Wangmen Xianfei

Chapter 86

Yan Hanyan smiled, looked at all the women, and said: "The ones who can participate in the Hundred Flowers Banquet this time are all intelligent and noble women from the Eastern Song Dynasty. This Hundred Flowers Banquet is not only for you to gather together for fun, but also for your fame. Let people know the talents and virtues of my Eastern Song Dynasty women, and let you meet your own husbands."

Hearing this, most of the women blushed.What Yan Hanyan said was the truth, why did they show their talents to let the world know?The first is for vanity, the second is for favor, and the third is for the admiration and love of powerful men, so that she can find a better husband, or make the person she wants to love.

"Cuihe." Yan Hanyan called lightly.

"Yes." The old maid who had left was returning with a small wooden bucket.Standing beside Yan Hanyan, he respectfully said, "Empress, everything is ready."

"En." Yan Hanyan nodded, smiled and explained to a group of doubtful women: "The subject of this Hundred Flowers Banquet is to write poems. Now there are a hundred questions in this wooden barrel, and you will draw them. All you have to do is to write poems. It takes a stick of incense to make a poem based on the topics you have drawn. Do you understand?"

"Understood." The girls replied.

Yan Hanyan smiled again: "This poem will be handed over to the princes and emperors to watch. The princes will choose the winner of this Hundred Flowers Banquet. You should work harder."

"Yes!" This time, the girls suddenly became more energetic and their eyes sparkled. It was obvious that most of these noble girls were interested in the princes.

Yan Hanyan nodded, and said to the old maid: "Cuihe, let them draw questions."

The old court lady Cui He nodded and walked towards the women with a wooden bucket.

The ladies drew questions one by one, and then looked at their own questions in surprise, frowning or sighing.The old palace maid Cui He intentionally let all the noble ladies finish their smoking, and finally walked in front of Mu Qingli, and sighed softly: "Crown Princess, Ninth Princess, why are you two standing so sideways? The servant girl is old and dim, and finally found you .”

Jun Feiyu said simply: "It doesn't matter, it's a lottery anyway." As she spoke, she stretched out her hand to draw inside, and took one casually.

Cui He turned to Mu Qingli again, smiled and said, "Crown Princess, there is one last picture left, do you see it?"

Mu Qingli glanced at her, smiled indifferently, "They're all the same." He reached out and took out the last one.

Cui He smiled, and then slowly retreated.

Yan Hanyan ordered someone to light the incense, and said, "After the questions are distributed, the incense has been lit, so you can start doing the questions."

The ladies ordered their maidservants to get the brushes, ink and rice paper, and then began to think about the topics they had drawn.

Jun Feiyu unwrapped the rice paper at the side, saw the title inside, and muttered softly in embarrassment: "Using a poem to describe the beauty of a woman who is overwhelmed by the country? This... this." Turning to look at Mu Qingli beside her , raised his head and asked: "Sister Qingli, what is your topic?"

Mu Qingli looked at the rice paper in his hand and smiled.Either she didn't see Cui He's secret methods, or she didn't know what kind of problem the queen would put her.Opening the rice paper, the words inside immediately came into my eyes: with the title of praising peony, lotus, chrysanthemum, and plum, the four flowers must be included.

This kind of flower is recognized as the flower of the four seasons in the world. This question is difficult and difficult. It is difficult to write a good book, and it is even more difficult to write a touching one.

Jun Feiyu raised her head and also saw this topic in her eyes, and couldn't help exclaiming: "Ah, it's more difficult than mine, sister Qingli, we are really unlucky."

"Unlucky? I think I'm lucky." Mu Qingli squinted and smiled.It is difficult for others to see it, but it is easy for her.Other topics may need to be thought about carefully, but the flowers of the four seasons?Living in Shushan all the year round, most of the poems and books she read are about landscapes, and the flowers of the four seasons are the ancient poets' favorite to write?
"En?" Jun Feiyu couldn't help being stunned after hearing her words.

Han Chun and Han Chun couldn't help but glance at her, the chrysanthemum poem was unexpectedly good at first, but now the flower of the four seasons, the young lady seems to be very confident?
"Warm autumn, cold spring, rubbing ink with cloth and paper." Mu Qingli said with a smile.

"Yes." Nuan Qiu and Nuan Chun replied naturally, looking at each other, they put rice paper on the desk for her, Han Chun put rice paper for her, Nuan Qiu rubbed the ink slowly, with gentle and graceful movements.

Mu Qingli sat on the side with a Langhao brush in her hand, with a confident and relaxed look on her brows, obviously very confident.

Jun Feiyu couldn't help approaching and whispering in surprise: "Sister Qingli, have you already figured it out? How could it be so fast, it is the flower of the four seasons!"

Mu Qingli smiled, pointed to his own head, blinked and said with a smile: "It just happens to be the right number."

Alright?Jun Feiyu didn't understand in her heart, but she could also see a bit of self-confidence in these words.Opening his eyes, more yearning and ignorance could not help but emerge inside.She said that Sister Qingli is not only powerful, but also very talented, so it must be Sister Qingli who won this time.

Mu Qingli turned his head and asked Nuan Qiu again: "Tell me, the history of the Eastern Song Dynasty and the world are well known. Is there anyone who particularly likes chrysanthemums or plum blossoms?"

Although Nuan Qiu didn't read as much poetry and books as Lian Xia, she naturally remembered some historical records, especially the world-famous ones, even if she didn't read them.After thinking about it for a while, he replied: "Yes, the most famous one is that a prince named Li Yiyang loved chrysanthemums the most in the Xia Kingdom History Records. Xia Guohuang made the chrysanthemum as the national flower. There are several people who love plum blossoms in the historical records of their country, one is Empress Xiao, one is the scholar Mu Yisan, and the other is the general Leng Junhan."

Mu Qingli nodded, then leaned back on the chair with a faint smile and said nothing.

Her posture and appearance were also seen by everyone, Yan Hanyan frowned slightly, and dissatisfaction flashed in her eyes.Looking sideways at the old court lady Cui He, her lips moved slightly: "How is it?"

Cui He followed her gaze to look at Mu Qingli, but also didn't understand her contented look. "There is no mistake, what she got is indeed the flower of the four seasons."

Yan Hanyan tapped her chin lightly, squinting her eyes slightly, a cold light flashed in them.Recently, I saw Mu Qingli getting more and more unhappy, and it became easier to find Luo Wuxia's shadow from her body.At the beginning, Luo Wuxia knew everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and he was a rare genius who practiced ancient swordsmanship. In addition, the reputation and appearance of the number one beauty in the Eastern Song Dynasty made many men in the world crazy and obsessed with her.Although her daughter is a lawless master, this charm is gradually revealed, which is no different from Luo Wuxia back then.
