Chapter 306: Fighting to Become the Crown Princess



Jiang Lianhan immediately walked out, and unlike other daughters of officials, she did not bow delicately, but just clasped her fists and said, "Your Majesty, Lianhan only knows how to sword dance. Can you allow Lianhan to borrow my father's sword?"

As soon as she said this, Shui Yao noticed that General Jiang was the only general in the court who could wear a sword to the banquet, which showed that his status and position were not ordinary. She just didn't understand why Jiang Lianhan was placed in such a last position.

"Lianhan, you!" General Jiang said angrily.

"Okay, okay, General Jiang, your daughter looks like you to me. Come on, give her the sword and let her use it. Let me see how she dances with the sword!"

Emperor Han continued to speak with a smile. The way he smiled was really similar to Leng Yichen, except that he was not as evil as Leng Yichen!

Jiang Lianhan stepped forward, took the sword from General Jiang, and said loudly, "Thank you, father! Don't worry, father!"

General Jiang shook his head, sat back in his original position, and looked at Jiang Lianhan worriedly, but he did not expect that Jiang Lianhan was indeed a very good martial artist. She danced the sword with great vigor, had a slender waist, and looked very charming like a girl. She was really worth seeing.

But compared with Wen Xixue's piano skills, it is not worthy of being worthy of being mentioned in a high-class hall after all.

"Miss Jiang, look, your illegitimate sister has stolen the limelight from your husband!" The woman in yellow suddenly said to the calm woman.

Shui Yao then realized that Jiang Lianhan was actually General Jiang's illegitimate son. No wonder he was arranged so far back.

The calm woman just smiled faintly, her eyes always fixed on Leng Yichen, it seemed that she had a special liking for Leng Yichen.

Jiang Lianhan's performance attracted numerous praises. The Cold Emperor nodded and whispered something to the Queen. In the end, he actually rewarded

Jiang Lianhan's pair of jade pendants made her little face smile brightly.

After Jiang Lianhan, other women came out to perform, but they were all named by the Empress and Concubine Mei. The two seemed to be competing secretly, and the women whose names were named were naturally in the same mind as them, so the open and secret struggles became even more intense.

"Yawn!" Shui Yao leaned against the table. She had been traveling all night and had not had much rest. Moreover, these women were either playing the piano or painting. Finally, a dancer came up, but the music was soft, which made her very sleepy.

Leng Yichen seemed to sense Shui Yao's weariness, and suddenly curled his lips slightly, and stood up, "It seems that they have all performed, but the lady hiding in the back is very bored, why don't you come out and perform?"

As soon as Leng Yichen said this, everyone turned their eyes to Shui Yao, but there were too many women here and they really didn't know who Leng Yichen was talking about.

Shui Yao squinted her eyes lazily. She knew clearly that Leng Yichen was calling her, but she was too tired to move. Besides, she came to collect debts, not to sell her smiles.

Back in Nanyue, she received 100,000 taels of silver for a song and dance. Only a fool would perform for them for nothing!

Seeing that Shui Yao didn't move, Leng Yichen's smile in her beautiful eyes became even more intense. He stood up and walked towards Shui Yao.

The calm woman suddenly became nervous because she was in the three rows in front of Shui Yao and had never performed before. So she thought that the person Leng Yichen was talking about was her, but she was not sure.

So she just held the corner of her clothes tightly, looking at the man who was slowly walking towards her with a smile in her eyes.

Turn your head away and pretend you didn't see it. Who would knock on the table impatiently, eagerly waiting for this boring

The ceremony quickly ended.

When Leng Yichen was about to walk up to the calm woman, she seemed to have confirmed that the person was her.

So she stood up to greet him, but unexpectedly Leng Yichen actually walked straight past her. The woman stood there in a daze, which immediately caused a burst of laughter from the women.

The calm woman's face suddenly turned pale. She turned back coldly and looked behind her, and saw Leng Yichen standing in front of the woman in red behind her.

Shui Yao didn't look at him, and lay lazily on the table as usual, hoping that Leng Yichen would give up. However, she didn't expect that Leng Yichen had no airs of a prince at all. He bent down and looked at her, "Miss, since you feel bored, why don't you come out and perform, so that this prince can witness your talent!"

Shui Yao saw that she couldn't avoid it anymore, so she slowly swept her eyes across the jealous gazes of those women. Although her gazes were neither cold nor harsh, they held a kind of ruthless and domineering aura, causing those jealous women to quickly look away and not dare to look directly at her.

Wen Xixue seemed to have noticed Shui Yao's unusual temperament and looked over from a distance.

Shui Yao finally turned her gaze to Leng Yichen's face and said lazily, "Is your heart okay? Aren't you afraid of being shocked?"

Her voice was not loud, but because everyone's eyes were looking there at the moment, everyone present heard her words.

Everyone looked at each other and wondered whose daughter this was. She spoke so arrogantly. They had never seen any talent that could shock them!

Leng Yichen smiled evilly, "Miss, do you also want to shave off my hair and make me bald? But it's winter now, please be merciful!"

Shuiyao knew that he was bringing up the past again.

Once in Nanyue's hall, Jiang Yan wanted to see her make a fool of herself, but she blackmailed him for 100,000 taels and shaved his head bald. But today she came to collect the debt.

Now the one who owes the money is the master, so she naturally won't offend Leng Yichen, so she smiled faintly and blinked her eyes, "Prince Leng, you are too suspicious. You are in a high position and you are a handsome man. How can I bear to take away your glory!"

The whole audience was in an uproar again. Shui Yao's obviously teasing words caused all the ministers to frown. Although the Cold Emperor was still smiling and didn't say anything, the Cold Queen couldn't hold it anymore, "Chen'er, do you know this lady?"

"I don't know her, but Queen, I think you have a weak spleen and stomach, which is a symptom of physical weakness. Are you always having trouble sleeping and eating, and feeling restless and irritable?"

Shui Yao saw that she couldn't avoid what happened today, so she walked out confidently, bowed and greeted.

The Queen was stunned for a moment, then nodded immediately, "How did you know?"

"I'm a miracle doctor, so I know. And the Queen must have taken a lot of tonics to replenish her body, right? But little did she know that the more tonics she took, the weaker her body became!"

Shui Yao chuckled and accurately described the symptoms of the cold. She was not trying to please him, but thinking of the purpose of her visit, it was naturally most important to establish a good relationship.

But she didn't know that by doing this, she seemed like she was trying to please the Queen and compete for the position of Crown Princess. She was already extremely beautiful, and with some knowledge of medicine, she would undoubtedly become the most unforgettable woman tonight!

"Yes, yes, is there any way to cure it?" Queen Han asked anxiously. It was because of this disease that her face looked pale all day long. No matter how much rouge she put on, she couldn't hide the fatigue in her eyes.

Casual looks make you look a little old!

"Yes, I can. I'll prescribe a prescription for the Queen. I guarantee that after you take four doses of the medicine, you'll eat well, sleep well, and have a rosy complexion like a young girl!"

Shui Yao's words immediately made Queen Han burst into laughter. Her eyes were full of love for Shui Yao. She wondered whose family this girl was from. If she was from a wealthy family, then she would stay in the palace, even if she was not the Crown Princess, then she could be a concubine!

Leng Yichen glanced at Shui Yao indifferently, his beautiful eyes seemed to be thinking about something. He returned to his seat and watched Shui Yao's struggle with interest.

"Hmph, what's the point of just talking? Why don't you show us some talent!" Jiang Lianhan was a straightforward person and had already started shouting. When she shouted, the women who felt that their limelight was stolen all agreed.

For a moment, the whole hall was filled with the chattering sounds of women. Only Wen Xixue secretly glanced at Leng Yichen, and happened to see the man's interested look. The man's enchanting look made her heart move. She bit her lip, and she already had the result in her mind.

Shui Yao felt really sad for them. So many women were guarding these two men, fighting for the two men, what was the point? It was not as satisfying as killing people to make money!

"What? You don't dare?" Jiang Lianhan shouted loudly, but she didn't know that everyone regarded her as the one who stood out.

"Why not? Am I afraid of you, the one who sticks out?" Shui Yao sneered. Her words made Jiang Lianhan realize something and he immediately shut up.

Queen Han frowned slightly and whispered to Emperor Han, "Although Lianhan is straightforward and cute, she is too naive and impulsive. I'm afraid she will just be a victim after entering the palace. Forget it, let's not make her a concubine!"
