"Tell dad honestly, why did the fifth prince come to you today?"
Because he was a little angry, he couldn't help but slap the table with his hand.
"Dad, didn't the fifth prince tell you everything? He just came to see his daughter. Do you not believe the fifth prince or your daughter?"
Seeing her father's angry look, Song Jinse was a little frightened. She pouted her lips and said aggrievedly.
This trick usually worked very well in front of his father, but today it suddenly didn't work. Looking at the coquettish Song Jinse in front of him, Song Ye's anger still remained.
"I don't believe either of you two! Hurry up and tell the truth."
Song Ye spoke to Song Jinse in a slightly scolding tone, speaking more urgently than before.
"Okay, okay, daddy, don't be angry, I just said that."
"Actually, it's nothing. The fifth prince just invited me to attend the Hairpin Conference." Song Jinse said lightly.
"Don't go!"
Song Ye said categorically. At this point, he couldn't help but slapped the table hard, frowned, and spoke to her sternly. This time, it really scared Song Jinse, who had been very scared since childhood.
Respecting her choice, she never expected that her father would be so angry about this matter today.
"What's wrong? Isn't it just a small competition? Is dad doing this because he is afraid that his daughter will embarrass you?"
Looking at her angry father, Song Jinse just felt very baffled. She expressed her thoughts unabashedly. The first shot she took when she first entered the capital was very important. She could either stand out from the crowd or be embarrassed.
But it was obvious that she misunderstood what her father meant.
At this moment, Song Ye was breathing heavily in anger. He frowned and looked at Song Jinse with hatred, and hesitated several times.
He raised his hand several times, and finally put it down helplessly.
Before he could speak, Song Jinse continued to speak: "Dad, I have to attend this Hairpin Conference anyway. I have already promised to the fifth prince. Dad doesn't want me to
Are you regretting it?"
She stamped her foot coquettishly and spoke forcefully.
Hearing such words, Song Ye felt even more angry and couldn't help but let out another sigh.
At this point, they have no room for regret. Since they have agreed to Bei Mingchen, Song Jinse must participate in this competition.
He slowly raised his head, looked at the trembling baby girl standing in front of him, softened his eyes, and spoke to her earnestly.
"Son, if you want to attend this Hairpin Conference, Daddy won't stop you."
"Thank you, Daddy. I know that Daddy loves me the most."
After hearing those words, Song Jinse breathed a sigh of relief. She slowly walked forward, took one of Song Ye's hands, and shook it back and forth coquettishly.
"It's just that, child, you have to understand one thing. On the day of the hairpin competition, the people sitting there are all nobles and nobles. During the competition, you must pay special attention to your words and deeds. Don't do anything inappropriate.
Do what you should do, and don't offend the people you shouldn't offend."
Song Ye looked at his daughter kindly and explained carefully that as soon as he entered the Hou family, he didn't want his daughter to be dyed by the dye vat. But Song Jinse listened carefully and firmly.
Remembering what her father told her in her heart.
"Dad, don't worry, my daughter knows it well," she said without hesitation. "Dad, don't worry, I will definitely prepare well, I will definitely win glory for you, and I will never lose us.
People from the Song family."
"Okay, I know that my daughter will definitely be the best." Song Ye said with a slight smile.
The Hairpin Competition is only held every four years. The entire event is personally prepared by the royal family, and all participating ladies from famous families must be personally witnessed by the Queen. The Hairpin Competition is also considered a very important competition in the capital.
As early as a month before the Hairpin Conference, preparations began to get busy in the capital.
However, Xiyan has been staying in Prince Xiao's Mansion all day and night these days and has never gone out at all. Naturally, she has no idea about the changes that have taken place outside.
Bei Mingchen hasn't visited her for many days recently. In fact, she thinks it's good to be alone. It's quite comfortable to be alone, raise flowers, and be in a daze.
Until one day, a person's sudden visit broke her peaceful life these days.
On this day, Shuojin secretly entered Prince Xiao's Mansion again and quietly came to the courtyard where Miss Xiyan lived.
Xiyan was very surprised when she saw him. Although she was a little surprised at first, she thought of what Bei Mingchen told her. She quickly put away her happy expression and put on a smile.
With a cold look, An An spoke to him angrily.
"Hey, why are you here again?" As she spoke, she glanced to the side indifferently.
"I have prepared a little surprise for you."
Shuojin saw Miss Xiyan and saw that her health was getting better and better, so he just talked happily and didn't notice her complicated expression at this time.
"Oh." Xiyan answered him simply. At this moment, she was unwilling to say a word.
"Dang-dang-dang!"
Shuojin said happily as he took out a delicate hairpin from his sleeve and handed it to Xiyan.
For a moment, Xiyan's attention was completely attracted by the hairpin. However, she just looked at the hairpin from a distance and did not reach out to take it.
The main color of the hairpin is green, but it is not a very deep green, nor a very dazzling green, but the color of ordinary vegetation.
To be honest, the pattern on the hairpin is also very ordinary, but it looks very distinctive. Although the pattern carved on it is not as delicate as the Ling'an flower, each petal is unique and the whole flower is lifelike.
If you really compare it with Ling'an Flower, it is not inferior.
Although the patterns on the hairpin are just ordinary grass and trees, they look so warm and give people a very comfortable feeling. Although every part of the hairpin looks very beautiful individually.
It's ordinary, but overall it looks so grand.
This look really suited Xiyan's taste, low-key yet not lacking, exquisite. However, Xiyan quickly suppressed her inner joy. She put away the slightly raised corners of her mouth just now and continued to put on a new one.
A cold look.
"Why did you give me this thing for no reason?" She said to Shuojin in an extremely plain tone.
"Girl, take it first and I'll tell you."
Shuo Jin raised his eyebrows at her and said deliberately in a nonchalant manner, still looking so unruly.
Helpless, Xiyan had no choice but to take the hairpin from Shuojin's hand.
However, Xi Yan did not carefully put away the hairpin like before, nor did she eagerly put the hairpin on her head like before.
She just held it gently in her left hand, not tightly at all, as if she was about to throw it away at any time.
"Okay, can you speak now?"
After taking the hairpin, Xiyan couldn't wait to speak. Although her speaking speed was a little urgent, her tone was still very cold.
"Does the girl know about the Hairpin Conference?"
It was only then that Shuojin noticed her restraint and hurriedly explained, but at this moment, he just thought that the reason why Xiyan was unwilling to accept the gift he gave her was because she didn't understand his intention.
"what is that?"
Xiyan asked curiously, she was really curious about what kind of activity it was.
But as soon as she said these words, she already regretted it. She obviously wanted to pretend not to care, and she wanted to try to distance herself from him as much as possible, so why did she show interest again.
"Whatever it is? I'm not interested anyway." Thinking of this, Xi Yan hurriedly changed her words.
"Girl, why are you so anxious? You haven't listened to me yet. How do you know whether you are interested or not?" Shuo Jin said with a slight smile.
Shuojin didn't care whether Miss Xiyan was really not interested or not, he just explained the Hairpin Conference to her. A bystander said that he was as excited as if he wanted to participate.
"The Hairpin Conference is a conference specially prepared for women in the Hualing Kingdom."
In the old society, there were not many opportunities for women.
"Those prestigious ladies from famous families will go to such a conference, especially those talented women, who hope to show off their talents at the Hairpin Conference..."
Shuojin talked nonstop for a long time. He introduced the situation of the Hairpin Conference to Miss Xiyan in detail, and told Xiyan everything he knew. Because he was afraid that there might be something wrong.
He didn't explain it in detail. He even took the trouble to explain it many times. He was as verbose as an old woman.
At this moment, Xiyan was listening there silently. She looked at him calmly without saying a word. No matter how excited Shuojin said, she stood silently aside, neither sad nor happy.
After Shuojin finished speaking, Xiyan said lightly, but her tone still sounded so cold.
"Oh, from what you said, it seems that this Hairpin Conference is not suitable for me."
In fact, listening to his vivid description there, Xi Yan was a little moved. She bit her thin lips tightly. Although others could not see her small movements, she was strong enough to bite her thin lips.
