As everyone watched the show, Ni Yueshan's face was clearly reflected in the eyes of the empress dowager.
The Queen Mother saw the horrific burns all over Ni Yueshan's face. Although she was surprised, she did not show it at all.
She only looked at Ni Yueshan with regret: "The daughter of the prime minister?"
"Exactly."
Ni Yueshan responded in a proper manner without any embarrassment.
"Are you going to use poetry to entertain me today?" The Queen Mother looked at Ni Yueshan with kindness, as if she really liked a bold woman like Ni Yueshan.
"I didn't want to." Ni Yueshan said lightly, with some grievance on her face. The imperial concubine's eyes fell on Ni Yueshan from a distance, like a threat.
Ni Yueshan ignored her and just looked at the Queen Mother, saying helplessly, "But I heard from the Imperial Noble Consort and the Princess that presenting poetry would cheer the Queen Mother up, so I bit the bullet and came to present poetry."
"I just want to get a good start and make myself known to the ladies present. I want them to know who I am and think of me when they have poetry gatherings in the future. I want to join in the fun!"
So she didn't come here to show off, and it wasn't her own choice.
Although it was not stated explicitly, smart people would understand it immediately. The Imperial Concubine was surprised that Ni Yueshan was much bolder than she had imagined!
With so many eyes on her, she still dared to say so much...
"If you write a good poem today, I believe all the ladies present here will remember you. In the future, you will definitely be a part of poetry gatherings."
But if the poetry is not good, it will be embarrassing for yourself.
"I've already asked her to think of a poem since we came here from Chengqian Palace. Don't worry, Grandmother, she'll definitely be able to do it well!"
Although Jing Yu'e seemed to trust Ni Yueshan's talent and was making guarantees for her, Ni Yueshan was not a fool. She was saying that she had given her plenty of time to think!
"Didn't the Imperial Concubine just say that she could compose a poem in the blink of an eye? Now that we've given her so much time..."
Jing Chengzhi, who was sitting in the men's seat, had a smile on his face as if he was looking forward to the show. His voice was calm, but these words made it much more difficult for Ni Yueshan!
"Empress Dowager." Ni Gaofei stood up and said helplessly to the Empress Dowager, "Although my daughter has read a few books, she can't compose poetry in the blink of an eye. This must be a misunderstanding!"
"She wants to have some fun today, but today is your birthday banquet, the Queen Mother, and everyone wants to have some fun." As he spoke, his eyes fell on Ni Yueshan, "Don't waste everyone's time, go back and sit down!"
Ni Yueshan did not go to see Ni Gaofei. She knew that Ni Gaofei was a good father, but she would never accept things passively.
"Father, you are absolutely right. I have wasted too much time. Why don't you, Your Majesty, give me a poem topic now? I will finish writing it and then return to my seat immediately!"
Ni Gaofei was surprised by Ni Yueshan's stubborn temper. Didn't he know what Ni Yueshan was capable of? Did she really want to embarrass herself at the banquet?
Ni Gaofei looked serious and a little embarrassed.
The Queen Mother re-examined Ni Yueshan and found him to be quite courageous!
"Well, I see, autumn is coming, the chrysanthemums will all be in bloom, and the other flowers will soon wither. Can you write a poem about this?"
Ni Yueshan is in trouble?
It is indeed difficult. She doesn't like reciting, but there is nothing she can do!
Forced to take extreme measures!
"When autumn arrives on September 8th, my flower will bloom and all other flowers will die. The fragrance will permeate the capital, and the whole city will be covered with golden armor."
Finger snap? No, not just finger snap, even faster...
Everyone present: “…”
Everyone wanted to eat something, drink something, and then enjoy Ni Yueshan's anxious expression as he scratched his head and cheeks, but this...
If the birthday poem was spoken so quickly, it must have been thought of long ago, so it doesn't count.
But how could the Queen Mother come up with questions so quickly while looking at the scenery in the garden?
Did the Imperial Concubine not want Ni Yueshan to embarrass herself? She wanted her to be in the spotlight?
Amidst the sighing gazes of the crowd, Ni Yueshan said to the Queen Mother, "I have finished writing my poem. I will not take up any more of your time. I will leave now."
The Imperial Concubine wanted to embarrass her?
Fortunately, this question is simple, otherwise how could she solve it? No, otherwise how could she borrow it?
Ni Yueshan obediently returned to his seat before anyone else could react. Wasn't this really too fast?
The Empress Dowager was a little stunned, and Jing Yu'e and the Imperial Noble Consort's faces also darkened.
Zou Yangyao's eyes followed Ni Yueshan closely. How could it be possible? Ni Yueshan couldn't even recite poetry...
She has such a stupid head, she must have seen a ghost!
Jing Yuchen looked at Ni Yueshan, drank the wine in the cup again, and blurted out a poem without thinking. Was it a poetic talent, or was it a poem he had written a long time ago?
But no matter what, he felt refreshed when he saw Jing Yu'e and the Imperial Noble Concubine's faces darken.
Jing Chengzhi looked gloomy. He stood up and said, "Since Miss Ni is so good at writing poetry, I would like to compete with her. Would you be so kind as to do me the honor?"
Jing Chengzhi's eyes were full of smiles, his face was as gentle as jade, his temperament was elegant and handsome, and he looked like a handsome and noble man. However, Ni Yueshan did not have a good impression of him when she first met him.
"At the beginning, I said that I hope that because of today's incident, you will think of me whenever there is a poetry gathering in the future. However, today is the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, so I can't waste too much time. If the Fourth Prince really wants to learn from me, please hold a poetry gathering!"
She definitely won't go then!
Jing Chengzhi didn't want to miss this opportunity. He opened his mouth to say something else when Jing Yuchen beside him spoke up, "Miss Ni's poetic talent is something I admire greatly. I'm planning to hold a poetry gathering in the next few days and would like to invite you, Miss Ni. Please come and be there."
