Li Zhitian thought about it for a long time, and gradually, sweat drops oozed from his forehead, and he still couldn't remember, so after a quarter of an hour, when the courtiers in the hall were talking about it, he finally couldn't hold it anymore, and said: "Your Majesty, this couplet is too difficult, and the ministers can't come out." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Good!" Without waiting for Emperor Chongzhen to speak, Liu Zongzhou stepped forward shamelessly, looked proud, and said: "The old man can't even answer the math questions in the exam, Li Tanhua can't answer them, so it can be seen that his Tanhua itself has water." Turning his head to Chongzhen, he saluted, "Your Majesty, the old minister suggested that Tanhua Li Zhitian be imprisoned and strictly interrogated." ”

"Ridiculous." Wen Tiren jumped up and started the last battle of his life, almost pointing at Liu Zongzhou's nose and scolding: "Lord Liu is not ashamed to speak and slander Zhongliang. ”

He arched his hand towards the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, don't hide it from Your Majesty, the old minister is ignorant." The couplet that Liu Shilang came out just now, and the old minister didn't come up with the next couplet at this time, let alone Li Tanhua. ”

Li Tanhua couldn't help but be nervous when she saw Tianyan for the first time, so she thought that she couldn't do well in this exam. And also.. He looked at a kind of courtier on the field, and arched his hand: "Which colleague made the couplet of Lord Liu just now, you can say it, just let the old man see how many people have matched this simple couplet." ”

Surprisingly, there was no one below who came out right.

Mr. Liu's face suddenly looked a little unpleasant.

"Hehehe, it turns out that your colleagues are as dull as the old man." Wen Tiren laughed a few times, and suddenly saluted Liu Zongzhou again, and said: "Dare to ask Liu Shilang, you should have a couplet for this couplet you came out of yourself, right?" ”

Liu Zongzhou smiled bitterly and said perfunctorily: "That's the old man's whim, just casually speaking, and there is no linkage!" ”

I bought a watch last year.

After Li Zhitian heard his words, he greeted his family and the eighteenth generation of ancestors in his heart, and then knelt down with a dark face and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty. Liu Shilang, Liu Shilang bullied Weichen. ”

Now it's okay, Liu Zongzhou stole the chicken and didn't lose the rice, and a big urine jar was buckled on his head. I couldn't say it clearly, so I had to say gloomily: "The old man will think for a moment and give you the answer." ”

"No need." Wen Tiren smiled coldly, and then said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, please also ask Your Majesty to give an order." Cancel this so-called comical assessment, the minister thinks, it doesn't make any sense. ”

Chongzhen also thought that there was no point, and at the beginning, he also wanted to stop Liu Zongzhou from continuing to take the school exam, however, when he saw Wen Tiren jumping up and down, he had doubts in his heart.

Why is Wen Tiren so nervous, what is he nervous about? Could it be that this so-called first-class and third-class is really boring? Also, although many courtiers distanced themselves from Wen Tiren on the surface, they were between their eyebrows. But he is the only one who looks ahead.

"Go ahead and take the exam." This is Emperor Chongzhen's words, but at the same time, it can be regarded as giving Wen Tiren a face, and said: "Liu Shilang will return to the team, and other ministers will be assessed." ”

However, the scene that made Zhu Changyuan spurt blood appeared, and none of the ministers at the scene took the initiative to come out for assessment.

As a result, it aroused the suspicion of Emperor Chongzhen even more.

The emperor was silent, the minister was silent, and Wen Tiren also sensed the slightest bit of something wrong. The secret path is not good, and it is self-defeating. hurriedly gave Xue Guoguan, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites opposite him, a look, but this thing didn't know what nerves he was doing, he just didn't see it.

Zhu Changyuan saw it clearly in his eyes. Xindao must not let Xue Guoguan take the test, so that something will happen in the exam, and then Wen Tiren is not guilty, and the minister who impeached him will be guilty.

Wen Tiren is not guilty, and he is likely to suffer.

But he was not afraid of suffering, and he walked away. But if it is so easy to let Wen Tiren survive this catastrophe. He just doesn't Zhu Changyuan.

Finally, Xue Guo saw Wen Tiren's eyes, and suddenly realized, he straightened his clothes and was about to get out of the ranks, but he heard a childish children's voice sounding at the back of the hall, and said: "You ministers don't take the test, this palace will take the test." ”

The crown prince Zhu Cihong suddenly ran to the front of the palace, looked at Chongzhen and said: "Father, the son has a couplet, I want to test this Jinke Tanhualang, and I also ask my father for permission." ”

Emperor Chongzhen suddenly smiled.

The crown prince is the son of him and Empress Zhou, who is not only smart, cute, quick-witted, but also commendable in filial piety. Sometimes even mischievous tricks can win his affection.

"Okay, I don't know what couplets Brother Hong'er has?"

In Emperor Chongzhen's opinion, even if this little guy has a couplet, eighty percent of it is seen in an ancient book or taught by Li Shichun, and he can't say anything new.

"Thank you, Father." Zhu Cihong jumped down the steps, walked in front of Li Zhitian, raised his head and pointed at Li Zhitian's nose and said, "This palace is here to test you." ”

Li Zhitian hurriedly knelt down and said, "See His Royal Highness the Prince, and ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to ask the question." But in my heart, I didn't care about it, and secretly said that you are a little child, what can you come up with?

"Good." The prince touched Li Zhitian's head and said, "It's hard for you to cry in this palace, don't blame me for waiting." ”

Of course, Zhu Changyuan taught this secretly, and just after seeing Xue Guoguan almost come out, he thought of a notice, and hurriedly whispered a couplet to the crown prince.

Zhu Cihong couldn't tell whether this couplet was difficult or easy, so he asked Zhu Changyuan: "Don't let people laugh at this palace." ”

Zhu Changyuan immediately said: "Don't worry, I promise to cry about that goods." ”

Therefore, just now the crown prince Zhu Cihong just comforted Li Zhitian, this palace is difficult to cry for you, don't blame me.

"I don't dare." Li Zhitian looked respectful, but he was very contemptuous.

"The upper link of the main palace is: smoke lock pond willow!" Zhu Cihong looked proud for a while and said, "You're right." ”

Li Zhitian listened to Zhu Cihong's couplet, a smile appeared on his face, and he said secretly: Just this couplet, it's too simple.

After listening to this, Chongzhen also felt ordinary, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile, and muttered in a low voice: "Little guy, it's too arrogant." ”

"Good union!" Wen Tiren patted his ass in appreciation, and a chrysanthemum-like smile appeared on his face. secretly said in his heart such a simple couplet, if he can't say it again, Li Zhitian can really go to prison.

The couplet was naturally taught by Zhu Changyuan, and the couplet of Yansuo Pond Willow is known as the absolute of the ages even in modern times, and first appeared in the works of Chen Zisheng in the early Qing Dynasty, that is to say, the people of the Ming Dynasty did not know this couplet.

This is also the biggest reason why Zhu Changyuan dared to take it out.

"Your Highness, the minister is right: Foggy Yueyang Tower." Li Zhitian just thought about it a little, and then came out, I can't say how lofty the artistic conception is, and how much it can be regarded as neat and tidy.

Of course. It was he who thought he was.

"Whew!" Zhu Cihong pointed to his nose and said: "Your pair of bullshit couplets, take a good look, this palace gave you a smoke lock pond willow, are you also calling it right?" ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince. The minister is out! ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince, Li Tanhua has indeed come out." Wen Tiren said with a smile.

"It's not right to come out, this palace said that if it doesn't come out, it won't come out, Zhu Changyuan, you tell him!" The prince couldn't say why. directly threw this problem to Zhu Changyuan.

Zhu Changyuan had a bitter face, and secretly said that you betrayed Lao Tzu again. As a last resort, he got up respectfully, knelt down in the middle to salute Chongzhen, and then said to Wen Tiren: "Wen Gebu." ”

Who knew that Wen Tiren didn't even look at him squarely, and he didn't pay attention to him.

Zhu Changyuan sighed helplessly, so he had to say to Li Zhitian: "Li Tanhua, smoke lock pond willow, Your Excellency really didn't come out." ”

Li Zhitian frowned and said, "Why did your lord say this?" ”

Zhu Changyuan said: "Tanhualang, please take a look at the left side of these words." "Finished. They retreated to the queue.

"Left side, left..." Li Zhitian on the left was speechless.

"Shhhhhh Liu Zongzhou gasped.

Wen Tiren's eyebrows twitched!

"Gold, wood, water, fire, and earth!" Cao Huachun said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really not simple, the left side of the five characters of this smoke lock pond willow is combined, which is gold, wood, water, fire and earth. Hehe! ”

Although it was said that the prince, everyone present understood that this couplet was probably made by Zhu Changyuan.

"Good, good!" Li Zhitian knew that he was defeated, and there was no possibility of coming out, so he glanced at Zhu Changyuan with a pale face, "My lord is so literate." Defeated in the next! There's also a link here.,If the adults can come out right.,I'll serve you in the next.。 ”

In front of the emperor, Li Zhitian's tone was not good.

However. Li Zhitian is not the legendary second ancestor, illiterate, but quite literate, but the Tanhua was indeed bought with money. Seeing so many people in the court attacking him, he knew that there was no possibility of being spared today, so he mocked: "Big fish eat small fish." Small fish eat shrimp, shrimp eat water, and the water falls. ”

Couplets are a kind of art for the whole people, there is no distinction between elegance and vulgarity, although the language is very vulgar, but everyone can hear it, this Li Zhitian is mocking the entire court.

The big fish eat the small fish, but I can't understand it, what I am talking about is that the officials of the court crushed people to death at the first level; Small fish eat shrimp, hehe, a metaphor for officials guarding each other and oppressing the people; The shrimp draught shows that the common people are living in pain. Particularly important is the final touch: the water.

The meaning is also obvious, that is, you people have wronged me, a flat-headed people, today, but there will always be a day when the truth will come out.

Wen Tiren didn't speak, and sighed.

The court officials looked at each other.

After listening to this, Zhu Changyuan was about to laugh crazy in his heart.

Because this pair also exists in modern society, not only is it not a satirical couplet, but it is also a couplet that can make people laugh and cry.

Wen Tiren, Wen Tiren, you deserve to be unlucky.

Zhu Changyuan was silent and looked up at the sky. The prince slowly returned to his queue, pulled Zhu Changyuan's clothes and asked, "Is he looking at you?" ”

Zhu Changyuan whispered to the prince and said, "I'll tell you the next link, you can go." ”

The prince said: "Okay! He got up and came to Li Zhitian, pointed his little finger to his nose and said, "Your pair, this palace can come out." ”

"Hmm!" Liu Zongzhou's eyes lit up, although Li Zhitian's couplet was simple, but in such a short time, he didn't think about it, and the prince thought of it?

Chongzhen clearly saw Zhu Changyuan and the prince cooing just now, and he didn't know what they said, so he said, "The prince is right." ”

Zhu Cihong raised his head, pointed at Li Zhitian's nose with his little finger, said a word, and said: "Listen, the next link of this palace is: your father presses your mother, your mother presses the bed, the bed presses the ground, and the ground shakes!" (To be continued.) )
