another way."There's almost a month left. Let me discuss it with your father and uncle."Jia Ren nodded and didn't persuade him any further.He is now completely supported by his family and has grown q...In the new capital, many people knew that Princess Kangle and the fat girl from the Jia family were good friends.

But those are just hearsay, I haven't seen them with my own eyes a few times.

Today, looking at it this way, is really novel.

Miss Jia was a glutton, her cheeks stuffed with food, plump like a squirrel.

Lady Kangle not only didn't find it objectionable, but also fed water to Miss Jia and wiped her mouth with a handkerchief.

And looking at the food, it wasn't arranged on a grand table as if for a feast. It was obvious that County Princess Kangle had specially prepared this meal for Miss Jia.

It's understandable that the ladies of the household wouldn't mind, after all, it's just two young girls playing together.

But the young ladies in each household were not feeling well in their hearts.

You have to know, Concubine Kangle hasn't spoken to anyone since she arrived, not even a glance. Now she's surrounding this gluttonous silly girl.

What a blind fool!

Dare these noble ladies not even merit a glance from County Kangle

At the end of the day, County Princess Kangle is nothing more than a peasant girl. What is there to be proud of!

In this world, women and children are the hardest to raise.

Among them, the little girl is the most difficult to fathom!

Therefore, many girls felt jealousy and anger.

The noble consort smiled gently as she sipped her tea, occasionally glancing at the dancing girl. In fact, she had seen everything and a spark of interest had ignited in her heart....

The program on stage, one after another.

Occasionally, there are mistakes made by the girls, but most of them are pretty good.

He is good at playing the qin, his calligraphy and paintings are excellent, and he also sings with a clear and cheerful voice.

The Imperial Noble Consort frequently bestowed gifts, which made everyone even more enthusiastic.

However, after more than half an hour, all the girls had finished their performances.

The Noble Consort then smiled and asked the Third Princess, "Princess, you see these young ladies are truly excellent. Besides being beautiful and graceful, they are also talented."

The Third Princess was lively and disliked these things like calligraphy, painting, chess, and music. After sitting for so long, she found it boring and almost fell asleep.

At this, she scoffed and replied, "It's not that impressive. They don't have to take the imperial examinations. They spend their years learning music, calligraphy, and painting. Reaching such a level is nothing special!"

The Noble Consort seemed a little embarrassed, glancing at the crowd below, her expression carrying a hint of guilt.

She felt bad that because of her words, everyone had been looked down upon by the princess.

The housewives, though unhappy, were shrewd and kept their thoughts to themselves.

The young ladies, having just received their rewards, were filled with pride and arrogance. They could not help but show it now.

Especially that Miss Lu, the first to perform just now, also received the best reward. She thought she had caught the favor of the Noble Consort and was about to become someone superior immediately.

Thinking back to how she had been forced by Baozhu and Jia Dafu's wife to apologize, her desire for revenge became even stronger.

Then, she rose and said, "Your Majesty the Noble Consort, this servant girl is of limited learning and skill. Naturally, this little ability cannot impress the Princess."

"I imagine you must encounter far more accomplished women than myself on a daily basis, Your Highness. For instance, Princess Kangle or Miss Jia"

Today, with the esteemed Lady Kangle and Miss Jia both present, why not have them display their talents as well Allow us to broaden our horizons and be enlightened.

The other young ladies who were good friends with Miss Lu, seeing her take the lead, also readily agreed.

"Indeed, Your Majesty the Noble Consort, allow me to broaden my horizons as well."

"The lord's older brother is the newly appointed top scholar, as the younger sister of a top scholar, she must also be well-read and intelligent."

"And Jia Girl's cousin, also a new scholar, is naturally also proficient in poetry, chess, calligraphy and painting, surpassing us all, right"

The Third Princess was pampered since she was a child, born into a noble family, so naturally she wasn't good at reading people's expressions. However, she could still distinguish between flattery and genuine words.

These few girls were so strange and unpredictable, that even though she was annoyed by their dishonesty, they dared not do anything to her. This resentment flared up and targeted Jia Yin and Bao Zhu!

She immediately glared and rebuked, “Which family are you from What kind of nonsense are you spouting! Just because my brother is a new scholar doesn't mean he has to be equally learned and talented. Are any of your brothers scholars If not, then your whole family is stupid!”

Several girls were choked, they didn't expect the third princess to be so eloquent.

They wanted to retort, but they dared not, so they could only express their dissatisfaction on their faces.

The Noble Consort seemed to be afraid of the Third Princess's domineering attitude, and tentatively persuaded her, "Princess, please don't be angry. They just wanted to see how knowledgeable the County Lord is."

The Li family hails from the countryside and has only been in Xindu for a decade. Their background is indeed somewhat shallow.

"A former top scholar had already gained the emperor's favor, which was rare and commendable. The county princess just lacked a bit in scholarship; no one could say anything about it."

Jia Yin originally didn't want to speak, after all, it's better to do less than more.

But seeing this, she couldn't help but laugh.

Several young women stood up and taunted him, ignoring his words.

But the Noble Consort added fuel to the fire. If she didn't retaliate, it would be tantamount to admitting defeat.

Maybe tomorrow, rumors will spread throughout the new capital that the Li family has a shallow foundation, Princess Kang Le is as stupid as a pig, and even the Li family's top scholar is favored by the emperor without true talent and learning!

She flicked her sleeves, stood up directly, and smiled faintly.

"I'm afraid I'll disappoint the esteemed Imperial Consort. Though our Li family may not have a prestigious lineage, we value education and discipline. My siblings are all hardworking scholars, dedicated to serving the Tianwu Empire with utmost loyalty. This is well-known throughout Tianwu, and no fleeting words can erase it."

Of course, this "who" refers to the noble consort.

The Noble Consort's face was a little pale, she didn't want to argue with the Third Princess, but she wasn't afraid of a country-born County Princess.

"My lady has misunderstood. No one said your father and brothers were not loyal to the country. It's just that your talents... are perhaps not as good as those of the other young ladies here."

After all, each of these young ladies comes from a prestigious family and has been taught by renowned masters since childhood. Don't you think so

Jia Yin glanced at those so-called noble ladies with their heads held high, disdain growing in her eyes.

The knife was already in her hand, and if she didn't see red soon, the words "coward" would be carved into her head!

"Your Majesty, my lady cannot agree with your words. Who says that noblewomen are necessarily well-educated There are foolish ones who can't grasp things, even after studying for ten or so years. They might not even be as good as I am, who falls asleep whenever I see a book!"

"If Your Majesty, the Imperial Noble Consort, doesn't believe me, why not have this servant girl compete with the other young ladies present What do you say"

This is... fighting dozens with one!

Everyone was stunned into silence.

They couldn't tell if Jiayin was truly confident in confronting everyone, or if she was arrogant and oblivious to her own limitations.

Princess Three and Baozhu were truly worried that Jia Yin would be at a disadvantage!

Baozhu tightly grasped Jiayin's sleeve, hurriedly persuading her, "Jiayin elder sister, no, no! There are so many of them!"

The Third Princess also stood up abruptly and exclaimed, "No way, Jiayin! How can you compete against so many people alone Besides, if you're unhappy, just beat them up! Why bother competing with them, it's a waste of effort!"

Jia Yin patted Bao Zhu's back and gave the third princess another look, smiling, "There's no other way, since things have come to this, even if I refuse, I can only bite the bullet and go for it."

"Otherwise, not only will I be ridiculed, but my whole family will lose face as well."ously, even practicing together in pairs, and soon they almost learned it.The village head and a few others, including Zhao Shu, rushed over upon hearing the news. They entered Li's courtyard and, aft...
