Chapter 37 Deliberately making things difficult
After savoring it carefully, everyone in the hall was surprised to find that this little poem that was obtained in a hurry was actually a rare and excellent work. They were immediately convinced by Su Yuezhi's talent, and then applauded endlessly.

Looking at the crowd who were cheering, Su Wan shook her head, being kept in the dark, she was still so elated. The people sitting in the garden today are not celebrities and talented women in Beijing, they are clearly just a bunch of waste vases who are full and have nothing to do.

After everyone's applause subsided, Yun Jingya, who was wearing a scarlet woven golden mountain and sea gown, glanced around the hall, and then said with a smile: "From my point of view, the number one talented woman at today's Hundred Flowers Poetry Festival is not Su Yue." The girl is none other than me. Are you still dissatisfied?"

Hearing Yun Jingya's words, Su Wan was startled.If it is really just that the eldest lady wants to win some fame for Su Yue, it is enough now.After all, the Hundred Flowers Poetry Fair cannot be compared with the Nobile Banquet, whether it is in terms of specifications or scale, it is far behind it.

But if it was planned before, then Yun Jingya should reward Su Yue by now.But she suddenly said something like this, could it be that what Da Furen and the others are aiming for is not the false name of the number one talented woman, but something else?
At this moment, a crisp voice sounded, "At today's Hundred Flowers Poetry Contest, Miss Su Yue is quick-witted, and I really admire it. However, I think there is still one person who can stand shoulder to shoulder with Miss Su Yue, and that person is On top of the poetry meeting."

Su Wan followed the voice and saw that it was the daughter of Li Wengong's family. She was standing in the hall and talking eloquently.And just as he finished speaking, his gaze shifted to Su Wan's face. Su Wan was startled, and shrank back her body.

Yun Jingya, who was at the top of the seat, heard the words of Li Wengong's family, and asked in pretended surprise: "I don't know who Miss Li is talking about? There is such a capable person at the Hundred Flowers Poetry Conference, why don't you see her come out and show her hand?"

The daughter of Duke Li Wen's family turned around and said to Yun Jingya: "Reporting to Her Majesty, this person is not only extremely talented, but also has an indissoluble bond with Her Majesty."

Hearing this time, Su Wan already knew who the daughter of Duke Li Wen's family was talking about, and she knew in her heart why Da Furen didn't stop her from participating in the Hundred Flowers Poetry Club. It turned out that the Poetry Club had already set a trap for herself.No matter whether you come or not, you can't avoid this trap.

If you don't come by yourself, the eldest lady can boast for Su Yue. In the eyes of outsiders, the eldest lady is Su Wan's mother, and she will naturally be flat; if Su Wan comes, the problems that have been prepared will be difficult for Su Wan .In any case, Su Wan can only become a stepping stone for Su Yue to become famous today.

This is the grand lady's plan. At the Hundred Flowers Poetry Fair, the celebrities and talented women in Beijing will watch themselves being trampled by Su Yue.

Thinking of this, Su Wan sneered. Originally, I had no insight into your plan, so I didn't dare to act rashly.I never thought that your plan would be so childish, today I will let you see how majestic the person who was praised by the whole country of the Chen Dynasty was!
At this time, Yun Jingya's voice sounded, "Could it be that the person Miss Li is talking about is Miss Su Wansu who won the gold hairpin at the gold hairpin banquet that day?"

The daughter of Duke Li Wen's family smiled slightly, "Princess Mingjian, it is Miss Su Wansu who won the golden hairpin at the golden hairpin banquet."

After being reminded by the daughter of Li Wengong's family, everyone remembered that Su Wan, who won the golden hairpin at the golden hairpin banquet that day, was also the young lady of the mighty Marquis Mansion, and Su Yue's older sister.It seems that today, everyone is going to watch a good show of sisters fighting each other.

At this time, Qi Ruobing, who was sitting next to Yun Jingya, looked down at the eldest lady, "Madam Su, did Miss Su come here today?"

The eldest lady stood up and replied, "Go back to Madam, Yue'er and Wan'er are here." Then she turned and said to Su Wan who was behind her: "Wan'er, why don't you hurry up and meet Her Royal Highness and Mrs. Fang?"

Everyone looked behind the eldest lady together, wanting to see what the gold hairpin winner looked like.Only a very few caring people in the garden can figure out from the preface of the eldest lady's words that Su Yue is more important than Su Wan in the eldest lady's heart.

Seeing that the matter was imminent, Su Wan, who had already made up his mind, stood up, and saluted Yun Jingya and Qi Ruobing gracefully, "Su Wan has met Her Royal Highness, Mrs. Fang." Then she turned around and saluted, "Su Wan I have seen all the ladies."

Yun Jingya, who was sitting at the top, looked at Su Wan who was dressed in white, and asked with a smile: "Since Miss Su is here, why didn't you take out your poem and let everyone appreciate it? Did you look down on this palace's reward, or Seeing Su Yue on stage, did you get scared?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone stared at Su Wan with burning eyes.Everyone thought about it carefully, and they did not hear any poems written by Su Wan just now.For such a grand event, Su Wan didn't write a single poem, either she looked down on the princess and Mrs. Fang, or she couldn't compose poems.

Hearing the murderous intent contained in Yun Jingya's words, Su Wanyi was not afraid. She was wearing a white snow robe lightly, and the golden flowers were faintly visible in the eyes of everyone, "Your Highness's words are wrong. It's not that Su Wan looks down on Her Highness's reward, but also It's not that I'm afraid of my sister. It's just that when I see her on stage, I don't want to hurt my sister's feelings, let alone hurt my sister's heart, so I don't write poems."

Just a few words changed Su Wan from a sinner who looked down on the princess to a good sister who loved her sister.It even turned Li Wengong's daughter and Yun Jingya, who forced Su Wan to play, into villains who provoked the relationship between the sisters.

Yun Jingya was choked up when she heard Su Wan's words, and she obviously recognized the hidden meaning in Su Wan's words.However, Yun Jingya returned to normal with just one breath, "Miss Su Wan's words are wrong. The Hundred Flowers Festival is just to discuss the way of poetry. If Su Yue can improve from the discussion with you, wouldn't it be better than you to retreat?" Is it a hundred times stronger without a fight?"

Su Wan frowned slightly when she heard Yun Jingya's words, but she didn't realize that Yun Jingya's mouth skills were also quite powerful.Not only did he insinuate his hypocrisy, but he also implied that if he really cared about the sisterhood, Su Yue would have appeared at the Nobile Banquet that day.

Seeing the lofty Yun Jingya, Su Wan's light red lips parted slightly, "His Royal Highness is too self-effacing. Today's grand event gathers all kinds of talented women in the capital, and there is even Her Royal Highness and Mrs. Fang sitting in the town. Such a grand event, people in Beijing will definitely be happy." Word of mouth."

Everyone in the hall heard Su Wan's words and compared the two, they found that the Nobile Banquet was no different from today's Hundred Flowers Poetry Meeting. Among them, it was changed to the back garden of Fangfu.

Seeing the gradually enlightened expressions of everyone in the hall, Yun Jingya was anxious, but smiled lightly on her face, "Since it's such a grand event, doesn't it mean that Ms. Su treats the talented women present as nothing, and doesn't even bother to discuss with me?"

In a word, Yun Jingya pulled everyone who had gradually turned towards Su Wan back to her side.Su Wan didn't compose poems on such occasions, of course, it might be due to the friendship between sisters.But if you do this, how can you save other people's face?

Seeing the weird looks gradually appearing in the eyes of everyone in the hall, Su Wan sighed lightly. She was extremely careful, but she still accidentally fell into the trap set by the eldest lady.But even if he fell into the trap, he would have to die!

Thinking of this, Su Wan smiled lightly and said to the people in the hall: "Just now Su Wan didn't write a poem, just because she didn't want to hurt her sister's love. Now that Her Royal Highness asks Su Wan to write a poem, then Su Wan will write a poem , please be honest, "

As she spoke, Su Wan slowly read out a little poem, "Peach blossoms bloom first in the warm spring, and no one will see the beauty. It's a pity that the strong wind blows behind, and the bright red patches are covered with moss."

As soon as a song is released, the audience is silent.Then there was a burst of applause, followed by a full house of applause!

Looking at the people in the hall applauding continuously, Yun Jingya was not surprised.Before Su Wan wrote the poem, she had already prepared.After all, she was the candidate to win the golden hairpin at the golden hairpin banquet. If she didn't have such skills, Yun Jingya would wonder if she had chosen the wrong person.

After a while, the maddened crowd came to their senses. They quietly glanced at Yun Jingya who was sitting on the head seat, and then they all fell silent.

When Yun Jingya saw that everyone was quiet, she smiled and said to Su Wan: "Miss Su Wan really wrote a good poem. I am afraid of hurting my sister's love, it is really a heartfelt statement. However, this poem is so beautiful. I don't know if Miss Su Wan got it by accident. Or do you do it yourself?"

The implication is to accuse Su Wan of writing this poem by a famous master, and then memorize it by himself to deceive everyone.

Su Wan stood in the hall, the smile on her face was as unpredictable as the golden flowers on her body, "If Your Royal Highness does not believe that this poem was written by Su Wan, please ask the princess to choose something to write the poem."

Seeing Su Wan in the hall who was neither humble nor overbearing, Yun Jingya couldn't help but love talent.It's a pity that this person is not on his side, so he can only be destroyed at the Hundred Flowers Poetry Fair.

After being silent for a while, Yun Jingya finally said: "In this case, please ask Miss Su Wan to compose a poem on the topic of heaven."

Hearing Yun Jingya's words, there was an uproar in the hall.Everyone here, regardless of their level, has a very solid foundation in poetry.So I also know that in poetry, the most difficult poem to make is this day!

It seems that the subject matter is huge, but when it comes to doing it, I don't know how to start.I don't even know what gorgeous words to use to describe one ten-thousandth of the nature of heaven.So when they heard that Su Wan's topic was Tian's Poetry Contest, there was an uproar in the hall.

Su Wan, who was standing in the hall, was also stunned for a moment. She never expected that Yun Jingya would be so shameless, asking such a difficult question for herself to answer.

At this moment, Qi Ruobing had signaled his servants to light the incense.

The red incense head turned into inch by inch of white ash in the air, and then fell into the incense burner.All the people in the hall held their breaths, looking at the incense in the incense burner, and at Su Wan who was frowning and thinking hard.

The letter incense burned half of it quickly, but Su Wan's frown was still unfurled.

Looking at the letter incense that was gradually burning out, Su Yue's eyes showed joy. A few days ago, you caused me to copy "The Commandments of Women" a hundred times. Today is the time for you to pay the price!

The eldest lady looked at Su Wan who was frowning, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. From now on, people in Beijing only know Su Yue!
Soon, the incense will burn out, but Su Wan's brows are still furrowed at this moment.
