Chapter 41 Writing Poems
Princess Duanrong sent people to set up two rows of tables by the lake, with men and women sitting on both sides.

Because Anshun is open to the people, the defense of men and women is not so serious, so no one has any objection to this arrangement.

"Sit down, everyone. I don't pay much attention. You can sit however you like. You don't have to be restrained. You are here to play. Too many rules and regulations will make it boring."

Princess Duanrong said kindly with a smile.

So Qin Mingzhou reached out and took Xie Lanting's hand, and sat down in the last seat.

Xie Lanzhi and Liu Yan sat next to them.

None of the four are pushy, so try to keep a low profile.

The male guests were different, the crown prince sat at the top, and Xu Zian was sitting next to him.

Qin Mingzhou whispered to Xie Lanting, "This Xu Zian was the prince's companion when he was young, and his relationship is extraordinary. When he grows up, the relationship is even more like brotherhood. So the prince will take him with him wherever he goes."

Xie Lanting nodded, so that was the case. At first she was wondering why this man dared to skip others and sit directly next to the prince. There was such a relationship in it.

Although the male guests are more free to sit, they still try to sit according to their family status.

Seeing that everyone was seated, Duanrong clapped his hands. Immediately, a group of maidservants in pink and white dress came from outside, divided into two rows, holding a tray in their hands.

After walking in, Xie Lanting saw the things on the tray clearly and felt a little headache.

"It's pen and ink."

Xie Lanting whispered to Qin Mingzhou.

"Should be playing later, right? Can Sister Ting compose poems?"

Qin Mingzhou watched the maid put down the tray, set up the pens and paper, and looked at Xie Lanting with his chin on his side.

Xie Lanting shook his head numbly: "I can only memorize, but not write."

Hearing her blunt words, Qin Mingzhou smiled, "Sister Ting, why are you so cute?"

"Don't call me cute!"

Xie Lanting gave a stern warning.

As the breeze blew, it lifted a strand of Xie Lanting's hair. Qin Mingzhou grabbed it quickly with his eyes and hands, and then wrapped it around his fingertips to play with.

"Okay, what is what sister Ting said."

Xie Lanting noticed her small movements, but did not stop her.

Soon, paper and pens were arranged in front of everyone.

Duanrong smiled and said, "Everyone understand what I mean?"

The crown prince was the first to speak out: "Auntie wants us to recite poems as a match?"

Duanrong still likes the crown prince born by the empress very much. She even hugged him when she was a child. When she saw him talking, she nodded in a good mood and said, "That's right, today's scenery is just right. Why don't you write a poem? Who will do it?" Yes, I have a lot of rewards."

The prince smiled and said: "It's rare for my aunt to say that, so I have to show it well!"

Duanrong smiled and glanced at him, "Of course, this time the poem is voluntary, with the background of 'Xia', you can write it as you like, and hand it in after a stick of incense. The two parties exchange views and judge the best poem. Yu, how is it?"

Everyone echoed in unison: "Princess, this method is very wonderful."

"Then let's get started."

As she said that, she winked at the maid beside her. The maid understood and put a stick of incense in the incense burner. After lighting it, a faint smoke rose.

Xie Lanting gave up voluntarily, there was no other way, without the talent in this area, she would not have swollen face to pretend to be fat.

However, seeing that Qin Mingzhou didn't move, she asked curiously, "Aren't you going to write?"

Qin Mingzhou glanced at her with a half-smile: "Sister Ting wants to see it?"
