"What a mess you are talking about!"

Meng Yao looked disgusted, thinking that she had really overestimated Jiang Tunan.

"Just tell me if it rhymes or not."

Jiang Tunan looked indifferent. Mu Wuhuan said silently beside him,

“Actually, it rhymes.”

Everyone was silent for a while.

"This is just the beginning. Miss Jiang must not have adapted yet. Mr. Meng, please continue."

Qi Guanming came out to explain for Jiang Tunan and ease the current atmosphere.

Meng Jingchen was also stunned for a while before he reacted and continued to speak,

"Raise your glass to the bright moon."

"Return home with the moon and the hoe."

Jiang Tunan quickly took over. Xiao Mingrui was already speechless, and Xiao Mingli was also silent.

“The road ahead is long and difficult.”

"Hang oneself on a southeastern branch."

"The empty mountain after the rain."

"Hang oneself on a southeastern branch."

"When you look at a mountain from the side, it looks like a mountain range, and when you look at it from the front, it looks like a peak."

"Hang yourself on a tree in the southeast."

"I don't have the wings of a phoenix to fly together."

"Why not hang yourself on a southeast tree?"

Jiang Tunan was extremely confident and she felt that she had found the true meaning of poetry.

"Miss Jiang is really innocent and cute."

Meng Jingchen gave Jiang Tunan a speechless look, but Jiang Tunan pretended not to see it and kept smiling.

"It's just cheating. Even if Mr. Xiao is known for his talent, he can't let his cousin act like this."

Li Ze looked up with a cynical look. Xiao Mingli could only come out to explain.

"My cousin is indeed lacking in poetry and prose, but it's not as serious as Master Li said."

Li sneered.

"Second Young Master Xiao, everyone else praises you for your beauty, but I never thought that one day you would protect your cousin."

"Brother Li, what you said is wrong. I think what Mr. Xiao said makes sense. Besides, this is just an impromptu game. Why do you have to hold on to it, Brother Li?"

Mu Wuhuan said calmly.

Jiang Tunan didn't expect that this person would speak up for him.

"Mu Wuhuan? How dare you talk to me like that?"

Li Ze was a little angry and embarrassed, thinking that Mu Wuhuan, a scholar from a remote village, dared to go against him in public.

“I’m just expressing my opinion.”

There was no emotion on Mu Wuhuan's face.

"Mu Wuhuan, are you trying to please someone by speaking up for them? Yes, after all, you come from a humble background, so you really need to take shortcuts to succeed more easily."

Jiang Tunan was surprised. Is this Li Ze crazy? Why does he bite everyone he catches?

"Brother Li, be careful with your words."

Mu Wuhuan raised his voice slightly, but Li Ze thought that Mu Wuhuan was feeling guilty.

Li Ze was about to continue mocking Mu Wuhuan when he was interrupted by Jiang Tunan.

"That's all. It's just poetry. I can have as many as I want."

Li Ze heard this and found it a little funny.

"Ms. Jiang, although you may be unhappy with what I said, I still want to say that poetry and prose are not something you can use for entertainment. Many students are here today, so please don't hurt the hearts of those of us who have worked so hard to study."

What a big hat to put down.

"Mr. Li, right?"

Jiang Tunan walked up to Li Ze, who looked disdainful, arrogant as a scholar.

"It's down."

“Let me ask you, what is the meaning of your reading?”

Li Ze was stunned for a moment, then replied,

"Of course, it is to enter the court as soon as possible so that I can better serve His Majesty."

Jiang Tunan understood that it was all for the purpose of becoming a high-ranking official and gaining power. Jiang Tunan sneered, causing Li Ze to frown.

"Miss Jiang, don't you agree with what I said?"

Jiang Tunan's eyes were calm and he said seriously,

"It's not that I don't agree. Everyone has their own ideas, and I respect everyone's ideas."

"These are things a man should do. Miss Jiang is a woman, why would you talk about these things?"

Li Ze just thought Jiang Tunan was just trying to attract attention, but then Su Lanlan suddenly spoke up.

"Mr. Li, there is no distinction between men and women in terms of achievements. If it were not so, Your Majesty would not have established a girls' school. Are you questioning Your Majesty's decision with these remarks?"

Li immediately became respectful.

"Miss Su, that's not what I meant. Miss Su is certainly capable of this, and I admire talented women like Miss Su the most."

Jiang Tunan: A bootlicker.

"Then, in Miss Jiang's opinion, what is the purpose of studying?"

Meng Jingchen looked at Jiang Tunan with interest.

"Mr. Meng, have you ever heard of the Four Lines of Hengqu?"

"Oh? What is that?"

Hey, you haven't heard of it, right? That's right, because you haven't heard of it, that's why she pretends to be so arrogant.

"Establish a mind for the heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the living people, carry forward the unique teachings of the past saints, and create peace for all generations."

Meng Jingchen raised his left eyebrow slightly and began to carefully examine Miss Jiang in front of him.

Xiao Mingli also became excited. His cousin always said something that could touch him.

"Mr. Li, these words are for you."

Jiang Tunan stopped talking and didn't want to say more. Li Ze seemed to always uphold the integrity of scholars, but in fact, he wanted to cling to the powerful and rise to the top overnight.

It can be said that it is both appropriate and established.

"Miss Jiang is right. If you just stick to the rules, then the books you read will become dead books."

Qi Guanming looked at Jiang Tunan with admiration, and Jiang Tunan smiled back.

"What is character? Does adhering to certain rules of writing and using a few rhymes make a scholar's character? My poem is indeed not good, I admit it, but Mr. Li used it to attack cousin Mingli, is he really upholding the so-called character?"

Jiang Tunan said slowly and seriously,

"True character is to worry about the world before you worry about yourself, and be happy after the world is happy; to be mortal since ancient times, and to leave a loyal heart to shine in history; to be not afraid of being crushed to pieces, and to leave a clear name in the world."

Every word was so powerful, Jiang Tunan looked up at the sky.

"Someone once said that we should study for the rise of our country. So one after another, young people fought for the future of their country with their own blood. These people are truly righteous people. They will be remembered forever."

"well said!"

Qi Guanming looked at Jiang Tunan's figure, and there seemed to be a gleam in his eyes.

Xiao Mingrui curled his lips imperceptibly and said to Xiao Mingli,

"She was in trouble because of you, but she fought back."

Xiao Mingli smiled lightly and looked at Jiang Tunan with some different emotions in his eyes.

"I suddenly began to feel that her arrival was a good thing?"

Li Ze looked at the reactions of the crowd and was somewhat speechless. Leng Qingyan secretly scratched her palms until blood marks appeared on them. She really underestimated Jiang Tunan, who had caused her to be in the spotlight again today.

Jiang Tunan smiled calmly and said politely,

"I have participated enough in today's poetry gathering. I have indeed been out for long enough. I still have to prepare for the entrance exam. I will take my leave now."

Jiang Tunan turned around and wiped the sweat off her forehead. It was a close call. She almost couldn't hold it in. Fortunately, she had accumulated some sentences and was able to scare them.

Jiang Tunan: I'm just an ordinary porter.

"Wait, Miss Jiang!"

Qi Guanming shouted behind Jiang Tunan, and Jiang Tunan smiled helplessly.

"Prince, I am indeed sorry for today. Let's meet again next time if there is a chance."

Jiang Tunan wanted to leave, but Qi Guanming still tried to stop him.

"Prince, you are so enthusiastic, but I really have to go back. I want to go home for dinner."

Qi Guanming said awkwardly,

"No, I want to remind you that the ship hasn't even docked yet. How can you leave? Sit down for a while and wait for the ship to dock."

Jiang Tunan: ...
