”

"Get up and speak, and sit down beside my father!" Li Shimin pointed to the side of the bookcase, looked at his son coming over, and thought in his heart: "It's a little similar to the queen's temperament, but it's not very similar to me, follow my mother and not my father!" ”

When Li Zhi sat down, he wanted his son to see the recital, but he thought that it was better to forget it, I felt that it was tricky, what ideas could he have, let me live for a few more years, and let him do everything well, so that he could be a king of success!

Li Shimin said: "I heard from the loyal minister, you have been studying Pingqian recently, what are the results?" After a pause, he said: "The knowledge on the level, a lifetime of research, there may not be any results, in addition to cultivating temperament, there is no practical use, in the future, it is better to spend more time on other things, read more "Historical Records", it is good for you!" ”

Li Zhi nodded and said, "Yes, I respect my father's teachings!" ”

"What kind of poems have you made, read them to my father!" Li Shimin waved his hand at Shi Zhongchen and signaled to pass the meal, if his son has a new work, no matter whether it is good or bad, he must be encouraged, if not, take the opportunity to eat, just spare this child, and you can't always train him, he is a big man!

Li Zhi swallowed his saliva and said, "Erchen doesn't have any new works, but he has two new good poems, which are specially presented to my father today!" ”

Li Shimin sighed, sure enough, he didn't make a poem, this kid, how can you say that he is good! He leaned back and said, "Then read it to my father!" He closed his eyes again.

Li Zhi thought about it, his father's expression was wrong, and he had to think to make him happy. He looked at the paper in his hand, changed his position, cleared his throat, and said, "Jiang Shang's general ......"

Li Shimin hummed heavily, thinking: "What kind of poem, what is this, inexplicable!" ”

"The black hole in the well is ......," Li Zhi read out the second sentence.

Li Shimin smiled slightly, a painting appeared in his mind, and he thought in his heart: "Although it is a little inexplicable, it is not bad, and it directly sketches a picture, isn't this the winter fishing in the river!" "When he was young, he led the troops to fight, and he encountered this situation, the army was short of food, and the soldiers went to the river to open ice to catch fish, and shouted on the river, that was many years ago.

Before Li Shimin recalled the eventful years of the past, Li Zhi's third sentence came out: "The yellow dog has white ...... on his body"

Li Shimin's eyes opened suddenly, and he said with a smile: "This is the snow, right?" ”

Seeing that his father was happy, Li Zhi's mood also relaxed, and he hurriedly said: "Yes, it's the scene when it snows!" ”

"The fourth sentence must be the finishing touch, you read it again!" Li Shimin said.

Li Zhi hummed and said, "The fourth sentence is, the white dog is swollen!" ”

Hearing this, the smile on Li Shimin's face suddenly froze, and he was stunned for a moment, which could make him stunned, but it was a strange thing! Suddenly, the Tang Emperor laughed, pointed to the paper in Li Zhi's hand, and said with a smile: "Who wrote this crooked poem?" It was written on purpose to make people laugh, right? ”

Li Zhi put down the paper and laughed too: "When Erchen first heard this poem, he couldn't laugh too much. This poem was written by Wang Ping'an, and it was a poem he created, called limerick poem, but Erchen changed his name for him and called it Ping'an poem! ”

Li Shimin shook his head with a smile and said, "Flat and uninhibited, this is informal." Although they are all secular slang, they are also easy to understand, witty and humorous, which can be regarded as unique. This Wang Ping'an has some ability to compose poetry, well, it should be said that he has some ability. ”

He thought for a while, and then said, "Wang Ping'an? Who is this person, and how does it sound familiar? ”

He is the emperor, there are so many major events every day that he can't deal with them, how can he remember who Wang Ping'an is, and he has never met, and his impression is not deep enough!

Li Zhi hurriedly said: "It's Wang Ping'an of Xuzhou, and his father also gave him a good word!" ”

"Oh, I remember, it's him!" Li Shimin said suddenly: "If it's him, then it's not very capable, but it's not small." I remember that it was he who came up with a new disaster relief method and solved the suffering of the disaster in Xuzhou! ”

Looking at Li Zhi, he said again: "This Wang Ping'an is a talent, you should cherish it!" ”

Li Zhi thought to himself: "This Wang Ping'an is my Du Ruhui!" He nodded and said, "My father is right, and the retainers brought him from Xuzhou and asked him to participate in the banquet of the Double Ninth Festival." ”

Li Shimin nodded slowly and didn't say anything more. At this moment, the imperial meal came up, and Shi Zhongchen commanded the little eunuchs to set the table.

Li Shimin said: "You can recite the next one, and then accompany your father to dinner...... Forget it, show it to your father! "I'm too lazy to listen to my son read it anymore, it's better to read it early!

Shi Zhongchen came over lightly and presented Li Shimin with a pair of chopsticks, and Li Shimin took it, in fact, this means that this is the end of today, and it is no longer difficult for his son!

Li Zhi held the second piece of paper in both hands and handed it to Li Shimin!

Li Shimin took it and looked at it, nodded and said, "The White Emperor is in the clouds." Well, good poetry, not bad, not bad! This is a good poem, a hundred times stronger than what Jiang Shang's general! Qianli Gangneung ...... One day back! ”

The chopsticks in the other hand of the Tang Emperor slipped silently and fell onto the placket!

Whew, the emperor sat up straight!

Li Shimin held the paper in both hands and read: "The apes on both sides of the strait can't stop crying, and the light boat has passed...... Ten Thousand Mountains! After reading the four sentences, I was silent!

Li Zhi's eyes widened, looking at his father, and thinking: "Good poetry, good poetry, good poetry!" ”

Slammed the slap on the table, and the emperor exclaimed, "Good poetry, good poetry, good poetry!" ”

The sound is loud and loud, and the whole hall hears it!

The little eunuchs and palace maids standing outside couldn't bear it, they all turned their heads and secretly looked into the hall!

"Early White Emperor City", the masterpiece of the poet immortal Li Bai. Later generations love like a treasure, call this poem a storm and cry ghosts and gods, and praise it as a tune from God, and so on, but people can't figure it out!

The word "good poetry" has been well-deserved for thousands of years!

The troubles of the Turks were swept away by this poem at this time, and Li Shimin read the poem again, for a moment, and then for a third time! After a long time, he said: "This Wang Ping'an is also talented, and he can make two good poems with very different styles!" Loyal ministers, quickly announce that the king is safe and sound! ”

Li Zhi hurriedly said: "Father, don't worry, these two poems are not made by Wang Ping'an alone, the former one is, and the author of the latter one...... I don't know who it is! ”

Li Shimin was slightly stunned and asked, "I don't know who it is, how can I not know?" So how did you get this poem? ”

Li Zhi said: "It was sent by Yan Liben to his sons, saying that it was obtained by accident, it seems to have been written yesterday in a restaurant, and there is a painting by Yan Liben on that floor!" He recounted what had happened.

After hearing this, Li Shimin looked at the poem manuscript in his hand and said: "It's strange that there is such a thing, who is this person, I must find out!" ”
