Chapter 26
"The talents of all ladies are exquisite, so I won't make a fool of myself." Gu Yunxi politely declined.

At this time, she was facing Shen Zhi's scorching gaze, with a glow on her back, and she really didn't want to show any talent.

"Who doesn't know that the young lady of the Shangshu Mansion possesses both ability and integrity, why should Second Miss Lin be so modest?" Li Yiyi deliberately flattered her.

"Yes, could it be that Miss Lin looked down on us and didn't bother to show it?" Sun Shuyi asked loudly, trying to force Gu Yunxi to take the stage with words.

The more Gu Yunxi refused, the more guilty she seemed, and the booing became more vigorous.

This is to see that Gu Yunxi has been staying in the temple for seven years. In terms of talent, she must be inferior to the ladies in the capital.

He wanted to make her look ugly in public, to make her laugh out loud.

Especially after Yao Yurou's amazing dance just now, even if Gu Yunxi's performance is acceptable, compared with Yao Yurou, it will only make people feel dull.

"Performance is voluntary, so why force others to do it?" Xue Shi'an countered displeased.

"Miss Xue, don't be impatient. The younger sisters are also kind. The second younger sister Lin has been away from the capital for seven years, and she doesn't know many sisters well. Just take this opportunity to get to know each other better and bring the friendship between the sisters closer. "

Yao Yurou paused for a moment and then said: "Besides, talent is just for the entertainment of everyone, how can there be such a thing as showing your ugly face?"

Yao Yurou's empathetic words seemed to save Gu Yunxi from the siege, but in fact they blocked her way out.

If Gu Yunxi shyly refuses at this time, she will appear timid and petty, and she is afraid that she will be laughed at by everyone present.

"Miss Yao is right. Second Miss Lin should not miss out on such a good opportunity." Seeing Yao Yurou speak, Wu Yu hurriedly chimed in.

"Xi'er, since you gentlemen and misses are kind, don't delay any longer." Mrs. Lin said without changing her expression.

"Since grandma said so, Xi'er will borrow the calligraphy that Eldest Sister just had."

Gu Yunxi walked slowly to Lin Yiyao's painting, picked up the brush dipped in black ink, and swiped it wantonly, which looked like a scribble.

"What is she doing? Could it be that she is jealous of Yiyao's painting and wants to destroy it?" Li Yiyi asked puzzled.

"Look at her posture, where it looks like a painting, she can't even pretend."

"I think it's just right. With Zhu Yu in front, her three-legged kung fu can just show off Yiyao's superb skills, and make her even more vulgar." Sun Shuyi whispered, with a smile on her face.

"Don't put it that way. Second Miss Lin has been away from Beijing for seven years, so she is naturally inferior. It's all a competition between sisters. There is no winner or loser."

Yao Yu spoke softly, with some disapproval in her tone, but the smile on her face couldn't be suppressed.

During this concubine selection banquet, Yao Yurou never took Lin Yiyao seriously.

After all, in terms of talent and beauty, Lin Yiyao couldn't compare to herself.

Only Gu Yunxi, with a face similar to Princess Chaoyun's, was too lethal to the regent, so she had to guard against it.That's why she encouraged Lin Yiyao to deal with Gu Yunxi at today's banquet.

But now it seems that she is too worried, such a vulgar woman, Mrs. Liu will definitely not allow her to enter the door.

It just so happens that I can take this opportunity to teach Gu Yunxi a lesson, so that she can realize how unbearable she is!
Lin Yiyao sat aside, without saying a word, looking at Yao Yurou's smug smile, thinking of how she was teasing her, wishing she could go up and scratch her face right now!

At this time, the person she hated the most was Yao Yurou, even Gu Yunxi was behind her.

After all, she has always been at odds with Gu Yunxi, and the enmity between the two is almost on the surface.

But Yao Yurou is different, she has always regarded Yao Yurou as her good sister, and now being stabbed in the back by her best sister is not good, how can she not hate it!
On the other side, Sun Youcai was drinking with Wu Yu who was sitting next to him. He looked at Gu Yunxi with sympathy in his eyes, and shook his head slightly. He already expected that Gu Yunxi would make a fool of himself.

After all, she had been in the temple for seven years, and she didn't have nuns around her, so how could she compare with the well-trained ladies in Beijing.

In fact, not only Sun Youcai thought this way, almost everyone present thought so.

So even though Gu Yunxi was still painting, everyone at the banquet didn't care at all, they were all pushing glasses and changing glasses, chatting and laughing happily, as if the ending had already been decided.

Only Jin Jin, who looked at Gu Yunxi who was scribbling pen and ink with interest, knew about Shen:
"What do you think she's doing? I always think she won't give up so easily."

Shen Zhi also looked in Gu Yunxi's direction, his eyes were dim, he didn't know what he was thinking, and poured the wine in his hand into his mouth one by one.

Jin Jin saw him looking like drinking to relieve his worries, took the wine glass from his hand and said, "Do you want to make a bet?"

"No." Shen Zhiyan succinctly refused.

"Why?" Jin Jin asked a little disappointed.

"boring."

"." Jin Jin said in silence for a while, "Tell me what things you don't think are boring? I don't think there is anything in this world that you find interesting."

"How could it be! Impossible!" Li Yiyi's exclamation attracted the attention of everyone in the water pavilion.

They all followed her gaze and looked towards Gu Yunxi.

I saw that Gu Yunxi had finished the painting at some point, and the maid on the side was carefully hanging up the painting and showing it to everyone.

The conversation during the banquet came to an abrupt end, and everyone stared at the painting intently, gasping one after another.

"Is this drawn by Second Miss Lin?" Wu Yu asked with disbelief, his expression sour.

"Naturally." Xue Shi'an looked at the faces of everyone, and replied happily in his heart.

"It's just an ink painting, what's there to be proud of?"

Sun Shuyi looked at Gu Yunxi's painting and said disapprovingly.

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Sun Shuyi with disdain.

But she didn't realize it.

Continued: "Ink and ink splashing, without any rules, is simply a mess! Such clumsy painting skills, if you dare to make a fool of yourself, aren't you afraid of staining everyone's eyes?"

Sun Shuyi thought that she had caught Gu Yunxi's chance to make a fool of herself, so she naturally spared no effort to humiliate her.

"Miss Sun knows painting?" Jin Jin asked with a light smile.

Sun Shuyi naturally didn't understand, but when people questioned her in public, she blushed, "I don't understand? Do you understand?"

"A little understanding, a little understanding, the artistic conception of Miss Lin's painting is very good, which is rare." Jin Jin praised.

"Since you understand a little, shut up quickly. You smell of copper all over your body, but you are pretending to be elegant, and you don't know how to pretend to understand the artistic conception!"

When Sun Shuyi said so, Jin Jin didn't intend to continue arguing with her, so he spread his hands and continued drinking.

Seeing that Jin Jin didn't speak, Sun Shuyi thought he was guilty: "How dare you say yes to such a graffiti painting, it's really ridiculous."

"This painting is really not bad." A man in a white robe and brocade robe said in a voice during the banquet.

His eyes stared straight at the painting in the center of the water pavilion, his eyes were obsessed and he lingered.
