Chapter 80 The Truth About Poetry



Seeing that Lin Zan, who was imprisoned in Hanfang Pavilion, was not discouraged but comforted himself with his strong appearance, Jun Anqing was so moved that he burst into tears and spoke in a more determined tone.

"No, Li Zi, don't worry, I will definitely rescue you and I will never go back on my word." Jun Anqing said, clenching his fists.

Lin Zan smiled indifferently and continued to chew the ribs in his mouth. Only Jun Beiqi sat aside without saying a word, looking at Lin Zan silently, wondering what he was thinking about.

No matter what, Lin Zan is still in custody, so Jun Beiqi and Jun Anqing cannot stay here for long and will leave after a while.

When leaving, Jun Anqing reluctantly held Lin Zhan's hand and said, "Li Zi, you must wait for me, don't be discouraged."

"Okay, okay, I get it. I'll wait for you." Lin Zan said perfunctorily to Jun Anqing.

Jun Beiqi reached out and slapped the two people's clasped hands, then grabbed Jun Anqing's collar and was about to leave. Before leaving, he said to Lin Zhan, "I will go and plead for mercy, you just wait patiently."

"Hehe, it's okay for me. If the prince really wants to plead for me, then I would thank you very much." Lin Zan looked indifferent, as if she really didn't care whether the prince would plead for her or not.

After experiencing this incident, Lin Zan completely understood the ruthlessness of the royal family. Besides, Jun Beiqi in the original book was not a person who liked to meddle in other people's affairs.

This matter also involves Si Xueyi, who has the Phoenix Star Fate. Jun Beiqi might want to be with Si Xueyi so that he can ascend to the throne smoothly.

In this unpredictable palace, Lin Zhan will never fully trust anyone again.

Jun Beiqi looked at Lin Zan's obviously indifferent expression and didn't say anything else. He took Jun Anqing and quietly left Hanfang Pavilion.

"Brother, we must find a way to rescue Li Zi. Since mother is unwilling to come forward, I will go and ask father for help." For the first time, Jun Anqing's round little face showed an extremely serious expression as he said to Jun Beiqi.

Jun Beiqi glanced at him and said directly, "I will go with you."

Jun Anqing was a little surprised to hear his words, but soon he was overjoyed. With the participation of his eldest brother, maybe his father would really show leniency.

In this way, Jun Beiqi and Jun Anqing came to the imperial study to ask to see the emperor. Although the emperor did not see the empress, he saw them.

After all, everyone in the harem knew that Liu Qiuchan and Lin Zan had a very good relationship. The emperor knew that the queen would definitely plead for Lin Zan, so he chose to avoid her.

However, the emperor never expected that his two sons would kneel down and plead for Lin Zan as soon as they entered the imperial study.

"You are here to force me to change my mind and release Lin Zhan." The emperor was a little angry, his face looked extremely ugly, staring at his two sons.

Jun Anqing said anxiously. "Father, there must be something else behind this. I know Li Zi. She is not an ambitious person, nor would she be so vicious as to harm others."

"I think so too. Besides, does Your Majesty still remember the poem I wrote at Princess Silin's full moon banquet?" Jun Beiqi suddenly said inexplicably.

Hearing his words, the emperor could not help but be stunned, frowning and saying, "Of course I remember the magnificent poem you wrote at the full moon banquet."

"Wait until September eighth in autumn, when my flower blooms, all other flowers will die. The fragrance will penetrate Chang'an into the sky, and the whole city will be covered with golden armor." Jun Beiqi recited the poem in a leisurely voice.

The emperor's eyes could not help but reveal a look of shock and nostalgia again. He nodded slightly and said, "Every time I think of this poem, I feel overwhelmed. The prince is quick-witted and is a blessing to Northern Qi."

Unexpectedly, Jun Beiqi shook his head slightly and suddenly said something that shocked the emperor. "Father, I am guilty. In fact, I did not write this poem. Lin Zhan told me this poem. This poem just came out of my mouth."

After the words fell, not only the emperor was shocked, but even Jun Anqing, who was kneeling on the ground, opened his eyes wide and opened his mouth as if an egg could be stuffed in.

"What did you say? This poem was written by Lin Zhan, who was only seven years old at the time." The emperor stood up suddenly and said while staring at Jun Beiqi.

Jun Beiqi nodded again, confirming this statement. "Please forgive me for concealing the truth, Father. How could a man who can write such a magnificent poem do such a mean thing as competing for favor with a woman? I hope you will understand."

After the words fell, the emperor was silent for a long time before he sat back in his chair and exhaled heavily. "Prince, you said that this poem was written by Lin Zhan, but this is too unbelievable. I have to doubt it."

"If this poem was really written by Lin Zhan, then it proves that she is a genius. I can release her, but she must prove to me in person that she is worthy."

This sentence also meant that the emperor had given in. As long as Lin Zhan could prove that she really had talent that could astonish the world, then everything that had been done before could be written off.

This was an opportunity that Jun Beiqi had fought for Lin Zan. Jun Beiqi quickly expressed his gratitude and told Lin Zan the news.

"That is to say, the emperor wants to test me." Lin Zhan blinked in surprise.

Jun Beiqi nodded. "That's right, as long as you can pass your father's test, you can escape from danger."

Unexpectedly, the emperor also loved talents. Things had come to this point, and Lin Zhan naturally had no choice, so he nodded and agreed.

The news that the emperor loved talent and wanted to test Lin Zhan soon spread throughout the harem, and the test was set to take place in the imperial garden.

When Lin Zan arrived there, she found that there were quite a few people. Among the crowd, Liu Qiuchan was staring at her with a caring look and gave her a firm look.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that the poem written at Princess Silin's full-moon banquet was written by Lin Zhan. How is that possible? She was only a few years old at the time. How could she have written such a magnificent poem? Could it be that she had such awareness at such a young age? It's ridiculous!"

"Maybe this is just a trick used by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to rescue Lin Zhan." Concubine Qin pinched her freshly painted nails and made sarcastic remarks.

Liu Qiuchan was furious and retorted, "What's the matter, Concubine Qin, are you jealous? Your own child is not as talented as a seven-year-old girl."

After she finished speaking, Concubine Qin's face turned red with anger.
