Skepticism was expected.

Yu Ji also knew that he didn't deserve his current status, but he prepared a way to deal with it.

In the midst of the doubts, Yu Ji opened his mouth to explain: "Everyone, it should have been Yu Lao Yu Shinan who came to be the judge today, but Yu Lao has been unwell recently and can't go out, so he will be replaced by my grandson, please forgive me." ”

There was another burst of color below.

If you want to say that it is Yu Shinan's judges, everyone can accept it now.

With Yu Lao's current status, of course, he can keep pace with his current thinking.

If Yu Lao is unwell, it is understandable to have his grandson Yu Ji to replace him.

After all, Yu Ji has already proven his ability, and whether he can be a judge or not depends on his future performance.

"Is Old Yu sick? Why didn't I hear from the palace? The queen was a little puzzled.

It seems that a highly respected minister like Yu Lao, even if he returns to his hometown, he has to report to the palace if he has any physical discomfort.

This is a kind of affection on behalf of the emperor for the old ministers.

Faced with such doubts, Li Xiangnan pretended not to hear, there were some things she knew, but she couldn't say it.

The first contestant took the stage.

is a young man in his early twenties, holding a fan, standing in front of the stage, and without saying a word, he began to chant: "Qi rain flowers are flying, the water shadow is low and the willows are hanging, the rapids are three thousand miles, looking back on a reincarnation." ”

And then......

Then the young man stood on the stage, waiting for the comments of several great Confucians.

Quiescence.

The scene fell silent.

The young man was a little complacent, feeling that his poems had shocked everyone present, and everyone could not speak.

The old man named Qin Xu sighed and waved his hand: "Next." ”

"Next?"

The young man was stunned, what did his heart say?

Why is it that the next one is not a single comment?

"Sir, I don't know what the student did......"

"I don't know who you are, come to heaven and report yourself first, this is the rule, go down."

The poetry conference began.

Everything is fresh as it happens here.

The literati who participated in the competition had never experienced the scene of being watched by thousands of people.

Some of the otherwise good poems will seem out of place in such an environment.

And some poems that were not very good have become flavorful in a different environment.

terminated, because of a poetry conference, everyone saw the unevenness of the world.

Sometimes they are moved, sometimes they laugh, sometimes they are angry, and finally some of the poems will cause the judges to quarrel.

Such a picture is even more ancient, and sometimes it also causes the woman in another small building to giggle.

"Don't really say it, such a conference is interesting, this palace hasn't encountered such an interesting thing for a long time."

Princess Danyang watched it for less than half an hour, and her stomach hurt with laughter.

Sometimes it's because of a particularly bad poem, and sometimes it's because of the blushing faces and thick necks watching the judges fight.

How could those literati show such ugliness on weekdays?

It's a spectacle.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, why do you say that this Bai Song Fei is so strong? Just to sell his house? Isn't there a bit of a fuss? ”

Princess Danyang touched the cement wall, restrained her smile, and thought thoughtfully: "Now that the whole of Chang'an is discussing this matter, do you think this will affect the evidence we collect?" ”

"How?" Hou Junji didn't know much about it.

"Before, those evidences would stir up waves among the people, but now, when those evidence is released, maybe only a small splash is left."

"What does the princess mean is that this Bai Song is for killing two birds with one stone, and he is running to protect himself? Did he already know our plans? ”

"Don't underestimate this little ghost, now behind him is the emperor's brother, even if he is a fool and doesn't know anything, the emperor's brother won't know."

"Should we have acted sooner? I heard that there are several rounds of such a conference, and there will be more and more public opinion in the future, so the evidence we collected will soon be in vain. ”

Princess Danyang frowned: "It's in vain...... It may have been in vain. This matter is mainly hesitant in the palace, and it has dragged on for too long, and those evidences have basically lost their meaning. ”

"There is still a month before the palace test, and we have to watch Bai Song come to the East Palace?"

Princess Danyang smiled: "Let's come when I see Bai Song coming." I want to see what he can do! Isn't this poetry conference very lively? Bengu will let him continue to be lively, and there will be a time when he can't end it. ”

Hou Junji didn't say anything more, pretending not to understand.

He knows the character of this princess, people who don't understand anything are waste, people who guess her mind are threats, standing in the middle and holding the scale, is the attitude he should have.

……

Bai Song originally wanted to accompany Xiang'er at home, but a holy decree suddenly came halfway through, asking Bai Song to go to the palace to see the emperor.

This news made Bai Song feel a little sudden, but the messenger didn't wait for him, and hurriedly followed him to the palace.

I met Li Shimin in the Imperial Garden.

Today's Bai Song has no hostility towards Li Shimin, and respectfully stepped forward and saluted: "Bai Song pays a visit to the emperor." ”

Li Shimin teased the bird under the pavilion, pointed to the stone bench not far away, and asked him to sit down and talk.

Bai Song stepped forward and took a seat, a little panicked.

"Don't be so restrained, I'm not looking for trouble for you today."

"The emperor has something to order."

"How's the palace going?"

"All the best."

"I let you build your own palace, do you have any complaints?"

"How dare you? This is the Emperor's holy grace. ”

Li Shimin glanced back at Bai Song and smiled: "You kid has a lot of rules." By the way, how did your poetry conference go? What's going on today? ”

"This ...... The grass people didn't look at it. ”

"Why don't you look at your own stuff?"

"If you can't get on the stage, you won't go to watch it."

"I have called you today because I have a matter to discuss with you."

"Discuss ......" Li Shimin's words made Bai Song feel a little tricky.

"What do you think about the trade request of the Dongying people?"

"Dongying Trade ......" Bai Song sighed lightly, this problem has long been exposed, and the purpose of Dongying people entering the Tang Dynasty is to trade. But this matter has nothing to do with Bai Song, and why did the emperor come to ask himself? What else do you want to discuss......

"Your Majesty...... How could Bai Song speculate on such a major event? ”

"It's okay, I believe you. Although you don't have an official body, I am not blind in my eyes, and when I see what you have made in Chang'an, if you ask to govern the world, you may not be able to, but if you want to do business, I feel that you have more say than those ministers. Don't be inhibited, just say whatever comes to mind. ”

Since the emperor said so, Bai Song didn't think much about it, and said: "It's okay to trade, but I can't believe the people of Dongying." ”
