If she wasn’t a woman, how could she be humiliated by the Chu and Jin Princes? She even caused the Great Yan to lose face.
At this moment, the Imperial Advisor, who was sitting below Emperor Yan, frowned.
How could his precious granddaughter be bullied by others?
Not only him, but Emperor Yan also frowned when he saw this.
The Sixth Princess couldn’t hold back her anger and was about to rush forward.
However, she was pulled back by Lin Xiaoyue’s small movement.
“Haha.” Then, someone heard a chuckle.
This chuckle was clearly not loud, but many people heard it.
Because the hall instantly fell silent.
“Haha.” Lin Xiaoyue chuckled again.
This time, everyone was sure that the chuckle was actually from Madam Li.
The Chu and Jin Princes were stunned when they saw Lin Xiaoyue looking up at them without any fear and even smiling at them.
“What Your Highnesses have heard is true. However, Your Highnesses, do you know that the Great Yan is a country of etiquette and honor.”
As soon as she said this, the faces of the Chu and Jin princes darkened.
This woman calling them rude?
“I’ve heard before that the people of Chu and Jin are fierce and live a casual life without regard for ethics.” Lin Xiaoyue suddenly pretended to be surprised. Then, as if she had thought of something, she quickly shut her mouth.
“I misspoke! The two princes are magnanimous and will definitely not take this to heart.” As she spoke, Lin Xiaoyue bowed to the two of them.
The princes, who were about to flare up, were instantly hit back by a soft fist.
They couldn’t. Otherwise, they would be bullying a woman.
The Sixth Princess was the first to regain her senses. She tugged at Lin Xiaoyue and secretly gave her a thumbs up.
She was really amazing! Not only was she good at math, but she was also good at talking!
Look, she even fought back.
That’s right, Chu Jin’s people had no ethics.
It was not uncommon for a brother-in-law to marry a sister-in-law, or even a stepson to marry a stepmother! They were indeed shameless.
The courtiers of Yan were shocked at first, but then some people couldn’t help but smile.
Isn’t that so? Chu Jin had no sense of propriety, righteousness, or shame.
Emperor Yan and Liu Wuji looked at each other, and a smile flashed across their eyes.
However, the two of them could not laugh and could only continue to hold their hands.
“Humph!” Seeing that Lin Xiaoyue was still staring at him, Prince Chu snorted and turned his body away.
Prince Jin also glared at Lin Xiaoyue and turned his body.
She had a sharp tongue. They wanted to see how long she could be smug after she started answering the questions later.
Xu Yan finally looked at Lin Xiaoyue.
“Does the Great Yan have talents? We’ll know later.” He said.
His eyes were indifferent, as if he did not care about Lin Xiaoyue at all.
Lin Xiaoyue smiled.
“Please enlighten me, ATr. Xu.” Then, he bowed respectfully to Xu Yan.
Xu Yan glanced at Lin Xiaoyue again before standing up.
At the same time, the other two people beside Xu Yan also stood up.
They followed Xu Yan to the center of the hall.
With Xu Yan in the lead, the three of them bowed to Emperor Yan.
“Your Majesty of the Great Yan, since everyone is here, can the competition begin now?” Xu Yan asked in a deep voice.
He looked down on the princes’ actions.
He looked down on that girl’s sharp-tongued performance.
He wanted to see everyone’s true strengths.
Hmph, the person Liu Wuji chose, he hoped he wouldn’t be disappointed.
Emperor Yan looked at Lin Xiaoyue.
Seeing Lin Xiaoyue walking over, he bowed to him and nodded.
“Then let’s begin.” He said.
As soon as he finished speaking, Eunuch Dahu waved his hand, and a guard brought over the hourglass.
Then, the table, the cushion, and the four treasures of the study.
After everything was arranged, Eunuch Dahu bowed to Emperor Yan.
With a wave of Emperor Yan’s hand, the guards began to count down.
Seeing this, Xu Yan and the others did not delay and handed over the first question.
The guard opened the scroll and showed it to Lin Xiaoyue and the others.
Emperor Yan, who was sitting in the upper seat, and some people near the upper seat could also see the contents of the question.
Although these people had never studied arithmetic in particular, they were all well-read and proficient in arithmetic..
