Zhao Hao is really tired!

As the only grandson of the Duke of Zhen, and enjoying the favor of the emperor, he seems to have unlimited glory, but in fact he lives in fear every day.

Isn’t his status high?

high!

But Zhen Guogong, the commander-in-chief of the general, was set up under one person, so it didn't end well no matter what.

Although the emperor loved him very much, he still felt cold on his back, so he showed the characteristics of a playboy from his infancy.

The mother's milk supply was insufficient, so she had to find a wet nurse.

But when he chooses wet nurses, he only chooses young and good-looking ones, regardless of whether they can be fed or not.

When he was a little older, he didn't learn any martial arts, and only lingered among the flowers with a few acid poems.

Fortunately, the Zhao family has good genes, otherwise the body would really not be able to withstand it.

well……

Seeing Zhao Hao dismounting, an old eunuch walked over with small steps.

"Master Hao, please come with me!"

Zhao Hao asked with a smile: "Old Cao, why did the emperor ask me to come?"

Eunuch Cao smiled and said: "You also know that the marriage envoy from Qi State has arrived..."

"Huh? I don't know!"

Zhao Hao looked confused: "I didn't get off the flower boat all day and night, and no one told me!"

Eunuch Cao: "???"

Zhao Hao secretly laughed in his heart, of course he would not know about the marriage between Huang and Qi.

The wilderness country is located in a barbaric wilderness. Although it has won successive battles, its treasury has long been depleted and it cannot afford military expenditures.

The Qi State was rich and had a weak army. Every time it lost a battle, it had to cede territory and pay compensation.

The two countries of Huang and Qi have only one city bordering each other.

Diplomacy from afar and attack from close range, the two sides hit it off immediately and formed an alliance.

The Huang State attacked Wei to alleviate foreign aggression for the Qi State, while the Qi State provided military support for the Huang State.

A month ago, Zhen Guogong defeated the Wei army, and Qi's foreign troubles suddenly eased a lot. In order to deepen their friendship, Qi State sent a peace mission.

Today should be the day to choose a son-in-law for the princess of Qi.

Eunuch Cao waited for a while before saying: "Confucianism and Taoism are prevalent in Qi State, and the princess also admires literary and elegant people, so today's banquet has set three test questions, namely national policy, articles and poems, which can tempt her.

, you can become the prince-in-law of Qi. But you also know that our barren country relies on military force to build the country. The national policies and articles are okay, but the poetry is..."

Zhao Hao understood the emperor's meaning in an instant, and immediately patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, Old Cao, isn't the emperor just asking me to support the face of our deserted country? I, Zhao Hao, can't do anything else, but I am so full of talent.

I can’t finish it, so let those scornful scholars from Qi State have a taste of my coquettishness!”

After hearing these words, Eunuch Cao looked extremely troubled.

What does it mean to be full of talent but never finish it?

He is worthy of being the world's most dandy, his words and deeds are really vulgar!

But the poems written by this kind of person are the best in the entire desert country. Are you angry or not?

It must be because the people in the wilderness are not good at this and suffer the disadvantage of being uneducated.

right!

That must be it!

Zhao Hao, however, did not feel the embarrassment of Eunuch Cao at all, and asked himself: "Old Cao! What is the process of our banquet?"

Eunuch Cao replied: "The process is not complicated at all. It's just that the talents of Huang and Qi will write national policies, articles, and poems respectively..."

Zhao Hao raised his eyebrows: "Qi State also has talents?"

Zhao Hao was quite surprised by this information.

A hundred years ago, the Han Dynasty collapsed and the princes emerged.

After fighting and annexing each other, there were only five kingdoms left in the Central Plains. The predecessors of the royal families were all famous families.

The Wild Kingdom originated from the barbaric land of Western Xinjiang. Although its culture is in the same vein as that of the Central Plains, it has never been taken seriously by the five countries, and there is no cultural exchange at all.

So what if your national strength is not inferior to the five countries?

We say you are a mud-legged kid, but you are a mud-legged kid. So what if we don’t play with you?

This marriage led to the first cultural exchange between Huang and Qi.

No matter who loses or wins, or whether the marriage can be successful, setting this precedent will be of great benefit to the wilderness country. It seems that Qi State is sincere enough this time!

Of course, Zhao Hao did not dare to express this idea.

Eunuch Cao nodded: "Of course there are talents here!"

Zhao Hao was furious: "If you want to get married, just get married, but you still have to compete with our barren country for literary talent? My grandfather has helped the Qi country a lot, but these grandsons come to mess up the situation? It's really too much!"

Eunuch Cao couldn't help showing a look of contempt, thinking that this dude didn't even know the meaning of this banquet, yet he was still talking nonsense here.

He smiled and then took out two pieces of paper from his arms.

"These are the national policies and articles produced by the talented people of Qi State, which are half as good as the talented people of our barren country. The emperor means that the poems must win, otherwise the banquet will really be lived up to."

Zhao Hao took it and said angrily before opening it: "It's true, Grandpa Emperor, the world thinks I am only good at poetry and songs, doesn't he know that our national policies and articles are equally good? The first two games were not called

Do you think you can't afford to fall in love with me?"

Eunuch Cao's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but curse: "How are your national policies and articles written? Don't you have a clue in your heart?"

Although this dude's poems are all about love between children, even the great scholars from other countries couldn't help but praise them after reading them.

But when the great scholar looked at his article again, he could only say eight words: Within a hundred words, Zhao Hao is invincible.

But if it’s more than a hundred words…feel it for yourself!

After all, if you hang out in a brothel all day long, what amazing thoughts can come to your mind?

He sighed: "Master Hao, why don't you take a look first?"

"Okay!"

Zhao Hao was reluctant in every possible way, but he still browsed through it. After reading it, his face felt a little unnatural.

Eunuch Cao smiled and asked, "What do you think?"

Zhao Hao's eyes were a little evasive, but he still said firmly: "I can only say that it is good. If it were me, I would definitely be able to overwhelm them!"

Let’s just say this, this national policy and article are indeed good.

But it's just good. Not to mention the eternal masterpiece hidden in Zhao Hao's mind, even if he writes it himself, he may not lose, but he just doesn't dare to write it.

The so-called talents of Qi are actually just that.

It was probably the Emperor of Qi who gave in. After all, for such a great favor, he definitely didn't want to let the Huang country lose face.

It's a pity that he didn't expect that the literati from the desert country would stretch their hips like this.

Eunuch Cao thought he had a guilty conscience, so he smiled and continued to lead the way.

Along the way, we reached the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Zhao Hao raised his eyebrows. It was just a marriage exchange, but it was arranged directly in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. It was completely a large-scale celebration. It seemed that the emperor also attached great importance to this marriage.

In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the atmosphere was a bit dull.

In the center of the temple, a thick incense stick was half-burned.

All the talented people had grim expressions on their faces, and they were all dejected. It was obvious that they had suffered a lot.

The officials of Huang Country stared at the incense, their expressions not very good.

Even Emperor Jiang Zheng frowned slightly and looked quite unhappy.

Seeing Zhao Hao appear at the door of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Jiang Zheng couldn't help but his eyes lit up. He was about to wave to him, but saw him sneaking behind Zhao Dingbian, the Duke of Zhen Guo, without saying a word.

When did this kid learn to be so low-key?

Jiang Zheng couldn't help but frowned.

However, when Zhao Hao immediately took the towel off the table and wiped his neck, his brows suddenly relaxed again.

Because there were bright red lip prints all over his neck.

I still remember the last time I saw this boy, I asked him what he did on weekdays. The boy only replied with seven words:
Chapter completed!
