Chapter 10: Become the King in Advance! Three Chant at the Age of Five! Become Famous!

Cui Shen and Wei Bi are two different types of people, which can be seen from their emotional values.

Although he could no longer compose poetry, Cui Shen's emotional value still increased by twenty.

This poet of the Five-Character Great Wall is indeed a true man of culture.

The jumping Prince Jing Li Zhi in the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests once again caused the whole room to burst into laughter.

Only the emperor's brothers would dare to act so presumptuously in the palace.

Wei Bi was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, fearing that this nickname would really spread.

"Li Zhi! You! You are disrespectful! You are going too far!"

As the state banquet was coming to an end, Cui Shen sighed deeply.

"Your Majesty, the more I think about these three poems by the Third Prince, the more I admire them!"

"The words are simple and lively, the artistic conception is innocent, and the poetry is natural!"

"Ode to the Goose, Ode to the Snow, Ode to the Needle. Three poems at the age of five. This will surely be a legend for all time!"

Emperor Qing nodded with satisfaction, "You are worthy of being a disciple of Master Zhuang. You have a broad mind!"

Cui Shen continued, "Your Majesty, I am a humble minister, but I would like to help the Third Prince to make connections."

"My master is famous all over the world. I would like to recommend the Third Prince to be my master. I beg Your Majesty to grant my permission!"

Zhuang Mohan is the leader of the world's literary world, and no one in Nanqing can be his disciple.

Emperor Qing said with a smile, "You are such a Five-Word Great Wall, you have poached my brother!"

The ministers of Nanqing were discussing the matter and their opinions diverged.

Zhuang Mohan is a recognized literary giant in the world, but he is not accepted by everyone.

This opportunity to become a disciple is very rare.

However, Emperor Qing's brothers became disciples of Northern Qi people, which made the Southern Qing literary world seem too weak.

After finally producing a genius, he had to go to Northern Qi to become a disciple.

The incompetence in the literary world has always been a thorn in Emperor Qing's side.

The scholars from Nanqing and Dongyi were proud to go to Northern Qi to take part in the imperial examinations.

Although he would not be able to become an official in Northern Qi after passing the exam, he would definitely be able to get an official position when he returned to his country.

Because everyone in the world believed that if one could rank among the top three in the Northern Qi Dynasty, one would be qualified to be an official in the world.

Deep down in his heart, Emperor Qing didn't want Li Changan to become Zhuang Mohan's apprentice.

Even if Li Changan became a great poet in the future, people all over the world would say that it was taught by Northern Qi!
Emperor Qing turned to Li Changan and said, "Third brother, are you willing?"

Li Changan shook his head and bowed to Emperor Qing.

He said with a serious look, "Your Majesty! I am willing to be Daqing Zhuang Mohan!"

Li Changan's words once again made the atmosphere in the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests fall into a cold silence.

Most of the people in the palace are scholars, and they know how high Zhuang Mohan's status is.

Even the people of Nanqing felt that Li Changan's words were a bit crazy.

But Emperor Qing doesn't think so. He believes that the literary world is just a tool of rule.

He was good at scholarship and wrote beautiful poetry and prose, but he was far from being deified.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Emperor Qing said three good words in a row, which were very powerful!

“Daqing students should have this ambition!”

"How can we always seek teachers for poetry and culture?"

Emperor Qing had long wanted to revitalize the literary world, but there had been no improvement.

This kind of thing is just like football. No matter how rich and powerful a country is, if it can't play well, it won't play well.

Therefore, Li Changan spoke in accordance with Emperor Qing's thoughts.

Even if everyone thinks it is arrogant, Emperor Qing will agree with it very much.

The officials of Southern Qing finally reacted and congratulated Emperor Qing.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty. The Third Prince has lofty ambitions!"

"Your Highness is ambitious and we admire you very much!"

“There is hope for the revitalization of Nanqing’s literary world!”

Cui Shen shook his head and disagreed with Li Changan's arrogance.

"Your Highness the Third Prince has made such bold statements. I, the outsiders, will wait and see!"

Emperor Qing put his hands together and his tone became serious.

"Don't, Third Prince, the Third Prince is shouting!"

"When I have a third prince in the future, I won't be able to tell who is who!" Emperor Qing's eldest prince and second prince are the first and second children.

The third prince of Emperor Qing was made the crown prince and was not in the sequence of princes.

The fourth prince, Fan Xian, did not trace his ancestral roots and of course was not included in the sequence of princes.

So, the third prince he was talking about now was his fifth child, Li Chengping.

After hearing Emperor Qing's words, the ministers seemed to understand the mysterious meaning.

If he is not called the Third Prince, then he will be crowned as a king!
Li Changan saved face for Nanqing today and also expressed his ambition to revitalize the literary world of Nanqing.

Emperor Qing is going to reward handsomely!

As expected, Emperor Qing continued, "Mr. Cui is right. My third brother started chanting at the age of five!"

"I will borrow the word 'Yong' and confer the title of Prince Yong on Chang'an!"

"From now on, my third brother is His Royal Highness Prince Yong of Daqing!"

"It means, great prosperity, Yongle Chang'an!"

Emperor Qing spoke in a loud voice, and it seemed as if the beams of the house were shaking when he said this!
The state banquet is about to end, and the officials of Nanqing are excited!
Li Changan's coronation as king brought the atmosphere to a climax!

All the officials of Nanqing bowed down to the ground in submission!

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, and congratulations to His Royal Highness Prince Yong!"

"Daqing prosperous era, Yongle Chang'an!"

The atmosphere was right, and the Northern Qi envoys also came to pay their respects and offer congratulations.

The emperor's descendants are usually given the title of king.

However, sons of the previous emperor like Li Changan were usually given the title of Prince and sent to their fiefdom.

For example, King of Changsha, King of Lanling, King of Jiangxia and so on.

However, Emperor Qing directly conferred the title of Prince Yi Zi on him, which could be considered a great favor.

An innocent smile appeared on Li Changan's face.

Tonight's goal was exceeded!
He originally thought that it would be great if Emperor Qing could reward him with a few eunuchs and palace maids.

Who would have thought that Emperor Qing actually cared so much about the weaknesses in the literary world.

How can a leader who aspires to unify the world tolerate a culture inferior to others?
At this banquet, Li Changan maximized his benefits.

Once you are conferred the title of king, your power ranking will definitely rise dramatically!

Become famous by writing poetry, and your literary and artistic ranking will also rise!
Li Changan's influence in this world will definitely increase significantly!

Once this matter ferments for a while, maybe the system can settle it!
The system will reward you with Red Dust Points after settlement, so you can continue to become stronger, or even develop your power secretly!

The cultural competition at this state banquet ended with Nanqing winning!

These three poems will cause a huge stir in Qing Kingdom.

The people of Nanqing, who have a deep-seated cultural inferiority complex, gave a complete vent.

……

The next day, Yishiju.

Yishiju Restaurant is one of the most luxurious and wealthy places in Beijing.

Especially those who consume on the third floor are either rich or noble, or talented men and beautiful women.

"...and it disappeared even after flying into the plum blossoms. How wonderful! How did you come up with this idea?"

"The Asshole Marquis was so difficult, but Your Highness easily solved it! How amazing!"

"If it were me, I couldn't untie it even if I killed myself!"

"The world-famous five-character Great Wall doesn't write poetry anymore!"

All the young scholars were vying to recite Li Changan's three poems.

“The words are so childish, but the meaning is so vivid and lifelike!”

"Rhetoric is only an aid. The highest realm of poetry is when words can convey the meaning!"

"No! Not only must it convey its meaning, but it must also be elegant!"

"So it seems that, except for the last one, the first two are absolutely amazing!"

"No! I just like the last one. Even though it's not as poetic, it makes me feel better!"

Scholars in several rooms were discussing the same topic!

"His Highness Chang'an was crowned a prince at the age of five, and he is also a prince with the first character!"

"Your Majesty's favor towards this young brother is comparable to that of a prince!"

"Your Highness Prince Yong has composed three poems at the age of five. It can be said that he has made great contributions to the country!"
