The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Your Majesty has decreed that the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet of the ninth year of Zhenguan will begin now.

Li Shimin, Empress Changsun and others sat down in their respective seats, and then a eunuch took a step forward and announced loudly to the attendees in front of him.

As soon as the eunuch's voice fell, fireworks started shooting into the sky around the Taiji Palace Square.

Fireworks scattered everywhere, lighting up the night sky.

Your Majesty, these fireworks are so beautiful! Queen Changsun turned around and said to Li Shimin.

Guanyin Maid likes it, I will let people set off fireworks for you every year! Li Shimin looked at Empress Changsun and smiled.

Queen Changsun's illness seems to have improved a lot recently.

It is no longer like before where it only happens every two or three days. .??.

Li Shimin thought that Guanyin was happy every time she saw Zhao Chen.

This Qi disease has gradually eased a lot.

As a concubine, I am worthy of your majesty. Your majesty, all the ministers are waiting for you to announce the civil and military competition! Empress Changsun said with a smile.

I'm also looking forward to this year's literary competition, who will be the final winner in the end! Li Shimin took out the unopened poem he got from Zhao Chen from his sleeve, and waved to the eunuch Wutongue next to him, Announce it. .”

Yes, Your Majesty! Eunuch Wu Tongue responded, took a step forward and said, Your Majesty has decreed that the civil and military competition will begin. The first competition is the martial arts competition. All participants are invited to come on stage.

…

Brother, look at these fireworks, aren't they beautiful!

Pingkangfang is a romantic place, and it is especially lively during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

When Zhao Chen and others came over, the street was already bustling with people.

Fireworks were being set off in the distance, mixed with the cheers of the people.

This year's fireworks were specially transported from the south. They are definitely the best ever. Qin Huaiyu explained with a smile.

Pretty good! Zhao Chen nodded in agreement.

Zhao Chen is not very interested in fireworks.

interest.

After all, these things were far worse than what he had seen before.

He just wanted to experience the lantern riddles of the Tang Dynasty's Mid-Autumn Festival.

A few days ago, Zhao Chen heard Uncle Fu say that every year during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Chang'an City holds a lantern riddle guessing contest.

Lantern riddles are extremely difficult. It has been several years since anyone has solved all the riddles.

Uncle Fu then encouraged Zhao Chen to give it a try. Maybe he could guess all the lantern riddles and become famous in Chang'an City?

Zhao Chen has the ability. After all, being a tavern owner is not a long-term thing.

Uncle Fu thought that if possible, if Zhao Chen could become famous in Chang'an City, there would be more opportunities in the future.

Zhao Chen was talked about by Uncle Fu many times before he agreed to give it a try.

No, after walking for so long, I didn’t see any lantern riddle guessing activities.

Lao Cheng, Xiao Qin, I heard that the lantern riddles in Chang'an City are difficult. Isn't it held this year? Zhao Chen stopped and asked the two of them.

Riddles? Cheng Chumo was stunned as he stared at the fireworks in the sky, unable to react for a while.

Zhao Chen, you don't want to guess lantern riddles, do you? This is very difficult! Qin Huaiyu looked at Zhao Chen with a somewhat suspicious expression.

The lantern riddles in Chang'an City are very difficult. There are ten lantern riddles in total.

Qin Huaiyu usually studies at home and thought he could get by easily.

Who knew that he would be stopped at the first lantern riddle.

Qin Huaiyu's confidence was greatly affected that time, and he felt that all the books he had read over the years were in vain!

Zhao Chen wants to guess lantern riddles?

Why does it sound so unreliable?

Fu Bo

You want me to try it, maybe I can figure out all the lantern riddles at once? Zhao Chen said with a smile.

Hehe, Uncle Fu may have misunderstood this time. Brother, let me tell you, Xiao Qin has read a lot of books over the years, and he didn't even publish his first lantern riddle last year!

When I got home, I was so angry that I almost burned the book! Cheng Chumo stood aside and revealed Qin Huaiyu's background.

Qin Huaiyu's face turned red and he scolded, You're a better boy than me. I asked you to read a puzzle and you said you don't know it?

I don't like reading. Who is like you, pretending to read, even...

Fart, you are practicing martial arts, why don't I see you fight with that bastard Du He!

Zhao Chen was waiting for them to take him to guess lantern riddles.

Then I thought that these two people actually started arguing.

Don't make any noise, wait for me to solve all ten lantern riddles for you! Zhao Chen said calmly.

As expected, the two of them stopped and looked at Zhao Chen with deep suspicion.

Let's go, I'll take you there! Cheng Chumo glared at Qin Huaiyu, put his arm around Zhao Chen's shoulders, and walked forward.

Zhao Chen, Lao Cheng, wait for me! Qin Huaiyu shouted from behind.

…

This Du He is really powerful. After such a long time, there must be a lot of people who have been up there, but no one is his enemy!

There is someone who will succeed Prime Minister Du. This Du He will definitely become one of our great generals in the Tang Dynasty.

Chai Lingwu, whom King Wei sent just now, didn't last three moves. King Wei's face doesn't look good!

At the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet outside Tai Chi Hall, the martial arts competition has reached its final stage.

Du He, who played in the East Palace, has defeated almost all his opponents.

At this moment, Du He stood alone on the martial arts competition ring, looking at him proudly

ahead.

Prince Li Chengqian had an excited look on his face.

Du He's performance today definitely earned him a lot of face.

Looking at Li Tai's pig liver-colored face, Li Chengqian couldn't help but feel happy.

Chengqian, this Du He is pretty good! Empress Changsun said with a smile.

Mother, Du He is my right-hand man. I didn't expect that he would be so capable! Li Chengqian was even more happy to receive Empress Changsun's affirmation.

The only thing that disappointed him was that his father Li Shimin didn't seem to be interested in this martial arts competition.

There is probably no one in the younger generation who can be Du He's opponent. In my opinion, this martial arts competition should end here! Li Shimin waved his hand and said.

He is particularly curious now about what Zhao Chen wrote in the poem he wrote to himself!

Wuyu, announce the next match. Li Shimin waved his hand and said.

Your Majesty has decreed that the martial arts competition is over and the winner is Du He.

Now, Wenbi begins. Eunuch Wu Tongue shouted loudly.

Your Majesty, Wang Ji of Taiyuan, on behalf of the East Palace, is participating in today's literary competition! As soon as the eunuch finished speaking, he saw Wang Ji, whose beard and hair were all white, walking over.

Seeing Wang Ji, Li Shimin's eyes narrowed slightly.

Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and others who were sitting next to them stood up directly, raised their hands to Wang Ji and said, Uncle!

I didn't expect that an elderly person with limited legs and feet would be interested in participating in this literary competition. Li Shimin smiled slightly and said to Wang Ji.

Although he said this, Li Shimin was already getting annoyed in his heart.

Wang Ji was a member of the Wang family in Taiyuan.

Now he has actually represented the East Palace in this Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.

Are you already starting to take sides?

I'm still fine!
