The burst of laughter here immediately aroused the curiosity of the other women, but in a moment, more than a dozen girls came.

"Miss Wen, what are you laughing at?"

"Isn't there anything funny? Everyone is happy to say it. ”

A few girls who were familiar with Wen Wan asked out loud, their eyes scanning Luo Qingluan's body from time to time, and they obviously recognized her.

The last time the queen held a flower-viewing banquet, Luo Qingluan's song 'Water Lotus' was a natural sound, which amazed countless people and spread throughout the capital. But for these girls who want to become princesses, the more outstanding and eye-catching Luo Qingluan is, the more she steals the limelight from them, how can she not be very jealous?

It was exactly what he wanted, seeing that he had attracted so many people, Fang Mingzhu said with a sneer: "Everyone should know, Miss Luo Er is going to challenge Miss Wei Chi tonight and compete for the title of the first talented woman, just now we asked her to chant a poem, feast her ears, but Miss Luo Er actually said that she wouldn't, you say, isn't it funny?" ”

The girl with a round face among the three, Zhuang Yulan, the daughter of Guanglu Temple, immediately sneered: "What's funny, it's obvious that Miss Luo Er looks down on us and disdains us." ”

Wen Wan added a sentence moderately, adding fuel to the fire: "Of course, otherwise how could Miss Luo Er not appreciate her face and refuse to recite a poem casually?" As soon as she finished speaking, she rolled her eyes and added: "Could it be that Miss Luo Er really can't, it's really a straw bale?" ”

"Miss Wen's mouth is so stinky, is it that the stinky tofu she ate at home at noon has not been digested yet?"

Suddenly, Luo Qingluan, who had never spoken, came out with a sentence, she looked at Wen Wan lightly, as if she was smiling: "Miss Wen, it's not good to eat too much stinky tofu, and it smells like this, you are a young lady, if you are laughed at because of your appetite, the gain outweighs the loss, right?" ”

Wen Wan was startled and blurted out: "How do you know that I ......"

The words stopped abruptly, and she suddenly reacted and said that she had leaked her mouth, and her face was red and white for a while, but unfortunately it was irretrievable.

The habit of eating stinky tofu was a habit she developed two years ago, and she was just curious about what people were secretly eating, but after smelling this strange smell, she couldn't give up inexplicably.

Her parents also warned her that this kind of thing was eaten by inferior people, and she was not allowed to touch it again in the future. But she seemed to be fascinated, and fell in love with this special taste, so much so that she ate it from time to time.

Now that Luo Qingluan said it on the spot, the daughters around Wen Wan suddenly looked at her strangely, and quickly walked away one by one, for fear of being contaminated with the smell on her body, with a disgusted look, and fanned their noses with their hands.

Angry and embarrassed, she was annoyed and scolded angrily: "Luo Qingluan, you are talking nonsense, I didn't eat that kind of thing." ”

"Didn't eat?"

Luo Qingluan said with a straight face: "Impossible, I obviously smelled a strange smell in Miss Wen's mouth, and it was clear that there was no residual taste after gargling after eating stinky tofu, hmm...... Otherwise, how could Miss Wen speak so stinky? ”

"Shut up! Luo Qingluan, you are talking nonsense, you stop talking! ”

Only then did she know that she had been deceived, but Wen Wan couldn't figure it out, why Luo Qingluan could guess that she had eaten stinky tofu? didn't have time to think about this, Wen Wan's face was distorted, her face turned from white to red, almost dripping blood, she couldn't stand the eyes of the people around her anymore, she lifted her skirt and ran away.

In the laughter, everyone took a while to recover, and then looked at Luo Qingluan, with a hint of jealousy in their eyes.

I didn't expect to see her smile gently and softly in front of the queen mother last time, and she spoke softly, and thought that Luo Qingluan was a good temper. When I saw her today, I realized that she spoke without scruples, and she could talk about dead people with one mouth.

Although not everyone was familiar with Wen Wan, they were jealous because of Luo Qingluan's words just now, for fear that they would accidentally provoke her, and encounter something like Wen Wan, and they couldn't help but stay away from her.

Seeing that everyone was frightened by Luo Qingluan, how could Fang Mingzhu be willing to give up?

"Miss Luo Er, we were talking about poetry just now, what are you doing with Miss Wen?" Fang Mingzhu sneered, and said with bad intentions: "Tonight, the moon is in the sky, and it is the annual poetry meeting, we just heard that you said that you want to challenge Miss Wei Chi, so we want to hear how the poems you make, why, now that everyone is here, you can't pretend?" ”

"Don't take us all for fools, Miss Luo Er, everyone is waiting for you." Zhuang Yulan also said.

was really tired of being harassed by these people, Luo Qingluan finally stood up and said lightly: "I'm sorry, since everyone is here, then I will state one thing in public, I never said that I wanted to challenge Miss Wei Chi, let alone win the title of the first talented woman." As for who deliberately said these words, that's none of my business. ”

Seeing Luo Qingluan's denial, Fang Mingzhu and the others were slightly stunned, and then sneered: "That's not what I said, if Miss Luo Er really didn't say such a thing, how could it be spread all over the capital?" ”

Zhuang Yulan rolled her eyes and continued: "No, I went to Miss Wei Chi's house a few days ago, and I saw Miss Luo Er's reply to Miss Wei Chi's post with my own eyes, can you say that there is no such thing?" ”

"Reply to post is there, but ......"

Before Luo Qingluan finished speaking, Zhuang Yulan had already interrupted her words and sneered: "That post clearly said that I want to ask Miss Wei Chi for advice, isn't this what it means to challenge?" Miss Luo Er, since the words have been spoken, and you have been preparing for so many days, why are we asking you to make a poem so delayed? ”

"People clearly look down on us, after all, we are not talented women like Miss Wei Chi, and we can afford the challenge of Miss Luo Er." Immediately someone said it sourly.

Everyone became more and more dissatisfied with Luo Qingluan's attitude, and they talked about it one by one, looking at her with hostility in their eyes.

Luo Qingluan was speechless, why did she say the truth, but these people didn't believe it?

Isn't it strange that you can't compose poetry?

She never wanted to cause trouble, but these people had nothing to do when they were full, so they wanted to find her, but they were afraid that they would not be slapped in the face, and these people would really bully her alone.

At this moment, a eunuch chanting with a long voice came: "The queen mother has arrived-"

The women were startled, and hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "I've seen the queen." ”

Tonight's queen is still graceful and luxurious, full of smiles, and pearlescent temples, showing the posture of the mother of a country, not inferior to the former queen who passed away. The long skirt reached the ground, as soft as layers of waves, she was supported by Song Guifei, followed by a group of palace maids, and slowly walked into the middle of the seat.

"Everybody."

A gentle voice sounded, the queen sat down, glanced at everyone with a smile, and after everyone returned to their seats, she said: "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival again, a rare night of reunion, Your Majesty is having fun with the ministers in the Longteng Palace, just come, we play our own, everyone has to have a good night." ”

Everyone said respectfully: "What Niangniang said is true." ”

Queen Wang pursed her lips and smiled: "You don't need to be so restrained, don't you still have a poetry meeting tonight?" Are those talented girls here? Bengong has long heard that the youngest daughter of Xuanping Hou is famous, and she is a rare beauty in Western Chu. ”

As she spoke, she looked around, and sure enough, immediately a girl came out and walked in the middle and bowed: "The courtier lieutenant Chi Lianqing, I have seen the queen's mother." ”

"You are the county lord of Yiyang? Come to Hongu's side and let Hongu take a good look. The queen's eyes lit up, and her smile became even greater.

Everyone, including Luo Qingluan, also looked at the girl at the same time, only to see that she was fifteen or sixteen years old, and her face was still vaguely childish, but her calm demeanor and the indifference and elegance revealed by her body made her a little more calm and atmospheric. Qiong's nose is small, her lips are as soft as petals, a thin layer of fat powder is applied, and a pair of crystal earrings swaying next to her cheeks, the crystal brilliance is shining, and her whole person is like a fairy who has fallen into the mortal dust.

Sure enough, it's not bad, no wonder there is the title of the first beauty in Xichu. Luo Qingluan smiled faintly, but that's how she feels, she is not a man after all, no matter how beautiful a woman is, she will look at it like this, and she will not be jealous of other people's appearances.

It's just that it is unknown whether this Miss Wei Chi is as famous as in the rumor, and Wenxiu is kind.

The light yarn flickered, Wei Chi Lianqing raised her head slightly, and said softly: "Yes." ”

After speaking, the lotus step moved lightly, with a smile and a dusty momentum, which couldn't help but make everyone ashamed of themselves and feel inferior. When she finally sat next to the queen, the smile on her face became more and more supple and gentle, which made people feel good.

"Sure enough, it's a good Peugeot person, I don't know if it's okay?" Song Guifei also laughed when she saw it.

"Back to the concubine Niangniang, no." Yu Chi Lianqing said softly, a little shy.

"That's good!" Song Guifei immediately looked at Queen Wang and said, "Sister is so blessed, doesn't Your Majesty really want to choose a princess for His Royal Highness the Prince?" I think the county lord of Yiyang is very suitable! is not only the first beauty, but also famous, but she is the right candidate for the crown princess. If it weren't for my emperor's ...... Hey, my sister wants to fight for my sister. ”

Queen Wang, who said this, laughed, but Yu Chi Lianqing looked shy, bowed her head and said nothing.

After laughing and laughing, Song Guifei said: "Sister, since everyone is here, why don't you start tonight's poetry meeting?" My sister also wants to listen to the masterpieces of all talented women.,Compared to this year, it must be better than last year's masterpieces.。 ”

Nodding, in the eager eyes of everyone, Queen Wang said: "Well, this Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting is held once a year, and this year's rules are similar to last year." In addition to the rewards that the top three winners will receive from me and Your Majesty, there will also be rewards for any outstanding and unique work, or something refreshing. ”

The main purpose of the women's participation in the moon viewing banquet is for this ranking.

In previous years, it was just that, although it was glorious to get the reward from His Majesty and the queen's mother, but after all, it was some wealth, and for the nobles like them, who had never been lacking, it was just a good face.

But this year is different, once you fall into the eyes of the queen's mother, or your majesty's masterpiece is fancied, it is possible to become the crown princess. This is a major event related to their lifelong happiness and family glory, and everyone invariably cheered up 120,000 spirits.

"I don't know which one started this year's Yongyue poems?"

As soon as Queen Wang finished speaking, she suddenly remembered something, and looked for her eyes in the crowd: "By the way, is Miss Luo Er from the General's Mansion here, where is it?" ”
