They ignored the discussions of the people.
After all, Li Ke knew that these commoners still did not know what happened three days ago. They still mistakenly thought that the rumors spread by Li Chengqian were true.
In addition, Li Ke had never been outstanding. He was too low-key, so the people could only use this method to remember Li Ke.
Speaking of Li Chengqian…
Li Ke frowned slightly. He raised his head to look at Crown Prince Li Chengqian, only to discover that Li Chengqian was looking at him coldly!
"A prince is still a prince, and I am the crown prince!”
Li Chengqian's voice transmission sounded in his mind. Li Ke took a look and happened to see a cold smile on Li Chengqian's face. He made a throat-cutting motion with his hand.
Li Ke smiled calmly and transmitted his voice,"How was the Crown Prince's confinement these three days?"!”
Li Chengqian's expression instantly stiffened.
Being beaten up by Li Shiming and being grounded for three days was a great humiliation for Li Chengqian.
And now, Li Ke mentioned this without saying anything. It was simply opening his own scars.
And most importantly, Zhangsun Wuji had been sent to the Supreme Court.
Li Chengqian knew just how important his uncle was to him, but now that Zhangsun Wuji was imprisoned, the match with the Turkic prince today would be completely different.
He, Li Chengqian, had to perform well!
As the Crown Prince of the Great Tang, he, Li Chengqian, had to bring glory to the Great Tang and make his Imperial Father treat him differently!
Otherwise, his position as Crown Prince would be in danger!
"Li Ke, I underestimated you. Let's wait and see.”
Li Chengqian coldly laughed as he sent a mental message. He no longer looked at Li Ke, but at the Turkic prince.
Li Ke shook his head helplessly.
He really wanted to say that even if he, Li Ke, did not compete with Li Chengqian for the Crown Prince position, the one who would become the Emperor in the end would not be Li Chengqian!
Therefore, this was Li Chengqian's own trash, and he could not blame others.
However…
Li Ke's eyes flickered as he leisurely looked at the Turkic prince. If he could defeat these people in this round, he would be able to shine among the princes of the Great Tang!
However, he still didn't know how to compete.
"Quiet…"
On the open-air platform, Li Shimin finished chatting with the Turkic messenger Saituban. Then, Li Shimin said,"The Turkic princes have come from afar, so We have decided that they will decide the rules of today's competition.”
This was strong confidence.
Li Shi Min was one of the strongest experts in this world, so he didn't care about the rules of the competition.
He directly allowed the Turks to decide the rules of the competition.
Li Shiming only wanted to win. He didn't care about anything else, not even if this competition concerned the submission of the Turks.
He was Li Shi Min!
He was the Emperor of the Great Tang!
His princes were also dragons and phoenixes among men, so what was there for him to care about?
Li Ke and the others shouted,"I will listen to your orders."”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The Turkic prince shouted.”
The competition had officially begun!
The Turkic messenger saluted Li Shimin and smiled."There are a total of three rounds in this competition. We have long heard that the Great Tang is a land of etiquette and culture, and that Confucius, Master Mo, and the others are figures that our Khagan respects. In order to express our respect for the Great Tang, our first round will be a competition of poetry!”
Boom!
As soon as he finished speaking.
Everyone on the open-air platform was surprised. The commoners were stunned for a moment before they laughed out loud.
The Turks were courting death by competing in poetry!
"Compete in poetry? How could a bunch of barbarians like them know what poetry was?!”
"Hahahaha, what a joke. Who doesn't know that our Great Tang is the birthplace of poetry when you come to our Great Tang to compete in poetry?”
"The Turks are simply courting death!"
"We don't even need to send out a prince. We can just pull anyone out on the street and win!”
"Whether the Turkic princes can read or not is a problem.”
"Hahahahaha, that makes sense!"
Everyone laughed.
The rules of the Turkic side had truly left the Great Tang dumbfounded. The first round was actually a competition of poems!
This was the strength of the Great Tang.
The Turks didn't have any advantage in this aspect. This was simply a freebie.
The princes of the Great Tang all laughed, as if victory was already in their grasp.
Li Ke frowned. He found that the Turkic princes were too calm, and the Turkic messenger had a faint smile on his face after explaining the rules.
Strange!
It was extremely strange!
The Turks were not stupid enough to give away points, so there was definitely something wrong with this competition!
Li Ke instantly understood a lot, but this did not mean that everyone in the Great Tang thought so. Many princes of the Great Tang could no longer hold back.
"Haha, in that case, let me go first in this round.”
The Thirteenth Prince of the Great Tang walked to the center of the stage, his face brimming with confidence. He raised his head and asked Saitu Banma,""In terms of poetry, what is the theme?”
Saitu Banma was even more confident than him, and he said calmly,""As you wish. There are no restrictions."
"Since that's the case, I'll show you my skills first.”
The Thirteenth Prince smiled as well. After giving his orders, the brush, ink, paper, and desk were all brought up and prepared.
The Thirteenth Prince pondered for a moment before he picked up his brush and wrote his poem.
The fence is sparse, a path is deep,…
The flowers on the trees have not yet become shade…
The child chased after the yellow butterfly…
Flying into the cauliflower, nowhere to be found…
The Thirteenth Prince put down his pen with a victorious smile on his face. However, before he could speak, he heard someone say,""Ordinary poems, without any signs of heaven and earth, are... unqualified for poetry!”# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:121920185:42PM
