There was no one left to follow the rules of the competition. Qingning looked at the pen, ink, and paper that was handed down, and truly felt that this Grand Empress Dowager was probably a Transcender as well.

Making poetry out of peach blossoms was basically a sub-topic on a rotten street. Basically, before the ladies had arrived, they had gotten the teachers to prepare a few poems on peach blossoms and spring.

After reading the entire piece, only Qingning was bored to death. He reached out his hand and folded the corners of the xuan paper.

Seeing that, Hongjin squeezed himself between her and Lu Mengyan and started grinding, while blocking her line of sight. Although it was useless, Lu Mengyan's hairpin calligraphy was extremely elegant, and her words were written very fluently.

He could ask Grand Empress Dowager for a favor. Who wouldn't seek a good marriage on such an occasion? The main rooms of the Prince Pingyang and the Marquis of An Le were still empty.

Zhinuan looked around, all the big guys were busy writing lines, pretending to bend over to pick up the things, they quietly revealed half of the handkerchief in their sleeves under Qingning's table, she took a glance, and saw that it was indeed a medium quality peach blossom song.

Suddenly, he felt a bit unwell. How much care did this girl put into this matter? She even prepared a small copy for him.

Unfortunately, Qingning didn't have any intentions of crowning them, and indifferently gave them a "hurry up and put them away" look, then retracted his hand from the blank Xuan paper. He didn't even look at the people at the side anymore, and casually glanced at the other party.

However, she saw that the piece of paper had almost hung up. The words that were written on it were elegant and elegant, about the size of a palm. With her eyesight, she could clearly see that it was written: "Who is the savior of the mortal world? It is hard to be the same as the ninth heaven …" A little further up, in the middle of a group of young masters who were thinking hard, Xu Ran smiled and nodded to her.

I'll go..." Is it really good to cheat like this?

Qingning rubbed the center of his brows, acting as if he didn't see anything.

Why do you all look like you have a broken heart!

The little girl acted like she was wronged and put away the small paper. Seeing her like this, she felt like it was too much for her to bear.

Lu Mengyan who was at the side finished his last sentence, blew gently, causing the ink to be more or less dried, to be satisfied and placed it on the right side of the table.

Hongjin tactfully returned to his original position, and currently, there were not many who had finished writing. Lu Mengyan looked at the pure white Xuan paper on the other side of the table, and sighed: "I've long told Second Sister, if he did not know some poems and songs at the feast, he would not have been able to do it, but unfortunately you did not listen to nice people's words …" Shame in front of others.

In everyone's eyes, one of them was a girl that had been educated since a young age, while the other was a fool raised in a poor village. In this aspect, how could they be compared?

Qingning, however, gave a faint smile, folded the paper on the table into a pitch-black boat, and casually placed it in the stream.

She had memorized hundreds and thousands of Tang Shi and Song characters, so she said indifferently: "It's just some fame and fortune, why do you have to care so much."

He covered his lips and laughed softly, the Palace Mistress quickly walked down and took all the poems written on her table, such as Lu Mengyan who handed in the papers so confidently and openly, and also rushed to add on what was needed at the last moment. Not long later, the answers for the seats on both sides were placed on the Grand Empress Dowager's table.

The princes and princesses were split up and compared to each other, and the Grand Empress Dowager had left a few books to read as well. From time to time, he would exchange a few words with, who nodded as he dealt with it, but did not manage to remember a single word.

As they quickly flipped through the pages, the eyes of the little princess suddenly lit up and she began to chant in a silly manner, "Who's the one that has such good looks? It's hard to be like the Nine Heavens."

The empress asked with a smile, "Which family's young master's poem was it? It actually made the princess uneasy!"

Her pretty face seemed to have a bashful expression, but she did not forget to take it out and bring it to the Grand Empress Dowager, saying as if she was offering a treasure: "Great granny, today's question should be something worthy of being called the leader. My grandson's daughter is truly a genius, and is also worthy of being called wise!"

When these words came out, everyone laughed. Grand Empress Dowager took it and read it twice, and couldn't help but praise: "Indeed, good sentence! You truly deserve to be called the flower seeker of this generation! "

Qin Huo who was lazily sitting on the teacher's chair looked as calm as ever, as if the result was already within his expectations.

After flipping through the pile of Xuan paper, Qin Yixuan moved it to a corner and directly handed it over to the palace maid.

It was Young Marquis who had taken out a small hairpin and read out loud: "What do you mean by 'hate the east wind'? Ah … Confusion! "

When these two words reached his ears, Qingning clearly felt that Lu Mengyan, who was beside him, was looking at him with half a timid and half a resentful gaze. The latter's face was slightly unnatural as he turned his face away.

Ever since the incident where the white jade was embedded with gold, Qin Yixuan's attitude towards Lu Mengyan had plummeted and disappeared for a long time. Suddenly, being stared at by the beauty's autumn water eyes, let alone a man, she couldn't help but exclaim at the sight of him.

It had always been an era where women were encouraged to have no talent and were virtuous. The majority of the girls' reading and learning were used to communicate with their future husband, with the exception of a few similar ones, only the one sung by the Young Marquis and the other granddaughter of the prince, Jiang Xinyao, who was the most outstanding.

When the two poems were handed onto the Grand Empress Dowager jade table, one could see that the levels of each poem was about the same.

The Imperial Noble Consort Xie read out a few sentences from the Young Marquis: "With flowers as a medium, Dong Feng understands. This concubine thinks that this essay by Meng Yan is the best in the world!"

A few of her concubines echoed her sentiments, but the empress smiled gently and passed another piece to her. "I still feel that Jiang Qianjin's essay is wise and wise, his gentleness and emotion surpassing all others!"

It was not just a matter of a day or two since the Empress and Imperial Noble Consort Xie were at odds with each other. Grand Empress Dowager stacked up the two poems in a pile and laughed: "Since that's the case, we will follow the old rules!"

Hearing this, the court lady quickly called the musician to bring the zither up. The two court ladies from the source of the brook touched a lantern and lit a red candle. At any time they heard the order, they would throw it into the water.

A moment later, the musician's hand was already on the zither string, and before the chief eunuch could open his mouth to speak, Qin Yixuan, who had been silent all this while, suddenly stood up.

He was originally an eye-catching person, but now that he stood there, he became even more eye-catching.

Grand Empress Dowager was a little surprised, "Xuan'er, this is …"

Qin Yixuan took a look at the finale and said, "Great Grandmother's birthday, why don't you let Yi Xuan play a tune to keep things going!"

Aside from his extraordinary appearance, the Prince Pingyang also had a peerless Xiao voice. The girls below had long been listening attentively with their hearts in their hearts, so the Grand Empress Dowager was in a good mood. There was naturally no reason for her to refuse.

Young Marquis glanced at the still expressionless Qin Huo and leisurely waved his fan.

Qin Yixuan took two steps out of his seat, shifted his body a bit, and turned his back to the stream.

The cool breeze blew, and a mournful sound rose. The melodious melody resonated very well with the current situation. The lanterns flowed down, stumbling between the rocks in the stream. Their speed fluctuated between quick and quick.

The girls below were mesmerized, Qin Huo's hand rested on the jade table. If not for the fact that Grand Empress Dowager was in a good mood, he would have used his hand to cover his ears.

Qingning rubbed his eyes, feeling like he was about to fall asleep.

Lu Mengyan glanced at her with a gaze that seemed to say "I can't even walk on the stage with a straw bag", then turned his gaze towards the lanterns in the stream. Xiao Wen was still floating, and the girls had gradually recovered from their infatuation and started to focus on the lanterns.

Jiang Xinyao, who was just one seat away from him also had a rock hanging in her heart. Looking at the lanterns and then looking at Qin Yixuan who was playing, her face was a little nervous.

"Young miss, young miss …" "Looks like noble heir Xuan is still more interested in eldest miss …" Zhinuan whispered into her ear, Qingning opened his eyes and knocked. The flower lamp had already floated past Jiang Xinyao's seat, and then came down, but seeing that she still had an indifferent expression, the little girl continued: "This is a special case of the Peach Blossom Water Banquet.

No wonder Qin Yi ran out to cause trouble. Qingning looked at the approaching lanterns with his chin in his hand. Why were all of them cheating so openly?

Indeed, not long after, the sounds stopped abruptly. Qin Yixuan accepted the Blue Bamboo Xiao and, after receiving a few words of praise, maintained his cool high face as he stood there and looked in their direction.

Numerous gazes fell on the lanterns, sighing and feeling jealous. Lu Mengyan, who was beside her, was pinching the handkerchief, her face already showing a bashful smile.

The court lady who was closest to her stepped forward and said with a bow: "Returning to the Grand Empress Dowager, Flower Lantern landed in front of Young Miss Lu Family!"

These words were said very clearly, the Grand Empress Dowager nodded his head halfway, and Lu Mengyan had already stood up, ready to say something dignified to express her gratitude.

Jiang Xinyao, whose face was deathly white, suddenly stood up and said: "These lanterns clearly stopped in front of Lu Qingning!"

Half of Lu Mengyan's body had frozen where he was, but when he looked carefully at Hua Xi, even his expression did not look good.

The Lu Family Sisters were seated on one of the seats, but each of them was seated on the other side. Originally, Qingning did not participate in this session of writing poems, so no one was concerned about this small gap between them.

Jiang Xinyao, on the other hand, was different. She was clearly equally talented, yet she was forcibly cheated and lost, and now she had the thought that whoever wins could not be taken away by Lu Mengyan.

"Oh?" The empress looked over, her originally somewhat disappointed mood was once again covered up. She smiled and said, "Just now, why didn't I see Second Miss Lu's poem!?"

Grand Empress Dowager just remembered this and smiled as he called for the Old nanny beside him to bring people to confirm it again.

The situation just so happened that a paper boat had been stranded on a dark stone and the lanterns that were floating in the air had been blocked. They were not too far away, and were neither too far away from Qingning.

When the old man heard the report, he inadvertently glanced at Qin Huo who was on the right.

The latter said: "Since that's the case, let Lu add a poem!"

Although this person was clearly not interested in the banquet, his identity was something that no one dared to ignore.

Qingning who was sitting on the bed also laid down, he simply stood up and said sincerely: "I don't know how to compose poems!"

The mocking and disdainful gazes of the crowd all landed on her body.

, who had enjoyed the opposite effects many times, sat up straight and revealed an extremely gentle smile. With a voice that only two people could hear, he said, "If Second Sister is truly troubled, it's not like Big Sister cannot help you …"

Someone at the table burst out laughing, "The Lu Family Second Miss is such a piece of cake!"

The mosquito-like discussion gradually started to ripen. The corner of Qin Huo's mouth seemed to form an extremely shallow arc, and he did not speak further, only looking at her from afar.

However, Qin Yixuan could not help but stand up, and said with a sullen face: "Since you do not know, then what are you doing here making a fool of yourself!"

Everyone nodded and laughed softly.

Grand Empress Dowager smiled amiably at her. "You don't have to be so humble, or ordinary or elegant, just say a few words!"

No matter how she tried, she couldn't get away from it. Hundreds of pairs of eyes that were waiting to see a joke gathered on her. For a moment, the entire place was extremely quiet.

Qingning looked up, her phoenix eyes flashed with a hint of a smile that was hard to detect. She looked at Qin Yixuan who was holding the jade bamboo flute, and casually pinched it: "The spring breeze is not very meaningful, who taught the jade man to play the flute in the dark?"

Everyone was silent. Suddenly, they heard a "pu" sound.

It was Qin Muxu who spat out half the wine he drank, and said with a sigh: "This sentence is very good! "This line is marvelous!"

In the next moment, Qin Yixuan saw his handsome face turn ashen, and the green bamboo in his hand immediately break. A wave of anger rushed to his head, and he wished that he could hack that person into a thousand pieces to quell his hatred.

In the female guest area, there were still many who didn't understand and asked their older sister what she meant, but the male guest area was in an uproar. The flower seeker opposite of her was staring at her with his mouth agape, obviously in disbelief.

She was still standing there as if I didn't know anything, as if the two lines were completely accidental and she didn't know that there was a second meaning to it.

"Why don't you tell me what's so good about it?" Princess An Yi asked in confusion. A few of her concubines coughed or pretended not to hear her.

Qin Mu laughed as he cut in to explain, but Grand Empress Dowager was the first to speak: "What does Little Four think?"

"Very good!" Qin Huo was looking at the person in the distance who had uttered such brilliant words, and even his eyes could not help but contain a smile.

"This Dowager feels very good too!" This was the final word, Grand Empress Dowager's feast, Qin Yixuan was so angry that he could only forcefully endure it.

"A thousand taels of gold, a pair of coral hands, a pair of silver twin-buckled bracelets …"

At the end of the table, Qingning sat back down under everyone's gazes and sent a gift over like flowing water.

What about the big words?

When Lu Mengyan saw this, his vital energy and blood attacked his heart and the redness in his eyes shifted to a different direction.

She thanked him, and at the same time, allowed Zhinuan to keep the things he said, she took everything into her eyes, and revealed a smile that was not a smile.

Can't stand it?

No rush, the good show is yet to come!
