The Three Kingdoms are invincible

"Since Mr. Xun and General Gao are here, let's start the competition." Cao Song said with a slight smile.

General Gao?Xun Nian was slightly surprised. Could it be that the young man next to him was Gao Shun who had made meritorious service in defending the city?

What Xun Nian had been told before was that Cao Song intended to accept him as his son-in-law, but Cao Cao had chosen someone else as his son-in-law, so today the two of them went to Cao's mansion together for a literary competition, and the winner would be the winner. Married to Miss Cao's family.

However, Xun Nian didn't know the identity of his competitor, he only thought that he was a son from a famous family just like himself.

Gao Shun seems to be the only general named Gao in Dongjun City, but it was only heard yesterday that he and Guo Jia's sister were married, so how could he appear here today?And the opponent isn't a general, so how can he compete with himself for literary talent?

Although he felt strange, Xun Nian didn't show any doubt on his face, but always had a decent smile on his face.

"I am a great man who governs the country with filial piety. It can be said that 'filial piety' is the foundation of our dynasty. Why don't you two write a poem titled 'Mother' today to reflect your filial piety?" Cao Song gave The title of the game.

As soon as Cao Song finished speaking, Cao Cao couldn't help cursing in his heart. This was all deliberately making things difficult for Gao Shun.It's no secret that Gao Shun is a young orphan and lost his mother since he was a child. Anyone who has a little understanding of his life experience knows it.And at this time, my father actually used the theme of a loving mother. Not to mention that Gao Shun has no poetic talent, even if he has great literary talents, how can you let an orphan perfectly describe the image of a loving mother through a poem?

Asking Gao Shun and Xun Nian to compete in literary talents was already deliberately suppressing each other. Cao Cao hadn't been optimistic about this competition beforehand, and he was even thinking about how to appease his little sister after Gao Shun's defeat.Now that Cao Song's question is so aimed at Gao Shun, it seems that he doesn't want to give him any hope at all.

"Which one of the two will sing first?" Cao Song asked with a smile.

"I'm not talented, so I'll show my ugliness first." It was Xun Nian who spoke.In Cao Song's heart, he probably never expected Gao Shun to compose poems before Xun Nian, or in other words, he never thought that Gao Shun would have the ability to compose a poem with the theme of a loving mother.

Although Cao Cao didn't want Xun Nian to be his sister-in-law, Cao Cao couldn't help nodding his head slightly after reading the poem.Although the other party is not very old, his literary talent is indeed outstanding.A few short poems have vividly portrayed the old mother's benevolent, kind and peaceful demeanor.

"Can you think about General Gao's work?" Cao Song was very satisfied at the moment. Xun Nian really lived up to his reputation. It seemed that Gao Shun had no chance at all.But the superficial work still needs to be done, and the question must always be a symbolic question.

thinking?As early as when Cao Song came up with the question, a famous poem through the ages had already entered Gao Shun's mind. Now that Cao Song had asked the question, Gao Shun was not polite. The upper garment. Before leaving, the seams are densely packed, and I am afraid that I will return later. Whoever says the heart of an inch of grass will be rewarded with three springs."

After reciting a poem, a picture of the wanderer going on a long journey, the scene where the mother handed the clothes sewn overnight to the wanderer, and the scene of repeated urging because of worry emerged in the minds of the three of Cao Cao.

Everyone was shocked!

Before Cao Song could say something, Xun Nian bowed to Gao Shun first, and said humbly, "General Gao is a great talent, but years are not as good as him."

Gao Shun also hurriedly returned the gift, and praised him repeatedly, but he said inwardly: "Of course, this is a poem that is famous for later generations, and it must be much better than what you wrote."

Cao Song's face was a little ugly, but it wasn't hard to see where to go.Gao Shun's poetic talent can almost be described as amazing. If this is the case, then he is definitely capable of both civil and military skills, and it is not too unacceptable to marry his daughter to him.The only shortcoming is that after marrying Gao Shun, her daughter is the same as other girls, and she is an ordinary wife, not the only official wife.

Of course, Cao Cao was the happiest person in the arena. Didn't he think that Gao Shun was so good at reciting poems?I haven't heard him sing poems much before, could it be that he deliberately hides his clumsiness?

"Hehe, it's too rash to decide the winner with one poem. I think Mr. Xun may not be convinced. How about this, everyone recite three poems, and the winner of two of them is the winner." Perhaps Cao was really unwilling Ming married Gao Shun as a flat wife—even though the status of a flat wife and a regular wife are exactly the same, Cao Song wanted to see if Xun Nian had a chance to win back, "the first poem chanted by General Gao The composition is better than that of Mr. Xun, but Mr. Xun does not need to be discouraged, I will not make a proposition for the next two poems, just improvise."

"I don't want to play tricks like this. If it was Xun Nian who won just now, I'm afraid your old man would have announced that he would marry his younger sister." Cao Cao was naturally slanderous about Cao Song's decision.

But the slander belongs to the slander, since the father has spoken, then follow his will.Anyway, with Gao Shun's previous performance, Cao Cao now trusts Gao Shun's level.Let that Xun Nian lose more thoroughly, so that my father can no longer find any excuses to evade.

"Last time it was Mr. Xun who chanted first, but this time General Gao will sing first." Cao Song said to Gao Shun.

Gao Shun nodded, and after a little thought, he began to chant two poems:

"Thousands of miles to go to the army, Guanshan is like flying. Shuoqi spreads to the gold watchman, and the cold shines on the iron clothes. The general dies in a hundred battles, and the strong man returns after ten years."

"The iron clothes were shattered on the battlefield of hundreds of battles, and the south of the city has been surrounded several times. Break out of the camp and shoot General Huyan, and lead the remnant soldiers back with thousands of horses."

Gao Shun's chanting, one is a fragment of Mulan's Ci, which can be pulled out as a poem at this time, and the other is Li Bai's "March in the Army".At this time, although the seven-character poems were not popular yet, they had already begun to spread.

Cao Song, Cao Cao, and Xun Nian were speechless for a long time after hearing this.Of these two poems by Gao Shun, the first expresses the determination to go to the battlefield, and the second expresses the cruelty and tragedy of fighting to the death under desperate circumstances. No matter which one is worthy of being handed down as a masterpiece.What's more, Gao Shun recited these two poems as a general, which seemed much more heroic. "A general dies in a hundred battles, and a strong man returns in ten years." From Cao Cao's ears, Gao Shun was expressing his determination to die.

"Shoot and kill General Huyan in a sudden camp, and lead the remnant soldiers back with thousands of horses... General Gao's talent is far superior to mine, and Xun Nian is willing to bow down." Xun Nian knew that no matter what kind of poems he wrote, he would never be able to catch up with him. opponent's level.In this situation, he also appeared to be generous, directly admitting defeat, without any pretense.

"General Gao's poetic talent is indeed among the best. However, poetry is not the only style of writing in the world. Why don't you two write a Fu every other time? How about the comparison?" When Cao Song said this, the old face couldn't help but He blushed slightly, and he also knew that his behavior at the moment was indeed a little shameless.

Cao Cao: "..."
