Chapter 607: Competition

"It's okay, this year's Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet is of great significance, it's good to put it in a festive place, go ask who arranged it, and reward her with ten taels of silver."

Lin Yingxue just picked up her wine glass, and after hearing Murong Hui's words, she shook her head slightly.

After hearing this, Murong Hui didn't say much, and sat quietly on the side as a foil.

Soon heard a rumor that the Duchess of Xu Guo had arrived, Lin Yingxue raised her eyebrows and ordered someone to bring her in.

After Murong Hui heard this, she didn't even raise her head, and she didn't have the slightest interest in this person.

"The courtiers greet the queen."

After Duchess Xu took Coco Xu to salute Lin Yingxue, she sat down, and the position was right next to Murong Hui.

Murong Hui glanced at them, and couldn't help but think about this time in her heart, but she remembered that the position of Duchess Xu Guo was not so high.

Murong Hui was wondering in her heart, and she saw that the women who should come were basically all there.

But Duchess Xu Guo never reacted in particular, and Murong Hui didn't pay much attention to her, just thinking about getting through the more than an hour.

However, she still underestimated these women too much, and as soon as she secretly took out the script, a woman proposed that the ordinary singing and dancing was tacky, and that it was the turn of the officials and ladies to perform their talents.

The enthusiasm of these people was very high, and even Lin Yingxue couldn't refute it, so she had to take a crystal Moon Palace ornament as a colorful head.

If whoever wins, then the crystal ornament will be given to whomever it is.

This made the originally drowsy, all the official ladies wake up, and in the eyes of everyone, it is definitely very face-saving to be able to get a reward from the queen.

Unlike everyone's positive response, Murong Hui only looked at everyone calmly and didn't show too eagerness.

"Princess Linghui is indifferent, thinking that it is something that is often rewarded by the queen's mother, so she doesn't care about such a thing at all."

At this time, Coco Xu on the side suddenly spoke defiantly.

When she said this, she was properly pulling hatred, and she completely pushed Murong Hui to the forefront.

"Hui'er, among these noble girls, you have the highest grade, so how about you start?"

Seeing this, Lin Yingxue glanced at Coco Xu with a rather unhappy expression, and then turned to look at Murong Hui.

Murong Hui knew that she didn't want to hide today, so she hurriedly got up and said, "Erchen obeys the order." Erchen has nothing else to do, but he still has some progress in calligraphy, so these words are ugly. ”

"If you're young, it's okay if you don't write well, just practice more in the future."

Lin Yingxue didn't care at all, in her opinion, a nine-year-old child was too young, what calligraphy could he write?

Murong Hui hurriedly nodded in response, then moved the table over, spread out the paper and pen, and wrote down with a wave of ink under the gaze of everyone.

I was drunk and clapped my hands and sang wildly, raised my arms to invite the moon, and became three guests to the shadow. Dancing and wandering under the wind and dew, I don't know what night it is. If you want to ride the wind and go back, why use riding Pengyi. In the Crystal Palace, the flute was blown off.

It happens to be the next rhyme of Su Shi's "Nian Nujiao Mid-Autumn Festival".

"Hui'er's handwriting is excellent, this palace will never be able to write you so well at your age."

After Lin Yingxue saw Murong Hui's words, a look of surprise couldn't help but appear on her face.

She had long known that Murong Hui was very persistent, learning calligraphy and cooking, but she didn't know how far she had practiced calligraphy, and now she couldn't help but praise it when she saw it.

"Thank you for the praise, if Hui'er can't come out on top, can you give Hui'er that plate of mooncakes with red bean paste?"

Murong Hui smiled, stretched out her little finger and pointed at the moon cake in front of Lin Yingxue.

"I'll bring it to the princess."

When Lin Yingxue heard this, she did not hesitate to order someone to bring the moon cakes to her.

After Murong Hui thanked him, he picked up a piece of moon cake and ate it.

Seeing this, Coco Xu pursed her lips, and said in her heart, it's not a good fate, she was favored by the queen's mother, otherwise with her background, she would have died a hundred times.

However, with Murong Hui taking the lead, the rest of the official ladies also performed one after another.

They basically play musical instruments, and although their level cannot be compared with that of the palace musicians, they can also be seen to be diligent in practice.

When Murong Hui was bored, he saw Lord Wanyi fiddling with the beads in his hand, and he looked like he was thinking of some bad idea.

Murong Hui secretly paid attention to it in her heart, but she didn't pay attention to it, anyway, if she really wanted to calculate whom, she would definitely not be able to hold back for long.

Sure enough, after a group of people finished performing, there was still half an hour left before it was time for the banquet to disperse.

Lin Yingxue glanced at everyone, then said with a smile: "The girls in your family are all well-raised, and this palace likes them." It's just that it's really difficult to choose the first place among these noble girls. ”

"The courtiers think that the painting of the county lord Wanyi is really good."

It is well known that Lord Wanyi is good at painting, coupled with Princess Ling's unremitting publicity, it seems that among the girls of their generation, there is no ability to paint above her.

When Murong Hui heard these things at the beginning, she couldn't help but feel funny in her heart, after all, some things really didn't seem to be able to really improve your level by boasting.

Although the county lord of Wanyi has a bit of talent in paintings, he also loves top-notch temperament, and he wants to be the first in everything, and he is becoming more and more diligent in his paintings.

This made her painting ability reach a bottleneck, and her painting skills were mastered very well, but the craftsmanship was too heavy, and she lost her aura, so it was naturally not attractive.

Many of the ladies here are from very good backgrounds, and their level is not very high, but their eyes are very vicious.

Therefore, after the words of this lady came out, several ladies shook their heads slightly.

"In the eyes of the courtiers, the most brilliant thing this time is the words of Princess Linghui and the painting of the county lord of Wanyi."

At this time, a lady suddenly raised her head and looked at Murong Hui with a smile on her face, her eyes were surprisingly bright.

Murong Hui couldn't help but be stunned, and after thinking for a long time, she finally remembered that this was Princess Ling's sister-in-law, and the relationship between the two was not very good at first glance.

Sure enough, her words successfully made Princess Ling blush.

If it were a different occasion, Princess Ling would have already opened her mouth to scold, but now on this occasion, she could only endure it, and her face turned red.

"The standard of judging this character and painting is different, and the courtiers feel that the two should not be compared together at all."

At this time, Duchess Xu Guo finally spoke, she originally wanted to embarrass Murong Hui, after all, Murong Hui was not particularly friendly to Coco Xu before.

But she didn't expect things to develop to this point, she couldn't help but be a little afraid that the queen would be partial to Murong Hui, and directly gave this reason to Murong Hui.

Wouldn't that Wanyi county lord be scared to death, that aunt and grandmother had never lost.

"Since the queen can't distinguish between the superior and the inferior, how about a match between the courtiers and Princess Linghui?"

Lord Wanyi is not uncommon with any crystal ornaments, she is just unwilling to lose to Murong Hui, so she stood up abruptly and said.

"That's a good idea, so what are you going to compare?"

Lin Yingxue chuckled in her heart, feeling that in comparison, the character of Lord Wanyi was more like Lin Yingxin's daughter.
