If you're looking for His Highness on the 50th, then I must excuse myself and take my leave.
Li Xiaorui nodded indifferently.
Zhou Qi saw that Li Mu was about to leave, and he wondered what to do. If Li Mu left, who would he pledge his loyalty to? So he called Li Mu back.
Sister Li Mu, where are you going?
Li Mu was speechless and could only turn around to look at Zhou Qi.
Another one?
It's nothing. I just wanted to apologize to Your Highness and Sister Li Mu separately. I acted impulsively at the time.
Are you trying to get attention?
ah?
Are you trying to get noticed?
Li Mu repeated it again.
Miss Li, what do you mean by that?
Zhou Qi was furious.
What's the meaning?
Only you know what it means.
See if any of the other candidates dare to try and make their presence known to the princess, just like you.
Zhou Qi's eyes darted around after hearing Li Mu's words.
Your Highness, I wasn't trying to get attention; I just wanted to apologize, which is why I was so impolite.
Miss Li's statement is not without merit; you don't need to apologize privately.
Li Xiaorui glanced at Li Mu as she spoke.
Seeing this, Zhou Qi quickly said something.
Your Highness, Miss Li's sister and I are best friends. Miss Li probably doesn't like her sister, and by extension, she doesn't like me either. Your Highness, please don't blame Sister Li Mu.
Li Xiaorui found Zhou Qi's words somewhat unbelievable.
Li Mu sneered upon hearing this.
Zhou Qi, your tea ceremony must be quite good.
Sister Li Mu, you flatter me. I have been interested in tea ceremony since I was a child, and I will definitely stand out when I perform tea art.
Oh, I think you misunderstood. What I actually wanted to say was that you truly expressed yourself perfectly, just like the exhilarating experience of drinking tea.
Ignoring Zhou Qi's darkening expression, Li Mu turned to Li Xiaorui and spoke.
Your Highness, I am a little tired.
Okay, Miss Li, go back and rest.
Li Mu nodded and turned to leave.
Li Xiaorui also disappeared into the crowd under the protection of armored soldiers.
When Zhou Qi realized that Li Mu and Li Xiaorui had disappeared, she stomped her feet in anger.
Miss, we've investigated everyone's background and found that one person might be your competitor.
Number twelve.
Number twelve?
Who is she?
The descendants of the Zhu family have lived in anonymity for decades.
Hmph, that's going to be interesting.
The afternoon continued with books and paintings.
Zhou Qi has a great advantage in calligraphy and painting. China has a long history. In ancient times, the children of kings and generals were required to learn the Six Arts of a Gentleman and the Eight Elegances of Women.
To this day, only the children of imperial families, aristocratic families, clans, and wealthy families are required to learn these things.
The Zhou family had once been glorious, so even if Zhou Qi's knowledge of the Eight Arts was only superficial, it was enough to deal with those who took a three-month crash course in the Eight Arts.
The grand selection of the crown prince's consorts has finally reached the final scoring stage.
Over the course of two days, all the candidates have showcased their abilities, and now it's time to announce their rankings.
Second place: No. 50; First place: No. 12.
Wait a minute, I disagree.
You disagree? Why?
Li Mu asked without changing his expression.
Zhou Qi pointed confidently at number twelve and said.
This number twelve is a fish that slipped through the net of the Zhu family. He is not qualified to participate in the Crown Prince's selection of consorts, and he is even less worthy of marrying into the imperial family.
The Zhu family's past is no longer a matter of whether they are a good match or not; everyone has the right to participate.
Li Xiaorui said calmly.
Li Xiaorui looked at Zhou Qi and saw a terrifyingly cold look in his eyes.
Li Xiaorui was very fortunate that Zhou Qi dared to say such things, especially since the entire selection ceremony for the crown prince's consort was recorded.
Fortunately, I was quick-witted; otherwise, if I had answered such a question carelessly and said something wrong, it would have caused quite a stir once it got out.
Or it might be posted online by someone with ulterior motives, and people in other countries would definitely think that the imperial family lacks vision.
Originally, Li Xiaorui was indifferent to Zhou Qi, but after Zhou Qi said those words, Li Xiaorui felt disgusted with him and wished she could have him arrested and beaten to death.
The selection of the crown prince's consort is a grand event held every three years, each session lasting two days. The entire event is recorded and edited before being released to the public.
Today is the first day after the selection of the imperial concubines, and the staff released the results very efficiently on the first evening.
here we go!
here we go!
Wow, I've finally waited for you! I'm so glad I didn't give up.
I'm so excited! This is a once-every-three-years event, and I can finally watch it!
Wow, so many beautiful women! Each one has a slender figure and a curvy figure.
Why am I not the crown prince? If I were the crown prince, I could pick any beautiful woman I wanted, right?
That's incredibly disrespectful! Watch your words.
Oh my god, oh my god, it didn't even make its appearance?
Princess.
Your Highness.
Your Highness.
Miss Li Mu, this is Miss Li.
Miss Li is as beautiful as ever.
I'm so happy, Her Highness the Princess is back!
Miss Li has such a strong presence.
Her Highness the Princess is no weakling either, she is a princess after all.
Princess +1
Miss Li +11

Ahhhhhh
Miss Li's voice is so beautiful.
Yes, yes, it's very distinctive.
It sounds wonderful.
Wow, look at the last one of the five remaining contestants, he looks so familiar.
Zhou Qi, that's Zhou Qi.
That model?
Yes, yes, yes, she's been on quite a few variety shows.
I know, the first season of the most popular "I Am a Star" reality show was so good! It featured celebrities like Miss Li, Actor Ji, and Actress Su. I was so moved, the guest lineup for the first season of "I Am a Star" was amazing.
