My Sisters Excel in Both Literary and Martial Arts - Chapter 146
[Chapter 146 Candidate]
“Your Majesty.”
At this time, Zhu Tong stood up again, “Yesterday, although I disagree with Taifu Bai’s opinion, I still heard about his analysis of the three princes of Southern Qi and I fully agree with him. !”
“Oh? I heard that the third prince of Southern Qi, Wen Tao, was proficient in military strategy. But I think he was just a general in the Southern Qi Dynasty. If he came to Anguo, he would not be so outstanding! He then nodded to Song Baiyun, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, “Song Aiqing’s son Song Jimao is
known
as the most talented person in Jingzhou. He has been very popular in the city in the past few years. I have also heard his poems, which are really good.” He said that he has been studying hard at home for the past three years, and this year he came back to participate in the Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival. Isn’t it easy to defeat the third prince of Southern Qi?”
After hearing this, Song Baiyun’s face changed with fright, and he stumbled out.
“Your Majesty, you are so flattering! Although Quanzi has some reputation in Jingzhou, he has also been read by the poetry minister of the third prince of Southern Qi. Compared with him, Quanzi has no chance of winning. I hope Your Majesty will think twice!”
In this kind of competition, the loser is a sinner, and the winner is a sinner. Although he was in the limelight, he offended the future emperor of Southern Qi, so it was not worthwhile no matter how he thought about it.
What’s more, the third prince of Southern Qi is not an ordinary person, how can he be so easy to win?
After hearing this, Emperor An’s face darkened.
Song Baiyun rolled his eyes and said, “Your Majesty, I have a candidate who can compete with the third prince of Southern Qi.”
“Who?”
“Zhu Sheren!”
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Zhu Tong.
“Yes, Your Majesty! It is obvious to all that Zhu Sheren is talented in poetry. The reason why Quanzi has been closed for three years is because he lost to Zhu Sheren in the poetry competition! If Zhu Sheren competed with the third prince of Southern Qi, he would have a great chance of winning. Increase!”
Emperor An held his chin thoughtfully, but His Highness was already talking about it. Who doesn’t know that Song Baiyun once proposed marriage to the Zhu family on behalf of his son but was rejected, and he had a grudge in his heart. Unexpectedly, he dug a hole for Zhu Tong at this time, and it depends on whether he can jump or not.
“Thank you, Academician Song, for your love and praise for Xin Ning.”
Zhu Tong glanced at Song Baiyun expressionlessly, and then said to Emperor An: “Your Majesty, although Xin Ning is talented in poetry, he cannot come forward this time. “
An Di didn’t speak, and nodded to indicate for him to continue.
“The announcement that Xin Ning will be the examiner of this poetry competition has been posted for a long time. If it is temporarily canceled because of the confrontation with the third prince of Southern Qi, people will say that we in Yangang Anguo don’t even have a man who can do it, so we can only Wouldn’t it be a joke to send a woman to come forward?”
These words were not gentle, but they hit Song Baiyun hard in the face. His son instantly became a “untouchable” man. It can only be said that Jiang is still old. Damn it, he was no match for Zhu Tong, so he retreated with a blushing face.
At this time, Zhu Xinning also stood up.
“If Your Majesty wants Wei Chen to participate in the Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival, Wei Chen will never dare to say anything!”
Emperor An waved his hand. Zhu Tong had already made his words so clear, how could he ask for trouble?
However, His Highness’s ministers secretly admired the father and daughter of the Zhu family, one advancing and the other retreating, and their perfect coordination.
Just when Emperor An looked disappointed, Zhu Tong said again: “Your Majesty, in fact, even if the third prince of Southern Qi participated in this Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival, I am not optimistic about him!”
Emperor An was delighted, “Oh? You are also optimistic about Song Jimao? “
I haven’t read much of Mr. Song’s poems and don’t understand them well…”
In the blink of an eye, he was stabbed hard again. Song Baiyun felt a tightness in his chest, and his eyes when he looked at Zhu Tong became even more gloomy.
Zhu Tong didn’t care, “The person I’m talking about is Mr. A Kun from Yongzhou!”
“A Kun?”
Emperor An was startled, and immediately thought of who this person was, “But it’s like spring water is as green as the sky.” “That A Kun?”
“Exactly!”
“Isn’t he far away in Yongzhou?”
Emperor An also heard Chun Shui’s poem and was shocked. According to his custom, he should summon A Kun to the palace, but Su Mochen He had not returned from his trip and had no thoughts, so the matter was delayed.
“Back to Your Majesty, he has arrived in Jingzhou, and he composed a song in Wuxian Garden last night. It just so happened that Song Jimao competed with him yesterday and lost.”
Poof!
Another blow, Song Baiyun was lifeless.
“Oh? Really?”
Emperor An became interested, “Which words were written, does Zhu Aiqing know?”
“I heard that last night, Qingqiu, the head of Qingyun Gate, coincided with a visit to Wang Yingqiu, the owner of Wuxianyuan Garden, and he was appointed as the lyricist for the Qingqiu heroine. First, as for the lyrics, let Xin Ning read it!”
Zhu Tongyi gave up this opportunity to his daughter Zhu Xin Ning without hesitation.
Zhu Xinning came out again generously, and said softly:
“Speechless, I went up to the west building alone, the moon was like a hook.
The lonely sycamore tree in the deep courtyard locked in the autumn.
It kept cutting, but it was still messy.
It was the sorrow of separation.
Don’t leave this feeling in my heart.”
No. Before he became an official in the court, Zhu Xinning was particularly fond of writing poems and lyrics. He had seen many poems and written many himself, but he had never liked such a short poem as he does now.
Although I know this was not written for her, when I read it, I had an indescribable feeling of being inside!
“good words!”
Emperor An excitedly stood up from the dragon chair and clapped his hands, “I didn’t expect that the words written by Mr. A Kun are so wonderful, and the words written by a person from the North are so graceful and delicate. I really want to meet him! By the way. “Will he participate in the Mid-Autumn Poetry Competition this time?”
“According to the scholars present yesterday, he said that he would participate in the Mid-Autumn Poetry Competition, but this Mr. Akun is very interesting. If he doesn’t drink strong alcohol, he can’t write a word. Come out, just drink strong wine, and writing lyrics will be like a miracle!”
“Strong wine?”
Emperor An was stunned and said with a smile, “It is indeed interesting.”
Then he said to the ministers: “In this case, what do you have to report? If nothing happens, then retreat!”
He called Sui Shouren over again: “General Sui, please go out and invite Mr. A Kun into the palace. I want to have a good chat with him!”
Everyone could see that since they heard this, Mr. Kun’s words made Emperor An’s expression much more relaxed, and he obviously believed that the third prince of Southern Qi was not A Kun’s opponent.
And no surprise, Master Akun is going to be prosperous!
At this time, Grand Tutor Bai Qingyuan stood up.
“Your Majesty, I think that if other scholars who participated in the poetry meeting knew about this treatment of a commoner, they would think that Your Majesty is unfair! And who can guarantee that this A Kun will definitely win against the third prince of Southern Qi? What if Your Majesty treats him too much? Isn’t it arrogant to laugh at the fact that he is too trustworthy and embarrassed to use him?”
It seems that this Taifu Bai was born to raise eyebrows. As long as Emperor An did something, he could always raise some objections, and because his official position was too high, he was so popular in the court. Civil and military forces can’t do anything to him.
But this does not include protecting the country in victory.
“The surname Bai has not yet competed. How do you know that he can’t win? Besides, you are a civil servant after all, but you can’t even write half of a poem that people can remember. Tell me the truth, are you? Are you jealous?”
“…”
