Reborn Empress: The World Originally Belonged to Her

In the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Xu Jinxin is secretly plotting something.

It seems that Qin Yu has been harassed by Cheng Qixia recently, but Qin Yu has been ignoring her.

Xu Jinxin gently tapped the table with her slender fingers.

"Ya'er, what do you think of me organizing a poetry competition?"

Upon hearing Xu Jinxin's words, the maid beside her nodded slightly.

"If Miss wants to hold it, I think it's feasible. Everything should be based on Miss's happiness."

Although the purpose of holding the poetry competition was not the poetry competition itself, but Qin Yu.

Xu Jinxin smiled slightly.

However, this matter still needs to be discussed with others.

Xu Jinxin sent someone to inform the famous students in Kyoto.

Shangguan Mufeng had already heard of Xu Jinxin, but he never expected to see her in person and thought she was extremely beautiful.

While she wouldn't be described as stunningly beautiful, she was certainly a girl from a modest family.

"It would be my honor to one day be able to see Miss Xu's face."

Upon hearing this, Xu Jinxin looked up at the scholar in front of her.

"What do you mean by this, scholar?"

"What I mean is that Miss Xu's appearance is that of a celestial being."

Xu Jinxin covered her mouth and chuckled, unable to resist teasing the scholar.

"You're quite the smooth talker. What's your name?"

Looking at the white-robed scholar before her, with a green bamboo jade pendant hanging at his waist, his features were delicate and his speech extremely polite, which won her heart.

Unfortunately, Xu Jinxin already has someone in her heart, and now she can only admire him.

"Miss Xu, have you only invited me this time?"

Xu Jinxin smiled and said, "The invitation was naturally extended only by you, Young Master. There were other people as well, but you were the first to arrive."

Upon seeing this young master arrive, having stood here for so long, they hurriedly greeted him.

"Are you blind? Quickly offer them seats! If you neglect our guests, we'll hold you accountable!"

"Miss Xu, it's alright!"

Looking at the gentle and refined scholar in front of her, Xu Jinxin couldn't help but think.

If Qin Yu were to see this scholar, what would Qin Yu do?

Just then, Xu Jinxin's mother arrived and saw the scene before her, feeling puzzled.

"Xin'er, what are you doing?"

Upon hearing what her mother said, Xu Jinxin hurriedly went to her mother's side.

"Mother, I want to hold a poetry competition and invite all the scholars over in advance to discuss it."

Xu Jinxin took her mother's arm and spoke softly.

"So that's how it is. Does your father know about this?"

"Father is busy with important matters of the court, so how could he care about his daughter's affairs? But when Father returns, I will certainly go and tell him about it."

Xu Jinxin's mother glanced at Xu Jinxin with some concern, "If that's the case, then you should discuss it with them. I won't bother you."

After her mother left, Xu Jinxin turned her gaze back to the scholar from before.

"I'm so sorry, just now..."

"Miss Xu, there's no need to apologize. I understand."

In no time, more than a dozen scholars arrived.

Suddenly, I saw a young man with peach blossom eyes. He was extremely handsome when he smiled, and there was a hint of spirituality between his brows.

"Young master, may I ask what your surname is?"

Xu Jinxin took the initiative to greet the scholar in front of her.

My name is Lin Bai.

"So it's Young Master Lin. Young Master Lin is indeed handsome. If this face were a woman, she would probably be an absolute beauty."

Being praised like this suddenly made Lin Bai feel a little embarrassed for a moment.

"Miss Xu, what are you saying? I am not even one ten-thousandth as good as you."

It must be said that these people are really good at praising others.

"Now let's get down to business! The reason I invited you all to the Prime Minister's residence is to hold a poetry competition in three days. At that time, I will invite the Princess to the residence."

At that moment, Shangguan Mufeng realized that Xu Jinxin's target should at least be the Eldest Princess, right?

"As you all know, the Princess has already expelled the consort from her residence, and there is no longer a consort in the Princess's residence."

"I know perfectly well that the Princess's residence does not have a consort. Does Miss Xu mean to make us all..."

Even if the person hadn't said it, most people could have guessed what he was about to say.

“My cousin has reached a certain age, and as her younger cousin, I must consider her needs. As I was chatting with you all just now, I can tell that you are all quite eloquent. Perhaps my cousin will become interested in you all, and who knows, one of you might become the princess’s consort.”

A young man dressed in a blue robe stood up, a hint of mockery on his face.

"Even if I were to marry an old woman in the market, I would never have any interest in this princess."

When this young master said this, the other young masters all began to echo him.

"I've heard that this princess is extremely skilled in martial arts; she's probably not a tomboy."

The reason this prince consort has been driven out is simply because he doesn't like her.

It's perfectly normal for someone to get angry and kick someone out like that.

"Yes, I think this princess performance was definitely terrible, not even a third as good as Miss Xu's."

They were all saying these things, constantly belittling Qin Yu, which made Xu Jinxin feel happy.

In the eldest princess's mansion.

Qin Yu couldn't help but sneeze. "I have a feeling that someone is talking badly about me behind my back?"

Chunfeng and Yuzhu were a little confused. "Your Highness, are you sure it's not a cold?"

"Not yet."

At this moment, a servant was standing outside the Princess's residence.

He stepped forward and gently knocked on the door in front of him.

The guards suddenly heard a knock on the door and opened it.

When he saw this person, he felt a little doubtful.

"Who are you, and what brings you to the Princess's residence?"

"Your Excellency, it was Miss Xu from the Prime Minister's residence who sent me here to deliver an invitation to the Princess."

The guards were a little suspicious, but they still let the man in.

Qin Yu was practicing his swordplay in the courtyard. The first move was "Worshiping the Moon Hook," a sword technique he created himself!

Suddenly, they heard footsteps. Turning around, they saw the guard leading a servant.

Qin Yu slung the sword behind her back and said coldly, "Who are you? What brings you to my residence?"

"Greetings to Your Highness. I am a servant in the Prime Minister's residence and I am here on Miss Xu's orders to deliver the invitation to Your Highness."

Invitation? Qin Yu was quite puzzled. What was this?

The servant took out the invitation and said respectfully, "Please take a look, Your Highness."
