Feng Rushi happened to be on the street when he heard about this. Although he was currently under Cheng Ruxue's command, he had not seen any opportunity to realize his ambitions, and he couldn't help feeling depressed.
When he heard that the emperor would also attend the poetry meeting, he suddenly felt a glimmer of hope. Perhaps this was his last chance.

"To tell you the truth, I also want to attend the poetry reading, but unfortunately the tickets are sold out."
