Today's Qi Shao is different, gentle and dignified, gentle and quiet, and he is full of the demeanor of a famous lady in every stroke.

After a while, Qi Shao stopped writing, Wen Ling thought that he could watch Qi Shao's paintings now, but he didn't expect that when the ink was dry, the paintings would be taken away.

Seeing that Wen Ling didn't understand, Huang Xinrou explained, "In order to show fairness, the competition is different every year, and all the nobles can only use calligraphy and painting, and until the last person finishes writing and painting, they can see everyone's works, so that there will be no bias in the selection." ”

"Originally, this was a place for unmarried men and women to see each other, and it was too slow to play chess and the piano, so the chrysanthemum banquet was stipulated every year that only calligraphy and painting could be done."

Wen Ling nodded and said that he understood, and then Wen Ling didn't know all the people on the field, Wen Ling felt a little boring, it usually takes at least a quarter of an hour to describe a Danqing, and now there are so many people, they have to die of exhaustion.

Fortunately, the next people were two people, or three people competing at the same time, and after waiting for a while, Wen Ling wanted to find an excuse to walk around, but Huang Xinrou called her name, "Ling'er, it's time for you to go, remember, don't be the best and don't be the worst." This time, it must be Qin Yatou who came out. ”

Wen Ling stepped forward, took a breath, and raised his head to look in Huang Xinrou's direction. I could only say sorry to her in my heart, Wen Ling picked up the pen and dipped it in ink. She began to draw on rice paper, this time more seriously than ever.

One stroke at a time, carefully depicted, and after a while, a complete Danqing map came out.

Wait for the next person to take away Wen Ling's paintings, and this game between nobles and ladies will be over. Wen Ling looked at the man's side, and happened to see Mu Sheng taking the pen. Sensing Wen Ling's gaze, he smiled gently at Wen Ling, who hurriedly lowered his head and didn't look at him.

Since he knew that Mu Sheng went to Wen Jinyan to propose marriage, Mu Sheng also admitted that he liked her, and Wen Ling also rejected him, and he couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

The last painting was taken away, and it was time for the selection. Several maids brought up their works and showed them to everyone. Wen Ling felt that this group of noble girls was really noble girls, and if she didn't play some tricks, I was afraid that she would have no chance of winning at all.

The works that have been opened are spread out on the table one by one, because the order and the works have been re-disrupted, so no one knows whose work it is, Wen Ling feels that God is helping her, otherwise this group of noble girls will go to please Qi Shao and vote for her, and her efforts these days will be in vain.

Sure enough, there are gentle ones in the last three works. The remaining three works, one of which is a dabbling on horseback, carefully depicts the heroic posture of the hunter shooting his prey during the hunt.

One is a picture of a noble girl frolicking, and what is even more valuable is that the noble girl in the painting is all the people who came to participate in the chrysanthemum feast.

There is also a picture of lotus picking, there is nothing new in the lotus picking picture, the novelty is that the lotus picking in the painting is not someone else, it is the lotus itself, seeing this picture, Huang Xinrou's face is not good-looking.

The next vote, the number of votes has been very anxious, the three works you chase me, but in the end it was tied, and everyone looked at each other for a while, which has never happened before.

Before everyone could come up with a solution, they heard a loud eunuch's voice "The emperor has arrived", but they didn't expect that it was the end of the game, and the emperor could still come.

For a while, everyone got up to greet the emperor. Only Wen Ling stayed at the end, took out something from his arms, and poured it on the lotus picking map.

When the group approached, led by the concubine Niangniang, they saluted and greeted each other. Le's Qi Zhan smiled and opened his eyebrows, "Okay, good, I look at you young people, and I know that the pillars of the country are indispensable in the future." ”

Qi Zhan helped Ye Zixi to get up, and took advantage of the situation to hold the soft little hand, because he knew that Ye Zixi would not refuse him only when there were many people, and sure enough, even if Ye Zixi was already stiff, he still smiled and let him hold him.

Waiting for the emperor and the concubine to sit on the main seat, everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them, the original lifelike lotus picking picture, now there are a few dragonflies and butterflies standing on it, staying for a long time, this is a painting that makes them unable to distinguish the true from the fake? Originally, I was still thinking about who to give it to first, but now the situation is clear.

Emperor Qi took the lead and applauded: "Okay, good, good, my noble daughters of Da Qi are really all talented and rich." I announced that the first is this lotus picking picture, what is the color of the concubine this year? ”

"Back to the emperor, this year's lottery is that the concubine gives the first person a privilege and can provide a request for the first place."

"Okay, in that case, I'll also add a little more color, and the first place can ask me for anything." That being said, who would really dare to make any excessive demands? It's not just a small fight, the most important thing is to get into the eyes of the emperor.

At this time, Qi Hongxin also brought the first work of the man to see the emperor. "Sons and daughters see their fathers and mothers. This is the work of the first place in the men's group, and the son specially took it to his father and mother to see. ”

The elm smoke is new, the Qingming Festival is over, and the green nine leaves. Xinhui is the first day of the fairy, and the phoenix cave produces real cormorants. Heart-warming, splendid articles, and honors in the mirror period. Temporarily living in the horse tent, I later learned that it depends on foresight.

can be imagined as a late bloomer, with fame and ambition, and not inferior to Mu Sheng. Nai is not in the body first, and the fruit is in the autumn wind. Poetry, wine, piano and chess, wind and snow. ”

After reading it, Emperor Qi was even more happy, "Go, go and bring the first place over for me to see." Such a transparent person must be the talent of my great pillars. ”

Wen Ling also wanted to know who the first place was, and when she saw that the person following Qi Hongxin was Mu Sheng, she was shocked, frightened and panicked, which made Wen Ling at a loss for a while.

She was afraid, she was too afraid, she was afraid that the emperor would ask Mu Sheng what he wanted, and Mu Sheng would directly ask Emperor Qi to marry, and then the consequences would be out of control.

"The grass people have seen the emperor and the concubine."

"Okay, I don't know which son this is, and who is his surname?"

"If you go back to the emperor, the grass people are a child of a poor family. I was fortunate to have the guidance of the Prime Minister, and the grass people's name was Mu Sheng. ”

"It turned out to be Wen Aiqing's beloved apprentice, no wonder he is so talented. Since you have also taken the first place, you should first tell me what you want. I can also meet your request, by the way, who made that lotus picking picture just now? ”

Wen Ling immediately got up: "If you go back to the emperor, the lotus picking picture is done by the courtiers."

"It turned out to be you, a little girl, who won the first place in the first banquet for the first time.

Today, the biggest winner is Wen Aiqing, the disciple won the first place in the men's group, and the daughter won the first place in the women's group. ”

"Ling'er, tell me how you managed to keep dragonflies and butterflies on the paintings?"

"Back to the emperor, the courtiers just sprinkled some powder on the painting that can attract butterflies and dragonflies, and the courtiers used some assistance to ask the emperor for forgiveness."

"You have the ability to do it, what's the crime? I promised each of you one a request, which of you two will speak first? ”
