I heard that a new teahouse has opened near the suburbs, and the tea and pastries in it are all top-notch, both in terms of quality and taste. What's more, it is said that the plaque of his house is the royal autograph, and Su Manxue went to admire it, and the taste is really good.

It's just that since he is under the royal banner, the little guy inside is not a money-seeker, Su Manxue has booked a room in it for a long time, and now if she wants to charter the sky, it is probably not a difficult thing.

Su Manxue quickly got everything done, and then invited all the ladies to come and play. It is said that it is to try the guqin, calligraphy and painting, etc., no matter whether you win or lose, there are lottery heads, and the lady who won the first place in each competition has top prizes.

And the judges were musicians invited by Su Manxue from Yuefu, and the calligraphy and painting also invited well-known masters of the dynasty, and the girls who had ambitions to marry the prince of the dynasty were even more eager to try, wanting to get the famous teacher in advance, so that the future road to the concubine would be more certain.

What's more, the color given by Su Manxue will not be stingy, and the girls who didn't deal with Su Manxue at the last flower viewing banquet also want to get Su Manxue's favor, after all, Su Manxue is generous, and it's not a bad thing to make such a friend.

Su Manxue knew very well in her heart that Chu Yin was indispensable at this time, not to mention that she did not miss an invitation to the palace, and Chu Yin did not live up to her conjecture.

"Sister Manxue." Chu Yin was much more generous than last time, and when he came up, he said hello to Su Manxue, "It was Brother Shizi who sent Yin'er here just now, and Yin'er doesn't have her own sedan chair." This time the place is far away, can Sister Manxue take a ride on the way home? ”

Su Manxue thought that if she refused her, she was afraid that Gu Qin's annoying person would appear again, so she immediately ordered someone to prepare another sedan chair for her.

"Sister Yin'er, don't worry, when the time comes, I will let the two right-hand men beside me accompany you, Xia Xia doesn't like to see people, so I won't give it to you."

Chu Yin didn't say much, she had tried it out these few times, Su Manxue really didn't have any other thoughts about Gu Qin, she was only afraid that Gu Qin wanted to eat back grass now.

As for her coming this time to inquire, and secondly, to prove her strength, if she can achieve one or two results and return to the palace, presumably the prince and the princess will also appreciate her more.

On weekdays, she studied in the private school set up by the palace, and she also learned a lot with Brother Gu, so she naturally will not show her timidity now.

The competition soon began, and the girls who were not in the competition tasted tea and pastries, while watching the beautiful dancing of the ladies, some praised some envy and some were jealous.

Fortunately, Su Manxue had already ordered that if someone wanted to cheat or destroy someone else's exam, as long as she could show evidence, she would definitely send someone to the government, otherwise there might be a lot of episodes in this competition.

"Pingyang Wangfu Chu Yin." The little maid in the newspaper read Chu Yin's name, and Su Manxue looked at Chu Yin, who was charming and moving on the stage, and couldn't help but sigh.

Although Chu Yin has been testing her these days, he has not done her much harm, at most he has made a slight mistake in words.

As soon as she thought of the ups and downs of Chu Yin and Gu Qin in her previous life, she still felt so sorry for this girl, although Gu Qin really hated it.

She believes that the so-called fate marriage is not the marriage letter between her and Gu Qin, she and Ji Jiuhua are the fate that the Taoist priest said at the beginning.

"Mrs. Ji, you have been staring at Miss Chu, I don't know how Miss Chu is doing?"

The sharp-eyed young lady saw Su Manxue staring at Chu Yin in a daze, and she didn't know what she was thinking, so she couldn't help but ask.

"Sister Yin'er is a good girl who can do things, be a person, dance, calligraphy and paint, I believe she will definitely get her own happiness." Su Manxue looked back at the girl, very firm.

She had seen the happy ending between them in her previous life, and she believed that in this life, as long as Gu Qin was still so firm and loyal, they would definitely be the same as in the previous life.

"Thank you, Mrs. Ji."

Chu Yin didn't know when she was standing behind the two, but Su Manxue knew that Chu Yin listened to everything she said.

Su Manxue looked at her smile, and remembered the scene of Princess Pingyang in the previous life forcing her to die, and her face was a little more solemn.

It's not that she's worried about Chu Yin, she just doesn't like Princess Pingyang.

Although Chu Yin is not a rich lady, she is also a relative of Pingyang Palace, and she can study with the private school of Pingyang Palace. Because she is also smart and hard-working, her calligraphy and painting classes are also good.

This time she actually reported all the projects, although dancing and guqin are not what she is best at, but she also knows a little bit about it, and she will not fall behind when she performs on stage.

Sure enough, the musician didn't have any words of praise for her decent performance, just nodded flatly.

However, the paintings made by Chu Yin on the spot were unanimously recognized by the court painters, and the master also said that the hairpin flower Xiaokai that Chu Yin mentioned on it should be the first.

Chu Yin stood aside without arrogance or impatience, and only showed a faint smile.

Because of the previous flower viewing banquet, of course, all the ladies regarded Chu Yin as the center of attention, and what achievements Chu Yin had achieved Everyone looked at Su Manxue, not knowing what she should think.

Su Manxue didn't think about it, and gave the treasure of the town store that she bought that day to Chu Yin to make a colorful head.

"Yin'er is very grateful to Mrs. Ji today." Chu Yin also took off his guard against Su Manxue, who had no malicious intent, and thanked him before getting into the sedan chair.

Although she also wanted to persuade Gu Qin, she was powerless, not to mention that she wanted Gu Qin to focus on herself.

"You're welcome." Su Manxue was also ready to get into the sedan chair, watching her raise her hand towards herself, and she was already wearing the green bracelet on her arm, "You deserve it." ”

She doesn't ask others to be grateful to her, she is grateful, she just wants to have a clear conscience.

This time, when Su Manxue returned to Ji Mansion, she finally didn't see Gu Qin like a peacock opening the screen.

After Su Manxue got off the sedan chair, she fled directly into the Ji Mansion, she knew that Chu Yin was sitting on the sedan chair in the back, and with Cai Wei Cailian to take care of, she would definitely not have any accidents.

Of course, she didn't want to deal with Chu Yin at all, Su Manxue was afraid that she would miss out when she looked at Chu Yin. There are some things she doesn't want to go against the sky, not to mention that this kind of thing is not suitable for her, she just wants to live it smoothly.

The cost of this tea banquet is a lot more than the last flower viewing banquet, just for the lottery heads for the ladies present, it cost thousands of silver, not to mention the expenses required to drink tea and eat pastries in the teahouse, and invite so many famous teachers.

The Ji family and his wife have no opinion, Ji Jiuhua has no opinion, and Su Manxue has no opinion.

But Su Manxue was told by a letter to Lizhou City.
