Oops, the princess is surrounded by the male protagonists

"Okay, it's a deal. If I win first place, you will change into women's clothes and go on the beauty pageant stage to dazzle everyone!"

Bai Yue nodded, as if taking Young Master Tang's words as a challenge to her.

"Haha, are you making a bet with me, Princess? But since it's a bet, wouldn't it be fair if both parties had a stake..."

Young Master Tang deliberately dragged out the last syllable, a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes, and then his gaze gently rippled on Bai Yue like spring water, with a bit of self-evident teasing.

"Oh, what's the prize?"

"Oh, it's very simple. If Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess doesn't take first place, then she will have to spend the night with a mortal like me. I will have the honor of appreciating Her Royal Highness's elegance!"

Although there was a hint of frivolity in Mr. Tang's words, coupled with his exquisitely carved face, he did not look vulgar at all, but instead added a bit of indescribable charm.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. I believe I have extraordinary skills. If Your Highness joins me, I will definitely let you experience the feeling of floating in ecstasy and boundless bliss!"

The other party stared at Bai Yue without blinking and said, but Bai Yue was unmoved and just replied in a flat tone.

"Okay, if I don't get first place today, I'm willing to spend the whole night with you!"

"Okay, words are not enough, we need to put it in writing to show our sincerity!"

When the other party heard this, an impatient gleam flashed in his eyes. He flashed to the side of the eunuch who was taking notes, snatched the paper and pen with swift movements, and wrote down the bet in one go.

"Then I would like to trouble Your Highness, the Crown Princess, to leave your name on this contract."

Young Master Tang gently handed the paper with wet ink to Bai Yue, with a playful glint in his eyes.

Bai Yue's eyes swept across the three words "Tang Xinyi" on the paper and she couldn't help but chuckle.

"Tang Xinyi? Oh, your name really suits your appearance!"

As she spoke, she gracefully picked up the pen and signed her name smoothly.

"Oh? Since Your Highness appreciates me so much, don't forget to call my name a few more times when you are under me tonight!"

Tang Xinyi smiled evilly, and there was a hint of teasing in her words.

Just when the atmosphere was delicate, a graceful and handsome man walked in slowly, his eyes fell gently on Bai Yue, and he interrupted softly.

"Excuse me, since this is a gambling game, does it matter if there's one more participant?"

"Gu Yuanchao, are you going to become my enemy and bet on the Crown Princess's victory?"

When Tang Xinyi saw the person coming, she frowned slightly and her tone was a little unhappy.

"No, this time I intend to fight alongside Young Master Tang and make this bet with the Crown Princess."

Gu Yuanchao looked determined as he turned to Bai Yue and bowed.

"Your Highness, I am Gu Yuanchao of the Sinan Marquis's Mansion. I would like to add another bet with you. The stakes are naturally the same as those of Young Marquis Tang. If you win the crown, I am willing to wear women's clothing and participate in the beauty pageant. Conversely, if you lose, please grant me a night of your company."

"In that case, how could I miss this bet?"

A handsome man in tight-fitting clothes, with a stern and heroic look between his brows, strode up to Bai Yue and said with a bow.

"My name is Luo Hongyi. My father is the Marquis of Anle. I hope to join this gambling game with the Crown Princess. The stakes? Of course, they will be exactly the same as those of these two gentlemen!"

"Oh, young Marquis Luo, you're so quick! Why are you here in this muddy water?"

When Tang Xinyi saw Luo Hongyi, a cunning look flashed in her eyes and she joked with a smile.

"Haha, I finally have the chance to be intimate with the celestial Princess Chenyun. How could I let her go so easily?"

Luo Hongyi smiled heartily, with a provocative glint in his eyes.

As soon as he finished speaking, the young masters of the noble families who were originally hesitant, as if inspired by an invisible force, rushed forward and surrounded Bai Yue, vying to join this unique gambling game.

Seeing this, Bai Yue was not afraid at all. Instead, she jumped lightly and landed steadily on the long registration table. She looked down at the group of men who were eager to try and announced loudly.

"Alright! Anyone interested in a bet with me, Bai Yue, should sign a written agreement immediately and present it to me later. Once I, Bai Yue, have spoken, it's irrevocable. No matter who it is, I will accept the challenge without hesitation!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the audience immediately became excited, and the young men from aristocratic families all took action. Some hurriedly searched for paper and pen, while others simply ran straight to the beauty pageant registration office on the south side and forcibly "borrowed" pens and ink, for fear of missing out on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Their actions, like a sudden storm, quickly swept across the entire open space, attracting the attention of the surrounding people. Soon, the news of Bai Yue's bet with the young masters of the aristocratic families spread like wildfire in this bustling open space, becoming the focus of everyone's heated discussion.

At this time, under the beauty pageant stands on the south side, a girl with a face as white as porcelain, with curiosity and shyness flashing in her eyes, gently tugged at the sleeve of a contestant next to her and asked in a voice as thin as a mosquito.

"Sister, I have a question for you. I heard that beauty pageants always attract countless princes and nobles to watch, but why are there only middle-aged officials here? Where are all the princes and nobles?"

"Well, maybe there's a hunting competition going on in the north, so all the princes and nobles are going to participate in it!"

The girl being asked was actually quite puzzled, and just as she finished speaking, an elegant girl snorted coldly, as if she wanted to pour out all her resentment.

"Hmph, what kind of hunting competition is this? It was that slut, Crown Princess Chenyun, who actually used her body as a bet and then seduced those young masters into making a ridiculous bet with her. Now everyone is attracted to her worldly aura. It really makes me hate her so much just thinking about it!"

"Yeah, this woman is truly despicable. To win the favor of those gentlemen, she actually signed up for a hunting competition and even boasted about winning first place!"

"I think she's afraid of failing the beauty pageant, so she wants to use this method to attract the attention of those princes and nobles!"

After the elegant girl finished speaking, the women around her joined in the conversation and expressed their disdain for Bai Yue's behavior.

A gentle-looking woman patted the elegant woman's hand, then turned to the crowd and said with a smile.

"Sisters, don't worry. How can a man who can be easily deceived by such a woman be a gentleman worthy of trust? I firmly believe that the four great sons of Wu Lie will not be moved by such vulgar things."

"The Four Young Masters? Oh, who are they?"

The girl who had just asked the question had a hint of confusion and curiosity in her eyes when she heard this.

"These four young masters are well-known figures in our capital!"

When a girl heard this, her eyes suddenly flashed with admiration.

"Let's start with Young Master Tang Xinyi of the Xinjian Marquisate. He has skin as white as snow and a gorgeous appearance. Some women feel inferior to him. What's even more rare is that he is particularly good at pleasing girls. I don't know how many girls have fallen in love with him, and even want to marry him as a concubine."

"Then there's Young Master Gu Yuanchao of the Sinan Marquis's Mansion. He's a brilliant writer, eloquent and even won the title of Third Place in the Imperial Examination a while ago. He's so handsome and elegant, like a gentle breeze in a bamboo forest, unforgettable!"

"There's also the young Marquis Luo Hongyi of the Anle Marquisate. He has sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and is very heroic. Although he sometimes appears bold and unruly, his romantic charm is also unique."

"As for the young Marquis Chu Xingyu of the Zhenguo Marquisate, he is an absolute beauty rarely seen in this world. He is handsome and looks like an immortal who has descended to earth. In addition, he is both civil and military, with both talent and martial arts. He is definitely the best among these four young masters, leaving the others far behind!"

After the girl finished her introduction, most of the women's eyes sparkled with infinite longing for the four young masters. Perhaps they had transformed into the most gorgeous flowers in spring, quietly blooming in their hearts without them realizing it.

Just as everyone was fantasizing, several young men from aristocratic families dressed in gorgeous clothes strolled up to them, leisurely waving exquisite folding fans.

Their arrival was like a breeze blowing across the lake, which instantly silenced the women who were originally whispering. They all adjusted their posture and sat upright, fearing that their unintentional actions would be misunderstood as impoliteness.

"Hey, why are you guys still sitting here leisurely? The north stands are bustling with activity right now. Don't you want to go and take a look?"

A young man from an aristocratic family who was also dressed elegantly asked in surprise when he saw these people.

"Isn't there a hunting competition in the north? A bunch of smelly men, what's so interesting about it!"

Hearing this, those people shook their heads slightly, with a glint of indifference in their eyes.

"Well, it looks like you guys just arrived. Right now in the north stands, Chu Xingyu, Tang Xinyi, Gu Haichao, and Luo Hongyi are arguing fiercely over Crown Princess Chenyun. It's such a good show, why don't you go over and take a look?"

The speaker's eyes sparkled with excitement, and his tone was full of anticipation.

"Ah? For the Crown Princess Chenyun, this is really strange. Aren't these four people always popular with women? Why are they quarreling over a hostage concubine now?"

Several young masters from aristocratic families looked at each other, with a hint of disbelief in their eyes.

"Haha, the entanglement here is more exciting than any drama script. After you go and watch it, you will know the reason!"

After the man finished speaking, he rushed towards the high platform in the north impatiently, his back full of eagerness for the show that was about to begin.

The remaining few people's interest in the beauty pageant in the south was instantly replaced by the changing situation in the north. They also hurried their pace, as if they didn't want to miss the fun happening in the north.

"Um, isn't that the name that person just mentioned the 'Four Young Masters' that the sisters just mentioned?"

As the backs of the group of men gradually disappeared into the distance, the girls, who had been as quiet as water, suddenly became excited, like a swarm of bees disturbed in spring, chirping and bustling.

"From what he said, could it be that one of the young masters has been bewitched by that slut, causing the other three young masters to point fingers and sneer at him?"

"Well, that's impossible. These four are all decent gentlemen. How could they be deceived by such a whore? They must be disgusted by her behavior, so let's denounce this slut together!"

The girls talked about it in a flurry, as if they couldn't believe that these four outstanding men would fall for a woman like Bai Yue.

And under the north stands, a storm was quietly brewing. Chu Xingyu's figure was like a reef in the raging waves. He glared at Tang Xinyi, and his voice was filled with uncontrollable anger.

"Tang Xinyi, you are the one who instigated this gambling game? Don't you think your actions are too despicable to actually make such an unbearable request?"

Tang Xinyi chuckled, a playful arc appearing at the corner of her mouth.

"Oh? Is it unbearable? As the saying goes, 'A beautiful lady is a gentleman's dream'. As a gentleman, I naturally admire a beauty like the Crown Princess. What's wrong with that?"

"Besides"

Tang Xinyi changed the subject and glanced at Gu Haichao and Luo Hongyi standing beside her.

"Didn't these two also make a bet with the Crown Princess? If you're truly dissatisfied, why not ask them what they're thinking?"

"My admiration for the Crown Princess stems from her brilliant talent displayed at the Qiguogong Mansion's poetry gathering. This time, I simply wanted to take this opportunity to learn a few things from her. I have no other motives."

Upon hearing this, Gu Haichao looked serious and spoke slowly.

When Tang Xinyi heard this, a hint of sarcasm appeared on her lips.

"Oh? If that's the case, why not give me your chance that night? I'll make love with the Crown Princess for you, and you can listen to our pleasures and ask for advice on poetry. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Gu Haichao's face darkened and he snorted coldly.

"Hmph, don't bother. I will ask the Crown Princess for advice on poetry and prose in bed. There's no need for you, Young Master Tang, to intervene!"

Tang Xinyi sneered in response, her words full of sarcasm.

"Humph, you sound very high-sounding, but in reality you're just coveting my body!"

The undercurrent between the two added an unspeakable ambiguity and tension to this conversation.

"I, Luo Hongyi, am curious about what it's like to be the princess consort of this fairy who has descended to earth. I just want her body. Now that I have the chance, I naturally won't let it go!"

Luo Hongyi spoke bluntly, with an unruly light in his eyes.

Chu Xingyu's face turned pale when he heard this and he shouted angrily.

"You are so shameless! You have tarnished the honor of our noble family! Hurry, cancel this ridiculous bet, otherwise..."

His words stopped abruptly because he found that he was in no position to threaten or dissuade these people.

At this awkward moment, Tang Xinyi interrupted with a hint of joking.

"Young Marquis Chu, what are you talking about? The Crown Princess has already agreed, so why are you so anxious? Could it be... are you afraid that after seeing how good we are, the Crown Princess will outdo you?"
