There was chaos on the high platform. The grandma who was standing didn't know what to do for a moment and looked blankly at the ten judges.

The ten judges stood up and discussed with each other.

Obviously, the Yaonv Pavilion suddenly became lively because of Leng Yue's incident, and the game was forced to be suspended.

"What's going on? Could it be that she is suffering from an infectious disease?" A man's voice came from the cubicle.

Then everyone started talking, especially the girls on the high platform. They all hung up their pens and hid far away.

Leng Yu was still grabbing, but luckily Aunt An and Aunt Li stopped her from grabbing her face.

However, no one caught the maid Yan'er, and her pretty face was covered with red marks.

Aunt An and Aunt Li also felt itching coming from their bodies, but it was not that severe and they could bear it.

On the third floor, Qin and Leng Yue looked at this scene happily, their eyes shining with joy, and they finally let out a bad breath.

Leng Yue's eyes shone, Leng Yu, you bitch, huh, let you use me... Haha... Yaonv? After today, you will become the object of avoidance by everyone in the capital! In this way, her ugly appearance just now can be considered.

It's a pity that you were overshadowed by Leng Yu, that bitch Murong Zhaoxue...One day, you will crawl at my feet.

Zhaoxue was on the side, looking at the scene on the high platform indifferently, and then looking towards Qin and Leng Yue.

Qin and Leng Yue both felt cold. They followed that gaze and saw Zhaoxue looking at them quietly with a vague smile on her lips. Their hearts became cold and they broke into a cold sweat.

He lowered his eyes consciously, not daring to look at Zhaoxue again.

Qin's case was even more serious. Murong Zhaoxue was fine. Could it be that she already knew that this matter was arranged by her? She was shocked. If she knew about it...then the two girls would not be able to stay...

Zhaoxue averted her eyes, a slight smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, but there was a hint of coldness in her eyes. If it weren't for Situ Chen, she would have been like Leng Yu just now!

He turned his head and whispered a few words into Nanny Jiang's ear, her eyes brightening.

Nanny Jiang nodded in agreement, glanced at Qin's mother and daughter not far away, smiled, and walked towards the entrance of the building without knowing why.

When Qin's servant saw Zhaoxue saying something in Nanny Jiang's ear, Nanny Jiang left immediately. He was startled and hurriedly whispered something to Nanny Guo.

Aunt Guo bent down and walked towards the entrance of the building. When she passed Zhaoxue and others, she didn't even dare to raise her eyes.

"Everyone be quiet, everyone be quiet." Academician Ji stood up and waved around.

The Yao Nu Pavilion gradually became quiet. Everyone looked at Leng Yue and the others, and their hearts felt knotty. They looked like they were suffering from an infectious disease.

"Girl, please go back home as soon as possible and ask for medical treatment." As soon as these words were spoken, it meant that Leng Yu was not qualified to participate in the competition.

Aunt An was shocked. Seeing Leng Yu's appearance, she had nothing to say.

"Auntie, let's help the young lady go back quickly. If this continues, I'm afraid there will be scars on the young lady's body." Aunt Li looked at the frightening blood-red stripes on Leng Yu's hands. She was very scared, but she still pulled the phone.

Hold her.

Aunt An had no choice but to drag Leng Yue under the high platform. Yan'er was better than Leng Yue. When she saw her master leaving, she hurriedly scratched her itch and followed him.

After the four people left, the girl on the high platform still did not have the courage to sit down, for fear that she would be like Leng Yu.

Academician Ji summoned the maid, and upon hearing the order, the maid immediately went to the compartment on the second floor.

"This slave is here to see the Emperor." The maid entered the compartment and immediately saluted, "Master Ji asked this slave to come..."

Before he finished speaking, Murong Yuan waved his hand, his face darkened, and turned to the four men behind him: "What do you think?"

"Your Majesty, why don't we suspend the competition today, or hold it at another place? Something like this happened during the Yao Women's Festival. I don't know how the four major families managed it." Xiao Yunchen stood up, held his hands, and looked slightly.

Looking towards Situ Chen and Nangong Liluo, the last words were naturally directed at them.

Murong Yuan's eyes darkened and he glanced at him, but ignored him and looked at Situ Chen: "Chen'er, do you have any opinion?" After marrying Zhaoxue and Situ Chen, Murong Yuan's title for Situ Chen changed from "Master Situ"

" turned into "Chen'er", which shows Murong Yuan's love for Zhao Xue.

Situ Chen glanced at Xiao Yunchen lazily, with a smile on his lips, but without getting up, he raised his eyes slightly: "Your Majesty, the competition is already halfway through, if it is suspended, there will be unnecessary trouble, and Yao Nu

The festival is a competition that Tianyue Kingdom attaches great importance to, and the people all watch it. Besides, if we want to change the venue to hold it, where can it be more suitable than this Yaonv Pavilion?"

Xiao Yunchen looked very embarrassed, but he said to Murong Yuan: "I don't believe that there is no suitable place to hold the Yao Nu Pavilion except this Yao Nu Pavilion. Besides, Mr. Situ said this, is there any way to solve the current problem?"

He looked at Situ Chen with a bit of provocation. Let's see how you answer!

Murong Yuan's face darkened a little, and his tone was stern: "I'm asking Mr. Situ, how are you meddling with him?"

Xiao Yunchen choked, his face turned red, and he became even more embarrassed. He glanced at Situ Chen jealously, but fortunately he still had some sense, and he handed over his hand: "Your Majesty."

Murong Yuan stopped looking at him, looked at Situ Chen with a calm expression, and asked again: "What can Chen'er do?"

Situ Chen smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, I don't want to be like this. I ordered the servant to wrap up tightly, remove all the tables and chairs on the high platform, and burn them. This will eliminate some of everyone's panic. Then

Let the participating girls and the boys take my Situ's antidote pills, and they will be fine." After saying that, he clapped his hands.

A maid immediately walked in outside the compartment and bowed: "What are your orders, Master?"

Situ Chen was the only one in Tianyue Kingdom who had such courage and dared to do this in front of the emperor. The maid actually did not see the emperor and only saluted Situ Chen.

Xiao Yunhan and Xiao Yunchen both changed their expressions. They did not expect that Situ Chen would be so bold and look at Murong Yuan.

Murong Yuan's expression did not change, but there seemed to be a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, which made people unable to figure it out.

Situ Chen still looked leisurely and ordered: "Go and get ten bottles of antidote pills and give them to Mr. Ji on the high platform."

"Yes, sir." The maid bowed and walked out immediately.

"Follow Master Situ's instructions and report back." Murong Yuan waved his hand towards the maid.

The maid hurriedly bowed and exited the compartment.

After a while, a boy wrapped himself up and replaced all the tables and chairs on the high platform. Another boy replaced new tables and chairs and placed them on the high platform.

The maid didn't know where to go to get ten bottles of pills from the Yao Nu Pavilion, and went up to the high platform to hand them over to Lord Ji.

At first, the girls on the high platform still didn't dare to sit down, so Grand Scholar Ji first asked someone to call the boy who had just changed the tables and chairs.

I saw something strange about the boy who moved Leng Yu's desk and chair. He couldn't stop scratching his itch, so Grand Scholar Ji poured out a pill and threw it to the boy.

Soon after the boy took the pill, he returned to normal, with nothing strange at all.

The girls then took the pills, drank them, and carefully walked to the table and chairs and sat down.

Just as the competition continued, the incense on the high platform was lit again, creating white smoke.

Silence returned to the Yao Nu Pavilion. Everyone had their guesses about what happened just now. Even smart people could guess a few things, but no one said anything.

One and a half sticks of incense last very quickly, and after that, it’s the second round.

How could Leng Yue be willing to go up on stage? Thinking that he had lost all face just now and now he was about to go up again, there was someone he liked in the room, so he refused to move even an inch.

"Yue'er, don't be willful. Even if you can't get the name of Yao Nu, it's still good to get in the top ten." Mrs. Qin looked at her with a straight face.

Leng Yue said coldly: "If you hadn't been so harsh, how could I have lost face? It's all your fault, and now you want me to go on stage and make a fool of myself, right?"

When Mrs. Qin heard what she said, she felt angry and sour. She devoted herself wholeheartedly to her children, but in the end she felt resentful.

"If you don't want to go on stage, then don't call me mother, and I won't protect you in Leng's house!" He said with a cold face, he was still his daughter after all, and he still wished her well no matter what.

Leng Yue was slightly startled. Without Qin's protection, given her current status in the eyes of her grandmother and father, she would not have an easy time in the Leng Mansion. After all, she had no choice. With a vicious look in her eyes, she was helped out of the Accord by Xiaodie.

.

On the high platform, Leng Yue's appearance caused a lot of excitement again, and laughter could be heard intermittently.

Leng Yue gritted her teeth. She had acted in all her ugly ways today. Fortunately, no one could tell who she was.

Just as I was thinking about it, a woman's voice suddenly came from the cubicle: "This woman is the third young lady of the Leng family, and the woman who just returned home is the fourth young lady of the Leng family."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the pavilion. Leng Yu and Leng Yue were quite talented in the capital, but they were still ladies. Most of the girls they knew were in the competition, so they would not talk casually, but someone in the cubicle recognized them.

It's rare to see two people.

Unexpectedly, the two daughters of the Leng family, who were always known to be talented and famous in front of everyone, turned out to be extremely ugly on the Yao Girl's Day today. Princess Zhaoxue, who was always known to have no talent and virtue in front of everyone, turned out to be very ugly on the Yao Women's Day.

The Women's Day actually stole the show, and I couldn't help but feel sad that the rumors were unbelievable. After all, there was a difference between direct descendants and concubines, and many of them were unexplainable.

Zhaoxue was leaning upstairs, smiling lightly, while Ziya was still the same, but with a touch of warmth in her heart. She knew the voice of the woman just now, it was the fifth princess Murong Ziya. In the previous life, Zhaoxue was only the fifth princess.

A true friend, the two of them are known as the arrogant princess and the unruly princess among the people.

Leng Yue was so angry that she gritted her teeth. She had no intention of painting anymore. Among the seven talents of Yao Nu Festival, she was originally the best at painting, but now her hands were shaking.

Mrs. Qin frowned and looked at Leng Yue on the high platform with a gloomy expression.

In the compartment on the second floor, Mrs. Leng and Leng Ao looked embarrassed and uncomfortable. They could faintly hear ministers and family members whispering beside them, clearly laughing at the Leng family.

Although the Yao Nu Pavilion is large, many dignitaries come to see it, so there are several ministers and their families in one compartment.

After today, the Leng family will definitely become the object of discussion among the people in the capital after dinner.

Leng Yue finished the painting amidst the laughter that gradually dissipated from the crowd. As in the painting competition and the calligraphy competition, he waited for the ink to dry and put it together and put it in front of the leader of the painting.

The third round continues, and then, the fourth round.

Zhaoxue appeared on the scene, her faint smile and generous demeanor instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Saluting, sitting down, and writing, the movements are elegant and noble, which is quite pleasing to the eye.

"Xiao Wan, there is no need to sharpen the ink." Zhaoxue raised her eyes and ordered lightly.

Doubts flashed in Xiaowan's eyes, but she didn't say much. She responded and stood aside quietly.

The other maids were all busy with their own ladies, and they were busy and nervous.

Only Zhaoxue and Xiaowan were the most leisurely, one was sitting leisurely and the other was standing quietly.

Everyone watching was surprised. Originally, the time for painting and embroidery was the most pressing in the competition, but Princess Zhaoxue was so relaxed and at ease, not using her hands, and she didn't feel the slightest bit nervous.

The incense gradually burned, time passed, and before I knew it, a quarter of an hour had passed, and there were already some comments around me.

Murong Yuan also looked at Zhao Xue with a strange expression on his face.

Therefore, all the viewers were puzzled. Only Situ Chen was leaning as leisurely as Zhao Xue, with a faint smile on his lips and a hint of interest. His eyes were slightly narrowed with a hint of expectation.

Zhaoxue just stood up at this time, with a faint smile still on her lips. She picked up the brush in her bare hand, stretched out her hand, and dipped some unsmoothed black ink on it.

He lowered his eyes, concentrated, seemed to think for a moment, and then began to draw on the rice paper.

Everyone was surprised again. Princess Zhaoxue actually painted with unground ink, which was really strange.

The eyes of the ten judges were all on Zhaoxue, and the painter looked at her quietly, seeming to be thinking about something.

The two academicians tied their beards and looked at Zhao Xue, their eyes flashing slightly and seeming to have some sparkle.

The poet Su Yejin was still sitting lazily, expressionless, slightly lowering his eyes, never leaving Zhaoxue.

Qin Kui was sitting with her weak face full of pride. How could she accept a disciple like this? She glanced at the chess leader beside her and whispered: "Mother Ye, do you regret it?"

The chess leader did not even look at her, he remained dignified, but the way he looked at Zhaoxue carefully betrayed her.

Everyone's expressions were different, but no one spoke anymore, and the Yao Nu Pavilion became quiet again.

No matter what was going on inside the Yao Nu Pavilion, the capital outside the Yao Nu Pavilion was bustling with activity.

In the major gambling houses, the bets are getting higher and higher. Except for the two bets of 200,000, the other highest bets have reached 100,000 taels. If the bets of the major gambling houses were added up, it would be difficult to calculate.

.

After just a few hours, what was originally a big upset instantly turned into a big hit.

A few days before the Yao Nu Festival, the bets placed by the common people could no longer be changed, so those who could still afford the money bet their money on Princess Zhaoxue. The one who betted the most at the moment was Zhaoxue.

The fragrance of ink is everywhere in the Yao Nu Pavilion. It is light and refreshing, making it look so elegant.

One stick of incense had been burned out, so the maid replaced another half stick of incense, lit it, and released a light mist.

On the high platform, the girls were still concentrating on painting, and several girls had almost finished the painting.

Xiao Wan looked at the rice paper in front of her quietly, the doubts in her eyes had long since dissipated, a glimmer of light appeared, and the corners of her mouth were filled with smiles.

Zhaoxue still smiled slightly, her hands didn't stop, and she kept drawing something, her posture was very leisurely. Looking at her like this, she also felt that it was a kind of beauty and appreciation.

The fragrance was gone, the writing stopped, and there was silence.

Grandma glanced at the burnt incense and said, "Girls, please stop writing, write down your maiden names, and then step down from the stage to rest for a while."

The girls stood up one after another, saluted, and slowly stepped back from the platform.

"Girls No. 41 to No. 60, please come up to the high platform." Nanny called again with a smile.

The next four rounds went very smoothly.

The final result is similar to that of a book competition, with the top ten judges deciding first.

The top ten judges were looking at each one one by one, very seriously.

Qin Kui's eyes lit up, he looked at the painting in his hand, and lightly bumped into the chess leader beside him.

The chess leader turned his eyes: "What's the matter?"

"Look, how does my apprentice's painting look?" His tone was full of pride, and his eyes were shining.

The chess leader looked at the painting in her hand, his eyes flashed slightly, showing a hint of appreciation.

Qin Kui handed the painting to her: "Let Jing Niang take a look. She must have been the painting leader for three years. No, she must have seen paintings all her life, but she has never seen such a wonderful painting."

The chess leader obeyed, took the painting, and handed it over.

The painting leader, Jing Niang, was looking at the other painting assistants seriously, but her eyes were suddenly blocked by the painting handed over by the chess leader.

Then his eyes brightened, he looked at the painting in the chess leader's hand, then reached out to take it, and began to appreciate it carefully.

The book leader who was between the two of them also put down the painting in his hand and went to look at the painting in the painter's hand.

Several judges on the other side also came over and looked at the painting.
