Chapter 090: Variables
Chunmanyuan was actually painted by Chu Xinyu. Fu Yinghua was very shocked and thought she had heard it wrong. How could this happen? Wasn’t she eliminated in her previous life?
When the general manager read Chu Xinyu's name, her eyes immediately looked in her direction. She did not see a trace of surprise on her face, but instead accepted it calmly. Even she might not be able to do this calmness.
Her thoughts before were indeed correct. If her rebirth changes other people's lives, her trouble will be great, and the woman in front of her will be her trouble!
Fu Yinghua stared at Chu Xinyu with a gloomy look. This woman is a variable that cannot be touched and must not be kept!
At this moment, it was not only Fu Ying-hwa who regarded Chu Xinyu as a trouble, but Princess Jing'an and Lin Huan were simply envious and jealous, and even held suspicion whether the referee made a mistake.
Chu Jiating and Yang Lianxin were so jealous that they almost broke their nails. How could this painting be painted by Chu Xinyu? Although she was involved in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she was not able to show off her skills. How could she draw such a vivid painting? Could it be that she was brought to the body by a ghost and suddenly knew magic and turned the painting out?
I saw the eyes of several princes falling on her, but she seemed to have not felt it, standing beside Princess Chu, accepting all kinds of gazes openly. At this moment, I wanted to be her.
Some people are frustrated, others are proud.
Chu Xinyu's paintings have the most hydrangeas, and the happiest ones are Yang Qianjun, An Qilan and others. They have no mistakes in their eyes. Chu Xinyu is a pearl covered in dust. Over time, she will eventually be discovered and then shine.
Isn’t this pearl discovered now?
"Oh my God, this girl has become the future wife of the Marquis of Peking." Yang Qianjun was so excited that she spoke quickly for a moment and said everything in her heart, which made the girls who admire Lin Chenyao feel sad.
Even Chu Xinyu could paint such an excellent painting. If they had known that Lin Chenyao would make such a request, they would have been defeated with all their might. They would have been no worse than Chunman Garden, but they would have been regretted too late.
The girls present had their own thoughts. King Jin narrowed his eyes and said to King Qin with a lazy and half-smiling look: "I really didn't expect that cousin Yu had such a skill. Her painting skills are no worse than Miss Fu Er. Why are there rumors in the capital that she is a candid? Look, only one of the other three girls in the Hou Mansion of Zhongyi entered the top ten. It seems that the rumors are really not believed."
A beautiful woman like her will inevitably attract the same kind of jealousy, and it may be slapped by others. If it were her who pointed their acupoints that night, this woman would be really hidden. If she could tame such a woman and make her willing to do things for herself, it would be very satisfying.
The King of Qin sneered and said, "It's true that I haven't seen her for more than two years. This girl didn't know where she learned this mastery. Perhaps half of her body was from the blood of the Mei family and inherited her grandfather's talent in calligraphy and painting. In the past two years, she cultivated her mind and cultivated her character in Puling Temple. She suddenly became enlightened and met a famous teacher to give me some advice, so she achieved such an achievement."
Their grandfather Mei Yi was well-versed in poetry, calligraphy and painting, especially in calligraphy and painting. He formed his own school, and even the ancestors praised him.
King Jin raised his eyebrows, then thought of something and nodded, "Maybe."
Cultivate your mind and cultivate your nature? I’m afraid it’s not. I wonder if this fourth brother really doesn’t know or pretending to be stupid? King Jin sneered in his heart, but it doesn’t matter, sooner or later he will reveal his tail.
Let’s talk about the emperor coming back from his surprise, looking at Lin Chenyao, and laughing: “You chose this wife yourself, are you satisfied?”
When she knew that Chunmanyuan Garden was painted by Chu Xinyu, Concubine Qi was secretly surprised. She thought Chu Xinyu would definitely not be able to pass the primary election, but she unexpectedly announced the result and was worried.
Now that I heard the emperor's words, I was anxious and said, "I see that Miss Chu Wu does not appreciate the Marquis of Beiping. If the emperor gives them a marriage, wouldn't it give them a pair of resentment?"
Guifei Qi's words were just in the hearts of most people, and they immediately nodded and agreed.
The King of Qin said, "The reason why words are trustworthy. If you don't believe them, why do you mean words? I think the Marquis of Peking can command the three armies and make them support them. This is also one of the reasons."
The words of the King of Qin blocked everyone, including the emperor, and you must fulfill what you promised just now, otherwise it would be dishonest and untrustworthy, so how can you convince the people of the world?
"But the Marquis of Beiping didn't like Miss Chu Wu. If the two were married, they would not be able to retire..."
Concubine Qi wanted to struggle for a while, but was interrupted by the King of Qin: "What the Marquis of Beiping wants is the best painting, and he did not say who he likes. It can be seen that he only focuses on the results rather than people. If he refuses because he is not his favorite, why didn't he directly call the emperor to give him a marriage?"
"..." Concubine Qi had nothing to refute.
Chu Xinyu almost applauded this cousin. Because of his words, the emperor promised that she would not change, and Lin Chenyao's request could not be changed either. Therefore, her initiative in marriage was still in her hands. She could ask the emperor to fulfill her promise and marry the son of the aristocratic family she liked, or she could ask Lin Chenyao to fulfill his promise and marry her as a wife.
Thinking about this situation, she was so excited!
When she heard that he proposed to the emperor that the best girl was the girl who painted the best, she thought about how to make the emperor refuse his request, or she would do it first, and told the emperor that she liked him and asked the emperor to give them a marriage.
She was worried that Xu Zhilan would get the most hydrangeas in her paintings, so she asked the emperor to give her to Lin Chenyao, not because she had no confidence in her painting skills. Xu Zhilan's painting skills were taught by her. Although she did not teach her everything, she also learned 70% to 80%. Moreover, Xu Zhilan specially asked her for the painting methods of peony.
Over the years, Xu Zhilan must have been studying hard and imitating her paintings of peonies in her previous life. So she did not choose to paint flowers alone, for fear of revealing her bottom. Instead, she drew a corner of the garden and used many expression techniques such as vivid and vivid artistic conception.
Before the painting was displayed, her heart was over and over, worried that these people would have no vision or that someone would have secretly destroyed her and let her lose the election. After all, she did not have the ability to put people into the palace. At the same time, she was regretting her previous behavior. When she saw Lin Chenyao frowned at her, her mind became hot and she said something she didn't appreciate.
Therefore, when she saw her paintings showing everyone and obtained the most golden hydrangeas, she was actually quite surprised. To be honest, Xu Zhilan's paintings of Peony Richness are really good, with rigorous and beautiful techniques, with calm and steady brushwork, and bold colors, but her artistic conception and skills are a little worse than hers.
The spring garden she painted the most hydrangeas, so someone would definitely take the opportunity to use what she said before to block herself. Concubine Qi really came up with it. Fortunately, her cousin responded smartly and quoted a sentence from "The Legend of Liang in the Spring and Autumn Period", blocking everyone's mouths.
She looked at her cousin gratefully and found that he was so handsome. If she hadn't been unable to accept the incestuous thing of cousin getting married, she thought it was a good choice to marry him. She had a good appearance and identity, and these alone would be very attractive.
Then his eyes changed and he looked at Lin Chenyao. He was also looking at her. The two of them met, and she smiled at him. Lin Chenyao was stunned. This woman seemed to like to laugh very much, and although her smile was beautiful and intimidating, it was very false.
He was indeed surprised by the painting of Chunmanyuan. He thought it was painted by Fu Yinghua because this expression method was very similar to that of Fu Yinghua, who he knew when he was a child. Later, when he saw her in the capital, her style seemed to have changed, her form was similar but her spirit was different. At that time, he thought it was her who grew up and neglected to practice, so he retreated.
But over the years, she has not been abandoned, but has studied hard and practiced hard, but the paintings she painted are still not as charming as before. If he had not seen her copy Liu Zhenzhi's "Night of the Mid-Autumn Festival" with his own eyes and then saw the copied painting again, he would have thought that his memory was wrong when he was a child and thought things were too beautiful.
Therefore, although the names of the painters of the three paintings were folded away, he recognized that the Peony Fugui was painted by Fu Yinghua at a glance, and then was shocked when he saw Chunmanyuan. Especially her figure painting method, the image was accurate and unique, just like what he saw when he was a child. A few simple strokes could vividly portray the character's expression.
This is something that Fu Yinghua couldn't do. She has always refused to paint characters. She only focuses on landscapes, orchids, bamboos, flowers, and other types, especially flowers.
Lin Chenyao narrowed his eyes and looked at her, his eyes darkened. He remembered the painting "Night of the Mid-Autumn Festival". Unless someone who has seen the original works and is very familiar with Liu Zhenzhi's paintings, it will be difficult to distinguish between true and false. Not only can she distinguish them, she also wants to exchange for falsehoods. In addition to her work today, her identity and purpose, he has to doubt.
Chu Xinyu didn't know how entangled Lin Chenyao was in his face, and after smiling at him, he didn't look at him again. He saw the King of Jin staring at him with a smile. His eyes seemed to be looking at some prey. She smiled slightly. She hated his eyes, and even more.
King Jin looked at her, raised his lips and said, "Miss Chu Wu's spring garden is really good, but the banquet has not ended and the performance has not been finished. As for whether her paintings are the best, it remains to be discussed. If any of you think your paintings are better than her, you can still play it out. There will be a performance project that you can challenge her alone."
Concubine Qi took the words of King Jin and said to the emperor: "Emperor, I suddenly have an idea."
The emperor raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "What do you think of the imperial concubine?"
"I think the girls here will definitely not be convinced that Miss Chu Wu took the most golden hydrangeas. In order to convince everyone, I think it is best to draw three girls to challenge Miss Chu Wu by drawing lots. If Miss Chu Wu can defeat them one by one, I think the girls here should not be dissatisfied."
As soon as this statement was spoken, the audience applauded thunderously, showing their agreement.
But Chu Xinyu immediately had a dark face, fighting against three with one? He had to win all of them. If he lost, he would lose. This idea was all her loss.
This Concubine Qi came to find her scumbag, so she blurted out without thinking: "Your Majesty, my daughter is against it! Three to one is obviously not about bullying the few, even if she wins, my daughter is not glorious, right?"
Some of the girls couldn't help but say, "Miss Chu Wu dared not accept it, because she was afraid. I think today's painting was just a coincidence and it was not a skill at all."
Chu Xin and Yu Xun looked in the voice, talking about Guo Jingyi who was stepping on her skirt. She smiled and said, "I don't have much ability. If Miss Guo thinks she is capable, then you can come out to fight against three, and you must win all, and you must lose. I will give you all this golden hydrangea and let you be the future wife of the Marquis of Peking."
Upon hearing this, a sharp flashed in Lin Chenyao's eyes, and then he stared at her thoughtfully, like the deep sea, unable to see the bottom.
"..." Guo Jingyi was speechless.
Someone laughed and said that it was Yang Qianjun. It was indeed a family. Like Tong Zhen, his mind was filled with water.
"Then you win two games in three games, that's it." A low, unquestionable voice sounded.
Chu Xinyu looked at Lin Chenyao in shock. He wanted her to compete with these people? What did he mean? He was afraid that she would pester him, so he took the opportunity to compete with these people. If she lost, the emperor would not marry her to him?
Even the Marquis of Beiping agreed with Concubine Qi's idea and asked Chu Xinyu to fight three, which shows that the Marquis of Beiping did not want this marriage. The lost hearts of the girls who admired him rekindled hope, and they all had high fighting spirits.
The King of Qin frowned slightly. Chu Xinyu's understanding of painting surprised him. When he was a referee, he thought he had read the wrong name when he saw Chunmanyuan. Now he looked at Lin Chenyao's attitude towards her again. When the eyes of the two people met, they felt an indescribable weirdness.
What surprised him even more was that Lin Chenyao actually agreed with Concubine Qi’s idea. Should he use this to get rid of this marriage grant, or would he want Chu Xinyu to convince the public with his strength?
If it was the former, Lin Chenyao would not have to win the second game for her; if it was the latter, Lin Chenyao's persistence with Fu Yinghua would not be able to let go like this.
His behavior this time is incomprehensible.
Seeing Lin Chenyao agreeing, the emperor smiled happily and said, "Okay, I will win two games in three games. If you win that side, I will reward them with a wish."
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole hall was full of excitement.
The emperor has made a decision, who dares to have any objection?
Chu Xinyu was full of evil spirits, and cursed Concubine Qi hundreds of times in his heart. Lin Chenyao also said that he had won two games in three games, but she felt extremely wronged. Why did she want her to compete with these people again?
Although Chu Jiating and Yang Lianxin didn't have the chance to show off, they were very happy to see Chu Xinyu being disliked by the Marquis of Peking, even if they got the most golden hydrangea, they had to pass the three tests to give them a marriage. Their hearts were already blocked by jealousy, but no matter whether she would lose face from the Marquis of Zhongyi's mansion, let her be embarrassed first.
"Fifth Sister, your flute is good, you must bring honor to our Marquis' Mansion!" Chu Jiating's voice was not loud, but it was heard by everyone in the audience.
Flute? Is it good to play the flute of Miss Chu Wu? The girls remembered it secretly. If they draw themselves later, they would never compete with her to play the flute.
When Chu Xinyu heard this, his eyes twitched slightly. The six sisters were really "deep in love". Fortunately, she just said casually before. If she really only knew how to play the flute, she would definitely lose this time.
