Chapter 241 Why Is This Man Here

Chapter 241 Why Is This Man Here
Four white horse-drawn carriages of the same color, eunuchs and grooms wearing special clothes, the sedan chair is wide, even if Shen Qiqi lies down and sleeps inside, it is not a problem, the cushions made of soft satin are so comfortable to lean on, the curtains are made of pure The curtain is woven with golden threads, and golden tassels hang from the four corners outside the sedan chair, and the tassels are tied into wishful and auspicious knots.

"Yue Ling, what did you insert for me? It's a bit heavy."

Shen Qiqi was sitting in the car, stretching out her head to look around. There were palace guards leading the way in front, and palace ladies leading the way with incense burners in the back. Behind the sedan chair, there were two rows of eunuchs holding whisks. Along the way, there were many onlookers on the street. Among the common people, Yue Ling saw more and more people watching, and pulled Shen Qiqi back who was lying on the window.

"Princess, don't look at it. There are many people outside. It's not good to be seen by others."

"What kind of headgear did you wear for me? It's a bit heavy." Shen Qiqi retracted into the sedan chair and accidentally bumped against the window. She quickly supported the headgear. She likes simple and elegant dresses, and her usual decorations are simple and elegant. Lord, the tiara Xiao Jijing sent today is gorgeous and bright, she couldn't ignore Xiao Jijing's kindness and let Yue Ling choose it, and she didn't see which set of jewelry Yue Ling chose.

"The princess is wearing a blue brocade with dark flowers today, so I chose an orchid-shaped headdress made of blue gemstones. Is the gemstone too heavy? I have prepared another set of headwear, which is also blue, but It's Xiyanhua's, princess, do you want to change it?" Yue Ling knew that today's occasion was very important, so she carried Shen Qiqi's palace attire and headgear with her so that she could change at any time.

Shen Qiqi watched Yue Ling open the box, and inside the box lay layers of intertwined petals carved with transparent sapphires. The brilliance, the light interlaced in the gemstones, makes the sunset flower lifelike, generous and noble.

Shen Qiqi didn't need to ask Yueling, she also knew that the orchid-shaped headdress on her head was also exquisite and noble, she just stretched out her hand to weigh the Xiyan flower, it looked similar to the one on her head, she shook her head: "It's almost the same , It’s the same weight if you change it, that’s all, how long will it be?”

"It's coming soon, the place of the poetry meeting is not far from the palace." Before Yue Ling finished speaking, there was a commotion outside, hearing the sound, she had already arrived at the place of the poetry meeting, Shen Qiqi was curious and wanted to go out, seeing Seeing Yueling's nervous expression, he could only pretend to be dignified and sit in the sedan chair. When Yueling got off the car first and stood up, everyone held their breath and lowered their heads. It was a noisy scene just now, and it immediately became quiet. When everyone saw the sedan chair of the eldest princess, they knelt down to welcome the eldest princess.

The little eunuch at the back came over and put the footsteps in a hurry, Yue Ling opened the curtain after a while, stretched out her wrist, lowered her head, Shen Qiqi's hand pressed on the back of Yue Ling's hand, and slowly got off the footsteps, she Seeing everyone kneeling down on the ground, she suddenly felt dizzy. She didn't want to see others kneeling on her.

Kneeling at the head is the organizer of the Poetry Association, the wife of the deceased Right Prime Minister Fan Dacheng, the first-rank wife Mei Shi who was conferred by the former emperor. Shen Qiqi knew the identity of Mrs. Fan from Yueling a long time ago. She walked up to Madam Fan and helped Madam Fan herself: "Madam, you don't have to be polite, Madam is polite."

Before Shen Qiqi's hand was stretched out, a court lady walked out from Shen Qiqi's side and supported Mrs. Fan. Mrs. Fan was only 45 years old. Because Fan Dacheng committed suicide when the late emperor passed away, Xiao Jijing sealed the Mei family as a Mrs. Yipin Gaoming receives a monthly salary. Mrs. Fan's reputation is a representative of virtuousness and kindness in the capital. Although she has no power, anything she steps forward will succeed.

She just relied on her own reputation to organize the biennial poetry meeting. Although it is only the third year, it is already famous all over the Tianyue Dynasty. Even the neighboring countries know that Tianyue Dynasty has a fascinating poetry meeting. .

"Get up, you don't need to kneel. Today is a poetry meeting, a grand event in the capital. The emperor entrusted me to come and inspect it. I hope that everyone's interest will not be disturbed. You follow the rules, and I will just sit and watch That's it."

Shen Qiqi saw that apart from Mrs. Fan being lifted up by herself, the others were still kneeling, she gently parted her vermilion lips, and said in a delicate voice.

Everyone got up in twos and threes. Mrs. Fan had already ordered someone to prepare a private seat for Shen Qiqi, and she personally took Shen Qiqi to the private seat on the second floor to sit down. And tea, she looked around, the place where they are is the best place to watch poetry.

The poetry meeting was held in the lobby on the first floor of Yayuan, the largest in the capital. This is the most high-end teahouse in the capital. Miss Qianjin who came to participate in the poetry meeting today all received invitations, and those who came to watch were also personally selected by Mrs. Fan Yes, they were all elegant people, Shen Qiqi looked around, and sure enough, she saw her acquaintance, Su Qinxue.

Su Qinxue wore red clothes today. She was the top poet of the last poetry meeting, and today she announced the opening of the poetry meeting. With makeup painted by the most expensive rouge, delicate lips, and a weak expression, she is sitting behind a nanmu desk in the center of the hall, ready to announce the start at any time.

"I don't know what the Eldest Princess can teach you?" Mrs. Fan saw Shen Qiqi drinking some fragrant tea copiously. She also knew that Shen Qiqi wanted to see the poetry meeting start as soon as possible, so she did a good job of etiquette.

"This palace is just a false name to supervise. Madam Fan is the one to preside over everything." Shen Qiqi responded freely and courteously. Madam Fan couldn't help but look sideways. The farce of the poetry meeting was almost about to break out. In order to welcome the arrival of the eldest princess today, Mrs. Fan did a lot of work.

"Then I'll go over and ask Ms. Su to announce the beginning of the poetry meeting." Seeing that Shen Qiqi hadn't spoken, Madam Fan stood up and told Su Qinxue. Su Qinxue heard Madam Fan's whisper and looked up at The private seat on the second floor where Shen Qiqi was, hated so much in her heart that Xiao Huanyan could actually sit on it, she was just sitting here announcing the start of the poetry meeting, and when a new poet appeared, she would lose all her brilliance, At that time, Su Chengwen would be even more indifferent to her.

Shen Qiqi deliberately gave her a look of contempt. Su Qinxue was just the poet who was about to be replaced, and she was the high and mighty eldest princess. Her honor and status would not fade with time.

"Princess, it's started!" Yue Ling clenched her fists excitedly and nervously, watching the poem below begin.

Shen Qiqi watched with great interest as the young ladies below began to compete for poetry. The rules were very simple, that is, the two girls who were selected for the duel would draw lots to determine a word in the poem, and then the poem they said must contain this word, which is the ancient The flying flower order.

Soon someone will be defeated, and the lady who lost will be invited out, and the final winner will have to fight Su Qinxue, who was the poet last time, to win the final victory.

Shen Qiqi was eating snacks, waiting for the ladies to do their best. It seemed that they were fighting poetry, but they were actually showing their best side so that people would come to propose marriage.

"Is it a poetry meeting or a performance meeting?"

Shen Qiqi kept shaking her head, just as she was about to continue eating snacks, she caught sight of a person out of the corner of her eye.

"Why is this person here?"
