There are many scholars and scholars who have strong opinions on Cheng Chubi, who is responsible for the appearance of the Cheng family, but there are naturally many people who highly praise the couplet encouraging students to learn.
For example, people like Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, or Ma Zhou, Cen Wenwen and others.
They all feel that this kind of couplet to encourage students really explains the fundamentals of understanding and understanding of reading among literati all over the world.
In addition to the couplet to encourage students, there is also the first couplet that Cheng Chubi, as the president of Cheng University, used to provoke many students of Taixue and Kong Rangli.
It also made countless literati in the Tang Dynasty rack their brains, and they all wanted to test their IQ to see if they could surpass the students of Taixue and Kong Rangli.
It is a pity that whether it is Changsun Wuji, who claims to be His Majesty's first adviser, or people like Yu Shinan, Chu Suiliang, Xiao Deyan, and Jiang Yaqing who are famous in the world for their talents.
They are all secretly racking their brains to decipher this first couplet.
So much so that during the three days of court meetings, Li Shimin saw that all the civil servants looked listless.
It's like eggplants struck by frost, poultry infected by plague, and even those censors who usually like to fight the most.
They were all too busy contemplating that they had forgotten to deliberately confront those important ministers or the emperor in the court in order to gain favor and invite him to his name.
"...many officials in Menxia Province, what they have been discussing the most in the past two days is not official affairs, but Cheng Sanlang's couplet to encourage students and the first couplet."
Listening to Xiu Yi's report in front of him, Li Shimin shook his head in confusion and waved his hand to signal Xiu Yi to leave.
Then he turned his head and said to Queen Changsun who was sitting next to her.
"My husband originally thought that there might be some trouble in the court that would lead to a court meeting.
The atmosphere seems so weird, I didn’t expect that the roots are actually here. Alas..."
After sighing, Li Shimin rubbed his temples tiredly. Seeing this scene, Empress Changsun bit her red lips with a strange expression.
"Husband, you still have the energy to pay attention to your ministers. You yourself are not much better. I am afraid that your husband also stayed up late yesterday, right?"
"Ah ha... No, no, I've already fallen asleep at night because of my wife." Li Shimin laughed awkwardly.
I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when I saw the piece of tribute paper filled with words that my wife picked up from the desk with a half-smile.
"Actually, I've been trying a lot these past two days, but unfortunately, I really can't come up with a suitable second line."
"It doesn't matter. In two days, there will be a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. When the time comes, let that boy Cheng Sanlang solve the mystery on the spot."
After hearing her husband's words, Empress Changsun's expression turned strange.
"If that kid can come up with a suitable second line, wouldn't he let Lao Cheng's family shine again?"
Hearing this, Li Shimin grinned for a while. "It doesn't matter, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet is all about making the ministers happy."
"Hmm... If Cheng Yaojin's family is not happy, I'm afraid someone will be unhappy again... I'm really looking forward to it."
Looking at this husband who was looking forward to his misfortune, Empress Changsun shook her head helplessly, what else could she say?
Naturally, I can only leave it up to my husband to make trouble. Anyway, during the last year of the New Year, the group of civil servants really stole the show at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.
This group of military generals were very dissatisfied. This time, there should be another good show to watch.

Although the Taixue students have spent the past three days working on this first couplet, which has caused the hairlines of many couplet masters to move back quickly, they still cannot come up with a suitable second couplet.
In particular, the Taixue student surnamed Deng, who was known as the Invincible League, fell unconscious on the morning of the third day after staying up for two whole nights and was rushed to the hospital.
Of course, there are also rumors that this student Deng was worried that as the time limit was getting closer and closer, he could not decide whether his name should be written backwards in three days.
Therefore, I was too worried and could only think of this way to escape being urged and forced by my classmates.
No matter what, the challenge of Mr. Cheng, the president of the Cheng University of the Tang Dynasty, was watched by both the government and the public in Chang'an for three days, but in the end they could not see the result.
And a group of students from Taixue were despised and ridiculed by students from other colleges in the Imperial College. Although they were extremely angry, they had no choice but to do anything.
Student Deng grumbled and let several Taixue classmates send him out of Taixue, watching him leave in a hurry in a carriage.
These Taixue students all looked sad. The most famous Bailian Bubai in the Taixue was about to become mentally ill.
What should we do now? Could it be that the five hundred Taixue students can only be slapped in the face by those vulgar warriors from the old Cheng family?
Just as they were sighing and feeling depressed, they suddenly heard laughter coming from not far away.
Several young students in Confucian robes swayed and walked over with arrogance.
"Yo yo yo, why are some of the students from Taixue looking so mournful? Could it be that they have encountered some difficulty?"
"Yes, yes, we are all fellow students of the Imperial Academy. If you have any difficulties, you can ask me for help from the Imperial Academy..."
"That's right, that's right. Although we don't have as many Guozi scholars as your Taixue students, the talents in Guozi studies are much better than those of Taixue..."
"What do you mean, special girl?" As soon as they heard the other party reveal their identity, the students of the Imperial Academy were instantly unhappy.
"Why, you can't even fight against a vulgar martial artist, so why do you still want to compete with us, the Imperial Academy?"
"Haha... At any rate, we Taixue students still dare to fight with the old Cheng family. Look at how depressed each and every one of you Guozixue students is.
He hangs around Goulan Pavilion all day long, has no intention of making progress, has been struggling with literature for the last year, and is still under our Imperial College. How can he have the nerve to ridicule us?"
"That's because we, the Imperial Academy, don't bother to compete with warriors, but you, the Imperial Academy, are too low-level and insist on competing with those vulgar people. Who is to blame?"
"It's just that three days are about to pass, and I don't know if you Taixue students will have the nerve to go out tomorrow, hahaha...ah!"
"A scholar can be killed but not humiliated. Beat him!"
"Dear classmates, some Guozi scholars dare to block the door and mock me, Taixue. If we can't show our prowess, wouldn't we be inferior to ordinary people?"
"Damn it, I can't stand up to the couplets of vulgar warriors, that's all. Those bastards from the Imperial Academy want to sit on our Imperial Academy's head and shit on them, and beat them!"
Soon, more than a dozen students from the Imperial Academy came out to join the battle group. At this time, there were students from the Imperial Academy who were drinking and eating meat nearby.
Seeing their classmates being besieged by Taixue students, they all rolled up their clothes and sleeves and called on their friends to help them, making sure to let Taixue know.
Although the number of Guozi scholars is small, they are talented people with both civil and military skills and courage. They are all people who can defeat four hands with two fists.
