Chapter 37: A Blockbuster 1
Today is the Nanyue Kingdom's triennial young man and talented girl competition. All unmarried men and women over the age of thirteen and under the age of twenty across the country can participate. Of course, because of the large number of participants, each place went through a round at the beginning.
In the preliminary round, only a few dozen people were shortlisted.
The first thing to start is the men's competition. The men's competition mainly focuses on civil and military aspects. The person who wins in the end is known as the First Young Master.
The men's and women's competitions are held separately, so no one knows the progress of both sides.
Lan Ruoxi sat on a chair and yawned repeatedly. This kind of competition was so boring. She might as well go to Jinlai Garden to count the coins. Looking at the coquettish women and their coy expressions, she felt
nausea.
The women competed in four aspects: piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. To be honest, except for painting, Lan Ruoxi couldn't do anything. If Qingcheng Hao hadn't forced her to come, she wouldn't have come to this place. For this palace
, she doesn’t have a good impression at all. The last time she was humiliated by the emperor has always been a thorn in her heart. But she is the emperor, and she doesn’t have the ability to fight with him yet.
However, this bad breath will come out of her sooner or later.
"Next, General Lan Hong's eldest daughter Lan Ruoxi appears."
The eunuch stood on the stage and shouted at the top of his lungs, which made Lan Ruoxi frown. Why do these eunuchs have such high-pitched voices? They are neither male nor female, and it is really uncomfortable to listen to them.
Lan Ruoxi didn't know anything about the piano that was being competed at this time. Especially the guzheng, it was really terrible.
However, because this game adopts a head-to-head system, two people compete together. The winning side is considered to advance.
As soon as Lan Ruoxi came on the stage, the people below started whispering, "Isn't that a fool from the General's Mansion? Why is she also here to participate in the competition?"
"Yeah, I guess I'm here to embarrass myself."
"Haha, we encounter so many people who overestimate their abilities every time, we should get used to it."
Listening to those people's ridicule, Lan Ruoxi didn't take it seriously. She didn't care about talented or not talented women, and they couldn't be used as food, so what would they do if they won.
Anyway, the previous Lan Ruoxi was a fool, and they were right.
However, when Lan Ruoxi came on stage, she inadvertently glanced at the woman who was competing. Seeing the disdain and ridicule in her eyes, she suddenly became angry.
Does that woman also have a grudge against her?
Please, she doesn't even know who that person is, okay?
Is she unjust?
Sitting in front of the piano table, I looked at the guzheng in front of me. It was as big as my head. How do I play this thing?
Lan Ruoxi was a fool in the past. Of course she had never learned these things. Even if she inherited Lan Ruoxi's memories now, she wouldn't be able to play them out.
It’s really terrible!
"If you don't know how to play, just admit defeat as soon as possible to avoid wasting everyone's time."
The woman she was competing with suddenly spoke up, but the words she said were unpleasant to the ears.
Lan Ruoxi has that kind of temperament. The more others provoke her, the stronger her fighting power becomes. This will clearly show that she is looked down upon by others. Should she still swallow her anger?
Besides, this is not her character.
He blinked at the other party and said, "I have plenty of time. If you don't have time, you can just admit defeat."
"You..." The woman blushed angrily, but due to the presence of so many people, she couldn't say much, so she could only put down her harsh words and said, "Okay, I'll see how you lose later.
