Chapter 25 Ask yourself less why and ask others more why
At this time, the dancer's performance ended, and Xue Wanning walked to the middle of the lotus viewing platform with a smile on her face, holding a brocade box in her hand.
"Today, I have been blessed by His Highness the Ninth Prince to give me a bloodstone seal made by him as a prize. How can we have flowers and wine without poetry?
Wan Ning is just throwing out a brick to attract jade, so she will write a poem first, and then appreciate the excellent sentences from everyone present. The Taifu and my father will judge, and the winner will get this seal! ”
[Boring, it’s time to write poetry. Flowers and wine must have poetry, right? If there are flowers and wine, it is flower wine. Isn’t the purpose of drinking flower wine to sleep with beauties? Is it for scientific research?
You threw a brick just now, and now you are throwing a brick again. So your specialty is throwing bricks? Who do you want to hit this time...?】
People who heard: Pfft…
Master Su's old face turned red, and he stared at Su Qianqian who was sitting upright and looking cautious: Where did you learn such vulgar words!
Su Xinxin rarely smiled. She didn't know why she could hear her sister's voice, but her lively sister made her feel relieved and happy.
Qin Hanzhang: You know so much!
Prince: It is true that the daughter of Grand Tutor Su is a person who will make a big splash if she does not make any noise!
However, Old Lady Qin and several of her daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law nodded secretly: Qianqian is right, why not just eat a meal and enjoy the melon? Why are you so busy? Who in a military family would have the patience to listen to this?
Everyone is looking forward to the system and Qianqian eating melons.
[Let them do their thing, and we continue to watch the show. You won’t be asked to write poetry anyway. 】
The system comforted Su Qianqian.
[Today, the Second Prince Jing specially ordered a set of robes to attract Miss Xue's attention. He was in a hurry, and the beak of the goshawk on the sleeve was supposed to be a hook, but because he was in a hurry, it became straight, and looked like two chickens! 】
King Jing suddenly raised his head and looked at his sleeves in horror. Then he quietly raised his hands and folded his arms to press down on the two bird beaks.
King Jing: Who is this? How did he know? Will I be punished by God for competing with the prince for a woman?
Qin Family: Let’s see how long you can maintain this posture…
Prince: Second brother, why are you doing this? Look at me...
[The prince had dressed specially today. His robe was heavily scented with incense, and he choked and kept coughing in the carriage. He also asked the eunuch to fan him all the way. The eunuch could not even lift his arms now.
In order to have a good start, she also wore red panties embroidered with intertwining branches! 】
Prince: Am I the only one who can hear it? Should I consider silencing him?
The Qin family members looked at the unspeakable parts of the prince carefully: What is the effect of such concealment?
King Jing: Hahaha, it turns out I am not alone. Brother Prince, thank you for your company along the way!
Su Runhe: Fortunately, I am still young...
Prime Minister Xue: Is it polite for you to covet someone else's precious daughter like this?
Old Madam Qin laughed until she cried, her daughters-in-law also laughed heartily, and Qin Yuzhuo and several little girls covered their mouths and laughed secretly.
The young man who was composing a poem: Mother, I want to go home. The poem I wrote was actually laughed at by the woman from a military general’s family!
Su Xinxin couldn't help laughing. Prince Zhu Min glanced at her indifferently, and Su Xinxin quickly stopped smiling.
Lu Zhiqing didn't know what the Qin family was laughing at. Her eyes fell on the crown prince and princes not far away. One of the princes attracted her attention deeply.
But the prince's eyes never left Xue Wanning. Xue Wanning's every frown and smile attracted his attention.
"Although the Wuning Marquis's Mansion is a military family, I heard that the Sixth Young Master is extremely talented and has won the first prize in poetry and prose in the Imperial Academy. Please don't hesitate to write."
Xue Wanning suddenly turned around and called out his name, but her eyes moved over Qin Hanzhang.
[This is to cast a wide net, store more food, and slowly claim the throne. I just don’t know how many people will have their brains taken away…]
Qin Hanjue: I didn't. My brain is always there. As long as I'm not tortured to death, no woman or poisonous snake can get close to me!
Qin Hanjue, who was named, had no choice but to smile modestly and say:
"Miss Xue, you are too kind. Actually, when it comes to poetry, you may not know that the young master of Su Taifu's house is the one who can write every word with pearls, and his simplicity and innocence reveal his profoundness."
[Are you talking about Runhe?] 】Su Qianqian pricked up her ears.
Mrs. Du: Laoliu did a great job this time. Ask for a reward when you go back.
When Su Runhe heard Qin Hanjue mention the young master, he didn't know he was talking about him. He thought he was talking about his two brothers. It was not until Qin Hanjue said, "My dear brother Runhe, please give me some ink for everyone here to appreciate." that he looked up in surprise.
Zhang forced a kind smile and said, "My son has a soft personality and is not good at speaking in public. I am sorry to make you laugh, Sixth Young Master.
Runhe, how did your mother teach you? If you can't do it, apologize to the elders present. Your father won't blame you. ”
This statement was very comprehensive, except for completely embarrassing Su Runhe.
Su Runhe looked at his two sisters whom he hadn't seen for a long time. He could see the expectation in their eyes. He quietly clenched his fists and made up his mind that even if he went back to be punished, he would not let his sisters down.
"Thank you for your consideration, mother. I am not talented enough, but I dare not disappoint you, brother Hanjue, for your praise. I will show you my ugliness here."
The little boy stood straight, glanced at the lotus pond beside him, pondered for a moment, then walked to the table next to him and picked up his brush to write.
After finishing a poem, the maids came over to fan the ink dry, put it on a tray and brought it to Tutor Su and Prime Minister Xue, and then showed it to Xue Wanning.
Xue Wanning recited softly and praised repeatedly. Master Su said nothing, but looked at his son with a rare look of approval.
Prime Minister Xue said, "I really don't want to admit that my son is not as good as Su Taifu's son. This poem is indeed rare, and it is only natural that he should win first place."
Xue Wanning was also generous. She personally handed the seal in the brocade box to Su Runhe. Su Runhe's eyes lit up and he sat down and looked at his sisters quietly.
[Good job, you are so tough. If anyone dares to offend you, just hit her face until it becomes a shoe insole. In the future, ask yourself less why and ask others more why! 】
Su Runhe heard his second sister's thoughts, but he didn't dare to show any sign and kept them in mind secretly.
Qin Family: Fortunately, we woke up in time...
Master Su: It turns out that your cowardice was all a lie!
Su Qianqian was still pretending to be a coward, not knowing that her disguise had been shattered.
The next step is to actually appreciate the lotus, which is also free time for those who want to contact them.
In addition to the lotus viewing platform in the middle of the Xue family's lotus garden, there are many spacious pavilions along the winding water corridors that extend in all directions. Those who cannot enter the lotus viewing platform have seats in the nearby pavilions.
Only by going to different places to admire the lotus can those who want to get close to it have the opportunity to gather together. Moreover, outside the lotus garden, there are many places for guests to rest, where they can talk and do things more privately.
But just as Xue Wanning announced the free time, Zhao Ning and Princess Zhao Yang hurriedly ran outside.
[Hehe, even if we hold on tightly, we probably won’t be able to make it to the nearest clean room. If something is spilled along the way, the two princesses…]
[Hey, that's not right, look, there are two young ladies over there, haha, enough for a mahjong table. Wash your underwear and dresses, and touch them a few times while they are hanging! 】
Those who heard it looked around quietly and saw Su Miaomiao and Qi Wanniang also running wildly behind the princess! And faintly, there was a suspicious yellow color on Su Miaomiao's skirt behind her...
