Chapter 336 Poetic Metaphor

Li Tianmin's words made everyone present feel embarrassed.

The atmosphere did not lighten up.

On the contrary, it became a bit more depressing.

Li Tianmin also knew what was going on.

He is the emperor of Tang Dynasty.

He is also the master of Chang'an.

If he wanted to know what happened in Chang'an City, nothing could be hidden from Li Tianmin.

Therefore, Li Tianmin knew everything about what happened in Zuixiang Tower.

Originally, Li Tianmin didn't want to get involved in this matter.

After all, this is only a matter for two junior members of the royal family, Li Yuanxiu and Li Changgong.

But unexpectedly, things developed beyond Li Tianmin's expectations.

And it seems to be a growing trend.

Li Tianmin planned to use this banquet to resolve the matter.

In Li Tianmin's view, Li Changgong was just a junior who didn't know how to be generous.

For his father's sake, he didn't want to embarrass him.

Li Tianmin looked left and right, seeing the dull atmosphere, he couldn't help but look at Ye Qingyun.

"Master, how about you ask the Master to compose a poem on such a festive occasion?"

When everyone heard this, they immediately joined in with him.

"Yes, the Imperial Master is very talented. Please ask the Imperial Master to compose a poem for this banquet."

"We all want to listen to the master's masterpieces."

"Please ask the Imperial Master to open our eyes to others."

...

Ye Qingyun could also see that Li Tianmin wanted to lighten the atmosphere at the banquet.

And it seems that he hopes to show his superiority and open up a wide range of things.

But this time, Ye Qingyun did not intend to let the matter be revealed just like that.

Because Ye Qingyun is leaving Chang'an.

Before leaving, Ye Qingyun planned to do more things for Li Yuanxiu.

Lest Li Yuanxiu encounter some unsolvable troubles after he leaves.

Of course, Li Yuanxiu still has the support of his father, Li Tianmin.

But sometimes Li Tianmin can't help himself.

But Ye Qingyun was different.

He has no scruples.

He can say and do things that others cannot say or do.

so.

Ye Qingyun will punish Prince Jingnan and his son severely this time.

This will prevent the father and son from causing trouble for Li Yuanxiu in the future.

Ye Qingyun immediately stood up and hugged everyone.

"Since you are so flattering, I will show my shame."

Everyone looked expectant.

After all, the poems written by Ye Qingyun are even inferior to those of poet saint Du Wei.

It is a rare opportunity to be lucky enough to see Ye Qingyun writing poetry.

Ye Qingyun calmed down and glanced at Li Changgong intentionally or unintentionally.

Li Changgong had a cold expression and sat there without any reaction, like a poisonous snake that chooses people to eat.

Always be ready to take a bite from the swooping shadow.

"Since today is the Flower Festival, I will use flowers as the theme."

Ye Qingyun smiled confidently.

"Wait until autumn comes in September."

"After I bloom, hundreds of flowers will kill you."

"The incense array reaches the sky and penetrates Chang'an."

"The whole city is covered with golden armor!"

As soon as this poem came out, the entire banquet fell silent.

All that was left was the stunned expressions of everyone.

And Li Changgong's horrified gaze.

After Ye Qingyun finished reading this poem, he looked at everyone again.

"What do you think of my poem?"

No one dared to answer.

Because the meaning contained in this poem is simply obvious.

This is not poetry, this is metaphor.

It happens to be early autumn now, when the flowers are at their most colorful and about to wither.

But in early autumn, only one kind of flower can dominate.

That is chrysanthemum.

In the Tang Dynasty, chrysanthemums only grew more luxuriantly in the south.

In the land of Chang'an, chrysanthemums are quite rare, and they are considered a relatively rare flower species.

But every word of Ye Qingyun's poems is metaphorical.

Chrysanthemums are in the south, but the fragrance of chrysanthemums spreads throughout Chang'an.

They even have to wear golden armor all over the city!

What does it mean?

Doesn't this mean that King Jingnan in the south wants to lead troops to capture Chang'an and make Chang'an his King Jingnan's territory?

Ye Qingyun wrote such a poem at this time, which was almost obviously telling Li Tianmin and everyone else to beware of King Jingnan coming from the south.

Li Tianmin's face became a little gloomy.

His eyes fell directly on Li Changgong.

"Chang Gong."

Li Changgong quickly stood up.

"His Majesty!"

"What do you think of Guoshi's poem?"

Li Tianmin asked calmly.

Li Changgong's expression changed drastically.

"this......"

"Huh? Don't you think this poem by the Imperial Master is bad?"

Li Changgong almost cried.

What should I say?

He had no choice but to kneel on the ground with a thud.

"Your Majesty, forgive me!"

Li Tianmin was finally about to have an attack.

"Excuse me? What are you guilty of?"

Li Changgong kowtowed his head to the ground.

"It is Chang Gong who has no sense of dignity and offended the Crown Prince and the Imperial Preceptor. Your Majesty, please punish me!"

Everyone is looking at Li Changgong.

But no one spoke.

Li Changgong's heart suddenly went cold.

He originally thought that if he confessed his crime at this moment, at least half of the princes and nobles present would speak for him.

But now.

No one is there.

They all looked at Li Changgong with pity and indifference.

It's like looking at a dying person.

Not even much sympathy.

"Li Changgong, do you know who the Imperial Master is?"

Li Tianmin stood up, held his hands behind his back, and walked slowly to Li Changgong.

Li Changgong raised his head in confusion.

"He is the white jade pillar that supports the sky in the Tang Dynasty, and the purple golden beam that supports the sea!"

"He is a hero of the Tang Dynasty who single-handedly conquered the Sirius clan and brought back the remains of the great ancestor!"

"He is an outstanding person who can sit on an equal footing with the Seven Sages of the Tang Dynasty and talk with friends!"

"Even I must be respectful to the Imperial Master. Who do you think you are, Li Changgong?"

Speaking of anger, Li Tianmin couldn't bear it anymore.

He directly raised his foot and kicked Li Changgong twice hard.

Li Changgong was immediately kicked and staggered around.

His face was full of horror.

"You are usually a bit unruly and domineering, that's all."

"But you absolutely shouldn't, you shouldn't be disrespectful to the Imperial Master, and you shouldn't be disrespectful to the Crown Prince!"

Li Tianmin's eyes were extremely cold.

"Now, your father is coming to Chang'an with an army of 300,000 men to seek an explanation for you."

"Haha, it seems that your father really regards Chang'an as his own backyard."

"He comes whenever he wants and brings an army with him."

"What? Are you threatening me?"

Li Changgong was sweating like rain and shivering.

"Don't dare! Wei Chen doesn't dare!"

"You don't dare, but your father dares to do this."

Li Tianmin waved his sleeves heavily.

"Here comes someone."

"exist!"

The four Imperial Guards immediately rushed forward.

"Detain Li Changgong and guard him closely."

"yes!"

The four Imperial Guards immediately picked up Li Changgong.

"Your Majesty! I know my mistake!"

"Your Majesty, please spare me!"

"I really knew my mistake!"

...

pity.

Li Tianmin didn't want to pay attention to Li Changgong at all.

Li Changgong was wailing like this when he was dragged down by the imperial army.

He was immediately put into jail.

Later, Li Tianmin came to Ye Qingyun.

"It made the Imperial Master laugh."

Li Tianmin looked ashamed.

Although Li Changgong was not his biological son, he was still a member of his royal family.

But he was so disrespectful to Ye Qingyun, which made Li Tianmin feel that he had neglected Ye Qingyun.

"This is not your Majesty's process. Your Majesty does not need to apologize."

Ye Qingyun shook his head and said.

Li Tianmin sighed.

"I never expected that Prince Jingnan and his son would be so domineering. It's my fault."

Ye Qingyun took a deep look at Li Tianmin.

"Your Majesty, members of the royal family are important, but to guard the border, you must not always use members of the royal family."

As soon as these words came out, Li Tianmin was startled.

Because since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, important border tasks have always been handled by members of the royal family.

According to the thinking of the emperors of the Tang Dynasty, the Li family conquered the world, and those who guarded the four directions should also be members of the Li family.

Therefore, all important towns in the Tang Dynasty were guarded by members of the royal family.

"If nothing happens in Chang'an, the royal people who guard the various places will naturally be honest."

"If something happens to Chang'an, these royal people at the border will become vicious wolves and rush towards Chang'an desperately!"
