Tang Taizong is my elder brother

Chapter 8

Seeing him groaning for a long time, Chang Sheng knew that he had completely forgotten, so he had to stick out half of his head and reminded in a low voice: "Confucius has 72 sages.".

"Who is behind, come out!" Yang Jian heard the voice and shouted in a low voice.

Seeing that the emperor was angry, Eunuch Zhu knew that he had violated the emperor's taboo, so he hurriedly pulled Changsheng out, and explained: "This child came with the son, and he has been behind the screen."

Among the generals in the audience, Li Yuan suddenly exclaimed: "Longevity?":.

Seeing Li Yuan's voice, Yang Jian immediately asked, "Why does Li Aiqing know this person?"

"Your Majesty, forgive me. This man is the third son of a humble official, called Changsheng." Li Yuan cupped his fists and knelt down to report.

The emperor looked at him, and thought to himself, why do you all bring your children to court, and stroked your beards, "Oh, so he is your Saburo, I heard it, what did you say later?"

Changsheng knelt down and saluted: "Report to the emperor, the son came up with the absolute of the Japanese envoy, "The upper line is the 28 generals of Yuntai, and the lower line is the 72 sages of Confucius. "

Yang Zhao also shouted happily when he heard it: "Yes, yes, yes, I remembered, this is it!"

There was a "wow" and the whole scene became restless.

Hundreds of officials are discussing in a hurry:
"Yuntai vs. Kongmen, 28 vs. 72, the matchup is neat, beautiful, right, beautiful."

"At such a young age, to be able to fight so absolutely, your Highness is extremely talented."

"Let's see what the Japanese dwarf has to say, haha!"

……

The Japanese envoy also had a dejected look on his face. This couple is better than the one that Emperor Shengde thought. If he insisted on denying it, he would be humiliating himself.

Didn't expect it, didn't expect it, all the civil and military officials in the court couldn't figure it out, and it fell into the hands of a little baby?
Yang Guang was also shocked in his heart and couldn't calm down for a long time. Could it be that he really misjudged that his son is Wen Quxing descended to earth, but he has been hiding it all the time?
The emperor didn't rub the sand in his eyes, looked at Yang Zhao, and asked in a low voice: "Tell me honestly, who on earth thought of this couple?".

"Yes..." Yang Zhao looked at his cousin Chang Sheng, saw that he shook his head slightly, and stopped after uttering a word.

But this time, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty saw clearly in his eyes, and immediately asked again, and finally understood the ins and outs of the matter.

……

It turned out that when Chang Sheng heard the question the Japanese used just now, he burst out laughing.

This little Japan is too funny, just relying on this rotten street stuff after a thousand years, I want to test my heavenly kingdom, if I don’t teach you a lesson today, I’m really ashamed to be a descendant of the Yellow Emperor!

Changsheng made up his mind, so he lay next to Yang Zhao's ear and told him the answer. After discussing that if no one could answer, Yang Zhao would go out.

Yang Zhao likes to do this kind of publicity. Seeing that the adults are caught blind, he rushes out regardless of whether he remembers it or not.As a result, I accidentally forgot the words, and the "mastermind behind the scenes" also surfaced.

……

"Boy, the 28 generals of Yuntai and the 72 sages of Confucianism, you really came up with it?" The Japanese envoy asked in disbelief, looking at Changsheng with red eyes.

Changsheng didn't give up when he saw the other party, he stood up and puffed his chest, and said in a childlike voice: "The couplets are just a little trick, and I can answer them from old men in their [-]s and [-]s to children as young as three or four years old. , what's the difficulty?"

"Okay, okay, it's not a small thing if you don't speak up!" The Japanese envoy was very angry, "Then you dare to let me test you again?"

"How do you want to take the test?"

"Just for the couplet, I said the upper couplet, you take the second couplet!"

As soon as these words came out, the hearts of the civil and military officials tensed again. After all, they were young, and if they answered the difficult questions, it would be over, and neither side would hurt face.Why is it necessary to add extraneous branches?If you can't answer later, isn't it a waste of all previous efforts?

Regardless of what the civil and military officials thought, Chang Sheng wanted to teach this Japanese devil a lesson right now, so he raised his head with his little hand behind his back and said, "Okay, just ask questions."

"The first couplet is: [-]:[-] am in the middle of the night"

"The second line is: Mid-Autumn Festival in the middle of August!"

"I'll post the first couplet: Ying crows in the north, Yan speaks in the south."

"I agree with the second line: Blessings come without pairs, and misfortunes never come singly."

"I'll add a few more words to the last couplet just now: Ying's song goes to the north in autumn, and Yan's language to the south's spring is here"

"Your words in the first couplet are mediocre, but I agree with the second couplet: Blessings are unparalleled to this day, misfortunes never come singly, yesterday!"

"You, you... good, good! Listen to my first couplet: the moon is full in the sky, half the moon in the world, and the moon is full and half the moon! You say the second couplet!!"

"I am right in the second line: the end of this year, the beginning of the next year, and the end of each year and the beginning of the year!"

"I said 'two apes cut wood in the mountains, this monkey can also saw!', hahaha, boy, are you right?!" Wo Nu's eyes were red, his voice was hoarse, and he was in a state of madness.

Chang Sheng heard the sarcasm in the other party's question, thought for a while, and replied calmly: "A horse is stuck in the mud, how can it get its hooves in this life?!"

"You...?!!" The envoy was so angry that he couldn't breathe, rolled his eyes, and passed out.

Seeing that he was stunned by his anger, Chang Sheng cursed inwardly, he deserved it! !
I am majestic, how can I allow you to be bullied by clowns? !
But his expression remained calm, he turned around and gave a deep salute to Yang Jian: "It's a good luck for the boy to live up to his fate."

"Okay, okay," Yang Jian said with a smile on his face, "Tang Guogong is worthy of being the pillar of the country, he raised a good son, very good, very good! Come on, give Li Changsheng 300 taels of silver!"

300 taels?My god, I get so much reward for just a few words, and this money is too easy to earn.

Changsheng was a little dazed, and Li Yuan reminded in a low voice behind him: "What are you doing in a daze, thank you soon!!"

The emperor was satisfied when he saw that Changsheng kowtowed his head a few times firmly.

Glancing again at the Japanese envoy who was still unconscious on the ground, all the anger in his heart disappeared, he got up and waved his sleeves, "Back the court!"

Changsheng lay on the ground, and Xie En didn't dare to stand up. When he saw a pair of exquisite cowhide boots standing in front of him, he slowly raised his head.

When he looked up, he saw a handsome fair face.

Yang Zhao's father, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!

Seeing Yang Guang lightly support him, Chang Sheng stood up.

Changsheng was about to salute, but Yang Guang waved his hand to indicate no need, patted the dust on his legs, and asked with a smile, "Are you the cousin's third son, Changsheng?"

Changsheng didn't know the relationship between the crown prince and his father, nor the specific name of the person in front of him, so he could only answer: "My nephew is Changsheng."

"Not bad, not only is he born with a good-looking talent, but he is also very knowledgeable. My kid is dull. I need to teach him more in the future."

"Where is your highness, my cousin is pure in nature, lively and cute, I am ashamed of myself." Chang Sheng bowed to the ground.

The prince was about to say more, when he heard Li Yuan say: "What are you still doing here? Haven't you gotten enough of the limelight yet? Leave your mother alone for a long time, she should be worried about you."

After Li Yuan finished speaking, his expression became serious, and he gave a deep salute to His Royal Highness, "Your Highness, I will take my leave first." After speaking, he glanced at Chang Sheng, turned around and strode out of the hall.

The prince waved his hand in return, looked at Li Yuan's back, smiled and said nothing.

Yang Zhao was afraid of his father and stood aside, not daring to speak out.At this time, seeing his father looking at him, he said in a low voice, "Father, my cousin and I can go."

Yang Guang smiled, "You performed well today, let's take Changsheng back."

Only then did Yang Zhao feel relieved, and ran away with Chang Sheng.

The smile on Yang Guang's face gradually disappeared, and he muttered to himself: "Li Yuan, Li Changsheng".
