"Lian'er, mother is asking you, mother has been sending people to look for you just now. Where have you been? The queen has said that she hopes everyone will participate in this competition, but you dare not to participate. Of course, the mother will ask you to come back and participate.
"
With what he said, Murong not only flattered the queen, but also acted like he was disciplining his own daughter. She had the aura of a wife of a left prime minister.
But Dongfang Lian knew what Murong Yi was thinking, huh, wanted to punish her by not participating in the competition?
She had already thought about it, "Oh mother, my daughter just walked around the Imperial Garden. She thought that although she was not very talented and learned, the Empress came to the palace and hoped that everyone could show their talents. My daughter thought, even if she is not as good as me.
People, after all, have to participate in an event, so I participated in an additional event, debate. Everyone knows that debate is casual, so I just talked to senior Zi Che for a few words. There was nothing outstanding, so I didn’t mention it."
"In that case, let's ask Mr. Ziche to be a witness."
The queen spoke again and looked at Zichemeng who was sitting there in a precarious position.
This old man is nearly eighty years old, but his mental outlook is still very good. He has a red face, white hair, and a long beard, and he has the air of a great Confucian respecting his master.
Che Meng twisted his long beard and glanced at Dongfang Lian, "This girl just wanted to argue with me."
The topic he asked was - Why is the world important?
Many noble ladies admired his reputation and came to him to argue, but they were defeated after saying less than three sentences.
Only Dongfang Lian spoke about a dozen sentences. Just when he was listening with some interest, this girl suddenly said, "Oops, I don't know what to say. Old gentleman, you win..."
Then, he turned around and ran away.
It made him very angry.
This girl, are you kidding him?
"Queen, I would like to continue the unfinished debate with my love girl."
Zi Che Meng suddenly said.
Dongfang Lian was a little surprised. Didn't this Che Meng look like he was relying on his elders and showing indifference to the ladies who came to debate? Why, he still wants to argue with her now?
…
What Che Meng said surprised not only Dongfang Lian himself, but also everyone else present.
Why would a mere girl allow Zichen Meng to argue with her again by naming her by name?
Could it be that this Dongfang Lian was appreciated by Zichemeng at such a young age?
You know, Zi Che Meng was very knowledgeable, arrogant and very arrogant. Many people wanted to ask him for advice, but he was too lazy to talk nonsense to those people.
The reason why he came to participate in the Hundred Flowers Festival held by the Huang Kingdom this time and preside over a debate was not because of the queen's reputation, but because the great master in the court - Liu Qiwei - came forward to invite her.
Liu Qiwei and Zi Chemeng were brothers in the same school, and Liu Qiwei was the teacher of the current emperor, known as the Grand Master.
The Liu family is also the fourth largest family in the Huang Kingdom. His daughter Liu Ju is the current Concubine An, and she has the fourth prince Long Qilin and the seventh prince Long Qijin.
…
Hearing Zichemeng's words, the queen suddenly became interested and glanced at Dongfang Lian.
I saw that this girl was very young. She was wearing a suit of brocade and a light-colored gauze cover, revealing her graceful neck and clearly visible collarbones. The pleats of her skirt flowed to the ground, making her look very charming.
