HRPM – Chapter 223 The Vixen is Enraged (1)

“Forget you — I believe that among everyone in this entire hall, not a single person will be able to answer it.” Jin Luoluo let out a cold snort.

The great hall immediately erupted with angry voices. Many people felt Jin Luoluo’s arrogance had gone far beyond reason.

They demanded that she immediately reveal the couplet so everyone could defeat her and make her admit defeat wholeheartedly.

“What used to be the same old repetitive talent competition has, thanks to Jin Luoluo’s meddling, become far more lively and entertaining. Much more interesting this way.” Xiao Luo sipped his fine wine while watching Jin Luoluo trample all over the arrogant royals, and the more he watched, the more amused he became.

These imperial relatives and nobles normally looked down on everyone, hypocritical and self-important, relying on imperial favor to disregard anyone of lower status.

They had spent their lives bullying and mocking others, yet today a suddenly-appearing Jin Luoluo had scolded them until they were utterly unable to fight back.

He felt as though he were watching a valiant female general on the battlefield, wielding a great saber and cutting down these people one by one. The sight was immensely satisfying.

Hearing Xiao Luo’s amused comment, Xiao Yu also laughed.

“It really has become much more interesting. I guarantee none of these people will ever forget this banquet. But I truly didn’t expect Luoluo to actually have some learning in her after all. I always thought this girl only had money on her mind.”

However, there was worry mixed into his words.

“But her claim that a single couplet can stump everyone here seems somewhat inappropriate. Leaving aside her arrogance, there are many people in the royal family who excel in literature. No matter how brilliant her couplet may be, it’s hard to guarantee no one will solve it. I’m worried she’s boasting far too much.”

Xiao Luo, however, had considerable confidence in Jin Luoluo.

“If she dares to boast, then naturally she has a way to back it up. Ah Yu, don’t underestimate Jin Luoluo. That little schemer has countless tricks in her head. Didn’t she just say she conquers the world with her mouth alone, able to turn black into white, twist nonsense into logic, and anger the dead back to life?”

Her earlier use of twisted logic to leave three people speechless was the perfect example.

“Even if she can’t live up to her boasting, with that sharp tongue of hers she can still use crooked reasoning to argue people into defeat. So just wait and see! I believe in her abilities — she’ll definitely give us another surprise.”

“Luoluo, since everyone is asking, hurry and tell us the couplet so everyone can hear it!” Even the Empress had become curious.
