The eyes from all directions were shot towards Lin Qingxue, some were ridiculed and some were joked.

The Empress Dowager frowned unhappily. This Lin family was really rash. She ran out without knowing the situation in her Yanfu Palace, and now she has broken things. At this time, it is not auspicious to break things.

Xuanyuan Yu frowned and looked at Lin Qingxue and looked at the woman sitting next to Song Heng. If the person standing here was Lin, who was she? Could it be Song Heng's first wife?

Xuanyuan Yu couldn't believe it. After all, he had seen Song Heng's first wife before. She was dark and thin, with no color, and had no timid temperament.

If it was Lin's standing, she would undoubtedly be Shen's.

Song Heng frowned, stood up and pulled Lin Qingxue to the hall, knelt on the ground and apologized: "I misunderstood the insult to the inner palace, and I would like to forgive the emperor and the empress dowager."

Xuanyuan Yu glanced at Chen Wan again, raised his hand and said, "No problem, get up!"

Song Heng sat with Shen and held hands with her. Obviously he liked his first wife more, which shows that he was also a person who values ​​feelings. He was too concerned about feelings, otherwise he would not have had a fuss and wanted to give him a marriage.

The palace servant quickly went to the seat where Lin Qingxue sat and cleaned up the broken teapot and water stains.

Song Heng and Lin Qingxue got up, Xuanyuan Yu looked at Lin Qingxue with his head down and said, "Lin, you are a great charity for giving porridge to help the victims, and it is even more of a great achievement. I am so sorry for General Song today and I will give you a third-rank lady."

This is why Lin Qingxue was able to go to the palace for a night banquet today. Xuanyuan Yu went to the palace a few years ago. After hearing about Lin Qingxue's porridge, he became interested in signing her for imperial edict. Then Shen was granted the imperial edict when he did good deeds, so naturally she could not be missing.

However, it is naturally more respectful to enthrone the Lin family on such occasions than Shen family.

Lin Qingxue was very surprised and hurriedly knelt on the ground to thank her.

"My wife thanked the Lord for her kindness, long live the Five Emperors." Haha, it seems that she is really not wrong in giving her this porridge, and the money is worth spending. Not only did she save her reputation, she also got an imperial decree that could get a salary. In the future, she will be the same imperial decree as that country woman. It depends on who dares to look down on her.

Many wives shook their heads secretly, feeling that the Lin family had a big problem and they were not worthy of being named the Lady of the Imperial Palace. Moreover, the purpose of her porridge was not to do good deeds sincerely, but to whitewash herself.

Obviously, the emperor did not know these, otherwise he would not have granted the Lin family imperial edict. However, the emperor's golden mouth has already opened, so who dares to say what now?

They also felt wronged for Shen. Lin framed her brother and framed her, but now she has been granted the imperial edict. How frustrated she feels!

"Let's flat!" Xuanyuan Yu raised his hand to Lin.

Lin stood up and retreated to her position with Song Heng. When she walked by Chen Wan, Lin Qingxue looked at her proudly.

Chen Wan drank the tea without caring and glanced at the person above the high position with the end of her eyes.

He can even be granted an imperial edict for a person like Lin Qingxue, but he is really a "wise king"!

Xuanyuan Yu didn't know that Chen Wan silently "liked him" in her heart.

He looked at everyone and said, "This Lantern Festival is about watching lanterns and guessing riddles. Today I have published some riddles. Everyone will guess. In the end, the winner can make a request to me."

When Chen Wan heard this, her eyes lit up. She could make a request to the emperor! This lottery ticket is really tempting! She turned her head and looked at Song Heng.

Not only Chen Wan, but many people were excited, even the general was excited.

The palace servants carried the lanterns with more than twenty lanterns to the middle of the hall. They also sent a set of pens, ink, paper and ink to each person's table.

The father-in-law responsible for chanting the riddles said loudly: "After I read the puzzle, the ministers and wives can write the answer to the riddle on paper. After I counted twenty numbers, I will reveal the answer to the riddle. Those who answered correctly will continue to guess. Those who answered wrong will be eliminated directly. The top three will be rewarded. The first place can make a request to the emperor and get a pair of warm jade bracelets, the second place can get a pair of early spring pictures by Saint Wu, and the third place can get a Tianyin Qin."

These lottery tickets are rare and extremely valuable treasures.

After the father-in-law finished speaking, he pulled off a small banner under the head of a lantern on the far left of the second row.

"Fly on the grass, sing a word."

“One, two…”

Chen Wan raised her eyebrows, and without thinking, she picked up her pen and wrote the word "early" on rice paper. Song Heng didn't write it because there was a person at the table who answered the question, and Chen Wan answered the question, so he stopped participating.

The first puzzle is very simple, so many people answered it correctly, and only a few generals were eliminated without answering it correctly.

Xuanyuan Yu glanced at Chen Wan, who was holding up the rice paper in her hand. Unexpectedly, she, a rural woman, could even guess riddles.

If everyone knew what he was thinking, they would definitely say: "Your Majesty, there are so many things you didn't expect!" This Shen family is a recognized talented woman! In the literary circle, who wouldn't read her and write poetry!

Lin Qingxue was also guessing riddles, but she was eliminated when she guessed the fifth riddle.

The more you go, the harder it is. When you guess the riddle of the tenth lantern, half of the people were eliminated. The generals were basically wiped out. Among the royal relatives, Princess Liufang, Prince Yun, and Murong Li were left. Then the others, except Chen Wan, were all civil servants.

Chen Wan and Princess Liufang are also the only women who have guessed it now.

Concubine Shu looked at Chen Wan and smiled at the emperor and the queen mother, "This Mrs. Song is so powerful, she has persisted until now."

The queen mother smiled and nodded, "She is naturally amazing. She is now a talented woman in the imperial city!"

"Talented woman?" Xuanyuan Yu frowned. Isn't Shen a talentless woman? How did he become a talented woman?

"Don't the emperor know?" said the empress dowager: "The poems she made are widely circulated in literati. Even Mr. Yun said that her poems are well done!" These are all things she heard from Fang'er. Because Shen is Fang'er's life-saving benefactor, Fang'er always praises her in front of her.

Xuanyuan Yu looked at Chen Wan who wrote the correct answer again and was confused. He really didn't know about this!

In less than a year, how could Shen, who was not talented and virtuous, become a talented woman? Even his teacher agreed with her.

He suddenly felt that he didn't know Chen Wan at all.

The lantern riddle came to the fifteenth lantern, and there were less than ten left. Except for the seven knowledgeable civil officials, the only ones left were Chen Wan, Princess Liufang and Murong Li.

"The heart is neither left nor right, neither up nor down, typing a word."

After my father-in-law finished reading, Chen Wan took the brush and thought about it, and wrote the word "Loyalty" on the paper.

There is no doubt that she answered correctly again this time.

Princess Liufang thought about it and stopped here. Another civil servant was also eliminated.
Chapter completed!
