Chapter 638: Clouds want clothes, flowers want to look
After the last envoy finished reading the poem, Gao Yang still shook her head, indicating that none of the poems matched her heart.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it seems that your verses do not impress the princess." Zhang Nan said.
At this time, another envoy immediately protested, thinking that the princess was deliberately making things difficult for them, after all, it is almost impossible to make a poem that matches the appearance of a person without seeing that person's face.
As an envoy of the Arab Empire, he was not good at reciting poetry, and even the poems he had just made were also thought of by racking his brains.
Seeing someone dancing more happily, Zhang Nan immediately thought of a way to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, after all, the latter questions are more difficult than the first two, if each of them makes them protest like this, then the work of choosing relatives will not be able to continue, although Zhang Nan's goal is to let these envoys go back and forth from where, but the face still has to go.
"It seems that this envoy does not agree with our princess's examination questions." Zhang Nan said.
After hearing this, the envoy of Da Shi nodded hurriedly, and then said in Chinese that was not very fluent: "That's right, I think that the exam questions of Datang are not fair, and no one can do such a difficult question at all." ”
"This envoy, if you can't do it, someone will be able to do it, and if everyone can't do it, it can only mean that your level is limited." Zhang Nan still looked smiling.
When Zhang Nan said this, he undoubtedly annoyed all the envoys present, so someone stood up and reasoned with Zhang Nan.
"Okay, don't say more, in this way, I will compose a poem on the spot, if it meets the requirements of the princess, those who think that our Datang exam questions are too difficult, please quit automatically, how about this?"
As soon as Zhang Nan said this, the envoys were silent, although they all felt that the exam questions read out of Zhang Nan's mouth were deliberately making things difficult for them, but who made them ask for marriage? In the face of difficulties, they can only bear it silently.
However, when the envoy of the Great Food heard Zhang Nan say this, he stood up and said: "Since the adults are willing to write a poem, then we must all be willing to listen to it, if the adults can really make it, we are willing to quit automatically." ”
The envoy of the Great Food said this, in fact, because he did not get the death order of his own king in this courtship activity, and the order given by the Great Food King was that it was best to be able to ask for a kiss, if not, then it would be enough to repair the relationship with the Tang Dynasty.
After all, Da Shi and Da Tang are far apart, and both sides adopt a military strategy of long-distance friendship and close attack, so as long as the relationship is repaired, there is no need to make peace.
Zhang Nan nodded after hearing this, since there are really people who are willing to make the first bird, Zhang Nan is happy to kick out first and talk about it alone.
"Your Majesty, did the minister do it?" At this time, Zhang Nan turned his head and said to Li Er, and Li Er at this time also nodded, signaling that Zhang Nan could start.
Zhang Nan got Li Er's answer, and slowly read out the good answer he thought was in his heart.
"Clouds want clothes, flowers want to look, and the spring breeze blows Revlon. If it weren't for the jade mountain, it would meet Yaotai under the moon. After Zhang Nan finished reading the poem, he turned his head and saluted Li Er again.
And after listening to Zhang Nan's poem, Princess Gaoyang also nodded slightly, proving that she also liked this poem.
After listening to this poem, the courtiers present also whispered, Zhang Nan's poem cleverly avoided describing the princess's appearance, but praised the princess's appearance everywhere.
It really makes people can't find anything wrong, and Zhang Nan's first sentence used clouds and flowers as a metaphor for the princess's clothes and appearance, which is indeed not off topic.
"Adults are quick thinkers, and they are admired." The envoy of the Great Food arched his hand at Zhang Nan, and after saluting Li Er again, he retired.
With the envoys of Da Shi as an example, the envoys behind them did not jump out again, after all, they were ordered to do their best to marry a princess for the country.
Of course, Zhang Nan's next few questions are not too excessive, in order to save the face of these envoys, Zhang Nan took it upon himself to change the next two questions to painting and intelligence tests.
The remaining envoys were also ranked, and of course, the first place was still Lu Dongzan.
The first day of the test was over, and after everyone was gone, Li Er left Zhang Nan behind, and along with the eldest grandson queen, Li Lizhen and Princess Gaoyang, it seems that Li Er plans to have an internal family meeting, although Zhang Nan is not Li Er's family.
"Qingquan, the questions you came out today are still very good, at least the group of envoys didn't answer all of them, and the test will continue tomorrow, but make sure they can't tell the winner." Li Er said with a smile, and it could be seen that Li Er was still very satisfied with today's test results.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, today's test is just an appetizer, tomorrow the minister guarantees that these envoys will not be able to answer a single question, today is just to save some face for them." Zhang Nan also said with a smile.
"I didn't expect you to look very good, but you're still very good at poetry." Princess Gao Yang looked at Zhang Nan and didn't know what expression to say.
It seems that there is a strong contrast in the impression that Zhang Nan left on Princess Gaoyang, but Zhang Nan naturally will not worry about the little girl Princess Gaoyang.
"Okay, Qingquan, you and Lizhi go back, tomorrow's affairs still have to depend on you." It was rare for Li Er not to leave Zhang Nan to lecture in the palace, so Zhang Nan also quickly rode out of the palace with Li Lizhen in a carriage.
In the carriage, Li Lizhi also kept looking at Zhang Nan who was sitting at the other end of the carriage.
After watching it for a long time, Rao is Zhang Nan is thick-skinned and embarrassed, so Zhang Nan touched his face and asked, "What's wrong princess, do I have any flowers on my face?" ”
Li Lizhen heard Zhang Nan's question, and then she reacted that she looked at Zhang Nan in a daze, so Li Lizhen hurriedly lowered her head, and then said: "It's okay, it's just that I admire your talent, Lord Zhang, it's really amazing to be able to make such a poem in such a short time." ”
When Zhang Nan heard this, he laughed and said: "Princess, you have won the award, and this kind of thing depends on fate." ”
"Really? It turns out that composing poetry is also based on fate. After listening to Zhang Nan's words, Li Lizhi also nodded, seemingly agreeing with Zhang Nan's words.
The carriage quickly returned to the house, and as soon as he entered the mansion, Zhang Nan saw Cui Yue and Jin Shengman Jindeman waiting for him in the courtyard, which made Zhang Nan inevitably have the illusion that his wife was waiting at home when he came home from work, but in this illusion, there were three wives.
