After the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty finished his instructions, he added: "The four poems have been written, and everyone must be aware of the results."
"I declare that the winner of the literary battle is..."
Just when Emperor Zhou was about to declare Ye Qiu's victory, suddenly, a discordant voice sounded.
"Your Majesty, please wait!"
Suddenly, everyone looked at the speaker——
Your Majesty!
The Emperor of Zhou Dynasty was a little displeased and asked in a deep voice: "My lord, why did you stop me from announcing the results?"
Even Wei Wuxin looked confused.
The prince stood up, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I am not trying to stop you from announcing the results, but seeing that Ye Changsheng is a talented poet, I wanted to challenge him on a whim."
Right pair?
Hearing this, Wei Wuxin's eyes lit up.
Yes, why have I forgotten this? Wang Gonggong was the number one scholar back then, and he was invincible in the Wei Dynasty, especially against his opponents.
If Wang Gonggong can suppress Ye Changsheng in terms of couplets, then the result of this literary battle may be better.
Even Qin Jiang and Zhuge Chaoyang had their fighting spirit rekindled in their hearts.
The Emperor of Zhou Dynasty naturally knew what Wang Gonggong was thinking. He frowned slightly and said: "The four poems have been written. As for the couplets, I don't think it is necessary..."
"Your Majesty!" Wei Wuxin stood up and said, "When the Emperor announced the content of the competition, he said that in addition to poetry, the literary competition can also compare things like couplets and paintings."
"This..." Emperor Zhou felt a little annoyed. If he had known it earlier, he would have said that literary struggle was only better than poetry yesterday.
But he is the emperor, and his words are just like water thrown out.
He was mainly worried about Ye Qiu.
After all, couplets are different from poems, which require literary skills, but couplets test not only literary skills, but also quick thinking.
Eunuch Wang then said: "Ye Changsheng is so good at writing poems, and he should also be a master at pairing. Let me compare with him, and it will make everyone happy. Mr. Ye, what do you think?"
The prince looked at Ye Qiu with a smile.
Ye Qiu sat on the chair and said lazily: "Not interested."
"Why, Master Ye is afraid of losing to me?" Eunuch Wang's smile became even wider.
Ye Qiu said: "I'm not afraid of losing."
The prince was puzzled: "Then why don't you compete with me?"
Others also looked at Ye Qiu curiously.
Ye Qiu said: "If you compete with a man, I have no problem. If you compete with a woman, I have no problem with it. But if you compete with someone who is neither a man nor a woman, I feel unlucky."
"You——" Wang Gonggong's face turned livid with anger.
He wanted to say to Ye Qiu, "I am your mother for one day," but he suddenly realized that he didn't seem to have that kind of thing, and if he said it, everyone would just laugh at him.
"Shuzi is rampant!"
The prince snorted angrily, and then said to the Emperor of Zhou: "Your Majesty, Ye Changsheng despises me so much. It is clear that he does not take our great Wei seriously. I must compete with him."
Wei Wuxin shouted: "How dare you look down on the prince, Ye Changsheng, you are really too arrogant."
Ye Qiu said: "He is not a man, why should I think highly of him?"
Hahaha……
All the civil and military officials present laughed.
The Emperor of Zhou also wanted to laugh, but thinking of his identity, he could only hold it back.
Qin Jiang stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Wang Gonggong was the number one scholar in the Wei Dynasty back then, and later he was the chief minister of rituals in the inner court of the Wei Dynasty. Now he is the master of the prince of Wei. It is too much for Ye Changsheng to humiliate him."
"I suggest that Ye Changsheng apologize to the prince."
"I don't need his apology, I want to compete with Ye Changsheng." Wang Gonggong looked at Ye Qiu and snorted coldly: "I think that after writing a few poems, I will be invincible in the world, and I don't take the literati in the world seriously.
, it’s really too arrogant.”
Ye Qiu said slowly: "Old eunuch, you are wrong, I just don't take you seriously."
"You——" Wang Gonggong was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
Zhuge Chaoyang jumped out and said: "Ye Changsheng, others have challenged you, but you dare not challenge them. You are a coward."
Ye Qiu retorted: "Whether I am a coward or not is none of your business, just step aside, little brat."
"Who are you calling a brat?" Zhuge Chaoyang blushed with a fierce look in his eyes.
"I'm talking about you!" Ye Qiu said: "What, you think you are not a brat?"
Zhuge Chaoyang said: "I'm not!"
Ye Qiu smiled and said, "Okay, throw that old eunuch out and prove it to me."
Zhuge Chaoyang glanced at Wang Gonggong. The latter's face was filled with evil spirits and he did not dare to move.
"You don't even dare to touch an old eunuch. What else is he a brat?" Ye Qiu curled his lips.
At this time, Qin He, the general of Daqian Town, stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Ye Changsheng is talented, and Wang Gonggong was the number one scholar in the Wei Dynasty back then. If there is a competition between them, it will definitely be quite exciting. Please allow it.
!”
Qin He glanced at the people around him.
Those people immediately agreed.
"Yes, yes, it will definitely be exciting for the great scholar of the Wei Dynasty to fight against the immortal poet of the world."
"I can't wait."
"Your Majesty, please agree!"
Other people competing for the Prince Consort were all asking the Emperor of Zhou for permission.
Watching the battle is fake, those people just don’t want to see Ye Changsheng become the Prince Consort of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
In fact, many people have this mentality: If I can’t get it, I can’t let you get it either.
To put it bluntly, I just don’t want to see other people’s kindness.
Everyone has two eyes and one mouth, why do you have a better life than me?
We are all about the same age and studying the same major. Why do you do better than me?
Everyone is in the same company, why are you appreciated by your boss?
We all come from poor families, why are you so rich now?
There are quite a few such people in reality.
Just like those people at the scene, they knew they had no chance, but they didn't want Ye Qiu to become Zhou's consort.
If you have to give a reason, it would be why!
"Changsheng, can you do it?"
Suddenly, Ye Qiu's ears heard a message from the Emperor of Zhou: "You have also seen the situation. I am in a bit of trouble."
"That old eunuch is difficult to deal with."
"If you don't want to compete with him, I'll find a reason to fool you."
Ye Qiu looked at the Emperor Zhou who was sitting on the dragon chair, gave him a grateful look, and said through a message: "That old eunuch is so annoying. He jumped out sooner or later. But he jumped out at this time. It's obvious.
I just want to give Wei Wuxin a chance."
"But I'm not afraid of him."
"Thank you, uncle."
After Ye Qiu finished speaking, he looked at the prince and said loudly: "Yes, little Doyle. But if you want to play, I can accompany you."
"Old eunuch, don't say I look down on you, you are no match for me at all."
"However, you are no longer a complete man, and I can't bully you too much."
"Let's do this. Those of you who want to be the Prince Consort of the Great Zhou Dynasty, come together!"
