Chapter 73 Looking at Today
"Manager Wang!"
After finishing his sentence, Wei Shuyu looked up at Wang De on the high platform.
Wang De was still in shock when he heard this and suddenly snapped to attention.
"oh……"
Wang De was taken aback and hurriedly ran to report to Li Shimin.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." Wang De shouted excitedly.
"Well? Has Wei Shuyu composed a poem?"
Before Li Shimin could speak, Changsun Wuji began to make sarcastic remarks.
They couldn't hear what Wei Shuyu was saying from the stands, but they could clearly see him gesturing wildly and arguing for a long time.
"No...no!" Wang De hurriedly shook his head.
"So he's admitting defeat?" Changsun Wuji's smile deepened.
"No, not exactly." Wang De shook his head again.
"Then what was he babbling on for so long? Was he performing opera?" Changsun Wuji was unhappy.
"Wang De, stop keeping me in suspense and just tell me," Li Shimin urged.
"Your Majesty, Wei Shuyu has composed a poem," Wang De said, trembling. "In my humble opinion, it is... it is still a timeless masterpiece!"
Swish...
All eyes turned to Wang De.
Could Wei Shuyu write timeless lyric poems?
Why don't you say that a tortoise runs faster than a horse?
"Wang De, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want!" Changsun Wuji reprimanded sternly.
Li Shimin frowned.
As his personal attendant, he naturally understood Wang De.
Wang De's talent and learning far surpassed that of most of the court officials.
“Wang De, tell me in detail…” Li Shimin began.
"promise."
Wang De responded, then straightened up, striking a pose that exuded an aura of overwhelming power...
One breath, two breaths, ten breaths passed...
Everyone stood there dumbfounded, waiting!
"Why haven't you read it yet?" Li Shimin glared at him.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. The words are too long. This servant...this servant forgot to begin." Wang De prostrated himself in fear.
"..."
It looked like a flock of crows were flying overhead.
When it comes to guts, Wang De is the one.
Taking advantage of his favor, he even dared to mock the Emperor...
"Then why don't you go and bring Wei Shuyu here!" Li Shimin shouted sternly.
Every single day, everyone manages to provoke me several times.
"promise."
Wang De wiped the sweat from his forehead, hurriedly got up, and went to invite Wei Shuyu.
On the martial arts stage.
"How...how could you possibly use such a word?"
Changsun Chong was terrified.
This poem is simple and easy to understand, yet it is full of heroic spirit, let alone for a scholar like him.
Especially the last few paragraphs, even soldiers with little education could understand some of them.
"Without a certain vision, it's impossible to accomplish this."
Wei Shuyu rarely said anything more.
This is not self-praise, but rather an expression of respect for a great man!
"No, you definitely didn't write these words, you must have copied them!"
Changsun Chong shook his head frantically.
He had already lost the strategy debate; if he lost the poetry debate as well, he would truly lose the literary contest.
At that time, not only will his reputation be ruined, but he won't even be able to marry the princess!
"copy?"
Wei Shuyu sneered: "Could it be that you wrote that poem praising Du Ruhui yourself?"
Changsun Chong's face turned deathly pale.
His lips moved, but he could no longer refute them.
In the duck pen, the kids were also buzzing with discussion...
"Godbase, what does your brother's word mean?"
"The big pot of slurped soup is delicious!"
"What's so good about it?"
"It's perfect in every way!"
"I doubt you understand either."
"What are you saying?"
Choi Shin-ki raised his hand and delivered a series of blows to the head.
"Yiai, tell me..."
"Big brother is right!"
Well, another illiterate person.
Looking at Qin Shandao drinking orange juice...
Qin Shandao blinked.
Forget it, I won't ask anymore, they're a bunch of illiterate people.
At the same time, Wang De ran breathlessly to Wei Shuyu's side.
"Quickly, come with me to see His Majesty."
Without waiting for Wei Shuyu to speak, he grabbed Wei Shuyu's hand and left.
Wei Shuyu shuddered.
He quickly broke free...
Damn it, I was being held by a eunuch, and for some reason, the hairs on my body stood on end.
"Don't misunderstand, Steward Wang. I just felt that I could walk faster."
Uncle Wei quickly quickened his pace and overtook Wang De.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
Upon arriving at the stands, Wei Shuyu bowed.
"Hmm." Li Shimin nodded: "Shuyu, Wang De praised your poem highly, even asserting that it could be included among the poems of all time. Tell me about it..."
All eyes turned to Wei Shuyu.
"Your Majesty, before reciting the words, I would like to confirm once again whether it is true that as long as I win this round, Changsun Chong will not be able to marry the princess," Wei Shuyu said calmly.
Wei Shuyu had not forgotten that Changsun Wuji had targeted him!
Li Shimin was taken aback.
I almost forgot about that...
If Wei Shuzhenyu wins, it seems, maybe, perhaps Chang Le will never be able to get married.
"presumptuous."
Changsun Wuji hurriedly stepped forward and reprimanded, "Do you think you've got this in the bag?"
"What? Are you scared?" Wei Shuyu asked back.
"I'm afraid you'll embarrass yourself when you come out!" Changsun Wuji gritted his teeth.
"Ha ha……"
Wei Shuyu burst into laughter, staring directly at Changsun Wuji: "So you really are afraid!"
"I'm just an eleven-year-old kid, so what if I lose?"
"On the contrary, what will happen to your eldest grandson Chong after he loses to me?"
“Changsun Wuji, don’t say I’m disrespectful to my elders by calling you by your name. You’ve never given me a single meal, nor taught me a single poem or lyric.”
"At most, you've just lived a few years longer than me!"
"And don't say I addressed an official by his first name. Your son and I are now adversaries, and your whole family are now my enemies!"
"I'll just ask you one question: do you accept this bet or not?"
Wow.
Everyone stared wide-eyed.
What is Wei Shuyu trying to do?
Should we go to war with Changsun Wuji?
Wei Zheng raised his eyelids slightly but did not speak.
"You..." Changsun Wuji was speechless.
"How dare you!"
Behind Changsun Wuji, an official stepped forward and shouted sternly, "Wei Shuyu, who gave you the courage to speak to the Duke of Zhao in such a tone?"
"You still dare to shout at His Majesty! Even your father, Wei Zheng, wouldn't dare to do that!"
I dare not?
How dare you rebuke my son?
Wei Zheng opened his droopy eyelids...
Just as he was about to unleash a torrent of abuse, Wei Shuyu didn't give him the chance.
"Who gave me the courage?"
Wei Shuyu spoke in a deep voice, his aura of absolute confidence soaring to the heavens: "Listen carefully..."
"The scenery of the Northland is magnificent, with thousands of miles of ice and snow."
Looking out over the Great Wall, all that remains is a vast expanse of desolation; the Yellow River, both upstream and downstream, has lost its roaring flow.
The mountains dance like silver snakes, and the plains gallop like wax elephants, vying with the heavens for height.
On a sunny day, the red-clad beauties and white-clad figures are exceptionally enchanting.
Such a beautiful land has attracted countless heroes to bow down before it.
Unfortunately, Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of Han were slightly lacking in literary talent; Emperor Taizong of Tang and Emperor Taizu of Song were somewhat inferior in poetic flair.
Genghis Khan, the proud son of heaven, only knew how to bend his bow and shoot eagles.
All have passed away; let us now count the truly remarkable figures…
Bang!
Wei Shuyu suddenly took a step forward and shouted at the official, "Let's see what happens today!"
Wow!
The moment those words were uttered, everyone's bodies trembled!
noun!
It truly is a timeless phrase...
(The original names of Qin Shi Huang, Emperor Wu of Han, Emperor Taizong of Tang, and Emperor Taizu of Song were changed to famous generals such as Huo Qubing, Zhuge Liang, Han Xin, and Jiang Ziya to boost morale, but unfortunately, the review was not approved.
