Chapter 300: The Great Contest of the Five Kingdoms (6)
And what about Zhao Gu? He had an attitude of being more vocal than ten thousand voices, calmly telling his opinions, but invisibly refuting the provocations of Prince Jiaojiao and Yelu Longqing. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
He first compared the heroes of the past to the sand in the river, and the history to the river, and pointed out a common sense, that is, no matter how powerful the hero is, he cannot escape the trajectory of history, as if the sand will be taken away by the river after all.
Then Zhao Gu cited the deeds of some famous heroes in history, such as Zhou Yu, the governor of Eastern Wu during the Three Kingdoms period, who rode a white horse to open Wujiang, and fully affirmed the deeds of these heroes.
But at this moment, Zhao Gu's voice changed abruptly, talking about the miserable situation in China after the Eight Kings Rebellion, and recalled the tragic history of nearly a hundred years.
Just these few sentences can show his cleverness, this kind of open-minded posture of first raising and then suppressing, is by no means comparable to the so-called prince of Jiaojiao and Yelu Longqing.
It's not over yet, Zhao Gu's voice suddenly changed again, and he asked everyone the result after the chaos?
When Yang Jian of the Sui Dynasty came into being, it only took more than ten years to end the turbulent situation after the Wuhu Rebellion, and the Han nation finally became the master of the Central Plains again.
Why?
Zhao Gu's words and sentences are analyzed like this, the way of heaven has its own trajectory, even a big hero like Zhou Yu has a day when he dies in the twilight, how can some clowns who jump off the beam last long? Even if they take advantage of the free time to get a fluke, they still can't escape the luck of the Heavenly Dao after all, just like the Hu people who disturb China.
This sentence echoes the first sentence of Zhao Gu's poem, which just confirms the opening of the first sentence, and also directly answers the provocation of Prince Jiaojiao and Yelu Longqing.
Don't think you're very powerful now, my Han nation has experienced many hardships since ancient times, but it still survived after all, is it because the past opponents were not as powerful as you?
Even if you gain the upper hand for the time being, you should not be complacent, because you will eventually lose to us Han people, these are all destined heavenly ways.
In the end, Zhao Gu made a concluding speech, after the destruction of the Qin State, the people of the Chu State can destroy the tyrannical Qin State, and I, the trillions of the people of the Great Song Dynasty, how can there be no people who can deal with and defeat you!
And this sentence is everyone's favorite one!
The Great Song side liked it, but the prince and Yelu Longqing frowned, and it was obvious that they also heard the vigorous patriotic feelings in Zhao Gu's words, which were much stronger than theirs.
Do you want to lose millions of dollars again?
The two looked at each other, and they couldn't help but feel a little bitter in their hearts.
But now it is difficult to ride a tiger, even if they want to abstain, it is too late, at least the millions of money cannot fly out.
The two of them were bitter in their hearts, and the prince gritted his teeth, and finally took out a large bundle of silver tickets and handed them to Zhao Gu.
"Yours is going to be given to me later, right?" Zhao Gu asked Yelu Longqing.
"Yes." Yelu Longqing said: "I am sighing to myself in this game, and the two of you will compete in the next game." ”
The prince opened his mouth, but swallowed what he was about to say, he wanted to abstain, but Yeluqi was faster than him.
Zhao Gu smiled coldly in his heart, and he didn't break it, and continued to say to the prince: "What? You, the initiator of the Five-nation Competition, also want to abstain? So who's going to play the next game with me? ”
The prince said stiffly: "This king will not abstain, we will compare the next game to painting, do you dare?" ”
"Why don't you dare?"
"Okay, let's start now, what do you say bet?"
"Ten million dollars." Zhao Gu said.
“……。” The Prince.
As soon as everyone saw the look of the prince as if he had swallowed a fly, they knew that he had no money, and they couldn't help laughing out loud.
The prince was furious: "I didn't bring so much money, why don't I change it to something else?" ”
"What do you want to swap it for? If the value is not enough, the national government is willing to abstain from voting. Zhao Gu said.
The prince snorted coldly, and took out a seal from his arms, but it was an ancient seal, which was the seal given to the country of Jiaojiao at that time after the Qin Dynasty conquered Jiaojiao.
"What do you mean by that?" Zhao Gu asked.
The prince smiled: "I have already established myself as a country, so naturally I don't need what you Central Plains people give, so I will take this as a bet, do you dare to take it?" ”
Zhao Gu smiled coldly: "I'm afraid that even if you beg me Da Song in the future, we won't give you this thing again." ”
"I can't ask for it." The prince continued to speak hard.
"Okay." Zhao Gu was not angry, and also took out a seal, but it was his own national seal, and said, "I will bet with you with this thing." ”
The moment the Great Seal of the Kingdom was taken out, many officials and scholars of the Great Song Dynasty immediately recognized it and had the intention to stop Zhao Gu, but many people swallowed the words when they came to their mouths.
The prince of Jiaojiao even took out the seal of the seal that had been handed over to the country, and it was clearly determined that he wanted Jiaojiao to break away from the Great Song Dynasty and establish himself as a country, Zhao Gu did not say that he took out the seal of the prince at this time, even if he took out the seal of the king, it was worth it.
As Zhao Gu said, Jiao Guo was very proud at this time, but he didn't know if there would be a day when he would beg the Great Song Dynasty to give this seal again, in order to be able to slap his face happily in the future, the Great Song Dynasty must take back this seal.
The so-called not fighting for steamed buns and fighting for breath, that's what it means.
When the prince took out the seal of the prince in Zhao Gu, his face flashed with joy.
In fact, the thing that Jiao Gu was most worried about at this time was that the Great Song Dynasty would appoint Zhao Gu as the commander and conquer Jiao Jiao, if he could make Zhao Gu lose the Great Seal of the State this time, Zhao Gu would definitely have no face to stay in the court anymore, and the crisis of Jiao Jiao would be self-defeating.
He sent the Great Song Dynasty this time for the purpose of solving the crisis for Jiaojiao, and at this time, he was naturally overjoyed to see that it was about to be completed.
He sneered in his heart, but Zhao Gu ignored him, and ordered someone to go to the kitchen of Wenyuan Pavilion to get a piece of charcoal and draw it directly on a large piece of paper.
The same is true of the prince of Jiaojiao, and when he saw Zhao Gu ignoring him, he also began to paint with a brush.
However, it is said that this painting takes a long time, and it is naturally impossible to wait until one person finishes painting and the other person does it again, which is too wasteful of time, so you can only paint at the same time, and then compete again.
Everyone was puzzled by Zhao Gu's use of charcoal to paint, but thinking that he had always had some strange ideas, everyone also held back the curiosity in their hearts, and when Zhao Gu and the prince finished painting, everyone could know the difference.
Half an hour later, both of them finished painting and put down their pens.
