The most romantic little emperor

Chapter 403: Being in the limelight

After all, Su Shi's "Water Melody: When Will the Bright Moon Rise" is a masterpiece that has been passed down through the ages. Every word and sentence in it is like a bright pearl, shining brightly in the long river of Chinese culture and leaving a strong mark.

Qin Hao was secretly proud of himself, and he quietly decided to let Wang Yourong take the limelight this time.

After all, he had promised Wang Yourong that he would make her the mother of the country, and now was the perfect time for her to show her charm.

However, fate always seems to like playing jokes.

This stage, which seemed to be specially built for Wang Yourong, was quietly occupied by another woman.

Before Qin Hao could speak, Dong Meir stepped forward and slowly stood up. She looked at Qin Hao with burning eyes.

That enchanting smile was like a blooming peony, both delicate and provocative.

Qin Hao's heart moved, and he instantly understood Dong Meir's thoughts.

She was inviting herself, hoping to get a chance to express herself at this critical moment.

Facing everyone's gaze, Qin Hao finally nodded and agreed.

The Dong family is powerful and it is far from someone he can offend easily. If he ignores Dong Meir at this moment, the whole situation will become even more difficult to control.

With Qin Hao's tacit approval, Dong Meir slowly stepped into the arena. Her steps were light, yet revealed a confidence that could not be ignored.

Only then did everyone present turn their attention to Dong Meir.

Dong Sicheng didn't understand what was going on. He looked at his daughter's abnormal behavior and couldn't help but feel a little worried. He whispered, "Mei'er, stop messing around and get down quickly!"

"The man in front of you has been famous for more than 20 years. He is proficient in poetry and songs. How can you be his opponent? Don't embarrass yourself here."

Seeing this situation, Yelu Lingxiao immediately spoke out to stop it, saying: "During the literary duel, no one is allowed to cause trouble. Sir Dong, please respect yourself! Otherwise..."

Dong Sicheng was embarrassed by Yelu Lingxiao's sudden shout and laughed dryly a few times.

He glanced at Qin Hao and saw that he did not say anything to stop him. He knew that the matter could not be made any bigger, so he restrained his expression and said no more.

He looked at Dong Mei'er helplessly, and sighed inwardly: "Mei'er, Mei'er, you are so eager to be in the limelight, aren't you afraid of getting into trouble? Alas!"

From the moment Dong Meir appeared, Qin Feng's eyes were attracted by a magnet and were firmly fixed on her.

His eyes were like a flame of greed, burning with uncontrollable desire, and he was almost unable to extricate himself.

It seemed as if the only thing left in the world was Dong Meir's beautiful figure, and everything else became unimportant.

Qin Yun, who was sitting nearby, witnessed all this and couldn't help but secretly shook his head.

He gently touched Qin Feng beside him with his arm, leaned close to his ear, and whispered in his ear: "Second brother, you have to pay attention to your manners."

"You stare at the emperor's sister-in-law like this, it will easily attract other people's attention. If rumors spread everywhere and reach the ears of the eldest brother, how can he forgive you?"

Qin Feng was brought back to reality by Qin Yun's words. He woke up as if from a dream and quickly withdrew his burning gaze.

However, the desire in his heart did not subside because of this. He still took a few secret glances at her from time to time, as if he wanted to imprint Dong Meir's beautiful figure deeply in his heart.

What Qin Feng didn't expect was that his abnormal behavior had already been noticed by Qin Hao.

At this moment, Dong Mei'er slightly tilted her head and looked at Xiao Siliang. Her red lips parted slightly, and her voice was soft and delicate, as pleasant as the sound of spring water, "Deputy Envoy Xiao, are you going to come first in this competition, or should I perform first?"

Hearing this, Xiao Siliang showed a bit of politeness and humility on his face. He bowed and smiled and said, "Giving priority to women has been the tradition of your country since ancient times. Madam Dong, please show your talents first so that everyone can have a glimpse of them!"

As soon as these words were spoken, many civil and military ministers and royal relatives and nobles present cursed Xiao Siliang for being despicable and shameless. It was really shameful that he wanted to take advantage of such an advantage.

Because they all knew that in this literary battle, the one who wrote the lyrics first would undoubtedly be at a disadvantage.

After all, the latter still has enough time to think and adjust in order to create a more perfect lyrics.

Qin Feng stared at Xiao Siliang with cold eyes, and a surge of anger surged in his heart, thinking that this person's character was really low. If it weren't for the occasion, he would have rushed up and beat Xiao Siliang severely to vent his anger for his cousin Mei'er.

Dong Meir covered her mouth and laughed secretly, and said softly, "Deputy Envoy Xiao, you better be careful, don't regret it later! My lyrics are not ordinary, don't let yourself lose the courage to write lyrics, that would be really boring."

Xiao Siliang raised his head slightly, his eyes gleaming with confidence. He responded in an almost arrogant manner: "Madam Dong, you are too confident. Lyric writing is not a joke. I hope your lyrics are not too bad, so as not to make a fool of yourself."

Dong Meir shook her head gently, with a faint smile on her lips, as if she was mocking Xiao Siliang's stupidity and ignorance.

She paced slowly, lost in thought, as if she was composing a wonderful poem to respond to Xiao Siliang's provocation.

At this moment, Zhu Qiqi leaned close to Wang Yourong's ear and whispered, "Sister Rong, are you really not angry at all? It can be seen that His Majesty originally intended to let you show your talents, but he didn't expect that Dong Mei'er would cut in."

Wang Yourong smiled indifferently upon hearing this, and replied softly, "Sister Qiqi, why should you mind so much? No matter which sister comes on stage, as long as we can win in the end, that's enough."

"I just can't stand Dong Meir's pretentious and coquettish look. She has totally lost her dignity in order to show off." Zhu Qiqi frowned and muttered in dissatisfaction.

The other sisters also nodded and spoke up for Wang Yourong.

Wang Yourong just smiled slightly, revealing a calmness and composure in her smile, as if she didn't take the matter to heart. She cast her eyes on Dong Meir in the field and quietly appreciated her next performance.
