Fu Huang: Husband, here is a ginseng

Chapter 300: Whoever flirts first is cheap

"Second sister-in-law, my sister has agreed. However, my sister has a request, and I hope Second sister-in-law can agree to it."

She is good at reciting poems and composing couplets.

Isn't it said that if you read 300 Tang poems, you can at least steal them even if you can't compose them?

She knows this song by heart and can recite it fluently, any song she wants to sing.

Since the Second Princess was so upset that she stretched out her face to hit her, she would not be polite. Not only would she hit her face, but she would also take away her money and anger her to death.

This is what it means to be the one who teases first.

"Princess Xiangyun, if you have any requests, please tell us."

The Second Princess thought about a countryman and couldn't think of any important request. Therefore, she said it straightforwardly.

Here it comes, the pit she dug, the Second Princess finally stepped into. Gao Zhijun thought happily in her heart.

"The second sister-in-law comes from a famous family, a family of scholars, I believe that reciting poems and composing couplets is child's play. Why not, the second sister-in-law and the emperor compete to see who writes the better poem. The loser not only has to give the other a thousand taels of gold, a manor, and two shops, but also has to say in front of everyone, 'I am a pig, my skills are not as good as others!'"

"I wonder if the Second Imperial Sister-in-law dares to compete?"

Gao Zhijun flattered the Second Princess at the beginning to make her happy and let her guard down, so that she could take the bait.

As soon as Princess Xiangyun said this, the whole hall fell silent. No one could believe that she would say such a thing and compete with the Second Princess.

How could she be so careless as to make a fool of herself here? After all, everyone knew that Princess Xiangyun came from the common people and it was impossible for her to have read books or know how to read. Comparing like this would undoubtedly be a humiliation for the other party.

Especially the punishment, saying that one is a pig and not as skilled as others, is undoubtedly more painful for a woman than killing her.

In ancient times, women valued their reputation the most, and if someone said in front of everyone that she was a pig, it would be like killing her.

This is what is called killing someone and destroying their heart.

The emperor and the queen were shocked and didn't understand why Gao Zhijun made such a decision. She could refuse on the spot, and they would help her and not let her suffer any grievances. Her achievements were more important than being a princess. Unless she was confident that she would win over the second princess, she would not be so stupid as to agree to such an unreasonable request.

The emperor suddenly became interested in his new daughter and felt that she would definitely bring him surprises.

Zhuang Die and Zhang Chan looked at Gao Zhijun with worry. They were very anxious. They didn't dare to persuade Gao Zhijun not to compete, fearing that it would bring disaster to her.

Gao Zhijun sensed the worry of her loved ones around her, and she used her eyes to reassure them, telling them not to worry.

Liu Ningchu and Wei Qingyan also looked at her anxiously. If this was not the imperial palace and the emperor and empress were not present, they would have wanted to come over to dissuade her.

Gao Zhijun also felt their worry and used her eyes to reassure them, asking them to trust her.

Murong Yuanbo really wanted to get angry. The Second Princess was going too far and even wanted to harm his precious daughter.

Although Huo Jinqian was also worried, he chose to believe it.

He felt his girl had many surprises waiting for him.

If she wasn't sure, she wouldn't say that.

So he comforted Hawking and others.

Then he looked through the screen, following the sound, to find where his girl was.

Perhaps they were in sync with each other. When Huo Jinqian looked at the women, Gao Zhijun also looked at the men through the screen.

Their eyes met, and even though there was a screen between them, they could still find each other's gaze.

No matter how far apart they are, two people in love can always find each other.

The second princess thought: Princess Xiangyun is a country girl, she has no chance to study, she can't possibly write poetry. Although she doesn't like to study, she comes from a noble family after all, and she knows a little bit, which is more than enough for her.

Therefore, the Second Princess agreed without thinking twice. She wanted to hear Princess Xiangyun say that she was a pig. She felt happy just thinking about it.

She seemed to have forgotten that how could a country girl who couldn't read learn medical skills? How could she make magic weapons? How could she grow high-yield crops? How could she make farm tools? Could it be that these were all very simple and easy to learn?

If one person is stupid, then they are all stupid. They can't even figure out such a simple question. No wonder ancient people were so backward.

"Okay, I agree! I will compete with you!"

The Second Princess said confidently.

"I and the ministers will make the judgment, and the Second Princess will come first."

The emperor wanted to help Gao Zhijun. He wanted to let the second princess come first, and then after she finished writing the poem, he would say that her poem was nonsense and declare Gao Zhijun the winner.

Gao Zhijun saw that the emperor intended to let her win, but she didn't need it. She wanted to win the second princess with her own ability to make a name for herself, so that she could suppress those young ladies who looked down on her. Otherwise, those young ladies would come to her for a contest today and tomorrow, and she would be very busy. She volunteered to spend her time treating the common people rather than dealing with those pretentious young ladies.

The Second Princess could not see what the Emperor was thinking. She only wanted to see Princess Xiangyun make a fool of herself, so how could she miss this opportunity?

She knew her own strengths and weaknesses very well, and only by pushing Princess Xiangyun out to make a fool of herself could she show her cleverness.

"Father, since Princess Xiangyun is so intelligent, why not let her come first? I have long wanted to see the princess's talents."

The Second Princess said.

Since the Second Princess said so, the Emperor couldn't help Gao Zhijun too much. He looked at her with some embarrassment, wanting to see what she would say.

Gao Zhijun was of course willing, and she immediately said, "Father, let me do it!"

"That's right!"

The emperor said.

"Today I will compete with the Second Imperial Sister-in-law. I will recite two poems and you can do whatever you want. As long as my two poems are not as good as yours, I lose. Otherwise, you lose. Do you think this is feasible?"

Gao Zhijun asked the Second Princess.

"Yes! Princess please!"

The Second Princess agreed, of course. A country girl who couldn't read a single word wanted to write two poems. It was just a fool's dream and a self-humiliation. Not to mention two poems, I'm afraid she couldn't even write one.

"Father, I am sorry for what I have done!"

"As you all know, I grew up in the countryside and dealt with land all day long, so I wrote a poem with the countryside as the theme. If it's not good, I hope you won't laugh at me!"

"When I hoe the field at noon, my sweat drips down to the ground. Who knows that every grain of rice on the table is the result of hard work?"

Gao Zhijun chanted a poem of pity for the peasants.
