After eating a closed door from the king of Anyang, Chu Yufei had a gloomy face on the way back.

Qin Xue Chuxue, who was sitting in the same carriage with him, could also feel the cold air emanating from the man's body.

"Hmph, I really don't know what to do."

Suddenly, Chu Yufei said viciously, but Qin Xue Chuxue did not speak.

There is no need to guess, she also knows who the other party is talking about.

For some reason, Qin Xue Chuxue had a trace of happiness in her heart.

She has seen Chu Yufei's personality clearly, and if her father hadn't agreed to Chu Yufei's wooing, it might still be a good thing.

Since ancient times, there has been no good end for those who have participated in partisanship.

In this way, if the Anyang Palace can be preserved, it is also a good result.

It's just that she didn't say these words.

When he returned to the palace, Chu Yufei's face still hadn't gotten better.

Qin Xue Chuxue didn't want to conflict with him, so she went back to her room directly.

Chu Yufei was angry, and went directly to the palace.

"Queen Mother, the third prince is here."

The palace maid came to report, and Queen Lin put down the bait in her hand, then stood up and walked towards the pavilion on the side.

"Let him come in and find me."

"Yes."

The palace maid got the words and turned to go out, and a moment later, Chu Yufei's figure appeared in the back garden.

"See the concubine."

Chu Yufei stepped forward to salute Queen Lin, and then came to sit down opposite her.

"How about you try the small snacks you just made in the imperial dining room and see how it tastes?"

Before Chu Yufei could speak, Queen Lin directly pushed the small plate on the table in front of him.

Chu Yufei had no choice but to endure his words, reached out and picked up a small snack and took a bite.

It's just that he is very uncomfortable in his heart because of the matter of King Anyang, and he has no appetite at all.

Empress Lin looked at her son, narrowed her eyes slightly, and poured a cup of tea for Chu Yufei.

"Did King Anyang refuse?"

Chu Yufei paused, raised his head and looked at his queen mother with some surprise.

He hasn't even talked about it, how can the queen mother know?

"Didn't you go back with your princess today to visit your family? Looking at you like this, the queen mother can guess that King Anyang didn't agree to your wooing, doesn't she? ”

As if she had seen through her son's thoughts, Queen Lin smiled slightly, and then explained.

"Since King Anyang doesn't agree, then we'll think of other ways."

She also knows a little bit about the temper of King Anyang, if it is something she is unwilling to do, no matter how hard she forces him, he will not agree.

Chu Yufei seemed to be a little unwilling, but since the queen mother had already said so, he had no choice but to give up.

"In half a month, it will be the annual talent competition in the palace. As long as you can let your princess win the first place, there will be a heavy reward on the Queen Mother's side at that time. ”

Empress Lin opened her mouth to speak, her eyes fixed on her son.

She believed that her son was a smart man, and since this opportunity was gone, she would seize another one.

Chu Yufei's eyes suddenly lit up, he had forgotten that there was such a competition.

If he can win the first place in the talent competition, he will be rewarded by the Queen Mother, and if he can have a good relationship with the Queen Mother, he will also have a big backer in the court.

After all, compared with the Queen Mother and the King of Anyang, the two are not the same level at all.

"Thank you for the reminder, my son knows what to do."

After Empress Lin's words, Chu Yufei suddenly understood.

"It's good to know the queen mother's intentions, you go back first, the queen mother is going to rest."

Nodding and saluting, Chu Yufei left.

After returning to the palace, Chu Yufei immediately told Qin Xue Chuxue the news.

"This talent competition is a good opportunity, as long as we can get the top few places, we will get a lot of rewards."

"And the most important thing is that you can get closer to the Queen Mother when the time comes."

Chu Yufei had his own plans in his heart, and when Qin Xue Chuxue heard this, he also had his own plans in his heart.

She is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the talent competition is a piece of cake for her.

Since every princess and princess has to sign up for this kind of talent competition, then Qin Xue Chuhan will definitely participate.

She wanted to take advantage of this talent competition to stomp Qin Xue Chuhan's slut under her feet.

That's what she's really trying to do this time.

The two of them each had different thoughts, and Qin Xue Chuxue quickly signed up.

She was thinking in her heart about how to make Qin Xue Chuhan lose face when the time came.

"Talent competition?"

After Qin Xue Chu heard what Chu Xinying said, she was fiercely surprised.

She had never heard of such a contest in the palace, and in her opinion, it was nothing more than a matter of currying favor with the leader.

Competing for beauty, doing anything for the sake of the competition, she has not seen this situation before.

But the helpless point is that this talent competition must also be participated in by every royal concubine.

Like her, the seventh princess, she must also participate.

Now she can't run away if she wants to, if she doesn't participate, it will only be Chu Xinying who will be ridiculed.

So in order not to let her husband be ridiculed, she has to go to this competition anyway.

Qin Xue Chuhan instantly felt that she was under a lot of pressure, and Su Qin couldn't help but snicker as she watched from the side.

"What are you laughing at!"

Glancing at Suqin, Qin Xue said angrily.

"The slave just feels that the princess has a great responsibility, and the princess is gorgeous, and she will definitely win the first place in this competition."

Su Qin said confidently, and Chu Xinying also nodded on the side.

“……”

Qin Xue Chuhan suddenly felt that this was the pit that Chu Xinying, a stinky man, dug for himself.

But now there is no way, Chu Xinying has already registered her directly, there is still half a month left, she has to prepare well.

Half a month passed quickly, Qin Xue Chuhan practiced hard for half a month, and achieved a result that he thought was not bad at noon.

Chu Xinying and Su Qin agreed that her cooking skills were very good, and when it was time to compete, Qin Xue Chuhan could choose to focus on cooking competitions.

The competition is held in the palace, and there are no competitions, and only the winners of the first round will be able to advance to the next round.

And it's a two-by-two competition, and the opponent relies on the draw.

But fortunately, everyone has a chance to have a bye, and if they have a bye, they can advance directly.

"Why are there so many people?"

When she came to the palace, Qin Xue Chuhan looked at the many princesses and princesses, as if walking in the flowerbeds, watching them bloom and compete for beauty.

Su Qin accompanied Qin Xue Chuhan, except for the concubines of each prince and prince, all the royal relatives and relatives sat on the onlookers.
