After the two men finished talking, they left quickly.

Ouyang Jingye looked puzzled, "What are they going to do?"

"I don't know." Gu Chang replied indifferently.

"Then why did you pull me to hide?!" Ouyang Jingye raised his eyebrows.

Gu Chang patted his face and said, "You'll know soon."

Ouyang Jingye:... (a swear word)

He was still a little surprised that Xu Yuya could play with Zhang Xingye.

Poetry Contest in the Garden——

Participants need to freely create poems based on the word "chrysanthemum".

Now many people go on stage to write poetry, but most of them are extremely mediocre.

Zhang Xingye ordered Qi Yan in a cold voice, "This is your last chance. If you don't want your brother to die, then let me win the game."

Qi Yan looked at him with eyes covered by black gauze, with no expression on his face.

this is the last time.

"What are you looking at?! Tell Yuya the poem when you're done!"

Qiyan said "hmm" expressionlessly.

Xu Yuya was originally some distance away from Zhang Xingye and the others. When she suddenly heard a cold female voice, she was stunned for a moment, but after she finished listening, the smile on her face widened a little.

Princess Li glanced at Fu Qianzhou, who was happily chatting with a young girl below, and felt a little helpless.

Seeing Xu Yuya standing out in the crowd in her bright red dress, he casually pointed at her and asked, "Why don't you write a poem?"

Princess Li had already planned that Xu Yuya would not be able to write any more brilliant poems, and she just wanted to liven up the atmosphere.

But Xu Yuya went on stage very confidently and said, "Then I will show you my ugly side." These humble words were completely different from the expression on her face.

Seeing this, Princess Li was also a little excited.

When Gu Chang and Ouyang Jingye arrived at the garden, they saw Xu Yuya reciting a poem about chrysanthemums.

The artistic conception of this poem is very unique, and it won the applause of everyone for a while. Even Princess Li couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth slightly.

"You wrote a good poem. You can stay here later."

Xu Yuya's face lit up with joy, "Thank you, Princess."

Hearing this, Ouyang Jingye's face turned bitter: o(╥﹏╥)o He doesn't want it...

"Aunt, I have a friend who also wants to write a poem!" An inappropriate voice suddenly sounded.

Xu Yuya's face froze. She looked down and saw Fu Qianzhou raising his hand. Xu Ruowei, who was standing next to her, had an ugly look on her face.

Xu Ruowei had planned to speak about it later, but Fu Qianzhou took it upon himself to speak for her.

Xu Ruowei, who had dragged someone onto her friend blacklist, bowed to Princess Li and said, "I'm not talented, but I'm willing to give it a try."

Sincere attitude and dignified temperament.

It was completely different from Xu Yuya's behavior just now.

Princess Li smiled and said, "Don't worry about winning or losing, just have fun."

But Fu Qianzhou said again, "Aunt, I'm tired of hearing about chrysanthemums. Why don't you change the words?"

The two people standing on the stage looked at Fu Qianzhou, who was watching the fun and enjoying the trouble.

Gu Chang frowned slightly as he watched from the side.

What role is this Asazu? A supporting actress? It doesn't look like it. Digging a hole, digging two holes at once.

Princess Li became interested. "Then what word should we change?"

Fu Qianzhou smiled. "I heard that Prince Yu is here today. Everyone knows that Prince Yu is the most famous person in the capital. I would like to ask you two to write a poem about Prince Yu. What do you think?"

Gu Chang had a blank expression: Nothing.

Ouyang Jingye was shocked: What does she want to do?

Xu Yuya gritted her teeth: Damn little bitch!

Xu Ruowei:!!!

If Prince Yu doesn't write a good poem, it will be a serious crime.

Xu Yuya was silent for a few seconds and began to pace back and forth to hide her inner anxiety.

Xu Ruowei stood there with a calm expression.

Gu Chang noticed that Zhang Xingye was saying something to Qi Yan below, and then Qi Yan's lips moved slightly.

Xu Yuya's eyes lit up on the stage, and she began to recite a poem with Prince Yu as the background.

The poem is well written.

But I always feel that it is flattery... and a very bold kind of flattery.

Everyone present could tell that this poem was just a way of praising Prince Yu. It couldn't really be called a doggerel, but it lacked a certain flavor.

There are so many poems praising Prince Yu in the capital, but this one written by Xu Yuya only sounds like two words.

awkward.

For a moment, the garden was extremely silent.

Xu Yuya also realized something and her face looked very ugly.

Xu Ruowei had seen enough of Xu Yuya's embarrassment, and her pink lips curled slightly, "I know I'm not talented. Your Highness Prince Yu's elegance is well known in the capital, but your elegance cannot be expressed in words, let alone poetry."

Princess Li was stunned for a moment, then clapped her hands gently, "Not bad."

Xu Yuya, who was standing by, couldn't help but ask sharply, "She hasn't even written a poem, how come?!"

Princess Li frowned, "Whose family are you from? Why are you so ignorant of etiquette?"

"Don't be angry, Princess. This is my second sister." Xu Ruowei only said this, as if to give Xu Yuya some mercy.

Princess Li asked Xu Ruowei, "My dear, where are you from?"

"My name is Xu Ruowei, and my father is the Minister of Rites Xu Jianli." Xu Ruowei smiled softly.

Gu Chang patted Ouyang Jingye's shoulder, and the other party subconsciously turned his head to look at him, with some confusion in his eyes. Gu Chang just gave him a sympathetic look.

Ouyang Jingye was almost annoyed by Gu Chang's attitude of wanting to say something but not saying it, "What do you want to say?"

"I'm just sighing that your mother has found you another good match." Gu Chang saw that Princess Li's affection for the heroine was constantly rising, and he glanced at Jin Tiaodu.

35%

Gu Chang: Why is it just this?

"Do you want to marry her?" Gu Chang suddenly asked.

Ouyang Jingye looked at Xu Ruowei, with a complicated expression on his handsome face, "I remember she is engaged to my eldest brother now." He didn't dare to be with a woman who was engaged to his eldest brother.

Gu Chang didn't say anything else. He always felt that this matter was not over yet, especially since there was Fu Qianzhou involved.

Sure enough, Fu Qianzhou mentioned the topic of writing poetry again, as if he had a real problem with writing poetry.

The word I want to use in this poem is moon.

Xu Ruowei lived up to everyone's expectations and easily composed a poem with the word "moon" as the theme.

The poem was quickly copied into several copies and distributed to the people below for reading.

Ouyang Jingye also had a copy in his hand.

But after he finished reading this poem, his brows furrowed deeply.

He turned his head and said to the servant behind him in a serious tone, "Xiao Si, go and get the rare book on the table in my study."

After Ouyang Jingye finished speaking, he walked to Princess Li, bent down, and whispered a few words to her.

After hearing this, Princess Li's eyes darkened. "Are you sure about this?"

"Pretty sure."

Xu Ruowei, who was still standing on the stage, felt vaguely uneasy, but she couldn't tell why.

Fu Qianzhou wanted to watch the fun for a while longer, but someone suddenly grabbed his wrist and pulled him out.

She saw Fu Wenyuan's eyes filled with anger, but said nothing, with a faint smile on her face.

Fu Wenyuan pulled her to the corner of the garden and suddenly let go of her hand.

"Why are you so angry?" Fu Qianzhou rubbed his wrist.

"You're still asking! Go back now." Fu Wenyuan was almost mad at her attitude and was very angry.

Normally, he would not show it even if he was angry, but it was different when facing Qianzhou. This man always made him angry and irritable.

Fu Qianzhou curled his lips and said, "No, I don't want to go back."

"Not going back? Fu Qianzhou, look at how this banquet has been turned into such a mess with just two words from you. Although the princess intends to choose you as the Crown Prince's consort, nothing has been finalized yet. The chance you mentioned only comes this once." Fu Wenyuan said, gradually calming down. "After the banquet, go and apologize to the princess."

Fu Qianzhou didn't care, "Who said I have to marry the prince?"

"Who are you going to marry then?"

"The handsome guy who came with you before~" As soon as Fu Qianzhou finished speaking, he saw Fu Wenyuan's complicated expression.

"impossible."

"Why?!"

"You can't just marry the young master of the Lu family." Fu Wenyuan said only this, and no longer cared about Fu Qianzhou standing there in a daze. Before leaving, he reminded him, "Remember to apologize to the princess."

Fu Qianzhou's eyes widened. Wasn't Lu Zhiyuan supposed to have died over a month ago?! Why was he still here?!

No, she has to find a chance to ask Lu Zhiyuan.

What if it’s a fellow villager?

Thinking of this, Fu Qianzhou couldn't hide the happy smile on his face, and left the corner of the garden with light steps.

When the only copy appeared in the hands of Princess Li, everything was settled.

Not to mention that Princess Li asked several questions in public about the content that did not involve the only copy, and when Xu Ruowei could not answer any of them, the people below knew that Xu Ruowei was plagiarizing.

What’s worse is that Xu Yuya was not spared either.

Zhang Xingye stared at Qi Yan fiercely, "It seems your senior brother doesn't want the medicine anymore!"

Qi Yan replied coldly, "I remember that Master Zhang owed Master Lu a request."

In an instant, Zhang Xingye knew what Qi Yan was planning, "Why do you think he will help you?"

Seven words without saying a word.

Zhang Xingye was so angry that he wanted to kill someone.

After the poetry competition ended, Princess Li left on the pretext of being exhausted.

Then something else happened that surprised everyone in the garden.

Xu Yuya had sex with a young man in the guest room.

Now, the entire aristocratic circle in Beijing knew that one of the Xu family’s two daughters was a habitual plagiarist and the other was shameless.

When Princess Li found out about this, her face turned black with anger.

The young man was called Chen Yingde. He claimed that he and Xu Yuya were in love with each other, but it was Xu Yuya who took the initiative to invite him.

At this point, no matter how she defended herself, Xu Yuya would be ruined.

But this is not enough. Xu Ruowei mixed in the crowd, her eyelids drooping slightly, and she kept saying in her heart, it’s not enough, it’s not enough, this level is not enough to completely defeat Xu Yuya, it’s not enough.

Although her own reputation is not good, it doesn't matter. As long as Xu Yuya is completely disgraced, that's enough.

Ouyang Jingye and Gu Chang did not go to the scene to avoid suspicion. They were drinking tea and chatting in the bamboo forest when they suddenly saw a woman in black appear beside them. Ouyang Jingye was so scared that he covered his heart with his hands and looked horrified.

"What's the matter?" Gu Chang put down the teacup and looked up at her.

Qi Yan knelt down sincerely and said, "I hope Master Lu can do me a favor. As long as Master Lu agrees, Qi Yan is willing to serve Master Lu."

Gu Chang's fingertips rubbed the rim of the teacup. "Are you representing yourself or the forces behind you?"

Qi Yan was silent for a moment after hearing this. "It represents the power behind me."

"Then tell me what you want me to do for you?" Gu Changwei raised his lips and looked at Qi Yan with his beautiful eyes.

Ouyang Jingye, who was listening on the side, had no idea what the two were talking about. He looked at Qiyan and then at Gu Chang, his eyes full of confusion.

"Please ask Mr. Lu to ask Zhang Xingye for a pill."

"What elixir?"

"Qingyang Pill." Qiyan answered truthfully.

Ouyang Jingye couldn't help but ask, "What if he gave you fake medicine? I've never heard of this Qingyang Pill. Have you seen it?"

Qi Yan shook his head, but his tone was firm, "To be honest, I am one of the disciples of Tongtian Valley."

Seeing this, Ouyang Jingye became interested. "Hasn't your Tongtian Valley always been secluded from the world? Why did you come out?"

"Life forces me." Qi Yan glanced at him with a flat tone.

Ouyang Jingye, "..." He thought it was some very powerful reason.

Gu Chang nodded slightly, "I promise you this."

"Thank you, Mr. Lu, but I'm not working for Zhang Xingye now, so I have no place to live..." Qiyan's eyes were covered with a black veil, making it impossible to tell what she was thinking.

Gu Chang stood up and helped her up. "No problem, you can stay at my house. I have extra guest rooms."

"Thank you, Mr. Lu!" Qi Yan felt relieved.

After Qiyan left, Ouyang Jingye forced Gu Chang to tell the truth.

"What do you want me to say?" Gu Chang was a little helpless.

"Did you know long ago that something would... happen to that Xu Ya?" Ouyang Jingye paused, staring at Gu Chang intently, afraid to miss the expression on Gu Chang's face.

Gu Chang said slowly, "About the same."

Ouyang Jingye, "..." That's not all!
