Ni Yueshan's face was cold and his words were sharp, not giving her any face at all.
Ni Yueshuang lowered her head in grievance, tears falling: "Yueshuang was wrong, Yueshuang will not say another word, but Yueshuang really spoke because she believed in her sister..."
Look, how easy it is to pity this weak appearance?
"Ahem, Miss, there's no need to be sad. Your sister doesn't like you speaking for her, so please stop talking. To prove that you're not just beautiful but illiterate, you'll write the opening poem!"
Ni Yueshuang paused sobbing and looked at Jing Yuchen with some surprise. Jing Yuchen actually followed Ni Yueshuang's wishes to embarrass her?
Ni Yueshuang's face was not looking good. "I, I dare not show my ugliness in front of my sister."
Yang Wanyan clutched the handkerchief in her hand, and had long been dissatisfied with Ni Yueshan.
She then spoke coolly, "Second Prince, I was unable to attend the palace banquet, but Miss Ni's deeds have spread everywhere. She can compose poetry with the snap of her fingers. How amazing is that?"
"If you let such a talented person take the lead in writing poetry, who would dare to be the second one to write poetry?"
Jing Yuchen's lips curled up mischievously, and he sat casually. He only heard him disapproving, "Madam Yang, what you said is wrong. If you stop writing poetry just because you know others are better than you, how can you improve without comparison?"
"Why not just cancel this poetry gathering? I can just doodle and write at home. Why bother attending a poetry gathering? Can't I admit that I'm not as good as others?"
This Jing Yuchen, is bullying Yang Wanyan in front of Zou Yangyao?
Is he really helping her? Ni Yueshan doesn't believe Jing Yuchen would be so kind!
Yang Wanyan clutched her handkerchief tightly. "I just feel that having the good poems at the front puts too much pressure on people. It's better to put them at the end!"
"Why are you all arguing because of me? I'm not a talented person. Even when I write poetry, it's impromptu. It doesn't mean that every poem is good. Besides, I know the literary talent of my second sister and Concubine Yang. I can't compare to them!"
Before the poems were written, many disagreements had already arisen at the poetry gathering. Everyone present had different expressions and felt that today's poetry gathering was very strange.
Ni Yueshan has become the target of public criticism, and it seems unreasonable for Ni Yueshuang and Yang Wanyan not to write poems today. Otherwise, others will think that the two are inferior to others and humiliate them to perform.
Yang Wanyan was the most dissatisfied. She knew how talented Ni Yueshan was. Now everyone was spreading rumors about Ni Yueshan, but she didn't believe it!
"Then let me write the first poem!"
Yang Wanyan took the initiative to stand up, with an arrogant and disdainful expression. She glanced at Ni Yueshan and said, "If there is anything I am not good at, Sister Ni, please be kind!"
Ni Yueshan drank the fruit wine in front of her, "Madam Yang is so talented, how can I have any right to point fingers at her? Madam Yang, please don't flatter me to death!"
Talking about poetry? She has no idea!
She can only use the poems of her ancestors to get by, so if you ask her, she can't even come up with a single comment!
Yang Wanyan looked away with disdain. "Spring is in the first question, so I'll write a poem about spring."
Yang Wanyan was extremely confident and felt that spring, summer and autumn were all simple topics and writing poems about them was not a difficult task.
The people present also felt that the title of the poem was too simple, and thought that even if they couldn't beat Ni Yueshan today, it would still be good to beat others!
Zou Yangyao looked at Ni Yueshan. She was drinking alone with great relish, not even afraid of getting drunk.
He clenched his fists. He was framed by Ni Yueshan today. How could he let Ni Yueshan go easily?
"Fourth Prince, I wonder what the prize is?"
Yang Wanyan was stunned. Zou Yangyao actually interrupted her...
"Just a few small items, just to cheer you up!"
The maid next to her lifted the red silk, and the items on the tray came into the sight of everyone present.
There are three poems in total, corresponding to three items.
The first item is a gilded hairpin, which is exquisitely crafted and reflects a bright light in the sun. Even people who don’t know much about jewelry know that this item is very expensive.
The second item is a jade pendant that is emerald green all over. It looks great, finely carved and polished. This item must be very expensive and hard to come by.
The third item is an exquisite jade flute. The tassels at the bottom are exquisite and gorgeous. Naturally, the value of the jade flute is even more difficult to estimate.
Every thing is exquisite and gorgeous, who doesn’t want it?
Zou Yangyao curled his lips and said, "I am very happy today. I would like to add another prize!"
Everyone was surprised that Zou Yangyao was going to add to the prize?
"Oh? General Zou wants to add something?"
