Chapter 123: Elder Princess 43
Facing Princess Elizabeth’s terrifying "death sentence" question, Mr. Fisher seemed as though he had already experienced it countless times, his expression calm. Smiling, he said to Lady Lao Fang beside him,
"The works of both ladies are truly too excellent, and with my humble literary judgment, I fear it’s very difficult to make a fair assessment. Lady Lao Fang, as an expert in this field, I’d like to ask for your opinion."
Lady Lao Fang’s glasses even skewed a bit from the shock, obviously not expecting Mr. Fisher to suddenly divert the fire to her.
Utterly speechless, she internally downgraded her opinion of Mr. Fisher by a notch.
Following her hesitation, and certainly not forgetting the mission she came for, she adjusted her glasses and, after a moment of careful thought, said to Mr. Fisher,
"Ah, Princess Elizabeth’s work is intricately structured, her word choice precise, and her imagery is very intriguing. While Lady Renie’s buried meanings are quite profound, her use of literary words is rather simple, so, personally, I believe Princess Elizabeth’s work is more superb."
"The elder Princess’s work is indeed very remarkable."
Lady Lao Fang’s evaluation resonated with Princess Isabella, and under the praise of the two ladies, Princess Elizabeth wore a faint smile.
