53. Chapter Fifty-Three
"Miss Bai is the most talented woman in the Qinling Mountains. Why don't you ask Miss Bai to come up with a question?" the emperor said with great interest.
"Okay, since there are so many people here today, the daughter of the people will write the first half of a poem with the theme of all things, and also invite all the elder brothers and princesses to take over the second half of the poem." Bai Susu smiled and said: "The white colt passes by the flowing water, and the birds come out to welcome the spring. Sprouts.”
The emperor listened and nodded. At this time, the boss suddenly stood up and said: "Miss Bai's first sentence is good. My second half is: thousands of purples and reds meet green leaves, and the end of the world is so close and there are thousands of territories."
"Well, good" the emperor nodded and said, Wanjiangtu just flattered the emperor.
At this time, several elder brothers came forward to read poems, and the fifth elder brother looked at me and seemed to want to come forward. You must know that if a person suddenly changes a lot, it is very easy to attract other people's attention. He was brutally murdered.
Naturally, I don’t have the answer for Fifth Brother. Besides, I’m just a ‘high-achieving student’ who can only plagiarize some works of historical masters. How could I do this pair of poems?
The group of people below were very happy about it. The emperor's smile was always on his face, perhaps because he saw the hope of future generations of the Tang Dynasty.
The queens and ladies around the emperor were not idle either, whispering to each other and seeming to be exchanging answers.
The poem duel finally passed, and then the ministers came up with sentences, and the princes and princesses answered the second half of the sentence. These sentences were all from the Four Books and Five Classics. I suddenly beat a drum in my heart. I didn’t know what I was going to say to the fifth prince. The compiled quick learning materials are not useful.
The ministers took turns to ask questions, and I found that many of them were drawn by me, which made me feel relieved. Among them, I glanced at the beautiful Seventh Princess, and saw her eating the melon at the side without any hesitation. Guo, occasionally whispering to the maid next to him, it seems that this is not a poetry study meeting, but a performance.
Looking at the rewards in front of all the elder brothers, the fifth elder brother already has two. The most are on the table of the eldest brother and the second elder, while the others are one or two here and there. From this point of view, the fifth elder brother’s achievements Not bad anymore.
After passing this level, it was finally much smoother. The fifth elder brother's interest also improved a lot.
"Okay, after all, the things in these Four Books and Five Classics are dead. The key lies in application. I am very satisfied with today's poetry study meeting. I can watch my sons and daughters grow up day by day, and I am very happy. The future of the Tang Dynasty It belongs to you, and you bear a responsibility, so everyone must study hard." The emperor said with impassioned words.
"Recently, there have been frequent barbarian invasions in the north of the Tang Dynasty. I have sent General Zhenqian with 30,000 troops to fight. However, a few days ago, spies came to report that the barbarians are tall and mighty by nature and have excellent equestrian skills. Our generals have penetrated deeply. The grassland is not adapted to the climate, water and soil. Now it is being defeated by the barbarians. Before the earthquake, the general had already placed a stronghold on the edge of Inner Mongolia, but he did not dare to send troops rashly. Do you have any good ideas?" The emperor still asked. This is what happened to the barbarians in the north.
Seeing that the fifth brother was about to jump out again, I quickly stopped him and gave him a wink. Fortunately, he was also a smart person. When he saw my wink, he understood immediately and sat down obediently.
