Chapter 380: Concubine Selection Ceremony 5
Immediately afterwards, the inner supervisors rushed to bring twenty-three pads, as for the girls.
Gonggong Su stood on the main hall, looked at the daughters of the important ministers standing in the hall with a smile and said, "Girls, please sit down." ”
"Yes." The other girls politely blessed themselves, and then sat down.
Ye Qiqi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly blessed his body in a good way, and sat down on the pu mat in a proper manner.
Mo Hanqing's gaze kept falling on Ye Qiqi's body.
He silently watched her salute a little awkwardly, and his heart couldn't help but soften.
"Your Majesty, everything is ready, please ask questions." Seeing that all the ladies had sat down, Gonggong Su turned around, bent over towards the emperor, and said with a smile.
"Hmm." The emperor nodded, swept around the hall with a kind gaze, and then cleared his throat and said: "It is the height of summer, and the lotus flowers are blooming in the pond of the imperial garden. ”
"Yes." The girls who were sitting on the pouch mat, after hearing the emperor's words, stood up one by one, saluted the emperor again, and then sat down again.
Ye Qiqi felt a little speechless.
Why every time the emperor says a word, they have to salute once, and they stand up for a while and sit down for a while, whether it's over or not.
However, although she thought so in her heart, for the debt of 800,000 taels of silver, she could only resign herself to standing up, saluting, and sitting down behind those girls.
"Alright, let's get started." Gonggong Su smiled at the girls in the hall.
As soon as Father-in-law Su's words fell, the other girls reached out and picked up the ink strips on the small desk and began to grind the ink in the inkstone.
In a matter of moments, several girls had already picked up the brush and began to write on the paper.
Mo Hanqing turned her gaze to Ye Qiqi, but saw her sitting in front of the desk, motionless, just staring at the white paper in front of her with her head down, not knowing what she was thinking.
The focus of Mo Xiuzhu, Ye Chengan, and Murong Hongyu is naturally also on Ye Qiqi.
Just seeing that she sat there for a long time without moving, several of them were a little anxious.
Mo Xiuzhu sat in the middle of the princes, his eyes kept glancing at Mo Hanqing, but the latter only cared about Ye Qiqi and didn't care about him at all.
Ye Chengan and Murong Hongyu sat together, but they stared at Ye Qiqi for a long time, and they didn't see her raise her hand to hold the pen, so Ye Chengan couldn't help but lower his voice towards Murong Hongyu and said, "Qiqi...... It shouldn't be that you can't even write a poem about lotus flowers, right?? ”
"I don't know." Murong Hongyu was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Actually, I don't know much about the poems about lotus flowers. ”
"Hey, you've been practicing martial arts since you were a child." Ye Chengan thought about opening his mouth to comfort Murong Hongyu for a few words, but as soon as he said this, he paused, and then said with a depressed expression: "Ye Qiqi has also practiced martial arts since she was a child, according to this view, she shouldn't really know a song, right?" Is she going to be brushed off in the first game? ”
"......" Murong Hongyu didn't know what to say for a while.
After the time of the incense, several girls had already written poems.
