Yusui Chang'an

Chapter 490
Lin Wanrong, who was beside Zhou Yuexue, shrank her figure and hid behind Princess Yanling.

Princess Yanling looked uninterested, while Feng Siyao still looked indifferent. The two of them obviously had no idea about this matter of competing for beauty.

All the talented people in the field have already left one after another. Those who spoke well recited poems and composed poems in a rhythmic way, and those who were superb in painting skills used calligraphy smoothly and smoothly, which attracted everyone's applause and praise.

The atmosphere gradually became more intense, and all the daughters who wanted to show off their talents couldn't hold it in anymore, and ended up one after another. The empress and others commented and praised the performance with smiles.

If it were in the past, the Crown Princess would definitely accompany the Empress and comment on and praise her daughter.But at this time, she was really in no mood. Although she maintained a smile, her eyes drifted to Lin Jinyan several times unconsciously.

The look in Lin Jinyan's eyes that used to be filled with intimacy and kindness now turned into scrutiny and hostility:
This girl's family background and appearance are not inferior to mine. The queen mother and His Highness have worked so hard for her. If she becomes His Highness's concubine, I may have to give way to her in the future...

Feeling the hot gaze, Lin Jinyan seemed to turn her head unintentionally. After looking at her, Lin Jinyan smiled and raised her teacup to the Crown Princess.

The Crown Princess was stunned for only a moment, then her smile widened and she raised her glass.

Lin Jinyan's smile drifted straight into the hearts of the group of people on the opposite side who had been paying attention to her.

It also slipped into the eyes of Xiao Siming, who was shining brightly on the court and was always watching Lin Jinyan from the corner of his eye.Although the smile was not directed at him, it was enough to make Xiao Siming's heart flutter. In order to attract Lin Jinyan's attention, Xiao Siming took a few steps toward the female guest, and his voice could not help but become louder.

Zhao Huaqiong, the daughter of the Minister of War, was so angry that he almost broke his silver teeth when he saw this: "Have you never seen a woman before?"What a show off like a peacock!
After slandering Xiao Siming, Zhao Huaqiong turned his head and glared at Lin Jinyan: Fox Meizi!
Feng Siyao, who was sitting with Lin Jinyan and Princess Yanling, saw Zhao Huaqiong glaring in this direction and looked at Princess Yanling without knowing why:

"When did you offend the Minister of War's daughter again?"

Hearing this, Princess Yanling glanced at Zhao Huaqiong, frowned and said:
"What did I do to provoke her? I didn't even say a word... What do you mean? What do you mean I provoked her? What do you mean again?"

Seeing that Princess Yanling was getting angry again, Feng Siyao slowly picked up the tea cup and sipped the tea leisurely, but his eyes glanced at the lazy man opposite, staring at Princess Yanling.

Seeing that most of the male guests were already there and many of the daughters had not yet left, the queen smiled and said:

"The young talents are all showing off their talents. My daughter's family can't lose. Those who haven't played yet come up quickly and let everyone have a look."

Princess Yanling saw the queen looking towards her and waved her hands repeatedly:

"Queen, please don't look at me. Who here doesn't know what my level is? If you let me go up, aren't you asking me to make a joke?"

The queen smiled dotingly: "Okay, okay, you like to be lazy, so if you don't want to go, then you can't go. Is there any other daughter who wants to go?"

Zhou Yuexue was about to stand up, but Zhao Huaqiong stood up first and saluted:
"Queen, everyone in Tianchu knows that Master Lin is very knowledgeable and is the leader of the literati. I think the descendants of the Lin family must also be talented. Why don't we let them play and let us see their brilliance."

The queen originally wanted to call Lin Jinyan after no one was on the stage, but Zhao Huaqiong's move was really to give her a pillow because she was sleepy.
