Chang Le was dumbfounded.
Her breathing quickened.
His entire body was trembling at an extremely fast speed.
His fingers were trembling like a spring that had been pulled back.
"There will be a time when the wind blows and the waves break.”
“···········”
"I've searched for him thousands of times. Suddenly looking back, that person was there, where the lights were waning.”
“···········”
"A bamboo cane and straw sandals are lighter than a horse, who's afraid? A raincoat and a misty rain, let me live my life."
“···········”
Word by word.
Line by line.
Chang Le's eyes were like a hungry ghost who had not eaten for three days. He stared at the words on the book and browsed through them quickly. He was extremely crazy!
This book was very thin, and there were not many words on it.
In total, there were only a dozen songs.
In fact, Li Tai had written all of this down in his spare time.
Originally, Li Tai wanted to write down everything he remembered.
No matter what, he was also a poetry lover in his previous life. However, as he wrote, he didn't want to write anymore.
There was only one word, lazy!
Therefore, this book only had a dozen poems, but…
Just these dozen songs almost made Chang Le lose control.
Terrifying!
It exploded!
It was like a stormy sea.
It was like a meteor falling.
His scalp went numb.
Chang Le finished reading it in one breath.
" Hiss... Hu..."
She closed the book abruptly and finally breathed out.
At this moment, she was already sweating profusely.
Boom! Boom!
Changle sat on the ground absent-mindedly.
She stared blankly at the poetry collection in her hand, as if she was dumbfounded.
Such a good poem, was it written by Green Sparrow?
Any one of these poems could be recorded in history, spread throughout the world, and be remembered for all eternity!
Those scholars dreamed of writing such a poem.
No!
The poems they dreamed of writing were many times inferior to the ones written by Green Sparrow.
Such a poem was something that they could not even dream of, let alone think about.
How could this be!
How could this be!
How could this be!
How did Green Sparrow do it?
Oh my god!
Oh my god!
Chang Le's mind was blank. She couldn't figure out how these things were made.
How could such words be written by a human?
It was too godly!
Too immortal!
Chang Le was shocked beyond words.
She sat on the ground in a daze, staring at the sunlight shining through the gap in the door.
This sunlight was like the King of Wei.
Resplendent!
Brilliant!
Gorgeous!
Colorful!
It illuminated the entire Great Tang!
Chang Le knew very well that once these dozen poems were released, the world would be in chaos, and the literary world would be in chaos.
Those scholars, those self-righteous scholars, who knew how crazy they would be.
Also, the words from yesterday were imprinted in Princess Chang Le's mind even more clearly.
When the wine entered the young master's stomach, 70% of it turned into moonlight, and the remaining 30% turned into the entire Tang Dynasty!
This was what Young Master's butler had said, and Fang Xuanling and the others had objected to it.
But…
Princess Chang Le lowered her head in a daze and looked at the thin book in her arms. Her lips were trembling.
It was true!
The entire Great Tang Empire could be seen with a single word!!!
All the scholars in the world could not hide from her green sparrow!!!
Green Sparrow…
Hiss…
Princess Chang Le could not calm down for a long time. The shock in her heart was like a volcano erupting!
···························
In the Imperial Palace.
Dew Palace.
Li Shi Min was receiving guests.
He was very relaxed now. Although there were quite a few officials participating in the morning court session, those people had not recovered at all. From time to time, moans could be heard in the entire court.
Li Shimin said casually and left.
Looking at these guys, each of them was covering their buttocks, and some of them were even lying on the ground. This was too much for Li Shiming to hold back his laughter.
He had no choice but to retreat.
However, he did not expect a rare guest to come to the palace today.
Kong Yingda!
Hall Master of Hongwen Hall!
The leader of the Tang literary world!
"Kong shi, may I know why you've suddenly come to visit me today?”
"Hehehe…"
"Zhen is truly deeply honored. Come, come, come, sit quickly.”
Li Shimin quickly invited Kong Yingda to sit down.
Even though he was the Emperor, he still had to be polite to Kong Yingda.
Li Shiming couldn't underestimate this big shot, not to mention his status in the hearts of scholars.
Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui, who were discussing with Li Shimin how to deal with the Turkic tribute, also smiled and waited.
Kong Yingda smiled and sat down.
Empress Zhangsun hurriedly brought tea over.
"Your Majesty, this old man has come here because I have a favor to ask of Your Majesty.”
Kong Yingda went straight to the point, not hiding anything.
"Aiya, Kong shi, just say whatever you want.”
"What do you mean by asking or not? If I can do it, I will definitely agree.”
Li Shi Min waved his sleeves and said.
"That's right. If Teacher Kong has anything to say, just say it. The Imperial Court will definitely cooperate fully.”Fang Xuanling agreed.
"Teacher Kong has devoted himself to studying the Sage Book. I wonder what Teacher Kong is talking about? Tell me." Zhangsun Wuji's eyes lit up as he hurriedly said.
"Yes, yes, Mr. Kong, just say it!”Du Ruhui chuckled.
Kong Yingda requested the imperial court?
This matter was really strange. It had to be known that these scholars had been aloof for a long time and rarely had any dealings with the imperial court.
Today, Kong Yingda not only requested, but also came personally.
This matter was not simple.
It was definitely not simple.
" Hehehe…" Kong Yingda laughed."This matter is nothing to His Majesty.”
"However, after thinking about it, I still want Your Majesty to respond.”
"After all, the Imperial Court is the legitimate one."
Kong Yingda said.
" Kong shi, what is it?"
"Just say it."
Empress Zhangsun looked at him and urged.
She thought about it, but she couldn't guess why Kong Yingda was here.
It had been a long time since the Hongwen Hall had come into contact with the Imperial Court.
He remembered that the last time they had a direct conversation was when he established Hongwen Hall.
* Cough cough *
It had been more than ten years.
Li Shiming looked at Kong Yingda curiously.
Kong Yingda smiled." It's like this, Your Majesty. The imperial court is holding a large-scale imperial examination. It can be said to be a feast for the scholars of the world!!!”
"All these years, all the scholars in the world have been hoping that the imperial court would reopen the imperial examinations. They want to show off their skills in the imperial court and leave behind a legend.”
"As you can imagine, next year's spring examinations will be a grand occasion for the Great Tang.”
"Countless scholars are flocking to it.”
"However, Your Majesty, there is still a long way to go before next year's spring examinations.”
"But scholars have been suppressed for too long.”
" All these years, they've only been studying in silence, but their voices have been extremely low.”
"Therefore, I want Your Majesty to hold a poetry meeting in Chang 'an on the 15th of August.”
"Firstly, I can take a look at the current situation of scholars and understand them a little.”
"Secondly, it also gives the scholars a chance to release themselves.”
"Thirdly, let the people of the world understand the wonderful use of reading. Consider it a promotion of reading for the Imperial Court.”
Kong Yingda said slowly.
Li Shi Min took a deep breath and his eyes lit up.
Chang 'an Mid-Autumn Poetry Meet!
Wonderful!
Li Shi Min's mind was racing. He knew that if this poetry contest could be held successfully, it would be a good story.
Moreover, it was after he announced the imperial examination.
The people of the world would definitely participate. At that time, it would not only be a good publicity for himself, but also for the imperial court, the imperial examinations, and reading.
"Teacher Kong really cares about all the scholars in the world. This is a good idea, Your Majesty's idea is good.”Fang Xuanling immediately shouted after Kong Yingda's voice.
"Indeed, indeed. Your Majesty, this poetry meet should be held once, and it should be the kind that requires the Imperial Court to endorse it!!! In this way, it would definitely be able to mobilize the enthusiasm of the scholars in the world.”
"Besides, what Teacher Kong said just now was right. The scholars in the world have been suppressed for too long. They need a platform to release themselves.”
Du Ruhui nodded his head in support.
In fact, during major festivals like the Mid-Autumn Festival and the Double Ninth Festival, the Great Tang couldn't do without poetry gatherings.
However, those poetry gatherings were all privately organized or invited by prestigious elders. There had never been a poetry gathering organized by the imperial court or the emperor.
This year could be said to be the right time, the right place, and the right people.
The locust plague passed safely, the imperial examinations were officially implemented, and books were also smoothly distributed to ordinary people.
There was no doubt that a large-scale poetry meet would be held on the 15th of August. It would definitely make all the scholars in the city boil with excitement.
It also made the people of the world lively.
"That's right, Your Majesty. Teacher Kong's idea is brilliant!”Zhangsun Wuji praised.
They all looked at Li Shiming.
"Hahaha…"
" Good, good, good!!!"
" I didn't even think of this. Kong shi's words have struck a chord in my heart.”
"Poetry Meet! Yes, we'll hold a poetry recital!"
" Kong shi, I'll leave the details of the Poetry Meet to your Hongwen Hall. I'll issue an edict right away.”
"This year, let's have a good gathering of heroes!”
Li Shi Min clapped his hands excitedly, but he couldn't agree to it, so he nodded and shouted.
When Kong Yingda heard this, she stood up from the stool, and the corners of her eyes relaxed.
"Good!"
"There's no time to lose, Your Majesty. I'll go down and prepare first.”
Kong Yingda took her leave.
" Thank you, Kong shi."
Li Shimin sent him off.
Standing at the entrance of the Dew Palace, Li Shi Min looked at Kong Ying Da's back and took a deep breath, his face filled with joy.
"Poetry meet, poetry meet!"
"Good, good, good!"
"This time, zhen wants to see how knowledgeable our scholars are.”
"In the future, our Great Tang will still be counting on these scholars.”
Li Shi Min sighed.
"Your Majesty, the scholars in the world have been suppressed for more than ten years. They must be going crazy.”
"This time, His Majesty has opened an opening. There will definitely be an endless stream of famous poems and good works.”
"Your Majesty has really done a great thing for the people of the world.”
"Presumably, any scholar will join in the fun.”
Fang Xuanling stood by his side and quietly flattered him.
"Yes, I am."
"Your Majesty, the scholars in the world have been suppressed for too long, especially the scholars from the Humble Class.”
"Just wait and see. This time, they must have put in a lot of effort.”
"I just don't know if there's a good piece that can stun the Great Tang!”
Du Ruhui had some expectations.
"There will definitely be."
"There will definitely be."
Zhangsun Wuji said with absolute certainty.
"That's right! There will definitely be."
"Don't underestimate the scholars of the world."
"Hehe…Your Majesty, I wonder if you would like to attend that day?”
Empress Zhangsun asked with a smile.
"I?"
Li Shi Min was eager to try, but he shook his head after thinking for a while.
"Forget it."
"Wherever I am, I will definitely bring invisible pressure to all the scholars.”
"Zhen, it's better not to go."
Li Shi Min felt a bit regretful.
Empress Zhangsun understood. She knew what Li Shimin said made sense."That's true. However, you can set up a herald. The poems at the poetry meet can be circulated to His Majesty at any time.”
"Hehe, Your Majesty, if you don't go, then I'm sorry. I can't accompany you. On that day, I will definitely be there.”
"Take a good look at the elegance of the scholars of the Great Tang!”
Fang Xuanling's face was filled with anticipation.
"That's right, Your Majesty. I can't accompany you that day. I have to go and take a look.”Du Ruhui stroked his beard excitedly and agreed.
"Your Majesty, on that day, let the Empress accompany you. This official cannot accompany you. How can this official be absent from such a grand event? "Hahaha…" Zhangsun Wuji continued.
Li Shi Min looked at the three excited people and snorted. He flung his sleeves and walked into the Dew Palace.
It was a little depressing.
Damn it, he wanted to go to such a grand event too.
However, he was also very clear that his presence was indeed a little inappropriate.
It was best not to show up.
Sigh…
He shook his head and sighed.
Empress Zhangsun smiled and followed.""It's fine, Your Majesty. In any case, these poems will definitely be presented to you.”
"Isn't it beautiful for Your Majesty to admire it quietly?”
Li Shi Min nodded.
However, she was still a little unhappy.
He wanted to go and see the elegant demeanour of the scholars of the Great Tang!
"Aiya!"
"Your Majesty, Old Cheng and the others are here."
Suddenly, Zhangsun Wuji shouted from outside.
"Hmm?"
Li Shi Min was puzzled.
But before he could react, Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Jingde, Li Jing, Wei Zheng, and the others had already arrived in front of the hall.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Everyone shouted in unison.
Li Shi Min looked at them, tilted his head, and asked,""Is there anything you need?"
" Hehehe…" Cheng Yaojin rubbed his hands and giggled.
He couldn't say that he was here for the three jars of wine.
" Your Majesty, Old Cheng was drunk yesterday. He said that he only drank two bowls and became like this. He even said that this wine is the best wine in the world. I don't believe it, hehehe..."
Yuchi Jingde forced a smile and looked at Li Shimin with an embarrassed expression.
Hearing this, Li Shiming knew what they were up to.
They were definitely here for his wine.
It just so happened that he was in a good mood today. He had decided on the poetry meet and should celebrate!
"Good!"
Li Shi Min slammed the table.
"Today, I am also happy."
"Since that's the case, I'll let you people broaden your horizons!”
"Guanyin maid, order the servants to prepare the hotpot.”
Li Shi Min ordered.
Empress Zhangsun nodded with a smile and quickly went to prepare.
Li Shi Min brought them to the pavilion beside the Supreme Liquid Pool.
The weather was just right today.
Although it wasn't as cool as the igloos, it was still more enjoyable to eat hotpot and drink wine here.
Soon, Empress Zhangsun brought a group of palace maids, each carrying a basin of ice, and placed them behind Li Shimin and the others.
The ice cube emitted a cool air that made people feel much more comfortable.
However, Wei Zheng, who was sitting beside Fang Xuanling, had a change in expression.
He was an Imperial Censor, in charge of the Imperial Censorate.
Damn it!
Your Majesty, oh Your Majesty, you're walking right into this old man's muzzle.
Consuming so much ice just for a meal was so extravagant. What a disgrace!
Not to mention, the Great Tang is currently in a troubled period, and the people are not rich. As the Emperor…
Wei Zheng stared at Li Shimin.
His eyes were gloomy.
