Chapter 71: One plan fails, another one comes

  Looking at Yun Sui's slightly stiff smile, Yun Jing Chu couldn't help but sneer in her heart.

  Bai Ruo Xi watched this farce, her heart filled with endless sorrow: one Yun Cui Ping left, and another Jian Ning arrived. When could his love be openly and freely placed in the sunlight?

  Never mind, let everyone think so, maybe it's better to suggest that Auntie marry Jian Ning off as soon as possible.

  Attention was drawn, Bai Ruoxue returned to the host seat, raised a cup of wine and said loudly: "Today I invited everyone here, there is nothing special, just the lotus flower is about to fall, want to invite everyone to come together to appreciate the lotus. Come on, let's have a drink together."

  The banquet began, and the maidservants brought food and wine like flowing water. The sound of silk and bamboo instruments rose, and the dancing girls twisted their seductive figures, starting to dance with the music.

  Yun Jingchu was happily eating the delicious food in front of her while watching the singing and dancing, with a carefree expression.

  Bai Ruolan observed Yun Jingchu from the side, constantly analyzing in her heart why her brother would like Yun Jingchu. In the end, she concluded that her brother was too smart, and the girls around him were either arrogant or had ulterior motives, so he would naturally like a simple and well-behaved girl like Yun Jingchu. Hmm...she also thought that simple and well-behaved girls were more likable.

  Looking back at Yun Xiaoyu, she was a bit distracted. In her heart, she was constantly thinking about what to do if she offended Princess Jianning. Although she was clever, when faced with someone as unreasonable as Princess Jianning, she was also at a loss.

  Soon, the singing and dancing came to an end. Bai Ruoxue stood up again with a wine cup in her hand, "Ladies and gentlemen, such a beautiful scenery, I propose that everyone compose poems to add to the excitement."

  "Good!" The crowd responded.

  Everyone present is a young master or lady from a noble family, full of talent. They are all very eager to have the opportunity to show off their talents in public. Accidentally composing a famous poem will bring great benefits in the future, whether in official career or marriage.

  "So I'll go first then..." Bai Ruoxue said, reciting a poem about lotus flowers, which naturally brought applause and cheers.

  Of course, this is half because of Bai Ruoxue's identity and half because of his talent.

  Bai Ruoxi was indeed a talented person. Yun Jingchu put a chicken leg into his mouth, evaluating in his heart.

  Next, the young masters of the aristocratic families stood up one by one to show off, and naturally, regardless of whether they were good or not, they would receive a round of applause. The misses would secretly glance at their favorite men, and when they saw them performing well, they would smile quietly like they had eaten honey.

  When the last young master finished reciting his own poem, a woman in white stood up: "Since all of you gentlemen have composed poems, we women can't be weak either, let's each compose one too..."

  This woman is Yuwen Gong's legitimate daughter, Yuwen He's sister - Yuwen Xian, with a reputation far and wide, proud and self-respectful.

  "It's too boring to make poetry, how about we perform a program instead? I'll perform a sword dance." A red-clothed girl suddenly stood up, loudly interrupting Yuwen Xiao's words.

  This young lady is Miss Lin Wenjing from the General's mansion of the town. Her parents named her Wenjing, hoping she would make achievements in literature, but unfortunately, she was more infatuated with martial arts.

  "Good, then let Miss Lin perform for us." Bai Ruoxi smiled slightly and made a inviting gesture with her hand.

  Yuwen Xiang was robbed of the spotlight, and her already cold expression became even colder. She sat down without saying a word, her eyes fixed on Lin Wenjing with a hint of resentment.

  On the other side, Yun Tsui Yu, who was in a daze, suddenly lit up his eyes and looked at Yun Jing Chu with a hint of slyness...
