The path of the villain is not easy

Chapter 40 The Amazing Xia Houchun
He stared with dazed eyes, seeing that Changsun Ji had finished singing.Everyone still looked bleak, as if they were savoring something.He didn't understand either, he only heard that Changsun Ji's poems were pretty good.He doesn't understand but he can pretend to understand. He also showed his face intoxicated, but he didn't feel much after being intoxicated for a long time.

So, he clapped his palms vigorously and shouted: "Okay."

Everyone shuddered violently, waking up from their memories.He restrained his emotions, and then clapped his hands in praise.

"That's right, your poem is pretty good, and it has a bit of the charm of your hymn poem, although it's not as good as mine. However, it's not bad that you have done this." Xiahou Chunyi Said in the tone of a victor.

Changsun Ji gave him a speechless look, and didn't bother to talk to him, so as not to get angry.Then, he put down the jug and looked at Emperor Yan.

Sensing Changsun Ji's eyes, Emperor Yan smiled and said: "The artistic conception is ethereal and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It is worthy of being able to compose Taoist hymns, which is enough to lead the younger generation of Yan Kingdom. Marquis of Liu'an, you have given birth to a good son. ah."

"Your Majesty, praise."

"True talent and real learning, and it's a compliment." Emperor Yan said, and then declared:

"In this competition, Changsun Ji won."

The disparity in strength between the two sides is too great.There was no suspense in the end, it was just a farce.

"Hmph, Changsun Ji. I just saw that you were injured in the mud palace, so that you can win. Don't think that you can really beat me."

I heard Xia Houchun whispering next to him.Changsun Ji has completely admired this guy to death. If he is an ordinary person, if he loses at this time, he will naturally leave the field quietly, at least gaining a reputation of being aboveboard and worthy of losing.

If you say some harsh words, it will only increase the laughing stock.But who told this guy not to care about that?It made Changsun Ji feel that this person seemed to be proud of his shame.

With Changsun Ji and Xia Houchun taking the lead in writing poems, these rich and powerful children also spread their tails like peacocks, trying their best to show themselves to attract the attention of the opposite sex at the banquet.

But until now, there has not been a poem that competes with Changsun Ji.

"If you want something, you can tell me, and I can be your listener. Be with you."

Changsun Ji turned his head to look at Princess Taiping with a twisted face. "Am I being confessed?" He growled secretly in his heart.

Changsun Ji was a little puzzled. The meeting between him and Princess Taiping was only the second time.And the relationship between each other was not very familiar with each other on the first meeting, but we just got to know each other briefly and said a few words.This time, why is she so enthusiastic about herself, it seems like a different person.

"Could it be that this paper marriage contract has such a great influence on this Princess Taiping?" Changsun Ji had some guesses.

"Then I won't be polite. I'll waste your time then, so don't think I'm long-winded." Changsun Ji said in a joking tone.

"Of course not." Princess Taiping was very happy when she heard Changsun Ji say that, a smile appeared on her face.Coupled with her classical temperament, she immediately eclipsed her surroundings.

Changsun Ji was also stunned, the charm of women always leaked out inadvertently.

Seeing Changsun Ji looking at herself with a blank face, Princess Taiping panicked, and her face turned red instantly.

"My grandson, you are indeed the leader of the younger generation. This simple poem can make me very moved." At this time, a male voice came from behind Changsun Ji.Changsun Ji heard the words and looked back, it was the seventh prince that Changsun Ji had expected before.

As Changsun Ji turned around, the seventh prince obviously saw Princess Taiping who was blocked by Changsun Ji before.Slightly jokingly said: "It turns out that sister Taiping is also here, and this king said why I didn't see you before, so I hid here and whispered. Isn't it the right time for this king to come! Didn't bother you young couple! "

"Meet the seventh prince." "Meet my brother."

Grandson Ji and Princess Taiping greeted each other one after another.Changsun Ji laughed dryly. Although the two were engaged, it was still a little embarrassing to be discovered on the spot.

"How come, I won't bother you."

"You guys talk first, I still have something to do, let's leave first." Princess Taiping was a little shy, she made an excuse at random, and left without waiting for the two of them to reply.

"Haha, this girl is still shy. This king disturbed the good things of the eldest grandson brother, the eldest grandson brother will not hold grudges against this king!"

"The seventh prince was joking." Changsun Ji was a little wary in his heart.

In just a few words, Changsun Ji felt that the seventh prince was really simple. At first, he was still the eldest grandson, but after a few casual jokes, the relationship between the two was drawn into him, and then he changed his name without leaving any traces to become the eldest grandson. Brother, you still speak in an approachable manner, which makes people feel good without knowing it.

He doesn't want to get involved in the battle for the succession yet, so he needs to be careful when chatting with someone like the Seventh Prince, lest he accidentally fall into a trap.

I don't know whether it was due to seeing Changsun Ji's wishes, or because of other reasons, the seventh prince didn't try anything, just chatted with him casually about the daily life of Yanjing City, then turned and left, as if he really just came to get to know Changsun Ji It's like knowing each other.

After the seventh prince left, Changsun Ji met the third prince again.

The third prince didn't come to contact him in person, he just sent a person to check on Inspector Sun Ji.Seeing that the grandson Ji declined, he didn't force it.Leaving very simply, obviously got a message before.

Changsun Ji wandered around the yard a few more times, and met several other noble sons who approached him to strike up a conversation.The banquet has come to an end.

After Emperor Yan left with all the princes and princesses, the palace banquet ended, and the ministers from all walks of life also left the palace one after another, and went back to their homes in carriages.

To Changsun Ji's surprise, at the end of the day, the eldest prince who had been sitting next to Emperor Yan approached him, put his arms around his shoulders very affectionately, and asked about his daily life with enthusiasm, which made him feel nauseous. cold.

Originally, he planned to take Zizhu and Ma Xiao to the poetry meeting held by Ning Fang, so that Zizhu could have a good look at his demeanor.Unexpectedly, the guy changed his mind directly, and canceled the poetry meeting because of the absence of the moon in the sky.But Changsun Ji felt that this guy probably saw that he could write poems, so he couldn't make himself look ugly, let alone continue to show off his style.

However, it is strange to say.Originally, the moon was shining brightly, but when the banquet was about to end, it was slowly covered by dark clouds, and the bright and clean demeanor before was gone.

Before the carriages of Changsun Lianyi and Changsun Ji arrived at the Marquis of Liu'an, it began to rain heavily. Raindrops the size of jujubes fell from the sky and hit their bodies, causing pain.Despite being blocked by a carriage, Changsun Ji was still wet when he arrived at the mansion because of the strong wind.
