One, two, three...... Bilian's loud number report sounded unhurriedly, and the flower balls were also spread in everyone's hands in an orderly manner. Every time someone passed, a loud gasp could be heard. I don't know if it's nervous or excited.

By the fifty-seventh, Bilian stopped. Everyone's eyes stopped on the girl who had won the jackpot. The girl was not very old, about thirteen or fourteen years old, and she was suddenly watched by everyone, a little nervous, and her face turned red. He stood up and stumbled and chanted a poem. Because the voice was too quiet, every time he spoke, the maid next to him repeated it.

After she finished speaking, she left early to write down her poems and gave her to confirm. In order to facilitate the evaluation of the meeting. Of course, if there are good poems and good words, they can also be circulated.

However, this girl's poems are obviously average, not average, barely average. After reading a poem, everyone didn't react. Go ahead and start throwing flower balls.

This is repeated, and when the hourglass is about to run out, six girls have already won the lottery. Except for Yunxi, the rest of the people Shen Qingru didn't know very well. Yunxi's writing is very good, and among the six people, she is the leader for the time being. On the male side, Ji Ruchuan knew, and his tail was about to rise to the sky. couldn't stop showing off to Xiao Ran and Lan Yu. Wen Zisheng, who rarely attends banquets, is actually with a few people, and he seems to be quite familiar.

Seeing that this round was about to end, and he hadn't been hit yet, Gu Ruochan was a little anxious. At this time, the flower ball happened to be passed to a few people in front of her, Gu Ruochan was entangled, if it really came to her, should it be passed to Shen Qingru, or should she keep it for herself?

On the one hand, Gu Ruochan wanted to see Shen Qingru's poems. On the one hand, she didn't want to leave such a good opportunity to Shen Qingru. If it doesn't take her turn, it won't be too cost-effective. I knew that I shouldn't have agreed just now. Gu Ruochan was secretly annoyed.

The flower ball was passed into Gu Ruochan's hand, and Gu Ruochan did not immediately throw it to Shen Qingru. She wants these mediocre people to listen to what real poetry is.

Forty-five, forty-six, forty-seven, stop.

The flower bulb was still in Gu Ruochan's hand. It's a pity for Gong Ruo'er in front, she thought that Gu Ruochan could pass it on to Shen Qingru, so that Shen Qingru would be embarrassed. Although the last competition was won by Shen Qingru. But including Shen Ningru and Gong Ling, they all decided that Shen Qingru must have used some cheating method. There is no way to cheat today, Shen Qingru is about to show his original form. Why didn't Gu Ruochan throw it out. Shen Ningru in the distance also felt pity.

Gu Ruochan had already prepared, stood up with great interest, and chanted loudly: "The water in the suckling duck pond is shallow and deep, and the weather is semi-cloudy and sunny when the plums are ripe. The spring garden is full of wine and the autumn garden is drunk, and the loquat tree is golden. ”

Shen Qingru nodded slightly, and many ladies showed expressions of appreciation. Gu Ruochan's writing is still very good. If Shen Qingru hadn't cheated, he really couldn't compare. In ancient times, there were few entertainment activities, and women who had not left the cabinet could only stay at home, read poetry and learn painting. Much stronger than Shen Qingru's half-hanging.

In such a short period of time, Gu Ruochan was able to make a good poem. It also includes the Changqiu Garden and the Spring Courtyard, which echoes from beginning to end, which is really rare. The name of a talented woman is well deserved. As for saying that she is the first talented woman in Daxiao, Shen Qingru thinks that it needs to be verified.

At the end of the first round, Gu Ruochan's poems were slightly higher than Yunxi's, and he was temporarily the leader.

Yunxi didn't care, she did it at will. This game was originally a struggle between Gu Ruochan and Shen Qingru, and Yunxi would rather keep a low profile than get into trouble.

On the men's side, Gu Xiao and Gu Qingxuan were more chattering than Ji Ruchuan before. But a little lead, like something. There is actually a humane congratulations. Gu Xiao touched his beard, pretending to flatter each other with the sycophant.

Ji Ruchuan scoffed. Xiao Ran smashed him with his elbow, "Sister-in-law lost." "Xiao Ran is purely watching the excitement, and it's not a big deal. The more lively, the better.

Ji Ruchuan snorted with his nostrils and muttered, "Xi'er is just too low-key." Don't like to be in the limelight. ”

Seeing Xiao Ran's suspicious gaze, Ji Ruchuan rarely didn't make trouble with him, but twisted his head to the side arrogantly.

How do these ordinary people know how good his daughter-in-law is. Yunxi's literary brilliance, even he sighed to himself. You must know that at that time, he had already become the champion, and he still lost more and won less against Yunxi in poetry.

And because my father-in-law is a general, he is stationed at the border all year round. Yunxi has been there a few times, seen the frontier customs, and knows that the march is hard. The poems are agitated and high-spirited, the tone is sonorous, and the artistic conception is open and clear. Ji Ruchuan A man read it, and he felt embarrassed every time. 's own mind and vision can't compare to a woman.

Yunxi is special, others don't know. Ji Ruchuan also didn't want others to know. It's good that he knows it himself, too many people know, what if someone comes to rob it.

Thinking about it like this, Ji Ruchuan felt much more comfortable.

After a short break, the second round begins quickly. With the first round as a foreshadowing, everyone relaxed a lot in the second round. More into the game.

In the second round, it was still not Shen Qingru's turn. The flower ball passed through Gu Ruochan's hand several times, but it was not passed to Shen Qingru until the fifth tone, but unfortunately Bilian did not shout to stop.

Gu Ruochan couldn't help but wonder if Shen Qingru had done something. Fortunately, those who came today are all famous families, and their identities are unspeakably expensive. Many old ladies, Gu Ruochan didn't want to offend. Therefore, even though he was anxious, his face was still light.

In the second round, there were still seven people who got the flower ball. Among them, Shen Wanru and Xiao Yueluo each made a song. It's all plain and bland, and there's nothing brilliant about it. Shen Qingru is still playing soy sauce this round.

During the break, Shen Qingru was talking to the county lord of Weixi, and Gu Ruochan couldn't help but interject: "Are you afraid of me and have done something?" ”

The positions of the three of them were close, Gu Ruochan lowered his voice, and no one paid attention to this side. Shen Qingru looked at the sky and rolled his eyes: "The county lord thinks too much. If so, what am I promising you to do? ”

Gu Ruochan didn't give up: "Then why hasn't it been your turn yet?" ”

Shen Qingru shrugged his shoulders: "How do I know." Maybe I'll be there soon. ”

Gu Ruochan glared at her for a while and returned to his seat. Shen Qingru suddenly had a feeling of conflict with the children in the same class when he was in elementary school. Many times, Gu Ruochan is indeed like a child, a spoiled child. The whole world can only revolve around her.

It seems that in order to confirm Shen Qingru's words, the first one in the third round is her.

Gu Ruochan was finally satisfied, as long as the palace didn't help Shen Qingru cheat. But soon, the smile on her face could not be contained.

I saw Shen Qingru slowly stand up, clear his throat, and said aloud without hurrying: "There are flowers in spring, there is a moon in autumn, there is a cool breeze in summer, and there is snow in winter. Don't worry about idle things, it is a good time in the world. ”

Shen Qingru likes this poem very much, especially the first two sentences, which have the fan of a literary young man. The Changqiu Garden is picturesque all year round, and it is just right to use it.

Gu Ruochan knew that it was not good after listening to the first two sentences, her literary literacy was high, and she could taste the good and bad of the poem. Undoubtedly, this poem is much higher than her in terms of artistic conception and language.

As soon as Shen Qingru's words fell, a lady shouted "Okay".

The princess repeated it carefully, and the more she listened, the more flavorful it became. The old princess had an appreciative smile on her face, and her eyes were extremely peaceful when she looked at Shen Qingru.

Shen Qingru is brilliant, and he also gives the palace a long face. Before, the old princess was afraid that Shen Qingru would not be able to do it, so she was ready to relieve Shen Qingru when the time came. I didn't expect Shen Qingru's poems to be so good and gave her a big surprise.

Shen Qingru finished reciting and sat down calmly. She could feel the gaze around her, and she could feel all kinds of emotions. Among them, a few of the hottest. Shen Qingru didn't need to look at it, he knew that it was Shen Ningru, Qin Xiyan, and Gu Ruochan.

Shen Ningru stared at Shen Qingru deadly, not believing that she could really make such a good poem, wasn't it the last time that the blind cat met a dead mouse? When did Shen Qingru become so talented?

Gu Ruochan was completely hit, losing to Shen Qingru once or twice, this girl's good self-feeling was broken, and she began to doubt her life.

Then, the blows came one after another.

The second is a girl surnamed Li, who writes poems in general. made Gu Ruochan breathe a sigh of relief and regain some confidence.

As a result, the third place is Wen Shu.

Wen Shu rarely appeared, and Gu Ruochan didn't care. I only know that it is Shen Qingru's cousin, who is very good-looking. However, it is useless to look good in the light, Gu Ruochan values the inside.

It's this person she thought was a vase, and the poem she made casually was actually better than hers!

Gu Ruochan was stunned!

Although she is conceited, she loses when she loses, and she never wants to lie about poetry. Losing to Shen Qingru, Gu Ruochan confessed. It's not that I haven't lost. But losing to Wen Shu, Gu Ruochan couldn't accept it from the bottom of his heart, this girl has seen it all, where did it come from? Why is there a random person, and the writing is better than her?

The game continues. In the fourth round, Xiao Yueli and Ruoxuan County Lord each won once.

At the end of the four rounds, it was getting late, and the banquet was about to begin. The crowd resumed their original seats.

A total of 27 people won the lottery in the four rounds, and 23 poems were written. There were four people who really couldn't think of it, and they were punished with three glasses of wine. The rest, for better or worse, is a complete poem in the end.

After repeated deliberation by many ladies, the final decision was unanimous. Shen Qingru is the first, Wen Shu is the second, Gu Ruochan is the third, Yunxi and Xiao Yueli are tied for the fourth, and the fifth is a girl surnamed Zhao.

That girl Shen Qingru is not familiar with, and she is also quite famous in Daxiao.

Shen Qingru and Xiao Yueli were both on the list, and the old princess was happy in her heart, and she waved her hand and rewarded her.

Originally, it was just a boring game to play, and there was nothing to add to it. The old princess spoke, since she is rewarded, she will be rewarded all, and she can't favor one over the other, and it seems that the palace is stingy.

Shen Qingru got a complete set of mutton fat jade jewelry. Wen Shu is a set of gold and jade. The third Gu Ruochan got a set of red gold.

Gu Ruochan didn't feel good when she held the prize, and she didn't lack this set of jewelry. This reward is more like laughing at her, and she considers herself the first talented woman in Daxiao every day, but what is the result? only to mix up a third place. Gu Ruochan's eyes were red, ashamed and angry, and he had to endure it.

Yunxi and Xiao Yueli are both mutton fat jade bracelets, plus a purple gold step shake. Miss Zhao only got a purple gold step.

All those who wrote poems were given a piece of jade pendant as encouragement.
