Chapter 760
Eunuch Jing, who was standing next to him, knew how to read his face, and immediately followed Mr. Zhou to congratulate the empress.

"The two of you hurriedly check the names. After being told by you, I can't wait to get to know talented men and women."

The queen no longer concealed her impatience, and gave the order directly with a smile on her face.

After receiving the queen's order, the two hurriedly moved aside to conduct a careful check, and soon after the results were released, Eunuch Jing would roll the names.

Not only the empress, Mr. Zhou and his companions behind the screen, but also everyone else in the hall were all focused and calm, waiting for the announcement of the result.

Eunuch Jing respectfully presented the paper with the names of the top ten names on it, and the empress took a look, her phoenix eyes immediately filled with smiles.

Sure enough, No.1 was the daughter of General Hu Wei, and the son of General Long Teng followed closely behind. The three brothers Shen Weixuan, Shen Weibai, and Shen Weilan won the third, fourth and fifth places.Only two of the top ten are last year's winners, and the rest are newcomers.

Such a result satisfied her. If there is a little regret, Li Yunhui, the niece of General Huwei who performed well last year, did not continue her glory.

She looked at Mr. Zhou and saw that he looked excited, not at all as mature and prudent as before, as if he wanted to see the winner sooner.The queen didn't delay any longer, and read out the names of the top ten winners in sequence.

Those who read their names will naturally stand up and stand under the steps, so that everyone can see their true faces.

After Yunxia, ​​who won the first place, stood up, there were cheers immediately, and Ju Lian's voice was the loudest.

The members of the judging panel had already come out from behind the screen, and after seeing Yunxia's demeanor, they all praised her.Firstly, they thought she was a beautiful, pretty and lovely girl; secondly, they learned that she was the eldest daughter of General Huwei, and the few of them admired General Li who was stationed at the border and powerful in Xirong, so they also admired Yunxia even more. look.

The most important thing is Yunxia's great talent.Several people lamented that Yunxia is young, but she has such a clear view of the world, and her poems are full of wisdom.

The empress and the members of the judging team had the same ideas, so the rewards were very generous. In addition to giving Yunxia the four treasures of the best study, she also gave a white jade lotus root.This white jade lotus root is shiny and white, without any blemishes.One section is a round lotus root section, and the other section is slightly shorter. The end face is cut open, and it looks like a lotus root slice with seven holes, which is lifelike.

The lines of the lotus root joints are natural and the workmanship is fine. The whole jade lotus root is like a piece of real lotus root that was accidentally broken after being fished out of the lotus pond.Even the chain tied on the top of the lotus festival is made of small jade beads.

Yunxia fell in love with this white jade lotus root at first sight. She liked lotus and lotus root at first, and Zhou Dunyi could recite "Ai Lian Shuo" by heart, so this prize given to her by the queen won her heart.

And the queen helped her wear the white jade lotus root herself.

The audience is full of envy, this is a great honor.

Eunuch Jing, who was standing beside the queen, said to Yunxia in a low voice: "This treasure is in the heart of the empress, Miss Yunxia is blessed."

"Just talk too much." The Queen scolded Eunuch Jing and said to Yun Xia, "You deserve it for your good poems."

Trying to use one sentence to help Yunxia resolve her tension, even though Yunxia is not nervous at the moment.But the queen gave herself such a fine treasure, she was still very grateful.And through this contact, she still has a good impression of the queen.

Not to mention anything else, just look at this poetry competition held by the queen, it is very fair and just.So he sincerely said some decent words of thanks, which made the empress smile all over her face, and she was more happy with Yunxia.

After helping Yunxia put it on, she gently rearranged Yunxia's loose hair, looked back, and said with satisfaction: "Mingyu matches a beautiful woman, very good!"

Yun Hui, who was standing below, saw the great honor Yun Xia enjoyed, and was so jealous that she became mad.If she had gotten it just now, she would be wearing the white jade lotus root on her body right now, and she would also smile and accept the worship of others.

The more you think about it, the more you get angry, an evil fire rises from the bottom of your heart, it's all because of that damned maid, just wait, when I find Concubine Hui, I will definitely make you die.

Concubine Hui, who was in her bedroom, was so angry that she smashed a vase when she heard Yan Zhi's reply.

Rouge, who was kneeling on the ground, was trembling with fright. She was stopped by the fourth princess just now. She was afraid of being held accountable by the queen and the fourth princess, so she managed to sneak out, and wanted to report to Concubine Hui in time, and then waited for her to give her instructions to deal with it. Minglu.

Concubine Hui was worrying about her father's matter, and the emperor hadn't come to her palace these few days, so she was in a state of anxiety.Rouge asked about this matter, it was like adding insult to injury, could Concubine Hui not be furious?

At first I thought it was the fourth princess who made the move, and I didn't think I made a big mistake, but when I saw Concubine Hui so angry, Rouge was terrified, and the three souls lost two souls directly, and just kowtowed to Concubine Hui.

Ruixiang has always been on good terms with Yanzhi, and she also knew the reason behind Concubine Hui's anger, so she helped Yanzhi say a few good words.

"Your Majesty, Rouge has no choice but to do this. You know that the fourth princess has a temper. She thinks about it as soon as she thinks about it. With the protection of the middle palace, she has always been lawless."

Rouge raised her tearful eyes, looked at Ruixiang gratefully, and nodded desperately.Then he walked to Concubine Hui on his knees, and didn't care about the broken tiles being scratched on his legs and bleeding, just moved over like that, and continued to kowtow, shouting in his mouth: "Your Majesty, please calm down, Your Majesty, please calm down!" , Empress, calm down!"

Concubine Hui looked at her, she also brought this girl from Xirong, she has always been loyal to her, and she is quite effective in handling things.Now the situation is critical at the father's side, and I am employing someone, the matter of Yun Hui's girl is also a trivial matter, if you don't win the prize, you won't get it, and I will give Rouge a favor.

So he cleared his throat and said with a stern face: "I'll spare you this time, and help me be smarter next time!"

Yan Zhi suddenly heard it, but she didn't react, she just raised her head in a daze.Ruixiang hurriedly reminded her that the empress is magnanimous and forgives you, so don't hurry to thank her.Only then did Yan Zhi wake up like a dream, and she kowtowed in a flurry of thanks again.

"Clean up this place for me quickly." Concubine Hui said with a frown.

After being relieved, Yan Zhi hurriedly picked up the fragments of the vase. The wound on her leg just now stained her skirt with blood stains. I am already thankful, who cares about these injuries.

She pocketed the pieces she picked up in front of her skirt, and then quickly wiped off the blood on the ground with her sleeves, and the rouge retreated.
