Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

Royal study.

The sound of heavy breathing continued to come from Zhou Tian's mouth.

He looked solemn and shocked.

"Is this really written by the prince?"

Looking at "Ode to Bamboo" on the rice paper in his hand, Zhou Tian still couldn't imagine that it was written by Zhou Zheng.

"Your Majesty, it is indeed the prince who made the decision on the spot."

The officials kneeling below kowtowed in response.

Today the prince is weak, and every move in the prince's palace cannot escape the eyes of the court. Moreover, Zhou Zheng's poem recited in front of countless people was absolutely true and not even half false.

Zhou Tian was silent, his eyes were slightly closed, and he didn't say a word.

The entire imperial study fell into deathly silence again, but the atmosphere in the air became more solemn.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness has composed a second poem!"

Not long after, another eunuch hurried over and quickly presented a piece of rice paper.

"Read!"

"There are several plum blossoms in the corner, and Ling Han blooms alone. Yao knows it's not snow, because there is a dark fragrance."

ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

The poems that came to his ears made Zhou Tian couldn't help but take a breath. At this moment, he could no longer maintain his composure. He suddenly opened his eyes and stared at the dry handwriting on the rice paper. He couldn't calm down for a long time.

The language of the whole poem is simple, without any fancy rhetoric.

But the charm in it is quite profound and makes people fall deeply into it!

The officials who were kneeling before were even more confused after hearing this!

In his opinion, the first song "Ode to Bamboo" is already an eternal masterpiece. But who would have thought that in just ten minutes, Zhou Zheng would be able to add another masterpiece that was no less than the previous one!

What kind of evil genius is this?

But Zhou Zheng before was clearly not talented at all!

Even the so-called Prince Young Master Fu Muyun's time to teach him was quite short.

Looking at the entire Prince's Mansion and Zhou Zheng's growth process, there was no teacher except Mu Yun to teach him!

How could he create such a masterpiece!

But, the shock is far more than that!

What really surprised Zhou Tian and the officials below was that another eunuch came next and brought two poems!

A poem about orchids: "There is a beautiful woman in the empty valley, suddenly embracing the loneliness. When the east wind blows, the fragrance is far away and fragrant."

A poem about chrysanthemums: "When autumn comes on September 8th, I will bloom and kill hundreds of flowers. The fragrance of the sky will penetrate Chang'an, and the whole city will be filled with golden armor!"

Four songs in a row, each one can be called a swan song!

It will be passed down through the ages, no problem!

Throughout the hundreds of years of the Zhou Dynasty, there have never been so many masterpieces handed down at the same time within a hundred years!

And today, in just one stick of incense, it was actually made by the same person!

"It can't be him!"

"go with!"

"Check it out for me!"

"I want to know why that traitor could write such a poem!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The officials bowed and saluted in response. They dared not be negligent and hurriedly left.

......

At the same time, the Prince's Mansion!

If "Ode to Bamboo" was like a stone that stirred up a thousand waves, then Zhou Zheng's four consecutive swan songs were like huge waves that shocked everyone to the core!

Everyone became restless.

At this moment, they looked at Zhou Zheng with eyes as wide as those of an ox.

Apart from Ye Tao, there were also many people present who claimed to be men of letters and writers.

But Zhou Zheng's four poems made them feel ashamed.

Even if they were given ten or twenty years to devote their whole life, it would be almost impossible to write a poem comparable to Zhou Zheng's!

There are some things that you are born unable to write, and you will never be able to write them, no matter how hard you try, it will be useless.

"Reciting casually is a masterpiece that will last forever?!"

"Your Highness, old minister, I don't believe you did this!"

Ye Tao's face was as pale as a death at this moment. Zhou Zheng's four poems just now were a slap in the face to him!

The smell of raw pain made him want to find a crack and crawl into it.

But Ye Tao was unwilling to give in. As a Hanlin scholar and a recognized great talent in the world, how could he believe that these poems were written by Zhou Zheng?

This is simply a fantasy!

However, this time Ye Tao's words did not arouse the recognition of others.

Even the three princes looked at Ye Tao with a look that looked like an idiot.

If you say one song is cheating, then of course it’s not a problem

But Zhou Zheng composed four songs in one breath in front of everyone!

The artistic conception of each poem is different, some are majestic, some are simple, some are profound, and some are profound!

Every poem is thought-provoking and endlessly memorable!

In this case, say he cheated?

Is it possible that there are really people in the world who are stupid enough to give up this kind of poem that has left its name forever?

Moreover, if you give it away, you will get four songs? !

"Prince, how many secrets do you have?"

"Not only is the city rich, but he is also so talented. It is a once-in-a-thousand-year experience!"

"No matter how powerful he is in the court, no matter what his relationship with the royal family is, this talent alone is enough to deserve the name of the Poet King!"

"Damn it, I'm even suspecting that the prince has been holding back all these years just for the sake of being a weak crown and becoming a blockbuster!"

"At first I thought His Highness the Crown Prince was just showing off, but who would have thought that he is really talented!"

In the crowd, everyone looking at Zhou Zheng had a completely different expression at this time.

No matter which prince's camp they were on before, or how much they ridiculed and laughed at Zhou Zheng, they all had to admit at this time that in terms of poetic talent alone, the young man in front of them was worthy of being a man of all ages. !

"Zhou Zheng, how many secrets are hidden in you?"

Xiao Mu opened his mouth again and again at this moment, but in the end he still didn't speak.

It had to be said that at this moment, Zhou Zheng's image in his heart had undergone a huge change.

"Hahaha!!!"

"Good poetry, good poetry!"

"His Royal Highness the Prince is eight Dou high in talent and is the best in the world!"

Only Xiao Guan couldn't hold it back any longer, laughing loudly and praising it at the same time!

At the same time, others couldn't help but burst into applause!

After all, the light of talent deserves respect at any time.

Zhou Zheng didn't pay attention to the compliments and congratulations in his ears at this moment, but instead focused his attention on Ye Tao again.

Old guy, so what if I didn’t write it? What can you do to me?

Zhou Zheng sneered in his heart, but his face was serious: "Master Ye is a Hanlin scholar and is very talented."

"The four poems I just made are titled with plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums."

"Master Ye, if you don't believe it was me, it doesn't matter."

"But I would like to ask Lord Ye, why do I, the Great Zhou Dynasty, regard plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums as the Four Gentlemen and are praised by countless literati?"

Zhou Zheng stood with his hands behind his hands and asked in a deep voice.

This question made Ye Tao freeze on the spot, and everyone in the audience was also a little dazed!

Because no one has ever thought about this problem!

It seems that Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum have been the four gentlemen from the beginning.

Zhou Zheng looked around, not surprised, and then started talking again under the eager eyes of everyone.

"I, the Great Zhou Dynasty, value literature and govern the country with benevolence, so whether it is civil servants, military commanders, or the three religions and nine streams, we all value character!"

"Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum are known as my Great Thursday Gentlemen and are sought after by people all over the world. That's because they represent different characters."

"Plum: Plum blossom is the first of the four gentlemen. It blooms when it is cold and blooms after the flowers have withered. It is beautiful and refined, but it does not compete with other flowers. Therefore, it has always been used to symbolize perseverance, pride, and unyielding noble character. "

"Orchid: Orchids mostly grow in secluded places, and their flowers are very light in color. They symbolize alienation from dirty politics and preserve the quality of their beautiful character."

"Bamboo: Bamboo does not wither in winter. It is upright, neither arrogant nor humble, and humble. It symbolizes elegant people who are different from popular customs."

"Chrysanthemum: Chrysanthemums are not only beautiful and elegant, but also have the spirit of not being afraid of the severe cold and fighting against the frost and snow."

"Therefore, plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums represent the four qualities of pride, tranquility, firmness and lightness respectively, which are what a gentleman pursues and longs for throughout his life!"

"I dare to ask Mr. Ye, a brilliant scholar, if he has these qualities?!"
