My Sisters Excel in Both Literary and Martial Arts - Chapter 177

[Chapter 177: Not as good-looking as you (fourth update)]

Seeing Jing Zhe beating Qi Junguang speechless, Emperor An was delighted. He thought that evil people must be punished by evil people. At the same time, he couldn’t help but imagine that above the court, He is also often said to be at a loss by ministers who hold real power. If there is such a strong man with a sharp tongue around him, the situation will be much better, right?

As soon as this idea came up, it couldn’t go away.

The three judges said “I am not as good as him”, coupled with Qi Junguang’s anger, the result of the second competition was already obvious.

Under Zhu Xinning’s instructions, Wang Yingqiu read out the results of the promotion, and then looked at the three of them, “Do you have any objections?”

The only person eliminated was Zhou Zhiwei. This guy has become a fanboy ever since he saw Jing Zhe’s name. , one moment he said “Brother Jing’s handwriting is so good”, the other moment he said “Brother Jing taught me cursive writing, come back to Jinxi and see how I can show off” and other such slanderous remarks, how can you have any objection?

Seeing this, Wang Yingqiu smiled and said: “In that case, please wait for a while for those who have advanced, let’s take a short rest and then get on the boat!”

As soon as these words came out, there was a “hurrah”, and the many talents who had gathered in the back courtyard just now, It exploded instantly, and people scrambled to run outside.

It turns out that although the boat is big, only a few people can get on it.

In addition to the two finalists, members of the royal family, three judges, and the host Wang Yingqiu, the rest are the female disciples from the outer chamber of Wuxian Garden and the personal guards led by Sui Shouren. One is responsible for singing and dancing, and the other is responsible for guarding the ship. human safety.

The other talents rushed out in a swarm to seize the most favorable terrain on both sides of the river, so that when the boat passed by, they could hear the lyrics and music coming from it.

In an instant, the back courtyard, which was slightly crowded just now, became deserted and deserted. Only Zhang Xiaoyu stood there alone, looking at Jing Zhe pitifully.

Since he said that he would take her to see the poetry show, Jing Zhe naturally wanted to go all the way and asked Emperor An for mercy: “Your Majesty, this is Zhang Xiaoyu, the eldest lady of Zhangjia Winery. Boat?”

At this time, someone opened the corner of the screen, and a little head peeked out, and then quietly retreated without anyone noticing.

“Your Highness, I’m not as good-looking as you!”

Seeing Su Mochen glare, Guizhi realized that he had said the wrong thing and hurriedly waved his hands, “No, I’m prettier than you! Oh, that’s not right, it’s just…not good-looking anyway! “

Su Mochen didn’t believe her either. He pulled up his corner and looked out, then glared at Guizhi: “Isn’t this good-looking? How much more good-looking do you want?” But he

secretly said: This bastard…

seeing Jing Zhu Xinning was quite disgusted that Zhe actually begged Emperor An for a woman, and the corners of his mouth pursed involuntarily.

Emperor An didn’t expect that Jing Zhe was still a passionate person. He thought it would be okay to have one more woman on board. He was about to agree when he saw Zhang Xiaoyu pulling Jing Zhe’s arm and whispered: “No need, young master! I can come here with you.” , Xiaoyu is already very happy! Xiaoyu will go home now, and the young master can go to the poetry meeting with peace of mind!”

Zhang Xiaoyu is already satisfied that Jing Zhe can plead with Emperor An for himself in front of so many people, and he doesn’t want to do it again at this time. Influence him, say goodbye and prepare to leave.

But Jing Zhe stopped her, “It’s so late, how can you make people feel at ease when you go back as a woman?”

Then he begged Emperor An, “Your Majesty, can General Sui send a bodyguard to send her back?”

Emperor An thought. After

thinking for a while, “Okay, by the way, I will bring some jars of liquor back from Zhang’s house. How can we go on a boat cruise to enjoy the moon without the company of fine wine?”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

Then, Sui Shouren called a few personal guards to come out and bring them out. Zhang Xiaoyu sent it back.

Just giving away a few jars of strong liquor as a gift, Jing Zhe felt that he was at a loss, looked at Emperor An and asked: “Your Majesty, this wine money…”

Although it is a royal business, Jing Zhe has never seen a penny of the royal silver, so he has empty gloves. Bai Lang, Jing Zhe doesn’t agree.

Emperor An immediately glared at him, “You blackmailed Wu Yong for two thousand taels of silver and I didn’t even ask for it from you. You drank several jars of strong wine from you, but you still want to ask me for money?”

“Uh~”

Jing Zhe scratched his head, “Your Majesty I misunderstood. I originally wanted to pay for the wine, but since your majesty mentioned it, the common people have to explain it properly! “

“The two thousand taels of silver are compensation for the government’s seizure of the Zhang family and the delay in the production of spirits. They are not stolen. No robbery, the source is normal, and it didn’t go into my pocket. Liquor is a royal business, and the transaction should be formal. If you take it casually, you may break the rules. In this way, if your majesty doesn’t want to pay for these bottles of liquor today, the common people will pay for it. It’s money!”

Jing Zhe said generously.

“…”

Emperor An was stunned for a moment. He wanted to expose him several times, but finally held back. He thought to himself that he was a dignified emperor, but when did he have the mood to argue with such a naughty person?

Yes, Jing Zhe at this time looked like a rogue to Emperor An, but not so annoying.

It’s just a thought, I will rely on him to write lyrics when he gets on the ship, and it won’t be too late to teach him a lesson when he enters the palace!

Emperor An, who had made up his mind, waved his hand and said with a wry smile: “You don’t need to pay for me. If word spreads, people will think that such a huge royal family is short of your money!”

Jing Zhe smiled happily: “Your Majesty is right! The same is true for ordinary people. I think so!”

“…”

The people around looked at each other, thinking that one dared to give and the other dared to ask.

Only Zhu Xinning pursed her lips, thinking of the child who chased her mother for money when she was a child, and was beaten in the end and refused to give up. She couldn’t help but smile: The problem of greed for money is still there. This is indeed my philosophy. Son!

But thinking about the Jings and his wife, I feel a little sad.

Zhe’er came to Jingzhou, are they okay if they stay alone in Pengzhou?

He also thought of his current mother, Zhu’s mother. If her mother were here, how could she force him to get married?

His eyes became a little dim.

The two guards were very fast and came back in a short while, bringing with them ten jars of liquor. Jing Zhe quickly wrote it down in a small notebook in his mind, preparing to ask An Di for money later.

At this time, Emperor An stood up and began to prepare to board the ship.

When Jing Zhe turned around, he realized that the cloak that stood behind him had disappeared. He immediately realized why Wang Yingqiu asked everyone to take a break. Is this the time just to let Su Mochen board the ship first?

It seems that it will be difficult for Su Mochen to show up at tonight’s poetry meeting. Will she find it boring for such a lively person?

Outside the gate of the backyard of Wuxian Garden is a man-made river bank. At this time, six large boats connected by paintings are parked quietly on the shore. The lights on the boat are dim, and young people wearing white Wuxian Pavilion uniforms can be vaguely seen on the boat. The woman held the pipa and played the guzheng, and the sound of silk and bamboo orchestral music came with the breeze.

The sound touches the ears and makes people emotional.
