Chapter 282 Second Round



The poetry reading ended, the goddess stopped moving for a while, and the palace maids on the scene began to serve dishes one after another.

Ye Xin hardly touched the dishes on the table in front of her until the second round of dishes came up. She saw a dish similar to hot pot chicken on the table and then she reluctantly ate a little.

vomit!

It’s hard to say, it’s still not as delicious as the hot pot chicken.

Ye Xin put down her chopsticks with a gloomy expression on her face.

Emperor Wenkang saw that the goddess didn't seem to like the delicacies on the table, so he ordered someone to replace them.

When the steward of the imperial kitchen heard this, he almost swung his shovel to produce sparks.

If he were there, he would rush up to ask the goddess what she likes to eat.

But he could only think about it. After the third round of delicacies were served, he silently picked up the kitchen knife and started making snacks.

He always felt that after today, his reputation as the best chef in the world would be shattered.

The atmosphere in the hall fell into awkwardness again, and the slightly lively atmosphere disappeared again.

Yu Churan received Emperor Wen Kang's pleading gaze and whispered to Ye Xin, "Sir, there is an opera troupe in the Imperial Garden. Do you want them to come over and sing a song?"

Ye Xin raised her eyelids. Singing? Is there any other choice?

She shook her head, not interested in Yu Churan's proposal.

Yu Churan frowned slightly, thinking rapidly about what new things could come out.

The four arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, otherwise what else can they compete in?

Yu Churan's thoughts just turned over in his mind, and he quickly came up with a solution.

"Sir, almost all the girls here can sing and dance well. Would you like to see their style?"

Dancing again, Ye Xin instinctively wanted to refuse, but when the words were about to come out of her mouth, she suddenly stopped.

Due to the limitations of this era, girls seem to have few talents to show off except these things.

At the poetry writing competition just now, even though so many people signed up, a large number of girls still did not stand up.

If she wants these girls to show themselves, then she can't just focus on cultural competition.

Although the girls won the first round just now, Ye Xin could see that if there were no restrictions on the poems, it would be hard to say who would win or lose.

Thinking of this, she finally had a clue to what was bothering her.

"Is there a lake in the palace?" Ye Xin looked sideways at Yu Churan, with excitement in his eyes as if he was eager to try.

Yu Churan's mouth was faster than his brain, and he quickly blurted out: "My Lord, there is a large lake in the Imperial Garden."

"Okay, let's continue somewhere else."

Ye Xin took a glass of wine, snapped his fingers, and disappeared with everyone.

Before the group of people could understand what the goddess meant, they suddenly saw a blur in front of their eyes, and they and the table were transported from Weiyang Palace to the Imperial Garden.

In the garden, a refreshing fragrance filled the air, and countless butterflies circled around them, as if they were very curious about where these people came from.

"Boom~"

Several people lost their grip on the wine glasses and they dropped them to the ground with a clang.

What just happened...

Ye Xin looked around at these people's faces and was very satisfied with his masterpiece.

"Our second match today will be on the lake in the Imperial Garden."

She threw a wooden model towards the lake in front of her, and then released a stream of spiritual power.

The model froze above the lake. After being activated by spiritual power, it changed from a palm-sized shape into a fenced arena.

Everyone was stunned. The goddess displayed her magic in front of them one after another. They were really scared to the point of being speechless.

"The second competition is up to you. There are no restrictions on anyone or anything. You can show off what you are good at."

"I will select two winners based on your performance, and the rewards will remain the same as before."

Ye Dakuan once again hung the light curtain in the sky, completely ignoring the group of people below who were about to go crazy after hearing the rules.

Two...two people.

Isn’t the goddess really the boy who gave away money and came down to earth?

He gave out two elixirs at once, which made them jealous.

There is no limit to anything, as long as it is something you are good at, you can go.

Now, all the ministers signed up enthusiastically.

Even Emperor Wen Kang was the same. He endured it again and again and almost reported his own name.

But when he looked at the fiery eyes below, he couldn't bring himself to sign up.

At this moment, Emperor Wenkang regretted very much why he was the emperor.

The elixir was right before his eyes, but he had no way to deal with it.

The depressed Emperor Wen Kang became completely depressed, which made Lin Jiayan smile for the nth time.

I never thought that even an emperor who controls the whole world would be helpless sometimes.

She had already eaten the elixir.

.........

Only after the last person said his name did the light curtain in the sky stop recording.

Ye Xin looked at the hundreds of names on the screen and suddenly remembered that he had not mentioned the rules.

With so many people involved, if there were no time limit, who knows how long it would take.

"It is now the hour of Wei. You can perform individually or in groups, but each person's performance should not exceed half a cup of tea. Now, you can discuss freely. We will officially begin after one stick of incense."

As soon as the goddess finished speaking, the place became lively.

The ministers who had signed up gathered together and discussed what they should prepare.

The female relatives who were familiar with the couple also gathered together to give advice to their daughters.

Lin Jinxia and Tong Yun did not sign up, so Yu Churan called them over to help.

Tong Yun was confused and walked to Yu Churan carefully, holding up her skirt. "Your Highness, how can I help you?"

Yu Churan led them to several empty tables and said, "Miss Tong, the Goddess wants me to record some of the outstanding girls, but I have to listen to the Goddess' instructions at all times, so I can only ask you and your sister for help."

"So that's how it is. Princess, there's no need to be so polite. It's Tong Yun's honor to be able to help the goddess."

Tong Yun couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth. After taking the magic pill, she was no longer a sickly person. Such a small matter could naturally be easily accomplished by her.

Is this the reason?

Lin Jinxia looked at Yu Churan who was picking his fingers with complicated eyes.

Whenever my sister tells a lie, she will pick her fingers. Is it just as simple as recording it?

Yu Churan blushed and silently put his hands into his sleeves.

"Xia Xia, please stop watching. The competition is about to begin. We must pay attention, especially to those who have been praised by the goddess."

"I understand, my 'good' sister."

Lin Jinxia emphasized the word "good", which made Yu Churan feel gnashing of teeth.

The hairs on her back suddenly stood up and she quickly lowered her head to avoid Lin Jinxia's sight.

Sister, please don’t ask me anymore. I can’t hold it in any longer if you ask me again.

The Queen Mother and the Empress gathered together, looking happily at the group of girls with bright eyes below.

The goddess just talked to them and asked them to help judge who will win the grand prize in the end.

Both of them were accustomed to this kind of situation and were very familiar with it, so they responded immediately.
