After her luck was taken away, she fell in love with the woman who traveled through time.

Xu Shengsheng was angry...

How can it be so understated?

[How could this be! Isn't this a unique collection in the world? Besides, this is the wisdom of my ancestors, where did they know it from? ]

[You were the one who leaked it! ]

This cannot be blamed on Xu Shengsheng. Only she and "Heroine Halo" knew about the collection of ancient people, and she did not tell anyone else.

So what was leaked out was just this!

[Zi——]

Xu Shengsheng received an electric shock to the heart.

She covered her chest, thinking that as long as her favorability points did not drop to -1000, this "heroine halo" would only punish her slightly.

Xu Shengsheng plucked up the courage to continue venting his dissatisfaction!

[You tricked me! You won't let me speak! ]

[Warning! Please be careful with your words regarding the "Heroine's Halo"! ]

[I already knew you had other thoughts. You didn't really come to help me. If you were wholeheartedly helping me, how could I have made so many mistakes in the plot? ]

[Since the first time I walked through the plot on Heqian Street, it seemed like I had the upper hand every time, but in fact, I was the victim! ]

[If you ask me, you are just a troublemaker! ]

Although he felt relieved, the pain in his heart became unbearable as she cursed him one after another.

Xu Shengsheng curled up on the ground, twitching in pain.

Damn it, why did she get such a severe punishment?

This is just revenge!

When the noble ladies nearby saw Xu Shengsheng suddenly fall to the ground and foam at the mouth, they all took a few steps back, fearing that she would try to extort money from them.

Xu Shengsheng finally gave in.

[I was wrong, please stop punishing me...]

If she was shocked again, she would die on the spot.

After hearing her admit her mistake, the "Heroine Halo" stopped the punishment.

Xu Shengsheng leaned sideways and took deep gulps of fresh air. After several minutes, he finally recovered a little.

With sweat on her forehead, she lifted her weak eyelids and looked at the noble ladies gathered in a circle.

The scene was awkward.

The muscles on his face trembled unconsciously a few times, and Xu Shengsheng supported himself with his elbows and stood up tremblingly.

He explained to Lv Jinglan: "Empress, please believe me, these poems must be my original works! These ladies must have memorized them after hearing me say them just now."

"Really, really, it must be like this!" Xu Shengsheng didn't care about her embarrassed appearance, she explained hysterically to the queen.

This is a crucial moment for her to become famous in the capital!

How could it be ruined!

"If Her Majesty the Queen still has doubts, you can ask a few more noble ladies to come up with questions! Or... or Her Majesty the Queen can come up with the questions yourself!"

Lu Jinglan looked at Xu Shengsheng, who seemed to have suffered some great injustice. She shook her head slightly and sighed softly.

"I also have a copy of the collection they mentioned."

"what?!"

Xu Shengsheng's pupils trembled!

Xu Shengsheng grabbed the horse and dug his toes into the ground, staring at Lu Jinglan with wide eyes.

The nanny behind Lu Jinglan coughed twice. Xu Shengsheng's burning face was still hurting. She immediately lowered her voice, still unable to believe her ears: "The Queen... has it too?"

"Yes." Lu Jinglan responded frankly.

Lu Jinglan asked the nanny to take out an old book. She browsed through the poems on the book. After reading a page, her white fingers would turn the page immediately.

She said with mixed feelings: "I have studied poetry and books for decades, and I think I am experienced and well-read... But compared with this collection of ancient books, I am really ashamed, ashamed..."

"When the great roc rises with the wind, it soars up to ninety thousand miles..."

Lu Jinglan was absorbed in reading the collection of poems above.

The noble ladies in Yuhua Garden listened to Lü Jinglan reading poems vividly. Without exception, they also immersed themselves in it with Lü Jinglan and could not extricate themselves for a long time.

Even Li Lan, who had never been fond of writing, sighed after hearing the frontier poems read by Lu Jinglan.

Xu Shengsheng stared at the scene in astonishment.

It was not until Lu Jinglan stopped talking and it took a long time for everyone to come to their senses.

Then, Lu Jinglan looked at Xu Shengsheng who was standing blankly in the garden with a deep gaze.

Lu Jinglan said, "Miss, do you have anything else to say?"

"I...I want to read this book..."

Lu Jinglan agreed to Xu Shengsheng's request.

Xu Shengsheng flipped through the poems above. These poems were exactly the same as the ones she got from the "Heroine Halo". Even the order of the poems were the same!

Xu Shengsheng took a breath of cold air.

It turns out that what those ladies said was true, there really is a book...

Xu Shengsheng was so angry that he was stunned.

Holding the collection with shaking hands, Xu Shengsheng asked, "I dare to ask the Queen, where did you get this collection of ancient people's works?"

Seeing her trembling, Lv Jinglan kindly explained, "This collection of ancient works was accidentally obtained by me not long ago. It is said to have come from another world... I don't know the details."

Xu Shengsheng: “…”

"The girl is so young and yet she can use these poems so fluently. She has made great efforts."

She felt mixed emotions and could only admit her mistake in this situation.

If you deny it... the evidence is all there, and continuing to defend yourself will only bring shame upon yourself.

Her face twitched unconsciously for a few times, and Xu Shengsheng knelt on the ground, kowtowed and admitted her fault: "It's my fault... I shouldn't use the ancients' collection to pretend it's my own original work..."

She still didn't want to let go of this key point that made her famous.

If you miss this time, you will have to wait until the beginning of autumn for the next one...

"Please give me another chance, Queen..."

"I want to prove myself!"

As soon as Xu Shengsheng said this, the noble ladies in Yuhua Garden became unhappy.

It was a great blessing for a girl who made pastries to have the opportunity to show her talents with them, but she not only did not show her true ability, but used some sneaky tricks to try to deceive the world and take the lead! Now that her clumsy tricks have been exposed, this person is so shameless that she wants another chance?

How could we just let this lying woman go?

A brave lady was about to go forward and tell the emperor about this! But the queen acted as if nothing had happened. She said to Xu Shengsheng, "If you really want to prove that you are a 'talented woman', I have a way."

"What method?"

Lu Jinglan looked towards Liang Tan's direction——

"Let Liang Tan try you!"

"Let Liang Tan try you!"

Xu Shengsheng followed the Queen's gaze and fell on Liang Tan.

The queen said with a smile: "The daughter of the Liang family is a famous talented woman in Jiangnan City, and you are also from Jiangnan City, so it is most appropriate for her to play chess with you."

"Yes, let alone in Jiangnan City, I have heard that Liang Tan is unparalleled in talent even in the capital. If this woman really beats Liang Tan, then I will admit that she is a truly talented woman."

"But what if Liang Tan is too soft-hearted towards her? I heard that..."

"What did you hear?"

Several noble ladies began to discuss among themselves in low voices.

In the end, the eyes of the few people who had eaten the big melon shifted between Liang Tan and Xu Shengsheng.

Although Xu Shengsheng didn't hear what they were saying specifically, she knew they were talking about her being Liang Su's illegitimate daughter...

Xu Shengsheng's face turned red as she looked at Liang Tan.

Liang Tan remained calm and composed, sitting quietly in his seat.

[Your family scandal has been discussed by others, how can you still sit still? Are you still the legitimate daughter of the Liang family? ]

[I really feel sorry for your father for raising such a heartless and ungrateful daughter like you.]

Xu Shengsheng only dared to complain about Liang Tan in her heart.

But Xu Shengsheng didn't dare to say a word.

Seeing Liang Tan coming into the garden, Xu Shengsheng was so frightened that he dared not even breathe.

Liang Tan stood next to Xu Shengsheng, and she bowed to the two nobles in the garden in an orderly manner.

Lu Jinglan looked at Liang Tan's cold smile and said, "Liang Tan, I will ask you a question. You and this girl should answer it together. The one who gives the best answer will win."

Liang Tan bowed slightly.

……

Lu Jinglan asked several questions in a row and finally chose Xu Shengsheng to win.

Liang Tan lost three games in a row and chose to admit defeat: "Liang Tan is not good enough in learning. Liang Tan admits defeat."

When Lu Jinglan heard Liang Tan admit defeat, she comforted Liang Tan a few words: "Your knowledge is second to none among the noble ladies of your age. You are truly a leader..."

"But..." Lu Jinglan changed the subject, "But I still prefer this girl's imaginative and unexpected answer."

When Liang Tan heard this, her face remained calm and she replied, "Liang Tan understands."

She understood, of course she understood.

At some inadvertent moment just now, the queen was attracted by the aura of the time-traveling girl, and developed a liking and preference for her for no reason.

The Queen deliberately called her name and asked her to play chess with Xu Shengsheng, just to give Xu Shengsheng a way out and let the matter pass by lightly.

Liang Tan knew the ending from the beginning.

"That's good, Liang Tan. I believe you will achieve great things in the near future."

"So I declare that this girl defeated Liang Tan from Jiangnan City and is truly a talented woman."

As soon as Lu Jinglan finished speaking, the noble ladies in Yuhua Garden immediately fell into noisy discussions.

funny!

Anyone with a little bit of common sense could tell that, for every question asked by the Queen, Liang Tan’s more rigorous answers were obviously more palatable, and that Xu Shengsheng... was just joking!

When the Queen discovered that Xu Shengsheng had misused the masterpieces of ancient people, she not only did not punish her, but even gave her a chance to prove herself.

The Queen is deliberately showing partiality to Xu Shengsheng for no reason!

The noble lady in the lotus pink dress couldn't help herself any longer. She stepped forward and knelt before the queen, "Your Majesty, I have something to say."

-

Lu Jinglan looked at the indignant young lady, recognized her features, and said, "You are the daughter of the Meng family, right..."

Meng Yu was furious, her tone full of dissatisfaction: "Yes, I am the daughter of the fourth-rank Wenyuan Pavilion Political Scholar Meng Yu."

"What do you have to say?"

"This woman is so bold and opportunistic, how can we let her go!"

"According to you, how should we deal with this girl?"

"This woman deceived the Queen and the Imperial Concubine. Her crime is unforgivable and she deserves death!"

Lv Jinglan glanced at the pitiful Xu Shengsheng, and suddenly felt a trace of pity in her heart. Lv Jinglan tried to smooth things over: "I see that this girl is still young, and I think she wants to show off..."

"Your Majesty, this is a precedent. There will be more and more people like this in the future! If you don't punish them severely, where will your authority in the palace be?"

Lv Jinglan listened to Meng Yu's sharp words. Although she was not a competitive person, she still felt embarrassed to be said like that by a little noblewoman in public. Lv Jinglan's cold voice rang out: "Meng Yu, are you threatening me?"

"Does this palace need your consent to decide who to punish and who not to punish?"

"In my opinion, this little girl just made an unintentional mistake. Why make a big fuss? Don't say anything more. I will pretend that I didn't hear your nonsense."

Meng Yu looked at the queen, then at Xu Shengsheng. She laughed sarcastically, "Are you trying to be partial to me for no reason, Queen?"

As soon as these words came out, the maid behind Queen Lü Jinglan suddenly jumped up: "Meng Yu, how dare you! How dare you make up stories about the Queen!"

"You are the one who is so bold!" Meng Yu pointed at the nanny's face and said, "My father is a fourth-rank official. Even if you belong to the Queen, you are just a lowly servant. How can you be so mean to me?"

"Miss Meng, I am indeed not as good as the Scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, but you should look at the owner before you beat the dog! In front of the Queen, even if the Scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion comes, he must bow respectfully to the Queen!"

"Not to mention you, Miss Meng, who has no official position."

"You spoke rudely to the Queen, you should be punished!"

Meng Yu listened to the nanny's harsh voice and smiled coldly: "Meng Yu is wrong and should be punished! But I lied first, and the queen was partial to me later. Is it true that I am not at fault at all?"

The nanny saluted in the direction of Empress Lü Jinglan, and then she said loudly to Meng Yu: "The Empress's majesty is sacred and inviolable. Whatever the Empress says is the truth. Do you dare to refute it?"

Meng Yu was so angry that she glared at Xu Shengsheng angrily.

Then, Meng Yu knelt on the ground, her body facing the direction of Imperial Noble Consort Li Lan, and kowtowed: "Please, Imperial Noble Consort, handle this fairly!"

-

Li Lan was watching a play, and she didn't expect Meng Yu to suddenly mention her...

Li Lan coughed twice, then looked at Meng Yu seriously: "This matter..."

She was stunned for a moment, then lowered her voice: "Sister Queen has already made the decision on this matter..."

Meng Yu really couldn't imagine that Li Lan would stay out of this matter like this: "Is the Imperial Concubine really going to just sit there and watch?"

Li Lan felt uncomfortable after hearing Meng Yu's words, but there was nothing she could do. She still had to pay attention to the impact, so Li Lan didn't say anything.

Meng Yu was not a fool. She had a clear mind and instantly understood what Li Lan was worried about.

Now even the Imperial Concubine has chosen to stay out of it, who else can control this woman!

Are we really going to watch her do something that conceals the truth and get away with it?

Meng Yu refused to accept!

Meng Yu said mockingly, "I never thought that the noble concubine who hates evil would one day have to look at other people's expressions."

Li Lan was provoked by her and instantly lost her temper: "What are you talking about? Whose eyes do I need to look at?"

"The Imperial Concubine knows it very well."

If Li Lan had not been tricked by the emperor into entering the palace, she would have become a famous chivalrous woman in the world.
