Gu Sheng frowned slightly, just about to speak, but saw Princess Zishuang take graceful steps forward.
"This is my esteemed guest. Who dares to obstruct him?" The princess's voice was icy cold, and her gaze sharp as lightning.
The guards' expressions changed, and they dared not say another word.
Right then and there, Princess Zishuang dismissed the guard from his position, a scene that drew the astonishment of all present.
Upon entering the poetry gathering, Gu Sheng felt as though he had stepped into a den of tigers and dragons.
Qian Duoduo, Crown Prince Yun Tingyu, Jiang Xiaotian of the Jiang family, and others all stepped forward, ridiculing and suppresing him.
"A country bumpkin—doesn't he seem completely out of place at such occasions?"
"That outfit—makes sense that the guards tried to stop him. I wonder what kind of poetry you even have to offer?"
The noblemen hastily presented their poems, attempting to showcase their talents before the princess.
