Cheng Xi sighed in her heart, she didn't want to be in the limelight like this, but these brainless girls always couldn't get along with her, but since it provoked her, how could she not accept it? She has always adhered to the principle that if people don't offend me, I won't offend anyone, and if someone offends me, I will pay it back.

Although she can't compose poems, she has memorized a lot of ancient poems since she was a child, and she can crush Lin Yuelan if she reads one at will! She's not afraid!

I saw Cheng Xi sitting on the chair, picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, slowly put it down, looked calm, and said lightly: "Okay!" It's spring now, flowers are blooming, let's take flowers as the theme, make a poem, and make a poem within seven steps, how about it? ”

"This ......" Hearing that she wanted to write a poem in seven steps, and she also had to use flowers as the theme, Lin Yuelan suddenly hesitated, although she was quick-witted, but it was not easy to make a good poem in such a short time.

Cheng Xi saw that Lin Yuelan hesitated, and knew that Lin Yuelan was weak-hearted, and it was right that her heart was empty, which showed that Lin Yuelan was still a little self-aware. After all, except for those who are open-minded like themselves, I'm afraid that few people can become poems in seven steps!

It's just that she won't let go of the opportunity to make Lin Yuelan look ugly, she said slowly: "If Miss Lin doesn't dare, Cheng Xi won't be strong, this is a poem, it's not comparable." ”

Cheng Xi is agitating the general, in order to get Lin Yuelan to agree, but Lin Yuelan misunderstood, she thought that Cheng Xi would not compose poetry at all, and deliberately raised this almost impossible problem, wanting to make herself retreat from the difficulties and not compare with her. Hum! is such a cunning ugly monster, I almost fell for her, since I have seen through her conspiracy, I must not let her succeed, and I have to reveal her true colors in public and make her ugly.

"Okay, better than that!" Lin Yuelan readily agreed, and when she was talking to Cheng Xi, she had already begun to conceive in her mind.

"Who's coming first?" Lin Yuelan asked.

"Feel free!" Cheng Xi said nonchalantly.

Cheng Xi glanced at Lin Yuelan, and saw that she was obviously relieved, everyone knows that in such a comparison, naturally whoever composes the poem first will suffer.

Seeing that Lin Yuelan didn't speak, Cheng Xi said very generously: "Since I proposed the seven-step poem, let me come first." ”

Cheng Xi stood up, just in time to see the garden outside the Showa Palace, flowers in full bloom, she saw the sea of flowers, she already had an idea in her heart, she stretched out her hand and pointed to the peony, smiled slightly, and said: "This peony is blooming beautifully, I will take her as the theme and chant a peony poem." ”

In the amazed eyes of everyone, Cheng Xi gently took the first step, her light purple dress swayed gently as she walked, and the whole person looked like a fairy in a flower.

Cheng Xi groaned: "The peony demon in front of the court is unqualified," she took a second step, "The pear blossoms on the tree are pure and affectionate." She took the third step, "Only the peony is true to the country, and the flowers move the capital when they bloom." ”

The three-step poem amazed everyone, not to mention the emperor, the queen, and the four princes, even those young people who read poetry and books felt that they were not as good as sighing when they heard it.

This poem was written in response to the occasion, the three flowers mentioned in her poem are blooming just right in the garden outside the Showa Palace, and she uses peony, pear blossom and peony to contrast, highlighting the true national color of peony, it is really a rare good poem, and what is even more commendable is that she only took three steps to complete a poem.

Most of the girls have just read books such as "Female Commandment" and "Internal Training", and there are not many who are really full of poetry books, most of them don't understand how Cheng Xi's poems are doing, and although Lin Yuelan is rude, she still has some ink in her stomach, especially when she heard the young men on the opposite side praise Cheng Xi's poems, her face became pale, and she looked at Cheng Xi with an unbelievable look.

Cheng Xi smiled slightly, returned to her seat, looked at Lin Yuelan's stunned appearance, her heart was extremely happy, she thought: I'm afraid that Lin Yuelan hasn't really understood the meaning of her poem, if she understands it, I'm afraid she will be so angry that she will vomit blood! Hahaha!

Just when everyone was still tasting Cheng Xi's poems, King Qin saw with sharp eyes that Cheng Xi looked at Lin Yuelan with a hint of cunning in his eyes, and he thought to himself: This ghost girl is really going to be retribution! In the name of writing poems to praise peonies, in fact, she borrowed peony and pear blossom to belittle Li Chulian and Lin Yuelan. It's wonderful!

It's just a pity, looking at the reactions of Li Chulian and Lin Yuelan, I'm afraid I didn't understand the meaning of this poem at all! What a pity!

Lin Yuelan saw Cheng Xi looking at herself with a smile, only to feel that her gaze was provoking herself, so she was so angry that she grabbed the handkerchief in her hand, and the little inspiration that finally popped up in her mind disappeared without a trace.

"Miss Lin, it's time for you to make poems!" Cheng Xi deliberately pronounced that poem very seriously.

Lin Yuelan saw that everyone's eyes were all focused on her, and the little inspiration she had just now was scared away by Cheng Xi, not to mention letting her compose poetry at this time, she couldn't even speak.

She knew that she would never be able to make a poem of such a high level as Cheng Xi within seven steps, in this case, it was better to hide it than racking her brains to chant a poem of low standard, which was compared to Cheng Xi and treated as a joke by everyone. She hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted her teeth, her face was blue, white, and red, and finally squeezed out three words, "I admit defeat." ”

Everyone was in an uproar, the famous first talented woman in the capital actually took the initiative to admit defeat? Still lost to Cheng Xi, who had no talent in poetry and books before?

"Miss Lin, I agreed." Cheng Xi slowly picked up the teacup and took a sip.

And Lin Yuelan and Li Chulian looked at Cheng Xi's eyes as if they were quenched with poison, and they couldn't understand how Cheng Xi became so powerful, could it be that after she was disfigured, she was disheartened and didn't do anything, only crying alone, these are all fake?

Is she lying on her salary, working hard, and without beauty, does she plan to make up for it with her talent?

They looked at the young man opposite, most of them showed admiration for Cheng Xi, and some of them looked at Cheng Xi with admiration in their eyes, so angry that their faces turned green.

And Lu Yuchen, the prince of the Protector's Mansion, saw those young men looking at Cheng Xi with burning eyes, and he felt very uncomfortable, Cheng Xi was originally hers, he was very worried in his heart, and he didn't know if there would be any unsightly guys to compete with him later.

The queen saw that the emperor's eyes were full of appreciation when he looked at Cheng Xi, she was very annoyed, she only hated that Li Chulian was not angry, and her follower Lin Yuelan was also useless, both of them let Cheng Xi steal the limelight, not to mention, but also let the eyes of Lu Yuchen, the prince of the Protector's Mansion, follow Cheng Xi all the time, but she didn't even glance at Li Chulian, she simply didn't take her as the queen in her eyes!

You know, Li Chulian is the queen's niece, this Lu Yuchen is so ignorant, he thinks he is the son of the princess, and he can do whatever he wants if he is the emperor's nephew? The queen was so angry that she gritted her teeth at this time, and resented Cheng Xi, hoping that Cheng Xi would disappear immediately and forever. It's just that she is the queen, and with her status, of course she can't drive Cheng Xi out.

The queen was thinking about how to deal with Cheng Xi in her heart, only to hear Li Chulian say: "What's so good about that Cheng Xi?" You look at her like this one by one, she is just an ugly monster who was divorced by the prince of the Protectorate Mansion before she passed the door, you still regard her as a treasure, just with her ugly appearance, she actually dares to be cheeky to participate in today's feast of flowers. Hum! ”

In fact, the people present, except for Lu Yuchen and King Qin who saw Cheng Xi's disfigured appearance, no one else saw Cheng Xi's disfigured appearance, but they had long heard that she was disfigured, from the first beauty in the capital to the first ugly girl in the capital, and because she was divorced by Lu Yuchen, everyone thought that she must be ugly.

When I saw her today, she was veiled and did not show her true face, but she was outstanding, talented, and radiant, and she really couldn't see where she was ugly, but felt that she had an outstanding temperament. Not only did the emperor admire her very much, but even the King of Qin and the King of Chu looked at her differently, and when they heard Li Chulian slandering Cheng Xi like this, many young men who were happy with Cheng Xi were indignant in their hearts, but because Li Chulian was the niece of the queen's mother, everyone dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, and no one dared to speak for Cheng Xi and speak for her.

As soon as Li Chulian's words fell, Lu Yuchen's face changed, although he was the one who personally retreated, but it was because he knew that there was a second miss in General Cheng's mansion, but now that the second miss has been ruined by bandits, he will definitely not marry that broken shoe, he was about to say something for Cheng Xi, so as to capture Cheng Xi's heart again, but he felt a cold gaze shooting towards him, it was the majestic gaze of the queen mother, like cold ice.

He had already promised the eldest prince King Jin, and naturally he was not afraid of the queen's mother, but after being looked at by the queen's mother, the impulse just now was gone.

At this time, Lin Yuelan's voice sounded: "Your Majesty, Miss Li is right, today's feast of flowers, all the ladies invited are talented and good-looking, although this Miss Cheng also has some talent, but her appearance is ugly, she really shouldn't appear here, if it spreads, I'm afraid that everyone will laugh at my Huaxia Kingdom, and ask the emperor to send a decree to let Miss Cheng go out and leave this feast of flowers." ”

I saw that the emperor's face sank, different from the gentle voice just now, this time his voice became majestic and cold, "Miss Cheng was invited by the Queen Mother to participate in the Hundred Flowers Feast, Miss Lin, Miss Li, don't you have any opinions on the Queen Mother's decree?" ”

When Li Chulian and Lin Yuelan heard this, their faces changed, and they hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty: "Your Majesty, the courtiers don't dare!" ”

The emperor didn't speak, but the Nine Emperors snorted coldly, "If you don't dare, don't talk nonsense, if you don't speak, no one thinks you are dumb!" ”
