Someone Gives You a Pillow When You're Dozing Off
In the main hall, Gu Hao's heart was beating wildly. He let out a sigh to calm himself down.
After pondering for a moment, he slowly said," Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I misunderstood. However, since Your Majesty's goose expedition can be an expedition, then my roast duck can also be a torture or a carriage.”
"A group of wild geese flying south, two groups of prisoners heading north.”
Li Shi Min frowned and thought to himself. His brows relaxed a little. Although it didn't rhyme, it was much better than the 'roast duck' just now.
The civil officials nodded secretly.
Gu Hao saw that Li Shiming's expression was not as angry as before, so he let out a sigh of relief and said,""I can also say,'A group of wild geese flying south, two drops of clear tears waiting for your return;'
Or 'A group of wild geese flying south, the three armies of horses returning north!'”
The hall fell silent when they heard Gu Hao's reply.
Li Shimin pondered for a while and found that Gu Hao's new lines were quite rhythmic, and the meaning was acceptable. He couldn't help but nod.
"This kid is at least a little stronger than those two.”Li Shi Min thought to himself. His eyelids twitched as he recalled what he had just said.
"Hmph, even if he's stronger than those two, I'm afraid he's not the top scholar. I'll try again.”Li Shi Min's face was cold.
"You've matched the pair. You've passed." Li Shimin said lightly," Let's write another poem next.”
The hall was silent. No one reminded Li Shiming that he had promised to marry Princess Chang Le to Gu Hao if he could match the couple.
"Your Majesty, please set a question." Gu Hao said gently. His confidence was increasing bit by bit.
Although he was an engineering student, he had memorized at least 500 ancient poems from elementary school to high school. There would always be one that matched. Even if there was none, it should not be a problem for him to suture it.
Gu Hao thought silently.
"I just gave the thin man a title of 'January,' so you can use 'February' as the title."”
"February?" Gu Hao paused, and the song 'Stopping the car and sitting in love at night in the maple forest' instantly appeared in his mind.
"This subject would like to ask clearly. Does Your Majesty want this subject to recite a poem with 'February' as the theme, or do you want the poem to contain the word 'February' in it?”
Gu Hao looked at Li Shiming with confidence and composure.
Li Shi Min narrowed his eyes.
"This kid looks very confident. Could it be that he has written a poem about February before?”
Li Shi Min was suspicious and thought about what he had said before…
"I want you to include the word 'February' in your poem, but the scene you describe cannot be the scenery of February.”Li Shi Min said.
For the happiness of his family's beauty, in order to be able to get closer to his brother-in-law, he decided to make things difficult for this scholar who he did not know if he was real or not.
Hearing this, all the civil officials glanced at Li Shimin. Only Zhangsun Wuji heaved a sigh of relief and stretched out his right hand from his sleeve.
Gu Hao's expression became extremely strange.
Did someone send him a pillow when he was dozing off?
It was not a scenery of February, but it contained the word 'February'…Wasn't this specially prepared for him?
"In ancient times, Cao Zijian wrote a poem in seven steps. Today, if you can write a poem in fourteen steps, I will recognize you as the top scholar and betroth Princess Changle to you.”Li Shiming looked at Gu Hao and said faintly," If you can't, I'll investigate how you became the first scholar of this dynasty."”
"Why fourteen steps?" Gu Hao smiled faintly and took a step forward.
Everyone looked at Gu Hao's footsteps.
One step, two steps, three steps;
Gu Hao paused, turned around, and walked back…
Four steps, five steps, six steps:
Gu Hao stopped in his tracks and muttered,"
"Far up the cold mountain, the stone path slopes,
There is a family in Baiyunsheng.
Stopping the car, I sit in love with the maple forest at night,
Frost leaves are redder than February flowers."
The entire hall was silent. The generals who did not understand poetry silently sized up the civil officials and found that many of their eyes were shining.
After Li Shi Min heard this poem, he thought about it silently. He first praised it in his heart, but then he couldn't help but frown.
The poem was undoubtedly a masterpiece, and it was in line with his requirements: It was not the scenery of February, but it contained the word 'February!'
Li Shimin should have been happy to hear that such a masterpiece was produced in front of the palace. However, when he recalled what he had said earlier, his face twitched violently.
Through this poem and the couplet from before, it could be seen that this top scholar named Gu Hao was quite talented and not an ignorant person. Li Shimin was quite satisfied with having such a talented and good-looking top scholar.
Naturally, this satisfaction only referred to Gu Hao as the top scholar.
And not the Prince Consort!
"This is indeed a good work, but it shouldn't be made on the spot, right?”Zhangsun Wuji said calmly.
Li Shiming glanced at Zhangsun Wuji and thought for a moment without saying anything.
All the ministers were immediately energized. They knew that Li Shiming and Zhangsun Wuji were interested in marriage.
Gu Hao looked at Zhangsun Wuji and asked hesitantly,""May I know who this lord is?"
"He doesn't know the auxiliary machinery. It seems that the auxiliary machinery isn't behind this cheating.”Li Shi Min thought to himself, secretly relieved.
"Brat, how come you don't even know Uncle Zhangsun?”Cheng Yaojin raised his eyebrows and laughed.
