Fate's Little Feral Consort

Chapter 227 Yun Qianxue’s Plot

Inside the Sparrow Pavilion, Yun Qianyu looked at all the young ladies present. Even though the words coming out of their mouths seemed like praises, they all had ulterior motives. Every word they said seemed to have some hidden meaning.

At present, the capital seemed peaceful on the surface, but in fact, it was a treacherous place with different factions fighting for power. This was also the reason why Yun Qianyu did not intend to show her face.

She had no intention of getting involved in all this drama.

Not far from her, Yun Qianxue was glaring at Yun Qianyu and thinking about her plans to deal with her, ‘Today, I will surely ruin Yun Qianyu’s reputation. After this, no one will want to befriend her. Maybe even Xiao Jiuyuan will get so angry that he’ll cancel the marriage. ‘

Thinking about this, Yun Qianxue’s eyes brightened, and she quickly pulled Lu Waner aside and muttered something to her.

Lu Waner nodded repeatedly then indicated to her servant girl to invite Chiang Yuxi over.

After Yun Qianxue spoke with Chiang Yuxi for a while, Chiang Yuxi stood up and clapped her hands. Everyone in the hall instinctively looked over toward her.

With a charming smile, Chiang Yuxi said, “It’s still a long time away before the banquet starts. Since it’s no fun for us to just sit around, how about we play some games?”

Hearing this, everyone’s interest was piqued. Someone asked, “What games?”

“How about we play some elegant games today?”

Chiang Yuxi then continued, “Let’s play the game of passing the flower. One person gets blindfolded and beats the drum ten times. When the drum stops, whoever is holding the flower would have to go pick out a talent to show everyone. There are five kinds of talents in the box: music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and dancing. Whatever talent the person picks out, the person will have to perform it. Even if they are unable to perform, they must finish the performance. No excuses.”

After Chiang Yuxi finished speaking, many people around her applauded. Everyone was interested in the game as it was better than just sitting around.

Seeing that everyone was very interested, Chiang Yuxi continued, “In the end, whoever that wins the greatest cheer from the crowd would be given the title of the most talented woman of Dongli state.”

After Chiang Yuxi said that, many ladies in the room cheered with enthusiasm.

Everyone was happy, and everyone was excited. Some even prayed that they could get the title of the most talented woman in Dongli state. Although it wasn’t a legitimate title, it was still somewhat prestigious to get people’s recognition.

Naturally, when some people became happy about the game, others didn’t.

Yun Qianyu’s face was particularly ugly because it was clearly a ploy planned out by Yun Qianxue. She knew that Yun Qianyu had no such skills and wanted to shame her in front of everyone.

‘Yun Qianxue, just you wait.’

In the main hall, everyone prepared for the games. Outside the door, a servant girl came in and respectfully reported to Chiang Yuxi. Apparently, the crown prince and Li Prince had arrived.

As soon as Chiang Yuxi heard this, she couldn’t help being happy. Immediately, Chiang Yuxi brought two servant girls with her and went out to the courtyard.

Before Chiang Yuxi reached the front gate, she saw a group of men walking from the opposite corridor. The two people in front were none other than the crown prince and Li Prince.

In addition to the crown prince, Li Prince, Huai Prince, Xuan Prince, An Prince and the eldest son of the Yan Bei family, there were also many sons of aristocratic families. There were around twelve of them and they were all young talents of the capital.

Immediately Chiang Yuxi greeted, “Cousin.”
