The adopted daughter returns with a new face
Chapter 260 Poetry Contest
The moonlit night was as bright as day, and the Imperial Garden was filled with singing and dancing. The full moon was like a bright drop of water, adding a touch of freshness to the scenery of the Mid-Autumn Night. After the banquet was over, the palace servants brought Kongming lanterns, and the girls happily released Kongming lanterns and made wishes beside the lotus pond in the Imperial Garden.
Lan Rufeng also released one, and silently made a wish in his heart, to put an end to worldly affairs, find someone to have a passionate love affair with, and travel the mountains and rivers hand in hand.
Mu Rongchen stood behind Lan Rufeng, wanting to know what wish she made. He leaned over slightly and whispered in her ear, lowering his voice and asking: "Feng'er, what wish did you make?"
Lan Rufeng was suddenly tickled by Mu Rongchen's aura and couldn't help shivering all over. He raised his hand to rub his ears, turned around and looked at Mu Rongchen behind him without saying a word.
When the Queen saw everyone releasing Kongming lanterns, she asked Ye Mei to call everyone back to their seats and said, "Since it is Mid-Autumn Festival, we should naturally use the Mid-Autumn Moon as the theme. Anyone who is willing to participate in the competition should write a poem on the spot."
"I'll go first." As soon as the queen finished speaking, Lan Rufeng took the lead and everyone looked at her.
"Please don't look at me like that! In order to protect the things our two girls like from being snatched away, I won't be polite with you." Lan Rufeng said frankly that the things he wanted cannot be snatched away by others.
"Lan Rufeng, do you have any shame? If you don't want the reward to be snatched away by others, you have to get it with real talent and knowledge." Heng Huaian scolded Lan Rufeng in public.
"Second Young Master Heng, since I have chosen to take action, I will naturally not give anyone a chance." Lan Rufeng's arrogance caused dissatisfaction among countless people.
"Mr. Lan, is it possible that he has drunk too much?" Li Yunxi directly ridiculed Lan Rufeng's arrogance in public.
"Since Master Lan has taken the lead, let's begin!" The emperor also wanted to see if this fierce guy was arrogant.
Lan Rufeng smiled sadly in his heart, poured a glass of wine and cleared his throat. He did enough foreplay before looking up at the bright moon in the sky and muttering: "When will the bright moon appear? I raise my wine to ask the blue sky. I don't know what year it is in the palace in heaven. I want to ride the wind to go back, but I am afraid that the jade buildings are too cold up there..."
The emperor and everyone else could not help being amazed as they listened to Lan Rufeng's intermittent poems. They could not help clapping and praising her poems after she finished one. This made the girls who wanted to show off very angry.
"What a wonderful thought! I wish you a long life, and we can enjoy the beauty of the moon together even though we are thousands miles apart." This is Mu Rongchen's favorite line in the entire poem.
"This poem is perfectly written and appropriate for the occasion. What a great poem!" Chen Xue couldn't help but praise it.
Lan Rufeng had a smile on his face, and in his heart he secretly thanked the great poet Su Shi repeatedly, hoping that he would not blame the younger generation for learning from him.
"I've done my work. Anyone who can defeat me, please start your performance!" As soon as Lan Rufeng's arrogant words came out, the whole audience fell silent. After a long silence, the laughter of Feng Qingwu and Chen Siyao was heard. This slap in the face came too quickly.
The Queen Mother watched Lan Rufeng write a poem and slapped the faces of the girls who wanted to show off. She originally thought that she was just good at martial arts, but she didn't expect that she was also very talented.
In the entire imperial garden, besides Lin Ruyan, her two children, Feng Qingwu and Chen Siyao, who were the happiest, Mu Rongchen was also very happy.
"Mr. Lan, since no one has accepted the challenge, you can choose the reward yourself!" The Queen asked Lan Rufeng to choose the gift himself.
"Empress, I want the pair of jade bracelets this round." Lan Rufeng smiled and took Chen Siyao's hand, walked straight to the table where the prizes were placed, took the pair of jade bracelets and gave them to Chen Siyao.
Chen Xue and his son and Chen Shuchen's family looked at Lan Rufeng and saw that she had directly given the jade bracelet to their daughter Yao'er. They all sighed that she was really good to Yao'er.
"Thank you, Brother Lan! You are so nice." Chen Siyao smiled happily, holding the box and holding Lan Rufeng's hand, they sat back to their seats, which made the girls jealous.
"Doesn't Mr. Lan like drinking? How about making wine the theme of this round?" Mu Rongchen looked at Lan Rufeng, wanting to see what unknown side of her she had.
"Prince Rong, I don't care. There is nothing I cannot get that I want. I am the last one to come this time, so please go in!" No one dared to question Lan Rufeng's arrogant words this time.
"Ladies, please start according to Prince Rong's instructions!" the emperor gave an order.
Chu Enyu was the first to come up, her red lips parted, "After three rounds of drunkenness, I was in a dream, half in the fairyland and half in a hazy state. Chang'e danced shyly with a smile, and brought out flower wine to welcome me."
Li Yunxi was not willing to be left behind. He looked at his cousin and muttered: "The breeze lends me a pot of wine, I lie drunk among the flowers and complain about the whole building. I raise my cup and ask the moon in the clouds, can I be in love with you till I grow old?"
When Liang Zichu heard his cousin's poem, he felt sad.
"Li Yunxi confessed her love to Liang Zichu. Could it be that my theory of incest scares them off and makes them not dare to get married?" Lan Rufeng thought to himself. He secretly glanced at Liang Zichu standing beside him and saw that he was drinking without any reaction.
Everyone became more clear-headed. There had been no progress in Li Yunxi and Liang Zichu's marriage, so something must have happened.
The girls couldn't help it, and they wrote poems one after another. After five or six girls finished, no one else continued. Everyone's eyes naturally fell on Lan Rufeng, waiting to see what she would come up with to outshine the others.
Lan Rufeng got up with a glass of wine, walked to the middle of the garden, looked up at the sky, pretended to be brewing and said in a loud voice: "Don't you see, the water of the Yellow River comes from the sky, rushes to the sea and never returns. Don't you see, the white hair in the mirror hall, which was black in the morning and turned white in the evening.
When life is good, you should enjoy it to the fullest, and don't let the golden cup face the moon in vain. " Lan Rufeng said this, paused for a moment, raised the wine glass in his hand, pretended to salute the bright moon in the sky, and continued to recite. The pauses and gestures made everyone tense up and listen carefully, and the more they listened, the more excited they became.
As soon as Lan Rufeng finished reading the poem, the applause in the Imperial Garden almost shook down the bright moon in the sky, making her feel very embarrassed, but she smiled ostentatiously on her face, which made the girls so angry that they went crazy in their hearts.
"Unique in the history, unique in the history!" Chen Xue praised: "Mr. Lan, why are you not a man? Alas! What a pity."
Everyone was speechless when they heard what Chen Xue said. What he meant was that since Lan Rufeng was a man, he should marry Chen Siyao to her.
Lin Ruyan and her two children are the most proud. They admire Feng'er's martial arts and talent. Yue Jingyun feels that Lan Rufeng is like the bright moon in the sky, who is beyond his reach.
"The princess is a man of both civil and military talents, and Prince Rong is a man of both civil and military talents. They are a perfect match made in heaven." The Minister of Rites Yu Zongze flattered with a smile.
The Minister of Revenue Wu Ming also followed suit and several other ministers echoed him. Mu Rongchen was very happy to hear this and looked at Lan Rufeng with tenderness in his eyes.
The Queen Mother looked at her son who was staring at Lan Rufeng, and then looked at the Queen as she awarded the red coral prize to her. She took it back and gave it directly to her granddaughter. She began to feel conflicted.
Heng Huaiyue watched Lan Rufeng pamper Qingwu and Chen Siyao, and suddenly felt a little jealous.
The Queen gave the remaining three prizes to Chu Enyu, Li Yunxi and Wu Yiran according to their best poems, and announced the end of tonight's moon-viewing banquet.
The emperor asked Zhao An to call his younger brother and Lan Rufeng, and Lin Ruyan and her son, and asked everyone to leave the banquet.
