From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 205

"This sister is extremely talented, but I don't know how to address her!"

Princess Qinshui couldn't help it. She was unwilling to not get to know such a woman.

This question obviously asked what everyone was thinking, and they all laughed.

Only a few women with higher status recognized Princess Qinshui's identity, and they all bowed and said, "Hello, Princess!"

This shout was incredible. The faces of the people around changed, and they also bowed.

Princess Qinshui waved her hand and said, "Today is a poetry gathering, we are all poetry friends, no need to be polite."

After speaking, she looked at Zhao Jianjia again and smiled, "Sister, you haven't answered my question yet!"

Zhao Jianjia smiled gently and said, "Hello, Princess. My surname is Zhao, my name is Jianjia, and I am from Yunzhou in Jiangnan."

Princess Qinshui was delighted and couldn't help saying, "What a beautiful name, Jianjia... Yes, only a girl like my sister is worthy of these two words."

Mrs. Wang was a big mouth, and she immediately said, "My sister Jianjia is the only daughter of Zhao Cheng, the top scholar of the last Jinke."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar all around, and everyone exclaimed.

"She turned out to be the daughter of Mr. Zhao. I am really disrespectful!"

Tang Yizhao hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhao is very talented and his articles are beautiful. I often read them and can't bear to put them down."

The scholars around him also talked about it. After all, Zhao Cheng was a leader among the scholars, with high popularity and many fans.

"It turned out to be the daughter of Mr. Zhuangyuan. No wonder her poetry is so outstanding. We are convinced!"

While everyone was talking, Zhao Jianjia naturally became the group's favorite.

She was a little shy, but overall she looked generous. She smiled and bowed to everyone, and said softly: "Jianjia just read a few books casually. I don't deserve your praise. I just liven up the atmosphere."

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone liked her even more.

Princess Qinshui's eyes were already full of peach blossoms. She looked at Zhao Jianjia infatuatedly and murmured, "So you are from a famous family. No wonder, no wonder you can give birth to such a beautiful and elegant woman."

"Shy but not pretentious, generous but gentle, with such a good appearance, and well-educated, proficient in poetry."

She couldn't help but walk to Zhao Jianjia's side and said with a smile, "Sister Jianjia, I like your poems very much. If you have the chance, you must come to my princess's mansion to talk. Don't refuse."

Zhao Jianjia thought that she didn't have many friends in Shenjing. It would be good if she could make a few friends, and she could also help her husband.

So she chuckled and said, "Your Highness is too polite. How dare I be disrespectful."

Princess Qinshui said, "Don't say such things. I treat you as my sister. You might as well call me sister. Besides, you are the daughter of the top scholar. How can you call me a commoner?"

Zhao Jianjia didn't know why the princess in front of her was so approachable, but with so many people watching, she could only nod and say, "Sister..."

"Hey! Good sister!"

Princess Qinshui took Zhao Jianjia's hand and thought to herself, "It's so soft! So delicate!"

At the same time, she smiled and said, "Today, sister will take you to have a good time in this Jingwang Mansion!"

Zhao Jianjia always felt that something was wrong, but she could only smile awkwardly.

On the other side, Guan Caixi sneered again and again, and had already made up her mind.

She looked at Cai Ni and smiled, "Sister, this is your master's original wife, can you see it clearly?"

Cai Ni's smile was a little disappointed, but she still nodded and said, "Sister Jianjia is talented, even better than me."

Guan Caixi said, "Zhou Yuan, this guy, doesn't keep such a good wife, and is still dishonest to you, just wait and see how I will deal with him."

"Don't!"

Cai Ni hurriedly said, "Sister Xi, don't blame the master, I did all this voluntarily, I just hope the master is happy, don't I hope he will be sad.

Guan Caixi gritted her teeth and said, "Sister, it's not a good idea to always be like this. If you really like that person, you should let Zhao Jianjia know you are the one, otherwise you can only be a maid in the future."

"Your sister Xi is not a mean person, but I must help you with this today!"

The poetry meeting continued, and more scholars wrote poems one after another. Although the quality was not as good as Zhao Jianjia and the champion Tang Yichao, they were also excellent works. After all, they could pass the imperial examination. That can't be fake.

Princess Qinshui said, "It's almost enough to chant plum blossoms. Let's change the topic. Why not chant snow!"

After that, she leaned close to Zhao Jianjia's ear and whispered, "Sister Jianjia, you can write a poem about snow and let those men take a good look!"

Zhao Jianjia felt her ears itchy, and she felt more and more that something was wrong, so she shrank her head subconsciously.

Princess Qinshui was even more pleased when she saw her shy look. What a good girl from Jiangnan!

"As for poetry! I think you are all mediocre!"

The sudden words made Princess Qinshui look pale.She suddenly looked up.

She saw Guan Caixi, her brows furrowed, and she whispered, "Why is this damn girl here too!"

Many scholars and boudoir girls were puzzled and dissatisfied.

Guan Caixi wanted this effect. She strode into the field and smiled, "I didn't say this, but our commander of the North City Army, Lord Zhou."

Tang Yizhao asked in confusion, "Lord Zhou? Who is it?"

Guan Caixi turned around and said, "Hey! Commander Zhou! Someone is calling you!"

Zhou Yuan was chatting with Xiong Kuohai about the current situation in Dajin, and didn't pay attention to the situation over there. When he heard the voice, he stood up subconsciously.

He asked in confusion, "What? Who called me?"

After he finished speaking, he saw Zhao Jianjia's quiet eyes.

Zhou Yuan was stunned, and thought to himself that it was over.

He knew that he had been tricked by Guan Caixi, the stinky girl.

Countless eyes were focused on him, and with Jianjia's pitiful expression, Zhou Yuan had no choice but to walk over.

He laughed dryly at Cai Ni, then looked at everyone and said, "I am Zhou Yuan. Who is looking for me?"

Everyone looked unhappy and did not reply.

Princess Qinshui also frowned. Is it this person? This kid can really meet him everywhere!

Tang Yichao was very kind and bowed, saying, "Sir, you said that the poems we wrote were too mediocre. We did not refute it, but we were ashamed of ourselves."

"But since you have a lot of ideas, why not write a poem to open our eyes?"

You said we didn't write well, why don't you write one and let us see it!

That's obviously what he meant!

Zhou Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that Guan Caixi was playing tricks.

So he laughed and said, "I didn't say anything, and I can't write poetry. I'm a military officer. You guys can play your own games, don't bother with me."

"Really!"

A calm voice suddenly sounded, and a young man laughed and said, "Why has Lord Zhou become timid? I heard that when you were in Yunzhou at the beginning of the year, you were so arrogant that you said poetry was a minor art and you didn't want to do it."

Guan Caixi's eyes lit up. She didn't expect that someone would speak for her. She immediately said, "So, he also said what he said just now. Why don't you dare to admit it?"

The people around him immediately started to talk about it, and some even pointed at Zhou Yuan and cursed him secretly.

Tang Yizhao smiled and said softly, "I have heard of the North City Military Command. As Lord Zhou said, poetry is a minor art. I don't refute it. After all, everyone has their own ambitions!"

"Let's write some poems and explore the minor art. Lord Zhou is digging manure all over the city, that's the main art."

As soon as this was said, more than a hundred people present couldn't help laughing.

"Hahahaha!"

"Interesting, interesting!"

"Not bad, not bad, Master Zhou, you should go and dig manure, poetry is not for you."

Zhou Yuan frowned slightly, he was worried that the situation could not be controlled, not himself, but...

"Shut up!"

Cai Ni's face was as cold as ice, and she said in a cold voice: "How good is the young master's poetry, do you need to judge it by you, the inferior scholars? The poems you wrote together are not as good as one of the young master's!"

She had already revealed her murderous intention, her fists were clenched, and her internal force began to surge.

After all, in Cai Ni's view, Zhou Yuan is everything, and no one can slander him.

Things became complicated, Zhou Yuan also had a headache, and couldn't help but say to Guan Caixi: "Come on, there is trouble!"

Guan Caixi gritted her teeth and said: "That's because you have a problem."

"Sister Xi!"

Cai Ni frowned and said: "Please don't say it anymore, it's too much, I said I don't want to embarrass the young master!"
