After time-traveling, the farming female supporting role turned over with cannon fodder and salted f

Chapter 51
Xiao Ning felt as if something dirty had been smeared all over his body, making him extremely sick.

She returned to her seat and sat down, raised her eyes slightly to look at Mr. Li, and found that he had already returned to his own seat and bowed his head to drink tea.

Master Li looked at her with evil intentions, she was about to ask for a reward, but he interrupted, is this his own illusion?

Xiao Ning doesn't remember any grievances between himself and the people from the Imperial College.

"I suddenly dreamed of plum blossoms falling to the ground last night. I don't know if it's a sign. Why don't you ladies write a poem about plum blossoms?" the emperor said softly.

All the daughters were stunned for a while, but they all nodded in agreement.

The daughter of the official family has been reading poetry since she was a child, knowing that she was going to compete in poetry, she naturally didn't think about it on the spot, she must have already thought about it at home.

But the emperor suddenly clicked on a theme, and those daughters who were planning to cheat were left empty-handed, and could only rack their brains to compose poems on the spot.

The time for a stick of incense is not long, and the lit incense is as thin as a hair, and it will burn out in less than a cup of tea.

Perhaps because he didn't want the emperor to wait for a long time, he deliberately chose this flammable incense.

Xiao Ning pretended to think for a moment, thought about the modern poems about plum, and considered which one to write.

It is not good to be too gorgeous and grand, and it will not end well if it is too revealing.Those who are too simple and unpretentious are not good, there are many talented people among these daughters, if they lose, the inscription of the Song Family Restaurant will be ruined.

After thinking for a long time, Xiao Ning saw that the incense was about to burn out, so he wrote a poem.

She didn't believe that those rich literary talents were comparable to the great poets who have been passed down through the ages.

After writing the last word, a wisp of incense ash also happened to fall.

"Take it!" The eunuch whispered coldly, and several maids collected the poems one by one and sent them to Master Li of the Imperial College.

There are only 30 to [-] official daughters present here. For Master Jijiu of Guozijian, it didn't take much time to read this paper.

"Report to the emperor, I think these three poems are the best." Master Li took out three pieces of rice paper from them and presented them to the eunuch next to him.

Xiao Ning took a quick glance, but saw that the three capitals were seven-character verses, which were different from the five-character quatrains he wrote.She turned her eyes to look at Mr. Li, but saw that the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, hiding a faint smile.

"Massive and majestic yet gentle, it is indeed a masterpiece." The emperor nodded with his beard, but there was not much joy in his eyes, "Where are Xiao Qianjin's poems, please submit them for me to see."

As soon as these words came out, the smile on the corner of Mr. Li's mouth froze instantly.In an instant, his eyes flickered, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.

"What's the matter?" Seeing his sudden change of expression, the emperor couldn't help asking.

"Xiao Qianjin just did a very good pairing, I still want to read her poems, come and find them for me." The eunuch found Xiao Ning's poems in the rice paper and presented them to the imperial court.

Xiao Ning looked at the terrified Master Li, and couldn't help but sneered in his heart, his eyes were clear.

"There are several branches of plums in the corner, and Ling Han blooms them alone. I know it's not snow, so there is a faint fragrance." The emperor looked at the clear and meaningful characters, and said eloquently.

Suddenly, he turned his gaze to Master Li.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the tent seemed to freeze, and the daughters were also as stiff as a stone.

Xiao Ning's poem is simple yet elegant, with vivid characters, vividly depicting the winter plum in the snow.

The poems they wrote are definitely not as good as this, but Master Li didn't choose Xiao Ning's birthday as a masterpiece, this is the crime of deceiving the saints.

"The emperor forgives the crime, it must be that this daughter has many poems, and the humble minister missed it." Master Li felt the emperor's sharp gaze, and his legs were weak and he knelt down and kowtowed.

The emperor looked at him coldly, and said in a deep voice, "There are only dozens of daughters here, and there are hundreds of students from the Imperial College. If you can even miss this paper?"

Master Li was trembling, and beads of sweat had already dripped to the ground.

"My Majesty, Mr. Li has served in the Imperial Academy for many years, and my father has some admiration for him. This man is not a sage, and he must have been careless. A good minister personally selected by the emperor will not deliberately Drop the poems of the folk girls."

Just when the atmosphere was depressed, Xiao Ning's voice brought a hint of joy.

The anger in the emperor's eyes subsided slightly.

The person chosen by the emperor himself, if he deliberately uses his power for personal gain to do such small tricks, it will also slap him in the face.

Xiao Ning's words gave the emperor a step down, and saved the emperor from disposing of a courtier for her, making her offend people for nothing.

"Master Li must be sharing the emperor's worries and working hard for the Imperial College, and he hastily rushed all the way so he is in a hurry. These poems are just a play of the daughter's family, so you don't have to blame yourself for it." Xiao Ning knelt in front of that Mr. Li said with a smile.

A few words instantly eased the relationship between the monarch and his subjects.

Master Li swallowed his saliva, and then he straightened up and said: "Last night, I worked hard all night for the affairs of the Imperial College. Maybe I was a little dazed. My negligence almost blinded the emperor's eyes. I hope the emperor will forgive me."

The emperor frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Aiqing worked so hard for the imperial court, what is the crime? I think the poems of the daughter of the Xiao family are the best, what does Aiqing think?"

"Of course it is." Master Li replied submissively.

Xiao Ning breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes brightened slightly.

Now that the emperor has spoken, the winner of this competition is naturally her.

Just as she was asking for a reward, Lord Li interrupted her again.

"Your Majesty, I have heard the sound of horseshoes. Maybe all the young masters will come. Let's go out and see who is the leader. This year's young masters have worked hard and will definitely return with a full load!" Master Li wiped away. The cold sweat on his forehead disappeared, and the fear in his eyes disappeared.

The sound of horseshoes became louder and louder, and there was also the vague chatter and laughter of the young masters.

"It really is back!" The emperor put down the rice paper with the poems in his hand, and walked out of the big tent. Compared with the poems of his daughter's house, the emperor naturally pays more attention to the results of hunting.

Xiao Ning naturally did not dare to call the emperor, this reward can only be asked for next time.

She turned to look at Mr. Li who was standing beside him, only to see that he was breathing a sigh of relief, raising his sleeves to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Lord Li, the emperor has already left, why don't you follow him?" Xiao Ning walked up to him, carefully scrutinizing his mouse-like eyes.

"A civil servant can't stand the heat. I advise Xiao Qianjin not to go out, just drink tea here, anyway, the fourth prince will not return home after hunting." Lord Li straightened his back, and he no longer had the panic and fear just now.

Xiao Ning sneered, without the emperor in front of him, this guy's fox tail was indeed exposed.He interrupted his request for reward from the emperor twice, which was clearly intentional.

"The emperor's golden words say that the victor will be rewarded. As the saying goes, this matter is only three times. I don't know how many times Mr. Li can stop it." She snorted coldly, turned around and walked away.

The rest of the Qianjin ladies have already followed the emperor out, and they can't wait to see the heroic appearance of those young masters.

The emperor sat on the jade shovel, and eight people carried the sedan chair, walking like the wind.

Xiao Ning and other daughters also followed.

"Report to the emperor, the vice capital commander is already counting the prey of the sons of each family." The eunuch went to ask about the situation and quickly replied that he could not get out of the window.

The emperor sat on a high seat, with sword eyebrows flying, glanced at those scattered people, and suddenly frowned: "Young master of Li Jue's family, and the fourth prince?"

The emperor's eyesight was astonishing, Xiao Ning looked up, but he couldn't see the two of them.

"It's not yet time, maybe the two young masters are still on their way back?" The eunuch was also not sure, and looked up at the sky.
