Chapter 253

"it is good!"

Queen Situ smiled meaningfully at her.

Looking around again, they landed on the luxuriant peony flowers in front of them, and they were full of smiles: "Since today is a flower viewing party, let's use the word 'flower' as an order, what do you think?"

"Okay! The concubines come first."

Concubine Liang, who was sitting on the queen's left, responded readily, and her eyes fell on the budding pond in the distance: "The bamboo-colored stream is not green, but the lotus is fragrant in the mirror."

As she spoke, she looked at Concubine De on her left with a smile. Concubine De pursed her lips and smiled confidently: "Ziyan half-opened the fence and chrysanthemums are quiet, and the red clothes are all falling down to Zhu Lianchou."

"Okay!" A concubine who was next in line answered, "I'm afraid that I will fall asleep late at night, so I burned high candles to illuminate my red makeup."

"There is no choice but to fall, and it seems that Yan is returning."

"The small building listens to the spring rain all night, and the deep lane sells apricot flowers in the Ming Dynasty."

"Hibiscus flower at the end of the wood, red calyx in the mountains."

……

I have to say that the women in the harem are really talented.

When the queen issued a flower order, the concubines shook their heads and chanted, as if they were all poets.

Mu Lianyi understood it. It turns out that the drinking order is to make two lines with "flower" in it!Isn't that simple?
When I was studying, although she was not one of the top academics in the school, she also memorized a lot of poems and essays under the torture of the Chinese teacher. As for the poems with flowers, she was familiar with them.

When everyone's focus fell on her, Mu Lianyi smiled and said: "Don't let people praise you for your good looks, but leave a clean air to fill the universe."

Concubine Liang on the opposite side frowned: "Princess Xiangyang, there are no flower characters in your poem, nor does it imply the meaning of flowers?"

"Yeah, you lost, you will be punished with alcohol." Concubine Xian urged, smiling maliciously.

Mu Lianyi smiled, met the complicated eyes of the noble concubine, and then fell on the sneering empress, she said softly: "My family washes the inkstone pond head tree, and the flowers are blooming with light ink marks. Don't let people praise your color , leaving only pure energy to fill the universe. Ladies and gentlemen, this poem is called "Momei". I don't know if you think you can pass the test?"

"..." Concubine Liang and Concubine Xian looked at each other, unable to refute.

The imperial concubine smiled and said: "Of course it counts! Yi'er is very talented, everyone only thought of two lines of poems, and you came up with the whole poem at once, who wins if you don't count? Right, sister?"

The queen snorted and smiled forcedly.

The drinking order is still going on, and the remaining people have passed the test no matter whether they are good poems or far-fetched coping.

Ever since, the queen punished herself with a glass of wine.The official was replaced by the noble concubine Nalan.

Seeing that Mu Lianyi could easily answer the queen's question, Nalan was relieved a lot.So, he looked at Mu Lianyi with a smile: "I have heard about King Xiangyang and his beloved Princess Xiangyang, and you are newlyweds. How about this? Let's take love as the topic and talk about how to get along between men and women, how about it?"

"..." Mu Lianyi felt ashamed when she heard the words, God, this imperial concubine actually wanted to test the relationship between her and Hua Qingyi, right?
What's the way to get along? Since that guy got married, besides torturing her, he tossed her!
Mu Lianyi touched the dark circles under her eyes skillfully covered by makeup, feeling depressed.

The queen nodded, and looked at Mu Lianyi with deep meaning, and the other concubines also echoed.

It's just that this time the person sitting on the left of the imperial concubine is Mu Lianyi, and she was the first to compose a poem.

Concubine Mu was depressed again - no one set an example for her, she was really a bit uncertain.

Because she didn't know where the bottom line of these palace women's views on love was, she could only choose to say implicitly: "A moonlit night with a curtain of dreams, and the spring breeze is full of tenderness."

After finishing speaking, there was silence all around.

Mu Lianyi looked around, feeling more depressed.

In her opinion, such verses are very gray and implicit.However, these women in front of them blushed!I'm blushing!
Depend on!Didn't people say "a moonlit night with a curtain of dreams, a tree of pear blossoms pressing down on begonias", are they shy?

The imperial concubine was the first to recover from her astonishment.She turned her eyes, and winked at a concubine on Mu Lianyi's left. The concubine understood, and hurriedly said, "Princess Xiangyang is really talented, and it's the concubine's turn. Um... a thousand gold buys a woman like a gift, and her pulse Who will complain about this situation."

"Lovesickness is without words, don't spend tears on flowers."

"If there is a bosom friend who sees it, I will sing Yangchun all over the place."

……

With the imperial concubine's signal, the concubines sitting in Mu Lianyi's place wrote poems one after another to receive the order.

Mu Lianyi secretly wiped off a cold sweat: Well, don't look at these concubines with revealing clothes and gleeful eyes, they are really conservative in terms of lyrics.

Or maybe it's because the empress and concubine are here, they are a bit jealous, afraid of arousing their jealousy.

The way of getting along in the harem is really subtle. Mu Lianyi said that she doesn't understand it, and it's best not to need to understand it for the rest of her life.

After a game, a concubine on the queen's side made a mistake because of distraction, was fined with three glasses of wine, and danced a Jinghong dance.

The next ordering officer is Concubine Xian, and Concubine Xian is from the empress's side, so there will be some temptations and difficulties.Fortunately, Mu Lianyi memorized too many poems and essays, so she managed them easily.

It was almost noon, and the early summer sun had begun to evaporate its scorching heat.

The palace people placed large ice cubes in the garden, the temperature was not high, but the sun was too glaring.Mu Lianyi only slept for an hour last night, and now she was exposed to the sun, yawning again and again.

Empress Situ finally found an excuse to teach her a lesson: "Princess Xiangyang, it's a good thing that you are talented, but everyone here is your elder. You show contempt in front of your elders, this is You Cheng. The maiden etiquette handed over by the adults?"

"The concubine is terrified!" Mu Lianyi roared in her heart: "I despise Nimei!"Is it wrong to play such a boring game with you when you are so sleepy?
That's right, she was very disdainful in her heart!
But she couldn't show any disrespect on her face, she smiled lightly and said, "Forgive me, empress, Yi'er is just a little sleepy."

"Presumptuous! The Empress didn't say anything, so what did you, a young concubine, say? You said you have no respect, and you really have no respect!" Concubine Xian's face turned serious, and she spoke harshly to Mu Lianyi.It was as if Mu Lianyi said something disrespectful.

Mu Lianyi was depressed: "Concubine Xian misunderstood Yi'er..."

The noble concubine Nalan laughed softly: "Sister Empress, Sister Xianfei, don't you two understand? Yi'er is newly married, and the King of Xiangyang dotes on her again. There is a reason for her lack of energy and physical fatigue. Hey, speaking of it, I'm a little tired too! How about this, in order not to disturb the joy of my sisters and sisters, Bengong and Yi'er will go back to Xianglin Palace first, you guys, have fun."

"..." The queen's face was dark and she didn't speak.
