Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 175 Grandstanding
"My beloved concubine is so beautiful, and her mind is so clever, I am so relieved!" Ming Shengdi smiled cheerfully, stretched out his hand and hugged Qin Guiren's body to his side, even in her small and tall body Gently scratching the bridge of the nose with his hand, there is some indescribable pampering.

Qin Guiren grabbed Ming Shengdi's heart with a few words, and the concubines were full of taste.

"Qin Guiren is so studious that I am a little surprised. Girls at this age are mostly playful. When Qi'er was alive, I always pressured her to learn this and that, but this girl only loves to play the piano and dance. He is ignorant. Qin Guiren is naturally intelligent, and I think he must be much better than Qi'er, and I and all the sisters will wait for Qin Guiren to show it off."

Shui Yanran's words seemed to be praising Qin Guiren, but she continued what Qin Guiren had just said in order to defend herself.

She sat upright on the seat, looked at Qin Guiren whose face changed slightly with a smile, but she had a lot of thoughts about watching a good show in her heart.

Qin, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and poetry have to be cultivated from an early age. This Qin nobleman has only been in the palace for a few days. How can she learn any talents? It is not recommended to help her.

Looking at Shui Yanran's slightly teasing eyes, Qin Guiren bit her lips lightly but became a little flustered, just now she answered casually, if she showed her truthfully, she really didn't know what to do.

However, Ming Shengdi was by her side, she boasted about Haikou but it was hard to change it, she felt embarrassed and didn't know how to say it.

"Haha, my beloved concubine, don't be frightened. Today is the night of the reunion. Since you just came to me, you are also a gift from heaven to me. Why don't you show off your talents and write a poem or draw a picture about today's Mid-Autumn Festival?" One, let's chat to add to the fun!"

Ming Shengdi was stroking the gray dragon's beard while smiling, his deep eyes were smiling, his big hand lightly patted Qin Guiren's shoulder, which made Qin Guiren even more flustered.

"This……"

Qin Guiren stammered cowardly, a little anxious, how could she make any poems or paintings? It is not bad that she was born in that slum and could provide enough food and clothing every day. How could she have money to go to a school or a school? Invite the master to come to teach talent at home!

"Why, Qin Guiren is timid?" The queen smiled faintly and secretly pushed her. As the mother of a country, she is also the wife of Ming Shengdi, so naturally she doesn't mind seeing the favored young concubine make a fool of herself. .

Qin Guiren shook his head hastily, his big eyes turned several times between Ming Shengdi and the crowd, and at this moment Ming Shengdi beckoned for the palace servants to bring pens, ink, paper and inkstones, actually asking Qin Guiren to paint and write poems on the spot.

Qin Guiren bit the bullet and walked to the center of the hall, holding the brush that was longer than chopsticks, her heart was pounding. She knew how to write, but she could just forget about drawing, but under the gaze of so many eyes, she really couldn't help it. I don't know how to organize sentences to make poems.

The bright moon outside the high window is as huge as a plate, and its golden luster shrouds the surrounding clouds. Qin Guiren held the pen in his hand for a long time without writing a word. Rao Ming Shengdi, who was very excited at the beginning, couldn't wait. Be patient.

"My concubine, why don't you write yet?"

Qin Guiren bit his lower lip and said in embarrassment: "Your Majesty, my concubine has little talent, I am afraid that what I write is not as good as Yue Concubine Empress, and it will make people laugh..."

"Your Qin, you don't need to be humble. Everyone is just trying to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. You just write it down. Could it be that we will still laugh at you?" Shui Yanran continued, smiling coldly in her heart, looking at this girl How long can you pretend to be down!

Now that the arrow is on the string and has to be fired, Qin Guiren swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and can only write gently with his wrist shaking.She went through all the poems she had heard in the past ten years in her head, and after holding back for a long time, she wrote four lines of poems that could barely be used in battle. She put down her pen and glanced timidly at Emperor Ming.

Seeing that she had finished writing, Ming Shengdi smiled and waved to her, and said to the palace servants who were milling beside him: "Come, read the poems written by Qin Guiren for me and others to listen to!"

The palace servant nodded in response, and immediately went forward to hold up the rice paper on which Qin Guiren had written the poem. Qin Guiren felt uneasy, only to see that the palace servant was holding the rice paper and was about to read, when he saw clearly what was written on the rice paper After the words and sentences, unexpectedly burst out laughing.

Ming Shengdi's face changed instantly, and the palace servant also knew that he had broken the rules, so he quickly explained: "The emperor forgives the sin, the slave didn't mean to laugh, but the poem written by the noble lady is really... It's kind of honest!"

No one would use sincerity to describe a poem, Ming Shengdi frowned, raised his hand and said, "You read it out first."

The man in the palace nodded quickly, not daring to smile any more, resisting the urge to laugh, and read it solemnly: "The moon shines yellow and yellow on the earth, and there is a cold wind blowing on people's faces. The moon will be rounder in the coming year than the mooncakes on the table." round……"

The palace man's voice reached everyone's ears. When he read the fourth sentence, everyone who had been holding back their laughter couldn't help but burst out laughing. It's funny, the concubines have to keep a reserved attitude, they can only barely maintain a smile without showing their teeth, covering their shoulders with their handkerchiefs shaking non-stop, and some of the princes have already slapped the table and laughed, everyone's eyes are full of smiles. expresses contempt for this vulgar line.

I could only hear the ups and downs of laughter mixed with a few sarcasms from time to time.

"Oh, what kind of poetry is this? All the servants in the courtyard of the palace can write better than this."

"Isn't that right? I thought that being able to write two characters can be called writing lyrics and composing poems, but I'm not afraid of laughing out loud when I say it!"

"Oh, why don't you say that the daughters of this rich family are different from the daughters raised by the poor people in the market? Compared with Qin Guiren's poem, the concubine feels that the poem written by the Concubine Yue last year is completely different from it. Woolen cloth."

……

The palace is only this big in total, Qin Guiren heard the taunts in twos and threes clearly, and her delicate face turned blue and red, she looked at Ming Shengdi timidly, only to see that Ming Shengdi's face was also very ugly , for the first time dissatisfied with Qin Guisheng.

Shui Yanran looked at this scene and evoked a deep smile.A little girl is just a little girl, so she can't stand it for a while. How can she be worthy of being in the most luxurious and dignified palace in the world when she has an empty skin without any connotation? She will live in this palace for a long time. Let's see how long Ming Shengdi's love for Qin Guiren can last.

Just when everyone thought that this nobleman Qin would lose face today, there was a burst of applause beside Ming Shengdi.

The applause was incompatible with the laughing and laughing in the palace. Everyone stopped laughing and looked at Xia Shengqing who was applauding. Even Ming Shengdi was very puzzled, and criticized displeasedly: "What are you doing?" ?”

Xia Shengqing half bent down, and responded respectfully: "Your Majesty, forgive me, this servant just thought that the poem written by the noble lady is wonderful, so I couldn't help but applaud!"

His voice is warm and magnetic, but what he said is surprising.

Anyone who can read can understand what Qin Guiren wrote. If such a bad poem can be said to be well written, then wouldn't the poem they wrote casually become a masterpiece handed down from generation to generation?
Not only did everyone find it absurd, Ming Shengdi felt that Xia Shengqing's words were nonsensical, so he looked him up and down and snorted slightly.

"I want to hear what kind of magic method it is?"

Xia Shengqing pursed her lips into a smile, raised her upper body slightly, and pointed at the poem written by Qin Guiren.

"Look, Your Majesty, Qin Guiren's poem seems very simple and easy to understand, but there is actually a great truth in it. The moon is born and the sunset is the way of heaven. Every August [-]th is the fullest moon of the year. It is also the time when the common people start to work on the harvest. As long as they see the moon on the Mid-Autumn Festival is yellow, round and big, they know that this year's harvest is particularly good. Qin Guisheng naturally knows the truth of this, and writes like this The simple and unpretentious poems can just explain that in the world you rule, the emperor, the common people have more than enough harvests, so why not every year!"

As he said this, he bowed to Ming Shengdi again: "It is the blessing of the world and the blessing of the common people that Da Lai has such a wise emperor!"

Xia Shengqing said a lot in a high-sounding manner, insisting that Qin Guiren's nonsense poems were used to praise Ming Shengdi for his merits in governing the country.

However, Emperor Ming Sheng loved to hear these compliments very much, and his originally gloomy face turned into a smile, and he laughed loudly while leaning on his knees.

"Haha, Shengqing's mouth is getting more and more clever. I almost didn't see what Qin Guiren meant. Aifei really has a delicate mind and won my heart!"

Qin Guiren has been tightly holding the handkerchief in his hand, and seems to be a little bit overwhelmed by the change of the situation, but she was supposed to be making a fool of herself, and she was suddenly overjoyed to be rewarded by Ming Shengdi, and she grinned. She opened her cherry mouth and smiled shyly again.

"The concubine is ashamed. It's just a show of affection for the emperor, which makes all the sisters laugh."

Her eyes like autumn waters were frequently passed to Ming Shengdi, with three parts shyness and three parts charming, which made Ming Shengdi love her even more.

The people who were waiting to see the good show looked at each other, and from time to time they chatted with the same sighing people next to them.

Xia Zijin, who had been watching the situation in the palace without saying a word, cast an indescribable look at Xia Shengqing who was standing beside Ming Shengdi.

He was not such a naughty person in the past, besides, it has nothing to do with him whether Qin Guiren made a fool of himself, why did he speak out to help?

In addition to all the previous things, doubts piled up in Xia Zijin's heart one after another, making her somewhat at a loss as to what to think in the face of this somewhat unfamiliar Xia Shengqing.
