Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Fourth brother?" Li Min hurriedly stood up and saluted. The fat man headed by him was Li Tai, the king of Yue, whose nickname was Qingque. He was the second son of Empress Changsun. Li Tai was talented and intelligent. Li Shimin loved him so much that even Li Shimin loved him.  The third brother Li Ke, who was stunned, was not as good as him and was the biggest threat to Li Chengqian's position as crown prince.

    "Join His Royal Highness the King of Yue!" Everyone sitting there quickly stood up and saluted. They could fight with Li Min, the king of Liang, but they did not dare to lose etiquette to Li Taishi, who was the direct descendant.

    "Hahaha~, I guessed outside the door that the person playing the piano must be Miss Yun Ni, and it was just as I expected!" Li Tai turned a blind eye to the salutes of Li Min and everyone else, and walked straight to Yun Ni.  He said kindly.

    Li Min's heart burst into anger. History books say that Li Tai was very proud. Except for being very polite to educated people, he was dismissive of others. He even had a bad relationship with the ministers of the DPRK. Unexpectedly, he  Do you also have such a disdainful attitude towards your younger brother?  This made Li Min very angry.  Li Xiaojie and others were also very embarrassed, and the stupid boy Li Yong was even more angry. He wanted to explode several times but endured it.

    "His Royal Highness the King of Yue is so ridiculous. The little girl's piano music can reach the ears of the King of Yue. It is a blessing for the little girl!" Seeing that the person coming was Li Tai, Yun Ni immediately became enthusiastic, smiled and saluted.  Talented people are indeed popular everywhere. When Yun Ni accompanied Li Min just now, she didn't even show a smile.

    "Haha~, Miss Yun Ni is too modest. Who doesn't know that your piano skills are the best in Chang'an, and only His Royal Highness the King of Yue is worthy of appreciating such celestial music!" A guy following Li Tai jumped out and said, not only did he praise Yun  Ni and Li Tai also humiliated Li Min and his gang by the way. The implication was that Li Min and the others were not worthy of listening to Yun Ni play the piano.

    "Who is this bastard?" Li Min suppressed his anger and walked to Li Yong and asked.

    "This guy's name is Chai Lingwu. He is the son of Princess Pingyang, and he is also your brother-in-law. His wife is Princess Baling." Li Yong said through gritted teeth. Compared with the people brought by Li Tai across the way, their status is not that bad.  It¡¯s half past one, so you have to endure whatever they say.  And it's not the first time this has happened. Li Yong and the others are almost used to it.

    "Liu Lang, I'm going to hold a poetry meeting here. You take people to the Dizi Room, and Miss Yunni can stay here!" Li Tai, Chai Lingwu and others complimented each other a few more words, and then turned to Li Min and ordered  He said, speaking in a very strong tone, as if he were speaking to a servant.

    Li Min was even more angry. Although he was a nobody in his previous life, he was not looked down upon so nakedly. Now that he and Li Tai are equally noble princes, he has such an attitude towards him. It is really intolerable!

    "Hahaha~, I've always admired Fourth Brother's talents and talents, but how can such an elegant thing as a poetry meeting be done by these idiots? If you hold a poetry meeting with these people, wouldn't it make people say that Fourth Brother, you are arty?"  Li Min laughed loudly, pointed at the person behind Li Tai and cursed Huai.  As Li Min, if he directly scolded Li Tai, he would be asking for trouble, so he simply attacked the person behind him.

    After Li Yong and others heard Li Min's words, they all looked blank. Even Yun Ni looked shocked. No one expected that Li Min was so bold. As the saying goes, beating a dog depends on the owner. Li Min scolded Li Tai.  The people are just slapping him in the face.

    "Bold Li Min, youyou dare to scold me?" Li Tai never expected that Li Min, whom he had always looked down on, would dare to scold him, and he was so angry that he trembled all over.  The people behind him were all blue with anger, but they did not dare to scold Li Min face to face. After all, Li Min was also a prince, and the only one who could scold him was Li Tai.

    "Eh~? Fourth brother, how dare I scold you? I'm thinking about you. Hanging out with these guys who are gentle on the surface but full of male thieves and female prostitutes really damages the majesty of our royal family!" Li Min said with a look of grievance.  , when talking about male thieves and female prostitutes, he deliberately pointed at Chai Lingwu. It¡¯s okay for Li Tai to look down on him, but who are you to dare to mock this prince?

    Chai Lingwu¡¯s face turned green and white after being scolded by Li Min. He was both Li Min¡¯s cousin and brother-in-law. As the son of Huo Guogong Chai Shao and Princess Pingyang, no one had ever dared to scold him in person since he was a child.  Now being pointed at my nose and insulted by my brother-in-law Li Min is the greatest humiliation I have ever suffered in my life.

    "Shut up, I am surrounded by well-educated and talented bachelors. How can I allow you to slander me wantonly and why don't you get out of here!" Li Tai lost all his grace in Li's stunned manner and pointed at him and yelled.

    "Hahaha~, fourth brother, your eyes are fine, right? If these people can be considered talented, then I can also be called a great scholar in the world." Li Min said with a pretentious smile.

    "It's unbearable! Prince Liang, you're not going too far!" A thick figure jumped out and shouted. Li Min had noticed this person for a long time. This guy was not old, at most fifteen or sixteen years old, but  Grow tall and strong,?He was a head taller than the others there. Although he was wearing a scribe's robe, he had strong muscles and a fierce appearance. He looked like a military general. He stood out very conspicuously.

    "This guy's name is Fang Jun, also known as Yiai, and he is the second son of the prime minister." Li Yong whispered in Li Min's ear. He admired Li Min now and dared to challenge Li Tai face to face. This was still  Did you know Li Min before?

    Damn it!  This guy is the famous cuckold king in history, and he is still a little loli, Gao Yang¡¯s future husband?  Li Min looked at the second house hesitantly, his inner admiration flowing like the water of the Yellow River.  Even though his wife was having an affair with a monk in the house, he could still guard the door with dignity and awe. Such a noble spirit of communist internationalism is rare to see.

    "Since His Highness Prince Liang looks down on us, why don't you compete with us to see who is the real man-stealer and prostitute?" Chai Lingwu also woke up from his shame and anger at this time, and said loudly through gritted teeth.  His opening immediately alerted the people on Li Tai's side, who responded loudly.  Li Min's reputation as a playboy is well known to the world. He has never heard of anyone having any talent. Moreover, he heard that he suffered from apathy some time ago and cannot even recognize the words. How dare such an illiterate person dare to laugh at others?  This is simply unreasonable!

    "Let's compare, aren't you going to hold a poetry meeting? I will compete with you in poetry!" Li Min smiled secretly in his heart, what he was waiting for is your words, aren't you going to hold a poetry meeting?  I have selected a few of the three hundred Tang poems to see which of you has the nerve to compose a poem?

    "Okay, Rokuro, since you want to compete in poetry, I will make it happen for you. You will win two out of three games. If you win, I will leave immediately with my people. And whenever you appear anywhere in the future, I will never talk about poetry.  In the first round, you will ask the question first!" Li Tai also reacted and nodded immediately. He also placed such a heavy bet. In order to show his generosity, he let Li Min ask the question first.

    "Fourth brother is really happy! If I lose, I will never talk about poetry in front of fourth brother in the future." Li Min picked up a glass of wine and said loudly, "Just now, Miss Yunni talked about the song "Plum Soul", so let's use plum as the title.  , I¡¯ll come first!¡±

    After finishing speaking, Li Min drank all the wine in his arms, thought for a while and said: "The plum and snow are fighting for the spring but they are not willing to fall, so the scholar spent money on writing and commenting. The plum is three points whiter than the snow, but the snow loses the fragrance of the plum."

    As soon as Li Min's poem was recited, Li Tai and others all changed their expressions. There are countless poems praising plum blossoms throughout the ages, and there are many famous lines among them. But when they heard "The plum blossoms are three points whiter than the snow, but the snow loses the plum blossoms."  When it comes to the last two sentences of "Duanxiang", almost all the famous sentences have lost their color. This is definitely a quatrain that can be remembered forever!  But what they couldn't figure out was that such a beautiful sentence could be recited by a few people who didn't know a word of it?  God is absolutely crazy.

    Looking at the dumbfounded Li Tai and others, Li Min felt very happy. This poem "Snow Plum" was written by Lu Meipo of the Song Dynasty. This guy is not famous in history. Only two poems about plum blossoms have been handed down. It is because of his  These two poems only left this guy's name in the history books, which shows how highly the world thinks of these two poems.

    "Good! What a poem! What a poem!" Yan Bei tasted it for a long time before shouting loudly. He looked at Li Min with fanatical eyes. He had known Li Min for such a long time, but he didn't even know about Li Min.  The poem is so amazing.  After Yan Bei's call, Li Yong and others also woke up and cheered loudly. Their eyes looked at Li Tai and others with a bit of confidence and provocation.

    "Hahaha~, Brother Yan is so polite. Today, Wang Shi is very popular in Japan. I will present another long and short sentence. I hope you will give me some advice!" Hearing the praises from others, Li Min was very proud and couldn't help but say again, with full eyes.  He looked at Li Tai provocatively.

    "Beside the broken bridge outside the post office, I am lonely and without an owner. It is dusk and I am sad alone, and there is more wind and rain. I have no intention of struggling for spring, and I will let everyone be jealous. It is scattered into mud and crushed into dust, but only the fragrance remains the same." A divination poem by Lu You  Chanting out, words have appeared now, but they are called long and short sentences, and not many people are good at it. Li Min's divination operator has only a few words to outline the image of Mei's aloofness and self-admiration, and the last two sentences are even more eternal.  The famous line that circulates is different from the previous one about Xuemei.

    As soon as the fortune teller came out, Yan Bei, Li Yong and others immediately cheered. Looking at Li Tai and others, the literati who were arrogant just now all lowered their heads, and some who did not admit defeat were still frowning and thinking, but what?  I can't find any better poems about plum blossoms than these two.

    "Fourth brother, what do you think of these two poems by my younger brother?" Li Min shook his wine glass and smiled.  You young man, if you dare to compare poems with me, I won¡¯t be able to memorize you!  In his previous life, apart from eating and drinking, Li Min's favorite thing was classical poetry. This was thanks to Li Min's grandfather, who laid a solid foundation for him in classical poetry. This also made Li Min have a different approach to poetry than ordinary people.  favorite.

    Li Tai was also stunned by the words of Li Min's poem. No matter which of these two poems they were, they were both good poems that could be passed down through the ages, but they were written by his brother, who didn't even know the words. It was really  Is it unreasonable?Li Tai couldn't figure it out anyway. He looked at the people around him and found that everyone was like a defeated rooster. They had obviously given up. Even Yun Ni looked at Li Min with something inexplicable in his eyes. Apparently,  Very shocked by Li Min's talent.

    "Haha, Rokuro is so talented. I admit defeat for my brother in this round!" Li Tai is also very generous. If he loses, he loses.  Although Chai Lingwu and others were unwilling to give in, they had no choice. After all, their talents were not as good as others.

    "Yun Ni is short-sighted. I hope His Highness Prince Liang will forgive me!" The most interesting thing is that this Yun Ni, who was very cold towards Li Min just now, now sees Li Min's talent and openly admits his mistake to Li Min and says  He came up and personally poured wine for Li Min to accompany him, which made Li Yong and the others scream strangely, but Li Tai and others were disgraced.

    "Haha, Miss Yunni is serious!" Li Min drank the wine in one gulp. He was a little surprised by the girl's rapid transformation.  The prostitutes of the Tang Dynasty were also very seductive, and one or two good poems could make her bow forward and backward.

    "Brother Wei should come up with the topic for this second game. Today we are all here to have a banquet and have fun, so we will compose a poem on the theme of the banquet. Who comes first?" Li Tai said holding his breath.

    "I'll do it~" A scribe in white stood up and said. Li Tai was very satisfied when he saw this man. His name was Wang Zhou. He came from the Wang family in Taiyuan. His literary talent was outstanding and he was best at composing poetry.

    "Don't you see the water of the Yellow River coming up from the sky, rushing to the sea and never returning. Don't you see the mirror in the high hall has sad white hair, the morning is like blue silk and it turns into snow at dusk" Before Wang Zhou could say anything, Li Min had already begun to recite Li Bai's poem.  "Nearly Drinking" is Li Min's favorite poem in his previous life. The emotion is extremely sad and angry, and the poem is written wildly. The language is extremely bold and calm. It reads with majestic force and grandeur, and gives a hearty pleasure.

    As soon as the two long lines of parallelism before entering the wine came out, Wang Zhou, who was originally very ambitious, immediately retreated in shame. Li Tai and others were also frightened by the momentum of the poem, with shock and disbelief on their faces.

    When Li Min memorized the sentence "Master Cen, Dan Qiusheng, when he is about to drink wine, he will not stop drinking", but Li Min changed it to "Li Jiulin, King of Qinghe, when he is about to drink wine, he will not stop drinking." Li Min refers to  Li Yong, he has the best relationship with him. Of course King Qinghe refers to Li Xiaojie, he is the senior one here.

    Jiang Jinjiu was very wild from the beginning, then turned from wild to angry, and finally turned to wild again, and became more and more crazy.  Li Min's mind had already sunk into the poem, and his posture became more and more indulgent. He even picked up a wine bottle and drank a gulp before continuing to recite.

    The people present were also infected by the wildness in the poem. Their faces were all red with excitement and they couldn't restrain themselves. Even Li Tai couldn't help but beat the time to the rhythm of the poem, squinting his eyes in intoxication.  Yun Ni stared at Li Min with bright eyes. If her attitude toward Li Min just improved just now, now she has turned into admiration.

    When Li Min recited the last line of "My son will be exchanged for fine wine, and I will sell the eternal sorrow with you", the whole room became silent. Everyone was either intoxicated or shocked. It took a long time for anyone to grow up.  Taking a breath, I slowly woke up from the artistic conception in the poem.

    "What a poem! What a line! As soon as this poem came out, there was nothing like it in the world. The sixth brother is really good at writing!" Li Tai said with admiration and some dejection. He has always been conceited about his literary talent, thinking that among all the princes, he is the best in literary talent.  He should be ranked first in the paper, but he did not expect that Li Min, whom he had always looked down upon, could write such a wild and heroic poem, which really made him feel ashamed.  So after saying that, he handed over to Li Min, turned around and left with the others.  Although Chai Lingwu and others were unwilling to accept it, they had to admit Li Min's literary talent and could only leave with Li Tai.

    After Li Tai left, Li Yong and his gang immediately swarmed up and surrounded Li Min. The flattery came in like a tide, and Li Min almost couldn't resist it.  Li Xiaojie and Li Jingheng were particularly excited. The top dandy circles in Chang'an were also divided into gangs. Their group of dandies belonged to the lowest level, while Li Tai and the others were at the top. In the past, when they met people like Li Tai, they only  He was able to give in, but today he used legitimate means to defeat Li Tai and the others. This has to be said to be a victory of great significance.

    After winning such a big victory, Li Xiaojie and Li Jingheng took the lead in drinking, and soon they became drunk and went crazy. The two grown men hugged each other and burst into tears. Li Yong was already lying under the table, and Yan Bei was  Shou Shuan memorized Li Min's poems over and over again.  These people were relatively good at drinking wine, but the remaining scumbags had gotten really angry with the prostitutes who were drinking with them, and some of them had already stripped off their arms, revealing their true colors as wolves.  Yun Ni, a girl, was still pestering Li Min, but the situation at the scene forced her to shy away.
