Chapter 640: Victory in the first battle

East Palace.

Guo Liangdi leaned back on the couch, feeling hotter and hotter, and she shouted, "Go and get me some ice basins." ”

The palace maid standing on the side immediately went to do it.

"Why hasn't Dongmei come back yet?" Guo Liangdi stared at the door irritably.

The second-class palace maid who was massaging Guo Liangdi's legs and feet replied: "Liangdi, don't worry, Sister Dongmei will be back soon." ”

Before the words fell, Dongmei appeared at the door.

"Liangdi......" Dongmei walked quickly to Guo Liangdi's side, leaned over to her ear, and whispered: "Feng Shangshu has exposed Li Yu." ”

Guo Liangdi finally smiled: "Let's go and investigate." ”

"Yes." Dongmei left again.

It didn't take long for Dongmei to come back and report: "Liangdi, Princess Jinyang has admitted it." ”

A quarter of an hour later, Dongmei came back again: "Liangdi, Princess Jinyang and the ministers have quarreled. ”

Two quarters of an hour later, Dongmei's expression was complicated: "Liangdi, the ministers have made a move." ”

......

Tai Chi Temple.

Pei Lin knelt down in front of Li Yuan and solemnly pleaded: "Your Majesty, Princess Jinyang is so arrogant at a young age, she will definitely bring trouble to the royal family in the future."

"Your Majesty has worked too hard to deal with political affairs every day, and today the ministers will teach Princess Jinyang for Your Majesty, so that she can follow the rules and no longer make mistakes.

"I beg your Majesty's permission."

Except for the three Li Jiancheng brothers, all the ministers knelt down and shouted in unison: "I beg Your Majesty's permission." ”

Seeing this scene, the corners of Wang Yu's mouth flashed with sarcasm, these pedantic old men......

Li Yuan glanced at Wang Yu, then looked at Pei Lin again, and said in a light tone: "How do you want to teach Princess Jinyang?" ”

Pei Lin raised his head and said slowly: "Since Princess Jinyang said that there will be no more than ten people in the palace who can beat her, then we will have a competition with her."

"As long as more than ten of us win her, then please Princess Jinyang abide by the palace rules from now on, and no woman disguised as a man is allowed to set foot in the imperial examination and the court."

Wang Yu immediately continued: "Pei Fu means that as long as you win against me no more than ten people, then I will enter the court as an official in the future, and you will have no objections, right?" ”

Pei Lin was stunned, didn't take this bet, and only said: "Whether you can enter the court as an official or not, that is Your Majesty's final say." ”

Wang Yu didn't speak, just looked at Li Yuan.

Li Yuan was silent.

At this time, Li Yuanji shouted: "Father, let them compare, Xiao Yu'er can't win anyway." ”

The most outstanding officials in Datang are here, are you afraid that she will not be a little girl?

Li Jiancheng thought about it for a while, and also said to Li Yuan: "Father, since the ministers want to compare, let them compare." ”

Things have come to this point, and if you don't try it, your father won't be able to deal with Wang Yu.

Hearing Li Jiancheng's words, Feng Deyi glanced up at him, and his heart was full of doubts: What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean?

Li Shimin also stood up: "Father, it is rare for hundreds of officials to work together today, so let's meet their requirements." ”

He wanted to see how talented his daughter was when she was taught by her father.

Li Yuan's gaze swept over the faces of the three sons, and finally fell on Pei Lian: "What do you want to compare?" ”

The ministers looked at Pei Lone, as if they were looking at Pei Lone's horse.

A hint of success flashed in Pei Xiao's eyes, and then he said seriously: "Princess Jinyang prides herself on being smart and full of confidence in herself, so naturally she can compare with anything. ”

He turned his head and looked at Wang Yu with a provocative gaze: "Princess Jinyang, you said yes?" ”

Who's afraid of whom?

"Of course, whatever you want to compare, I will accompany you to the end." Wang Yu raised his chin and spoke in an arrogant tone, showing the arrogant appearance of the princess.

Pei Lin looked at Li Yuan again: "Please Your Majesty's permission." ”

Ministers: "Your Majesty's permission." ”

“...... Permit. ”

Li Yuan immediately ordered someone to prepare.

The ministers took the initiative to give up the open space in the middle.

Wang Yu walked to the middle and looked around at everyone: "Everyone, who will come first?" Please. ”

Pei Lin glanced around and began to take a roll call: "Xiao Shangshu, you are the best at calligraphy, so let's try calligraphy with Princess Jinyang." ”

"Okay." Xiao Yu said yes and walked to the open space in the middle.

The eunuchs in the palace quickly prepared the bookcase and the four treasures of the study.

"Then ask them to transcribe the poem in different fonts." Pei Lin ordered people to stand in front of the two of them with poems.

After Wang Yu and Xiao Yu finished reading the poems, they wrote with a pen.

The two of them wrote decisively, like flowing water, and quickly finished writing one, and then wrote a second one.

"I'm done." Wang Yu put down his pen.

"I'm fine too." Xiao Yu also put down the pen.

After Pei Lin stepped forward to check, he said to Li Yuan: "Both of them used five fonts: seal, li, Kai, grass, and line, as for who wins and who loses, please ask Your Majesty to cut it." ”

Li Yuan waved his hand: "Jinyang is my daughter, some people will say that I am favoritism, I won't look at it, it's up to you to decide." ”

Pei Lin was overjoyed, if it was decided by the courtiers, there were so many of them, and Wang Yu only had one person, as long as they insisted that Wang Yu lost, then Wang Yu would lose.

Other courtiers thought of this.

Everyone was happy, and Li Yuan's voice sounded again: "You Aiqing is the minister I personally appointed, I believe that you will never be the kind of person who talks nonsense with your eyes open and openly favoritism."

"Whoever loses wins, justice is at ease in the hearts of the people."

Hearing this, many people bowed their heads in shame.

Li Shimin took the opportunity to invite Li Jiancheng: "His Royal Highness the Prince, why don't we go and see, whose calligraphy is better?" ”

"Okay." Li Jiancheng readily agreed.

"I'll go too." Li Yuanji followed.

When Li Shimin saw Wang Yu's words, he couldn't take his eyes off it, it was actually ......

After Li Jiancheng finished reading it, he had the result in his heart, turned to Xiao Yu and said, "Xiao Shangshu can come and see Princess Jinyang's words." ”

Then he said to the others, "Come and see also." ”

So the people came up and watched the words of the two.

"It's ...... Wang Xizhi's words? Someone called out.

"I'm not mistaken, this book is exactly the same as the words in the preface of the Lan Ting."

"And this cursive script, it is the true biography of Wang Xianzhi......"

Hearing the discussion of the ministers, Li Yuan put down the teacup and looked at them, only to find that they were talking about Wang Yu's words.

And Xiao Yu put down Wang Yu's regular script and looked at her line script and cursive script.

He looked at it very carefully, and after reading it, he made a gesture at Wang Yu: "Princess Jinyang's words are deep in the true biography of the two kings, and Xiao is willing to bow down." ”

When it came to the competition field, Wang Yu's attitude was still very humble, and she hurriedly returned the salute: "Xiao Shangshu is too humble, you once taught me calligraphy, speaking of which, you are also my teacher."

"Wang can be where he is today, and I also want to thank you for your teaching."

Speaking of this, Wang Yu saluted Li Yuan again: "Of course, I can invite a great Confucian like Xiao Shangshu to teach me calligraphy, thanks to my father, so the person I am most grateful to is still my father." ”

When the words fell, Wang Yu showed a sincere smile.

Li Yuan smiled.

At this time, Li Jiancheng said: "Xiao Shangshu's words are among the best among you, but it is normal for students to surpass teachers, and Xiao Shangshu should not be discouraged." ”

Pei Lin was unwilling and looked at everyone: "Who among you is good at calligraphy, come out and try it with Princess Jinyang." ”

Everyone looked at each other and retreated.

Seeing Princess Jinyang's words with his own eyes, and Xiao Shangshu admits defeat, who would be so boring and make a fool of himself in front of His Majesty?

Seeing this scene, Pei Lin was so angry that Feng Deyi hid himself among the ministers......
