Shen Chuwei retreated to a side hall, and while no one was around, she took out a box of watercolor brushes from the space. The rice paper was ready here, so she just asked the eunuch to get it.

I don't ask for a brilliant performance, I just ask not to embarrass Xiao Jinyan.

After all, Xiao Jinyan brought her, a foodie who knows nothing, here~

Then she ordered the eunuch to carry the desk and the paintbrush to the main hall.

Shen Chuwei then walked slowly into the hall and found that there were many people standing in the middle of the hall, some holding musical instruments, some holding brushes, but she didn't recognize any of them by looking at their faces.

She walked to the desk with doubts.

When the emperor said to start, Shen Chuwei realized that the women standing in the hall were also there to show their talents.

Is this an attempt to compare with each other?

Shen Chuwei turned her head to look at Xiao Jinyan and said, "I will try my best."

Xiao Jinyan saw Shen Chuwei looking around and thought that she must be nervous. She was so nervous that she even knocked the book over when she was reading next to him, let alone in front of his father?

Shen Chuwei retracted her gaze, picked up a pen, took off the pen cap, and began to draw.

Xiao Jinyan stared at the desk. There were no four treasures of the study. He only saw Shen Chuwei holding a pen he had never seen before. A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

No matter what Shen Chuwei is doing, we can only adapt to the situation next.

In the main hall, some were painting, some were playing the piano, some were writing, each with their own thoughts.

The emperor looked at him with a frown on his face. He could tell at a glance whether a person was good at calligraphy, painting, or playing the piano.

There are few things in the hall that are pleasing to the eye.

The rest is a real headache.

Concubine Yun glanced at Concubine Hu, and found that even the posture of holding the pen was wrong, which was extremely embarrassing.

The queen sat calmly, watching Shen Chuwei writing and drawing with a pen. She could tell at a glance that he was just drawing talismans.

Looking at Mrs. Hu and Mrs. Liu, they are even more disgusting.

Anyway, she is not the only one who is embarrassed, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

Even when competing with each other, there is a time limit.

At the shrill voice of Eunuch Li, everyone put down their pens one after another.

The young eunuchs took them one by one and presented them to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, this is the calligraphy written by Prince Cheng's concubine, Lady Hu."

The emperor glanced at the crooked words and became angry. "Is this what you wrote? It's worse than a five-year-old child."

Prince Cheng's concubine, Mrs. Hu, was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and trembled.

The queen glanced at the words on the rice paper and found that they were not as good as the words written by the prince when he was three years old. She turned her head to look at Yun Xianbai and kindly reminded him, "Yun Fei, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but don't wander around all the time when you have nothing to do. Spend more time teaching her, so that she won't lose face for the royal family in the future."

"Your Majesty the Queen is right."

How could Concubine Yun dare to say no? "Your Majesty, this is Princess Rui's painting."

The emperor raised his eyes and glanced at Princess Rui. "Princess Rui, what are you drawing?"

Princess Rui lowered her brows and nodded: "Your Majesty, it is the painting of Eight Horses."

The queen secretly glanced at the painting of eight horses. At first glance, they looked like eight mules, but upon closer inspection, they did not even look like mules.

She couldn't help laughing out loud. Are you sure it's not the Eight Idiots? The emperor's face was gloomy, and he commented in eight words, "Don't tell the difference between donkeys and horses, and the grass and trees are scattered everywhere."

Princess Rui lowered her head and dared not speak.

The Queen suppressed her laughter and said, "De Fei, you too, Princess Rui can't even tell the difference between a donkey and a horse. When you teach her calligraphy and painting, you should explain it clearly and carefully. Now, you've made a fool of yourself, haven't you?"

"The Empress is right. I will pay attention to it next time." Defei was so angry that the Empress had an excuse to scold her for nothing.

When Shen Chuwei arrived, two eunuchs took it and presented it to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, this is Shen Liangdi's painting."

Concubine Yun and Concubine De both looked over, but unfortunately they were sitting far away and couldn't see the painting. Even if they couldn't see it, they knew that Concubine Shen Liangdi's paintings were not very good, so they were just waiting for the Emperor to get angry and curse.

The queen was closest to the painting and could see the painting on the rice paper just by looking up. The colors on the painting were brilliant and completely different from any paintings she had ever seen.

Anyway, no matter what, Princess Hiei and Mrs. Hu are much better.

The emperor lowered his eyes and looked at the painting in front of him. Compared with Danqing, the colors were very rich. He looked at Shen Chuwei in confusion, "Shen Liangdi, what is this you painted?"

Shen Chu lowered her eyebrows and nodded: "Your Majesty, what I painted is a peaceful country with a peaceful people."

When Xiao Jinyan heard the words "Peace and Prosperity for the Country and the People", he showed an admiring look. He also knew that painting a peaceful and prosperous country was good.

The emperor nodded and expressed his appreciation: "This is the first time I have seen such a colorful painting. The meaning is very good. Enjoy."

When Concubine Yun and Concubine De heard about the reward, they thought they had heard it wrong. What could a country girl like Shen Chuwei paint?

The Queen was very happy to hear this. "Shen Liang Di's painting skills are very good. It has broadened my horizons. The Crown Prince has taught me well."

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

Shen Chuwei knelt down to express his gratitude: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward."

In fact, she was quite surprised, because she learned watercolor painting for fun.

When Shen Chuwei returned to her seat, before she even sat down, she heard Xiao Jinyan say, "You didn't disappoint me."

Shen Chuwei's eyebrows curved slightly, finally feeling that she had done her best to repay Xiao Jinyan for bringing her to the family dinner.

"It is because of your highness's good teaching that I am where I am today."

Although he knew it was a compliment, Xiao Jinyan still felt comfortable listening to it.

"You've really opened my eyes today. Just tell me what reward you want."

At this time, palace maids brought dishes one after another, and a crab was placed in front of Xiao Jinyan.

Shen Chuwei stared at the crab for a while, pointed at it and said to Xiao Jinyan, "Your Highness, do you want to eat that crab?"

Xiao Jinyan lowered her eyes and saw the crab in front of her. Without thinking, she picked up the crab and placed it in front of her.

"I don't like it, you just eat it." He said calmly.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Shen Chuwei picked up the crab and began to peel the shell, revealing the golden crab roe inside. She scooped a spoonful with a spoon and put it into her mouth.

Xiao Jinyan saw that she was eating happily and raised the corners of his lips slightly. She was really too easily satisfied. There were not many women like her.

Shen Chuwei realized something was wrong after taking just two bites, but she pretended not to know and swallowed the crab roe.

When she took the third bite, she suddenly vomited black blood.

Seeing this, Xiao Jinyan quickly stood up and helped Shen Chuwei up. When he looked at the black blood on the ground, he knew that he was poisoned.

He shouted, "Liu Xi, call the imperial physician quickly."

Liu Xi took the order and turned around and ran, fearing that he would run too slowly.

There was some chaos in the hall for a while.

When the emperor saw this, he asked coldly, "Prince, what's going on?"

Xiao Jinyan replied hurriedly: "Father, someone poisoned the food. This crab originally belonged to me, but I gave it to Shen Liangdi."

The meaning is very clear, someone wanted to poison the prince, but by accident it ended up harming Shen Chuwei.

After Xiao Jinyan finished speaking, he didn't wait for the imperial physician to come. He picked up Shen Chuwei and ran towards the Imperial Hospital.

Someone dared to poison the prince right under his nose. The emperor was immediately furious, "Who dares to poison His Highness? Come, you must thoroughly investigate this matter and not let anyone off the hook."

There is one more chapter, which will be updated soon.
