Want to win the palace fight? Better to be crazy than to be idiotic!
Chapter 150 Don’t Be a Gambler
The heroine wins the poetry competition, which is a very typical plot in a happy novel.
It’s not like Su Feiran hasn’t thought about replicating it, but she definitely can’t do it on someone else’s birthday.
As the saying goes, "Qiuya is getting married, and you are singing and dancing here", it really doesn't look good.
Even though the Queen Mother said that all contestants should go all out, it was ultimately to please Concubine Xian. Judging from the results, if others wanted to show their strength, being the runner-up would be enough. In the end, after a hard fight, they unfortunately lost, and Concubine Xian won the championship. The two shook hands on the podium and everyone was happy.
Let's not talk about whether Su Feiran has the ability to win the championship. If she really overshadows Lin Xiuqing, even if Fu Han wins the bet, how will Su Feiran survive in the harem in the future? Although she won't be accused of "repaying kindness with enmity", she will definitely be judged as "lacking vision".
No!
Right now Fu Han and Li Zhanyang were at loggerheads with each other and the outcome was uncertain, so there was still room for her to mediate.
Even if Su Feiran tried her best to persuade the two to withdraw the bet.
Su Feiran was about to speak when Qin Fengan spoke happily.
"You two scholars are so elegant, how about you count me as a part of it?"
The whole house was in an uproar.
His Majesty the Emperor is also going to resign from his post, take off his clothes and run around the palace walls?
Qin Feng'an realized the ambiguity in his words and said, "Small bets are for fun, only the win or loss counts, the stakes are another matter. I am willing to bet 10,000 gold on Liu Ronghua to win the championship, Concubine Jia, are you willing to pay me for the bet?"
"Your Majesty is in a good mood, so I should accompany you and add some spice to this gambling game. Since Your Majesty adds gold, then I will add treasures, and I am willing to join the game with Changshun Red Agate."
Wu Jiayan smiled arrogantly and looked at Lin Xiuqing at the meeting with a look of disdain.
"However, I do not want to bet on Concubine Xian to win, so I will follow His Majesty and bet on Liu Ronghua."
Su Feiran cried out in her heart, "Sister Imperial Concubine, please take back your magical powers. She is really not worthy of them."
"Liu Ronghua," Wu Jiayan looked at Su Feiran coldly and shouted, "If you win the championship, I will make you a promise!"
As soon as these words came out, Su Feiran's head instantly swelled to twice its previous size - it was not right for her to win, and it was not right for her not to win! If she won the championship, it would inevitably help boost Concubine Jia's arrogance!
As soon as Qin Fengan and Wu Jiayan came on stage, the atmosphere in the entire poetry competition venue became restless.
The concubines in the audience were talking to each other, chatting animatedly. Xie Zhiqi was good at nothing else but joining in the fun and stirring up trouble. Seeing this, she stood up and shouted, "Your Majesty and the Imperial Concubine have both joined the game, how can we just stand by and watch? I don't have anything special, but I'm willing to bet on Sister Lin to win the championship with a whole month's worth of mung bean cakes! If Sister Lin loses to Sister Su, I'll give lots of mung bean cakes to all those who bet on Sister Su!"
Everyone rolled their eyes. Apart from Su Feiran, who else would be interested in this thing that Xie Zhiqi had staked out?
Although the stakes were not attractive, Xie Zhiqi's entry into the game set a precedent and aroused the gambling desire of the concubines.
"Then I will bet on a whole month's worth of rice cakes," Zeng Wenxin said with a smile, "and bet on Empress Xian to win."
After Zeng Wenxin, concubines joined the gambling game one after another, and the audience seats suddenly turned into a sea of gamblers.
"Interesting." Even Li Changsui was infected by the atmosphere of gambling, and said in the surprised eyes of everyone, "I am willing to bet that Empress Xian will win the championship, and I will use Songfengju as the stakes. If Liu Ronghua wins, I am willing to give Songfengju to you."
Li Changsui's bet was so high that everyone was shocked. Everyone suspected that Li Changsui had long wanted to move to another palace, which was why he made such a bet.
However, Songfengju was indeed a quiet and elegant place, and many concubines were very jealous of it. However, none of them really thought that Su Feiran could win this villa.
Han Tan had not expected the situation to develop like this. She cautiously turned her head to glance at the empress dowager and found that her face was as dark as a dark cloud. She sat in the judging panel without saying a word, watching coldly as the emperor and concubines engaged in the gambling business.
An Yuchen smiled and said, "Don't neglect others. Although I know that I am not qualified enough to win the championship, I am optimistic about Sister Wang Qian. I will also promise Sister Wang to help cheer us up."
Wang Qian quickly replied: "Then I am willing to bet on Sister An. I hope that Sister An will win the first prize and leave a good reputation for being able to write poems and compose verses."
The venue suddenly became noisy, everyone was scrambling to join the betting, everyone was betting on who would win, but no one bet on Ma Shuya.
Ma Shuya sighed softly. Since no one wanted to implicate her, she would rather not get involved.
Everyone was very enthusiastic about this gambling game. Even Lin Xiuqing's eyes were filled with anticipation when he looked at Su Feiran. Only Su Feiran forced a smile, but he had mixed feelings inside.
She was in pain, she was helpless, she was struggling, she was crying, she was spinning and jumping!
"Ahahaha...you are too kind to me..."
Things have turned out like this, Su Feiran can't afford to lose!
That's it,
People live their whole life, if they don’t fight for anything else, they fight for their dignity!
Lin Xiuqing raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and said with a smile: "Sister Liu Ronghua, since so many people are optimistic about you, I am also looking forward to competing with you."
These words were like a spark that suddenly fell into Su Feiran's heart, instantly igniting the straw that had been accumulating in her heart for a long time.
At this moment, Su Feiran felt a warmth in his heart, as if all his rationality and timidity were burned out in an instant, turning into a raging fire called impulse.
"I feel the same way!" Su Feiran responded in a clear and firm voice, "I would like to learn from Empress Xian about poetry!"
Han Tan struck while the iron was hot and hurriedly explained the rules of the game:
"This second game is called 'Pass the Flower', except that the game is not about flowers, but poems."
"Just like the last round, the five contestants need to form a circle. During the competition, the maid will first say the topic, then throw the embroidered ball in her hand to someone in the circle. That contestant will then need to compose the first half of a poem according to the topic, then throw the embroidered ball to another person, asking that person to compose the second half. If the poem is completed, the person who takes over will come up with another topic, and then throw the embroidered ball to someone else."
"This goes on and on. Whoever drops the hydrangea first or fails to finish the poem will be eliminated."
Su Feiran thought this rule was interesting, just like playing pairs and pairs of pairs.
"During the competition, no contestant may intentionally drop the hydrangea to embarrass other contestants. Nor may contestants ask obscure and tricky questions, otherwise they will be disqualified," Han Tan added.
Su Feiran was shocked. It turned out that winning the second game was not safe. The five of them still had a chance to get the mercury medal.
"Since everyone has a clear understanding of the rules, let's get started." Han Tan weighed the hydrangea in his hand and said the topic that had been prepared long ago, "The first topic is 'Warming Wine'."
