Chapter 280 There is no suspense in winning
"Three ladies, who would like to show it first?"

When the bachelor asked, the contestant from Beiyue Kingdom said confidently, "I'll go first."

Two court ladies stepped forward, held up her painting, and showed it to the regent, Prince Beiyue and Prince Xiao first before showing it to everyone.

"Sure enough, the painting is pretty good, and it's pretty similar. Although this level of painting skills can't be compared with men's colleges, it should be considered excellent among women."

"Yes, the clothes and figure are more similar, but the facial features are not too similar, but anyone who looks at it will know that the painting is this maid."

"The charm of the five sense organs is the most difficult to draw, even if the artist comes to paint, they may not be able to grasp it accurately."

"In any case, this number one should be stable. Even if this painting is admitted to the men's college, it should be at the upper-middle level."

Hearing everyone's conversations and praises, the young lady of Beiyue Kingdom couldn't help showing a proud look.Before Prince Beiyue placed a bet on Mo Li of the Eastern Tang Kingdom, she had always been unwilling to do so. At this moment, she was painting with all her strength, showing her highest level ever.

She didn't believe that there was anyone in the women's college who could draw better than her?
The two maids put her painting back, and the scholar of the Hanlin Academy asked again: "Miss, who will show it next?"

After seeing the paintings of Beiyue's students, the students of Nancang Kingdom were a little discouraged, and said in a low mood: "I." She is good at dancing, and her painting is at an upper-middle level in the women's college, but she was selected to paint.

Now she only hopes that Mo Li from Eastern Tang Kingdom will lose to her.

The two palace maids lifted her painting and showed it around, and it was really ordinary.

"Compared with the painting just now, this one is too inferior. Whether it's lines, colors, shapes, or charms, they are very ordinary."

Several people laughed excitedly: "Stable, one pays two. I bet 100 taels just now, and now I have a net profit of 100 taels. I regret not bringing more money here."

The scholar of the Hanlin Academy said loudly: "Now we will show the paintings of Ms. Mo of the Eastern Tang Dynasty."

Feng Jiawen had already prepared his words to make fun of Mo Li, and Chu Qian had even prepared an expression of contempt, waiting for the two maids to show it.

The two court ladies still took the painting and presented it to the prince and prince first.The regent looked calm, while Prince Beiyue still had a faint smile, as if he thought Mo Li's paintings should be like this.

However, Prince Xiao's expression was completely different from the two of them. After seeing the painting, he was pleasantly surprised and said to Mo Li: "As expected, Miss Mo did not disappoint this king. The painting is so lifelike, it is amazing!"

His words shocked everyone, Mo Li painted so lifelike?How can it be?

Mo Li is good at piano, dancing, arithmetic, and calligraphy, but she is mediocre in painting skills. This is the result they have inquired about a long time ago.Besides, no one is perfect, how could Ms. Mo be excellent in everything?

Everyone had their own thoughts, watching the two maids show the paintings in their hands to them.

The moment they saw the painting, everyone couldn't help gasping or admiring, and looked at Mo Li in shock.

"It's really lifelike, just like looking in a mirror. No, the bronze mirror doesn't even illuminate it so clearly."

"This is too similar, as if it will come alive in the next moment."

"Look at the facial features, they are so exquisite. What kind of painting technique is this? It seems to be different from our traditional painting technique. The painting is too real!"

"Mo Li is really a treasure, such a beauty with both talents and looks, I don't know which house she will marry in the future."

"Mo Shilang really got a big deal. After all these years, how could he have cared about this daughter? No one taught her, no one raised her, and she turned out to be so outstanding."

"I think a few months ago, we laughed at Mo Li as a country bumpkin who didn't know anything, but now his face really hurts from being beaten. In the capital, we can't find a woman who is better than Mo Li!"

"To Mo Li, I am really convinced!"

Feng Jiayin stared at the lifelike painting, her eyes almost popped out.If so many people hadn't looked at Mo Li's painting, she would have suspected Mo Li of cheating.

Mo Li could draw so well, why did she behave mediocrely in school, playing tricks on them?

Listening to everyone's exclamation and praise, Feng Jiayin was as angry as she wanted. "Why are you happy? Mo Li won, which means your money is gone!"

Her words were like a basin of ice water poured over their heads, waking up everyone immersed in the painting.

Yes, there is no suspense for Mo Li to win this game, but they bet on Beiyue students...

If you just bet with a few lords, with the odds of [-] to [-], wouldn't you have made a lot of money now?Where would it be like now, all the money invested in was wasted, heartache, heartache, uncomfortable everywhere!

Xiao Yuxuan ran into the arena in surprise, and regardless of her ladylike image, she immediately hugged Mo Li and said excitedly: "Mo Li, I already knew that you are Mo Li, how could Mo Li lose?"

Mo Li smiled and patted her on the back lightly: "It's a fluke, it's just a fluke."

Xiao Yuxuan let go of her, with tears of excitement in her eyes: "You are just too humble."

She raised her chin and looked in the direction of Chu Qian and Feng Jiawen: "Sorry, I made you worry about my gold hairpin and jade pendant for nothing."

The banker who proposed to place a bet looked ashamed and defeated. He thought he could make a lot of money, but he didn't expect to lose it all.For the bet made by the crown prince and the two princes alone, he had to pay 3 taels of silver, plus the 1 taels to be paid to Mo Li, and Miss Xiao... He wanted to die.

For a moment, almost everyone in the courtyard was depressed.As a native of Dongtang, I don't have any pride in my heart that Dongtang students have won. There is only pain, pain, pain all over my face and heart!

*
The news of Mo Li's victory in the morning competition quickly spread to every corner of the capital.

After all, only a small group of people who were watching the game were betting. They were heartbroken, but the people in the capital were all cheering.As East Tang people, this is their pride.

When Mo Li returned to Mo Mansion, Mo Changhai had already heard the news and was waiting in the main hall with Mrs. Mo and Lu Xinlian.

"Father, are you looking for me?"

Mo Changhai had a kind smile on his face: "Mo Li, sit down!"

Thank you Mo Li and sit down.

Mo Changhai said kindly: "Mo Li, you must be very tired after drawing for an hour in the morning?"

Mo Li replied lightly: "Well, I'm a little tired, so I want to go back to my room early to rest."

"Housekeeper, bring me the mung bean soup that the old man specially ordered the kitchen to cook, to cool off the eldest lady!"

Mrs. Mo also rarely showed a smile to her: "Mo Li, look at our Mo residence, since you came to the capital, your father has been demoted to be a servant, and he has also been stripped of his salary for five months.

A while ago, Yunmei got married and accompanied her with a lot of dowry, but now it is really difficult for the mansion.

I was supposed to boil a bowl of bird's nest for you to nourish your body, but I can only wrong you to drink mung bean soup. "
