Chapter 1183
The Ultimate Husband
Read The Ultimate Husband by Skykissing wolf Chapter 1183 â âHow dare you to provoke Official Stanley! You are
out of your depth!â
The Empress looked at Darryl at that moment and gently said, âDarryl, why donât you gie us a verse since you say
that Stanleyâs poetry is just mediocre?â
Her voice was gentle, yet authoritative and unquestionable!
At that moment, the Empress was curious about Darryl. This eunuch could use ants to thread the red string which
meant that he had some talents. At that moment, he said Stanleyâs poem was not great. Could he have the
capabilities to compose poems?
Gasp!
The entire courtyard was in utter silence with everyone shutting up their mouths once the Empress started
speaking.
âUhâ¦â Darryl scratched his head and said politely to the Empress, âLet me think about it.â
The World Universe indeed had many poems about snowfall. However, perhaps the Empress had read the World
Universeâs ancient poetry since the enchanted barrier between the Nine Mainlands had disappeared. Therefore,
Darryl could not use those anymore.
However, Darryl did not panic since there were many talented people within the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda
which was on him.
At that moment, Darryl pretended to frown and ponder upon his words while secretly communicating telepathically
with Pang Tong inside the pagoda.
âPang Tong, Iâm sure a poem is no challenge for you since youâre a famous strategist from the Three Kingdoms
period?â Darryl said.
Pang Tong soon replied confidently from the pagoda, âMaster, I know about poetry, but I canât come up with a
masterpiece in a short while. However, the poems I can create will certainly be catchy. Please give me some time
to think and Iâll come up with one.â
No one could hear the conversation between Darryl and Pang Tong. In their sights at that moment, Darryl seems to
be standing there in a daze and all of them thought that he could not come up with a poem.
The courtyard erupted in laughter at that moment.
âHaha! This little eunuch has been challenged.â
âHeâs just a mere little eunuch. How can he even compose poems?â
Constantly jeers came from the crowd which Darryl continued to ignore.
Darryl smiled and looked at the Empress within three minutes before slowly saying, âYour Majesty, Iâve come up
with one!â
âWhat? He has composed a poem?â
Everyone was instantly shuddered and stunned.
âT-this is too quick! How can he come up with one in such a short time?â
They then looked at each other and noticed their seriously baffled expressions. However, they soon started
regaining their composure. âAlthough this little eunuch could come up with a poem in such a short time, it doesnât
mean itâs a great one. The literary giants throughout history only came up with masterpieces after long and careful
deliberation. How good could that little eunuchâs poem be since itâ s composed in such a short time?â
The Empress said nothing but nodded-signaling Darryl to recite his poem.
Darryl cleared his throat and strode in a leisurely pace with his hands behind his back while swaying his head as
though he was reciting a great poem.
âSnow falls in all directions,
âTurning the sky and earth white.
âEven if they are all overturned,
âThey will still be covered in white.â
Darryl smiled and looked at Stanley when he finished reciting his poem. âMaster Stanley, howâs my poem when
compared to yours?â
Gasp!
At that instant, the entire palace was in utter silence such that even a pin drop sound could be clearly heard!
Everyone remained quiet as they silently savored the poem.
Stanley stood there tensed and was rendered speechless for a long time while looking at Darryl in a daze.
âE-even though t-this poem feels like doggerel, but as you slowly appreciate it, itâs actually something special!â
The Empress trembled, parted her lips slightly, and could not help but recited the poem again softly at that
moment.
âSnow falls in all directions,
âTurning the sky and earth white.
âEven if they are all overturned,
âThey will still be covered in white.â
Great poem! What a great poem!
