The wives of the concubines are empresses

Shangguan Wanjun curled her lips and smiled: "Alright, let the ministers take the opportunity to test my talent and see if it can pass the test."

Shangguan Wanjun's words were suddenly elevated to a higher level, and all the ministers admired her in their hearts.

These words showed that he was acting like a student, which was something the ministers had never expected.

De Fei - Mu Wennian smiled faintly and bowed: "Your Majesty is joking, we can learn from each other."

Someone broke the deadlock first, and others followed suit.

"Yes, yes, let's learn from each other." It was Concubine De who reacted quickly.

"Your Majesty, we all need to learn more."

The Minister of Revenue, Mu Qinghai, nodded in satisfaction at his son's words. His son was quick to react and keep up with the emperor's pace.

He looked at the right prime minister and curled his lips, saying that he was really shameless.

The Right Prime Minister felt the gazes from all directions and frowned slightly. It seemed that he was still careless.

The Right Prime Minister raised his eyes unintentionally and found that the second son was looking at him with displeasure. He felt a pang in his heart, thinking that he was too careless.

Shangguan Wanjun took in the situation below calmly. Seeing that the Emperor easily resolved the embarrassment, the Empress Dowagers of the East and West Palaces relaxed their expressions and put on a decent smile.

"I'll go first."

Shangguan Wanjun placed one hand on the dining table and thought seriously. Everyone looked at the young emperor.

"We celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with singing and dancing. We gather together for this festive occasion. The full moon hangs high in the sky, and beautiful women dance gracefully on earth."

Zhao Renwei, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, was a clever and slick old fox, and he was the first to speak in praise.

"Your Majesty has only been formally studying these for a few months, and it's already quite good."

Wang Bo, the Imperial Guard of the Palace, smiled and said, "Master Zhao, the Minister of Rites, is absolutely right."

Jiang Shiji, the Minister of Imperial Household, looked at the Right Prime Minister and smiled playfully.

"What do you think, Right Prime Minister?"

Humph, you old bastard, you have no respect for hierarchy because of your high position and power. You are really annoying.

The Right Prime Minister's face was not very good. He suppressed his anger and said, "However Lord Jiang feels, I feel the same way."

Being outmaneuvered, Guanglu Temple Minister Jiang Shiji frowned slightly.

"Alright everyone, please don't start a quarrel over this poem of mine and damage the harmony among our colleagues."

After her persuasion, the turbulent situation among the ministers gradually subsided.

The Right Prime Minister spoke first: "Your Majesty is right."

Humph, you little bastard, dare to fight me?

Guanglu Temple Minister Jiang Shiji bowed and said, "Your Majesty is right. How about I write a sentence?"

He had better come to ease the atmosphere to avoid angering the emperor. It would be more trouble than gain to lose the emperor's favor because of a small loss.

Baipin-Jiang Ruobai felt relieved when she heard this.

"Okay, please come in, Mr. Guanglu Temple Minister." This man looked familiar. He seemed to be the father of Concubine Bai Jiang Ruobai, named Jiang Shiji.

Guanglu Temple Minister Jiang Shiji stroked his mustache and said, "The Mid-Autumn Festival is a time of joy and laughter, with singing and dancing, welcoming people from all over the world to come and live together."

The Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace savored it carefully and a smile spread across her face.

"Yes, that's a good sentence."

After receiving praise from the Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace, Guanglu Temple Minister Jiang Shiji stood up to express his gratitude.

"Thank you, Empress Dowager Donggong, for your praise."

Shangguan Wanjun also looked pleased when she heard this: "Minglan, give this hairpin to Lord Jiang."

Minglan, who was waiting beside her, stepped forward and took it: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Guanglu Temple Minister Jiang Shiji showed a look of joy. This was the first time the emperor gave a reward at a banquet, and he specifically mentioned his name.

First, there was praise from the Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace, and then there was reward from the Emperor. Hahaha, this is the first honor I have received today.

"I thank the emperor for his reward."

The ministers' eyes were almost popping out of their sockets with envy, which made Shangguan Wanjun laugh.

Baipin-Jiang Ruobai was really happy for her father. Their family must have left a good impression on the emperor.

Youfufeng Nian Shanghua was deeply frightened by the recent major reshuffle of Jingzhao Yin and decided to show his face at the banquet to show his loyalty.

"Your Majesty, I am here to join in the fun."

Shangguan Wanjun took a sip of the refreshing chrysanthemum tea and said, "Sure."

"Under the bright moon, beautiful women and fine wine. Singing and dancing, welcoming the new millennium."

Shangguan Wanjun applauded and praised without hesitation.

"Not bad, reward."

After saying that, he took off the bamboo bracelet on his hand and handed it to Minglan behind him. Minglan stepped forward to take it as usual, walked towards Youfufeng Nian Shanghua, and presented it with both hands.

"grown ups."

Youfufeng Nian Shanghua didn't expect that he would receive praise and rewards directly. He was so excited that his face turned slightly red. He bent down respectfully and took it.

"I thank the emperor."

"Thank you, Lord Ming." Minglan smiled faintly and nodded, then turned around and returned to the emperor.

Shangguan Wanjun sat up straight and looked at the people below calmly.

"Let's play a sentence chain game. The person who takes over has to connect the previous sentence with the next sentence, which is similar to my couplet."

Hearing this, everyone looked up.

"Long live the Lord, thousands and thousands of years."

Everyone was stunned. The emperor's sentence was concise and clear, and easy to understand.

Seeing everyone with their heads down in thought, Shangguan Wanjun was not in a hurry and started chatting with her mother and concubine beside her.

"Why don't you, Queen Mother, also participate?"

The Queen Mother of the West Palace looked at the Queen Mother of the East Palace, only to hear her smile faintly and shake her head.

"I won't join in the fun, let's just look at everyone's talents."

Empress Dowager Xigong sneered and agreed, "Sister is right. Mother will not join in the fun. I will just take a look at everyone's talents and learn from them."

She knew her own limitations and couldn't afford to embarrass herself in such a spotlight.

Concubine Wu - Propaganda Wind stood up and bowed.

"Your Majesty, let me give it a try."

Shangguan Wanjun didn't expect that the first person to speak was Concubine Wu. Isn't he the son of a military family? How could he know the ways of a scholar?

"allow."

"Little big big, little big big man."

Shangguan Wanjun couldn't help but burst out laughing: "My beloved concubine, your answer is very good. Reward."

"Your Majesty, I thank you for your reward." He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and the smile that he couldn't hide made the other concubines envious.

Soon, a jade finger appeared in his hand.

Concubine Wen - Bai Xuanyi was envious when she saw that he had received the reward, and she also wanted to try it.

"Your Majesty, I will try it too."

"That's right."

Everyone looked at Concubine Wen - Bai Xuanyi with great interest, wanting to know what couplet he would make.

"Up and down, up and down, up and down."

Shangguan Wanjun murmured softly, "Up and down, up and down, it's quite smooth."

"reward."

Minglan walked towards Concubine Wen - Bai Xuanyi, holding a pearl hairpin.

"Noble Consort Wen."

"Your Majesty, I, your husband, thank you." He also received a reward.

Concubine Wu - Propaganda Style received his provocative look calmly and just smiled.

General Xuanwei chuckled and shook his head at his son's behavior. It was obvious that Concubine Wen was jealous.

There's no way, since the two of them are of similar rank, talent, family background and appearance.

Once you enter the palace, it's like entering a deep sea, and the same is true for men.

However, given his son's intelligence, he will definitely not suffer any injustice.

With two people speaking up, everyone became more interested, and an adult bowed.

"Your Majesty, I have a sentence here."

"Speaking!"

"Left, right, left, right, row left, left, right."

Everyone was filled with regret, wondering why they hadn't thought of this.
