For several days, Lin Dong took Wang Zhaojun to play in Chang'an City.

Wang Zhaojun's beauty has also caused some trouble, but this kind of trouble is not trouble at all for Lin Dong and has not affected the mood of the two of them playing.

Before we knew it, time came to the birthday of the empress.

There are three million residents in Chang'an City. On the day of the Empress's birthday, they are all on the streets, in the attic, looking through the window, looking at the streets of Chang'an City, and watching the open doors in the Daming Palace where peonies bloom. The Empress does not sit in a sedan chair, but rides a famous horse, walks on the streets of Chang'an, enjoying the support of the people in Chang'an City, as dazzling as a tomorrow.

In the restaurant, a white-clothed swordsman held a gourd in his hand. While the people were watching the Empress Wu Zetian outside, the swordsman kept drinking. When he heard the horse's hooves passing by, he curled his lips in slightest.

"Then is Sun Bin, the representative of Jixia Academy. Around Sun Bin is Lian Po, who is also a disciple of Jixia Academy."

Ming Shiyin was knowledgeable and stood on the right side of Lin Dong, introducing the different forces coming to celebrate his birthday.

"Qi State Empress Zhong Wuyan."

Ming Shiyin pointed and said, "Zhong Wuyan is also a disciple of Jixia Academy. She caused trouble when she was in Jixia Academy. The Master always treated her with tolerance. Then he married the King of Qi and gave the land near Jixia Academy to the school. Now he led Qi to fight south and north to fight against the Qin Dynasty."

Lin Dong nodded.

Zhong Wuyan has an ugly face and is very masculine. She looks like a pure man at first glance.

"Mi Yue, Queen Mother Xuan of the Great Qin."

Ming Shiyin pointed to a dignified woman on the other side and said, "Since Yingzheng was in power, Mi Yue has lost control in Qin State, but even so, it is important in the Qin State. Her purpose is not to celebrate her birthday. The Yaotian organization has found out that Mi Yue and Cao Cao have been linked up because of Xu Fu, and they have private letters to communicate with each other, and this time they have other plans."

Lin Dong nodded.

"There are Wu's commander Zhou Yu, and Zhou Yu's wife Xiao Qiao."

Ming Shiyin said: "Zhou Yu is a scheming person, and he treats his wife gently. He only wants to manage the waters. He is one of the rare heroes in the world."

"The one over there is Guan Yu from Shu Kingdom. The child standing beside him is Liu Bei's child Liu Chan. Although Liu Chan is young, his combat power cannot be underestimated by controlling the mechanism created by Zhuge Liang."

"Cao Cao of Wei..."

"The ministers of the empress include Li Jing from the Great Wall of the North, Generals Xue Rengui, Cheng Yaojin, Qin Shubao, and Yuchi Gong. The girl next to the empress is also very capable, and she is called Shangguan Wan'er."

When Lin Dong heard Ming Shiyin introduce Shangguan Wan'er, he looked at this famous and strange woman, with first-class appearance, tall figure and elegant temperament. If the empress is as bright as a sun, Shangguan Wan'er is as bright as a bright moon.

After the empress patrols the city, she rode her horse back to the Daming Palace.

Ministers, generals, and foreign tourists who celebrated their birthdays in Chang'an City all entered the Daming Palace in an orderly manner under the arrangement.

"Let's go, let's join in the fun in the Daming Palace."

Lin Dong led Wang Zhaojun and walked towards the Daming Palace.

Wang Zhaojun is the Queen of Beiyi. If he said he was going to celebrate the birthday of the empress, he would naturally be able to enter the Daming Palace smoothly. As for birthday gifts, Lin Dong’s most lacking is gold, silver and jewelry, especially now, gold, silver and jewelry are just available.

When they arrived outside the Daming Palace, Wang Zhaojun changed into the appearance of [Phoenix Yu Fei]. Lin Dong followed Wang Zhaojun and could also make a slightly gorgeous dress to stand up for Wang Zhaojun. The two of them came outside the Daming Palace and conveyed their words, a little eunuch immediately went inside. Soon Shangguan Wan'er walked from the inner palace. After asking, she took Lin Dong and Wang Zhaojun to the Daming Palace.

"The Empress's birthday is celebrated together."

Shangguan Wan'er walked in front, Lin Dong and Wang Zhaojun followed behind and said, "It's a blessing that you can come from the north. Now the empress holds a banquet in Shanglin Garden, and all nations are there. The two of you came too short, so you may be in the last seat."

"It's okay."

Lin Dong said.

"I wonder if you two can write poems?"

Shangguan Wan'er suddenly asked.

Lin Dong and Wang Zhaojun looked at each other, then smiled and said, "I can't write poetry, but I'm good at reciting poetry."

Shangguan Wan'er looked at Lin Dong and didn't understand his meaning. She didn't know where she felt superior from her poems, which made Lin Dongnuen take it for granted.

"The empress likes poetry. If the two of you don't know poetry, forget it over there. In Shanglin Garden later, don't have conflicts over poetry."

Shangguan Wan'er said softly, then continued walking inside with Lin Dong and Wang Zhaojun.

Shanglin Garden is the empress's garden.

In this garden, osmanthus, plum blossoms, chrysanthemums, lotus, daffodils, crabapple flowers, peonies, peonies... The flowers are not restricted by the season and bloom with all their hearts. Butterflies dance in this Shanglin Garden. The Empress's birthday banquet was set up in the Daming Palace and in the Chang'an City.

The Palace of Daming is a feast for all nations, and outside the Palace of Daming is a feast for the people.

"A hundred flowers bloom, the empress is so capable."

Lin Dong praised as he watched the flowers bloom and butterflies flying.

"There are people in the Daming Palace who specializes in breeding flowers and trees."

Shangguan Wan'er introduced: "The flowers and trees are originally plants and trees, which wither and flourish due to the time of energy. If the time of energy is locked in the flowers, the flowers will naturally not be able to shed all the time. Such tricks are not worth mentioning."

Shangguan Wan'er arranged for Lin Dong and Wang Zhaojun to sit down and then leave.

After Lin Dong sat down, he looked around at the scene. Lin Dong was sitting on the side of the area representatives, and not far away, there were civil and military officials. At this time, what they said was about poetry.

Poetry is Wu Zetian's deliberate illness.

The Tang Dynasty sword immortal Li Bai is famous for his poems, wine and swords. However, after leaving Chang'an and going to the Western Regions, he saw the old land of the Western Regions that was pushed by the empress, and met the ravaged princess of the Western Regions. After talking, the Western Regions princess committed suicide. The sword immortal Li Bai entered Chang'an with a sword and entered the Daming Palace. He confronted the empress that night and finally lost.

Characters like Li Bai were never used by the empress, which was a pity for the empress. Now Li Bai has entered Chang'an City three times to seek justice for the princess of the Western Regions. The empress is even more displeased with Li Bai. Therefore, on the birthday, she asked the ministers to send poems. It is necessary to let the poems be sung throughout the ages and overwhelm Li Bai in order to demonstrate her ability.

Lin Meng listened to the discussion for a while, and the cause and effect were clear.

"Do you want me to read a poem and kill them all in seconds?"

Lin Dong leaned into Wang Zhaojun's ear and said.

"Look at that side."

Wang Zhaojun's eyes signaled, Lin Dong looked over, and there were two men sitting next to Wei Wu and Cao Cao, both dressed in white, elegant and handsome, one was heroic and the other was heroic.

"If I'm not mistaken, these two should be Cao Pi and Cao Zhi. Cao Zhi, who makes seven steps into poetry, is the same as the talent of the world. Cao Zhi, who owns eight dou, has such a brilliant literary talent and blurt out his words. It's better to watch it."

Wang Zhaojun whispered.

Lin Dong looked at Cao Zhi and remembered Cao Zhi in his heart.

Everyone has their own seats, and there are also fruits and wines in Chang'an City on the table in front of you. During their own conversations, the empress came here gracefully.

A young eunuch sang gift list, and local kings and representatives gave gifts, while the empress chose one or two of the treasures of the Tang Dynasty as a return gift.

What Wang Zhaojun gave to the empress was gold, silver and jewelry, while what the empress returned to Wang Zhaojun was cotton, linen and silk that the northern Yi lacked.

When all the gifts and return gifts were in place, in Shanglin Garden, the singers had already played the song and danced. Yang Yuhuan, the famous Yang Yuhuan in Chang'an City, and Gongsun Li were playing the pipa and dancing on it. His appearance was enough to compete with the flowers.

"The clouds think of clothes and flowers think of appearance, and the spring breeze blows through the threshold and the dew is thick."

"If it weren't for the presence of the clan jade mountain, I would have met under the moon on the Yao platform!"

An Lushan walked out among the ministers, recited a poem, and said, "I have looked at this scene and made a poem on the spot to praise my emperor's beauty in the prosperous age!"

An Lushan has a huge body and an ugly face. He looks like a rough man at first glance. He never thought that he could make such beautiful poems with such delicate thoughts.

Yang Yuhuan paused his fingers while fiddling with the pipa, feeling a little inconsistent.

"good!"

When Wu Zetian heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "I didn't expect that you were ugly and meticulous, and could actually make such a poem. I think no one except Li Bai can do it...reward!"

Instruct the left and right to give An Lushan the gold and silver that had been prepared long ago.

An Lushan stood there with a proud face and calmly accepted Wu Zetian's reward, as if this poem was really done by him.

"Depend on!"

Lin Dong looked at An Lushan and saw the words [shameless] on his ugly face.

"His Majesty."

Di Renjie walked up, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Actually, this poem was written by Li Bai. It is not about you, but about Yang Yuhuan who played the pipa there. An Lushan happened to hear it and spent twenty gold to buy this poem..."

Li Yuanfang could hear everything about Chang'an City in his ears. If An Lushan bought poems, he could not hide it from Li Yuanfang, so he could not hide it from Di Renjie. When he heard An Lushan show off like this, Di Renjie naturally could not let the empress be deceived, so he exposes it.

The empress's face was indeed gloomy.

When the hundreds of nations came to celebrate their birthdays, such a fuss appeared, and the empress could not bear the face.

"Put An Lushan down, beat him up until noon tomorrow before taking any measures."

The empress immediately ordered the guards to push An Lushan out.

An Lushan is a man with thick skin and flesh. Even if he beats him until noon tomorrow, he will not hurt his life. But such injuries are enough to make him remember for the rest of his life.

An Lushan looked at Di Renjie hatefully, and was taken away by the guards all the way. Without a word of refutation, there was a sound of beating a board outside.

"The Empress."

Seeing An Lushan being dragged out, Cao Cao walked up to him and said, "If the Empress likes poetry, why not ask my son to chant a few poems for the Empress to celebrate the Holy Birthday?"

"oh?"

Wu Zetian looked at Cao Cao and asked, "The son of King Wu is good at chanting poems and writing counterfeits?"

"My child, I have a poem in seven steps."

Cao Cao asked Cao Zhi to walk out and said to the empress: "If the empress doesn't believe it, we can bet that if my son recites a poem in seven steps, the empress will drink a drink. If my son has not made a poem in seven steps, then I will punish him with a pot of wine, what about?"

Wu Zetian stood up and looked at Cao Cao and Cao Zhi up and down. He simply held the wine pot in one hand and the wine glass in the other, and said, "It's so great. I hope that Meng De's son can let me drink a wine pot!"

"My son writes poetry, Your Majesty wants to drink more than a pot!"
