Ye Yichen's eyes sank, he didn't speak, his white fingertips lightly rubbed the white jade wine glass in his hand...
"Miss Murong, why don't you speak? Did you figure out the answer, or didn't you?" Seeing Murong Xue looking at her coldly, Lu Wanwan remained silent for a long time, feeling more complacent in her heart, sarcasm.
The emperor's eyes also fell on Murong Xue. Murong Xue was smart, he knew it a long time ago, but he didn't know if she thought of the answer this time.
"My daughter came up with an answer, I don't know if it's correct or not!" Murong Xue looked back at the emperor, and Lu Wanwan wanted her to give her the answer, and she would fulfill Lu Wanwan: "Innocent!"
"Not bad, not bad!" The emperor nodded, his majestic eyes filled with admiration.
Lu Wanwan's smile froze instantly, and Murong Xue actually gave the correct answer!
The reason she forced Murong Xue to give the answer was to make Murong Xue look ugly, not to make her shine, it's really hateful...
Mu Liufeng looked at Murong Xue, and frowned slightly. The emperor set up a feast of flowers, and would choose the most outstanding woman as the concubine. Murong Xue's excellence, this is not a good thing! If she gets the emperor's favor, it will be miserable...
Mu Liufeng quietly looked at the emperor, and saw that the emperor's majestic eyes swept over the daughters, and fell on Murong Xue, and said lightly: "You daughters have read poetry and books, and you must know how to deal with situations. A few days ago, Someone asked me, "Two people traveling from south to north, one pushing a cart and the other carrying firewood, they didn't argue or quarrel, and no one gave way, but they crossed the single-plank bridge smoothly. Why is that?"
The daughters looked at each other and looked at each other in blank dismay. Why are the questions asked by the emperor more tricky and weird than the other
This is not tricky and weird, it is a test of the talents and the flexibility of the minds of the daughters. As the prince and concubine, she is an example for Qing Yan's wives. They must be dignified in appearance, decent in behavior, and have a certain ability to adapt. Malicious people!
Murong Xue curled the corners of her mouth and continued to drink tea while holding the teacup, she didn't intend to answer the question at all.
The emperor raised his eyebrows, and his majestic eyes fell on Lu Wanwan!
Lu Wanwan's heart trembled slightly. The emperor had placed high hopes on her, and wanted her to answer this question. She would definitely not disappoint the emperor, because she also wanted to be someone's concubine!
Lu Wanwan glanced shyly and timidly at Ye Tianqi, then looked away instantly, her heart beating non-stop...
A flash of surprise flashed in the eyes of the sixth prince Ye Tiannuo, and he moved to Ye Tianqi's side at once, joking with a half-smile: "Fourth brother, that Lu Wanwan has been looking at you all the time, I remember that she seems to belong to the old princess Jing. My niece from my natal family is very talented..."
"If you like it, go and ask your father to marry you." Ye Tianqi replied casually, with a look of disapproval.
Ye Tiannuo was choked and coughed a few times: "Fourth brother, my good fourth brother, people are looking at you, not me, why should I ask for a marriage, besides, I am only fifteen years old this year, and I am not married yet. What about age, this time the concubine selection banquet is for you, second brother, and third brother, do you have a girl in your fancy?"
Fancy a girl
Ye Tianqixiu's long fingers gently stroked the white jade wine glass in his hand, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw the girl in the corner. She was wearing a long water-green dress with plum blossoms blooming proudly embroidered on the skirt, which was more beautiful than a garden full of flowers. The flowers are full of flowers, a little more indifferent, elegant, and the bright little face is clear and cold, as if isolated from this noisy feast.
The corners of Ye Tianqi's mouth curled into an almost invisible graceful arc: She doesn't seem to like this kind of lively occasion...
"Fourth brother, you actually smile so... bright, you have a girl you like, don't you? Tell me, tell me, who is it..." Ye Tiannuo asked excitedly, glancing back and forth in the group of daughters .
Ye Tianqi didn't speak, picked up the white jade wine glass and drank it down in one gulp, the shallow curve of his mouth showed his good mood...
"Fourth brother, which girl do you like? Tell me quickly, so that the emperor can give you a marriage." Ye Tiannuo hurriedly urged, impatient to know who the woman who attracted Ye Tianqi's heart was. who.
Marriage? She seems to have a sweetheart, and that person is not him!
Ye Tianqi suddenly woke up, and quietly glanced at the girl in the corner.
Lu Wanwan followed his gaze and saw Murong Xue, her beautiful face was so dark that it was about to drip ink. She was thinking hard for him, but he was looking at other women!
"I've heard for a long time that Miss Murong is extremely intelligent. I wonder if she can answer the emperor's question?" Ye Tianqi liked to watch her, so he showed kindness and gave her a chance to answer the question.
Everyone's eyes fell on Murong Xue again, and Murong Xue's bright face turned gloomy. She just ran into Lu Wanwan by chance and argued for a few words. I can't hide even if I want to hide.
Since Lu Wanwan wants to hear her answer so much, then she will tell Lu Wanwan: "Come from the south, you come from the south, and you go north, you go north. One direction, so they will not quarrel when crossing the single-plank bridge."
"That's right, the answer is exactly that." The emperor looked at Murong Xue with admiration.
Lu Wanwan was stunned, and two clusters of anger ignited in her beautiful eyes: She got the answer right again, it's really disgusting, she pushed the question to Murong Xue in order to make Murong Xue look ugly, but Murong Xue not only answered When these questions come up, the answers are more perfect every time, it's really hateful...
From the corner of the eye, I saw the emperor, and I saw the emperor looked at Murong Xue, his eyes were full of admiration, the empress and concubines also looked at Murong Xue with a slight smile, their eyes were full of praise, the second prince, the third prince, the fourth prince, the sixth prince The prince's gaze also seemed to fall on Murong Xue, with admiration flickering in his eyes.
It's just that she answered two difficult questions correctly, so is there any need to treat her differently
She also touched the threshold of the answer just now, as long as she is given a little more time, she can also think of it.
Murong Xue was a little bit smarter than her, and when she said the answer first, she won the appreciation of so many people. After a long time, it is difficult to guarantee that this appreciation will not develop in a deeper direction. This is not what she wants to see...
Lu Wanwan's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and she was about to think hard about Murong Xue's trick, when the eunuch's characteristic high-pitched voice suddenly sounded: "The Turkic envoy has arrived."
The Turkic envoy is here!
The emperor, the empress, and the princes looked downcast, dignified, and noble, sitting on their seats, looking straight ahead, only to see a young man striding over...
