Chapter 270
The third princess, Zhou Lihe, said this, but it angered all the ladies. Everyone felt that Fang Dongqiao was contemptuous of their talents and disdained to compete with them. Like this, Fang Dongqiao bruised her forehead with a headache.

"In this way, the third princess must want the daughter of the people to show her hand?"

"This princess naturally wants to open her eyes."

"Then it's better to have fun alone than to have fun with everyone. The three princesses will show off together with the girls, okay? In this way, if the little girl makes a fool of herself, it won't be too ugly to have the three princesses as outstanding as her company. Some."

Being so forced, even if Fang Dongqiao didn't want to cause trouble, she didn't want them to tarnish her elder brother's name.

The third princess, Zhou Lihe, had already decided in her heart that Fang Dongqiao was not capable, so she naturally didn't worry about her tricks, so she immediately agreed with her and made her fully understand that even if she gave her shoes, she was not worthy.

The third princess Zhou Lihe nodded and agreed to Fang Dongqiao's proposal without hesitation in order to make Fang Dongqiao look even more ugly against her backdrop.

Fang Dongqiao thought that since the third princess Zhou Lihe accepted her proposal, she should use some tricks later anyway. Who told her to be forced? When thinking this way, Fang Dongqiao already had a heart idea.

Fang Dongqiao said that He Caiwei, the daughter of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, has already played the piano one, Ji Yanran, the granddaughter of the prince and Taifu, the calligraphy one, and Cao Yuxiang, the daughter of the prime minister's mansion, for the dance one, and the rest can be chosen. That is to say, one game of chess, one game of painting and reciting poems are right.

The three princesses, Zhou Lihe, were obviously not willing to challenge the talents that the ladies had already challenged. After all, in such a comparison between the two sides, it is really uncertain who will win and who will win, so her thoughts are very consistent with Fang Dongqiao at this time. She would never choose the talents that the previous three women have shown brilliantly. She naturally chooses what she is good at, and that is one of the paintings.

Fang Dongqiao heard that the third princess Zhou Lihe chose one of the paintings, which suits her heart.

Compared with chess and poetry reciting, she has a little chance of winning in painting, but it is not easy to beat the third princess Zhou Lihe.

Her skills in painting, especially in all kinds of flowers, are outstanding. Fang Dongqiao has seen the peony picture painted by the third princess Zhou Lihe in the girls' school. The painting skills and techniques are already quite outstanding. , if it is true that the two sides rely on their strength to draw, it will be hard to predict who will win or lose.

You must know that when it comes to painting, her meticulous painting is different from Zhou Lihe's ink painting. The painting skills are different, and it will naturally be different in everyone's eyes.

What's more, the winning and losing of this painting process is originally different for everyone, and whoever likes who's painting method more will inevitably have a difference in winning or losing.

To put it more harshly, if everyone looked at the status of the third princess Zhou Lihe, it would be reasonable to judge her to lose at that time, so if Fang Dongqiao wants to win against Zhou Lihe this time, it will be better than her painting. It is not enough to be evenly divided. She must judge her paintings higher than Zhou Lihe's in the eyes of everyone. In this way, no matter how biased they are, they will not have the face to announce that Zhou Lihe has won her. At most, it can only be said that she is indistinguishable from her paintings.

And what Fang Dongqiao wanted was such a sentence, she didn't need to get the news of her victory from others, as long as she didn't lose to Zhou Lihe, that's fine.

Thinking of this, when Fang Dongqiao wrote on the white rice paper, her eyes flashed suddenly. She first asked Mu Jin, the maid beside her, to call the steward who led the way over, and told the steward to go down and prepare something for her. Things, the steward listened to Fang Dongqiao's order, and naturally prepared them for Fang Dongqiao very quickly, and brought them to Fang Dongqiao.

"Miss Fang, what you want, the servant has asked the servants to prepare it for the miss. Miss Fang can take a look, what is missing? If there is something missing, just tell Miss Fang, the servant will immediately ask the servants to make it for the miss That's it."

The manager listened to Fang Dongqiao asked him to prepare a few things, and he was a little puzzled. He didn't understand why Fang Dongqiao asked him to prepare some charcoal sticks, some feathers, various pigments and a bottle of phosphorescent powder.

Among these items, only the paint can be used. For the other items, the manager really couldn't understand why Fang Dongqiao prepared such a few items, but since Fang Dongqiao proposed it, no matter how confused the manager was, he had to give it to Fang Dongqiao. Done.

Once everything was prepared for Fang Dongqiao, the person in charge specifically asked Fang Dongqiao what other needs he had, so that if he didn't make it right later, the elder son would find out afterwards, and he would have to go away without food.

Seeing that the steward had prepared a few things for her, Fang Dongqiao nodded and said with a smile, "No, that's all. Please trouble the steward. I don't have anything else to order at this moment. The steward will do as he pleases." You can be busy with other things."

Hearing what Fang Dongqiao said, the manager hurriedly nodded and retreated.

The third princess Zhou Li and the steward of Prince Zhong's Mansion on the other table actually listened to Fang Dongqiao's orders, with inexplicable anger in their eyes. Putting on the posture of a future mistress really pissed her off.

Thinking of this, Zhou Lihe, the third princess, couldn't care less about being admonished by the eldest princess in private just now, asking her to be forgiving and forgiving, not to be too serious. Zhou Lihe understood the meaning of those words very well Well, the eldest sister is nothing more than telling her not to embarrass Fang Dongqiao in this kind of situation, to embarrass her.

She originally listened to what the eldest sister wanted, and wanted to let Fang Dongqiao go later, so that she wouldn't lose too badly, and just deal with it casually, but now she was annoyed, this annoyance, she She mustered all her strength, exerted all her strengths, and devoted herself to the match against Fang Dongqiao.

Fang Dongqiao didn't know that the third princess and the eldest princess had such talk in private. She originally calculated the outcome of the match based on the full strength of the third princess Zhou Lihe.

Therefore, what she has to do now is to draw the painting in her hand well, and then use some tricks to make the game end in a draw.

Fang Dongqiao, who had made such a plan, was not in a hurry to do it at this time. She lazily took charcoal sticks casually, tried it first, outlined a rural autumn scene with a few strokes, and then carefully In some places, I used a feather to dip it in ink, and carefully painted a few places, and the small farmyard was clearly drawn.

Then I drew the chrysanthemums in full bloom in front of the yard, and then replaced them with charcoal sticks. I added a few strokes lightly and lightly, and added a few strokes appropriately in light and heavy shades to outline a few children playing in the farmhouse. They are lively and pretty. A young woman washing vegetables was parked, and a man returning home was walking on the trail in the distance, with a lively fish in his hand. The outlines of these characters made the static pastoral scenery a little bit different. The child has a dynamic feeling.

In the end, she looked at the idyllic autumn scene in her pen, and she seemed to be missing something. She took a feather, stained it with ink, and wrote on the side, "Picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, and seeing Nanshan leisurely."

Such a poem.

After finishing writing, Fang Dongqiao felt that the mood of this poem paired with such a painting did not match the artistic conception, as if she had superimposed on it.

In this way, Fang Dongqiao looked at it, smiled wryly, quickly folded the scroll, put it aside, and began to rearrange the painting.

At this time, the third princess Zhou Lihe's painting of peonies and wealth was almost finished, but Fang Dongqiao actually abandoned the original painting and started a new painting, which made the third princess Zhou Lihe feel that she was sure to win, and the present Everyone thought the same way, thinking that Fang Dongqiao would lose this time.

One must know that less than half of the incense in the censer has been burned. If her new painting is not completed within the remaining time, then no matter how good the painting is, it will be useless.

At this time, everyone in the room agreed that Fang Dongqiao would not be able to finish the second painting, so Fang Dongqiao completely ignored the eyes of many people who glanced over her. She immersed herself in her painting and sketched it heartily, as if she had painted it countless times Generally speaking, the writing is skillful and neat.

Time passed gradually, and the stick of incense stuck in the incense burner burned down bit by bit.

The painting of the three princesses, Zhou Lihe, has been completed a long time ago. Everyone here is watching Fang Dongqiao's movements eagerly, but Fang Dongqiao is still the same as before, calm and breezy, and not nervous at all. With random movements, she continued to draw like a flowing brush. At the last moment when the stick of incense burned to the end, Fang Dongqiao seemed to have counted the time, and her pen-writing hand stopped and continued to draw.

She put down the paintbrush, covered the painting, and put it on the tray beside her, waiting for Princess Zhong to send someone to take the painting away. At the same time, the third princess Zhou Li and the servant girl were also there. In the past, the paintings were collected and uploaded.

The loyal princess saw that Fang Dongqiao's painting was obviously not enough time, so she didn't want to make her look ugly, so she ordered someone to open the third princess Zhou Lihe's painting of rich and noble peonies first.

As soon as the painting was opened, the peony was lifelike, and the petals were clearly visible. It was truly a magnificent work. Everyone who saw it praised the three princesses, Zhou Lihe, and Princess Zhongqin was no exception, and nodded with satisfaction with a smile.

"The peony picture of the third princess is getting better and better. It looks like a real peony in the painting. Such a painting is naturally a rare one. If you want to come to Miss Fang's painting, you don't need to read it. From Wangfei's point of view, the painting of the Three Princesses can come out on top."

What Princess Zhongqin said was obviously for Fang Dongqiao's consideration. Everyone here is a discerning person, and they couldn't see the truth here. They naturally echoed what Princess Zhongqin meant, and they all agreed in this way.

It's just that the three princesses, Zhou Li and Ben, wanted to embarrass Fang Dongqiao, how could she let go of such a good opportunity at this moment, besides, even if she didn't speak up, someone would naturally speak up for her.
