But why does the lord insist on marrying

Chapter 713

The prizes are the Four Treasures of the Imperial Study, which are also very attractive. All the ladies who have studied poetry and calligraphy put up their sleeves one after another.

Xia Ziyu looked at Xia Ziyan, who was standing aside watching the excitement, and sarcastically said: "The shopkeeper Bai has accepted so many women's folding fans just now, so why don't you write a poem to thank him?"

Xia Ziyan just glanced at her, then looked away.

Seeing that it didn't work, Xia Ziyu said again: "A scholar of letters holds a folding fan, which makes him look chic and elegant. If he can't compose poetry, a businessman also holds a fan and imitates a gifted scholar. It's neither fish nor fowl."

A lady complained on Xia Ziyan's behalf: "Even if Mr. Bai can't compose poems, we... still love him." Like the word, in front of so many people, I was too shy to say it out.

As soon as she finished speaking, many ladies immediately echoed: "That's right, aren't businessmen allowed to carry fans? Is there such a rule in Qi State?"

Xia Ziyu didn't expect that Shopkeeper Bai would win so many supporters with his handsome face, and his words became sharper: "Shopkeeper Bai, you are a big man and want a woman to stand in for you. .”

Men are most afraid of being called a bad face by others, that will make them appear unmanly, as if they are eating soft rice.But Xia Ziyan only felt that this was a compliment. A person who can be called a handsome boy must have a handsome appearance.

Xia Ziyan pursed her lips and touched her face: "Thank you for the compliment, Princess Bai, I am very confident about my appearance, and I am indeed worthy of the word "baby face". I am not worried about being misunderstood. My restaurant is located there. , the mind and ability are there, no matter how you do it, you won’t be able to eat for free.”

Seeing such a confident Shopkeeper Bai, all the girls looked at her even more fascinated.

Xia Ziyu didn't expect Mr. Bai, a big man, to be so eloquent.However, it's right to think about it, don't businessmen have to rely on an eloquent mouth?
Heng Wang just came back from a distance and asked: "It's so lively, what are you talking about?"

Xia Ziyu pulled the corner of her mouth: "It's the owner of a restaurant, Bai, who said he also wants to write poetry."

One sentence caused everyone to stare angrily.Unexpectedly, Xia Ziyu, as a princess, would talk so nonsense and distort the facts.

However, the Prince's family and Talent Xu are taking a nap in a small wooden house not far away, and there is no big person who can talk here.They are very soft-spoken, even if they say something about King Heng, they won't believe it.

Seeing the expressions on Xia Ziyu's face, King Heng knew that Xia Ziyu might say something nonsense again, so he ignored her.

Xia Ziyu opened his mouth, but under the pressure of everyone's scornful eyes, he didn't speak any more.

A stick of incense time passed, and the prince and Xu Yifei came over.

Heng Wang and Xu Yifei read the poems collected by the servants one by one, Heng Wang pointed to one of them and said: "This one is not bad."

Xu Yifei nodded.

These poems are all similar, too ordinary, and there is nothing outstanding, let alone literary talent.But as a boudoir girl, being able to make it is already quite remarkable.How can everyone be as talented as Xia Ziyan?

Xu Yifei was just here for a formality, and he didn't have any outstanding poems anyway, since Heng Wang thought this one was good, let's go with this one.

Hengwang looked at the number in the lower right corner and said number 25. The master hurriedly compared the numbers, but bowed respectfully: "Congratulations, the lord, the number 25 is the side concubine."

One of the side concubines present was Xia Zimeng. King Heng raised his eyebrows and looked at her in surprise: "Oh? Zimeng, congratulations!"
