Traveling through the Poisonous Concubine

Yun Yuxi walked up to the stage gracefully, picked up the scroll on the table and gently opened it.

Everyone sighed.

The man in the painting turned out to be the Regent Yan Wuque.

Yan Wuque in the painting has a pair of bright and deep eyes and a calm look that makes people puzzling. He comes on horseback with a handsome figure, showing the demeanor of a king. His handsome face seems to be carved by a knife and an axe, and his whole body exudes dignity and pride, as if the man in the painting is about to ride out on a horse.

"Zimo, this Yun Yuxi, is really surprising. You in the painting are riding a horse right here. Could it be that Yun Yuxi has seen you before? The painting is so lifelike, you in the painting seem to have jumped out of the painting like a real person."

Yan Wuque felt strange. In the painting, he was standing tall and riding a horse. Yan Wuque looked at the wheelchair under him, and his eyes dimmed.

"Girl, what kind of painting method is this? I have never seen it before. With a few simple lines, you can actually outline the majestic figure of the Regent, just like a real person."

Everyone took a deep breath. It turns out that painting can be done this way. Yun Yuxi's painting skills are simply extraordinary.

For a moment, everyone couldn't make up their mind. Lin Jinxiu and Yun Yuxi were equally good, and it was hard to say who was better.

"Your Highness, Princess, gentlemen from the six ministries, the dean, and all the young masters and ladies, I think the winner of this competition should be me, Yun Yuxi." Everyone admired Yun Yuxi's courage.

"Girl, tell us and see if you can convince everyone," said the dean Yuwen Huai. The eldest princess and the ministers of the six ministries also nodded.

Yun Yuxi walked to the front of Lin Jinxiu's painting, pointed at the plum blossoms on the painting, and said, "Please look, everyone. As we all know, the proud plum blossoms do not have upward-facing flowers. Everyone has seen plum blossoms. Am I right?"

Everyone was surprised and said, "This second young lady of the Xiangfu is really amazing. She has such subtle observations. It seems that the daughter of the Minister of Rites deserved to lose today."

Lin Jinxiu's eyes instantly turned red, and she was speechless. She collected her thoughts and said, "Jinxiu is grateful for your advice. Thank you, Second Miss, for your guidance."

“I think all the noble ladies today have good talents. Although none of them won the first prize, I still have other rewards. I will give Lingxi, the eldest daughter of the prime minister’s mansion, Yun Ruyan, and the daughter of the Minister of Rites, Lin Jinxiu, 10 eastern pearls each and a set of head ornaments. The other noble ladies participating in the talent competition will receive 5 eastern pearls,” said the eldest princess generously.

All the noble ladies bowed in gratitude.

"Come to me, girl. You won the first prize today. These four prizes belong to you. Please keep them well." The princess said with a warm smile.

"Thank you, Your Highness. Thank you all, my Lords. Thank you, Dean." Yun Yuxi thanked happily.

"Girl, where did you get that painting brush? I'm very interested. What's your painting method called?"

Yu Wenhuai was like a curious baby, asking this and that. Yun Yuxi said cunningly, "Grandpa Dean, guess," and then laughed.

"Since the girl calls me grandpa, can you give me one of these pen? I am very interested in it," the dean said with a smile.

Everyone asked Yun Yuxi for carbon pens. Yun Yuxi felt that a business opportunity had come, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, everyone. Today I will only bring one to give to the dean. If you like the kind of pen I have, I will sell it in my shop in Kyoto in a month. One pen is only one or two taels of silver."

"This girl is such a profiteer. Doesn't she know that one tael of silver is enough for an ordinary family to live for two months?" Jing Zichu complained in his heart.
