Seeing Zuo Xinyi's face filled with a smug smile, she seemed to be very successful, and several people couldn't help but feel puzzled. The woman in the lavender skirt came closer, blinking her big eyes, and looked at Zuo Xinyi curiously, trying to get some clues from her expression.

"Sister! Sister!" She called out repeatedly, trying to attract Zuo Xinyi's attention. "What are you thinking about? You are so absent-minded. Looking at your expression, there must be something good! Tell me quickly, why are you hiding it from the sisters?"

Liu Mengqi's words were a bit coquettish and eager. She really wanted to know the secret in Zuo Xinyi's heart. In her opinion, although Zuo Xinyi usually had some little secrets, this was the first time she had seen such a smile of obvious success. This made her even more curious and wanted to find out.

Liu Mengqi's father, Liu Changfeng, was the Minister of Rites, an important position in the court, responsible for important ceremonial affairs of the court. As one of the six ministries, the Ministry of Rites was in charge of national ceremonies, imperial examinations, diplomatic receptions, schools, imperial examinations and other related matters. It was a key department to maintain national ceremonial order and cultural heritage.

As the Minister of Rites, Liu Changfeng had many important responsibilities in his position. He had to personally participate in and supervise the preparation and execution of various palace celebrations and sacrificial ceremonies to ensure that all etiquette was standardized, decent and solemn. At the same time, he also had to pay attention to the fairness and justice of the imperial examinations, supervise the examination process, and select outstanding talents for the country. In addition, Liu Changfeng also had to receive foreign envoys on behalf of the court and demonstrate the country's etiquette and cultural heritage.

In addition, the rank of the Minister of Rites is the second rank, which is among the senior officials. This rank not only represents Liu Changfeng's status and authority in the court, but also highlights the importance of his responsibilities.

Liu Mengqi, the daughter of Liu Changfeng, has three older brothers and has been spoiled since she was a little princess. This unique growing environment has made her character arrogant and domineering.

Liu Mengqi has outstanding looks and eyes as bright as stars, but she often has a hint of disdain and arrogance. She is used to being self-centered and always treats people around her with a condescending attitude. At home, her right to speak is almost equivalent to command. Although her brothers sometimes feel helpless about her willfulness, they are more tolerant and doting.

Liu Mengqi's arrogance is not unreasonable, but comes from her inner confidence and pride. She is smart and talented, and has shown extraordinary talent in poetry, songs, calligraphy and painting.

However, this character also makes her appear too strong and overbearing when dealing with others, which often causes her to offend others.

Despite this, Liu Changfeng still dotes on his daughter. He believes that his daughter's excellence and pride are her innate qualities, and as long as she can maintain her principles and bottom line, it doesn't matter if she is a little arrogant.

Let's get back to the point. Zuo Xinyi didn't seem to want to reveal her thoughts easily. She smiled and shook her head, saying, "Mengqi, don't let your imagination run wild. Some things can't be said casually now. When the time comes, you will know naturally."

After hearing this, Liu Mengqi looked at Yu Lan with obvious disappointment!

Seeing that Zuo Xinyi remained silent and didn't seem to want to say anything more, the few people tacitly didn't continue to ask. They noticed that Zuo Xinyi's emotions had calmed down and she was no longer as angry and excited as she was at the beginning.

So, they exchanged glances and decided to let Zuo Xinyi have a good rest and recuperate. They whispered, "Xinyi, you should have a good rest first and don't think too much. You need to stay in the best condition so that you can beat Feng Yanan tomorrow."

After hearing this, Zuo Xinyi nodded slightly to express her gratitude, and several people stood up and left.

As night falls, the bells of Jing'an Temple echo in the quiet night, adding a bit of mystery and solemnity to this solemn Buddhist place. However, the temple tonight is unusual, and a noisy sound comes from somewhere, breaking the tranquility of the temple.

Zuo Xinyi was in the side room. When she heard the sound, she couldn't help but get excited. Her cousin Lin Xiuqing was very quick. It must be that something happened with Feng Yanan. She stood up, tidied her clothes, and walked out of the room with her personal maid Ah Man. She deliberately called a few friends loudly and walked towards the direction where the sound came from. They walked through the courtyard of the temple and saw several guards standing there with serious expressions, as if they were maintaining some kind of order. The monks and pilgrims around were also curious and watching, talking about it.

Zuo Xinyi walked forward and pretended to be ignorant and asked the guard what had happened.
