Xiao Rui's heart was in a state of intense activity. Facing Emperor Xia's question, how should he answer?

Naturally, he has excellent couplets, even random quatrains from the ages, there is no way, it is too good, he can't make it, can't he copy it?

In the nine-year compulsory education, the best skill to cultivate is to copy homework. After entering the society, it is discovered that this is a bug-like skill.

Copying the world and copying the world, throughout the past five thousand years, as long as I am not held accountable for infringement, I invented English.

But showing off like this is not too high-profile. The original idea was to get points in a low-key way.

As the saying goes, high profile is dead. I don’t have talent and I always pretend to be talented. Hey, I really regret that I didn’t recite Tang poetry and Song Ci when I was reading novels, otherwise I would be able to despise the whole court of civil and military, and shouted: "Who else?"

While pondering in his heart, Xiao Rui took a sneak peek at Emperor Xia, and saw that Emperor Xia was staring at him. Those eyes revealed scrutiny, condescending as if they could pierce his heart, making Xiao Rui's heart skip a beat, and suddenly thought of Emperor Xia's warning to himself.

I must win!

Because Emperor Xia had already given himself the task! If I can't win in an upright manner, doesn't it mean that there is something wrong with Emperor Xia's vision? Does it mean that your ability is not enough?

Therefore, it is no longer a question of low-key or not, but how to let Emperor Xia know his ability.

Thinking of this, Xiao Rui's thinking changed.

Now that you have decided to join the battle for the crown prince, the war will start from now on. Now is the first battle, why should I keep a low profile?

Pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger is enough for fun on weekdays, but would Emperor Xia like such a character design?

The crown prince, the future prince of the Great Xia, has both civil and military skills, and the one who will bring great power!

Knowing this, Xiao Rui's thoughts changed drastically in an instant, and even his aura suddenly changed.

He cupped his hands in respect to Emperor Xia, laughed and said: "Father, my ministers naturally have their own couplets, even more than one, but in front of Father and other ministers, my sons dare not show off, it seems abrupt. Now father The emperor asked for this, but the son-in-law did not dare to hide it privately and deceive the father, if the couplets made by the son-in-law are not good, please also ask the father and the ministers to be Haihan!"

Emperor Xia narrowed his eyes slightly, because he noticed the change in Xiao Rui's momentum.

If Xiao Rui used to be clever, a little timid, and secretive, now he suddenly became confident and turned towards who I am.

This surprised Emperor Xia, because he knew that this was power, not only momentum, but also power, and even more power!

Originally, he thought that these sons could gradually develop momentum by training and fiddling with him, and according to his vision, the second prince Xiao Yiheng should be the first to develop momentum. Now it seems that even I have lost my sight.

Moreover, not only is it wrong now, but it has always been wrong. This little guy, completely different from the cowardly and introverted one he used to be, actually deceived himself in the dark.

Emperor Xia was not angry, but very relieved, so he asked: "Okay! Then read out your couplets on this golden palace, let Zhen and the whole hall be full of civil and military officials, and see if you can win the first place in the second level of literary talent! "

Xiao Rui clapped his hands in response, then glanced at the officials and several princes, his voice instantly increased by five points, resounding above the golden palace, it was empty and loud, he only heard him say: "Since it is to return the gift to Emperor Zhao, a couplet seems to be my big brother!" Xia Guoli is so poor that he would even be ridiculed by Zhao Huang as a couplet thought up by the whole country. Once it is exposed, wouldn’t it be a joke? So I still have a triplet here, and the previous couplet is made into a quadruple. Give it to Zhao Huang, and see how many he can match up with?"

"My second couplet is: Qinglinkou, blacksmith, making red stove, burning black charcoal, sitting south and north to fight things."

"My third couplet is: Lonely cold window empty widow."

"The fourth couplet is: Yansuo Pond Willow."

After reading, Xiao Rui let out a foul breath.

Tell me, is it easy! These few couplets have been used badly by the traversers, it is not too bad, but there is no way, it will never be separated from the law of true fragrance.

Look at the little expressions of Mandian Wenwu and Xiahuang, savor carefully, ponder carefully, oh my god, it smells so good!

Xiao Rui thought, as long as he travels through different realms, these four couplets will always be necessary for the traveler. So I wish those brothers who have not yet completed the great cause of crossing, study hard and make progress every day!

This is the advice of the predecessors!

This is a reminder from the seniors!

Tang poetry and Song Ci go! Memorize the four great classics!

If you still have time to talk nonsense, don't forget how to purify liquor, how to make soap, and how to refine perfume

Xiao Rui didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, he was afraid that if he had to learn how to make an atomic bomb, it would be too difficult for a group of scumbags.

Xiao Rui reported to Emperor Xia: "Father, how about the three couplets of sons and ministers? I don't know if there are any civil and military ministers in the palace who have come up with the next couplet?"

Emperor Xia thought about it, and couldn't help but praise: "Wonderful, wonderful! The last three couplets are better than the last one, especially the last couplet, the willow on the pond in the smoke lock, the artistic conception and difficulty are rare in the world. I can't think of the next couplet, everyone. Aiqing, how about you? Li Shoufu?"

Li Ming rushed out and said: "Your Majesty, I have no idea, these three couplets are all quatrains!"

Lu Yuanzheng, Minister of the Ministry of Rites and a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, also came out and said: "Your Majesty, the four couplets written by King Xian are first-class quatrains, and I gave it to Emperor Zhao in return. Whether the Great Zhao Kingdom can make a second couplet or not, haha, it will definitely become the laughing stock of the Seven Kingdoms!"

"Second for the minister!" The other three cabinet scholars also agreed.

Emperor Xia smiled and nodded, then looked at the princes and asked, "What about you?"

Xiao Lie was sincerely convinced, and said: "My son is not as good as the seventh brother. The four couplets of the seventh brother are so exquisite that they are made by a very human! It must not be a substitute!"

"My son is also convinced." Xiao Yiheng also responded.

Xiao Ze and Xiao Yan naturally expressed admiration.

As for the four of them, Xiao Jing and Xiao Yuan, with depressed faces, they originally planned to pull Xiao Rui off the horse, but now it was all right, instead they assisted them to take off, even if they flew too high, they had to look up.

Finally, Emperor Xia set the tone and said: "Okay! Li Shoufu, I will give these four couplets as a gift in return to Emperor Zhao. Needless to say, just ask him: Zhao Guo's literary talent is like a brocade, and literati come forth in large numbers. Is there any right?" Those who come out of the second line?"

"Your servant complies with the decree!" Li Mingchong accepted the decree with a big smile, and the whole hall was filled with civil and military laughter. At this moment, they even ignored that the supervisory censor in the palace was still monitoring etiquette.

Emperor Xia said again: "The second round of literary talent is naturally won by King Xian. From this point of view, there is no need for the third round."

All civil and military officials nodded one after another. Who would have thought that such a good opportunity to entertain envoys from the Great Yan Kingdom would fall into the hands of the Seventh Prince. Isn't he the most disliked prince with the lowest connections and ability?

It seems not!

At this moment, everyone should really correct their attitude and take a good look at Xiao Rui.

However, there are always people who have a single-minded objection.

"Father, I feel that martial arts must be compared! Among the envoys of Dayan, there must be people with high martial arts skills. If there is a fight at that time, King Xian's martial arts skills are unfamiliar, wouldn't it be embarrassing for Great Xia!" Xiao Feng was the one who spoke, at this time He looked dissatisfied.

Mandian Wenwu:? ?

Xiao Rui rolled his eyes, what if there was a fight? It's not an enemy negotiation, it's an alliance! It's an alliance! How could it be possible to fight! Even if we fight, I don't know how to bring guards by my side?

I'm a prince, and I'm not a fucking village tyrant grabbing land from the head of the village.

Emperor Xia smiled: "Since King Duan has this request, what's your opinion, King Xian?"

Xiao Rui looked at Xiao Feng, at this moment he glared at him with wide eyes, guessing that as long as he agrees, this shit will start.

I am not stupid!

Xiao Rui immediately made a request to Emperor Xia: "Father, since my son won the victory, I will be in charge of all the activities of the envoy of the Great Yan Kingdom. I'm afraid I don't have enough ability to do it well. Since King Duan is so eager to think that the prince must have martial arts protection during the alliance meeting between the two countries, I begged my father to agree to allow King Duan to be my deputy to assist my son. complete the task.”

When Xiao Feng heard it, he was instantly confused.

Didn't he mean that, I want to fight with you!

Emperor Xia smiled and asked, "Prince Duan, are you willing?"

Just as Xiao Feng wanted to refuse, his not too much wisdom suddenly made him realize that if he refused, he would be slapping himself in the face, and if he messed around like this on this occasion, the end would be...

"My son is willing." Xiao Feng roared in his heart, but he was grateful on the surface.

Emperor Xia praised: "Very good! Prince Duan has a heart."

When Xiao Feng heard that Emperor Xia had scratched the prize, his mood improved instantly. Could this be a blessing in disguise, as a deputy, wouldn't he be able to share the credit? Yo, that's exactly what I think.

Who knows, Xiao Rui continued to answer the conversation, saying: "Father, since you have sent a powerful prince to support your minister, why don't you act as a double, my minister has the courage to ask... King Jin to be my deputy, so that the left and right assistants are complete. , not only allows the three of us to experience together, but also can find someone to discuss with the minister when encountering important matters, and pay more attention to it, what does the emperor think?"

Xiao Rui begged with a smile, this move made Man Dian Wenwu see Xiao Rui's cunning.
