Chapter 643
The palace servants lit the incense, and everyone waited silently.

Silence and watching, Tang Xueyi was flustered, but she had no choice but to shoot, and she could only force herself to think hard at the moment, but the more urgent the more anxious, the more anxious her mind went blank.

Seeing that the stick of incense burned out, she couldn't even think of a decent poem, let alone a masterpiece.

"My daughter...Admit defeat." Tang Xueyi said with a pale face and gritted her teeth.

A word of admitting defeat is like a resounding slap directly on her face, and in front of so many people, she Tang Xueyi, the daughter of Xiangfu, the future Princess Rui, the number one talented woman sought after by everyone in the entire capital, has never A moment as humiliating and humiliating as now.

"Continue to think about it." Emperor Zhaowen didn't intend to let it go. Since he dared to question him in front of him, he had to bear the bitterness of questioning.

Tang Xueyi's complexion became even paler, and she plopped on the ground, "My daughter..."

"I said, keep thinking." Emperor Zhaowen ordered with a cold face, "After this incense stick is burned, it will be continued, and it will also make up for the time from when everyone started to write poems to when they stopped writing." Emperor Zhaowen And said.

"twitter."

For a moment, everyone was as quiet as a cicada, and they buried their heads lower one after another, constantly reducing their sense of existence, for fear that Emperor Zhaowen's anger would burn on their heads.

Wen Dongnuan also lowered her head and waited quietly. At this moment, Tang Xueyi looked very pitiful, but that was all her own fault, and she was not worthy of pity.

A total of three sticks of incense were burned, during which time the entire Xuemei Garden was silent except for the sound of snow falling.

"Have you figured it out?" Emperor Zhaowen finally asked.

"My daughter can't figure it out, my daughter admits defeat." After saying this, Tang Xueyi felt a sense of relief.

"The leader of today's poetry competition..."

"Miss Wen deserves the top spot, and my daughter-in-law is convinced." Tang Xueyi answered.

Only then did Emperor Zhaowen nod his head, "Since that's the case, Wen Dongnuan will be the winner of today's poetry meeting. As for the lottery, if you haven't given it yet, you can send someone to Wenfu after the banquet."

"My daughter obeys the order."

"The rewards from me and the empress will be delivered later." Emperor Zhaowen said to Wen Dongnuan, his voice was obviously much gentler than when he spoke to Tang Xueyi before, and he could even speak softly, as if he was afraid of scaring Wen Dong warm.

It can be heard that Dong Nuan doesn't think such kindness is good.

"Minister, thank the emperor for your grace, and thank you for your empress's grace." Wen Dongnuan knelt down on the ground again and kowtowed in thanks.

Emperor Zhaowen frowned, he still couldn't hear the joy in her voice, could it be that he was frightened by his appearance just now?
"Wen Dongnuan, the daughter of the Liu family, is dignified in appearance, blue-hearted in quality, and talented in catkins. She is specially named the head of Mingyang County and rewarded with a thousand taels of gold."

Everyone was stunned, the banquet is held every year, and the poetry meeting is also held in almost every banquet, so I don’t know how many people won the first prize. Take Tang Xueyi as an example, almost every poetry meeting in the past two or three years. She is the leader here.

There are also rewards, but they are basically gold, silver and jewelry. It can be heard that Dongnuan not only won so many prizes this time, but was directly named the county lord by the Holy One.

This great honor is not hers!Tang Xueyi knelt on the ground, knocked her head to the ground, clenched her fists tightly in her sleeves, her nails were so deep that they dug into her palms, Wen Dong Nuan!
