This person is too strong but insists on eating the empress' soft rice

Chapter 37 It's Your Time

Liang Dong said: "Empress, why don't we use a stick of incense as the time limit?"

After Liang Dong finished speaking, he looked at Ye Chen opposite him with a smile.

He never thought that Ye Chen could compose poems, let alone when he made such a demanding request.

Presumably, Ye Chen, who hasn't read much, shouldn't be able to figure it out, right?
This is where Liang Dong's confidence lies, that's why he vowed to give a time limit for a stick of incense.

The onlookers around were shaking their heads in secret. They also didn't think that it was possible to do this with the background of the empress.

However, under everyone's questioning and skeptical eyes, Ye Chen spoke.

"Liang Dong, you're not asking too much. I'll leave you with a stick of incense in my palace. I've already finished my poem!"

"Listen up!"

"The light rain in Tianjie is as moist as crispy, and the grass looks far away, but there is nothing close. It is the best thing to do in spring, and it is absolutely better than the imperial capital of Yanliu."

In one breath, Ye Chen directly read out a very profound poem in his mind in the previous life.

After this scene spread to everyone's eyes, they were stunned immediately.

Because after carefully reading Ye Chen's poems, everyone can clearly feel the wonderful artistic conception contained in this poem.

Seeing Liang Dong, he was already stunned at this time.

Because he was carefully reading Ye Chen's poems.

After savoring it for a period of time, even he, who has always been arrogant and contemptuous of Ye Chen, has to admit that this poem is wonderful.

"The emperor's poem is simply incomparable, and most likely it will be handed down to future generations!"

Someone let out an exclamation, waking up everyone around.

Everyone stared blankly at the figure of Yushu Linfeng on the stage.

At first, everyone thought that the emperor and empress were just a show-off, with a low level of education and no knowledge of literature or martial arts.

But never expected that Ye Chen would surprise everyone when he spoke.

At this time, Luo Hongyan was looking at Ye Chen's figure dully.

"I didn't expect that I still underestimated this guy!"

Even in her mind, she couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Although, as an empress, she can also compose poems, but it is not so easy for her to compose such good poems as Ye Chen.

At this time, Liang Dong, who was standing on the same stage as Ye Chen, was getting more and more ugly.

Because although he is rampant, he still has a little self-knowledge.

After all, when he heard Ye Chen's poem just now, he could feel the beauty of the artistic conception in it.

But Ye Chen obviously didn't intend to give him too much time to be shocked, and it didn't take long before he heard Ye Chen's voice.

"Liang Dong, it's my turn to write the question next, right?"

Liang Dong looked at Ye Chen with a stiff face, and he knew very well that Ye Chen's poem should be famous enough to last forever.

If I want to beat the opponent this time, I am afraid it is somewhat impossible.

In Liang Dong's dull eyes, Ye Chen's words rang in his ears again.

"Liang Dong, I don't make things difficult for you. Since you used the conditions just now to give me a question, I think you should be prepared for it. Just take out the poems you prepared."

At this time, Liang Dong's expression was extremely ugly.

As a result, after listening to Ye Chen's words, cold sweat broke out on his forehead even more.

Because he didn't prepare any manuscript at all.

To be honest, he didn't intend to force Ye Chen to such a point today, it was all because of King Changping's secret instigation.

But facing Ye Chen's aggressive gaze at this moment, Liang Dong felt so embarrassed that he wanted to find a place to disappear.

He racked his brains, but he couldn't think of a better line than Ye Chen's poem.

He even felt that the poems he could come up with were completely nonsense in front of Ye Chen.

At this time, Liang Dong's father looked at his son in a very embarrassed state from the audience.

He also sighed faintly.

As the saying goes, no one knows a son better than a father, so Liang's father naturally knows very well how capable his son is.

So he opened his mouth and said to Liang Dong on the stage: "Dong'er, step down, this poem written by the Empress is not beyond your level."

When Father Liang said these words, his heart was almost bleeding.

Because he knew very well what it meant to the Liang family when he admitted here today that his son had lost to the empress.

Not only would Luo Hongyan not return all the Liang family's food that Luo Hongyan had borrowed, but they also had to subsidize 100 million taels of silver for disaster relief.

This is an extremely serious matter for the Liang family.

It's no wonder that after listening to Ye Chen's poems, Father Liang's complexion has always been very ugly.

However, the only thing he feels a little relieved about is that this time he was finally able to please King Changping.

If Changping Wang is willing to help the Liang family when they are suffering, it should be an excellent thing for their future.

At this time, Liang Dong woke up after hearing his father's reminder.

At this moment, no matter how reluctant he was, he could only bow his head and admit defeat to Ye Chen.

If Ye Chen's strength is not much different from his, he can still defend himself, but the reality is that he can't even catch up with Ye Chen's literary level.

"Empress, I can't match your poems."

When Liang Dong bowed his head and admitted defeat, his tone was still somewhat unwilling.

However, he didn't just step down. Instead, in his despairing eyes, a glimmer of hope rose in the end.

Liang Dong stood on the stage and said to Ye Chen: "Empress, I, Liang Dong, am willing to compete with you again!"

"Since the emperor and empress have such high attainments in poetry, you must be very good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting."

"In the next competition, if you win again, empress, our Liang family is willing to donate another 100 million taels of silver for disaster relief. If you lose, you don't have to bear any price. What do you think?"

Liang Dong's attitude had long since lost its previous arrogance.

Because he could already feel that Ye Chen on the opposite side was not something he could underestimate at all.

At this time, Ye Chen obviously didn't expect that this guy named Liang Dong still had extraordinary tenacity.

Then he turned his gaze to Luo Hongyan who was at the side.

At this moment, Ye Chen could completely reject Liang Dong's increasingly unreasonable request.

But he felt that it was more appropriate to leave this kind of matter to Luo Hongyan to make a decision.

At this time, Luo Hongyan saw Ye Chen's eyes full of confidence.

So she also knew that Ye Chen must not be afraid of any challenge from Liang Dong, which made her feel very relieved. .

It's just that as an emperor, she has more things to consider.
