"To answer the question, my little girl just turned fifteen three months ago." Yun Jingchu replied respectfully.
"Are you proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting?" Concubine Dong Xian continued to ask.
Yun Jingchu was silent for a moment, with a hint of embarrassment on his face, and then he stuttered and replied: "To answer the question, my little girl was...still an idiot three months ago, so she has never learned these things. Recently...
…I make up for it a little bit, and I only understand…a little bit.”
As soon as Yun Jingchu said these words, there was a burst of sneers from the crowd. On the imperial steps, Yun Xiyu's eyes flashed with a hint of schadenfreude, while Dongfang Chen frowned slightly, with an unknown glint flashing in his eyes.
mood.
Concubine Dong Xian was also stunned for a moment, and then looked at Dongfang Chen: "Your Majesty, do you have any other questions?"
Dongfang Chen cleared his throat and did not ask a question, but said calmly: "Miss Yunwu used to be stupid, so it is understandable that she did not learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Prime Minister Yun said that Miss Yunwu is completely healed now.
She is smarter than ordinary people, I believe she will be proficient in these things soon." She was actually explaining to Yun Jingchu.
Hearing this, Yun Xiyu looked at Dongfang Chen in surprise, then lowered his eyes to cover up the jealousy in his eyes.
Wang Yuyan also looked at Dongfang Chen in surprise, then looked at Yun Jingchu, and began to look at him carefully.
A complex emotion flashed through Concubine Dong Xian's eyes. She cleared her throat, looked at Yun Xiyu and Wang Yuyan, and said calmly: "Sister Imperial Concubine, Sister Concubine De, do you have any other questions to ask?"
Yun Xiyu and Wang Yuyan were silent for a while, and then Wang Yuyan spoke first. She looked at Concubine Dong Xian and said with a smile: "My sister is participating in the concubine selection for the first time. I wonder if this is the case with Miss Yun Wu. Will she be judged to have failed?"
Concubine Dong Xian's eyes flashed slightly, and she looked at Yun Jingchu, who was standing quietly with her eyes lowered. She couldn't see clearly what she was thinking. She was silent for a moment and then said: "...In the end, it still depends on the emperor's wishes."
"Oh." Wang Yuyan nodded as if she suddenly understood, and then glanced at Dongfang Chen, who had a gloomy face, and said no more.
Here, not getting the answer he wanted, Yun Xiyu was a little anxious, his eyes flashed slightly, and then he said: "Yes, Your Majesty, please give my concubine's fifth sister a chance. Although the fifth sister has an ordinary appearance, she is also
She doesn’t know how to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she should have other talents. The emperor should give her a chance to show off her other talents."
Yun Xiyu's words seemed to be pleading for Yun Jingchu, but in fact, on the one hand, she was mocking Yun Jingchu for his lack of talent, and on the other hand, she was waiting for Yun Jingchu to make a fool of herself. In her opinion, Yun Jingchu was stupid for fifteen years.
I have never learned any talents in the past years. Even though I am no longer stupid now, I still cannot learn anything in a short period of time.
"So, Miss Yunwu, what talents do you have? Let's show it to the emperor quickly." With the purpose of letting Yun Jingchu lose the election, Wang Yuyan also saw Yun Xiyu's purpose, and naturally wanted to take her up.
That's it. Although they are not on the same page, their goals are the same, so there's no harm in working together.
Yun Xiyu immediately heard Wang Yuyan's purpose and felt happy. Although she didn't like Concubine De, it was undeniable that Concubine De had a very high status in the emperor's heart and in the harem. With her agreement, she wanted to
What you do is highly likely to succeed.
Concubine Dong Xian's eyes flashed slightly but she said nothing. Since these two people had the same true purpose as hers, she would just wait and see what would happen.
