Chapter 34 This King Cannot Write Poetry
"I'm sorry to make you laugh, Sister Yuyan, but I can't write poetry."
Yun Yuyan was obviously stunned: "I am so abrupt."
He can't compose poetry but he says it so bluntly. Does he have confidence or what does it mean?
She couldn't figure it out.
Before Bai Qinghuan could say anything, Chen Qingrui looked at her with disdain.
"Sister, I don't know what's wrong with you. You can't write poetry, but you're participating in this elegant event. Isn't that just making a fool of yourself?"
Yun Yuyan glared at her disapprovingly: "Qingrui, don't talk nonsense."
Although he said that, everyone could hear the doting tone, and the closeness was immediately apparent.
"Don't be surprised, sister Qinghuan. Qingrui is just outspoken. Don't bother with her. I apologize to you on her behalf."
Chen Qingrui pouted, but didn't say anything. It seemed that she obeyed Yun Yuyan's orders.
Others were full of praise for the way she cared about her younger sister.
Bai Qinghuan could immediately see the hypocrisy in her eyes.
Chen Qingrui is really brainless. Doesn't Yun Yuyan's apology on her make her seem even more unreasonable?
What good reputation can you get?
She even acted like she was doing this for my own good. This is extremely stupid.
"No problem. It's better to speak your mind than to say something sweet but mean something."
Yun Yuyan always felt that Bai Qinghuan was secretly mocking her, but she had no evidence.
Chen Qingrui was not convinced and wanted to say something, but Yun Yuyan pulled her sleeve and she stopped.
Bai Qinghuan discovered that Princess Changle became much quieter after Yun Yuyan arrived. She didn't believe that the two of them didn't have any conflicts.
She didn't say much and sat in her chair. The tea on the stove was boiling, emitting bursts of white smoke, which melted some of the chill.
There were some peanuts and chestnuts on the charcoal fire, which were roasted by the charcoal fire, making crackling sounds. The sweet aroma floated to her nose, and she was looking forward to their taste.
Holding the tea in both hands and sipping it, you will create a little world of your own and feel leisurely and content.
The fireworks of the world are the most soothing to the hearts of ordinary people.
Chen Kuan scratched his head, feeling that the atmosphere was a bit strange. Was Miss Bai being targeted?
She obviously did nothing.
Unable to figure it out, he looked into the distance and thought it would be more interesting than climbing a mountain.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up: "Is that the Black Armor Army?"
He just jumped up and pointed happily at the horses that were getting closer and closer.
If he could join the Black Armor Army, he would wake up laughing in his dreams.
Meeting the Black Armor Army was more enjoyable than meeting my family.
Bai Qinghuan’s eyes widened. Is that... the Regent?
How did he get here?
Just as they stood up, a dozen Black Armored Soldiers had already arrived.
Leading the group was the Regent, followed by Shu Feng and some soldiers in black armor.
"Why is my uncle here?"
My uncle is busy with national affairs every day, why would he come to the farm?
Could it be that there are matters involving state affairs in her manor?
She was frightened to death.
As soon as the Regent got off his horse, he was attracted by the girl holding tea.
She is so laid back!
"I am just passing by, you guys can have fun."
"Uncle, take a break. Would you like a cup of tea?"
"Okay."
Shu Feng's eyes were almost rolling up to the sky. The official road to the camp outside Beijing was a full fifty miles away from here.
It’s really convenient.
If you miss Miss Bai, why don't you just say it? How would Miss Bai know what you are thinking?
My Lord, you are such a dull person, you will suffer for this sooner or later.
The Regent sat down around the fireplace, still next to Bai Qinghuan.
Yun Yuyan glanced at Bai Qinghuan suspiciously, and was relieved when she saw that Bai Qinghuan looked normal.
She squeezed Chen Kuan aside and went to the other side of the Regent: "Are you going to the camp outside the capital?"
Last night, someone from the Yun family brought news from the camp outside the capital, saying that the Regent would go to the camp outside the capital for inspection today.
She had originally planned to show off in front of these noble men and ladies in the capital, and then wait for the Regent on the official road on her way back.
I didn't expect him to come here.
After not seeing him for a few years, he looked even more handsome and stern. Every time I saw him, my heart was out of control.
A blush appeared on her cheeks, and she lowered her head, revealing her white neck.
The beautiful girl is shy and timid, she is so beautiful.
Bai Qinghuan's heart was filled with alarm: this person was trying to snatch her person away, he was a strong rival.
Chi Songtao, who was farther away, felt very disappointed. Yuyan liked the Regent, so he had no chance.
Chen Qingrui wanted to show off. Although she was afraid of the majesty of the Regent, she still said, "Your Majesty, we are writing poems. Sister Yuyan's poems are very good."
He also recited Yun Yuyan's poem and smiled at her in a flattering manner.
"What do you think of my sister's poem, Your Majesty?"
Yun Yuyan responded with a grateful smile, and Chen Qingrui was as happy as if she had won a prize.
The Regent turned his eyes away from the tea and said, "Yeah, not bad."
I don't know whether he is talking about tea or poetry.
Chen Qingrui tacitly accepted that it was the Regent King who praised Yuyan as his sister.
"If the prince thinks it's good, then that's great. Sister Yuyan's poems are definitely the best in the capital. But Miss Bai said she can't write poems, and we don't believe it."
He looked at Bai Qinghuan provocatively, almost calling Bai Qinghuan a idiot and a waste.
Bai Qinghuan still said openly: "Miss Chen is right, I really can't write poetry, I'm sorry to make you laugh."
"Women are all proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and couplets, but Miss Bai knows nothing. It's too..."
Chen Qingrui tried to flatter Bai Qinghuan, hoping to see disgust on the Regent's face, but unfortunately she was destined to be disappointed.
The Regent's eye drops are not easy to apply.
Princess Changle couldn't bear to see Chen Qingrui belittling Qinghuan like this: "Chen Qingrui, how many men would feel inferior to Qinghuan's handwriting before, have you forgotten?"
Chen Qingrui's smile disappeared, she indeed forgot about it.
So what if you can write a few words? Don't think you can get rid of the label of being a fool or a waste.
Yun Yuyan stopped her from talking and said, "Your Majesty, would you like to compose a poem to open the eyes of our servants?"
The Regent took a sip of the teacup slowly and said, "...I, the king, cannot write poetry."
Yun Yuyan almost broke her nails. The prince was a man of both literary and military skills, so how could he not be able to compose a poem?
Does he not want to or does he want to vent Bai Qinghuan's anger and deliberately lose face for her?
But Bai Qinghuan and the prince have no connection at all, so that definitely won't happen.
This is definitely an excuse.
The prince would definitely not like what they are playing because he is busy with important matters.
Yes, that must be the case.
"Your Majesty is joking."
She almost couldn't hold back the smile in the corner of her eyes. Why did the prince treat her like this?
It must be because she was away for three years.
Now that she is back, she will pick up the old affection bit by bit.
The position of Regent Princess must be hers.
At this moment, the peanuts and chestnuts on the charcoal fire were roasted.
Bai Qinghuan preferred chestnuts. She took a few chestnuts off the charcoal fire with tongs, put them on a plate beside her to cool, and then started to peel them.
The shell of the roasted chestnuts was very easy to peel. She peeled one in just a few strokes, revealing the steaming golden chestnut flesh. The sweet aroma tempted her to put it in her mouth.
"Hmm~"
Sweet, soft and glutinous, how can it be more delicious?
On a cold winter day, there is nothing better than roasted chestnuts.
Seeing that she was enjoying her meal, others started to eat as well.
Chen Kuan was shaking his head while eating: "There are three treasures in winter: chestnuts, peanuts and candied haws. Now we have everything except candied haws."
Princess Changle was very curious: "Is there such a saying? I must try the candied haws when I get back."
They ate with a delicious taste.
Yun Yuyan carefully peeled a chestnut and handed it to the Regent: "Your Majesty, would you like to try it?"
