If I could describe it in one word, it would be seamless.
Normally, Xiang Kunlun would never bother arguing with these people, but today is a good day.
Then just pretend, oh no, show off properly.
He stood up leisurely and asked three consecutive questions directly to this strange man.
"Since you said so, I want to ask you."
"First, do I have arbitrary power? Second, do I kill innocent people indiscriminately and massacre people every time I go to a country. Third, how many practical things have I done for the people since I became the emperor."
"I can tell you one after another. Then tell me, how can I do this by relying only on force? If you have enough force, can you do it?"
These people were speechless and exchanged glances, feeling that the situation was not good.
It is rumored that Xiang Kunlun is just a martial artist, but the civil servants around him are quite powerful.
I just didn't expect that Xiang Kunlun himself was already so slippery, but it was impossible for them to just admit defeat.
Since this attack point has failed again, let's change the angle again.
Immediately afterwards, they really started talking about Xiang Kunlun's cultural level.
Xiang Kunlun dug his ears irritably, almost laughing at these people.
I kept talking about catching him all day long.
Indeed, he usually doesn't show much about his high level of education, but this doesn't mean that he is completely illiterate.
As for literary talent, not to mention how much knowledge I have learned here, just taking out all the modern things is enough to make these people completely incomprehensible.
boom!
Xiang Kunlun placed the wine glass in his hand heavily on the table.
"Since you said so, I will help you tonight. Tell me, what do you want to compare?"
These people suddenly felt a little unsure, wondering whether Xiang Kunlun really had real talent or knowledge, or was just a bluff.
They think that if everyone wants to be embarrassed now, it will be embarrassing, so they must not give in no matter what.
One of them stepped forward and said loudly: "Since the emperor has such a taste, how about we compare the poems and the correct ones?"
Xiang Kunlun sneered and agreed without saying a word.
"In order to prevent everyone from thinking that I am bullying you, as guests, you should start first."
These contemptuous words made everyone below angry and angry.
Only the man in brocade clothes remained calm.
There was a man with a jade pendant hanging on his belt. He looked gentle and looked like a sickly young man.
Unexpectedly, when he opened his mouth, he actually wrote a poem about concern for the country and the people, which made the people present excited.
This shows that he still has some foundation.
As soon as he finished the song, everyone present applauded him.
He looked at Xiang Kunlun provocatively: "It's your turn to be the emperor."
Xiang Kunlun hardly thought at all. He randomly selected a song from each of the five dynasties: Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing, and recited them all word for word.
After reciting it, there was no applause, but silence.
People were so shocked that they forgot how to applaud, and even forgot to manage their expressions.
It is really not easy to write a poem with artistic conception.
But if a person just blurts it out without thinking at all, and every one of them is a classic, how can this not surprise people
At this moment, there was only one thought in everyone's mind. It turned out that the most powerful genius in the world was standing in front of them.
If the emperor recruits any talents, he can just recruit them himself.
The person wearing the jade pendant was already livid at this moment. If he no longer wanted to admit defeat, he could only admit that his skills were inferior to others.
Seeing him deflated and hearing Xiang Kunlun's strength with his own ears, no one left said anything.
Xiang Kunlun still didn't intend to let them go.
He originally liked poetry, and the competition with this person just now aroused his desire to write poetry.
Of course, to be precise, it's memorization, but that's not important.
Xiang Kunlun took the wine bottle with one hand, raised it high, and filled the wine glass with wine.
Raise your glass and take a sip, followed by hundreds of poems and songs.
This operation shocked the entire audience.
A blond man with blue eyes stood at the farthest position for a long time, watching with cold eyes.
Now that I see Xiang Kunlun taking the limelight, I can't stand it anymore.
He stepped forward and said, "The emperor of the Dragon Kingdom is both civil and military, and we admire him greatly."
First he was flattering, and then he changed the subject.
"But if a country wants to prosper and its people live and work in peace and contentment, it doesn't just rely on these useless poems."
His implication was that Xiang Kunlun was a piece of straw for embroidery pillows and could only dance and write.
Even if you have a little bit of effort, it cannot promote the development of the entire country.
Xiang Kunlun smiled slightly and did not refute.
He poured himself another glass of wine and talked about some ideas on how to practice oil, smelting iron, and collecting agriculture.
Of course, the core content has not been revealed to them, but being able to express one or two such thoughts, and every sentence is on point, is already quite impressive.
As the saying goes, insiders watch the door, while outsiders watch the excitement.
These people are not stupid. From these few sentences, you can tell that Xiang Kunlun knows too much.
Finally no one spoke anymore.
All the geniuses were impressed by Xiang Kunlun.
Xiang Kunlun nodded with satisfaction, finally achieving the result he wanted.
He thought to himself that it was not in vain that he was reciting poems and making jokes and drinking and acting.
For acting, you need big earlobes. He really can't act.
Now that there are talents, how to arrange them so that everyone can perform their duties is a very important point.
If the leadership is not good, it will not only not help the development of the Dragon Kingdom, but will also cause the Dragon Kingdom to get into unnecessary trouble.
At this point, he called Zhuge Liang into the room, and the monarch and his ministers had another discussion.
"Kong Ming, these geniuses come from various places. Whether it is eating habits or regional customs, they are all different. In your opinion, how should we accommodate them?"
Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment.
"Kong Ming does have an idea, but he doesn't know whether to talk about it or not."
Xiang Kunlun looked at him a little funny: "Although the relationship between you and me is a monarch and a minister, we are more like brothers. Besides, there are only you and me here, no outsiders. If you have anything to say, just say it."
He knew in his heart that Zhuge Liang would never mention anything unreliable, so he was very curious about what Zhuge Liang's plan was.
