Chapter 76 Stunning the Audience
As if he had noticed something, Lu Huaijin looked at Yun Wanye deeply, and a hint of darkness quickly flashed across his eyes.
"Let's go."
Several people walked towards the bridge, Lu Huaijin was in the front, followed by Mo Zhaozhao and Yun Wanyao, and Yun Wanye walked at the end while Yun Wanning, who was muttering to herself, was holding her arms.
On the way, the atmosphere was a bit weird. Mo Zhaozhao always felt that the person behind her was staring at her with dark eyes.
"I wonder if my cousin has arrived yet."
She turned her head to look at Yun Wanyao, trying to distract herself.
Yun Wanyao shook her head and said, "They probably haven't arrived yet. When I got off the car just now, I didn't see the Jiang family's carriage."
"That cousin is really late. Let's go faster and save a seat for her when we get there."
"Don't worry, Princess. With Atang's status and reputation, does she still need us to help her take it?"
Mo Zhaozhao: “…”
She glanced at Yun Wanyao with resentment and sighed helplessly in her heart, "Silly Yao, can't you see at all that I am deliberately looking for topics to chat with you?"
When we arrived at the pavilion in the center of the waterside pavilion, it was already full of guests.
The elegant and handsome gentlemen and the graceful and elegant ladies gathered in groups of three or five.
Seeing Mo Zhaozhao, everyone came forward to pay their respects.
In the daily life of the Dawu Kingdom, the bowing ceremony was the main one, and the kowtow ceremony was rarely seen.
In public, Mo Zhaozhao resumed her princess demeanor, put on airs, and waived all the formalities in an elegant and noble manner.
[Wow, this is indeed a novel world, the overall appearance is so high. 】
[Among so many people, not a single one is ugly. Even the nameless passers-by are all good-looking in their own way. ]
Yun Wanning quickly scanned everyone with her eyes and found that these passers-by, some handsome men and some pretty women, all had very distinctive looks and she was not face-blind at all.
Even their skin and figure are better than each other.
Yun Wanyao: “…”
Yun Wanye: “…”
What do you mean no name? Everyone here has their own name and surname, okay?
Moreover, each of them came from a well-known noble family, so how could they be nameless passers-by? [Also, this waterside pavilion is also wonderfully built. ]
[There are actually spaces outside on both sides for planting seasonal flowers and trees. Flowers will bloom in every season, which is simply beautiful. ]
Soon, Yun Wanning's attention was attracted by the plum blossoms blooming outside the water pavilion.
Seeing how much she liked it, Yun Wanye carried her a few steps to the nearest Jade Butterfly Plum Blossom. Then, he leaned lazily on the red railing, listening nonchalantly to her happy voice, his eyes falling on the girl not far away.
"Ayao, let's sit here."
Mo Zhaozhao pulled Yun Wanyao and occupied the best seat in a dignified manner.
The venue for the winter banquet was set up yesterday.
White jade tables were placed around, and the gentlemen and ladies could choose their seats. In the middle was the main banquet table.
Ever since the late Empress Dowager developed health problems, the winter banquet has been hosted by the old chief academic officer of the Imperial College and several world-renowned literary giants.
The young men and ladies who were going to attend the banquet were still arriving one after another.
Suddenly, the crowd began to get restless.
"Look, it's Jiang Zitang, the most talented lady in our Dawu country. The talented lady Jiang is here."
"Oh, you only saw the talented lady Jiang, didn't you see Mr. Xie beside her? Mr. Xie has always been a secluded person, but he never missed the winter banquet. I guess it must be because of the talented lady Jiang."
"That's right. Miss Jiang and Mr. Xie have been friends since childhood and are in love with each other. I think good things are about to happen."
“…”
Hearing the noise, Mo Zhaozhao and Yun Wanyao looked towards the bridgehead and saw Jiang Zitang, wearing a smoky purple dress, walking side by side with a tall and handsome man in black clothes.
The man had a cold look on his face, and his whole body gave off a distant feeling that kept strangers away.
"Ayao, it's my cousin and Mr. Xie."
Mo Zhaozhao said something to Yun Wanyao, then stood up and waved vigorously to Jiang Zitang.
"Cousin, here."
Jiang Zitang had already seen the two of them. After hearing Mo Zhaozhao's words, he quickened his pace and walked towards them.
"Princess, Ayao."
She greeted them with a smile.
The man next to her bowed to Mo Zhaozhao very coldly without saying a word the whole time. Then, he stood aside with an expressionless face.
As for Yun Wanyao, he didn't even bother to look at her.
Mo Zhaozhao and Yun Wanyao had long been accustomed to this man's indifference, and no one took his attitude seriously, but Jiang Zitang was embarrassed and felt a little guilty.
She reached out and tugged at Xie Xuanyong's sleeve, and said helplessly, "Ayong, what about Ayao?"
Seeing this, Yun Wanyao quickly waved her hands and said very tactfully, "It's okay, Atang, I don't mind."
Her friend is just Atang, not Atang's man. As long as that man is nice to Atang, he doesn't need to take her seriously at all.
Jiang Zitang: “…”
'hiss……'
Suddenly, the noisy place became quiet, and the sound of people gasping for air could be heard one after another.
Several people were suspicious and turned their heads to look, only to see a white figure appear at the bridge head.
The woman was wearing a moon-colored long skirt with a snow-white fox fur coat on the outside. Her figure was light and graceful, and she moved like a startled wild goose. From a distance, she looked like a fairy from the nine heavens who had descended to the mortal world. Her beauty was shocking.
Countless people were dumbfounded, staring at the scene in a daze.
[Oh, I was wondering why the atmosphere changed so suddenly, it turns out the heroine is here. ]
[Tsk tsk tsk, this white is indeed the standard outfit for time-traveling heroines. Everyone has to wear one, and it’s fine if they just wear it, but they also have to outshine the colorful outfits of the noble ladies.]
[Uh uh uh, what I want to say is that the heroine is indeed beautiful, but my sister, the princess, and Jiang Zitang are all pretty good. Do these people have to have such exaggerated expressions? ]
[Oh, I almost forgot, these people are just passers-by serving the plot, their appearance is just to set the atmosphere. ]
[If they weren't so exaggerated, how would people know how beautiful the heroine is? Look, everyone is stunned immediately, isn't the feeling created immediately? ]
【……】
Yun Wanye: “…”
He turned his head to look at the girl not far away and sneered in his heart with disdain.
My sister's opinion makes a lot of sense.
The heroine is beautiful, but she is far from being beautiful enough to outshine all the noble ladies. However, these noble gentlemen all act as if they have never seen a woman before. It is hard not to suspect that they are being controlled by the plot.
"Then, that's Su Qianxue?"
“It seems so…”
"When did that idiot Su Qianxue become so pretty?"
"She has always been pretty, but she is too stupid and always does stupid things. She has no ladylike temperament at all, which seriously lowers her beauty, right?"
"What you said makes sense, but why is she suddenly different today? I feel like she's a different person compared to before."
"I don't know. Should I say it or not? Su Qianxue looks really attractive when she dresses up. It makes my heart flutter..."
"Tsk, what beauty wouldn't make your heart flutter when you see it?"
After a while, the nobles came to their senses and whispered to each other, talking about Su Qianxue.
The ladies, on the other hand, gritted their teeth in shock and jealousy.
No one had expected that the notorious Su Qianxue would look so beautiful after dressing up. As soon as she appeared, she attracted everyone's attention and stole the limelight from all the noble ladies.
[Beep, friendly reminder, congratulations to the heroine for successfully achieving her first achievement. She is the most beautiful girl in the audience. She has successfully blinded everyone's eyes and grabbed everyone's attention. ]
[Next, it’s time to unlock the second achievement, which is amazing talent and stunning skills. ]
[Achievement content: step on the first talented woman, take the first talented woman's crown, and successfully fight a beautiful turnaround. ]
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
[Achievement Reward: Gain a large number of fanatical pursuers, and your reputation will spread far and wide. ]
Yun Wanning, who was extremely bored, acted as the plot system master and explained it to everyone online. However, no one could hear it except Yun Wanye and Yun Wanyao.
Yun Wanyao was too far away and didn't hear anything.
"Tsk, so pretentious!"
Mo Zhaozhao sneered disdainfully, and the contempt in his eyes became even stronger.
The noble ladies of the Dawu Kingdom particularly loved bright colors. Everyone was dressed dazzlingly, but that annoying woman ran out wearing only white.
Among the colorful world, the white one looks like a lotus emerging from water, which is particularly unique.
What a scheming person.
However, this white color does look ethereal and beautiful, but if someone who doesn't know the situation sees it, they might think that there is a funeral in the Taiwei Mansion.
Yun Wanyao's heart began to beat wildly and she couldn't help but feel nervous.
The scenes before my eyes are exactly the same as what I have seen in my little sister’s mind.
When the heroine appeared, she stunned everyone with her beauty. Then, it was her two awe-inspiring poems that came next.
Even though Big Brother and Yun Wanye had assured them that the matter had been arranged and would never allow the heroine to succeed in the limelight, Yun Wanyao couldn't help but feel uneasy.
"Princess, please behave yourself today and don't provoke her, okay?"
She turned her head to look at Mo Zhaozhao, reached out and grabbed Mo Zhaozhao's hand, and warned him seriously.
Looking at her expression, Mo Zhaozhao was slightly stunned. After coming to his senses, he looked at her in confusion.
"Ayao, you've been acting strange lately. I noticed that you seem to be very afraid of her all of a sudden. Why? Is she scary? Why do you look like this every time I see her these few times?"
"Alas, Princess, you don't understand~"
Yun Wanyao shook her head. She had a lot to say but couldn't say it out loud. She felt very depressed.
This is the heroine of this world.
In my little sister's words, she is a girl of luck. Moreover, she comes from the outside world and knows many things about this world. She is as powerful as my little sister. More importantly, she is the destined nemesis of their Yun family. How can she not be afraid?
"Then tell me about it. If I don't understand, you tell me, then I will understand, right?"
Mo Zhaozhao became interested, took her hand and asked in a low voice.
Yun Wanyao: “…”
Can’t say, can’t say, absolutely can’t say!!! On the bridge.
Taking in the reactions of everyone present, a hint of coldness quickly flashed across Su Qianxue's beautiful eyes, and she sneered in disdain in her heart.
The effect is no worse than she expected.
She only made a slight move, but she was able to amaze all those who had despised, scorned and looked down on her in the past. Today, she must completely remove the labels of fool and idiot from her and change everyone's view of her.
The Winter Banquet was truly a great opportunity given to her by God, and she would definitely seize it.
From now on, when these people mention her, they can only use admiration, praise, obsession and madness.
She straightened her back, held her chin high, walked slowly to the center of the field, found a place to sit quietly, and although she didn't look around, she could still sense that countless burning and jealous eyes were falling on her.
Ha!!! Su Qianxue was in a better mood, her eyes narrowed slightly, and a faint smile hung on the corners of her lips.
After a moment, she turned her head and looked at Mo Zhaozhao with a smile.
Last time at the Ningguo Mansion, her plan failed for some reason. This stupid princess somehow managed to escape the disaster and ended up getting her into trouble. But it didn't matter. This time, she would get it all back.
I heard that the most talented woman is the cousin of the unruly princess, and the unruly princess cares about this cousin very much.
Very well, this time, she will have to sacrifice this number one talent.
"Ayao, don't you see that the damn woman is provoking me? Please try to persuade me. I can't help but rush up and slap her."
If it were in the past, Mo Zhaozhao would definitely not tolerate this. If someone dared to provoke her, she would stand up and teach that person a lesson without saying a word.
But now, after experiencing the Ningguo Mansion drowning incident, the last assassination attempt, and Yun Wanyao's repeated warnings, she no longer dared to be so impulsive.
There must be something evil about this woman, otherwise, she wouldn't have known her plan during the full moon banquet for the little sister of the Ningguo Mansion, and she wouldn't have been waiting there in advance to set her up with herself.
Also, A-Yao would not have warned her so seriously and repeatedly not to mess with this woman.
"My dear princess, why don't you just stop looking at her? Turn your head and look at me."
Hearing Mo Zhaozhao's words, Yun Wanyao suddenly became anxious and quickly grabbed her shoulders and turned half of her body.
Things have been complicated enough today, Princess, please don't create any more trouble.
"You have to think about it carefully. She is deliberately provoking you. She has just gained the attention of the whole audience and has stolen the limelight. I don't know how many noblemen are obsessed with her beauty."
"If you teach her a lesson now, won't that cause dissatisfaction among everyone?"
"Everyone will accuse you of being arrogant and domineering, using your power to bully others, and humiliating the noble lady. Maybe you will even go to the emperor to complain. If that happens, then her goal will be achieved."
What's more important is that this is a girl of luck. Even if the princess tries to teach her a lesson, she may not succeed. Instead, there is a high possibility that she will be backfired and suffer in the end.
Mo Zhaozhao: “…”
"I think what A Yao said makes sense, I will endure it!!!"
Seeing that Mo Zhaozhao did not take any action and actually endured it, Su Qianxue looked away with boredom and curled her lips in disdain.
Tsk, this princess is not very courageous. She is so cowardly now. It's really boring.
[Oh, why haven't the chief priests come yet? Oh, yes, the male protagonist hasn't come yet either. ]
[The book says that the emperor and the male protagonist will come today. ]
[In addition, General Lin, the commander of the Imperial City Guard, and Gu Heng will also be here. These two are very loyal suitors of the heroine.]
【……】
Yun Wanye: “…”
The Emperor will come too? When did the Emperor have so much free time to attend such a banquet? Could it be that the Emperor has recovered recently, so he has also been tempted to take concubines, and wants to come and see these unmarried ladies in private?
