The Great Ming Palace was one of the two imperial palaces in Chang 'an.
Compared to the Taiji Palace where the Tang emperors lived, this palace where Emperor Li lived was even more magnificent.
The bright moon hung high in the sky, and the Great Ming Palace began to become lively.
Scholars from all over the world came to Chang 'an, and many peerless poetry masters appeared.
The Great Ming Palace was brightly lit. All kinds of scholars and scholars sat down and guarded the main hall in front.
In the main hall were the seats of the Tang Emperor and the few High Dukes.
These few dukes were all scholars, and ordinary people wouldn't be able to sit here.
For example, Cheng Yaojin wanted to sit in the middle shamelessly.
This was because there were great scholars like Wang Tong, Lu Jiuyuan, and Zhou Dunyi, as well as famous poets like Wang Wei and Liu Yong.
Even the current Great Grandmaster of the Buddhist Sect, Hong Ren, and the Great Grandmaster of the Taoist Sect, Yuan Tiangang, had come.
Cheng Yaojin said that he wanted to be tainted with a trace of the literary spirit of the few masters and pass it on to his children and grandchildren.
However, Li Shi Min chased him away.
Li Hao had a few wives who were sitting in the main hall.
Li Qingzhao sat beside Lu Jiuyuan and Zhou Dunyi. She was the successor of the Confucian Sect.
Xie Daoyun sat next to Wang Wei. Her father Xie An and Wang Wei were good friends.
Shi Feixuan sat next to Zen Hongren, while Wan Wan sat next to Liu Yong and Liu Sanbian of the evil cult.?
These two could be considered their elders.
Li Shi Min sat at the head of the table with his sons.
Wu Meiniang also came. Like the three princesses, she followed beside Princess Ping Yang, Li Xiu Ning.
"Everyone is here. Left and right, go and see where Zhou Wang is.”
Li Shi Min glanced around and found that Li Hao was the only one left in the hall.
Not long after, someone came to report.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, Zhou Wang is outside. Let the scholars begin to recite poems.”
"What about himself?"
Li Shi Min was stunned. He was already here, what was he doing outside?
"Zhou Wang is admiring the moon alone. He said that he needs to prepare for it and let everyone start early, otherwise…"
"Otherwise what? Why are you so hesitant?”
Li Shi Min glared at the young eunuch. He was usually a smart person, why did he suddenly act like this?
"Zhou Wang said that if not, everyone would not be able to write poems.”
"What do you mean by that? Didn't you get it?”
"This servant asked, Prince Zhou said, said…"
"Say it all at once, or you'll be punished outside.”
Li Shi Min was furious. What was there to hide?
Was he trying to cover it up in front of the scholars of the world and make them laugh at the Great Tang?
"Zhou Wang said that since there is a bright moon in the sky, how can the stars have light? Let everyone do it first. Otherwise, when he comes, everyone won't be able to do it.”
"What?!"
Everyone inside and outside the hall was shocked.
"What an arrogant tone."
Countless people outside the hall began to mock him.
"Who does he think he is? He treats him like the moon, while the other scholars are like stars.”
"That's right. Three hundred years ago, even Cao Zijian, who was known to be extremely talented, wouldn't dare to say such a thing.”
"When Cao Zijian was still alive, there were still the Seven Sages of Jian 'an and the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest. How could he dare to say that?”
"That's right. Two hundred years ago, Tao Yuanming, the hermit of the Peach Blossom Garden, had never said such words.”
······
All of a sudden, discussions broke out outside the main hall.
The hall fell into a strange silence.
Liu Yong casually sat on his chair. His sitting posture was extremely free and easy, but also extremely inelegant. He was the first to break the silence.
"Is the moon in the sky?"
"Your Majesty, please invite this bright moon in so that we can surround the moon.”
He toyed with the wine glass in his hand and smiled wantonly.
"Brother Liu is right. I once heard Xi Bai say that Zhou Wang disdained my words and felt that it was difficult to enter the hall of elegance. Zhongguang also wanted to see how wonderful Zhou Wang's words were.”
Li Yu lived in the south and was specially brought over by the Flower Sect.
The reputation of the Flower School was being suppressed. As the master of the Flower School Ci, he naturally couldn't sit idly by.
Li Shimin smiled bitterly and looked at the other two poets.
Wang Wei sat cross-legged as if he was meditating. He smiled leisurely and said,"Indeed, we should listen to Zhou Wang's poem first. Mojie is known as the Poet Buddha, so I also want to see the style of the Poet Immortal.”
As for Li He, he nodded casually.""Whatever it is, Li He has no objections.”
The four people present were all peerless masters of poetry.
He said that after he composed the poem, no one else could compose it.
Whether it was the two poets or the two Ci writers, they all sneered at each other.
"Good, go invite Zhou Wang in."
Li Shi Min waved his hand, wanting the eunuch to call Li Hao in.
Suddenly, he said," Forget it, Ankang, you go. Only you can deal with this kid's temper."”
Li Ankang and Li Hao were born in the same year and grew up together. They had never been able to do anything to their niece.
Over the years, Li Shimin had also noticed it, so he asked Li Ankang to call him.
Sure enough, Li Hao came not long after.
He was almost dragged in by Li Ankang.
"Be gentle, be gentle. Don't tear my clothes.”
What could Li Hao do to his niece? He was helpless.
He was originally waiting for this group of people to finish acting tough before he came in to slap them in the face.
Now, he had to rewrite the script and turn it into his own show.
However, it didn't matter. In any case, he was already prepared.
"Royal brother, you're finally here."
Li Shimin looked at him and introduced a few scholars and poetry masters to him.
Li Hao cupped his hands slightly.
"Darkstar Liu Sanbian greets the bright moon in the poem.”
Liu Yong suddenly laughed and teased.
He was born humorous and loved to be amused.
Hearing his words, everyone in the hall burst into laughter.
This kind of laughter was particularly ear-piercing to Li Shimin and the other members of the Li Tang Imperial Clan.
In their eyes, this was a mockery of Li Hao and Li Tang.
"Imperial brother, comparing yourself to the bright moon is indeed a little too much.”
Hearing Li Shiming's words, the scholars nodded.
This Emperor of the Great Tang was indeed a ruler of a golden age, unlike the arrogant Prince of Zhou.
"Yes, it's indeed inappropriate to compare yourself to the bright moon.”
Li Hao also nodded, seemingly thinking that Li Shiming was right.
This, this was admitting defeat?
He had just made a bold statement and had just arrived, and he was already beginning to admit defeat?
Everyone felt that it was boring.
Since he wanted to be independent, then he would be independent to the end.
However, Li Hao's next sentence shocked them.
"Although the moon is bright, it is still competing with the stars in the night sky. In my opinion, I should be the sun in the sky.”
"Since I'm here during the day, why do I need the moon and stars? I'll just leave it to them to fight for it at night.”
