"I have discernment," Mu Siyu said. "Others only see that the rockery is beautiful, but they don't know that it is made of different exotic stones."

"If that's the case, it must be very precious." Mrs. Xing poked Xing Jiashi's forehead and looked back at Mu Siyu, "Don't listen to her, she just likes to join in the fun as a child."

"It doesn't matter." Mu Siyu said, "I see that Fifth Miss is very attached to it. Whichever stone she likes, just take it."

"Thank you, Mrs. Lu." Xing Jiashi thanked him happily.

Mrs. Xing wanted to refuse, but she didn't expect that Xing Jiashi agreed readily and glared at her angrily.

The women's side finally calmed down, but the male guests started to make a fuss again.

I don’t know who proposed the poem competition on the spot. What they meant was that they wanted Jieyuan to show off his talents.

"Madam, the young master is having a poetry contest over there, with lotus as the theme. Whoever writes better will win. The Duke of Zhen Guo also gave him his unicorn ring."

When the female relatives heard that it was so interesting, they couldn't help but suggested that they go and see what the male guests were doing.

Today is a banquet hosted by the Lu family. Even if you want to join in the fun, Mu Siyu, Mrs. Lu, has to nod and agree.

"It's good to be young and full of energy, so we can't let them down." Mu Siyu looked at the ladies, "Anyway, with adults like us here, there is nothing inappropriate."

A group of people went to the garden where the men were gathering.

Many tables and chairs have been set up in the garden. The servants have prepared pens, ink, paper and inkstones. A dozen young men are writing furiously in the garden.

Lu Shaoyu was particularly eye-catching.

Not to mention that he was the youngest, but because of his identical appearance to Lu Yi, he easily became the center of attention.

Lu Zhiyun saw Xie Chengjin next to Lu Shaoyu.

She felt curious that the man was writing so seriously and she didn't know what he could write.

Mrs. Wu Anhou covered her lips with a round fan and said to Wu Anhou next to her: "What happened to your son today? He is usually the most bored with this kind of frivolous tricks, but today he actually got ahead of himself."

"How can a young man not be bloody? Maybe he is not willing to lose to others?" Marquis Wu An said, "Besides, there are so many little girls here today, is it possible that none of them are worthy of his performance?"

Mrs. Wu Anhou said thoughtfully: "I heard that a male peacock will open his tail when he sees a female peacock he likes. It turns out that it's time for him to open his tail."

"It's time for a stick of incense." Zhen Guogong shouted, "Now let us appreciate your calligraphy."

There are many literati and poets here today, especially the ministers. The number one scholar and the second best scholar in several circles are here.

Among them, the one who has the most say is the Crown Prince, Master Xing.

"Lu Jieyuan wrote 10 poems, each one is a good poem, and his words are like an eagle flying into the sky. Good poems and good words deserve the first place. Xie Shizi wrote nine poems, only one is missing. Both the poems and the words are top-notch.

Mr.

."

"It should be so." The adult next to him nodded, "Master Mo's son wrote five poems, which are also good poems and good calligraphy. After seeing a few of them, we old guys have to obey our old age! From now on, it's time for you young people to show off their talents.

"

"Thank you, sir. Talking lightly is not enough. We need to learn more from Brother Lu Xian and Prince Xie." Mo Qingyan said.

While Mo Qingyan was talking, he kept looking for Lu Zhiyun in the crowd.

"Hey, this is... a masterpiece by Jiang Wanchen, the son of the Minister of War." Mr.

The poem mentions lotus flowers a total of fifteen times, and the artistic conception is beautiful. From his words, I seem to see the lotus flowers turning into fairies dancing in the pond."

Jiang Wanchen saluted: "Thank you, sir."

"Master Jiang only has a precious son like you. I didn't expect that you are not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also talented in literature."

In the crowd, the ladies looked at the named people with admiration.

All of these men are excellent. If you marry any one of them, they will be carefree for the rest of their lives.

King Zhong yawned and said to King Xuan next to him: "It's rare to have a banquet for eating, drinking and having fun today. Why are they still fighting about poetry? It's really boring."

Fan Yan's eyes fell on Lu Zhiyun.

She has grown taller and looks better. If this little girl continues to grow taller, I don’t know how powerful she will become.

"Don't look at it. It's not yours anymore." Prince Zhong said lazily, "Besides, I have adopted her as my adopted daughter. You can call her my eldest niece in the future."

"What?" Fan Yan looked at Prince Zhong, "Are you kidding?"

"Do I look like someone who is joking? Or do I know you well enough to joke casually?" Fan Yuanxi, the loyal king, smiled lightly and said, "I am the same age as her father. Is there any problem with accepting her as my adopted daughter?"

"There are so many people your age in the world, why don't you accept their daughter as your adopted daughter?" Fan Yan said, "Stop joking."

"You are really plotting against her." Prince Zhong came over, "You have a princess, do you think you want that little girl from the Lu family to be your concubine? Don't talk about concubines, even if they are equal wives, believe it or not, your brain will be broken tomorrow morning

Isn’t it on the neck?”

"I have never thought about it this way." Fan Yan said, "That princess is not the one I want to marry. One day I will divorce her."

The loyal king chuckled twice.

Peace and separation?

Then what?

What a naive little guy.

Qi Xiao stood up and said to Lu Yi next to him: "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

"Why are you so anxious that you don't even want to eat?" Lu Yi said, "Isn't it because you are afraid of eating our Lu family's food?"

"How could it be?" Qi Xiao said, "Our Dark Law Department has many cases to handle, so we can't afford to delay."

"Okay, then I won't keep you." Lu Yi said.

Qi Xiao nodded to him and left with his men.

Mu Siyu happened to be walking from the opposite side.

When she passed by Qi Xiao, she smelled a familiar smell in her nose.

That was the scent of incense in her carriage.

"I didn't expect..." Mu Siyu said, "Sir, a serious person like Mr. Qi also likes to use women's incense."

Lu Yi came over and asked, "Why are you here?"

"Nuo..." Mu Siyu pointed at those nymphomaniac ladies, "I heard that your place is busy and they are clamoring to come over."

Lu Yi didn't look at those ladies, but instead saw his precious daughter trapped by several children from aristocratic families. He was about to come forward, but saw Xie Chengjin stop over there, and several children from aristocratic families walked away in dejection.
