imperial concubine

Chapter 50
After paying respects to Qi Ruobing, Su Wan returned to her seat and sat down.The limelight of his talent is enough.If it continues, I'm afraid that if you fail to get angry, you will be burned, and you will be pushed to the forefront by Yun Jingya, and you will be a hero when you retreat.

Seeing Su Wan sitting down, the weird atmosphere in the Hundred Gardens suddenly became warm again, with people coming and going, drinking and drinking, it was very lively.

People at the table frequently stood up to toast Yun Jingya and Qi Ruobing.I don't know who started it. After toasting Yun Jingya and Qi Ruobing, everyone came to toast Su Wan.

Su Wan knew in her heart that this must have been ordered by Yun Jingya and Qi Ruobing to get herself drunk so that she could make a fool of herself.As long as I make a fool of myself, all the things just now can be written off, and the rumors in the capital tomorrow will only be that the winner of the golden hairpin lost his temper after drinking.

Seeing the endless stream of people standing up to toast, Su Wan knew that it would be impossible to continue like this.As soon as his eyes rolled, another plan appeared in his mind.So Su Wan found a gap, stood up and said, "Listen to me, everyone."

Everyone in the garden fell silent. Today, Su Wan made amazing moves, but every time after doing it, everyone felt that it should be taken for granted.Seeing Su Wan speak again at this moment, she couldn't help but keep silent and listen quietly.

Qi Ruobing, who had already returned to normal, trembled when he heard Su Wan speak again, and spilled most of the wine in the glass.Su Wan's pun just now must have seen that he deliberately targeted her at the Hundred Flowers Poetry Conference.

Tonight Su Wan gave herself a bad start at the gate of the garden, grabbed her seat when toasting, and even dared to warn herself face to face when holding the wine pot at the end.Such audacity caused Qi Ruobing to feel a deep sense of fear, but it also strengthened her mind.

Seeing that everyone in the garden was looking at her, Su Wan said with a smile: "Miss Yun invited us to a banquet today, and we should toast to Miss Yun together."

Just now Yun Jingya kept saying that it was a private banquet, so at this time Su Wan didn't call Yun Jingya a princess, but directly called her Miss Yun.Everyone could hear the meaning in Su Wan's words, it was nothing more than saying that the toast was to the princess just now, and Yun Jingya herself was toasted this time.

Hearing that Su Wan just wanted to gather the crowd to invite pets, everyone smiled and agreed.It's just toasting Yun Jingya a glass of wine, how can such a good thing be left behind?In case of being disrespectful, let Yun Jingya see it and think that she is looking down on her, what should I do?

So everyone raised their wine glasses one after another, and said to Yun Jingya who was sitting above the head seat in unison: "Miss Yun."

The brilliant lights illuminated the smile on Yun Jingya's face very clearly, the golden begonia flower swayed gently, and the slender jade fingers gently picked up the wine glass, "Thank you everyone."

The celadon wine cup was brought to his mouth, and the wide sleeves of the robe hid Yun Jingya's face in the shadows, making it difficult to see the expression.All I could see was that the hand holding the celadon wine cup was so hard that the knuckles on the knuckles were white.

At this time, the singers of the Jiaofang Division outside the hall have already withdrawn, but the sound of silk and bamboo is still ringing out.Su Wan bowed to Yun Jingya and said: "The former sages once said, I would rather eat without meat than live without bamboo, I would rather live without bamboo than sit without pleasure, I would rather sit without pleasure than feast without poetry. Miss Yun's banquet is so grand today, It’s better to have someone compose a good poem to commemorate this grand occasion. What do you think?”

From the moment when Qi Ruobing saluted at the gate of the garden, and later echoed Su Wan's intention of toasting Miss Yun, everyone in the garden had followed Su Wan's opinion in their hearts. At this moment, when they heard Su Wan put forward another idea, everyone echoed without even thinking about it. : "It's so good!"

After Su Wan asked the opinions of everyone in the garden, she turned her head to look at Yun Jingya, and asked with a smile on her face, "I don't know Miss Yun, what do you think?"

Just now, this title was normal, and there was even a bit of respect in it.But now when Su Wan said it, there was a feeling that he didn't want to ask, but had to.

Yun Jingya, who was sitting high on the top, was very reluctant, but it wasn't that this method was bad.It's just that seeing Su Wan push herself to a dead end so easily, she feels dissatisfied.But seeing that Su Wan had already received everyone's response, it was naturally not easy to refute the face of everyone in the garden together.

So Yun Jingya nodded, and then said to Su Wan: "At the Nobile Banquet that day, Ms. Su overwhelmed everyone and won the first place in one fell swoop. The reputation of talent and learning resounded throughout the capital. Today is such a grand event, how about letting Ms. Su write poems?"

Although Yun Jingya had a smile on her face, there was no smile in her eyes!As long as Su Wan agrees, no matter how good the poem is, she will definitely criticize it severely; if Su Wan refuses, Yun Jingya will snort softly, does she really think she is Miss Yun?

Sure enough, I saw Su Wan shaking her head, and the tangle of flowers on her body fluctuated with her movements, "Miss Yun, Su Wan really wants to be the person who writes poems today. It's a pity that Su Wan has little knowledge, this honor, today It’s not on my head yet.”

Seeing Su Wan's refusal, Yun Jingya smiled.This palace has long expected that you will not dare to take the initiative to take on this responsibility.But, do you think everything will be fine if you push this job out?

Yun Jingya, who was perched on top of it, lifted her chin slightly, put her jade hand gently on the table in front of her, and said with a smile on her face, "Why doesn't Miss Su want to write today's poem?" Having said that, Yun Jingya's eyes tightened Staring at Su Wan, "Could it be that you look down on me?"

His words were so cold and harsh that even the huge butter candle beside him was dimmed.Everyone in the garden looked at the two, wondering why the happy atmosphere just now suddenly changed.

Although Yun Jingya's words were extremely serious, they couldn't scare Su Wan at all.Because she had expected that Yun Jingya would be like this, she had already thought of countermeasures, "Of course not. Princess Jingya's virtue is well-known throughout the world, and her erudition is known to all women and children. How could Su Wan look down on His Highness?"

Su Wan praised Yun Jingya very humbly, and also put herself in Yun Jingya's camp, temporarily calming down Yun Jingya's anxious mood.

Seeing the sincere smile on Su Wan's face, Yun Jingya's heart softened, and her tone was much calmer, "If that's the case, then why did you shirk this matter just now? You claim to be ignorant, so is there anyone here who can do better than you?" it is good?"

Seeing that Yun Jingya stepped into her trap step by step, and the questions and answers she asked were not much different from what she had imagined before, Su Wan was extremely happy.

It's just that Su Wan didn't show it at all on her face, and her slightly bowed body was even more bent, "Your Highness is wise. Just because there is such a person in the palace, it is not my turn to be so honored."

While speaking, Su Wan shook her head, as if she was extremely sorry for this matter.But when everyone in the garden heard that Su Wan claimed to be inferior to another person, they talked a lot.You know, now that Su Wan is the candidate for the golden hairpin, how many people in this capital dare to say that they are better than Su Wan?

While everyone was discussing, I heard a crisp voice, "I think the person my sister said must be me, right?"

Everyone followed the prestige, only to see a young girl in a tunic with three inlaid golden cloud patterns and a green veil standing up.Seeing that person, everyone's discussion became louder, because this person was actually Su Wan's younger sister, Su Yue.

Seeing that Su Yue stood up as she imagined, Su Wan nodded lightly, "Exactly. My sister beat my sister and won the first place at the Hundred Flowers Poetry Festival that day. My sister was very impressed. Therefore, I just thought of the most suitable one." The candidate is my younger sister."

Speaking of Su Wan's phoenix eyes, Yingying looked at Qi Ruobing who was silent, "Madam Fang, do you think so?"

Qi Ruobing put down the wine glass in his hand and forced a smile on his face.Su Yue was the first name hand-picked by her and Yun Jingya at the Hundred Flowers Poetry Meeting, so naturally she can't admit that she is inferior to Su Wan now.

But Su Wan has been targeting herself tonight. Although it seems that there is no problem with what she said now, who knows if this is a trap that Su Wan deliberately designed for herself?

After thinking for a long time, Qi Ruobing nodded slightly.After Su Wan's repeated manipulation just now, now Qi Ruobing dare not even speak.

When everyone in the garden saw that Su Wan was so considerate of her sister, even degrading her name as the nominee, they secretly admired in their hearts, Su Wan is really a good sister, and she can do such a good job for her sister!

Seeing the prime minister's wife also nodded, Su Yue's face was filled with joy, and she stepped out from behind the case in a few steps.

From the moment she entered the garden, Su Yue was simmering with anger.After entering the garden, the eldest lady went to say hello to the familiar lady of the aristocratic family, but Su Wan was surrounded by a crowd, asking questions, but she was the only one who didn't care.

Later, when the banquet started, Su Wan repeatedly raised her head to toast to Her Highness the Princess and the Prime Minister's wife. She wanted to go too, but was held back by her mother, so she could only sit behind the desk and watch others toast.

Now it's finally his turn to show off.Thinking of this, Su Yue looked at Su Wan who was standing in the living room looking at her, and thought to herself, she is still very kind to herself, it seems that she will have to bully her less in the future.

Su Yue came to the hall in a few steps, bowed to Yun Jingya and Qi Ruobing, and then said with a smile: "Thanks to my sister's wrong love, the princess and my wife's praise, today Su Yue wrote a poem to commemorate today's grand occasion."

Seeing the smile on Su Yue's face, Su Wan chuckled in her heart. It seemed that Su Yue didn't know how much she was involved in.It's rare to be able to laugh so happily after being used as a gun by himself.

Looking at the grand occasion in the hall, Su Yue made a small poem after a while. She turned her eyes, and suddenly thought that if she just read this poem like this, it would not be very majestic.So he pretended to be clever and let it go, "Yes!"

Seeing her compose a poem so quickly, everyone in the hall couldn't help but their eyes brightened, and they all urged: "Miss Su, quickly recite it for us to taste!" You want to catch my appetite again!"

Su Yue, who was standing in the hall, was complacent when she heard everyone's compliments, while on the other side, the eldest lady sitting in the crowd was sweating profusely. , what should I do?
The eldest lady took a peek at Su Wan, feeling extremely hated in her heart. If it wasn't for this person, how could her daughter be involved in this matter?If something happened to Yue'er, I would definitely crush Su Wan to ashes!
Hearing the people in the hall getting more and more anxious, Su Yue had enough enjoyment in her heart, and then she slowly recited the little poem she just wrote: "There is less frost at the end of the year, and the grass and trees in the world know when spring comes. I feel the business in front of me It is full, and the east wind blows the water and the green is uneven."

Just after finishing singing, Su Yue closed her eyes very complacently, as if she was extremely intoxicated in her poems.Everyone in the garden looked at each other. This poem can only be regarded as a middle-class work. Could it be that Su Yue is only of this level?
Although everyone didn't believe it in their hearts, but seeing the intoxicated look on Su Yue's face, they were afraid that it was true.For a moment, everyone couldn't help being stunned in the field, no one spoke, let alone cheered.

At this moment, only a voice sounded in the hall, "This poem is quite meaningful."
