Wu Zetian has read two short poems.==If you have read this chapter, please move to "/" to read the latest chapter. You can also search for "" or "" directly on Baidu. Please remember our new website./

But when she read it through Shangguan Wan'er, she was slightly drunk and felt as if she was suddenly hit by something, and her shoulders trembled.

A dou of fine wine in a golden cup costs ten thousand yuan, while the dishes in the jade plate are precious and worth ten thousand yuan.

But the worry makes people put down their cups of chopsticks and are unwilling to eat. They pull out their swords and look around, feeling confused.

Just two short lines of words resonated with Wu Zetian's heart. Isn't that the same? Her fine wine and food, glory and wealth have long made her unable to get interested.

If you want to cross the Yellow River, you will be blocking the ice and blocking the river, and you will climb the mountain with snow. What a great ideal. When Emperor Taizong of Tang was there, she was just a fifth-rank talented person. However, she has been well-read since childhood and is definitely not an ordinary woman. Although she knows that she can live a peaceful life with a luxurious life, she has great ideals like Qin Shaoyou, who has a lot of family business now. They are not willing to be willing to change. They hope to change and must change. If a person cannot make great achievements, then what is the difference between him and an ant? So Wu Zetian, who was once a talented person, and Qin Shaoyou, who was once a chef, wanted to cross the Yellow River and see the strong ice blocking the river; she wanted to climb the Taihang Mountains and feel the heavy snow all over the mountains.

In the past, Wu Zetian really wanted to get the trust of Emperor Taizong. She performed her best, just like Qin Shaoyou now, but they were all disappointed. From beginning to end, when Emperor Taizong was there, Wu Zetian was still just a talented person, just an ordinary concubine. As for Qin Shaoyou, although Qin Shaoyou got an official position, she thought she could be valued by King Wen like Jiang Taigong fishing by the stream; she could also be favored by King Shang Tang like Yi Yin who was dreaming about the sun.

But……

It is difficult to walk! It is difficult to walk! There are many misaligned roads, how can we be there now? How difficult is the road of life? What a difficult is the road of life, and where is the real road?

They were all disappointed. As talented people, Wu Zetian is like this, and now Qin Shaoyou is like this.

But behind this short poem, when Shangguan Wan'er recited the last sentence "There will be a time for the wind to break through the waves, and the clouds will sail across the vast sea." Wu Zetian's body shook and tears faintly appeared in his eyes.

No matter how difficult it is to travel, what's the harm? Qin Shaoyou now believes that although his feet are mixed, sooner or later he will raise his sails to cross the blue sea and the sky. This is his belief. Just like when Emperor Taizong died and Wu Zetian cut his hair into a nun, even if Wu Zetian had many setbacks, he still waited secretly in order to make a comeback.

Wu Zetian glanced at Qin Shaoyou deeply.

This poem evokes too many memories of her.

So when the second poem was read, Wu Zetian was finally moved. The road of life is so wide that I have no way out. I don’t want to follow the rich children in Chang'an City to play gambling games such as cockfighting and dogfighting. Like Feng Xi, playing swords, singing and complaining, and servitude is not my wish. People in Huaiyin City ridiculed Han Xin for being cowardly and incompetent, and the Han Dynasty’s ministers were jealous of Jia Yi’s talent. You see, in ancient times, King Zhao of Yan valued Guo Wei, was humble and respectful, and did not suspect any suspicion. Ju Xin and Le Yi were grateful for the kindness of knowing the experience, and were loyal and wise, and served the monarch with their own talents. However, King Zhao of Yan had long been dead, so who could value the wise as he did?

This poem is more like Qin Shaoyou's confession of Wu Zetian. Qin Shaoyou compared himself to Han Xin and Jia Yi, and regarded those who mocked and looked down on him as people from Huaiyin City and ministers of the Han Dynasty. He told Wu Zetian that I have the talent of Jia Yi and Han Xin, but where are my Liu Bang and Emperor Wen?

Wu Zetian's eyes had become deeper. These two poems not only resonated with her heart, but also made her think of Qin Shaoyou and her own depressed self before. At the same time, she was very sensitive to the deep political background behind these two poems.

Is Qin Shaoyou talented?

Of course there are.

If he is not talented, why did he become an assistant teacher? It took him just a few months to educate a group of students to become talented? If he is not talented, how could these two ups and downs and ups and downs of poems alarm the four of them?

Even after hearing two short poems, the six learned doctors seemed to have a sharp sword penetrated into their hearts. Even though they had quibbling words, they were just two short poems that made all their resistance disappear.

These two poems are unprecedented. Although the rhythm is lacking, the words and intentions are both wonderful and can be remembered forever!

This time, more than 60 students wrote two short poems by Qin Shaoyou on the test paper. There were dozens of people who had handled the test paper, and it would soon spread. At that time, Luoyang would be shocked.

what does that mean?

Qin Shaoyou's talent is irrefutable. He compares himself with Le Yi, Jia Yi, and Han Xin. Perhaps before the two small poems appear, he will become a laughing stock for Luoyang people, but when the poem comes out, all these ridicule will turn into shock.

If Wu Zetian was indifferent at this time, it means that she was not King Wen of Zhou or King Tang of Shang. She could not match Liu Bang and was far inferior to Emperor Wen of Han, because these wise monarchs who are still praised have cherished talents and had wise men to assist.

The wise man is right in front of you!

Wu Zetian had to make a decision before the two short poems were spread, whether to choose to be King Zhou of Shang who knew unknown people or King Tang of Shang who appointed wise men; whether to be Emperor Ling of Han who favored the ten eunuchs, or Emperor Wen of Han who knew the torch with wise eyes.

As for these six doctors...

They did have great influence. They were academic officials, Qingliu, and Qingliu in Qingliu. They were full of students and had a good reputation. This is why when they attacked Qin Shaoyou, Wu Zetian was afraid and remained silent. Because although these people had a humble official position, their influence was too great. Is it worth it to cause the quarrels of the world for Qin Shaoyou?

But now, the situation has reversed, and there is only one reason. When they scolded Qin Shaoyou for being ignorant, and as soon as the poem was written, they became a joke. They claimed to be talented and highly praised by the world, but they were blind. Even a talented person like Qin Shaoyou could not tell the difference, and there were only two reasons.

First, they don’t even have the most basic vision. A person without vision is worthy of being a school official. They don’t even have the ability to distinguish right from wrong. How can they distinguish students’ good or bad in the future?

Secondly, they falsely accused Qin Shaoyou of being jealous of the talented people, which involves the issue of virtue. As a scholar, no matter how good your knowledge is, if your virtue is lacking, it is almost a fatal flaw.

What Wu Zetian feared the most was their reputation. Once the reputation was gone, just a few sesame officials from the sixth rank would be worthless in her eyes.

Now, she must either stand on the side of the worthless official, becoming the biggest joke in the world. Or she must stand with Qin Shaoyou and create a story between a wise ruler and a talented man; other than that, there is no other way to go.

So when she saw two lines of poems, she had already made a choice.

After Shangguan Wan'er finished reciting the poem, when the six doctors were all sitting on the ground with a look of earth, Wu Zetian didn't even stay on their bodies for a moment, because... they were worthless!

A trace of mist rose in the eyes that were touched to the heart. She looked at Qin Shaoyou with red lips pursed, with a subtle smile.

She smiled very well, as warm as spring, as if a loving mother saw the wanderer returning home, and her eyes were filled with warmth in that moment.

"Do these two poems have famous poems?"

When Wu Zetian spoke, it was like chatting between family members. He did not act hypocritical and everything was so natural.

Qin Shaoyou sighed in his heart. Although he had already planned to fight back, these two poems were really unexpected. How could he have thought that those students were playing so much?

"It has a very style." Qin Shaoyou thought to himself.

He stepped forward and replied, "Your Majesty, both poems are called difficult to walk."

………………………………………

Okay, my mood has calmed down, thank you for your concern. In fact, when the tiger looked in the mirror a few days ago and found that he became more handsome, he knew that fish and bear paws should not have both. He would lose whatever he gained. He was so handsome that he deserved it.

However, people who call tigers are ugly, you know.
