Li Ke wrote it four times before he came up with a couplet that he was satisfied with.
Appreciating the exquisite calligraphy that I had rarely written, I looked up and saw the first three words that I had been dissatisfied with before.
Brother Chu Bi had already written them up and handed them to Deng Chengxin for him to put away.
Li Ke really couldn't complain about Brother Chu Bi's bad habit of collecting famous people's paintings and calligraphy.
"I have tried my best on this painting, how should I deal with it, Brother Bi?"
Cheng Chubi looked at the beautiful calligraphy art and raised his thumb towards Li Ke.
"It's as broad as it is broad, but don't be too busy writing. There are still some things that need you to write."
"Could it be that Brother Chubi, you still have some good couplets?"
Cheng Chubi raised his hands and said with a sinister smile on his face.
"Not bad, but, haha... I am the president of Cheng University of the Tang Dynasty.
In order to let the many Chang'an students who think highly of themselves know what it means to have someone outside the world, and there will always be a destiny."
"So, I am going to write a couplet for all the students of Chang'an Imperial College.
If any of them are right, I, Mr. Cheng, will personally donate a thousand dollars and change the name of Datang Cheng University."
"It doesn't matter if they can't answer. They can ask Kong Rangli for help. If Kong Rangli can answer the question, they still win."
Li Ke looked at this brother Chu Bi with a dark look on his face, who was obsessed with confronting the Taixue students, and said weakly.
"Brother Chu Bi, you, what are you trying to do? Didn't we agree on it before?"
Cheng Chubi spread his hands, looking so innocent.
"Yes, look, Mr. Cheng didn't knock on the door to find trouble with the Taixue students and Old Man Kong, right?"
"Then you are so provocative, what is the difference between knocking on the door?"
"Of course there is a difference. At least I didn't slap them personally. I just changed it to a more civilized way, a literary fight."
Li Ke chuckled. "Okay, brother Chu Bi, tell me what your first couplet is. I hope it's difficult enough that even my little brother can't match it."
Cheng Chubi blinked his eyelids and jumped out immediately.
"Yansuo Pochiliu, dear brother, please show me one of them."
Li Ge was afraid of such a short couplet, so he shook his head and babbled while writing.
After all five words were written down, Li Ke's eyes widened horribly, as if they would pop out of their sockets at any time.
Li Ke kept this weird expression until he left the campus of Datang Cheng University.

Seeing Li Ke's mouth half-opened and his eyes a little dazed, Li De, the loyal guard leader, couldn't help but asked in a panic.
"Your Highness, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Li Ke shook his head very slowly, then raised his head and looked at the sky with an expression suspicious of life.
Li De and the other guards looked at each other strangely, and in the end he could only continue to ask.
"We, where are we going now?"
"No, I really can't hold it in any longer. Let's go back to the city." Li Ke finally came to his senses, gritted his teeth, and jumped onto the horse's back.
Hearing the words "can't hold it in", Li De and others couldn't help but have dark expressions on their faces. They raised their heads and glanced at the high-hanging sun.
We're going there in the middle of the day, so the girls probably haven't woken up yet.
Li Zhong, another well-known bodyguard who often accompanied His Highness on illicit occasions, also spoke to persuade him.
"Your Highness...wouldn't it be bad to go to a place like that at this time for most of the day?"
"???" Li Ke's whole body felt bad. Why the hell would I go to a place like that? Am I the kind of person who thinks about all that in broad daylight?
"Stop talking nonsense to me. I want to enter the palace to see my father."
These words made all the guards fall into deep confusion. Your Highness, you couldn't help but go to your biological father instead of your little sister. What kind of magic operation is this?
However, all the guards clearly felt that His Highness's mood was very wrong since he saw Cheng Taichang coming out.
Forget it, I don't dare to ask anyway, just follow His Highness honestly and fulfill my responsibility as a bodyguard.

"Ke'er, why are you here?" Li Shimin asked in a sour tone when he saw Li Ke quickly entering the palace, and moved for a moment to prepare the memorial.
He noticed that his third son seemed to be in a bad mood, his eyes were a little dull, and his expression was very complicated.
Could it be that because he saw that his eldest brother had given birth to a baby, he wanted to marry a wife quickly?
However, his already engaged wife, Yang, is only twelve years old now. If she wants to get married, she will have to wait for another three years.
Just when Li Shimin was thinking wildly, Li Ke bowed respectfully to Li Shimin.
"Father, I just went to the Cheng University outside the city to look for Brother Chubi. I heard from him a pair of extremely rare couplets and the first couplet of the couplet."
"The child really couldn't bear it anymore, so he went to the palace to invite his father to appreciate it."
"Oh?" Li Shimin was a little disapproving and said with a smile.
"It must be a rare and beautiful sentence that can make you come back from outside the city and enter the palace. Can you tell me?"
After Li Ke nodded, he took a deep breath and recited it slowly but without losing strength.
"The sound of wind and rain and the sound of reading can be heard in my ears. I am concerned about family affairs, state affairs, and everything in the world..."
Li Shimin stared at Li Ke blankly, as if he could see Cheng Chubi, that little brat who always seemed to be cunning and cunning in his mind.
At this moment, he stood with his hands behind his back, looking very majestic, and loudly recited this sonorous, powerful, and shocking warning sentence.
After Li Ke finished reciting, he took a deep breath. At this moment, he saw his father Li Shimin's similarly shocked look, and he felt a lot more comfortable.
Li Shimin murmured for a long time, then suddenly pulled aside the memorial on the case table.
Then he picked up the pen in his hand and wrote this couplet on a piece of tribute paper.
"Come here, hang me up!" Li Shimin stood up, looked at this pair of meaningful and resounding couplets, and couldn't help shouting loudly.
Soon, the eunuch picked up the couplet and hung it in the Manna Palace.
Li Shimin just put his hands behind his back, looking at the painting back and forth with his eyes, and couldn't help but shake his head.
"This, this is the magnanimity and spirit that people in the world should have. How could a freak like Cheng Sanlang appear in the old Cheng family? How could he make up such a good couplet... It's simply..."
Li Ke laughed and laughed when he saw his own father also looking envious, jealous and hateful.
"Hai'er thought the same way at the time. It's really hard for me to believe that the old Cheng family has such an all-rounder as Brother Chu Bi..."
