Chapter 67: Fighting for the Wind
Li Shimin has many sons, and there are eighteen in history, but there are only two who are most favored by Li Shimin, one is the crown prince Li Chengqian, and the other is the fourth prince Li Tai.
Li Taizi Hui Bao, small character Qingque, was born to the eldest grandson queen, smart since childhood, but he looks a little too bad for the audience, fat, very fat, the kind of fat that can grow meat when drinking water.
Although he is ugly, he has real talent and learning, historical records, Li Tai is talented, intelligent, good scholars love literature, work and grass li, collect thousands of books, is a calligrapher, calligraphy and painting connoisseur at that time. Tang Taizong allowed Li Tai to set up a literature hall in his mansion and let him recruit scholars on his own.
It can be seen from the three poems that Li Tai chanted just now that Li Tai is indeed a bit talented, but his character doesn't seem to be good, and he actually steals other people's poems to pretend to be forced, as a literati in the Tang Dynasty, plagiarism is a very shameful thing.
Although Li Hao is also a copyist, Li Hao is not a literati of the Tang Dynasty, he has no discipline, no lower limit, for such a bastard, plagiarizing some poems is nothing.
"Damn fat." Li Hao snorted angrily and whispered, "Actually stealing my poems to pick up girls in front of me, it's too much!" ”
Cheng Chu on the side was surprised when he heard this: "Why, you wrote the poem he just chanted?" ”
"Hmm." Li Hao nodded and didn't say anything.
"How could he do this!" Cheng Chu snorted silently, "I actually stole your poems, no, I want to tell Miss Qin!" ”
Li Hao stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "You are stupid, if you say that it is my poem, will others believe it, besides, he is the prince, do you want to wrestle with him?" ”
Cheng Chumo rolled his eyes and said, "What's wrong with the prince, can the prince steal other people's poems!" ”
Li Hao looked at him in surprise, he didn't expect that even a rough person like Cheng Chumo despised plagiarists so much, it seems that the people of the Tang Dynasty still despise this kind of thing very much, and it also proves that the people of the Tang Dynasty are very disciplined.
"Okay, now he's using my poems to soak your goddess, you go and slap him!" Li Hao pointed to Li Tai downstairs, excited, he really wanted to see if Cheng Chumo really had the courage.
Cheng Chu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly showed a sly smile, and then opened his throat and shouted: "Li Hao, a man from Lantian County, wants to redeem himself for Miss Qin Su!" ”
As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderstorm on the ground, and the whole floor was fried, who is so arrogant, he actually wants to redeem himself for Qin Su, do you know how much Qin Su is worth, someone once bid two thousand yuan and was rejected by the old bustard, and no one knows how much Qin Su's ransom is worth.
In fact, don't look at those rich second generations and official second generations who often come to support Qin Su, but if they really want to take out thousands of yuan to redeem Qin Su at once, they don't have that strength yet.
Li Tai was very angry, very angry, he was just about to talk to Qin Su about wine, talk about life, talk about ideals, and someone actually wanted to redeem Qin Su for a long time, Qin Su redeemed himself, so who did he find to drink and talk, isn't this a trouble, what is that person's name, oh, yes, Lantian County man Li Hao, hey, what a familiar name, it seems that I have heard it somewhere.
Li Tai thought about it carefully, and finally remembered, it turned out to be Li Hao, who captured Fuyun Khan alive, this guy has been very famous recently, and he has won the appreciation of his father, and the poem he stole seems to be his.
There is a saying that he doesn't do bad things in his life, and he is not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night, Li Tai did bad things, and he immediately panicked, but now he can't run, so he can only bite the bullet and say loudly: "Which friend wants to redeem Miss Qin, please show up." ”
Li Hao glared at Cheng Chumo resentfully, and then said loudly: "I'm sorry, I'm unwell, and it's inconvenient to show up." ”
Everyone immediately booed again and again, scolding Li Hao for being a coward.
Li Tai thought about it when he heard this, and beckoned the old bustard to come over, but then asked, "What is the ransom value of Miss Qin Su?" ”
The old bustard hesitated, slapped him up, and said, "At least five thousand." ”
When everyone heard this, they exclaimed, five thousand, this is simply a sky-high price, although Qin Susheng is very beautiful, but this price is indeed too outrageous.
Li Tai nodded when he heard this, and said coldly: "Okay, I also want to redeem myself for Miss Qin, and I will go out of eight thousand." ”
"Wow-" Everyone was in an uproar when they heard this, but they didn't expect Li Tai to rise directly by 3,000 yuan, what is rich, this is called rich.
Upstairs, Cheng Chumo suddenly snorted coldly: "Lantian County man Li Hao is out of 10,000!" ”
Everyone screamed again, and in the blink of an eye, it rose by two thousand yuan, and ten thousand yuan to buy a beautiful woman, they couldn't understand what these rich people were thinking in their heads.
Li Tai gritted his teeth: "I'll give out thirteen thousand!" Beads of sweat oozed from his forehead as he spoke, this was already his limit, and if he continued to do so, he would probably have to borrow money to live.
Cheng Chumo still wanted to increase the price, but Li Hao hurriedly stepped forward to stop it: "Have you made enough trouble, Lao Tzu's money didn't come from a flood, don't you harm me, if you want to redeem her, you can pay for it yourself." ”
"I don't have that much money." Cheng Chumo pushed Li Hao away and shouted directly: "Li Hao is out of 20,000!" ”
Li Hao fell to the ground with a thud, 20,000 guan, 20,000 guan, what is the concept of 20,000 guan......
All the people in the building were stunned, 20,000 guan is a very terrifying astronomical number, thinking that at the beginning, Li Hao pit Jiangxia King Li Daozong 10,000 guan, Li Daozong was so distressed that he didn't want it, a prince who had been in business for many years was still like this, not to mention others.
The people present were suddenly full of curiosity about this Li Hao, what kind of loser thing is it, willing to spend 20,000 yuan to redeem a woman, even if this woman is the first beauty in Chang'an and the goddess in their minds, they also feel that 20,000 yuan is too terrifying.
Li Hao got up from the ground, and was just about to shout that it doesn't count, but Cheng Chumo hurriedly went up to cover Li Hao's mouth and shouted again: "Twenty thousand, is there anyone higher than me!" ”
Li Tai's face was like ashes, his fists were clenched, aggrieved, extremely aggrieved, he was the emperor's favorite prince, his father was the lord of the world, but he lost to others in money, can he not be aggrieved.
The old bustard on the side was so happy, she never dreamed that someone was willing to spend an astronomical amount of 20,000 guan to redeem Qin Su, she had already begun to think about how to spend 20,000 guan.
Li Tai was silent for a long time, and shouted unwillingly: "Bastard, Miss Qin Su is the first talented woman in the Tang Dynasty, do you think you can do whatever you want with two stinky money!" This king will not allow it! ”
"This king?" Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and they didn't know who it was, but they suddenly exclaimed, "Oh my God, this ...... This is the King of Wei! ”
As soon as these words came out, the scene was in an uproar, even Qin Su was shocked, and the old bustard was shocked into a cold sweat, this fat man is the king of Wei, so how can he sell Qin Su to Li Hao, it is estimated that the front foot will be sold, and the back foot will be gone.
The others were shocked when they learned Li Tai's identity, but Li Hao was very angry when he heard his words, this thing is really shameless, just steal your own poems, you can't compare to the money, you will show the identity of the prince and oppress people, looking so ugly is enough to be sorry for the audience, and so shameless, Li Hao was angry, pushed Cheng Chumo away, walked to the window, looked at Li Tai, and said: "So, His Royal Highness the King of Wei, if my poems and essays win you, what do you say?" ”
Li Tai was stunned when he heard this, this is the first time in his life that someone dares to challenge himself to poetry, although Fang Xuanling said that this is Li Hao's work when he presented "The Wind into the Song" to Li Shimin, but Li Tai didn't believe it at all after reading it, because Li Hao was only fourteen years old at that time, and a fourteen-year-old little kid could say "Tomorrow from the disabled drunk, to find Mo Shanghuadian" words? So he thinks that this song "The Wind Enters the Song" was also copied by Li Hao.
He really guessed correctly, this is indeed a poem copied by Li Hao, but he never expected that Li Hao copied more than one, not dozens, but thousands. Isn't there such a saying, killing one person is a crime, killing 10,000 people is a general, in the same way, copying a poem is plagiarism, and copying a thousand poems is a poet.
In terms of literature, Li Tai has an arrogance that ordinary people can't reach, Li Hao's words have completely aroused his fighting spirit, he slowly raised his head, and said proudly: "If you can win this king in poetry, then you will redeem Qin Su for half of the money." ”
"That's true!" Li Hao was excited when he heard this, half of the redemption fee, that's 10,000 yuan! Can he not be excited!
"This king is naturally serious when he speaks!" Li Tai snorted coldly, "Don't be too happy, if you lose, then what?" ”
"If you lose, you lose." Li Hao raised his eyebrows and said, "This is originally a poetry meeting, and there are naturally winners and losers by exchanging poems." ”
"How can it be!" Li Tai shouted angrily when he heard this, "If you win, I will give you 10,000 yuan, but you don't have to pay anything if you lose, how can there be such a good thing in the world!" ”
Li Hao shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands: "You took the initiative to bring it up, and I didn't force you." "He's a scoundrel.
Li Tai was so angry that he gritted his teeth and said angrily: "If you lose, leave a finger, dare you compare!" ”
Li Hao frowned when he heard this, he didn't expect this Li Tai to be quite vicious, if he was like everyone else, wouldn't he have to chop off a finger before he could leave.
At the beginning, Li Hao didn't want to conflict with Li Tai, because he knew that although Li Tai was very broad, he was relatively narrow-minded, and it was not a good thing to offend him.
But now Li Hao has changed his mind, not to mention stealing poetry and this bet, Li Tai's vicious personality alone makes Li Hao very disgusted, what about the prince, what about the King of Wei, you will not die in your own fiefdom in the future, and be a powerless prince for the rest of your life, the advantage of the traverser is immediately reflected, the feeling of knowing the direction of history, one word - cool!
Li Hao no longer hesitated, turned around and walked out of the private room, slowly walked down the stairs, came to Li Tai and stopped four feet away, and said with a smile: "Okay, I accept it." ”
