Chapter 414 Amusement
Empress Lin wondered why you were looking at me, and I did not come up with such a bad idea.

She immediately turned her eyes to the empress dowager.

The empress dowager sat still like a Maitreya Buddha, lowered her eyes, and said indifferently: "The competition is based on each person's ability. They can only eat, but they can't use their brains. They are pigs."

Everyone dared not say a word.

A few shy and introverted ladies had tears in their eyes.

This is what the empress dowager said, if it were someone else, I don't know what waves it would cause.

Since the most honorable and powerful woman in Dazhou has said so, Ning Xianxian's method of "stealing and cheating" naturally comes to fruition.

So in the first round of the competition, she ranked No.1 with a weight of three and a half catties.

The other eight people including Fu Jiamin, Ning Chengcheng, Liu Shuyuan, Zhang Jingshu and Miss Duan were also shortlisted.

The last three ladies were eliminated directly.

As for Ning Xier, who was disqualified from the competition because of disrespect to the empress dowager and empress, that doesn't count.Only nine were left to advance to the second round.

"The second round—" the female officer took the paper and began to read again.

There is not even time for the girls to rest.

Everyone also stood and listened helplessly, wishing they could lie down with their hands on their stomachs.

The female officer continued to read: "This second competition is compared to—"

She paused.

The girls couldn't help but get nervous.

The first round was so weird, this second round will definitely not be easy.

The female officer smiled slightly and said, "The second round is, Le."

She glanced at the people with puzzled faces, and said: "Everyone knows that our Second Prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty is the most cold-hearted person."

How did you get involved with His Royal Highness the Second Prince?

Everyone was even more puzzled.

Only Ning Xianxian looked at the Empress Dowager in surprise.

This seems to be different from the test questions she saw...

On the test questions that the Empress Dowager took out that day, she saw that the second question was indeed "Le", but the subject was not Mo Lin'an, but Mo Ran.

The empress dowager didn't look at her at all.

The female officer continued: "For the second question, within half a stick of incense, whoever can amused the cold-faced Second Prince will win. Otherwise, he will be eliminated."

Everyone was speechless.

What kind of topics are these...

As soon as the female officer finished speaking, Mo Lin'an walked in.

He was very tall and strong, his face was carved like a knife, his eyes were bottomless, and he looked very flamboyant yet evil and cold.

Although he is not as picturesque as Mo Ran, he can still be said to be very handsome.

It was the first time for some ladies to see the Second Prince, and when they saw him walking towards them, they couldn't help lowering their heads nervously and shyly, their hearts pounding.

Li Shuyuan touched Ning Chengcheng's arm, and said in a low voice: "I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Second Prince to be so handsome. I wonder what Little Prince Ran looks like?"

Ning Chengcheng stared at Mo Lin'an, absently said: "To be honest, Prince Ran is the most handsome man I have ever seen, even more beautiful than a woman."

"Really?" Liu Shuyuan was a little excited.

"En." Ning Chengcheng lowered his head, thinking silently in his heart.

In terms of status, the current Lord Ran is naturally more noble than the Second Highness, but... what about the future?

The second prince is expected to inherit the throne, but Prince Ran will only be a prince for the rest of his life.

Ning Chengcheng was thinking about it when suddenly a shadow fell over his head.

She raised her eyes and saw the handsome and tall second prince looking at her expressionlessly.

Her heart beat wildly at once.

"Okay, Ning Chengcheng can start. It's half a stick of incense time." The female official said.

Ning Chengcheng swallowed, rubbed his palms nervously, and stammered: "Your Highness, Your Highness, my name is Ning Chengcheng...I, I..."

Unprepared, Ning Chengcheng was completely stuck, his mind went blank, and he couldn't say anything.

Without warning, Mo Lin'an suddenly grinned and smiled at her.

Ning Chengcheng was completely stunned.

The usually cruel person suddenly laughed, but it was... quite touching.

At this moment, she felt that she had fallen.

Mo Lin'an's smile came and disappeared quickly, and soon he stood in front of the next lady.

The next one is Liu Shuyuan.

Seeing that Ning Chengcheng was so easy to win, Liu Shuyuan thought that the second prince liked people who stuttered and tried to learn from her, so she stumbled and said, "My little girl, my little girl's name is, Liu, Shuyuan..."

Mo Lin'an looked at her with a cold face, expressionless.

Seen by his eyes, Liu Shuyuan couldn't continue speaking, and gradually became embarrassed: "My name is Liu Shuyuan, I... don't know if the Second Highness likes to laugh or not?"

Mo Lin'an raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled slowly.

It's just that his smile was a bit of a superficial smile, coupled with his cold eyes, Liu Shuyuan was so frightened that she quickly lowered her head and dared not speak any more.

Although I don't know why, she passed the test anyway.

The next person is Fu Jiamin.

By the time she's here, there's been enough time for her to get ready.

She's not the two idiots in front who laughed at their ugliness.

She wants the empress dowager and the queen to know that she is not a fool who can only eat but can't use her brain, she is a hundred times stronger than Ning Xianxian!
Mo Linan stood in front of her.

The female official said: "Fu Jiamin begins."

Fu Jiamin calmed down for a moment, and said confidently: "Your Highness, listen to the little girl. It is said that a scholar who was about [-] years old suddenly gave birth to a son. He was born because of his age, which is called age. Not long after, he gave birth to another son, who seems to be able to read Those who named it Xuewen. The next year, another son was born, and he laughed and said: "It's a joke to have a son at such an age." Because the name is a joke. The three were old and had nothing to do, so they all ordered to go to the mountains to collect firewood. And return , the husband asked: "Which one of the three sons has more firewood?" The wife said: "I am old, but I have little knowledge, and there are a lot of jokes." "

Some officials watching outside the hall laughed softly.

There are also giggles among the ladies and ladies.Only Mo Lin'an remained expressionless, and said coldly, "You think this is funny?"

The smile on Fu Jiamin's face froze, and he said slowly: "If Your Highness doesn't like it, I'll say another one."

She racked her brains and said a few more witty words, but Mo Lin'an always maintained a cold expression, showing no intention of laughing at all.

The time for half a stick of incense passed quickly, and Fu Jiamin was eliminated.

Fu Jiamin held back her tears, went back to sit beside her aunt, and burst into tears.

The aunt hurriedly wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and said in a low voice: "You don't even know what day it is, how dare you cry?"

Fu Jiamin turned around, sobbing in a low voice: "It's not fair... why? The second prince is clearly doing favoritism and cheating!"

"Hey, this question was asked by the empress dowager herself. The two in front were easy to pass. How come you...have you offended the second prince?" the aunt asked in a low voice.

"I never offended him..." Fu Jiamin cried angrily.

"Oh, it's all fate. If you can't get it, it's fine." The aunt comforted her, "You're not the only one eliminated, let's just watch."

 Note: The joke about the scholar is taken from "Xiao Lin Guang Ji", a very interesting book.
