Time passed in a flash, and the two princes were nine years old, and Wu Fan and the emperor were getting old.

One day, the emperor called Wu Fan to his front and said to Wu Fan: "Prime Minister, which one do you think is more likely to become the prince?" Wu Fan said: "Li Ru has a good memory and can see a thousand lines, never forget, Li Shen is very powerful, he is only nine years old now, and he is the general of the last military camp, His Majesty can let the two of them compete, best-of-three games, and talk in front of everyone." The minister came up with the question. The emperor said very obediently: "Just do what the prime minister says." One day later, in the early court, the emperor said to the ministers, "My sons all have their own abilities, and the ministers will give me an assessment of who is more capable of being the prince." As soon as the Emperor finished speaking, two nine-year-old children walked in.

Seeing the emperor kneeling down and saying, "The son sees his father." The emperor helped the two up, and the emperor said to Wu Fan: "Prime Minister, please ask questions." Wu Fan gestured, only to see two people come up with two books in their hands, Wu Fan took the book and threw the book to the two princes and said: "Which of you can memorize the more knowledge in the book, who will win, and complete the delivery within an hour." Begin. Wu Fan just finished speaking.

Li Ru memorized it, and after Li Shen got the book, he looked left and right, as if it had nothing to do with him.

Time passed minute by minute, Li Ru cherished every minute, every second of time, but Li Shen was passing the time, feeling that every minute and every second was very slow.

When the hour came, Li Ru memorized it word for word from beginning to end, and when Li Shen arrived, Li Shen gave up his right before he could start reciting it.

Wu Fan said: "In the first game, Li Rusheng won. The second competition, the competition began Li Shen took the sword on it, Li Ru didn't know how to compete, so he just picked up the sword and waved and retreated, Li Shen easily dodged Li Ru's Chen random wave, and put the sword on Li Ru's neck, at this time Wu Fan said: "Li Shensheng, the next game you feel like the emperor is the first thing you have to do." Li Ru said: "For the people of the world to save the crowd, open the warehouse and release grain." Li Shen said: "Consolidate the political power and sit firmly in the country." Wu Fan said: "The minister thinks that the concubine should be crowned as the queen and Li Ru as the prince." "The ministers commanded.

At this time, Li Shen just pinched his head, he felt that the throne should be his.

"In ancient times, the most incomprehensible and incomprehensible thing was the human heart, and even eight or nine-year-old children had this kind of thought. ”
