Lei Yunxia has been treated as a princess since she was a child, and she has long been accustomed to that sense of superiority. Bai Wanrou, whom she happened to meet, is also a soft-tempered person, which makes her feel that everyone should follow her for granted.
Lin Yueyi's appearance at this moment undoubtedly disrupted her arrogance, and she couldn't bear it deep down, not to mention that she was still in a foreign country.
She took a step forward as if to defend some dignity, and her aura looked very intimidating.
But neither of them cursed like shrews in the market. They also knew that they were being stared at by countless pairs of eyes, so no matter how angry they were, their words were always gentle and soft-spoken.
This is difficult for Lin Yueyi. Although she was raised pampered, she always pretended to be a lady in front of her father, and her voice has been lowered unconsciously for a long time.
Now when arguing with Lei Yunxia, she sounds like she is outclassed.
"Why, does the majestic Princess Yunxia not even understand what others say?"
There were some noisy sounds in the hall, and people's voices were so noisy that people who were farther away could not hear her clearly.
I could vaguely see Lei Yunxia's face change, and then a loud word reached everyone's ears, "How dare you, you also know that I am Princess Yunxia, how dare you not even show the most basic respect?"
As soon as these words came out, not only Lin Yueyi, but almost everyone panicked.
Everyone knows the purpose of today's palace banquet in name only, and also knows why the emperor invited the crown prince and Princess Yunxia to attend.
It is precisely because of this that they cannot offend these two people, otherwise Lin Yueyi will not be the only one who will be unlucky.
While she was stumbling to retort, another clear voice interrupted the argument between the two, "Okay, Yueyi, as the host, you should know some etiquette, come back and sit down."
She turned her head following the voice, and the person who stopped her was Princess Minghua, the current Holy Sister.
Princess Minghua is actually not much different from her. She has a flamboyant personality and grew up in the royal family, so she naturally has a bit of self-centered nobility.
The only difference between them is probably their appearance. Lin Yueyi's appearance is very deceptive, making anyone who sees her think she is an obedient young lady.
Chen Minghua, on the other hand, is just the opposite. He has a bright appearance and an aura of pride in his eyebrows.
But she didn't know if it was her misunderstanding, but she always felt that Chen Minghua glanced at Bai Wanrou when he said this.
But then I thought about it, since the two of them had nothing to do with each other, she must have been mistaken.
What she didn't know was that Chen Minghua was indeed secretly observing Bai Wanrou, and even called her to stop, because of Bai Wanrou.
These two people had such a quarrel in public over Chen Ruzhi. It would not be an exaggeration to say that they made a fool of themselves.
Even so, Bai Wanrou still had a calm expression on her face, as if it didn't matter to her, and she sat calmly on the cushion.
Such a calm reaction really surprised Chen Minghua. She had investigated Bai Wanrou and found out that she loved Chen Ruzhi the most and always ran behind him.
It was precisely because of this that she allowed them to quarrel today, just to see if Bai Wanrou would ruin the palace banquet out of jealousy.
It turned out that she was wrong, so she cut her losses in time to minimize the impact of this incident.
"The Emperor has arrived——"
The eunuch's voice was made high-pitched and long, as if he was speaking deliberately to end this unexpected incident that should not exist.
Lei Yunxia, who originally wanted to mock a few more words, had no choice but to sit back on the mat obediently.
She doesn't have the ability to stand up to Emperor Chen, and her brother will never let her do anything like this.
But she was still angry inside.
Although this anger was provoked by Lin Yueyi, she still subconsciously wanted to get something back from Bai Wanrou.
So the emperor and the queen had just taken their seats, and she stood up impatiently, "Your Majesty, it's hard for us to come here once, so it would be a pity to have a banquet like this."
She deliberately lowered her voice when she spoke, and she didn't sound like she was looking for trouble. The emperor also asked in a dignified manner: "Oh? What do you think Princess Yunxia is good for?"
Lei Yunxia curled her lips, "Of course we want to exchange the culture of Xiling and Chen."
She didn't mention Bai Wanrou's name at this time, so the emperor naturally had no reason to refuse. Besides, her status here this time was unusual, so she should try not to offend her if possible.
"In that case, let's see who you want to talk to to communicate with you."
Lei Yunxia was waiting for this sentence and answered without thinking: "I have admired the name of Princess Jian'an for a long time. I wonder if I will be lucky enough to be a dance partner with her today?"
"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Princess Yunxia. I don't know how to dance." Bai Wanrou was not surprised that she would call him, and there was no trace of shock on her face. She still calmly put the cup down on the table.
The glass reflected Lei Yunxia's face. She was livid with anger at her words. She endured it again and again, and continued: "It's okay. We can also compete in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, as long as the princess is willing."
She believed that this condition was quite loose, or that it was enough to prevent Bai Wanrou from coming to Taiwan.
"Unfortunately, none of these court ladies know how to do it." Bai Wanrou's voice was very soft, and she could not hear the ups and downs of her emotions. Her eyes were illuminated and did not appear that dark. When she looked at Lei Yunxia, she felt an inexplicable uneasiness in her heart.
.
Her eyelids twitched, and she sneered without hesitation, "Prince Jian'an really married a good wife, but he doesn't even know these things, and he doesn't know what he can accomplish."
If there are still people who can't see her true intentions at this moment, they are really stupid.
Chen Ruzhi was not stupid, so he knew that. He wanted to stand up and refute, but his sleeve was tugged.
He turned his head and looked at Bai Wanrou's profile, "Your Highness, you don't have to stand up for me, someone will answer my question."
She didn't understand what she said. Chen Ruzhi frowned and was about to ask who it was when he heard Lin Yueyi's voice.
"My daughter has learned some basic skills in the palace. At least she is much better than Princess Jian'an. I wonder if Princess Yunxia is willing to give it a try?"
It was clear that what he said was true, but Chen Ruzhi felt that it sounded harsh, and even though he knew it well, he still insisted on emphasizing what the middle half of the sentence was about.
He felt an indescribable discomfort welling up in his heart, a bit like Lin Feng and Lin Yi being talked about outside.
Probably... a calf protector?
When he thought of this word, Chen Ru subconsciously shook his head.
How could it be possible? He didn't have such feelings for Bai Wanrou.
"What's wrong, Your Majesty? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" A gentle voice sounded in his ears, and he was suddenly startled, and then he realized that she had seen what he had just done.
"No, no, why do you care so much? It has nothing to do with you." Chen Ruzhi felt a little guilty, and the meaning of covering up became particularly obvious.
I don't know if Bai Wanrou saw it or not, but she just obeyed his words and never cared about him again after that.
During this period, her eyes met Bai Qingting's once, and she could see obvious impatience and annoyance in them.
Bai Wanrou was wondering, and then she saw Bai Qingyao sitting next to him, and her mouth didn't stop. She immediately understood where that expression came from.
If nothing else, she would be speaking ill of herself in front of her brother right now.
"Tsk, I don't know how my eldest sister married into the prince's palace like this. The prince still doesn't despise her and is so devoted to her."
Bai Qingyao clicked her tongue, very dissatisfied with Bai Wanrou's unworthy behavior.
After all, she had been raised like an ordinary daughter since she was a child. She had to learn some of this and some of that, just to prevent her future husband from looking down on her.
She will never experience such freedom and ease as Bai Wanrou in her entire life, so how can she not be jealous?
"Qingyao, you can't talk like that. No matter what, Wanrou is still your sister, how can you say anything wrong with her?"
Bai Fuzhong doesn't value brotherhood and sisterhood very much. They all know in their hearts that Bai Qingting said this simply because he wanted to stand up for Bai Wanrou.
Bai Qingyao became even more unhappy. Taking advantage of the fact that there were no Bai family members around, she rolled her eyes and wanted to fight back, but found that it was not her turn at all.
At that time, the dance music on the stage had come to an end, and Lei Yunxia was free, so she did not miss any opportunity to mock Bai Wanrou.
"As expected of the daughter of the Lin family, she does have some abilities. It's not like some people who clearly know that she is the daughter of Marquis Bai, but they know nothing and can't do anything."
To say that what she said was cryptic is not to say that, after all, there were only two daughters of Marquis Bai in the hall, and the only legitimate daughter was Bai Wanrou.
To say what she said clearly, she used "certain people" to cover it up.
The person who was being spoken to was neither left nor right. Bai Wanrou only felt that more eyes were falling on her.
She didn't like the feeling of being looked at, and realized that she had to give them a blow.
"Princess Yunxia just said that she wanted to compete with my daughter. I thought about it and thought that archery and poetry writing are not bad. I wonder if Princess Yunxia is still interested?"
"nature!"
After finally getting Bai Wanrou to agree, how could Lei Yunxia let go of this opportunity to embarrass her.
However, after a while, the poems written by the two were dried out, the cloth and paper were hung on the shelf, and the wet ink turned into a thick mass.
Lei Yunxia clearly heard the fat man's uproar, but unfortunately it was not for herself, but for Bai Wanrou.
She gritted her teeth and stared at the poem written by Bai Wanrou, feeling only resentful in her heart.
As a princess, she even lost to Bai Wanrou in such an easy matter. Where could she put her face?
Before she could win back the victory in the second round, she heard Bai Wanrou's words.
"Princess Yunxia is very powerful, and I admire her, but such a simple competition is too boring. I think the princess won't like it either, right?"
Lei Yunxia raised her eyebrows. When she was asked to accept the challenge before, she always kept silent and looked submissive, but now she is able to put forward conditions.
Her interest was aroused and she wanted to see Bai Wanrou lively, so she followed her words and asked, "I wonder if the princess has any good ideas?" jj.br
"Of course, we will add more conditions to the competition to make it more difficult. Wouldn't it be interesting?"
Bai Wanrou's voice was faint, making Lei Yunxia sound like she had planned it in advance.
But she has a character that refuses to admit defeat. How could she be at a disadvantage in this matter?
So as expected, "Okay!"
