"Oh, so you still want this imperial edict?!" Fang Jue asked with a smile.
"May I ask how you can give me this imperial edict?" Tangyuan asked directly.
"Tangyuan! Don't be rude," Xuan Yu stepped forward to dissuade him.
"Don't worry, Brother Xuanyu, I know what I'm doing!"
"Alright! Interesting! I'll give you some time to prove you're qualified to take this imperial edict."
Tangyuan rolled her eyes and thought for a moment before saying, "Alright, then I'll recite three poems. If Mr. Fang has read even one of them, I won't need this imperial edict."
"Poetry?! Great! Is there any poetry in the world that I haven't read?! Please!" Fang Jue said confidently. The people around him laughed at Tang Yuan for not knowing what was good for him. Everyone knew that Fang Jue was a rare talent who had read all kinds of books.

"If you can't even answer the first one, you'll know even less about the other two."
"This!?...May I ask where this poem comes from?"
"My mother wrote it, can I have it now?"

Fang Jue presented the imperial edict with both hands. Tang Yuan took the edict and happily left with the soldiers. Only after they had gone some distance did they hear Fang Jue, as if waking from a dream, chasing after them and asking, "May I ask who your mother is?"
"You'll find out later!" Tangyuan said loudly.
