The rebirth of the poisonous concubine

Chapter 413 Sarcastic Queen

"Since the queen has spoken, let's agree. What is the title of this pair of poems? Since it was proposed by Chen Guipin, let Chen Guipin come out." Situ Rui said with a serious face. full of interest.

But he didn't consider at all what kind of embarrassing situation he would push his precious imperial concubine because of his interest.

A sneer flashed in Qin Wange's eyes.This is Situ Rui's favorite.His love is based on his own preferences.If you follow his wishes, you will be loved for a long time, if you follow his wishes, you will be treated with cold eyes, and it is even more impossible for him to consider other people's feelings.

There was a gleam of light in the eyes of those young concubines, probably because they wanted to perform well in front of Situ Rui and win Situ Rui's favor.The king is merciless, it's ridiculous that they are still vying for the king's mercy.

Qin Wange felt sad for them.

As soon as they entered the palace gate, it was as deep as the sea. Whether it was out of their own conscience or helplessness, fighting for favor became their only destiny.

Just when Qin Wange was distracted, Chen Caiwei had already thought about the title of the poem, and said slowly: "Today, the crabapple flowers in front of the gate are blooming just right, and the imperial concubine sent another pot of flowers to the emperor as a birthday present. How about taking flowers as the subject of today's poem, just to make a splash?"

After hearing this, Xu Qiushui praised: "After all, Concubine Chen Gui's mind is exquisite, so it's better to use flowers as the theme. The flowers are perfect and the moon is full, and they can also suit the occasion."

He said this in praise of Chen Caiwei, but Xu Qiushui was looking at Qin Wange: Bitch, I will see how you end up this time!

However, Qin Wange's face was calm, and when he met Xu Qiushui's provocative gaze, he did not panic at all, but instead provoked a sneering smile.

Although she dare not say that she is proficient in all kinds of poems and songs, she is not a problem with poems for small occasions.It was too early for Xu Qiushui to see her jokes.Whoever sees who is making a joke is not necessarily sure!

"However, today's poems are naturally mainly about sisters having fun, and it is fun regardless of seniority." When it was about to start, Xu Qiushui suddenly said, but he didn't know what he was thinking.Today is Situ Rui's birthday, so it's easy to talk.

Situ Rui asked, "According to the queen's intention?"

Xu Qiushui smiled slightly and said: "According to my concubine's humble opinion, let Luzhu prepare the wooden sticks and draw lots for the sisters and sisters present. Whoever gets the draw will come first. The emperor will be the referee for the sisters' poems. If you get well, the emperor and his concubines will be rewarded; if you are the last one, you will naturally be punished."

What she thought in her heart was that if An Lingsu lost this time, she must find a way to punish her and make her lose face.

Xu Qiushui seemed determined that Qin Wange would definitely lose in this competition.

Situ Rui didn't have any principles at all, so he was excited by what Xu Qiushui said, so he agreed, "Then follow what the queen said."

Situ Rui was clearly aware of this silent competition for favor in the harem, but the scent of powder around him concealed the smell of gunpowder, and Situ Rui enjoyed this feeling very much.

Because, the women in the harem compete for favor because of him. These women are all born in aristocratic families and beautiful like flowers, but they still want to curry favor with him carefully, only to catch his eyes.Is there any man in the world who can hug the beauties in the world like him?
Luzhu brought up the prepared sandalwood sticks, first Xu Qiushui drew one, and then Qin Wange drew the number of times according to their positions.

Everyone unfolded the labels they drew in their hands, but they saw that the first one belonged to Xu Qiushui. Xia Heyue on the side had already said cleverly: "Even though the empress is modest, she is still the first one in the draw. Nothing will be left behind."

Xia Heyue patted Xu Qiushui's ass like this, although Xu Qiushui's face was calm and there was no ups and downs, but there was a hint of approval in his eyes, obviously Xia Heyue's words made Xu Qiushui very happy Useful.

"Concubine Xia is really eloquent, it's no wonder the emperor likes you so much, I don't know which one is Concubine Xia's draw?" Chen Caiwei was dissatisfied with Xia Heyue's flattery to Xu Qiushui, so she said a little meanly.

"The concubine draws the third one." Xia Heyue held the wooden stick in her hand and said, then deliberately looked at Qin Wange, "I don't know which one is the imperial concubine?"

Qin Wange put the sandalwood stick in his hand on the table and slowly opened it. It was the last one. Qin Wange said to Situ Rui in a very regretful tone: "The concubine has drawn the last one. All the sisters The jewels and jades are the first, and the concubines are afraid that they will make a fool of themselves in the end."

Although the tone was very regretful, there was no regret in his eyes, and he just looked at Xu Qiushui with a touch of sarcasm.

If she was not mistaken, the lottery this time seemed very fair, but when it came to her, the lottery was put in a wide sleeve by a little girl, Xu Qiushui really did not miss any chance to humiliate her.

"This time it's just for fun, how can the imperial concubine care so much about winning or losing?" Xu Qiushui said lightly.

Everyone had already opened the lottery in their hands, and they saw Xu Qiushui first, followed by Chen Caiwei, and behind Chen Caiwei was Liu Ruxin.

In this competition, Xu Qiushui was only playing the role of attracting others, and the real focus was on the concubines later on.Liu Ruxin and Chen Caiwei are two people, one is the most talented woman in the capital, and the other is the most talented woman in the south of the Yangtze River. Although this time is just a small competition, the two people are ranked together, which is somewhat relative.

However, Chen Caiwei's eyes showed a hint of competitiveness. After all, they are both women who are famous for their talents. Although the identities of the two are very different, Chen Caiwei came quickly and arrogantly, and wanted to overwhelm Liu Ruxin. This happened to be a Great opportunity.

And behind Liu Ruxin are Xia Heyue and Wu Lianxin, followed by Liu Qiaoyi, behind Liu Qiaoyi there are several concubines, and finally Qin Wange.

"The late blooming is for the sake of the crowd, and the precious land is planted into a pair of jade halls. The red smoke is full of doubts, and the moon is full of flowers and only smells the fragrance."

Xu Qiushui recited slowly, this poem recites exactly peony, the king of peony flowers, from ancient to modern times
Among the women in the harem, the status of the queen is noble, and the peony also symbolizes the status of the queen.The addition of "Rang Qunfang" shows her grace and generosity as a queen, and she does not compete with the harem for favor.

With approval in his eyes, Situ Rui nodded slowly and said: "The empress is more open-minded now, this poem is very good."

The smile on Xu Qiushui's face was incomparably gentle and courteous, and he said: "The emperor's praise is too high." The smile in his eyes was quite smug.

The second one is Chen Caiwei, but Chen Caiwei thought for a while, and said: "The peonies are blooming with red silk, and the hedges are weaving with green threads. The silk is woven with golden stamens, and the high flame is like a fire."

Let’s not talk about the quality of this poem, just say that Xu Qiushui recited peony just now, and Chen Caiwei recited peony. Peony is the king of flowers, and peony is the queen of flowers, second only to peony. The intention is self-evident.

Here, both Liu Ruxin and Qin Wange have higher status than her, which shows that she puts them in the slightest.

Everyone looked at Qin Wange and Liu Ruxin who were provoked by Qin, but they saw that the expressions of the two were as usual, as if they were indifferent to Chen Caiwei's provocation.

The corner of Liu Ruxin's mouth twitched into a slight sneer, and the disdain in her eyes made Chen Caiwei inexplicably uncomfortable.Her look of contempt seems to be saying: I have never put you, Chen Caiwei, in my eyes.

That kind of arrogance is only possessed by a woman who comes from a family with noble blood in her bones. A woman from such a lowly background like her can't compare to her even if she tries her best throughout her life.

But at that glance, Chen Caiwei's eyes turned red with hatred.

But I saw Liu Ruxin chanting slowly: "The most important thing is that the world can't keep it, and Zhu Yan's speech is from the mirror to the flower from the tree."

The faint voice has a different taste among the clusters of flowers. In the poems of the first two, they all yearn for the prosperity like a brocade, but Liu Ruxin's poems are indifferent to the prosperity.This caused the expressions of Xu Qiushui and Chen Caiwei to change immediately.

The reason why Chen Caiwei's face changed was because her poems were flashy, while Liu Ruxin's poems were indifferent. The two of them were very clear about their disdain for flashy, and they slapped her in the face without a doubt.

But Xu Qiushui's complexion was obviously uglier than Chen Caiwei's, and he even scolded: "Concubine Yun, what should you do?"

Before Liu Ruxin could speak, Qin Wange looked at Situ Rui innocently: "Although my concubine doesn't know much about Xiling's poems, it's really good for my concubine to listen to Concubine Yun's poems. Haitang, but the poem also contains flower characters, which is not considered a violation of the rules. Why is the empress so angry?"

The expression on Situ Rui's face was so light that no one could see his joy or anger, and he said, "Today is my birthday banquet, and this poem by Concubine Yun Gui is too desolate, so it's not appropriate."

Liu Ruxin didn't speak, Xu Qiushui was still proud, who knew that Situ Rui changed the subject and said, "However, Concubine Yun Gui has always had a cold personality, why should the empress be so fussy?"

Xu Qiushui was speechless for a long time after being swallowed by Situ Rui.Her face was almost distorted, she couldn't say that Liu Ruxin's "The most unstoppable thing in the world, Zhu Yan Ci Jing Hua Ci Shu" was clearly mocking her old age and fading!

The concubines present here are all young and youthful, but she is already old, no matter how graceful she looks, it can't change the fact that she is almost thirty.Shallow fine lines around the eyes can be covered with powder.But what about the vicissitudes in the eyes?How could she be more innocent than these young girls?
How much Xu Qiushui wanted to tear Liu Ruxin's smile apart in front of everyone, but she couldn't, she was the queen... Queen, queen!But what is the use of the position of queen!

For a long time, Xu Qiushui swallowed the resentment in his stomach, and forced a smile: "Your Majesty, the lesson is right."

Situ Rui let out a "hmm" and didn't speak.

After Liu Ruxin, it was Xia Heyue who wrote poems in response to the occasion.Xia Heyue recited a poem about lotus in a regular manner, and it was over.
