She raised her head and listened carefully to a few lines, and seemed to be full of praise for one of the poems.
The emperor's attention was also attracted and he asked whose poem it was.
Concubine Wei Shu quickly explained with a smile: "It's my concubine's niece Jin'er."
The emperor had some impression of Wei Jin'er, but it was not because she was the daughter of Princess Yuanheng.
The Emperor is not the Queen Mother's biological child. Even if Princess Yuanheng is the Queen Mother's granddaughter, she has little relationship with him. Wei Jin'er is nothing in the eyes of the Emperor.
But Concubine Shu was Wei Shicheng's biological sister and was close to the queen. She doted on this niece and would occasionally mention it in front of the emperor.
"Read and listen."
After receiving the order, the chamberlain stepped forward, took the thin piece of paper, and recited aloud at the table: "Dreams will not come true until dawn, and thoughts will grow old. Life spans only a few hundred years, but there are all kinds of sorrows. The road of life must be difficult to end, and life and death are not over. .Don’t talk about fame and fortune. Fame and fortune are personal enemies.”
Li Qingyi frowned and raised his head when he heard the sound, and Islam exclaimed in low voice: "Girl, this..."
This is a poem by Li Qingyi.
"Miss Wei, what do you mean by this?" Silan frowned, obviously disdainful of Wei Jin'er's behavior, "It's useless to show off with a poem written by a girl!"
Li Qingyi whispered: "I'm afraid she doesn't want to show off."
Woad asked: "What is that going to do?"
Li Qingyi said nothing and looked towards Wei Jin'er.
Wei Jin'er's eyes were also looking at her, so she smiled slightly, stood up amidst the applause and said, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty, I did not mean to deceive you."
Everyone was a little surprised when they heard this, and looked at Wei Jin'er curiously, waiting for her next words.
Wei Jin'er said: "This poem was not written by my daughter. I just started to write and meditate on it, but these few sentences came back and forth in my mind. I simply wrote it for everyone to comment on. I hope the emperor will not blame my daughter."
"Oh?" The emperor heard the words and murmured: "The road of life must be difficult to end, and the work is still going on. Don't talk about fame and fortune, fame and fortune are personal enemies..."
This sentence means that it should be difficult to reach the end of the road in the world, and the means of making a living will not stop until death. Stop talking about fame and fortune. We must know that fame and fortune are our own biggest enemies.
Wei Jin'er smiled warmly and turned to look at Li Qingyi, "Sister, you won't blame me for presenting your poem in front of others without your permission, right?"
Everyone looked at Li Qingyi in shock when they heard this.
Originally, everyone thought that maybe this poem was written by Wei Shicheng or an elder. However, they never expected that it was actually made by a girl who was not even young enough to have hairpins. They all showed expressions of extreme surprise.
When Li Qingyi heard the words "You won't blame me, will you?", he felt silently disgusted.
She stood up calmly under the gaze of everyone, stepped forward and saluted, "Your Majesty, this poem was not written by my daughter, but by my father who has passed away... I am just practicing because I miss my father." I wrote this poem when I was writing, but I didn’t expect to show it to sister Jin’er…”
Wei Jin'er pursed her lips when she heard this.
She presented this poem in front of everyone because she wanted Li Qingyi to be "in the limelight", but she didn't expect that the other party would reveal her father.
However, she was not sure whether Li Qingyi lied.
She did see this poem on Li Qingyi's desk.
After listening to Li Qingyi's words, the emperor glanced at Yuan Heng, who had his eyes lowered, and said: "Such a sentiment does not seem to be written by a teenage girl like you. As for your father, I also appreciate his talent very much. , but even if you miss your father, don’t talk about these things all day long. It is not a good thing to abandon the prosperity of the world at a young age and covet silence and settlement."
Li Qingyi raised his head when he heard this.
She really didn't expect that the emperor, who was in the supreme position in the clouds, could say such meaningful words to her.
"Thank you for your teaching, Your Majesty. I will keep it in mind."
The emperor didn't say much, and asked someone to reward her with some satin jewelry, then waved her hand to sit down.
Everyone at the table couldn't help but look at Li Qingyi.
Speaking of which, the old Marquis of Xuande Palace, Li Qingyi's grandfather, once spoke for the rebellious Zhenbei Palace, and then led all the children of the Li family to withdraw from the court.
Many people thought that the emperor was angry and drove the Li family out of the capital, but only a few knew that this was not the case. Mr. Li asked to leave on his own initiative.
Afterwards, the emperor did not suppress or take care of the Li family, allowing the Li family to remain dormant in Yangzhou for more than ten years.
It is related to Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, and I don't know if there is any inside story.
Here Li Qingyi excused himself to change his clothes and leave.
But after taking a few steps, Wei Jin'er caught up with her as she expected, "Sister!"
Li Qingyi turned around and looked sad.
Wei Jin'er said: "Sister, it's my fault. I shouldn't have written that poem without your consent."
Li Qingyi took a deep breath, as if to calm down his emotions, and said: "It's nothing, it's not a big deal, it just reminds me of my father, which makes me a little sad..."
Wei Jin'er breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Just don't blame me. I'm feeling a little depressed during the dinner. Why don't we go sit in the pavilion over there and have a few words?"
Li Qingyi nodded very naturally, "Let's go."
The two of them had different thoughts and walked towards Linye Pavilion next to Taiye Pond. Unexpectedly, before they entered Linye Pavilion, a figure jumped out from the pavilion and hid behind the rockery not far away.
Wei Jin'er pulled Li Qingyi and sat down at the railing in the pavilion.
The singing and dancing started again in the distance, and they watched from a distance. Although they couldn't see clearly, it was like looking at the moon in the water, which was a different feeling.
Wei Jin'er thought about it and said, "Sister, you must already know that mother intends to ask the queen to grant you the title of county head, right?"
This matter was Wei Shicheng's intention, but in order to show Princess Yuanheng's guilt and make amends, she told the public that it was her decision.
Li Qingyi looked at her: "Sister Jin'er, I know that the position of County Lord originally belonged to you. I also explained to the Princess that I did not want the title of County Lord, but the Princess refused to change anything. idea."
"No, sister, you must not refuse."
Wei Jin'er's expression was extremely sincere, "Although my mother has not mentioned it in her mouth for more than ten years, I know how much she misses and feels guilty about you in her heart. And I have also enjoyed my mother's love and care for so many years, so what else can I be dissatisfied with?" What? Now that my sister can come to the Wei family, I am happy and happy for my mother! If my mother has a chance to make amends, she will definitely be able to untie the knot in her heart. This is also a bit of filial piety on my part as a daughter..."
Li Qingyi was very "touched" and said, "Sister Jin'er, this would be too unfair to you."
"No grievance!" Wei Jin'er shook her head: "My sister really doesn't feel any grievance. We are biological sisters. If my sister gets benefits, she will still take care of her. What difference does it make who gets the benefits?"
Li Qingyi held Wei Jin'er in his arms and said, "Having said that, I can't bear to let my sister suffer. Don't worry, I will repay the kindness you do to me a hundredfold."
Wei Jin'er's expression froze after hearing this. Why didn't it sound like such a good thing?
Before she could think of how to answer, Li Qingyi said: "We have been out for a long time, so we should go back early. After all, this is the palace, not anywhere else."
When Wei Jin'er saw her turning around, she looked back at Taiye Pond, suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Li Qingyi, and said loudly: "Sister, be careful!"
Even though Li Qingyi was on guard, his feet were tilted when he was pulled so hard by her. Wei Jin'er led him around in a circle and fell into the Taiye Pond behind him!
