C19 False Catering

In fact, this was not really a friendly speech. However, the words that came out of his mouth were somewhat thought-provoking. The people who came here were intelligent people, so they naturally wouldn't say anything against the imperial power.

"Writing out His Majesty's praises, that's too much of an exaggeration." At this moment, Su Ruyuan was already maintaining an expression of neither arrogance nor discouragement. This kind of mental state could be considered rare, but at most she was thinking about praise in her heart. Very few people would actually praise her a few times.

Rong Ji looked at the emperor but wasn't too clear on what the emperor was planning to do. He didn't seem to know where he was, so he carefully looked at the emperor. However, he saw that the emperor was smiling happily.

"Thank you, royal father, for your praise." In the end, Rong Ji only said those words. As for how he understood it, that was entirely up to him. Naturally, those words were said by him alone. Success caused an uproar in the crowd.

But it was obvious that the Emperor didn't dare act rashly in his seat of honor, and there was a constant stream of quiet discussion. The Emperor glanced over the crowd and said, "Then continue on down. I've heard that the Prime Minister's daughter is also quite capable."

Later on, there was no need for the Emperor to call upon the ladies of each family. They would advance according to their ranking, and in fact, it was just the order in which they ascended the throne and obtained the official status.

However, everyone's praise and applause were controlled within a certain range. Even if it was their own children, they had to try their best not to show off their abilities. After all, if it was not unexpected, the first place would definitely be decided by the second lady of the Su family.

After all, that young lady of the Su family seemed to have obtained the approval of the prince. Moreover, with the Emperor's words, who would be able to compete with her?

If it was a fair place, it would be this kind of banquet where both men and women would go on stage to display their skills. Even if it was a man, he would need to perform a few poems or sword blossoms on the stage.

In terms of talent, perhaps no one would be able to compare to the glory seasons. However, the glory seasons did not have any thoughts about such things, so the glory seasons would not participate in such things even annually. As for the child that the emperor liked the most, naturally, he would not say anything about it.

Those geniuses naturally did not want to see a person who was clearly much more outstanding than them casually crushing him. Therefore, no one had any objections about not participating in the season.

Of course, there were a few stubborn ones who insisted on battling with the season. Although the season didn't want to appear in front of everyone, but if they were to privately ask, the season would be more than willing to do so, so gradually no one had any objections.

After a bunch of words, the curtain finally fell. No matter how one put it, letting a group of people who knew how to compose poems with the help of scenery was indeed inferior to those in the female seats.

After all, even if someone knew how to play the flute or the zither, almost no one would be willing to be this sort of 'foil'. Therefore, they would naturally choose to boast about their own so-called culture and grandeur.

Actually, the so-called guzheng was more or less like a prostitute in the man's heart. However, the crowd naturally wouldn't say it out loud. Didn't they see that they would return Su Ruirui's melody to her in the middle of the season?

Of course, Rong Qing and Rong Teng didn't participate in this kind of thing. After all, the Emperor didn't want his own prince to embarrass himself. No matter what, he was still his own child, so naturally he looked at him more precious.

As for how to judge a person or two, that was a rare impartial method. No one took out two lotuses, and one flower was placed in front of the jar of the person whom the female seats praised, and the male seats were also like that.

This time, it was also the same as usual, but there were some differences. It was that there was a large vat in front of the male seats during the season of honor. In the past, they wouldn't even participate in the season of honor.

As for who would be number one, many people knew in their hearts. After all, no matter how one put it, most people knew clearly in their hearts that there was a gap that was fair, and as for the few people that did not, they would be asking for trouble.

Sure enough, the flowers in the male seating area almost spilled out of the vat. However, most of the women had already voted for the season so that they couldn't help praising the allure of the season. As for the male seating area, most of the people had voted for the season.

After all, it was necessary to win over the prince. Even if Rong Jun didn't care much about it, he would still vote for the prince. Putting aside his status as the prince, it was extremely rare for him to make a song out of a leaf.

Thus, it was fair to vote for Rong Ji, and the majority of the female seats were naturally placed in front of Su Ruyuan. After all, this was something that the Emperor had praised before, and it was even something that Rong Ji had helped to accompany her.

"Rong Season, 71 votes to 1, Hua Qing, 23 votes to 2, Su Muqing, 11 votes to 3."

"Su Ruyuan, forty-seven votes for first place, Gu Xiaoxiao, forty-five votes for second, Mo Qing, thirty-two votes for third."

Compared to the difference between the male seats, the female seats were much more concentrated. In fact, the one who was most stunning was not Su Ruyuan. To a certain extent, Su Ruyuan could be considered to have borrowed some momentum, but the one called Gu Xiaoxiao was completely reliant on her stunning beauty.

It was clearly not that difficult to play a song of 'High Mountains and Running Water', yet everyone had restrained their emotions. This caused people to be unable to help themselves from praising it, as if they had truly heard of great mountains and flowing water.

As for Mo Qing, he did what his name suggested. As he danced, he threw out all his ink. Even though the final product wasn't that beautiful, he still won by creating something new.

However, most of the praises still revolved around the Su Clan. After all, one son and one daughter both obtained a placing. The only one who did not obtain a ranking was not because he was not outstanding, but because he did not appear.

Naturally, they had nothing else to do after they received the reward. In fact, for the audience, the prize was just a secondary thing. The most important thing was to show his face in front of everyone.

Su Ruyuan's promise to Gu Hongzhuang and her subsequent reward could be considered as extremely rare.

Even though the feast was over, Gu Hongzhuang did not know what it was. The current Gu Hongzhuang was still in the room, attending to her body that could not be considered to be broken. There was truly a hint of ridicule.

"Rongfu, today is the banquet." Gu Hong Yan smiled mockingly as she looked at the ceiling. Unknowingly, some emotions had seeped through her. It was as if she heard Gu Hong Yan's voice and thought that she was calling her name.

"Miss, what's wrong?" Gu Hong Yan shook her head and chuckled, "It's nothing. Don't be so surprised. I'm just a little hot, not dying." Even if they died, it wasn't like they had never died before.

Naturally, Gu Hongzhuang would not say the latter part of the sentence. Even if Gu Hongzhuang had said it out loud, very few people would have believed it. At most, they would have thought that Gu Hongzhuang's brain was burnt through.

"Miss, you said that Second Miss and the others will go smoothly, right?" He didn't know why, but he suddenly opened his mouth and spoke. Gu Hong Yan frowned slightly as she glanced at the painting, "It will definitely go smoothly. It's just that there's a problem with Mu Qing's hands."

It was just that due to the injuries on his hand, Su Muqing's writing the brush was extremely troublesome. In the end, there was even a mistake, even though the mistake was to turn the mistake into the finishing touch. There was nothing wrong with writing poems.

Only after looking at Gu Hong Yan for a few more moments did Ru Tu return to her seat. In reality, Gu Hong Yan's words were heard by her. As for the first part of the Brilliant Brilliance Art, she heard it even more clearly.

Could it be that her young mistress had fallen in love with the book of honor? "That won't do, the madame said that no matter who the young lady marries, the madame will not oppose it. Only the people of the royal family are an exception, but the young lady doesn't seem to want to know. Why is that?"

At this moment, Gu Hongzhuang naturally didn't know that a single sentence from her had caused the painting to fall into deep thought. Even if Gu Hongzhuang knew, she wouldn't care. At most, she would just laugh it off.

During the banquet, Su Ruyuan was naturally exceptionally happy. After all, she had already completed her promise to elder sister and obtained first place, as well as tribute. She hoped that she could make elder sister happy.

No matter how quiet Big Sis was before, she would not be like now. Now, when she said she was happy, it was naturally very nice, but when she was unhappy, she seemed to be more aloof and unapproachable than before.

Su Ruyuan didn't know why, but even if she had guessed correctly, she wouldn't have been able to guess that the inside of Su Suo's body had changed.

It wasn't a quiet temperament, so Su Ruyuan naturally wouldn't stay at this banquet for too long. After saying a few words to Mother Su, she immediately left. Actually, Su Ruyuan didn't like fake things like this.

This was because Su Ruyuan could sometimes see the malice shining in the other party's eyes, but she was still speaking kindly words. This kind of person was the person Su Ruyuan disliked the most, and during the banquet, this kind of person could be found everywhere.

Thus, he chose to avoid this, especially since Su Ruyuan had coincidentally obtained first place. There were even more people to deal with, so many that Su Ruirong didn't even want to bother with them. However, these people weren't willing to let Su Ruyuan go so easily.
