Lin Wanrong, who was huddled behind Princess Yanling, saw that everyone was looking at her and realized that Zhao Huaqiong was going to let her play.
For a moment, Lin Wanrong's nervous legs couldn't stop shaking. He clasped his hands tightly, with red eyes, controlled his trembling body, and forced himself to stand up and reply.
Gu Ruizhou and others across from him looked at Zhao Huaqiong with displeasure in their eyes.
Gu Yichen frowned and said, "Brother, Wanrong is timid and doesn't dare to say anything in front of strangers. How dare she recite poems and argue in front of so many people? Why can't this Miss Zhao get along with Yan'er Wanrong?"
Gu Ruizhou said in confusion: "I don't know, An'er, did Yan'er have any enemies with this Miss Zhao after she came back?"
Lin Jinan said with a cold face: "I have never heard Yan'er talk about this person, and I don't know if she has any hysteria."
An Zhixian, who was behind the three of them, was leisurely holding a tea cup and listening to the discussion of the three of them. He glanced at Mr. Ran beside him, who was frowning at Zhao Huaqiong.
Chu Chengping turned sideways towards Chu Chengyi and whispered:
"What's going on with this Zhao Huaqiong? Why do you keep embarrassing the two girls of the Lin family? Although no one talks about Lin Wanrong's life experience publicly, many people know it behind the scenes. If she provokes Lin Wanrong to appear, she will definitely make Lin Wanrong criticized."
Chu Chengyi lazily leaned on the chair:
"I heard that this daughter of the Minister of War has always had a good impression of Xiao Siming. Just now, Xiao Siming showed great kindness to Lin Jinyan. He must have tasted it, so he refused to let go. But don't worry, with Lin Jinyan and Yan Ling here, they won't let that little girl Suffer a loss."
Chu Chengye only found out about Lin Wanrong's life experience after listening to the whispers from his confidants behind him, and couldn't help but frown:
"This is the moment when we are on good terms with the Lin family. Why is Zhao Zhongjing's daughter so crazy?"
When the prince and the queen saw this, they actually had smiles in their eyes, wishing that Zhao Huaqiong would make more trouble.
Lin Jinyan smiled, turned around and took Lin Wanrong's hand to comfort her softly.
Princess Yanling also stood up, held down Lin Wanrong's trembling figure, pushed her half-standing body back to the seat, glared at Zhao Huaqiong and said:
"Zhao Huaqiong, if you want to compete in the competition, just go by yourself. If others don't want to be in the limelight, why bother you? The Queen and other empresses didn't ask anyone to compete, but you are different. You keep making noises. You will be the bride. Can’t it be done?”
Zhao Huaqiong was furious after hearing this and wanted to retort, but due to the occasion and the presence of all the princes and concubines, he did not dare to explode, so he endured it, suppressed his anger and choked his neck and said:
"I just admire the master's knowledge and want to see the talents of the descendants of the Lin family. Why does the princess have to be so aggressive? She is just going on the stage to read poems, not going to the battlefield. Everyone else is going, so why can't Miss Lin go?"
Princess Yanling: "You have to go there if you want to see others? You have such a big face. Do you usually use a basin to apply powder?"
Zhao Huaqiong said angrily: "You...I just admire you and have no ill intentions. Is Miss Lin shady? Why does the princess say this to me?"
Feng Siyao put down the tea cup, stood up and said calmly:
"Ms. Zhao, if you want to see someone, you should be willing to do it. If others don't want to, you force people to come on. Even if you don't have any malice, you still lack some courtesy."
Zhao Huaqiong was at a loss for words. He saluted the queen and apologized:
"Empress, I really want to see the descendants of the Lin family, so I spoke a little rashly. Please forgive me. Since it is inconvenient for Miss Lin, and the Princess and Miss Feng don't know why, they are so afraid of Miss Lin being exposed to others, then Just pretend that I didn’t say anything.”
