The Abandoned Wife of a Military Family: Your disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 149 This is truly bad luck.

Hearing this, Aman felt relieved.

She believed in Yunwei's abilities.

If she said she could handle it, then she really could.

“But I don’t know how.” At this moment, Xuan Yuanjing leaned closer to the two of them and whispered.

Aman: "..."

She looked at her in surprise, "Aren't you a princess?"

"Does a princess necessarily have to be skilled in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting?" Xuan Yuanjing argued vehemently. "I have been learning martial arts since I was a child. If it were a martial arts contest, none of them could beat me."

"That's impressive," Aman said, amused.

Xuanyuan Jing hugged Yunwei's arm, "Sister Yun, please write one for me later."

Yunwei glanced in the direction of the Empress Dowager and reminded her, "Perhaps it's a good thing that you can't write poetry."

"Why?" Xuan Yuanjing asked in surprise.

Aman also realized something at this moment and whispered a reminder: "Today's chrysanthemum appreciation banquet is not just a simple chrysanthemum appreciation banquet. Our emperor has reached the age of marriage. The empress dowager probably wants to use today's palace banquet to select a suitable empress and concubines for the emperor. If the princess has no interest in the emperor, it would be better not to show her face."

Xuanyuan Jing was shocked and shook her head vigorously, "I don't like your emperor."

Although the emperor of Wei was handsome, she disliked his effeminate air and always felt that he was treacherous, like a poisonous snake, ready to bite at any moment.

"Then you should just enjoy the show," Aman said in a low voice.

"Hmm." Xuan Yuanjing nodded, no longer worrying about not being able to compose a poem and losing face.

"Empress Dowager, it's really boring for everyone to sit and recite poems. Why don't we play a game of musical chairs? When the drum stops, whoever gets the flower has to compose a poem." Feng Yin suddenly suggested.

After a moment's thought, the Empress Dowager asked the Grand Empress Dowager beside her, "What does Mother think of A-Yin's suggestion?"

The Empress Dowager had no interest in playing musical chairs, but she didn't want to spoil everyone's fun, especially since this chrysanthemum appreciation banquet was organized by her. She didn't want to overstep her bounds, so she said, "You can make the decisions."

The Empress Dowager nodded. "Then I will grant your permission?"

"Hmm." The Empress Dowager nodded, but worried that Yunwei couldn't compose poetry and might be laughed at, so she stood up and said, "I've been sitting here for a long time and I'm a little tired. I'll go for a walk."

Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager hurriedly tried to have someone help her up, but the Grand Empress Dowager said, "Weiwei, accompany me for a walk."

Yunwei stood up. "Yes."

Seeing this, Xuanyuan Jing also stood up, "I'll go too."

Aman didn't want to stay at this boring banquet either, but she wasn't a princess of the Moon Kingdom and couldn't just leave, so she could only continue sitting there.

The Empress Dowager instantly understood the Grand Empress Dowager's intention. She was afraid that Yunwei, a country girl from the countryside, would lose face because she couldn't write poetry.
Despite her indignation, her smile grew even more genuine. "Mother, you mustn't go too far. Princess Rong'an and Princess Yue must also participate in the game of musical chairs later. Otherwise, it won't be fun without people."

Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager glanced at her.

Unfortunately, the other party's smile was so genuine that no one could find fault with it, as if they were truly there for the banquet.

She paused for a moment, then nodded. "We won't go far. We'll be back in a bit. You guys go ahead and have fun."

"Respectfully seeing off the Empress Dowager." The Empress Dowager nodded.

Supported by Yunwei and Xuanyuan Jing, the Empress Dowager walked towards the exit.

Feng Yin stared at Yun Wei's departing figure, a look of disdain on her face.

Is a country girl raised in the countryside worthy of being the regent?

Moreover, she was divorced.

In a little while, she would make her lose face and feel ashamed.

After leaving the banquet venue, Yunwei and Xuanyuan Jing accompanied the Empress Dowager on a slow walk.

After walking for a while, the Empress Dowager glanced at Xuanyuan Jing.

Knowing that she had something to say, but also mindful of Xuan Yuanjing, Yun Wei said, "Empress Dowager, please feel free to say whatever you wish to say. Princess Xuan Yuan is one of our own."

The simple phrase "we're all one of us" made Xuan Yuanjing overjoyed.

She said magnanimously, "There's a pond over there, I'm going to check on the fish. You two can continue chatting." With that, she ran off.

The Empress Dowager felt somewhat embarrassed upon seeing this.

This child is so sensible, even though he is from the Moon Kingdom.

She pulled herself out of her thoughts, took Yunwei's hand and said, "I originally wanted to take you back when the banquet was almost over, but the Empress Dowager insisted that you participate in that ridiculous game of musical chairs. If I refused too much, it would make it seem like you really can't write poetry and are just running away at the last minute."

"But don't worry, although I don't like those flowery things, I can still write a poem or two to get by. Come with me back to Shou Kang Palace, I'll write you two poems. Memorize them in a bit, and if you get the chance to play the game of musical chairs, having a couple of poems on hand should be enough to handle it."

Yunwei already knew that the Empress Dowager had asked her to come out because she thought Yunwei couldn't compose poetry and was worried that she would embarrass herself at the banquet.

Unexpectedly, she had thought of everything so carefully, and even wanted to write a poem for her.

Her heart warmed, and she grasped the Empress Dowager's hand tightly, saying, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. Although I don't like those fancy things either, I can still write a poem or two."

The Empress Dowager was taken aback. "Really?"

Yun Wei smiled and said, "Of course it's true."

"Good, that's wonderful, then I can rest assured." The Empress Dowager was completely relieved to receive the affirmative reply. Then, she took Yunwei and Xuanyuan Jing for a stroll around.

When they had had enough fun, the three returned to the banquet.

When the three returned, the banquet was in full swing.

The drums beat rapidly, and the women on the seats, urged on by the drumbeats, quickly passed the flowers in their hands down the stairs.

A short while later, the drumming stopped, and the flower was passed to Xuan Yuanjing.

Aman was taken aback. "Your luck... How come I've been sitting here for so long and haven't gotten a turn even once, but you got a turn as soon as you came back?"

Xuanyuan Jing glanced at the chrysanthemum stick in her hand and said with a grin, "It seems that this princess's luck is indeed quite good."

She was decisive and didn't waste any time. She picked up her glass and drank three glasses in a row.

The women had a lot to say about this.

This princess of the Moon Kingdom can't even compose poetry?

"I can't write poetry, but I can fight." Xuan Yuanjing put down her wine cup, and whether intentionally or unintentionally, picked up the chopsticks on the table and gently snapped them.

The two chopsticks broke instantly.

After that, the women fell silent.

After escorting the Empress Dowager back to her high position, Yunwei also returned to her own seat.

She gave Xuan Yuanjing a thumbs up.

Seeing this, Xuanyuan Jing became even more smug.

"Apart from you, Sister Yun, all of them combined are no match for me."

Aman's lips twitched. "Why do you always think about fighting?"

"My fists are indeed itching, but unfortunately, there's no one for me to punch," Xuan Yuanjing sighed.

Aman: "..."

The noble ladies who were nearby quietly moved the table to the side, fearing that the princess of the Moon Kingdom might go berserk and beat them.

As the drums beat, a new round of musical chairs began.

It's hard to say whether Yunwei was lucky or unlucky.

She had barely sat down when the drumming stopped abruptly as the flower was passed to her.

She was still making the motion of passing the flower to the next person.

The noblewoman who was supposed to take the flowers from her hand said with a smile, "Congratulations, Princess."

Yunwei ignored it. She looked down at the flower stick made of chrysanthemums in her hand, paused, and thought to herself that she would not believe it was not intentional.

As soon as she and Xuanyuan Jing returned and the flowers were passed to them, the drumming stopped.

What a coincidence!
That must have been done intentionally by someone.

"Your Highness is truly fortunate. The moment you arrived, the flower was passed to you. I've been hoping for it several times, but I've never had my turn. I wonder if Your Highness's poetry skills are as formidable as your martial arts? I'm really looking forward to it." At this moment, Feng Yin said with a smile, as if she was genuinely anticipating Yun Wei's poem.

Ning and Chen Yuniang wanted to take this opportunity to ridicule Yunwei, but remembering what had happened before, they wised up and didn't dare to speak, though they were secretly gloating.

Just wait, the Yun family will definitely lose face soon.

What would a village girl know about writing poetry?
Luckily?

This Miss Feng probably doesn't know that the Yun family comes from the countryside and can't write poetry at all.

For others, receiving the flower is good luck, as it provides an opportunity to showcase their talent.

But for the Yun family, this was a disaster.

Because in a little while, everyone will realize that this Yun family member is a complete incompetent fool!
