The emperor's probing eyes wandered back and forth between the two of them.

Jiu Qi felt his scalp go numb, and he didn't even know how to eat.

Pick up a piece of meat from the plate, only to drop it again, then pick it up, and drop it again.

In the end, Jiang Zhao couldn't stand it anymore, and helped him put the meat slices into the bowl.

Then he whispered to him: "Can you be a little promising? This is not a big scene. It scares you."

"Then you often go to the palace to meet the emperor, so naturally you are not afraid of him."

"Then I'm just a little book boy, and I'm naturally frightened when I see the emperor."

"But pull it down, if he wasn't the emperor, do you think he would still be upset?"

"But he is the emperor."

"It's fine if you don't regard him as the emperor. Everyone has two shoulders and one head, and it's nothing special."

"I think so too, but I'm afraid that if I'm presumptuous, he'll cut off my head."

"Then you..."

Before Jiang Zhao finished speaking, he was interrupted by the emperor's voice.

"What are you two talking about, whispering."

Jiang Zhao said with a smile: "Jiu Qi said he admired your looks, and when I saw you today, it really is like a god descending from the earth."

Thousands of wears, no flattery.

Sure enough, after the emperor heard this, Longyan was delighted.

"You're an interesting friend."

Jiu Qi laughed together, besides laughing, he really didn't know how to react, and now his mind was almost numb.

The emperor thought this person was really interesting, it was the first time he had seen such a timid person.

After dinner, the emperor got up.

"I heard that there will be a lantern festival today, so those who sneak out specially should take a good look at it."

Before Jiang Zhao said anything, Wei Chengyun spoke.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, there are many people at the Lantern Festival. You are a body of gold, how can you crowd people with those rough people."

Jiang Zhao nodded and said in agreement.

"Yes, Wang Langjun, let's go home quickly."

If something happened to the emperor, even if it was just scratched a little, then his own crime would be serious.

But the emperor patted Jiang Zhao on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I will pay attention to it myself, let's go quickly, the lantern festival will start soon."

Helpless, as long as you go out with him, you can only pay more attention for a while.

Suzaku Street is extremely lively, and many families come out to play.

Lantern riddles and poetry meeting, everyone was dazzled when they played together.

Jiang Zhao walked under a lantern, which was a lotus flower lantern, quite gorgeously made.

There is a lantern riddle written on it.

"The waning moon, the Big Dipper, and the sinking of the stars."

Jiang Zhao read the lantern riddles above.

The emperor leaned over curiously: "Does Jiang Qing know the answer to this lantern riddle?"

Jiang Zhao nodded: "It's a word Qin."

The peddler at the side immediately laughed and said, "Lang Jun is really amazing, he is indeed a good character."

Then he took off the lotus lantern and handed it to Jiang Zhao: "Your lord has guessed the lantern riddle of this lantern, then this lotus lantern will be given to you as a gift."

Jiang Zhao took the lotus lantern: "Thank you."

The emperor went to another lamp, the lantern riddle on it at the beginning of the year.

"This character is extraordinary with only four strokes. It has no horizontal, straight, or hooked lines. The emperor will stand up when he sees it, and the saint will salute when he sees it."

"I really want to know what the word is that can speak such wild words."

"It's the word father."

Jiang Zhao received it casually.

A flash of amazement flashed in the emperor's eyes. Although the answer to the mystery was not difficult, even he would have to think for a while before he knew the answer.

Jiang Zhao was able to say the answer casually.

Xiao Er took down the lamp and gave it to her, and Jiang Zhao then handed it to Jiu Qi.

"Isn't that lamp for me?"

He originally thought that Jiang Zhao would give him the lamp, but who would have thought that she would hand it to Jiu Qi casually.

Jiang Zhao was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect the emperor to like lamps.

"Let me guess another lamp for you."

Then Jiang Zhao walked under another lamp, planning to guess the riddle.

"I want that one."

said the emperor.

Jiang Zhao looked at the lamp in Jiuqi's hand, and Jiuqi also looked at the lamp in his own hand.

Then he handed it out decisively: "Here you are."

Wei Chengyun went up to take the lamp and handed it to the emperor respectfully with both hands.

After the emperor took the lamp, he said, "This lamp is more beautiful."

The two carried the lanterns and continued to move forward.

There was also a poetry meeting ahead.

There are already many talented people on stage to participate.

"Jiang Qing, you are talented in poetry. If you go up, you will be the first."

said the emperor.

"Lang Jun is joking, I have little talent and learning, how can I compare with those talented scholars and beautiful ladies."

Be humble when you should be humble.

"I think today's poetry meeting, if you don't participate, it will lose a lot of fun."

The emperor was looking forward to what poem Jiang Zhao would write today.

Jiang Zhao was also very happy about the excitement, she looked at Si Mubai.

"Brother Mubai, are you interested in participating with me?"

"Tian Ran, if you go up, I won't go. With you here, the poems I write are simply nonsense."

He used to think that he was good at poetry, but after meeting Jiang Zhao, he seldom wrote poems, so don't humiliate yourself.

"Brother Mu Bai's literary talent should not be underestimated, how can you feel inferior?"

"It's not inferiority, it's just trying to save face for myself."

He was telling the truth.

If he didn't go, Jiang Zhao couldn't force him to go, so he had to turn around and go on stage.

The stage of the poetry meeting is divided into two parts, one part is where gentlemen stay, and the other part is where young ladies stay.

The place where the little ladies were was surrounded by large screens, making it hard for people to see the true content inside.

There is no way, the feudal dynasty is that women cannot easily show their faces in public.

Fortunately, Jiang Zhao was wearing men's clothing today, so she was assigned to the place where the gentlemen stayed.

After standing still, Zhu Ganzi, the host of Jiang Zhao's previous life, stood up and said passionately.

"Today is the Shangyuan Festival. It is really a grand event for all the gentlemen and ladies to gather here, so today is a special poetry meeting!"

"This year's poetry meeting will take this Shangyuan Festival as the theme, and I invite all the gentlemen and ladies to write a poem or a poem."

There were many people in the audience, and after hearing the title of the poetry meeting, there were many discussions.

"In previous years, it was all about flowers and moons. Why is it suddenly named Shangyuan Festival this year?"

"Today is the Shangyuan Festival, and the theme of Shangyuan Festival is appropriate."

"That's right, but I don't know what poems the ladies and gentlemen on the stage will make."

"Those who can stand on the stage are all talented and beautiful, and the poems they want to write will not be too bad."

"I just don't know who will win the first prize of this year's poetry meeting."

"I heard that this year's poetry meeting's first award is a warm jade pendant that third-rank warriors carry with them. Wearing it on the body can nourish and straighten the body, which is helpful for cultivation."

"Those gentlemen on the stage are all Confucian and Taoist monks. What do they want the jade pendant of martial arts for?"

"This jade pendant can not only warm up the body, but also block the attacks of the fifth-rank cultivators and below when encountering danger."
