The next line after "White dew forms on the jade steps, soaking my silk stockings as the night deepens" is "She lowers the crystal curtain, gazing at the exquisite autumn moon."
"What? You haven't figured it out yet?" The Crown Prince of Xia Kingdom circled Mu Junxi with disdain. "You don't think you can avoid punishment just by stalling for time, do you? So, when you have free time, don't just eat, read more books."
Mu Junxi smiled and said, "The jade steps are covered with white dew, and the night is long, soaking my silk stockings. The next line is, 'I lower the crystal curtain and gaze at the autumn moon.'"
The Crown Prince of Xia was stunned and looked at Mu Junxi in disbelief.
"What's wrong, Crown Prince of Xia? Am I right?" Mu Junxi's expression relaxed for a moment.
Holy crap! That's awesome!
When did my fifth brother become so strong?
[YYDS, Fifth Brother, you're my god!]
[Slay that Yuan Dynasty crown prince.]
[They're being so picky, saying this won't do, that won't do.]
[These were carefully selected, and they've come all the way to our Yuan Kingdom to make a fool of themselves.]
"Hehehe." Mu Qianqian couldn't help but make a face at the Crown Prince of Yuan.
Mu Junxi: ...
He actually felt a little guilty about Mu Qianqian's praise.
If he hadn't heard Mu Qianqian's thoughts just now...
I'm afraid it will be really hard to get past that hurdle!
Mu Junxi scratched his head.
It's really quite embarrassing!
Consort Shu breathed a long sigh of relief.
Her tense mood finally eased a little.
Since the last time I returned from Huguo Temple.
Mu Junxi has indeed made a lot of progress compared to before.
But she never expected that he would make such great progress.
Now, he can do more than just recite a few poems; he can even answer questions fluently.
That really scared her to death.
She actually thought that, just like Mu Qianqian said, she would be humiliated in public and banished from the palace by Emperor Yuanwu.
but……
Consort Shu's gaze fell on the Empress.
Although she always knew that the Empress was wicked.
She probably lost count of how many children in the harem died because of her.
However, since they've gone so far as to bully her...
Don't blame her for whatever she does in the future.
Emperor Yuanwu's eyes also showed a hint of shock.
If he hadn't heard it with his own ears at that moment, he wouldn't have believed it even if someone else had told him.
When exactly did Mu Junxi become so outstanding?
It seems he really doesn't care enough about these princes.
However, Mu Junxi really surprised him at this moment.
Mu Junxi suddenly chuckled and walked towards the Crown Prince of Xia: "You tested me with four questions in a row, all of which were from Li Bai's poems. Does the Crown Prince of Xia not know any other poems besides Li Bai's?"
"What...what are you talking about?" The Crown Prince of Xia's eyes flickered. "Are you kidding me? How could I only know Li Bai's poems!"
"Oh?" Mu Junxi said in a drawn-out tone, "Since that's not the case, then is the Crown Prince of Xia also eager to prove his strength? Then let me test the Crown Prince of Xia."
The Crown Prince of Xia scoffed, "Go ahead and ask me any questions. I am the number one scholar in Xia. Do you think I'm afraid of a mere child like you?"
Faced with the provocation of the Crown Prince of Xia, Mu Junxi not only did not get angry, but became even more confident: "From a young age, I was a prickly head hidden in the deep grass, but now I am gradually emerging from the weeds. So let the Crown Prince of Xia finish the sentence."
A hint of panic flashed in the eyes of the Crown Prince of Xia.
He glanced helplessly at the Crown Princess, who also looked troubled and gently shook her head.
