Guan Zhiyi smiled bitterly and said: "I am from a small family and don't dare to offend Princess Qi. Besides, women should stay together forever. Now that I am engaged to the Fifth Master Qin, I will never dare to have other ideas."
Qin Yuli felt annoyed when she saw Guan Zhiyi's cowardice.
If Guan Zhiyi doesn’t want to fight, then he will help her fight! Today's poetry meeting is titled late autumn.
The guests who came to the poetry party were asked to write more or less a poem, which was finally handed over to His Highness the Crown Prince for judgment.
Qi Yuning has no talent for poetry, but he has learned it since childhood, and poetry can be regarded as easy to write.
I wrote a poem on paper scented with osmanthus.
Lu Baozhu leaned close to the poem written by Qi Yuning and read out: "The mountain springs are gurgling, and the wild persimmons are red. The autumn wind blows high in the mountains, but it is warmer than the spring."
Lu Baozhu held his tongue and said, "The poems you wrote are just average, not even comparable to mine."
Qi Yuning took back his writing paper from Lu Baozhu, "I think this poem is excellent. I'm not a talented woman, so I don't need others to praise my poetry. I just like it myself."
Lu Baozhu said: "Look at the poem I wrote. In the autumn, I climbed the mountain and the reeds were high by the lake. The princess was afraid of the bastard, so she rolled around and hid! "Lu Baozhu!" Qi Yuning glared at Lu Baozhu and said, "Quickly change your attitude."
"I won't change it."
Song Heqing on the side smiled softly.
Lu Baohua helplessly held up his forehead, "Sister, do you... want me to help you correct it?"
Lu Baozhu waved his hands and said: "No, no, no, I think my poem is excellent."
In order to ensure the fairness of the poetry fair, a copy of each poem will be copied by the eunuch and handed over to the prince to judge the ranking of the poems.
Song Heqing thought for a while and humbly asked Lu Baohua for advice: "Miss Lu, could you please help me correct it?"
"Of course you can." Lu Baohua really liked helping people change their poems.
Lin Jiang and Lu Ze were the ones who reviewed the poems in the front yard first, and then handed them over to the prince for the final judgment.
Lin Jiang took the poem written by Lu Baozhu and said, "This princess is afraid of the bastard. Which princess is it written about?"
Lu Ze took a closer look and guessed that it was written by Lu Baozhu. He looked at another poem written by Lin Jiang, picked it up and smiled knowingly.
Lin Jiang looked at it and said, "This poem is mediocre, but you like it?"
Lu Zedao: "It was written by Princess Qi."
Lin Jiang suddenly realized: "That's it."
In the final evaluation of the poetry meeting, among the female relatives, Lu Baohua ranked first, followed by Song Heqing. Everyone said that Song Heqing inherited the old master's literary talent, and third was Wang Zhiyu, Lin Jiang's fiancée. Coming from a family of military commanders, Wang Zhiyu's literary talent is not weak at all.
After the poetry meeting ended, Qi Yuning did not rush back. After all, his legs were not good and he would be stuck for a while. It was better to wait for everyone to disperse before leaving.
Qi Yuning and Song Heqing were chatting together.
Song Heqing wanted to be convenient. Not long after leaving, Qi Yuning saw Qin Zhen coming towards her, and she frowned secretly.
Qin Zhen stepped forward and saluted: "Princess Qi, Miss Song."
Qi Yuning sat upright and asked, "What's going on with Fifth Master Qin?"
Qin Zhen looked at Qi Yuning's face carefully. Perhaps Qi Yuning was usually too noble and aloof, which made people ignore Qi Yuning's beauty.
For example, Princess Qi, who was eighteen years old, was truly extremely beautiful, with phoenix eyes and long eyebrows, and fair skin that could be broken by a blow. She looked extremely noble even when she was sitting.
Qin Zhen finally understood why His Highness the Crown Prince fell in love with Qi Yuning a year or two ago.
This Qi Yuning is really beautiful.
Qin Zhen's gaze made Qi Yuning feel unhappy. Qi Yuning frowned and said with a sharp look in his eyes: "What on earth is wrong with Fifth Master Qin?"
Qin Zhen smiled calmly and said: "It's nothing, I just feel that I haven't noticed that the princess is so beautiful before."
Qi Yuning only felt very greasy, as if the bottom of her throat was stained with the grease from Qin Zhen. This person was as disgusting as Qin Yuning ignored Qin Zhen and stood up to leave.
Qin Zhen stepped forward and said, "I heard that the princess has difficulty with her legs and feet. Can I help the princess back to the palace?"
"Need not!"
Qin Zhen took a step closer to Qi Yuning, "Princess, it's better not to force yourself, let me help you!"
Qi Yuning frowned. None of her secret guards or maids could enter the royal garden, and she didn't know when Song Heqing would return.
Qi Yuning raised her hand and touched the hairpin between her buns. Whenever Qin Zhen dared to touch her, she would pull out the hairpin and stab him blindly.
"I won't bother my fifth cousin. I am on the same page as the princess. I will send the princess back to the palace."
Lu Ze strode over, walked to Qi Yuning's side, and supported Qi Yuning.
Qi Yuning couldn't hide the disgust in her eyes when facing Qin Zhen, "The Qin family really has a crooked upper beam and a crooked lower beam. My uncle is like this, no wonder my niece is like this too."
Qin Zhen said angrily: "Qi Yuning, do you know that the Queen is also a member of the Qin family!"
Qi Yuning said: "If you have the guts, go to the Empress and complain. Just in time, I can also go to the Empress and tell her about the fact that Fifth Master Qin came to tease me after we had arranged a marriage."
Qin Zhen snorted, "I just helped Princess Qi to go home. Doesn't Princess Qi take herself too seriously? I was kind, but the princess took it as teasing?"
Qi Yuning said coldly: "You know what you think in your heart. I, Qi Yuning, am not some Guanliu girl who can be robbed and humiliated by you!"
Lu Ze supported Qi Yuning and said to Qin Zhen: "Fifth cousin, Princess Jinzhiyuye, she no longer wants you to support her, but you insist on going your own way. If this matter really comes to His Majesty's Majesty... I am afraid that even Your Highness will be affected. Harsh."
Qin Zhen rolled his sleeves and glared at Qi Yuning, who was supported by Lu Ze, and smiled playfully. Your Majesty and the Queen are already old. After the prince ascends the throne, he would like to see how Lu Ze and Qi Yuning can be as arrogant as now.
After Qin Zhen left, Lu Ze said to Qi Yuning, "Shall I take you back?"
Qi Yuning said: "There is also Miss Song, wait for her, I underestimated Qin Zhen's shamelessness."
Lu Ze said: "I'm sorry, Princess, if it weren't for me, Qin Zhen wouldn't be targeting you."
Qi Yuning raised his eyes and looked at Lu Ze and said, "This has nothing to do with you. Qin Zhen is shameless and there is no need for me to get involved with you."
Qi Yuning waited for another quarter of an hour before Song Heqing returned with a blushing face.
Qi Yuning saw Song Heqing and smiled and said, "Why have you been gone so long?"
Song Heqing whispered: "I met the prince, and he chatted with me about poetry for a while..."
Seeing that it was Lu Ze who was supporting Qi Yuning, Song Heqing consciously took two steps back.
When he arrived at the door, Lu Ze said to Qi Yuning: "You want to take my carriage back? Let Miss Song take your Prince Qi's carriage. This way, you don't have to go around the Song family again. Lingling is afraid I’m anxious to see you.”
Qi Yuning also missed Lingling, who had not been seen all day, "Then He Qing, I won't send it to you."
Song Heqing nodded, "Yes, go back quickly, I'm afraid Lingling is anxious to see you."
After getting on the carriage at the princess residence, Qi Yuning saw that Lu Ze had also entered, but there were no two sisters, Lu Baozhu and Lu Baohua. He asked, "Where are Baozhu and Baohua?"
Lu Ze said: "They left long ago."
Qi Yuning said: "I haven't seen Lingling all day, and I don't know if she misses me. I'm really afraid that she will go back someday... Then I will definitely be heartbroken."
Lu Ze chuckled and said: "You know, I will be pregnant with Lingling by the end of next year. Even if Lingling goes back now, we will be able to see Lingling again in the future."
When Qi Yuning thought about being pregnant with Lingling, she felt a slight blush on her face. She looked at Lu Ze with a little discomfort in her eyes. Now they just hold hands and are pregnant with Lingling...
Qi Yuning only felt that the tips of her ears were getting redder and redder.
