Chapter 72
Zhu Li's face darkened slightly, and her gaze swept across Wang's head.

Sitting among the young ladies, Li Ying could notice something wrong with his eyes, and her heart became more and more anxious.

What on earth is he suspecting?
Even if she and her mother deliberately suppressed Li Min, there was nothing wrong with it.Which mansion gate is not for you to fight over.

Zhu Ji sat at the banquet and sipped his tea slowly. Old Eleven giggled and whispered in his ear, "Brother, look at so many girls at the banquet looking at you alone."

"Your starling doesn't like it." Lao Jiu held Lao Eleven and said.

"Myna has never been to the Hundred Flowers Banquet, so I don't know. Every year, the talented women who come out here will soon become famous in the capital."

"Who was the oiran last year?" Zhu Ji asked with a hint of interest.

"I remember it's the daughter of a certain adult in Zhan Shi's mansion. It's okay to look at." Zhu Qi swayed the white fan in her hand and squinted her eyes as if she was recalling the past last year. He smiled, "Brother, you should be familiar with the so-called personnel rewards and punishments, so you don't understand what this oiran means?"

Such things as competitions are of course determined by default, and the rankings are all bought with silver taels.

In fact, Zhu Li had never been to the Hundred Flowers Banquet. This time, if the prince hadn't really needed his assistance for something important, he wouldn't have come. As a result, hearing what Old Eleven said, Justice's face immediately sank several times. Divide the weight.

Seeing his expression, Old Eleven hurriedly fanned him: "Third brother, take it easy, isn't he just an oiran?"

No fun!
Is a talented woman bought with silver interesting?

When Sun Jinhong and Lu Shi came over, they saw that a group of princes had expressions that were not quite right, and even the prince showed a little lack of interest.I hurriedly asked the people below, and only then did I know that Eleventh Master had exposed their old background of holding the Hundred Flowers Banquet.

The Hundred Flowers Banquet was a trick used by the couple to collect money for the empress.

Li Min had already seen through this point, and said to the little maid who was nervously about to help her prepare for the competition: "No matter how good the competition is, the ranking is not yours."

"Why?" Nian Xia asked simply.

Li Min didn't have enough experience in modern times for the evaluation?If you want to win the bid for scientific research, you don't know how many relationships you will have to give and how much money you will get.The competitions are all superficial things, the real thing is to see who gives the most money from the bottom.

The so-called society, do as the Romans do.She, Li Min, should play with this group of singers.

In the end, unexpectedly, in order to hide the embarrassment of face, Sun Jinhong and Lu decided to play the game for real this time.Let all the princes present hold a vote in their hands, and vote on the spot to choose the real oiran.

Hearing this sudden change in the rules of the competition, those wives who had privately sent silver taels in order to buy their daughters a ranking first all became sullen.

The silver was thrown away——

Distressed!

Her grandma's!

If you really lost so much money and can't even get a ranking, how can you explain to your man and mother-in-law when you go back!
"Ma'am, it's true!"

"I can't blame the eldest wife, who would have thought that the eighth master would come?"

"Why is Eleventh Master's mouth always unwilling to let us go?"

Master Eleven is handsome and handsome, but no wife wants her daughter to marry Eleven, and that's the reason.How can it be possible to find a son-in-law who is very good at cheating his own people.

Li Min didn't expect the opportunity to come so soon, it seemed that it was the right time to come to the queen's mother's house today, and all the good luck went to her Li Min.

With his fingers, he couldn't help touching the jade bracelet hidden in the sleeve: Could it be the good luck brought by this bracelet?

The bracelet has been worn on her hand for a long time, and she can feel the extraordinary aura on the bracelet, lingering around her wrist, as if protecting her on behalf of someone.

Li Min's eyelids twitched.

The Hundred Flowers Banquet has begun.

The girls took the stage one by one to show off their skills.

First, a lady from the official family played a song "Jiangnan is infinitely good" on the guzheng.After a euphemistic and moving melody is over, there will naturally be no applause like in modern times.The young lady who played got up and bowed shyly to the prince and all the princes.

The prince shouted: Good!
When the flower bone in his hand was about to be thrown out, the old eleven, who was afraid of chaos, said to the prince: "Second brother, don't you want to keep it for the third brother's future wife?"

These words remind the prince that there is only one ticket.

Hearing this, the prince took back the flower bone that was about to be thrown out, and promised: "Yes, yes, I forgot. Third, don't take it to heart."

Zhu Li almost spit out the tea he ate, stared straight at Zhu Qi, and then said to the prince: "Your Highness, bending the law for personal gain is not the principle of the emperor's education for us."

I saw that the eyes of the group of people who were envious and jealous of Li Ying because of Eleventh Master just now turned into the words "extremely pitiful".

Li Ying stood up at this point, and Yingying said: "What the third master said is that my daughter hopes that His Royal Highness will treat every girl who participates in the Hundred Flowers Banquet fairly, and the princes are also the same. Only justice can convince everyone."

Hearing what she said, Prince Zhu Ming of course smiled warmly, and said to Zhu Li with some approval in his eyes: "No wonder the queen and empress dowager have said that the daughter-in-law you chose, third brother, is a perfect match for you."

There was a little softness in Zhu Li's solemn eyes.

Li Yinglian knelt down and said modestly: "Your Highness the Crown Prince praises my courtier so much, I really can't bear it."

Li Min drank the boiled water that was poured, didn't eat, and the tea was not very good. Besides, this ancient water was not polluted by industry, so it was called divine water.She didn't pay much attention when Li Ying was acting on the stage, but the ladies who saw Li Ying acting were all so angry that they complained: The prince didn't praise you, why can't you bear it?
In fact, Li Ying was quite jealous, but she was surrounded by her own mother, unlike her Li Min who could be bullied by others.

However, the most pitiful one was the lady from a government office who was robbed of the limelight because of Li Ying. Li Ying said she wanted to be fair, but in the end, as the first one to start the show, she didn't get a single vote.Hearing that this young lady had just stepped down, she immediately went to find a place with her mother to hug her head and cry.

With such a good opportunity, the Eighth Prince also came, but in the end, they didn't show any demeanor.

The Eighth Prince was the one Li Min heard most talking about from the people behind her. However, she looked at Zhu Ji for a long time and admitted that he was also a handsome man. However, it seemed that there was no such thing as her brother-in-law, Duke Protector. Prince Xiaoli is handsome.

So, whoever said it, in order to vent her anger on Li Min, Zhu Li asked someone to bring a knife to demonstrate in front of his wives.

Nian Xia said "ah" and covered her mouth to scream.
