It doesn't matter if she loses her own face, but she loses the face of the entire country! What was lost was one year’s tribute from the Kingdom of Western Chu! What is lost is the healthy and stable life of the people!
Everyone couldn't help complaining in their hearts about why the emperor made such a ridiculous decision.
"Come here, prepare the same charcoal sticks as the Prince's for Princess Dingyuan."
With a glance from the corner of his eye, Mo Chuan could see the slight dissatisfaction on the faces of the ministers, but he remained calm and calm as he gave instructions to the eunuchs beside him.
Among everyone present, no one knew Shen Ning better than him. Only he knew that she couldn't use a brush. She couldn't write with a brush at all, she could only draw earthworms.
Soon, the charcoal strips were delivered to Shen Ning.
She was startled slightly, biting her lower lip with her teeth, and picked up the charcoal bar, her heart throbbing.
It's him, only he can think so carefully and thoughtfully, and only he can understand her like this.
But she still dared not raise her head to look at him.
Although she knew that his eyes had never left her, she could no longer give him any response because she had already promised Chu Shaoyang...
She closed her eyes and tried her best to get rid of all the troublesome emotions in her mind. She didn't want to think about it now. She couldn't think about it. She wanted to win this competition well. She couldn't lose!
Ye Tingxuan kept looking at her intently. He was originally full of confidence in her, but when he saw her closing her eyes again, her face was white and her body was trembling slightly, like a white camellia swaying in the wind, her heart couldn't help but lift. got up.
What's wrong with her? Did she understand her hint just now
Shen Ning finally opened her eyes, held the charcoal stick tightly, and started writing one stroke at a time on the white paper.
Ye Tingxuan noticed that the moment she opened her eyes, he saw a faint flash of water in her eyes.
She wrote very fast, almost non-stop, like flowing clouds and flowing water. She first wrote the ancient seal script of the Western Chu Kingdom, because these graphics were the most complex. She wrote these graphics meticulously based on the impressions in her mind. Copy it.
Everyone in Xichu in the stands opened their mouths in surprise when they saw the ancient seal script she dropped on the paper, and their eyes widened. Many people began to rub their eyes, suspecting that they were hallucinating.
How can it be? This is impossible!
Almost all of them knew ancient seal script, and now they saw that Shen Ning's writing was pretty good, but she was just a girl under the age of ten!
"The Queen Mother, I don't know ancient seal script. Do you think the characters written by the princess are all correct?"
Su Jin supported Queen Mother Zhou and stood on the edge of the stand. She stretched her neck and looked down, but found that she didn't recognize a word. She was worried and anxious and couldn't help but ask Queen Mother Zhou quietly.
Queen Mother Zhou was as heavy as water, but there was a faint light in her eyes. Her hand holding Sujin trembled a little, and she nodded her head very slowly.
"Thank God, may the princess win."
Sujin couldn't help but close her eyes and pray softly.
Empress Dowager Zhou did not speak, but she glanced at Mo Chuan from the corner of her eyes. As expected, she saw a strange light on her son's face.
Mo Chuan's eyes were shining with joy and excitement, and he could no longer look away from Shen Ning's face.
Although he has long known what kind of person she is, and although he does not know that she has the ability to remember photographs, he understands her, and as long as she wants to do something, she will definitely do it.
