The queen's mouth trembled and she kept wanting to refuse.
"There's really no need to do that. His Majesty might not agree. Don't make His Majesty angry. I'll end up losing more than I gain."
It seems that the queen is really at her wit's end and can even say such words.
Shen Yuerong just wanted to laugh. What a brainless girl. No idea how she became the queen.
Chi Mu wanted to say something, but the Queen just made up an excuse and left quickly with those ladies.
If you can't afford to offend them, can't you just hide away? Chi Mu is not a good person.
Shen Yuerong looked at their fleeing backs, then looked at Chi Mu with a smile on her face.
"You scared them. What if they don't want to play with me next time?"
Chi Mu raised his eyebrows and looked at Shen Yuerong, "Do you think this is fun?"
Shen Yuerong was stunned for a moment, wondering if she had said something wrong.
Then I heard Chi Mu's next words,
"Don't worry, I'll catch them next time and let you play with them. I won't interfere."
"How about we hold a party in two days, invite them over, and lock them up at home so you can catch them and play with them?"
Shen Yuerong was amused by her description and giggled softly with her hands covering her lips.
"They're not some cats or dogs, they're locked up and playing hide-and-seek."
"I'm not a child anymore. Don't scare them by playing this kind of game."
Chi Mu's slender fingers rested on her slender waist.
"In my eyes, you will always be a child, and I will satisfy you with whatever you want."
Her doting and gentle look caught the eyes of Fang Mu and Tao Hua beside her.
The two looked at each other and laughed out loud. They had never seen the prince like this before.
The poetry reading officially began. Because Jiang Sisi pretended to be unconscious, Mu Shiya became the person in charge.
Mu Shiya seems more bold and direct than Jiang Sisi, and her literary talent is slightly better than hers.
She composed an ancient poem on the spot, with a free and heroic style, showing the spirit of a female general.
Shen Yuerong sat in her seat and discussed quietly with Chi Mu.
"I think Mu Shiya is more suitable to be a talented woman than Jiang Sisi. The capital needs such a heroic and brave woman as a benchmark."
"What do you think, husband?"
It seemed as if Chi Mu could only see Shen Yuerong in his eyes, and he spoke with a smile on his face.
"As long as Rong'er thinks it's okay, then it's all okay."
Shen Yuerong chuckled and her eyes stayed on Mu Shiya who was talking eloquently on the stage.
She picked up the pen, ink, paper and inkstone beside her with her slender fingers, wrote the second couplet on the paper, then folded it up and handed it to Taohua.
"Take it up and give it to Miss Mu Shiya yourself."
Peach blossoms naturally obey.
When Mu Shiya was about to step down, he handed the paper to her and spoke with a smile.
"Hello, Miss Mu. This is what my princess handed to you. She also said that once this thing is in your hands, it is yours."
Mu Shiya took the paper and opened it with confusion.
After seeing the contents on the paper clearly, his pupils trembled violently and he suddenly raised his eyes to look at Shen Yuerong.
"Did the princess really say that?"
Taohua smiled and said, "Not only the princess but also the prince, she also said that the most talented woman in the capital should be Miss Mu."
She stopped at that. After Mu Shiya understood, she bowed in the direction of Shen Yuerong.
Shen Yuerong just smiled at her gently, and when their eyes met, they already understood each other's meaning.
It’s easier to communicate with smart people.
…
Jiang Sisi, who was resting in the room, received a piece of paper handed to her by a maid, on which was the second half of a couplet.
After reading it, she thought the second half of the couplet was very clever.
In the end, she couldn't hold back any longer. She absolutely couldn't give such a good opportunity to that bitch Mu Shiya.
So Jiang Sisi quickly headed towards the poetry meeting.
When she arrived, several scholars had volunteered to go on stage to compose the giant couplet.
However, many great scholars in the audience felt that it was just a stretch, neat but not perfect.
In particular, there was an old man with white hair and beard named Mo Zigui.
Mo Zigui is the dean of Yuelu Academy outside the city. He is well-known in the literary world and has many students all over the world. Even the current emperor and prince have received his teachings.
He looked at the couplets written by the scholars on the stage and couldn't help feeling a little regretful.
I remember that this couplet was given to him by a mysterious person.
I originally thought that all scholars in the capital were of high quality, so writing a couplet would not be a problem.
But unexpectedly, after several years, no one could match it.
It seems that he can't find anyone who can come up with this couplet today.
Just when Mo Zigui thought that there would still be no gain today, Mu Shiya came up and recited the second couplet in a clear and pleasant voice.
As soon as the second line was spoken, Mo Zigui's eyes suddenly lit up and he stood up.
Before he opened his mouth, Jiang Sisi stepped onto the stage and uttered a few words slowly with a hypocritical smile.
"I wonder where did Miss Mu get this couplet from? It's so crude that Mr. Mo was so angry that he couldn't help but stand up and scold her."
Mu Shiya glanced at Jiang Sisi and spoke without fear.
"Miss Jiang, are you feeling better now? You actually have time to come here and say these things to me. You said my answer was crude, so why don't you come up with a suitable second line so that I can see the world."
Jiang Sisi curled her lips into a smile, took out the piece of paper and read out the second line.
As soon as she read it out, Shen Yuerong couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and look at her with teasing eyes.
This is such a coincidence! How come it is the same as the second line I came up with when I was bored?
