Concubine's Survival Handbook

Chapter 169 The Poetry Meeting Begins

The way back was very quiet, Chen Zhi came to Xiao Lin on a horse, looked at Xiao Lin's face and said casually, "Jing Ning is such a good girl, no wonder so many people like her, even me …Ugh."

Seeing that Xiao Lin's face became darker, but he still didn't speak, Chen Zhi continued, "Jing Ning is smart and decisive, and her mind is also very mature, which is far beyond what ordinary ladies can compare."

Listening to Chen Zhi's words, Xiao Rin nodded lightly, but still didn't make any comments. Seeing Xiao Rin's wooden appearance, Chen Zhi went on to say, "You said that Jingning is so good, it seems that she is right. I'm also a bit special, should I try it? Maybe it will be."

Xiao Lin turned his head to look at Chen Zhi fiercely, the cold light in his eyes flashed, and even his words carried a hint of coldness, "Don't touch her."

Seeing Xiao Rin's appearance, Chen Zhi laughed, the corners of his eyes curled up in a particularly alluring manner, "Tsk tsk, if you don't provoke you, are you going to keep silent?"

"Just now when I was chatting with Jing Ning, I found out that you are sitting there with a gloomy face. If you keep chasing girls like this, if this goes on, if the girls don't leave with others, they will be caught by you. That look scared me away."

Listening to Chen Zhi's words, Xiao Rin pursed her lips and said in a calm voice, "Whispering."

Chen Zhi was not annoyed, and continued, "Don't look at me for being long-winded, but I'm telling the truth. Jingning is a good girl. If you don't work hard, you will really be snatched away."

"I'm not afraid of your jokes. I don't know why. I have seen her before, but when I saw her again that day, I always had a strange feeling. It felt like a relative I hadn't seen for a long time."

"Looking at her sad expression, I really want to touch her head and tell her not to be afraid, I'm still here, if there is a previous life, Jing Ning and I may be relatives in the previous life, even if we are not relatives, They are also good friends, otherwise how can I explain that inexplicable feeling."

"Xiao Lin, you are my brother, and I recognize you. Although you are cold and talkative, you can't express, and you can't coax girls, but I know that your heart is like fire, which can warm Jingning, so if you Make her a decision and give her happiness."

Xiao Lin raised his head and looked at Chen Zhi. The rare seriousness in Chen Zhi's eyes made Xiao Lin feel shocked. Then he stared at Chen Zhi seriously, and said softly, "Yes. I will."

They returned to the city soon, and they made an appointment to attend the poetry meeting at that time, and then went back to their respective mansions.

On the day of the poetry meeting, Li Ziyue came to Jing Ning's courtyard early, walked up to Jing Ning, held Jing Ning's hand and said with a smile, "Sister Jingning probably hasn't forgotten to promise Ziyue to go to the poetry meeting. If you really forgot, Ziyue will not force sister Jingning."

After hearing Li Ziyue's words, Jing Ning sneered in her heart, but she still replied with a smile on her face, "Where is Sister Ziyue, how could Jingning forget Sister Ziyue's invitation? Look, isn't Jing Ning already Are you ready?"

Li Ziyue smiled and said, "Then let's go."

Jing Ning shook his head and said, "That day when Jing Ning was playing with Ms. Xiao Yuan and Xiao, she accidentally revealed her mouth. Who would have thought that Ms. Xiao would become interested and wanted to go with Jing Ning, which was not good for Jing Ning. If you refuse, you agree, sister Ziyue won't suggest it."

After hearing Jing Ning's words, Li Ziyue shook her head with a smile, followed Jing Ning and waited for Xiao Yuan's arrival, soon Xiao Yuan arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Jing Ning and his party walked towards the carriage at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion together.

It didn't take long for the group to arrive at the attic of the pavilion where the poetry meeting was held, and the attendants led the carriage down. Seeing the crowd gathered not far away, Jing Ning and his group also walked in that direction.

After walking over, he realized that Lan Yao and Chen Zhi were surrounded by the crowd. Chen Zhi, who was disguised as a woman, was still wearing a red dress as usual, but changed from a male style to a female style.

The brows on the face are light gray, which is different from those used by women in the past. The eyebrows and eyes are outlined with reddish-brown paint, which matches with the slightly raised peach blossom eyes, making it even more enchanting.

There is a bewitching red at the corners of her lips, matched with the gorgeous red on her fingertips, when the corners of her mouth are slightly hooked into a smile, she looks like that enchanting banshee.

Lan Yao, who was standing next to Chen Zhi, was wearing a red female general's uniform. Standing with Chen Zhi, there was a sense of harmonious fit.

At this time, Lan Yao also saw Jing Ning in the crowd, so she walked over quickly and said, "Jing Ning, you..."

Before Lan Yao finished speaking, Jing Ning spoke first, "Who is next to you, Yaoyao?"

After hearing Jing Ning's words, Lan Yao was puzzled for a moment, and then she realized, "This is my cousin from afar. This time I found out that there was a poetry meeting, so I brought her here to experience it."

Jing Ning politely and politely nodded to Chen Zhi who was dressed in women's clothes, and then said to Lan Yao, "It's time for the poetry meeting to start, let's go in."

A group of people seemed to have just woken up from Chen Zhi's beauty, and walked towards the pavilion.

The atmosphere along the way was much better than what Jing Ning had expected. It seemed that because of Chen Zhi's appearance, most people's eyes were fixed on Chen Zhi. Everyone came to their seats and sat down, and the poetry meeting began soon.

Without exception, the group of young ladies from various families were there to show off their talents, making a fool of themselves as the number one talented woman.

Jing Ning and his party sat at the table and chatted with each other while eating cakes and drinking tea. Soon the poetry meeting ended under the competition of the group of ladies. What surprised Jing Ning was that the embarrassment he imagined did not appear.

After the poetry meeting, everyone sat together and watched the show on the stage, talking and laughing, as if it was really just an ordinary party, Xiao Yuan and Lan Yao boredly put their faces together, and Lan Yao's eyes had already narrowed slightly stand up.

Seeing Lan Yao's appearance, Chen Zhi quietly pushed Lan Yao aside, Lan Yao looked at Chen Zhi with half-closed eyes, and asked, "Huh? What's the matter? Is this boring poetry meeting finally over?"

Seemingly hearing the word "end" from Lan Yao, Xiao Yuan immediately cheered up, "Is it over? It's finally over, I'm almost bored to death."

Looking at the appearance of Xiao Yuan and Lan Yao, the corners of Jing Ning's mouth twitched slightly, and he smiled and broke their illusions, "You guys are thinking beautifully, this poetry meeting seems to be over, and now we are all getting together to have fun, but It’s definitely not that simple.”

"You two, don't just relax your vigilance. If you are really bored, you two should go back first."

After hearing what Jing Ning said, Lan Yao shook her head first, "No, I can't go back. If I go back, who will protect you if this group of people act like monsters again, let alone this disciple, I don't worry about it."

Xiao Yuan also hurriedly said, "Yes, sister-in-law, so many people are staring at us, we can't let you here alone."

Hearing this, Jing Ning smiled, "Okay. Since this is the case, let's face it together before we wait for what will happen."
