Chapter 602: Qiqiao Palace Banquet 5



The Feihua Order quickly reached Jiang Wanmeng.

Before she could even open her mouth, Princess Shuhuai preempted her, "Just now, Miss Jiang was disparaging Princess Anping for not knowing poetry. Now, if you don't come up with a famous line, it would be a bit unreasonable!"

Wu Yufei was also a person who would not give up even if she was right. She immediately responded, "Perhaps after today, the title of the most talented woman in the capital will belong to Miss Jiang."

Tian An also teased, "Miss Jiang, please don't hide your incompetence. This will open my eyes and let me see how much Miss Jiang knows about poetry."

Many young men and women also urged:

"Please enlighten me, Miss Jiang!"

"If you want to be called the most talented woman in the capital, your poetry writing speed is not enough!"

Jiang Wanmeng was praised so highly by everyone that she couldn't get off the stage. Not only could she not ask for help from others, she also had to write a famous quote that will be passed down through the ages.

But with her level, it's good enough that she can barely handle the Feihua Order. How can she come up with any famous lines that will be passed down through the ages?

What's more, now that everyone is urging me like this, my mind is blank. Let alone famous lines, I can't even compose a doggerel poem.

In a hurry, she picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it all, then sat down with a resentful look on her face. "Are you satisfied now?"

Over at the men's table, Xiao Hao pouted and said disdainfully, "Tsk, if you can't afford to play, then stop being so mean. Miss Jiang is just like that. She's completely uneducated herself, yet you still have the nerve to look down on others."

There were also whispers of discussions among the crowd.

"Although the Princess of Anping County may not be good at poetry, she is a great doctor and often holds free clinics to benefit the people! But I haven't heard that Miss Jiang has any special qualities!"

"Haha! How pitiful! Others can't do it, and they have their fiancés to help them out, but she can only drink the penalty wine by herself."

“Tsk tsk tsk…”

As the flying flower order continued, everyone slowly shifted their attention.

Zuo Yunshu, Gu Jinyan and others have been well-read since childhood, so the game of Feihualing is child's play for them, and they can pass it easily.

When it came to Wei Lingran, the little girl stuttered a little but managed to pass it.

However, Kary Wu had some difficulties. The Wu family had been military commanders for generations. Kary Wu and her three brothers were not good at writing poetry. She knew that her brothers were unreliable and had originally planned to drink heartily.

But how could the sisters really watch her being punished?

Although according to the rules, they can only ask for help from the young men on the opposite side.

But who doesn’t have a brother? Wei Lingran originally planned to ask her brother Wei Bo to help Wu Yufei.

Unexpectedly, An Yijie stood up first and said, "I have such a good relationship with the three Wu brothers, how can I watch the Wu sister drink a penalty?

I'm here to help Sister Wu catch this flying flower."

After that! He opened the folding fan in his hand, paced a few steps, and then raised his head with confidence and said: "The sweet-scented osmanthus leaves the evening color, and the curtain shadows fade the autumn light."

"Osmanthus flowers retain the evening color, and the curtains cast a faint autumn light." After hearing this, Wu Yufei repeated it loudly, as if she had written it herself, and then bowed to him from a distance, "Thank you, Second Brother An."

The flying flower order for the women's team quickly came to an end, and the prince started the men's team. "The eldest princess chose the flower character, so I will choose the flying character!"

After saying this, he easily composed two lines of seven-character regulated verse with the word "flying".

Since ancient times, men have always read more than women. Regardless of whether it is good or bad, the flying flower order on the men's side went very smoothly. Even the worst ones could easily come up with two lines of doggerel.

Didn’t you see that Princess Shuhuai’s unlearned brother Xiao Hao passed the test with ease?

But when it came to An Yichen, everyone was in trouble.

It was nothing. An Yichen was still lying on the table unconscious! I couldn't shake him awake! Even if he woke up, he wouldn't be able to write poetry in this state!

"Or, let's skip Master An!"

When everyone said they wanted to skip An Yichen, An Yijie was the first to object. "Why are you skipping? Don't you think there's anyone in our An family who can bully us?"

It's just a flying flower order, and my future sister-in-law can take it for my brother."

What happened to Princess Yonglin just now must have made my future sister-in-law unhappy. Now is a good opportunity for the two of them to improve their relationship. It would be a shame to let it go.

The eyes of several acquaintances lit up, and they immediately started to jeer, "That's right, Master An is engaged."

"That's right, Miss Zuo is well-known for her talent. The two lines of poetry with flowers she just wrote were very good. It will be no problem for her to write two more lines for Master An."

The male guests were constantly making a fuss, and on the female guests' side, Tian An and others were also constantly instigating Zuo Yunshu.

Unable to resist everyone's encouragement, Zuo Yunshu could only put down the round fan in his hand and stand up confidently.

After bowing to the Queen and everyone, he thought for a moment and then composed two lines of poetry with the word "fly".

Tian An noticed with his sharp eyes that his eldest cousin pretended to turn over, but actually adjusted his body and faced Zuo Yunshu, carefully leaving a slit in his eyes and squinting at the beauty.

Although An Yichen was passive, he was the first person in the male group to seek help from the female group.

He couldn't answer the call himself due to special reasons, but the next two really didn't know how to answer it.

In the past, whenever they encountered such a situation, they would simply make him drink as a punishment, but today he suddenly didn't want to drink.

Especially Wu Hongkun. The Wu and Song families finally completed the engagement process a few days ago. He is now engaged. His future wife is so well-educated. If he continues to feel aggrieved and drink a penalty drink, he would be stupid.

So he stood up and said to Song Zhiyun opposite him with an embarrassed look: "Zhiyun, you know, I'm just a rough guy, how can I understand these fancy things!

Originally, drinking as a penalty wouldn't be a big deal, but the wine today is a bit strong. If I get drunk, it would have a bad impact. Can I..."

Seeing that he had been hesitant for a long time and still hadn't gotten to the point, the impatient Xiao Hao immediately became his mouthpiece, "Miss Song, please have some pity on General Wu and help him finish a few sentences! He's been drinking the penalty wine for the Feihua Order since he was a child, and we can't stand it anymore."

"That's right, that's right, hahahaha..."

Wu Hongyi was exposed in front of his sweetheart, and he was so angry that he glared at Xiao Hao several times, wishing he could just treat him to steamed buns.

Song Zhiyun stood up with a red face, feeling both amused and distressed for Wu Hongkun.

After pondering for a while, he composed two lines of seven-character poetry and was exempted from the drinking penalty.

Seeing that his elder brother was exempted from the drinking penalty, Wu Hongyi became even more unwilling.

He secretly glanced at the female guests' seats opposite, and finally fixed his sight on Wei Lingran, who was eating snacks with her head down.

He stood up shamelessly and said, "Well, Miss Wei, considering my friendship with my brother, could you please help me this time? The wine is really strong this time."
