"Yes, why is the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion so excited? I was just telling the truth." Wan Qingyou sighed, feeling that she had suffered great injustice, and began to sob softly.
Ni Yueshan watched coldly. He was such a person who cried easily. It would be such a pity if he didn't become an actor!
"Don't you like introducing me to others? I hope you can be clear when you introduce me. Otherwise, how will others know why I was divorced, who is jealous, who is insidious, and who is the victim?"
Ni Yueshan had no intention of backing down. Wanqing clenched her fists and looked at Ni Yueshan angrily. Just as she was about to retort, the eldest princess Jing Yu'e, who was sitting on the high seat, spoke up:
"Well, this matter has already spread throughout the capital, and everyone here probably knows something or other. Why not, let's begin the poetry gathering?"
Jing Yu'e looked at the servant beside her. The servant stepped forward and opened the scroll in his hand. Four powerful and powerful characters appeared in front of everyone -
"The garden is full of beautiful scenery."
What is written above is the theme of the poetry meeting, and the talent of the poets will be compared based on the four words above.
All the women present were dressed up beautifully in order to attract the attention of the eldest princess. Who knows, they might become the fourth prince's woman in the future!
So, everyone wants to perform well.
"Princess, I am Wanqing, the daughter of the Minister of Personnel, and I would like to write a poem."
"allow."
Ni Yueshan thought that she must have come here just to make up the numbers, and it turned out to be true. She felt sleepy just listening to these beautiful girls reciting poems.
Because she was wearing a veil, Ni Yueshan didn't cover it and started yawning. She didn't understand a word of the poem.
Ni Yueshan picked up the wine glass in front of him, thinking about taking another sip, it tasted really good.
"The Minister of Personnel is really good at educating his daughter. She can compose poetry so quickly and has such great talent. It's great."
After receiving the compliment, Wanqing said happily, "I feel a little ashamed. Speaking of educating daughters, many people here know that the Prime Minister's family has twin daughters, one beautiful and the other talented. Miss Ni is here today too, so why not have her write a poem?"
Wanqing started arguing with her because of what happened at the beginning, and Ni Yueshan looked at her like an idiot.
At today's banquet, she was just there to make up the numbers, and she had no grudges against her. What was the point of asking her to perform now? There was no chance that she would become the Fourth Prince's wife.
"I think you did an excellent job just now, Miss Wanqing. I can't compare to you, so I won't embarrass myself any more."
Wanqing's eyes flashed with contempt. "Miss Ni, all the women here can read, have learned needlework, practiced dancing, and can even compose poetry. I didn't expect Miss Ni to be so afraid to show off. Could it be that she's truly uneducated?"
The others present also laughed softly, obviously making fun of her.
"What Miss Wanqing said does make some sense. Since you are here, why not write a poem? Today is just for the fun, so it doesn't matter whether it is good or bad." Jing Yu'e said with a smile, as if to comfort her, but it was also forcing her to write a poem.
The ladies present today are all from official families. If they make a fool of themselves today, it will be equivalent to making the whole capital city laugh along with them.
So if you don't want to be laughed at by the entire capital, it's best not to make a fool of yourself today.
While everyone was discussing privately, the maid at the banquet brought sweet soup. Ni Yueshan raised a disdainful smile at the corner of his lips and said, "Writing a poem?"
That’s great!
Just pick any of the three hundred Tang poems and make all the monsters and ghosts present shut up.
She was about to stand up when the maidservant cried out, "Ah, I'm sorry, I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong."
The bowl of sweet soup spilled on Ni Yueshan without warning. Ni Yueshan took a deep breath and looked at her in surprise.
"I deserve to die. I know I was wrong..."
As a little girl, seeing her kneeling and begging for mercy because of a small mistake was very pitiful. Although Ni Yueshan was depressed, he finally didn't bother to care: "Get up."
The eldest princess scolded him harshly: "You are so rash in your actions. Why don't you go down and receive your punishment?"
The maid knelt on the ground and retreated submissively.
Ni Yueshan glanced at the dirty clothes and felt depressed. Jing Yu'e looked at the maid beside her and said, "Go, take Miss Ni to change her clothes."
Ni Yueshan originally wanted to use this excuse to leave, but she felt that these people were too arrogant and were waiting to laugh at her. If she really left, others would think she was running away. It would be better for her to change her clothes and come back to let them slap her in the face.
"Then I'll go change my clothes first."
The maid from the Princess's Mansion led the way and warned, "Miss Ni, the Princess's Mansion is similar to other courtyards in many places and is quite large. Miss Ni, please don't run around. Go into your room and take off your clothes first. I'll go get you something that fits."
"Thank you."
Ni Yueshan looked around. It was indeed a magnificent palace given by the emperor to the princess.
The pavilions and towers are tall and majestic, with carved beams and painted rafters, and pebbles are paved among a sea of flowers. When you walk past, the fragrance is overwhelming and the beauty is breathtaking.
The room was opened, and the maid respectfully said, "Miss Ni, please wait a moment."
Ni Yueshan nodded and the maid left.
Ni Yueshan looked around the room. Outside was the living room, and inside was the bedroom. There was a bed and furniture, but there were no daily necessities in the room. The dressing table was empty. No one lived here, and the room was empty.
Ni Yueshan was still looking around when he heard the door outside seemed to be locked?
Ni Yueshan was confused and walked towards the door: "Hey, there's someone in here!"
She reached out to pull the door, and as expected, the door was locked from the outside and could not be opened at all.
A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. Why would someone lock the door for no reason? Was it a coincidence or a conspiracy?
"Is there anyone there?"
She stretched out her foot to kick the door, and smoke blew in from the side. Ni Yueshan inhaled the smoke and kicked the door hard.
But she found that her body felt weak, numb and hot.
Why is this happening?
She shook her head, supported herself on the door with her hands, and her head began to feel swollen and dizzy. Was there something wrong with the food?
She vaguely saw a figure. It turned out that there was another person in the room, but she didn't notice it. Then she fainted.
Half an hour later, the maid who had taken Ni Yueshan away from the banquet hurried to Jing Yu'e and reported in a low voice. Jing Yu'e waved her hand, and the maid stepped aside and lowered her head.
Jing Yu'e smiled and said, "This princess has something to do and needs to leave for a while. My dear ladies, please don't let this spoil our fun."
"If the princess has something to do, why not go and do it first."
The young ladies in the boudoir all looked very well-educated and well-mannered. After Jing Yu'e left, some people at the banquet started to talk suspiciously:
"You should have seen it clearly, right? The person who just came back was the maid who sent Miss Ni away. She came back alone and even called the princess away. Do you think something happened to Miss Ni?"
