Li Shimin's compensation must be very large.

Unfortunately, the ministers were smart enough to participate.

"Damn Liu Hongji, you married Xuxian so well..." Many ministers looked at Liu Hongji, and no matter how they looked, they felt that this bastard was annoying.

Only the Liu family was the first to participate in the betting.

At this time, Li Shimin's voice sounded again and said slowly: "Now, King Zhao of Xifu, is Li Yun, who wants to fight with the nobles' children. I set up an off-field gambling plate and collect five bets in total..."

As he said that, he stopped, looked at Empress Changsun, and said again: "The queen bets three portions on behalf of her children, namely King Jin, Princess Changle, and Princess Qinghe."

Then he looked at Concubine Yang, pondered for a moment and said, "Concubine Yang bets for her children, which should be taken over by King Li Ke of Wu."

There have been four strokes, all of which come from the royal family.

Li Shimin finally looked at Mrs. Liu Hongji and smiled and said, "Duke Kui Mansion, I want to ask if I win this transaction, which child will your Liu family take over it?"

"Give it to the legitimate son Liu Renshi!" This was the words that Mrs. Liu Hongji blurted out.

Li Shimin was obviously a little surprised and looked at Mrs. Liu and said, "Liu Renshi was born to Duke Kui's deceased wife. Are you sure you want him to take over this bet?"

Mrs. Liu nodded firmly and said solemnly: "Since the time when I bet, I have never thought of letting my child take over it."

Before Liu Hongji could react, a Duke in the crowd suddenly pounded his chest with his elbow and scolded in a low voice: "Go and stop your wife quickly. Don't waste this bet. Your legitimate son will learn art with King Zhao. You will not worry about not having a background in the future. Don't let the legitimate son take over this bet. Finding another offspring will be of great use."

This country is fair and is very loyal and steady.

Liu Hongji was still a little confused and subconsciously said, "Why?"

Niu Jinda looked so angry that he suddenly waved his hand and gave him a hard hammer, cursing: "Don't ask, tell Your Majesty quickly, you will definitely not give this bet to Liu Renshi, it is best to give the child you have now. You are too stupid, and I will explain it to you in the future."

Liu Hongji then said 'oh', and hurriedly squeezed to Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, can you change someone?"

As he said that, he pointed to his wife and said in a low voice: "For her child, this woman is very sincere to my Liu family. Just now, Duke Yun hit me twice and asked me to replace the bet with a child to take over."

Li Shimin snorted coldly and stared at Liu Hongji and said, "If you have this virtuous wife in charge of the back house, your family business will definitely be developed in the future. I was still secretly planning just now that I would cancel this bet if you don't come out."

As he said that, he looked at Mrs. Liu Hongji and said in a deep voice: "Did you hear it? Your virtuousness has not been in vain."

Mrs. Liu Hongji's eyes turned red and she suddenly covered her mouth and sobbed.

Unfortunately, Liu Hongji still didn't understand. This guy obviously didn't understand why his wife cried.

But Li Shimin is no longer willing to explain, and he has no responsibility to explain to his ministers as an emperor.

At this time, Li Yun also faintly guessed Li Shimin's gambling plate, stood aside and smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty, your strategy is too big. We young people are just betting on a literary battle. Your move will shock the world."

Li Shimin held his hands behind his back and said lightly: "Will you lose intentionally and let their desires be wiped out?"

Li Yun turned his head to look at Empress Changsun and found that the queen was looking at this side, then looked at Concubine Yang, who was gentle and reserved, and Concubine Yang was also looking at this place.

Liu Hongji didn't look at him, but Mrs. Liu was full of anticipation.

These are people who expect to win.

Winning and losing are too important to them...

Li Yun smiled bitterly again and answered the emperor with an ill-intentioned question: "Since ancient times, there is no first in literature, so there is no need to win a fight in literature. It was originally just a play, so why did your Majesty go through a lot of trouble?"

Li Shimin didn't even look at him, and suddenly walked forward with his hands behind his back. The emperor looked at the noble children opposite him and said in a deep voice: "You fight with King Zhao Wen. I specially set up a gambling plate. The compensation is huge, which is amazing. You will never think that what I want to pay is the king..."

Wow!

The whole audience was in an uproar!

Buzz!

There was a buzzing sound immediately afterwards.

All the ministers were stunned. They didn't expect that the bet would be this. They just saw the queen and Yang Fei trying their best to participate and guessed the bet as big as possible. Unfortunately, the answer was still unexpected. His Majesty was going to pay the king.

The king is the king's title.

Could it be that he wants to be the king?

The bet is too scary.

The queen and Concubine Yang's son are fine. After all, they are already personally named the king's title, but there is also the Liu family who participates in the bet. Does anyone in the Liu family also want to be named the king?

That's a king of different surnames...

Li Shimin glanced at the audience and took all the expressions of everyone. Then the emperor looked at the noble children and suddenly said, "I have already said the compensation, but whoever can get it depends on your ability."

As he said that, he said immediately: "If King Zhao of Xifu wins, then the king will be granted the bet on him."

"What if we win?" The nobles were completely unable to maintain peace.

Li Shimin smiled casually and replied lightly: "That king is yours..."

Buzz!

All the young people present were confused.

How is this possible?

Win the title of king?

They are not the blood of the royal family. If they were granted the title of king, wouldn’t they be kings of different surnames?

Looking at the entire Tang Dynasty, there were only two or three kings in different surnames counting over and over again. Only two or three had not yet finished it. Soon after the founding of the country, the title was taken back.

The king of a different surname in the Tang Dynasty could not even think about it.

Because the one who can be granted the king of a different surname is not an ordinary person, at least he must be the leader of the anti-king before the founding of the country. After the founding of the country, he will never be able to grant the king of a different surname. Basically, if one royal dies, one will be taken back.

However, now, because of a literary battle, His Majesty will be granted the title of King of a different surname and will give a goal directly. No matter who wins, he will be awarded the title of King.

Good guy!

Even if you die, you have to fight for it.

Those who can come to the Imperial Garden to attend the flower viewing conference are the legitimate descendants of civil and military officials. A small number of them are the eldest sons and may inherit the titles of their fathers in the future, but most of them are second sons, and they need to fight for all their futures themselves.

Even those legitimate sons have no chance of being crowned kings in this life. At most, they inherit the titles of Duke or County Marquis, and according to the rules, they may even decrease.

Li Shimin's bet compensation was indeed so scary.

Those noble children are almost crazy.

Their fathers are actually going crazy...

Only Li Yun's heart was moved secretly, and suddenly walked to Li Shimin, approached him and whispered: "Second uncle, do you want to play so much?"

Li Shimin smiled and turned to stare at him and said, "Are you afraid?"

Li Yun pondered slightly and whispered: "I'm likely to win, these scholars are not my opponents."

"Is that true?"

Li Shimin said casually and said indifferently: "That's better. The only king of a different surname will be granted the Liu family. Although Liu Hongji is a mess, his wife is not as good as men. The Liu family has always been a royal family. If they can be granted a king, it will be a great encouragement."

Li Yun tried for a long time but failed to test Li Shimin's meaning. He pondered for a while and decided to continue testing, saying, "But there has been no first in literature since ancient times. If I lose, wouldn't I betrayal? You are the dignified emperor, and you speak like Tianxian. This matter is said in front of everyone. No matter who loses or who wins, you will be awarded the title of king..."

As he said that, he pretended to be moved and said, "You are the king of the different surname. There are only two kings in the Tang Dynasty. Both of them are still dead. In fact, there are no kings in the different surname."

"You were wrong!"

Li Shimin glanced at him and whispered: "There are many kings of different surnames in the Tang Dynasty."

Li Yun was stunned, because he had no memory.

Li Shimin looked at him again and said with great meaning: "I guess you will figure it out soon, but you must have no time to think about it at this moment. Look, those noble children who long to be the king can't wait."

The two of them had a very low voice, almost whispering. Everyone present was extremely curious, but no one dared to come over and eavesdrop on one sentence.

Since they dare not eavesdrop, they will find a way to intervene. So the ministers hinted at their descendants and signaled to start today's literary battles as soon as possible.

So a group of young people flocked forward, and Li Shimin's last sentence was also referring to this.

Li Yun smiled helplessly and looked at the emperor deeply, then he slowly walked out and quietly waited for the noble children to start.

But before the nobles started, Li Shimin suddenly started to speak again and said slowly: "Today's viewing of flowers is a great thing, the so-called literary fight, the struggle of literary affairs. Since I have opened a gambling plate, I am qualified to give the title. King Zhao of the Western Palace, all the juniors, why don't you compare poems, lyrics, songs and essays first, let me and your fathers read it together?"

Poetry and songs?

The nobles are good at it.

The group of young people were all excited, and some of them were already dancing.

Li Yun felt that the emperor was a little strange today. This requirement was obviously a bit of a biased attitude, but it was not a biased attitude to him, but a biased attitude to the other party.

To be honest, Li Yun is not good at poetry and essays. He wrote poems several times before, but in fact he copied them all. Perhaps it was because the plagiarized poems were too good that Li Shimin was very confident in him.

The emperor may not be trying to make a flippant, but felt that Li Yun would definitely win.

But this cannot be said, Li Yun was really helpless.

It is not so easy to copy poetry. At least one thing, you have to focus on the topic first. For example, someone asked him to write a poem describing summer, but he copied a poem "The scenery of the north is so beautiful that it is snowing all over the world". No matter how majestic the words and sentences are, they can guarantee that they can reveal their shortcomings.

If you want to copy a poem, you must have a large amount of inventory in your stomach and then win by quantity. No matter what topics others ask, you can find the corresponding poem.

This is exactly the headache for Li Yun, because he doesn’t have much inventory in his stomach.

But Li Shimin suddenly opened his mouth and started to ask questions.

But when the emperor saw the emperor with his hands behind his back, he looked at Li Yun and the nobles with a smile and said, "It is late spring and the summer is coming. I will use the summer as the theme and let you write poems and fight each other. If you can win, remember a score first."

As he said, he stopped slightly and then said: "The Wen Dou is divided into five games in total. Winning three games is like winning all of them. Therefore, because of this, it is even more intense. As the title of this first summer game, winning is equivalent to stepping into the threshold of the King's Gate..."

The nobles' eyes were all red.

Li Yun suddenly smiled faintly.

It turned out to be a summer theme, it seems that it's time to pretend to be...
