Taiji Palace, morning court.
Today, Li Er was in a good mood, especially with a smirk on his face.
Usually, this group of civil and military officials would give him a lot of good looks, but now, all of them had withered away.
Furthermore, it was the eunuch they looked down on the most who had slapped him in the face.
This feeling was simply too good!
"Dear ministers, do you still have any opinions about Lin Xuan?”
Then, he suppressed the smile in his heart and asked the civil and military officials below.
There was silence.
Everyone lowered their heads, their faces were very ugly, alternating between red and white.
Especially those literary masters, they were even more ashamed. This was because they had fought for the original work that Lin Xuan had written yesterday.
Even if he could get a corner, he would treat it as a treasure and keep it with him even when he slept.
"Wei Zheng, what about you?"
Seeing that this group of people did not speak, Li Er was even more delighted. Then, he looked at Wei Zheng below and said,
F * ck, this iron-headed Wei Zheng actually dared to scold me for being a fatuous ruler for Lin Xuan in the past. Now, I want to see what advice you can give?
"I have nothing to say."
At this moment, Wei Zheng's expression was also ugly, and his heart felt as if he had eaten sh * t. After all, who would have thought that Lin Xuan could actually compose such a poem?
Yesterday, a group of literary masters had completely abandoned their upbringing and dignity and fought over that piece of Xuan paper. He still remembered that scene vividly.
This was too f * cking crazy!
All of them regarded Lin Xuan as a god, just short of kneeling and licking his boots.
What else could he say?
"This is a lesson for you.”
"You know what it means to not judge a book by its cover. There are always people beyond the mountain!”
In the end, Li Er couldn't hold it in anymore. He directly roared with laughter and commented.
For a moment, all the officials in the court felt even more ashamed. They had never thought that they would be defeated by a eunuch in the end. It was simply ridiculous.
After the court session.
"Lord Wei, sigh."
When the group of civil officials saw Wei Zheng, they all let out a melancholic sigh.
They had no choice. After all, even if they were in this industry, they had lived their lives in vain.
"Hmph, since ancient times, scholars are useless. They only have some talent.”
"If our Great Tang wants to establish a country through martial arts, generals are the foundation!”
At this moment, a group of generals walked over. They did not approve of Lin Xuan's assessment at all, even if this poem was boasted to be divine.
For a time, it caused a dispute between the civil and martial factions!
This group of civil officials was very dissatisfied with his words. Of course, they were not praising Lin Xuan, but they did not want to see this group of boorish people belittle that song.
This group of generals didn't bother to argue with him.
In short, in their hearts, if they wanted their approval, they had to surpass them in martial arts, such as Cheng Zhijie, Li Jing, and the others.
"That's right. He's just a poor scholar.”
This made Wei Zheng, who was originally suffering, instantly find someone to follow and agree with him.
"We've also asked Lord Li and the others. Although we didn't say anything, we can tell that they disdain Lin Xuan.”
Immediately after, the generals revealed a great secret.
For a moment, this made Wei Zheng feel even more carefree. It seemed that there were still discerning people in the imperial court.
The Great Tang is founded on martial arts. Although His Majesty is open-minded and has allowed civil etiquette to flourish, most people still look down on scholars.
After all, it had been since ancient times that martial arts were valued over literature.
"Hmph, how long can he last?”
"I'm just a little poor. If we really want to make the world prosperous, it still depends on us.”
In the end, Wei Zheng said coldly, thinking that Lin Xuan was just playing tricks. If he really let him lead troops to war and govern the country, it would be useless.
Soon, he would disappear from everyone's sight. Without any real merits, it was only a matter of time before he fell out of favor.
......
Chang 'an City, suburbs.
On this day, Lin Xuan was very excited because Empress Zhangsun had sent a message to let him go on an outing with her.
The Guanyin maidservant was very satisfied with Lin Xuan's performance and gave her a huge light.
After all, the group of civil and military officials were all advising Li Er, saying that she wanted to become the second Zhao Ji, which made her quite angry.
Now, it was great. Those people who had been beaten up by the song had all wilted.
In addition, because of Concubine Yang's matter, she had been very unhappy recently, so she took this opportunity to go out and relax.
"This lowly one greets the Empress."
On the official road, when Lin Xuan saw the carriage arrive, he immediately bowed slightly.
"Come in!"
A moment later, a delicate voice came from the carriage.
For a moment, this made the palace maids, eunuchs, and even the guards at the side reveal strange expressions.
After all, to be able to sit in the same carriage as the Empress, what kind of honor was that?
At the very least, other than His Majesty, even the officials of the Imperial Court of the First Rank did not receive such treatment.
As a eunuch, Lin Xuan could enjoy it.
How could they not be envious and jealous?
