Chapter 32: A woman's lack of talent is virtue

"This first lantern riddle is an anagram, half full and half empty, girl, guess it." The old woman smiled and told the riddle.

Before An Ruqing could speak, a scholar next to her took the lead to answer: "I know, it must be half a word!" ”

"No, it should be Jiangzi!" An Ruqing hesitated for a moment and said what she thought.

"The girl guessed correctly, this second one is also an anagram, twenty-eight beauties."

"It's a wonderful word!"

"The third anagram is half written about Jiangcun's sorrowful eyebrows."

"It's deep letters."

Soon, half of the fifty lantern riddles were guessed, almost all of them were guessed by An Ruqing alone, and even a few readers were not as good as her.

"Whose family is this girl? It's amazing! must have read poetry and books since childhood, although she is a daughter, she is not inferior to a boy at all! An old man next to him stroked his beard and praised.

This girl alone can compare to so many scholars.

"A woman's lack of talent is virtue, and virtue is more important than talent." There was a defeated scholar who was unwilling, and his words were full of sourness.

An Ruqing was used to his faults, and looked people up and down: "A man is virtuous and talented, you can't even guess a lantern riddle with me, is it that he has no virtue and no talent?" ”

"You! Sure enough, the ancients said well, only women and villains are difficult to raise, and I don't care about you in general. The scholar blushed, and said that he couldn't say anything, and he was angry and wanted to leave.

The people around him couldn't get used to his pedantic bookish anger, so they directly ridiculed him.

"A manly man, it's just a riddle, I can't afford to lose, it's a shame!"

"If you're afraid of losing, then sit at home and come out for what? Is it possible that you still think that others are going to let you? ”

After a few words, the scholar's face turned even redder, and he ran faster than a rabbit, and soon disappeared into the crowd.

After he left, the old woman continued to talk about the riddle for everyone to guess, and for a while she laughed and laughed, so it was not lively.

It just so happened that Mo Nanchen and Luo Wenxi walked here, originally planning to watch the excitement, but who knew that they saw An Ruqing in the crowd.

"That's ...... Princess? Mo Nanchen couldn't believe his eyes.

The radiant person in front of him is really An Ruqing, who was going to marry him with a dead face?

How can a person change so much?

He has to admit that the current An Ruqing is really charming.

"Lord Wang!" Luo Wenxi noticed the appreciation in his eyes, and was angry and anxious, eager to cover his eyes.

The capital is so big, and there are people coming and going on the street, why did the three of them meet by chance?

Eighty percent of it was An Ruqing's deliberate calculation, in order to behave well in front of the prince.

As for the people next to her, she must have found them on purpose, and she had to go over and demolish her!

Luo Wenxi hugged Mo Nanchen's arm tightly, and said coquettishly: "Lord, the concubine also likes to guess lantern riddles, why don't we go over and have a look?" ”

She has read so many books, and it is not too easy to compare with An Ruqing.

Mo Nanchen nodded and walked over with her.

"Sister, I also like to guess lantern riddles, why don't we have a competition?" Luo Wenxi looked at An Ruqing with a provocative expression.

This little trick of hers can deceive others, but she will definitely not deceive herself, and after exposing her, see how she still deceives others!

An Ruqing guessed her thoughts, and agreed: "Okay, my sister is kindly invited, how can I refuse?" ”

The old woman's remaining riddles here are all difficult, and after a few rounds, Luo Wenxi didn't even guess any of them correctly, and his face became more and more ugly.

She is here to slap An Ruqing's face, not to send her face over to hit her!

Seeing that An Ruqing was about to win, a man suddenly walked over next to him, standing next to An Ruqing: "The girl is really amazing." ”

Hearing this familiar voice, An Ruqing glanced back, and her eyes lit up in an instant, this is the benefactor who saved herself and Xiaoying last time!

"Benefactor, are you also here to guess the lantern riddle?"

"I just wanted to join in the fun, but I didn't expect to meet acquaintances." The smile in the eyes of the third prince deepened, and he was suddenly a little curious about the identity of this woman.

There are only a few lantern riddles left, and the two of them are laughing and laughing while guessing the riddle together, winning the final reward.

This scene deeply stimulated Luo Wenxi, she simply shouted, and called Mo Nanchen next to her: "Husband, look at my sister, I have talked and laughed with others, this should be my sister's friend, but my sister is married after all, and some things should be paid attention to, in case people misunderstand, it will not be good!" ”

She almost tattooed the four big characters of "not abiding by women's ways" on An Ruqing's face now.

Mo Nanchen walked over and took a look, and recognized the three princes at a glance, where is there anything Luo Wenxi said.

When the so-called enemies saw each other, their eyes were red, and the atmosphere between the two people became tense from time to time.

"Third prince, if you are lonely and lonely, then report to the emperor to marry a wife as soon as possible, why bother staring at my princess?" Mo Nanchen had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

He's very upset right now.

An Ruqing is obviously her own princess!

"King Qi laughed, I have met your princess before, and it is an old acquaintance." The third prince shook his head, a little disappointed in his heart.

I finally met an interested girl, who turned out to be Princess Qi.

He deliberately added to the blockage of Mo Nanchen, and deliberately proposed to go to the restaurant to eat together: "King Qi, just have a meal, you won't be so stingy, right?" ”

"Naturally not." Mo Nanchen had a cold face: "Since the third prince is hungry, then I will be the east and go to Mingyue Tower for a few drinks." ”

Mingyue Tower is a famous restaurant in Beijing, the taste is very good, the only drawback is that the price is expensive, and the common people don't even dare to think about it.

The four of them came to the restaurant together and chose the best Tianzi box.

"King Qi, I haven't married a wife yet, and you already have two princesses at the same time, which is really enviable." After three rounds of drinking, the third prince looked at Luo Wenxi, chuckled, and deliberately emphasized the two words at the same time.

A few days after King Qi's wedding, he accepted the side concubine into the door, and this matter had already spread throughout the capital.

Although it is the norm for men to have three wives and four concubines, how can they accept concubines so quickly?

His behavior was that he didn't give any face to the prime minister and An Ruqing.

"Don't be envious, I don't like the prince at all, I have no feelings for him at all, I just occupy the position of the princess, for him, no matter who he marries, it's the same." An Ruqing didn't give Mo Nanchen face at all.

I am not cheap, how can I focus on a man who doesn't love me?

It's better to explain this kind of thing clearly, otherwise rumors will spread in the capital that she can't live without Mo Nanchen, and she won't die of depression!

The third prince didn't expect her to say this, and he was stunned for a moment, and Mo Nanchen sat on the side, his face was so dark that he could drip ink.
