Zhu Yuanzhang read it again, "Is this your pair? What did we think it was...wait, this pair..."
"Father, don't worry. If you can confront me before I leave the palace, you will win!" Zhu Jun said with a smile.
Zhu Yuanzhang really wanted to be tough once more, saying that he could answer it casually.
But this pair of first couplets cannot be solved casually.
Zhu Di stepped forward and couldn't help but said: "Wonderful, this pair is so wonderful!"
Zhu Yu also nodded and said: "This sentence uses four nouns - chicken, rice, boy, tube, and one adjective - hungry.
The two verbs - steal and beat - describe a life scene very simply and vividly: a hungry chicken steals grain, and a child chases it with a bamboo tube.
Moreover, these seven characters have three pairs of homophonic sounds: "hunger" and "chicken", "robber" and "rice", and "child" and "tube".
This sentence is very difficult and not easy to get right. "
Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it carefully, and finally stared at Zhu Jun, "Did you come up with this? And you said you heard it from others?"
Zhu Jun spread his hands and said aggrievedly: "Father, this is not a difficult match. If you can't do it, I can help you do it!"
"I understand. You knew we were going to have a pair again this year, so you asked Li Yanxi in advance, right?" Zhu Yuanzhang gritted his teeth.
Zhu Jun sighed, "Father, you don't have to play if you can't afford it. The pair you just made were all made by you yourself. I couldn't have done it by running back and asking Mr. Li, right?"
Moreover, Mr. Li did teach me some simple rhyme pairs of oblique and oblique rhymes, but he said that for pairs, poetry is a trivial matter, and he taught me very little in this area.
Most of them explained the meaning of the scriptures, allowing me to understand the thoughts and principles of the saints! "
Lao Zhu's face was burning, "Okay, just wait, we will definitely come out right!"
He was really unconvinced.
Seeing Lao Zhu with a straight face and covering his head as he thought about something, everyone looked at each other in shock.
Zhu Yu changed the subject, "Father, it's just one pair, why don't we let the big guys deal with other pairs?"
"Yes, Father, for the others..."
Before Zhu Di finished speaking, he was interrupted impatiently by Zhu Yuanzhang, "Don't bother us, we have to deal with this pair today!"
Then Zhu Yuanzhang ran to the side and frowned, not even taking the exam.
This time everyone laughed bitterly.
"Lao Liu, you have stumped my father now!" Zhu Di hooked Zhu Jun's shoulders and asked: "Tell Fourth Brother, did you think of this couple yourself, or did you hear it from others? "
"I must have thought of it myself." Zhu Jun said without blushing or heartbeat.
Seeing Zhu Jun's vow, Zhu Di also believed him, because Zhu Jun would blush, lower his head, and dodge his eyes whenever he lied.
"Good boy, you really impress me!" He patted Zhu Jun on the shoulder, feeling indescribably happy.
Zhu Yu also smiled. In fact, these days, Zhu Jun's changes can be felt in his words and conversation.
His younger brother was no worse than others, he was just given up too early. If he had met Li Yanxi earlier, he might have been more talented than he is now.
"Uncle Liu, can you tell me the second line?" Xiao Pangdun frowned, the flesh on his face was lumped together, and he looked like "囧".
"I want to go, and whoever can resist, I will reward him five thousand taels, but only for today!" Zhu Jun said with a smile.
Zhu Shangbing looked at his father and said, "Dad, you have great literary talent. You must have the second line in your heart, right?"
Zhu Sha had a damn literary talent and put his foot on Zhu Shangbing's ass, "You bitch, you want to go on your own, I won't tell you even if I have the second line!"
Zhu Yu glanced at his autistic father and sighed.
ask for it.
Who made him unable to play, despised Lao Liu, and was taught how to behave.
He looked at those stupid kids and said, "Come on, let me test you..."
The eunuch ran to the back of the palace and repeated what happened, leaving everyone stunned.
"How is this possible!" Zhu Suxin said: "Zhu Feng... How could Sixth Brother be so good as to stump the father?"
"Princess, even if I have ten courages, I don't dare to talk nonsense!" The eunuch knelt on the ground, "His Royal Highness King Wu also said that whoever can match this pair today will be awarded five thousand taels. It will not expire. Wait!"
"You must have heard about cheating from someone else!" Zhu Suxin said.
Queen Ma glared at her, so frightened that Zhu Suxin quickly closed her mouth.
Zhu Jingyan, on the other hand, wrote down the pair and said: "It's really a superb pair, it's hard to match up easily!
Mother, I believe this is the match that the sixth brother came up with on his own! "
"I believe it too!" Zhu Suying said: "Just because the sixth brother matched up against the father, the last pair was clearly the father's cheating. Not to mention the sixth brother, I can match him!
Father's first couplet said: I am number one in the world!
The second line can be right: Children and grandchildren are unparalleled in the world! "
Queen Ma nodded, "Your father has such a temper, he loves to play and is tough-tongued. Fortunately, Lao Liu is filial and didn't give him the last chance!"
Queen Ma naturally has a certain literary talent and appreciation ability. Zhu Yuanzhang, the last couple, said that he was the best in the world. If Zhu Jun faced him, wouldn't it be a slap in the face?
At this point, she paused, but her eyes were full of joy. Zhu Jun's progress was more important than anything else.
"Come on, let's all look at each other. If we match up, I will reward you heavily!" Queen Ma said, pointing to the pair in Zhu Jingyan's hand.
Soon, the dumplings were wrapped, but still no one came up to Zhu Jun's pair.
During the New Year's Eve dinner, Lao Zhu sat at the top without saying a word, but Zhu Jun sat on his right, and Queen Ma on the left.
Normally, the person sitting on the right side of Zhu Jun is Concubine Mu. This time, Concubine Mu gave up her seat to Zhu Jun for the first time.
Zhu Yu and others were sitting at other tables.
"Your Majesty, it's time to say your congratulations!" Queen Ma pushed her husband.
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't even raise his eyelids, "Lao Liu, you say a congratulatory speech for us!"
"Ah?" Zhu Jun never expected that this congratulation would fall on him.
Everyone was staring at him, with hundreds of pairs of eyes up and down, but he, Zhu Jun, was someone who had been through a big event after all. He cleared his throat and said, "Then I'll be brave and I'll give this year's congratulatory message!"
He stood up, picked up a glass of wine, and said loudly: "As we enter the new year, everything goes well, the grain is plentiful, the weather is smooth, the world is peaceful, the people are safe and prosperous, and good luck comes!"
"Okay!" Zhu Yu touched his palms and raised his cup, "Good luck!"
Everyone stood up one after another, except Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma, "Yin Sheng!"
Dang Dang Dang!
On the bell tower, the melodious bell rang, indicating that the eight years of Shenwu had passed quietly!
It was getting dark outside, but the Huagai Hall was brightly lit. Lao Zhu usually talked a lot at this time.
But now, without saying a word, his eyes dimmed and brightened, as if he was still thinking about that couple.
Empress Ma sighed and said, "Why do you want to compete with your children? If you can't match them, you'll be fine this year, right?"
