Because of her grandfather's relationship, wherever Liu Fangzhi went, she was surrounded by the ladies and girls from wealthy families, flattering her.
When had she ever heard such harsh words?
What do you mean, I'm the only one with a mouth? Are you blaming her for being too talkative?
Liu Fangzhi's face turned red, and she was so angry that she didn't know how to vent.
Si Jinxing glanced at Emperor Chongde who was sitting high on the throne, and saw that the corners of his lips trembled slightly.
Is the emperor trying to hold back his laughter?
Qi Moli had told her before that her suggestion to make bows and crossbows was a great achievement!
However, the emperor did not issue an order to reward her, but was actually protecting her.
If someone with bad intentions knew that such a stunning thing was her work.
Then she will not only be surrounded by enemies in the Longyin Society, but even all the countries in the world will covet her and cause disputes!
Therefore, she was certain that the shrewd emperor would not easily touch her, not to mention that there was the protection of Qi Moli.
Thinking of this, Si Jinxing calmly attacked the plate of braised pig's trotters.
The taste is comparable to that made by the chef at Qi Moli's Waterside Residence!
But at this moment, she suddenly felt two pairs of eyes looking towards her.
She paused holding the chopsticks. Sitting there were the brothers Qi Nanyan and Qi Nanche!
Si Jinxing raised her eyes slightly. Qi Nanyue still had a compassionate smile on his face, but Qi Nanche's face was gloomy.
Thinking back to two days ago, on the second floor of Shuixie Yaju, I really offended that violent thing!
Liu Fangzhi was still standing in the center of the hall, not knowing whether to leave or stay, and was a little at a loss for a moment.
She turned her head towards her grandfather, looking for help.
At this moment, a voice suddenly shouted from the palace: "How dare you! You evil girl, how dare you be so rude in the court?!"
Si Jinxing didn't even raise her head. She didn't need to look to know that the person scolding her was none other than her biological father, Si Junshan, General Si.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Chongde's eyes darkened slightly and he looked at Si Junshan below the stage.
This old stubborn man, it would be fine if he didn't help his own daughter, but why did he help outsiders bully his own daughter?
Seeing the emperor looking at him with displeasure, Si Junshan hurriedly bowed and said:
"This old minister failed to discipline her properly, allowing this rebellious girl to speak out in the court. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me."
After receiving the look from his little granddaughter, Liu Yangfeng was about to step forward to excuse her, but when he heard Si Junshan's words, he couldn't help but feel happy.
He has been the prime minister for many years and is always good at understanding people's hearts.
Although Si Junshan is brave and good at fighting, he is still just a warrior with a stubborn mind!
It is so stupid to hold your own daughter back in public!
As expected, the military generals are all a group of brainless and rude men!
Liu Yangfeng bowed solemnly and said:
"Your Majesty, this old minister's granddaughter simply invited Princess Anping to compose a poem to liven up the autumn banquet, but she unexpectedly provoked an innocent humiliation from the Princess, and in this important place of the imperial court!
I hope the Emperor will punish them severely to rectify the country's morals!"
Emperor Chongde glanced at Si Jinxing who was eating hard on his right, and then glanced at the Ninth Prince who was lazily holding his wine glass on his left. The couple were exactly the same, looking as if it had nothing to do with them!
But he has to clean up this mess!
He pondered for a moment, but before he could speak, he saw Princess Rui stand up, kneel down and say:
"Your Majesty, your second sister has been well-read since childhood. I was afraid of embarrassing Miss Liu, so I declined the invitation. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me."
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked. It was a well-known fact that Miss Liu had outstanding literary talent.
What's going on? Is Miss Si so self-righteous about her talent?
Si Jinxing looked at Si Jinyue over there. It had been a few days since she last saw this elder sister. Had her skills improved?
Look at what he said. It seemed that he was pleading for his sister, but in fact, he was attracting hatred to her and blowing a strong wind!
As the saying goes, the higher you fly, the harder it hurts when you fall. She just wants to see herself fall to her death!
When Si Junshan heard this, he frowned slightly. When did his second daughter become well-read?
Why did the eldest daughter say this deliberately?
For the first time, he felt somewhat dissatisfied with his eldest daughter, who had already become a princess.
After Si Jinyue finished speaking, someone responded a moment later.
"Since the Princess of Anping County is so talented, she must write this poem to broaden our horizons!"
"Yes, let me wait and see how well-read he is!"
Si Jinxing took a sip of the apricot drink slowly and said, "Since I'm well-read, I should be the last one to appear. You guys go first."
I don’t know whether this Miss Long Yin loves to show off, or whether they want her to go on stage earlier so that they can see her make a fool of herself.
At this time, young ladies from various families came forward to compose poems and praises, and Ye Wan'er was no exception.
If Liu Fangzhi is outstandingly talented, then Ye Wan'er is both talented and knowledgeable!
Her grandfather was an old tutor, and she was educated there since she was young. She was definitely not comparable to the girls of ordinary families.
Countless young talents in Jianzhou were impressed by Ye Wan'er's literary talent!
As soon as she finished reading the poem, she won applause from the whole audience, and even Emperor Chongde praised her repeatedly.
Ye Wan'er listened to everyone's praise and looked at the man with a bit of pride in her eyes.
But he was seen leaning lazily in the chair, looking at Si Jinxing opposite him with smiling eyes.
Her face darkened, and she glanced sideways at Si Jinyun beside her and nodded slightly.
All the girls wrote poems, except Si Jinxing.
"She must not be able to compose poetry, that's why she keeps making excuses!"
"It depends on how long she can drag it out."
"You even said you'd be the finale, how shameless!"
