After all the civil and military officials gave the gift, the father-in-law next to the emperor called out for a banquet. Dozens of palace women eunuchs came up with a dish, among which several snacks were the most eye-catching.
The crowd looked at them, and whispered, "what kind of dim sum is this? Why have you never seen it before? "
"Yes, it smells delicious, but I don't know how it tastes?
Shen Jingli can't help but laugh at their comments. The modern pizza and horseshoe cake are also worth making a fuss about?
Zhan tielan is also very shocked. She looks at Shen Jingli and suddenly feels that it is not easy for mu Chen to marry this daughter-in-law.
The Empress Dowager is satisfied with the discussion, and her mouth is full of curiosity about the snacks. She specially borrows people from Shen Jingli.
In fact, Yang Ningxin's shop had sold pizzas for a long time, but at that time, they sold small pizzas with big palms. Today's pizzas are big ones, 18 inches in size, and they are full of materials.
The Empress Dowager ordered people to cut the pizza and divide it into pieces. Then she said, "you don't have to be stiff. Let's eat."
People raised their glasses to congratulate the empress dowager, and then they enjoyed the delicious food and wine happily.
I've eaten this. It's a pizza made in spring. It's a small piece before. It's delicious, but it's more delicious. " A noble girl whispered to her friend.
"I also sent my servant girls to chunmanlou to buy pastries. The snacks there are very delicious." Her friend is obviously a dim sum fan, and they talk about dim sum together.
When everyone was drinking and chatting with each other, the sound of the piano sounded, and a group of dancers in Tulle swarmed into the center and danced.
All the officials and their family members were quiet. They raised their glasses and talked in a low voice, but there was no loud noise. The noble girls straightened out their clothes and waited for their glory. They knew that the next step was the talent show. The empress would choose the right person, not for the prince as a concubine, but for a few talented men.
All the unmarried ladies are high spirited and ready to go. Everyone takes out their best side and is looking forward to becoming popular.
As a married couple, Shen Jingli naturally doesn't have to try every means like those smart girls. He only observes Zeng Waner intentionally or unintentionally, but finds that she is also full of interest and wants to shine brilliantly.
He was a little puzzled. Zeng Wan'er was already a wife of the aristocratic son. What did she do in such a talent show? Even if you are in love, you can't remarry?
"She's in high spirits." He laughed, not interested in these things.
"After all, it's time to show off, who is not eager to try." Zhan tielan glanced at those who had just shivered, but now she was full of energy. She couldn't help but sneer.
The only way for dodder to grow well is to climb a big tree.
After a few dances, the banquet entered the * * 11 poetry contest tonight. The ladies sitting below had already sharpened their swords and were ready to make a splash.
As the organizer of the queen came out and said a few official words, so that all the talented and beautiful women do not have to be constrained, play with their own will, let the father-in-law next to announce the beginning of the poetry contest.
As we all know, this poetry contest is a platform for unmarried gifted scholars and beautiful women to see each other. Both men and women certainly like talented and beautiful people.
A high platform was built outside the jade hall, and the men and women who completed the poems pasted them on the platform for people to comment on. If there are outstanding poets in the palace who have not finished their poems, some of them will be inspired by some excellent poets.
The father-in-law is reading the rules, while Zheng Meili, who is favored by her pregnancy, says with a smile: "empress, this poetry contest should be attended by all people to make it more lively."
Zheng Meili is holding a bulging stomach, with a gentle smile on her face. She can't see the meaning for anyone at all.
Empress Ning eyebrow glanced at her, Zheng Meili since pregnancy, seems to be a lot of smart, speak and do things are not as impulsive as before, occasionally can feel the needle hidden in the words.
"Does it mean that the AI family will also participate?" The Empress Dowager was a bit interested. When she was young, she was also a talented woman in the capital city. She was also attracted by the Empress Dowager at that time because of her outstanding talent. She became a princess and then a queen.
Hearing the Empress Dowager's words, Zheng Meili did not panic, but smile more gently, "the Empress Dowager is the birthday star, naturally want to open this head.
Naturally, she knew that the Empress Dowager was a famous talented woman with outstanding talent, especially her poems.
"The sad family will join in the fun." The Empress Dowager was happy and said to the queen, "empress, let's just announce it."
As a result, the original platform for gifted scholars and beauties to show their talents has become a platform for all to participate in. The Queen's eyes coldly glanced at Miss Zheng. She was just a beauty, and she dared to question her arrangement in public.
The Empress Dowager ordered her father-in-law to arrange for her. The theme of today's poetry competition is flowers. As long as there are flowers in the poems, they can be posted on Gaotai. When the Empress Dowager was young, she had the name of a talented woman. It was a good poem, but after all, she was old, and had not touched these things for many years. It was a strange but strange poem It's making a song.Zhan tielan stood beside Shen Jingli with a black face, and her eyes glared indignantly at Zheng Meiren. Her father was a big old man who fought in the battlefield all the year round. However, she was young and lost her mother. She stayed in the camp with her father all the time. At most, she knew Chinese characters, wrote poems and drew pictures. That was totally impossible.
Another dissatisfaction is Zhao Wenrui. Several generations of Bai Ding of the Zhao family seem to have been cursed. Their family has no talent in literature. What's more, their son's daughter-in-law will never be able to pick a scholar and a gift, and Zhao Wenrui is also a man who doesn't like writing and writing.
"She will come." Zhan tielan said with gnashing teeth. "Not really.
Shen Jingli was amused to see them talking about each other.
After chatting with some courtiers, Mu Chen came to Shen Jingli and asked, "you can write poetry
No." Shen Jingli answered directly and locally that he came through here. He was just a straw bag on Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting. The original owner could recognize a few words, and he could not even read the account books, let alone write poems.
Hearing his answer, Mu Chen laughed, "listen to you, is not ready to write poetry?"
I won't It's not that he doesn't do it, but he really can't. let him have such a wonderful thing as "a cucumber, cut in half, half a cucumber, and the other half a cucumber"? Or let him recite to the oak tree?
Mu Chen pulled him to sit down. He knew that if Shen Jingli had been before him, he would not, but he did not expect that Shen Jingli would not.
Maybe he was so unique that he thought he should be omnipotent. Mu Chen couldn't help laughing, "then I'll come."
It doesn't matter. The Queen's mother holds this poetry contest. It's the unmarried men and women who look at each other. We're the ones who play soy sauce. "
Soy sauce, this word is a little interesting. Mu Chen was smart and immediately understood the meaning of the word. However, it was certainly not a whim when Zheng Meili suddenly asked for it. She was afraid that she would not let them go easily. Shen Jingli naturally thought of what Mu Chen thought, but he didn't care. He cared more about the cake being stolen.
14、 Where's Weizuo? "According to their previous plan, Weizuo and Weiyou should always be at Li Qi's side to prevent his accident.
"If Wei Zuo is not there, he must have been led away." If you dare to do this kind of thing in the palace, you must have the right people around you.
Tut Tut, Shen Jingli sighed to himself. He thought that the popularity around Mu 14 was against the weather and invincible.
"I heard you were poisoned by that guy? What does he have to do with you? " There is no dispute about Wei Zuo. Shen Jingli points to Song Wei and asks in a low voice.
Shuanger of the Dewang family is following Song Wei, holding a piece of paper to discuss his new poem. "He was my former subordinate." Mu Chen's eyes flashed and drank a cup of tea. Poison the boss, own superior?
Shen Jingli has made up a big drama in his mind. The picture makes him laugh. He even comes up with the drama of loving each other and killing each other.
After a long period of love, love and kill each other is a good story. Shen Jingli thought that he should find Mr. Weng to write this story in a few days.
Mu Chen didn't know that Shen Jingli would do so much brain tonic. He even wanted to write a story based on it. If he knew, he would spit blood three feet.
The poetry contest was in full swing. Several noble girls' poems had been read out and appreciated by the university students. Shen Jingli quietly noticed that those noble girls had been called to talk to the empress.
Even though he had completely forgotten the poetry contest, he began to miss their little fat son. His ancient talent show was strictly tested by civil servants. Shen Jingli was not interested in it. He had no idea that Zeng Wan'er, accompanied by a noble girl, swaggered over and deliberately raised the volume, laughing: "Alas, poetry and prose The competition is almost over. Why didn't the princess write a poem? As the wife of general mu, don't lose face if you can't take out anything in the end Others will know that Zeng Wan'er is deliberately looking for trouble. In the capital, most people know that Zeng Wan'er was Mu Chen's fiancee. The former fiancee and the present wife were both very happy. Everyone was waiting for the good play.
Zeng Wan'er is also very talented in the capital city. It is not difficult for her to write a poem. However, people who know Shen Jingli know that Shen Jingli comes from the countryside. Maybe he doesn't know a big character. To ask him to write a poem is to make Shen Jingli ugly.
Seeing Zeng Wan'er's swaggering appearance, Shen Jingli turned his head and looked at Mu Chen, "she said I made you lose face. No Mu Chen looked at Shen Jingli fondly. Zeng Wan'er almost broke the silk scarf. She forced a smile and continued: "general Mu is really a kind man."
Looking at Zeng Wan'er looking for trouble, Mu Yu was annoyed. What did this stupid woman want to do? It's rare that the fourteenth younger brother has been living well recently. What's wrong with her?
But before he had time to bring Zeng Wan'er back, he heard Shen Jingli say, "since lady Shizi wants to hear me write poetry so much, I'll make one.
Shen Jingli tried to recall the ancient poems and articles he had recited before. He decided to borrow Lin Fu's "Xiaomei in the mountain garden" to shake down Du Xuanyan and occupy the style of Xiaoyuan. Thin shadow horizontal oblique water shallow, faint fragrance floating moon, frost birds want to go under the first peek, pink butterfly such as know together broken soul. Fortunately, there is no need for sandalwood and golden cupsWhen they heard this, they all widened their eyes. Didn't they say that general Mu's wife was an illiterate country bumpkin? But this poem has a wonderful artistic conception Some noble women secretly congratulated themselves that they did not rush forward to challenge, otherwise, they would be disgraced at this time.
Zeng Wan'er's angry face turned green. She glared at Shen Jingli and said, "how could you write such a good poem? You must be Copy less, yes, you are
"You say I plagiarize, whose do I copy?" Joking, he also read the history of this dynasty. There is no Lin Fu in this era. Who else can write this poem?
"If you're not convinced, I'll make another one?" To provoke him, he will let her look good, "when will the flying swallow return? Dip the peach blossom on the bank with water. The bridge is broken in the spring rain, and people do not cross it. The boat is holding out the willow shade. " (Xu Fu's spring tour of the lake)
Zeng Wan'er looks even worse, but there is a burst of applause.
