Oops, the princess is surrounded by the male protagonists

"Well, it seems that the original owner really doesn't love any man except Prince Chenyun. She falls in love with every other man she meets!"

Bai Yue picked up a piece of exquisite dessert and put it into her mouth leisurely.

The couple were stunned when they saw her sitting in the middle seat, especially Chu Xingyu, who had a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Miss Su, young marquis, this is Crown Princess Chenyun, a distinguished guest specially invited by my old lady."

The servant hurried forward and introduced the two people.

"Hello!"

Bai Yue waved at the two of them and greeted them casually.

"Your humble servant Su Mengqi greets the Crown Princess!"

After being stunned, Su Mengqi quickly bowed with a graceful demeanor, like a blooming white lotus.

Chu Xingyu's eyes were like a frozen lake. The good impression he had when they first met gradually froze into deep disgust.

A hint of disdain appeared on the corner of his mouth. He turned to the servant beside him and snorted in a cold voice.

"Is Madam Lin's eyes blurring with age? How could a woman like this actually be worthy of being called a distinguished guest?"

Seeing Chu Xingyu's unfriendly expression, the servant hurriedly lowered his head and explained carefully.

"Young Marquis, calm down. This was indeed arranged by the old lady herself. I am only following orders and dare not disobey in the slightest."

After hearing this, Chu Xingyu frowned, seeming extremely dissatisfied with this arrangement, while Su Mengqi approached him and gently advised him.

"Xingyu, the poetry gathering is about to begin. Let's sit down quickly and don't keep everyone waiting!"

Su Mengqi's gentle voice was like a spring breeze, instantly dissipating most of Chu Xingyu's anger.

He sighed helplessly, and finally sat down reluctantly after being persuaded by the other party.

"Attention, players! Chu Xingyu's favorability has dropped by 5 points. It seems you need to work harder to win his heart!"

In Bai Yue's mind, Xiao 1 was reminding her frantically.

"Why win his heart? Don't you see that his heart is firmly in the palm of that girl's hand?"

Bai Yue took a sip of tea, obviously not wanting to interfere in other people's relationships.

"Player, where's your competitive spirit? Watching your capture target get seduced away by another woman, don't you feel itchy?"

"Hey, could you put down the snacks in your hand for a moment? You've almost finished the whole plate in just a short while!"

Xiao 1 was complaining crazily in Bai Yue's mind, but Bai Yue was still leisurely and continued her "food journey".

But her leisure seemed so out of place in the eyes of others. Just when everyone was indignant, a beautiful middle-aged woman dressed in gorgeous clothes stepped into the attic gracefully like a blooming peony.

"Meet Madam Qi!"

When everyone saw her coming, they stood up and saluted respectfully. The beautiful woman smiled and nodded to them, then walked to the top.

"Meet Madam Qi!"

Su Mengqi stood up first and bowed deeply to her. Chu Xingyu also nodded in salute, the respect on his face was self-evident.

"Meet Madam Qi!"

Seeing that everyone was so respectful to Madam Qi, Bai Yue also stood up and saluted with a smile.

But Madam Qi simply bowed deeply to her and spoke with a voice full of respect.

"Greetings to Her Royal Highness Crown Princess Chenyun!"

Mrs. Qi's actions shocked everyone in the room, and she continued.

"I am deeply honored to have the Crown Princess visit my humble home today. I have long heard that the princesses of the Hundred Flowers Kingdom are both talented and beautiful, unparalleled in the world. If I could receive the Crown Princess's guidance at today's poetry gathering, it would be a great honor!"

"Shouldn't we give Madam Qi a heads-up? The phrase "outstanding talent and beauty" only refers to the first two princesses. This third princess has absolutely nothing to do with the phrase "both talented and beautiful"!"

"That's right! Madam Qi is probably too busy writing her beautiful articles to care about world affairs, so she was fooled by the title of Princess Chenyun of Baihua Country!"

"Why would we invite such a vulgar and rude woman to our poetry club? It's because she comes from such a good family that even Madam Qi was deceived by her!"

When everyone heard what Madam Qi said, they thought that the Duke of Qi's Mansion was probably fooled by the title of Princess of Baihua Country. However, Bai Yue glanced at Madam Qi, who seemed humble but actually cunning, and smiled nonchalantly.

"No, no, I'm actually the worst talent in our Baihua Country. I'm fortunate enough to be participating in this poetry gathering today, simply to appreciate the talent and elegance of the talented scholars and beautiful women of Wulie Country!"

When the people around heard Bai Yue claim that he had the worst qualifications, they couldn't help but sneer at him, but Mrs. Qi frowned slightly, as she didn't expect the other party to be so self-deprecating.

"Ma'am, can we begin?"

At this time, a servant walked up to Madam Qi and asked in a low voice, but after the other party nodded, the servant announced loudly to the whole audience.

"Gentlemen, today's poetry gathering has no specific theme. I ask that you all follow your heart and share the treasured poems in your heart so that we can all appreciate their splendor together."

“No title, that’s great!”

Everyone present came here to show off their talents. When they heard that there was no restriction on the topic, they began to write one after another, vowing to compete for the first place in this poetry meeting.

"Mengqi, after tasting the fragrant tea I gave you the other day, did you find it delicious and lingering?"

Chu Xingyu smiled and spoke softly to Su Mengqi beside him as if no one was around.

"Mm, those fragrant teas are truly exquisite. Xingyu, thank you!"

Su Mengqi's smile made Chu Xingyu's heart seem to be pulled by an invisible thread, and he couldn't help but move a little closer to her.

"Hey, player, you're really enjoying eating this dog food. Shouldn't you do something to divert Chu Xingyu's attention to you?"

Facing Bai Yue who was watching the interaction between Su Mengqi and Chu Xingyu with great interest, Xiao 1 complained dissatisfiedly.

"Why are you transferring it to me? They're in love and affection, am I asking for trouble if I get involved?"

Bai Yue shrugged indifferently, obviously having no interest in conquering Chu Xingyu.

"...555, Xiao1 is so sad, Xiao1 wants to shut himself off!"

Just as Xiao 1 was muttering to Bai Yue, someone in the room suddenly spoke loudly to Chu Xingyu and the other person who were having an intimate conversation.

"Young Marquis, Miss Su, I wonder if you would be so kind as to attend this grand event today and allow us, the common people, to appreciate your elegance and grace."

"That's right, these two talented men and beautiful women will surely create something amazing that will open our eyes!"

Everyone in the room echoed, their eyes moving between Su Mengqi and Chu Xingyu, as if expecting this perfect couple to bring them an auditory feast.

"Well, then I'll show off my ugliness!"

Su Mengqi stood up gracefully, her eyes gently sweeping out the window. After thinking for a moment, she couldn't help but hum softly.

"The water mirrors the sky, and the breeze rustles the willows and poplars."

"Fish play in the shallows, and egrets skim the waves."

After Su Mengqi finished reading, she smiled at everyone, and after savoring it for a while, everyone rushed to praise her.

"Miss Su is truly a literary leader, worthy of her reputation! This poem, like the beautiful scenery of the lake and mountains before us, perfectly blends into every delicate scene in this world!"

"Indeed, looking around, the lake and the mountains complement each other beautifully, and Miss Su's poem, like the gentle breeze, adds a unique charm to this scene!"

Amidst everyone's admiration, the atmosphere reached a climax, and Chu Xingyu walked to Su Mengqi and began to recite softly.

"The lake mirrors the sky, and the mind follows the waves."

"My thoughts are as far away as the clouds, and my aspirations are as cold as the moon."

"As expected of the young marquis, this artistic conception is as profound and lofty as the sky, far beyond the reach of us mortals!"

"That's right, the young marquis is not only the son of a general, but also a poet of many beautiful poems. He is truly a pillar of the country and is truly admirable!"

Facing the compliments from the people in the room, Chu Xingyu felt nothing at all. He just stared at Su Mengqi, as if waiting for her praise.

"Xingyu, your poetry is getting better and better. I'm afraid I'll be ashamed of myself in the future!"

Su Mengqi felt a little embarrassed when Chu Xingyu stared at her. She lowered her head and spoke timidly.

"Mengqi, please stop talking nonsense. How can my literary talent possibly compare to yours? When I have some free time later, can I invite you to... chat about poetry?"

"I'm afraid that won't work. Daddy recently told me not to stay away from home. From what he said, it seems like he has other plans for me!"

There was a hint of helplessness in Su Mengqi's voice, and her originally bright eyes became a little dim at this moment.

"Mengqi, are you worried about entering the palace? Don't worry, I'm here..."

Chu Xingyu was about to give the other party a firm promise, but when he saw Bai Yue staring at them intently, he couldn't help but frown and scolded with a hint of displeasure in his tone.

"Hey, what are you looking at there?"

"What are you watching? A play, of course?"

Bai Yue muttered to herself as she picked up a snack and said perfunctorily.

"I simply feel that the young marquis and Miss Su are a perfect match made in heaven. Those scoundrels who are trying to separate you are as worthless as pigs and dogs!"

"Oh?"

A hint of doubt flashed in Chu Xingyu's eyes. He glanced at Bai Yue, as if trying to find out her true intentions.

"But didn't you once tell me that Meng Qi and I are not a good match, and that you are my destiny?"

"Haha, I had just had an argument with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and I was in a bad mood, so when I saw the young marquis and Miss Su were so close, I just made a joke."

When Bai Yue heard what Chu Xingyu said, she almost spit out the snack in her mouth. She couldn't help but sigh that the original owner was really weird, saying anything when she saw a handsome man.

"Princess, Xingyu and I are just friends. How can we be considered a good match?"

Su Mengqi suddenly spoke in a serious tone, while Chu Xingyu's eyes flashed with panic, and he hurriedly explained.

"Mengqi, you should know my feelings..."

"Xingyu, nothing in this world can be fulfilled just as you and I wish..."

Su Mengqi sighed softly, a hint of helplessness revealed in her words.

"Are you worried about His Majesty? Don't worry, he..."

"Well, Miss Su, Young Marquis, today we are here for a poetry gathering. We can discuss our friendship in private."

Just when Chu Xingyu was eager to express his feelings, Mrs. Qi appeared beside them and reminded them softly.

"Mrs. Qi, I'm so sorry..."

Su Mengqi returned to her seat with a look of shame on her face, while Chu Xingyu looked at the amused looks of the people around him, and could not help but quickly walk up to Bai Yue, staring down at her and growling angrily.

"What a vicious woman! Were those words you just said deliberately designed to embarrass Meng Qi and me in public?"

"Shame on you? What's so shameful about this? Could it be that your feelings for Miss Su are so shameful that you can't show them to others?"

Bai Yue looked at Chu Xingyu and said calmly.

"How can this be! My feelings for Meng Qi are like the bright moon shining on the river, there's no need to hide them!"

Chu Xingyu's face froze when he heard this, and he hurriedly explained.

"Oh, if that's the case, then don't overthink it. Love needs to be open and honest!"

Bai Yue looked at the other person and smiled harmlessly.

"So this is why you stopped me from confessing my feelings last year. Your way of expressing love is to be open and honest without any care?"

Chu Xingyu stared at Bai Yue's smiling face for a while, then suddenly asked with ill intention.

"...Young Marquis, what happened last year was truly an accident. I promise I have absolutely no improper thoughts about you!"

"Humph, who do you think cares about your extravagant thoughts? Who are you pretending to be for?"

Chu Xingyu sat back in his seat with a grim face, and Xiao 1, who said he was going to be autistic, suddenly announced excitedly.

"Congratulations, player! Chu Xingyu's favorability towards you has increased by 2 points. I told you there's nothing wrong with you. It's only been a short time, and you've already attracted Chu Xingyu's attention!"

"Ah, getting scolded is also called attracting attention? Xiaoyi, you don't think I have any special hobbies!"

Bai Yue picked up another piece of dessert with a helpless look on her face, and Su Mengqi looked at Chu Xingyu, whose attention had apparently shifted to Bai Yue, and a hint of gloom flashed in her eyes.
