Shen Qinghong: Why am I the only one being disciplined?
Shen Changyuan: Why? Why? You have a million whys!
[Guagua, do you think I should pretend to have been defeated?]
Hearing Shen Mingzhu's heartfelt words, Xiao Yanzhi felt completely relieved.
He thought his money was going to go down the drain again!
I never expected you to be like this, Shen Mingzhu.
[Host, stop with the life-or-death race and the huge surprise! Get to the point and slap them in the face, slap them in the face, slap them in the face!]
Guagua now feels like punching Wang Chuanzong just because he looks so irritating.
Unfortunately, it has no physical form!
Right now, it wishes it could transform into a long whip and lash him out!
That look was absolutely infuriating!
[Guagua, how about I write the second line?]
Go ahead and act recklessly!
Who can surpass you?!
Crown Prince Yan Beichen looked at Shen Mingzhu and felt that she was radiating light.
His Crown Princess is amazing!
The best thing the Emperor did in his life was choosing such a Crown Princess for him.
She is incredibly beautiful, talented, and, most importantly, very interesting.
A beautiful appearance is a dime a dozen, but an interesting soul is one in a million.
How fortunate he is!
Prince An: Money is waving at me!
Tian Xuezhou: I'll use this money to propose marriage to the Duke of Zhenguo!
Very good! ! !
Su Huaiyuan: I learned a lot from Shen Mingzhu today.
Su Jiumei & Tian Pingan: We're just two bystanders!!!
At this moment, Shen Mingzhu gave Wang Chuanzong a provocative smile.
Wang Chuanzong instinctively felt something was wrong.
The next moment, Shen Mingzhu stepped forward and spoke confidently.
"Thousands of years of history flood my mind. I raise my cup to the void and sigh at the surging tides, wondering where the heroes are now!"
The Han dynasty trained its warships, the Tang dynasty erected iron pillars, the Song dynasty wielded jade axes, and the Yuan dynasty traversed leather huts—their great achievements and magnificent feats required immense effort, even to the point of moving mountains.
Even the most magnificent painted beams and jeweled curtains cannot capture the evening rain and morning clouds; broken steles and crumbling monuments are all consigned to the misty haze and setting sun.
All I gain are a few distant chimes, half a river of fishing lights, two lines of autumn geese, and a pillow of frost.
While everyone was still pondering, Shen Mingzhu had already provided the matching line.
"It matches! It matches!"
"Young Miss Shen is amazing!"
"The Crown Princess is a role model for us all, so amazing!"
"Incredible! Absolutely incredible!!!"
"Ahhh! Shen Mingzhu, you are a role model for us women!"
It was unclear whether it was the young lady from Tianxiang Tower who shouted this, but it instantly ignited everyone's enthusiasm.
A continuous round of applause erupted.
Shen Changyuan you are the best.
Yes, my daughter is indeed that capable!
As expected of my offspring, just like me!!!
Chen Mu Xie Qinghuan: Where's your face?!
Shen Changyuan: Cough cough cough... Madam, please give me some face!
Many students clapped their hands excitedly, and some even danced with joy, showing just how excited they were!
Wang Chuanzong carefully savored Shen Mingzhu's second line of the couplet; she had indeed matched it perfectly!
She actually matched!
He took a few steps back, unable to believe it!
In this round, Shen Mingzhu clearly won!
"Little sister is the best!"
[Host, you're amazing! You're the best host for Guagua, yay!!!]
[Guagua, keeping a low profile!!!]
Because of Shen Mingzhu's couplets, not only were the Tianxiang Restaurant packed with people, but as more and more couplets were released, the entire street became congested.
Emperor Jingyuan thoughtfully dispatched the Imperial Guards to help resolve the "traffic" issue.
More and more people are flocking here, all wanting to be the first to admire Shen Mingzhu's charm.
The Imperial Palace, the Imperial Study.
"Defu, do you think I should also go out and take a look?"
Wang Defu's eyes darted around, and he said with a smile,
"Your Majesty, the whole world belongs to the king; you may go wherever you wish."
Emperor Jingyuan held the memorial and sighed softly.
"Sigh... The Crown Prince and Prince An are always chasing after the Crown Princess, I need to be more diligent."
"Your Majesty, you truly love the Crown Prince and Prince An."
Emperor Jingyuan: "I watched them grow up..."
Wang Defu stood to the side with a smile.
Ever since Shen Mingzhu revealed that he had a son, and Emperor Jingyuan didn't hold it against him, Wang Defu had become much gentler...
At Tianxianglou, looking at the huge crowd, Shen Mingzhu was calculating how much tea the tea shop could sell today.
Talent is important, reputation is important, and money is important too.
"Young Master Wang, what should we compete in the second round?"
Shen Mingzhu looked at Wang Chuanzong with a smile and asked softly.
[Haha, Guagua, he'd better say he's composing a poem; those two lines would be enough to knock him out!]
[Host, you always seem to be attacking people in their own area of expertise!]
Wang Chuanzong pondered for a moment, then looked at Shen Mingzhu and said...
"Then let's compose a poem!"
Shen Mingzhu smiled.
"Writing poetry is good! Writing poetry is good!"
"Young Master Wang, what are your requirements?"
Wang Chuanzong suggested, "Then let's choose three seasons out of spring, summer, autumn, and winter and write a poem for each season, and then let everyone judge and choose."
"Okay."
Shen Mingzhu appreciated and agreed.
"Young Master Wang, how about we complete this within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn?"
Wang Chuanzong: "No problem!"
[Guagua, looks like we can take our little bit of money and head home early! Yay!!!]
[Host, that's necessary.]
Alright, Guagua, I'm going to find the Crown Prince! I need him to help me write the poem quickly, then I can end this battle!
Shen Mingzhu happily approached Crown Prince Yan Beichen's side.
"Brother Crown Prince, could you please help me with this writing?"
"Mingzhu, it's my honor!"
Prince An couldn't bear to look at his nephew's worthless grin.
He really wants to call his imperial brother to see what his precious son looks like!
The first poem is titled "A Joyful Rain on a Spring Night": Good rain knows its season, falling when spring arrives. It follows the wind into the night, silently nourishing all things. The country paths and clouds are all dark, only the lights of the riverboats shine. At dawn, look where the red is wet, the flowers heavy in Chengdu.
"The second poem is titled 'Small Pond,' where the spring flows silently, its gentle stream cherished; the shade of the trees reflects on the water, loving the soft sunshine. A tiny lotus bud just shows its pointed tip, and a dragonfly has already alighted on it."
The third poem is titled "Mountain Journey": "A winding stone path leads up the cold mountain; where white clouds rise, there are houses. I stop my carriage, captivated by the maple forest at dusk; its frosted leaves are redder than February flowers."
[Guagua, i did it! Pretty awesome, right?]
[Host is amazing! You've written three poems so quickly, representing spring, summer, and autumn. Excellent!]
As Crown Prince Yan Beichen wrote, he savored Shen Mingzhu's poem. It was truly a masterpiece, and the more he wrote, the brighter his eyes became!
Su Huaiyuan, who was standing to the side, couldn't stop praising him.
"Wonderful, wonderful, absolutely amazing, absolutely amazing!"
"There are three such excellent poems! The Crown Princess is truly the most talented woman in Shengjing!"
