Chapter 75: A Word Determines the Country



Upon hearing Princess Li Ge admit defeat, all the ministers of the Gan Kingdom were instantly overjoyed, and the previous solemn atmosphere was swept away.

Everyone's eyes looking at Zhao Hao changed.

Among the ministers present, only a very few knew that Zhao Hao had a talent for poetry.

More people don’t know.

Just now, everyone was shocked by the unique painting skills brought by Zhao Hao.

But at this moment,

Take a closer look at the poem on the painting.

Even more shocking!

This Zhao Hao is so bold.

On such occasions, he not only dared to paint for His Majesty the Emperor.

How dare you write poems for Your Majesty!

The most important thing.

This poem was written...

It’s amazing!

But,

Isn't this guy just an uneducated bastard?

When did you become so awesome?

Not only painting!

I can also write poetry!

And this poem is written,

As high as the sky!

but,

Fortunately, we have this kid. No wonder His Majesty wants to let him participate.

It turns out to be really amazing!

Jiang Wan'er said softly: "In that case, let's continue with the third game."

In the third game, a single word determines the outcome!

The Three Kingdoms sent people to appear.

Each of them wrote a poem.

The best one wins.

This rule was proactively proposed by the country.

Shang Henshui knew what kind of poetic talent Zhao Hao possessed.

So when the rules were being agreed upon, I mentioned it calmly.

When the Wu and Shu kingdoms heard this, they were overjoyed and agreed immediately.

Because the cultural heritage of Wu and Shu was stronger than that of Gan.

The State of Wu also had a great poet!

Isn't this just giving away points?

Shang Henshui pretended to say something wrong and immediately regretted it.

But the people of Wu and Shu did not give him this opportunity.

So, this rule was set.

Before the second game started, the envoys of both countries thought that they would definitely win this literary duel.

Because Gan country lost the game of throwing pots and flying flowers, which had the best chance.

There will be no suspense in the ending.

However, Zhao Hao showed up halfway through and won the second game with a strong momentum.

Not only did he have unparalleled painting skills, he also displayed unparalleled poetic talent.

This brought them back to their senses a little.

Especially Princess Li Ge, her beautiful eyes fell on Zhao Hao.

After looking at Zhao Hao, he looked at the smiling Shang Henshui.

This is a calculation!

Taking a deep breath, she moved closer to the Third Prince and whispered, "It seems that it will be difficult for us to win this literary duel today?"

The third prince frowned immediately.

"What do you mean, Princess?"

"This Zhao Hao may have good painting and poetry skills, but it's impossible for him to write two amazing poems in a row that are known all over the world, right?"

"We may not be without a chance!"

Hearing the other party say this, Princess Li Ge sighed inwardly.

I feel tired.

She took a step forward and bowed to Jiang Wan'er.

"Your Majesty, please grant us the topic for the third literary duel!"

Jiang Wan'er pondered for a moment, then spoke softly.

"I originally wanted to use Jiangshan as the theme, but I felt that this theme was too broad. People in the Three Kingdoms were different, and their understanding of the two words Jiangshan was also different."

"I want to talk about peace again, but suddenly I realize how difficult it is to achieve peace in this world of great strife."

"Finally, I thought, why not use plum blossoms as the theme."

"Including Yue, Wu, Shu, and Da Gan, our four northern countries share a common culture."

"And the plum blossom is the most noble."

“Using plum as the theme is just right!”

"What do you think?"

Princess Li Ge said quickly: "Your Majesty has considered it carefully. Plum blossoms are the most appropriate theme!"

This question is neither difficult nor easy!

Plum blossom poems are a common subject, and almost every scholar has written a poem about it.

But, precisely because I have written about all of them, I want to write something new and I don’t agree with it.

Therefore it is difficult.

At this time, Zhao Hao came out and said, "Now that we have a topic, let's get started. I'll throw out some ideas first."

As he spoke, Zhao Hao came to the desk, spread out a new piece of silk, and started writing without even thinking.

"There are a few plum blossoms in the corner,"

"Ling Han opened it alone."

"I know it's not snow,"

"Because there is a subtle fragrance!"

After finishing one song, he still felt a little unsatisfied, so he wrote another one, "Little Plum Blossoms in the Mountain Garden."

After finishing writing, he put down the pen, grinned, and waved to the two palace maids beside him.

"Show it to the gentlemen present, and let them judge for themselves."

"Oh, and we can't forget the guests from the diplomatic corps!"

After saying that, Zhao Hao walked out from behind the desk and bowed to Jiang Wan'er.

"Your Majesty, my poem is finished!"

At this time, someone had already started to recite softly.

It is Shang Hen Shui.

After reading the two poems, he stood in the middle of the hall and laughed wildly.

“Good poem!”

“Excellent poem!”

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"After today,"

“There will be no more plum poems in the world!”

The ministers of the State of Gan who had seen it nodded excitedly.

Each of them was breathing heavily with great excitement and was no longer able to say anything.

After the ministers of the Gan Kingdom read it, the palace maids took the poems to the diplomatic envoys of the two countries.

After seeing these two poems, the faces of the members of the delegation all became extremely gloomy.

Lost!

No need to write anymore!

I thought I would win the literary duel, but I lost it completely.

The great poet from the State of Wu clenched his fists tightly and his body was shaking slightly.
