Yu Wanwan didn't look at the two of them. Since she didn't want to give her daughter any face, she didn't have to give him any face either. Yu Wanwan stood on the stage and began to host the ceremony.
Although she had never hosted a coming-of-age ceremony before, she had been there before, so she naturally knew a little about it. Under Yu Wanwan's supervision, these procedures were completed very quickly. In the end, the one who blessed Yu Yinyin was none other than Madam Li.
Madam Li had many children and a happy family. She could be said to be a person with many children and many blessings, so it was most appropriate for her to add blessings.
After the ceremony was over, everyone was free to move about. Some of the young ladies of the official families saw that Yu Yin 'er had stolen the attention of the men present and were dissatisfied. They wanted to make things difficult for her.
"It's just a flower vase, why can't Young Master Jin take his eyes off it? These men were really animals who only cared about their lower bodies!”The person who spoke was the daughter of the Nation Protecting General, Gu Yunzhi, Gu Qingqing. Her pretty face was so angry that her expression changed. She looked very funny.
The Young Master Jin she was talking about was the eldest son of the First Rank Grand Tutor, Jin Zhixuan, who was known as one of the four young masters of the capital. He was beautiful and eight feet long. He looked like a good young master and had a scholarly aura. He was rated as the man that the young ladies of the capital wanted to marry the most!
"I've long heard that Prime Minister Yu's daughters are all proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Second Young Lady is even known as the number one talented woman in the world. Why don't we hold a banquet today and let all the young ladies and noble ladies present present show their talents, so as to pave the way for the Hundred Flower Banquet that will be held soon!”A man's voice sounded. Everyone looked over and was shocked. They actually didn't notice that this person was present today.
The faces of those who knew the man changed a few times. Yu Yin 'er, who was standing at the side, could not help but feel puzzled and cast a probing gaze at him.
He saw a man in a black brocade robe sitting alone in a corner. His handsome face, which seemed to be carved by a knife, had an evil smile on it. He looked at Yu Yin 'er coldly. Although his eyes were cold, Yu Yin' er could still feel his hostility.
Who was this? Why was he so hostile towards a young lady like her? Yu Yin 'er couldn't help but step back.
"So it's King Yi! Why are you sitting here? Please go to the seat of honor!”Yu Wanwan said loudly when she saw the man from afar. She then walked off the stage and walked to the corner.
Yu Yin 'er followed behind Yu Wanwan, getting closer and closer. She was even more certain of the hostility in King Yi's eyes. Yes, it was indeed hostility towards her, but where did the hostility come from?
"Zhu Huan, have you heard of King Yi's background?”Yu Yinyin's heart sank as she turned to ask Zhu Huan beside her.
Zhu Huan's face turned white as she replied softly,""This Prince Yi, Wei Yunye, is the younger brother of the current Emperor. He is about ten years younger than the Emperor and only seven years older than the First Prince. Many years ago, he had the title of the Cloud Country's War God! It was said that he was a killing machine on the battlefield and had once buried 100,000 prisoners alive!”
"What is it? He actually did this?" Yu Yin 'er couldn't help but cover her heart. What kind of concept was 100,000 people? If it was her, not to mention 100,000 people, even 100 people would not be able to do it.
"That's right. King Yi became famous in that battle and shocked all the countries. That's why he has today's prosperity! That year, King Yi was only fifteen years old! From then on, King Yi handed over his military power and became an idle king! Rumor had it that King Yi was suffering from a hidden illness, which was why he had retreated from the battlefield!”Zhu Huan slowly told him what she knew, but she could not help but tremble. When she saw King Yi's face, her face turned even paler.
"I know!" Yu Yin 'er turned her head to look at Zhu Huan and said lightly. Zhu Huan's behavior today was too strange. Seeing King Yi, she was scared by the rumors.
When Yu Wanwan walked in front of Wei Yunye, Wei Yunye had already stood up. He was more than eight feet tall, and when he stood up, he looked like a high and mighty king overlooking the world. Even Yu Yin 'er could only look up to him.
As he approached, Yu Yin 'er realized that the legendary murderer Demon Wing King was not a burly man, nor was he a fiendish man. On the contrary, not only did he have a handsome face, but his handsome face could be compared to everyone present.
The combination of masculinity and gentleness. When he had an evil smile, he was extremely gentle. However, when his cold gaze came over, it made people feel cold. Yu Yin 'er had never seen anyone who could fuse these contradictory things together. He, Lord Yi, Wei Yunye, was clearly the first!
Whether it was the Master of Life Ending Valley, Nan Ruchen, the handsome Wei Yihan, or the picturesque Young Master Jin, no one was more dazzling than him!
Realizing that she had unknowingly praised King Yi, who was hostile to her, Yu Yin 'er pinched herself hard. Yu Yin 'er, stop!
"Minister Yu, you don't have to be so polite. This king was just passing by to join in the fun. Seeing your daughter so eye-catching, I wanted to see everyone's elegant demeanour and compete with them.”Wei Yunye nodded slightly. He wasn't very polite, but Yu Wanwan could feel his politeness.
"Since King Yi has said so, this minister will naturally not embarrass you!”Yu Wanwan said with a smile. She was still very impressed with this prince in front of her. At least, not everyone could pay such a price for a simple friendship.
"Since mother and King Yi have said so, Yin 'er naturally cannot decline. However, since it is a competition, it is more interesting to have a prize!”Yu Yin 'er was not afraid of Wei Yunye's gaze and said with an innocent smile.
Yu Wanwan nodded slightly in agreement, while Wei Yunye looked at Yu Yin 'er with a deeper gaze.
"What do you want?" Wei Yunye looked up at Yu Yin 'er and asked, but the smile on his lips deepened.
"Yin 'er wants to ask what prize wangye can give!”Yu Yin 'er tilted her head and looked at Wei Yunye innocently.
"That's right! What could the Ninth Imperial Uncle offer?”Wei Yihan, who had been silent, suddenly jumped out and looked at Wei Yunye with the same expression as Yu Yin 'er.
Wei Yunye looked at Wei Yihan. A secret guard had said that his silly nephew had returned to normal, but he was still acting dumb. It was obvious how scheming he was.
"I wonder if this Prince's verbal promise will catch Miss Yu's eye?”Wei Yunye turned to look at Yu Yin 'er, who was interrupted by Wei Yihan's voice. When she heard Wei Yunye's deep voice, she shuddered.
"King Yi is too serious. Not to mention King Yi's verbal promise, even a single strand of his hair is priceless!”Yu Yin 'er said with a hint of flattery. Although she was unwilling to flatter him in her previous life, it did not mean that she did not know how to flatter him!
"Girl, you really know how to talk. If any of the ladies present can come out on top in today's competition, this king will give you a verbal promise. No matter what you want, as long as it's within this king's scope, I will satisfy you!”Wei Yunye said as he walked to the head of the courtyard. His voice was not loud, but everyone could hear him.
Yu Yinyin followed behind without saying a word. She couldn't help but feel that Wei Yihan's sudden words were not good. As a fool, he didn't sit in his seat and eat, but paid attention to her actions. The moment he spoke, it felt like he was protecting his child. Being protected by a fool, this feeling…wasn't bad!
"Alright, I will now announce that the content of the competition will be zither, chess, calligraphy, painting, and free question setting. There were two guqin placed here, and two people would compete in a group. The person at the bottom would lose, and then a new person would take over and continue the competition!”
Yu Wanwan was also very efficient. After her daughter agreed, she began to prepare. After all, someone had prepared it from the beginning, but it was not for the competition, but because someone wanted to make things difficult for Yu Yinyin!
After Yu Wanwan's announcement, someone volunteered to stand up and challenge Yu Yin 'er.
Yu Yin 'er was originally standing below and did not intend to participate in the battle now. After all, she was the one who went in the beginning, and it would really consume a lot of energy.
However, when Zhang Xiuzhi looked at Yu Yin 'er with disdain, Yu Yin' er slowly walked up to the stage.
Everyone thought that Yu Yin 'er would refuse, but they didn't expect her to walk up so leisurely and calmly.
"I know that my zither skills are not good, so I hope that Sister Xiuzhi will show mercy!”Yu Yin 'er walked forward and bowed slightly. She had always been polite before resorting to force, and her face still carried a trace of indifference.
Zhang Xiuzhi heard her words and snorted."Elder Sister will only treat it as showing mercy to Younger Sister. I hope Younger Sister will show your true abilities!”
As everyone knew, this silly girl of the Yu Family was not good at anything. How could she possibly know how to play the zither, go, and calligraphy? This was also the reason why Zhang Xiuzhi dared to challenge Yu Yin 'er. She just wanted to make her presence known among the male guests below. However, the male guests below did not see it that way. The beautiful Yu Yin' er being challenged by Zhang Xiuzhi only made them look down on Zhang Xiuzhi even more.
Even Yu Wanwan looked down on Zhang Xiuzhi, who had challenged her daughter. Her daughter was known to be a fool, and she had challenged a fool. It was really boring!
"Please!" Yu Yin 'er turned her body slightly and said. She had let Zhang Xiuzhi choose first because she didn't want Zhang Xiuzhi to say that it was unfair.
Zhang Xiuzhi didn't stand on ceremony and sat down in front of a zither. It could be seen that the two zither were equally matched, while Yu Yin 'er sat on the other side.
Zhang Xiuzhi began to play the zither. The music was sometimes melodious and sometimes deep. She was familiar with the fingering, and the melodious sound flowed out from her fingertips like water.
The people present were all surprised when they heard it. The music was as natural as a small bridge and flowing water. It was as if they were in an empty mountain after a new rain. They quietly listened to the various sounds in the mountain and their hearts became calm.
