This day's arithmetic competition was really exciting and exciting.
All the students in Lianchi Academy were beaming with joy and pride.
No one mentioned the failure and sadness of yesterday's four-book competition. At this moment, the girls naturally gathered around Xie Mingxi and the other three, praising each other endlessly.
"Thank you sister," Yin Xiaoxiao sighed sincerely: "I am completely convinced today."
Xie Mingxi pursed her lips and smiled, jokingly saying: "It turns out that the admiration I had before was all just an act!"
Yin Xiaoxiao grinned and said: "That's not true. It's just that after today, my admiration for her is even deeper."
Xiao Yuhan also smiled and took over the conversation: "Today, the three of you have earned face for our Lotus Pond Academy. Look, Master Ji is smiling from ear to ear..."
Wait, why is Master Ji here?
Xiao Yuhan was startled and reflexively stopped talking. He was afraid that his private discussion would displease Master Ji.
Xiao Yuhan really thinks too much!
Master Ji was in such a happy mood that he couldn't care less about such a trivial matter. He stepped forward and patted Xie Mingxi's shoulder affectionately: "Xie Mingxi, you have lived up to my expectations! You showed off your talents today and made a big show.
The glory has also restored the face of Lianchi Academy. Good! Very good!"
The unsmiling Master Ji now had a smile on his face like the spring breeze.
Xie Mingxi smiled and replied: "Thanks to Master for your careful teaching."
Master Ji smiled and said, "It's up to you, Master, to lead you to practice. I have taught my students carefully for many years. You are the only one who is as outstanding as you."
Then, he sighed with some regret: "It's a pity that the Sixth Princess was not selected for the arithmetic competition this time. Otherwise, the results of this arithmetic competition would have been better."
However, although the Sixth Princess is excellent in arithmetic, she has a minor flaw. The Sixth Princess is good at mental arithmetic and never falls on paper. According to the rules of the arithmetic competition, there must be a calculation process. It took two months of training.
It may not be easy either.
Therefore, Xie Mingxi thought about it that day and crossed off the list of the Sixth Princess's self-calculation competition.
Lin Weiwei didn't mind hearing these words, but Li Xiangru's expression darkened.
…
It's like this every time.
No matter how outstanding she is, she is still not as good as Xie Mingxi. With Xie Mingxi here, she, the dignified granddaughter of Li Ge, becomes the green leaf that sets off the flowers!
How could she swallow this suffocating breath?
However, with Sheng Jinyue's precedent, she didn't dare to act in vain...
"Li Xiangru,"
Master Ji looked over coldly, and Li Xiangru quickly came back to his senses, showing a respectful expression: "I wonder what Master Ji has taught me?"
Master Ji smiled gently and said, "You and Lin Weiwei performed very well this time. Don't be complacent. The way to study is to keep your heart and move forward with humility."
Li Xiangru responded respectfully, and when he raised his head, his eyes met with Xie Mingxi's in the air for a moment.
Xie Mingxi seemed to have glimpsed Li Xiangru's unspoken jealousy and twitched the corners of her lips.
Li Xiangru suppressed the jealousy that surged in his heart, and said with a smile: "Tomorrow I will compete in archery. I hope that both the Sixth Princess, Sister Yin and Sister Fang, will get good rankings."
The Sixth Princess nodded slightly: "Don't worry, I will take first place."
…
The girls heard such "arrogant" remarks for several days in a row, but they didn't take it to heart and laughed it off.
Even Xie Mingxi pursed her lips and smiled.
The sixth princess glanced at Xie Mingxi: "Don't you believe that I can take first place?"
In Xie Mingxi's heart, if her "ex-husband" the fourth prince is so powerful, can he definitely win the first place? This time, Xie Mingxi must open his eyes and see what Sheyu Wushuang is!
Xie Mingxi smiled and said perfunctorily: "Of course I believe it."
The Sixth Princess became even more dissatisfied: "You don't really believe me at all, you just deal with me casually."
Yo! I’m really unhappy.
Xie Mingxi was secretly amused and patiently tried to comfort the Sixth Princess: "I'm not trying to deal with Her Royal Highness. It's just that Her Royal Highness the Fourth Prince has ranked first in shooting for two years in a row and has a good reputation. I only hope that Her Highness the Princess can get a good ranking, and she will naturally be the best."
Okay. It doesn’t matter if you’re not the first. In the academy competition, the competition is not about individuals, but the total score.”
"Our goal is to rank first in total points and surpass Songzhu Academy."
"Your Highness, please do not put too much burden on yourself, lest you become too nervous when you go out to shoot."
This finally sounds more pleasant to my ears.
The sixth princess, who was being smoothed over, hummed with satisfaction.
Yin Xiaoxiao and Lin Wei looked at each other, each pursed their lips and smiled.
I have been classmates with the Sixth Princess for half a year. At first, everyone was in awe of her. As time went by, I gradually got to know the Sixth Princess's temperament.
The Sixth Princess doesn't like to gossip and rarely talks to her classmates. However, she never bullies others. She only seems a little more lively in front of her friend Xie Mingxi.
"Xie Mingxi," the sixth princess suddenly opened her mouth and said, "I will take the first place tomorrow, how about you accept my invitation and come with me to the palace as a guest?"
Xie Mingxi was startled and looked over.
There was a glimmer of hope in the eyes of the Sixth Princess.
All the girls looked over with envy. What an honor it was to be able to accompany the Sixth Princess to the palace as a guest! What else does Xie Mingxi have to hesitate? Hurry up and accept it!
Xie Mingxi's heart softened and she nodded in agreement: "Okay."
Lin Wei smiled and joked: "What if Her Royal Highness loses and doesn't take first place? What will be the lottery?"
The sixth princess said seriously: "If I lose, I will follow Xie Mingxi to the Xie Mansion as a guest for one day."
Xie Mingxi: "..."
…
The sixth princess, who successfully made the "bet", returned to the palace in a carriage in a happy mood.
Unfortunately, I met the third prince, fourth prince and fifth prince again outside the palace gate.
The fifth prince had already escaped from the "shadow" of being seventh in arithmetic, and grinned at the sixth princess: "Sixth sister."
The Sixth Princess looked calm and called out one by one: "Brother Three Emperors, Brother Four Emperors, Brother Five Emperors."
Six months ago, the Sixth Princess might not have opened her mouth when she met her three brothers. However, in the past six months, the Sixth Princess' subtle "little changes" have been very successful.
The original gloomy silence had turned into a cold voice without anyone noticing. Everyone thought it was a good thing that the Sixth Princess was willing to speak, and no one suspected that the Sixth Princess had changed into a different person.
"Sixth sister, are you confident in the archery competition tomorrow?" The third prince asked with a gentle smile. He glanced at the cold and arrogant fourth prince calmly: "Fourth prince, you have to be merciful tomorrow and don't bully Sixth Sister.
That’s it.”
The fourth prince responded indifferently: "We will try our best in the competition, so how can we say that we are bullying?"
The Sixth Princess nodded in agreement: "What the Fourth Emperor said makes sense. I will try my best. If I accidentally defeat the Fourth Emperor, please don't feel too embarrassed."
Fourth Prince: "..."
The third prince and the fifth prince: "..." (To be continued)
