Let alone composing a poem in one step, she couldn't even do three steps. How could she surpass Yun Chaoge and then surpass Yun Chaoge's excellent poetry?
She had thought that composing a poem in ten steps would be enough to stump Yun Chaoge, but she didn't know when, unknowingly, their competition had become based on the rule of composing a poem in three steps, and in the end, she was forced into a desperate situation!
Three steps would have been fine, she had fallen into the trap, but Yun Chaoge actually took another step. One step would have been fine, but every poem Yun Chaoge wrote amazed the audience!
She thought that as long as Yun Chaoge couldn't do it, she wouldn't have to show up at all, and she would win without fighting...
But now, it's her turn!
Anlina felt more panic and fear than ever before. Everyone in the hall was expecting the maid to read out the topics of the three poems, but at this moment she wished that everyone in the room would die, otherwise today's competition would not count.
But, how is that possible?
"The first question is "Wind", the second question is "Winter Rain", and the third question is "High Mountain."
After the maid finished her announcement, everyone looked at Anlina!
Feeling so many eyes staring at her from the shock, Alina slowly came to her senses and slowly stood up. She had to face the gazes of these people despite her panic.
Finally, I made up my mind and wanted to take a step, but suddenly, Chaoge's voice sounded again in the hall!
"Don't move, Princess, you have to think carefully. I took the first step after the maid announced the topic and wrote a poem. If you take the first step and can't write a poem, you don't have to compete anymore. You lose!"
"Yes, we all saw it, Princess Lina, you must not take a step forward. Before you take the first step, think about how to solve the first question. Oh, and don't forget the time limit of half an incense stick!"
Yes, if she doesn’t take the first step, she won’t be considered a loser. Half an incense stick of time is more than enough!
"Why, Princess Lina, even though you didn't take any steps, you're wasting time like this. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that you can't beat me. How about this, kneel down and admit defeat, and I'll kindly reduce your punishment of running ten laps around the inner city by half, so you only need to run five laps!"
"you!"
"Don't talk nonsense. If you are really talented, you can write a poem in one step. It should take you ten steps. Why haven't you written one yet?"
Princess Lina was furious and was about to retort, but she found that her words were already pale and powerless.
The eyes of everyone present were focused on her at this moment. All she felt was ridicule. How could she have the time to think about those questions?
"Forget it. No one has time to waste with you. I'll give you one last chance. I'll count to ten. If you still can't come up with three songs in a row, you really lose. I've given you enough time. After all, you've been in this long time. Let alone three songs, if it were me, I would have come up with ten."
How could Chaoge give Princess Lina, who was unwilling to take the first step, a chance to really think?
She just had to keep talking, disrupting her thoughts and upsetting her heart!
Even if Anlina had come prepared, Chaoge would make her forget everything because of panic!
"One, two, three, four, five, six..."
When she counted to six, Princess Lina finally moved forward. In the silent flower hall, Chaoge's voice kept echoing in her ears, and her mind was in a mess!
Yes, that was the poem she had completed in the palace before. Wasn’t it the one with the topic her mother had given?
Thinking of this, Princess Lina hurriedly tried to recall the new poems she had prepared before. For now, she had to write three poems in a row. She didn't want to be embarrassed by being urged by this damn woman.
"Winter Rain", the cold wind blows another winter, still... the rain by the window reminds me of spring, I send the winter rain to the border, it is for the people and for the heavens."
"Pah pah pah pah pah"!
Princess Lina finally finished a song after stumbling over it, and suddenly Princess An's applause rang out impatiently!
"Good poem, good poem!"
The whole place was silent, but Princess An's voice and her excitement seemed particularly abrupt.
Upon seeing this, Mrs. Zhang suddenly raised her hand and started clapping along with Princess An. She even couldn't help but join Princess An in shouting "Good poem".
Seeing this, Chaoge couldn't help but raise his hand and gave a round of applause. Then everyone at the scene seemed to react and applause rang out one after another in the flower hall.
"What about the second song? Princess, please continue?"
Chaoge looked at Anlina with smiling eyes. Seeing the applause from the crowd and Chaoge's smiling face, Princess Lina clenched her hands hidden in her sleeves into fists again!
She even recited the poem so haltingly, and you asked her to recite the second one?
"Yes, Princess Lina, there are two more. Can you compose them?"
Princess An spoke indifferently, with no smile in her eyes!
Looking at Chaoge laughing like that, she shook her head helplessly in her heart. She really didn't know whether Chaoge was confused or stupid.
The poem that Anlina just wrote was clearly a poem expressing lovesickness. Anyone who lives in the capital probably knows that this poem was written for her son!
As her son's legal wife, she was so foolish as to applaud this woman. She was really impressed by her!
"The second song is "Wind", the autumn wind caresses the vast sky, the clouds... the clouds ride on the blue sky, the green mountains sit on the clouds, and the thunder and rain sprinkle the earth!"
"Good poem! Good poem!"
After much stumbling, another song finally came to an end. Princess An's loud voice once again rang out in the flower hall along with her applause, followed by another round of applause.
At this moment, Lan Xiang's clear voice suddenly rang out, "The competition time is up, half an incense stick has burned out, today's competition, Yun Chaoge, Miss Yun wins!"
"What!"
Upon hearing Lanxiang's words, Princess An, who was clapping enthusiastically, suddenly changed her expression and stood up from her chair. The smug smile on her face was no longer there, and her face was full of anger!
But Anlina's body suddenly went limp, and she fell straight to the ground. Her personal maid was so frightened that she ran over screaming and supported her with concern!
"You are going too far! You are bullying my princess like this, Yun Chaoge, just wait, my prince will not let you go!"
"Tsk tsk tsk, this concubine is still here, when will it be your turn as a lowly servant to threaten Miss Yun?"
After saying this, Concubine Qing looked directly at Lanxiang and said, "Slap me in the face!"
"yes!"
