The secrets of the government behind the scenes are revealed, and all the villains are on their knee

The moment she put down her pen, everyone's eyes fell on the words that the palace maid picked up. The handwriting was elegant yet powerful, neat and flawless. It was indeed a rare piece of good handwriting.

Concubine Chan couldn't let it go and praised Lin Xue highly. After praising her, she didn't forget to make fun of Lin You.

"Sister, you and Miss Lin Xue are both from the Protector General's Mansion. I think you are both good at music, chess, calligraphy and painting, right?"

Lin You took a sip of tea and looked at Concubine Chan with a charming smile, "The younger sister is the daughter of the Duke's Mansion who grew up pampered. I'm sure her handwriting must be much better than Miss Lin Xue's. Otherwise, how about showing off your handwriting so that I can feast my eyes on it?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the smile on Concubine Chan's face froze, and she clenched the hand that was holding Lin Xue's hand tightly.

Stay calm, stay calm, don't fall into this vicious woman's trap again.

She slowly loosened her hand that was holding the calligraphy and smiled softly, "Sister, please don't make fun of me. Today is my birthday party. We can't put the cart before the horse. If you want to see my calligraphy, please do it another day."

Lin You had a sneer on his face and didn't continue arguing with her.

At this time, Lin Xue interrupted, "My queen, I have learned a new song in recent days. How about I perform another song for you?"

"Of course I want it. The best gift I received for today's birthday banquet is Miss Lin Xue. I can get a good handwriting and listen to a beautiful zither. Miss Lin Xue is indeed a recognized talented woman in Shengjing. It is a blessing for the Protector General's Mansion to have a legitimate daughter like you."

The more they talked about it, the more wrong it felt. Everyone couldn't help but glance at Lin You cautiously.

This is obviously a mockery of Lin You, saying that Lin You has no talent, is vulgar, and is a stain on the General's Mansion, while Lin Xue is the blessing of the General's Mansion.

[Haha, praise me, praise me. The more you praise me, the more miserable your death will be. I will just sit and wait to see how you two will fight each other in the end! ]

Shen Xian raised his eyebrows. Dog bites dog. Does this mean that Lin Xue and Chan Fei are enemies?

He was looking forward to that, too.

"You are too kind, Concubine Chan. The only legitimate daughter of our Protector of the Nation General's Mansion is Concubine Gui. Lin Xue is just fostered in the General's Mansion. As for blessings, I think that having Concubine Gui as a daughter is the blessing that our entire family has cultivated for three lifetimes."

Just when the atmosphere was heavy, Lian, who had been sitting silently, spoke. Every word he said was powerful and clearly heard by everyone.

Lin Xue's face suddenly turned the color of liver, and she felt extremely embarrassed.

She lowered her head slightly, hatred surging in her eyes.

She never expected that Lian would slap her in the face under such circumstances.

It's really cruel to the extreme.

After all, she is her daughter whom she has raised for more than ten years!

How could she be so cruel!

Concubine Chan also had an unpleasant expression on her face. She had never expected that Lian would say such blunt words.

She had clearly inquired about it and found out that Lian liked Lin Xue more than her blood relative Lin You. How come now, it seemed that this was not the case at all!

Lin You, who was sipping tea, was also stunned when he heard this.

[No way, Tongzi, Lian is actually speaking for me? She even said that I am the result of the blessings of the general's family for three generations? ]

[Yes, host, you heard it right! ]

[Conspiracy, this must be a conspiracy, how could the Lian family be so good! ]

Lian...

Alas, it was her fault. She was blinded by greed and treated Xiaoyou, her own daughter, coldly, which made her feel traumatized by herself.

"Since Miss Lin Xue's piano skills are so good, why don't you play more until everyone has had enough, and then leave."

Lin You uttered these words slowly, and Lin Xue's expression froze immediately.

The palace maids had already taken out the finest zither, and Lin Xue could only go forward as she was told.

She hated the feeling of being suppressed by Lin You using his identity. Obviously, she should be the one being suppressed by his identity, not Lin You as a pawn!

When she becomes the queen in the future, she will repay Lin You and Lian's humiliation a thousand fold.

She will slowly kill them and make their lives worse than death!

"It seems that Miss Lin Xue hates someone. She is so angry when playing the piano."

The song had just started when the graceful and noble woman said this in a faint voice, and the crowd with frowns on their faces also started talking.

Lin Xue was stared at strangely by everyone and had no choice but to stop, looking extremely unhappy.

She pursed her lips tightly, as if she was bullied by everyone and felt very aggrieved.

"The most taboo thing when playing the piano is your state of mind. Otherwise, even the best music will be disrupted. As a talented woman, don't you know this?" Lin You curled his lips in a sneer.

Lin Xue's eyes froze, and she looked at Lin You in surprise.

How could a peasant like Lin You know all this?

Lin Xue took a deep breath and bowed, "Sorry, I was just too impatient."

No matter how well Lin You understood, what she said was indeed right, so she could only lower her head, adjust her mentality, and sit back in her seat.

After the song ended, everyone's expressions were not as ugly as before.

but……

"What are you playing? It's as tight as the strings of your guitar. It sounds terrible."

Hao Jiaojiao hunched her waist and pouted, as if her ears had been insulted.

But Lin Xue thought she played very well, so she retorted: "Ms. Hao, my level is the same as usual, or even better than usual. The music official's evaluation of me before was already third-rate, but Miss Hao is now so derogatory. Are you questioning the music official?"

She is the legitimate daughter of the General Protector of the Nation and a talented woman in Shengjing. However, not everyone can bully her or control her.

"When did I question the music officer? I just..."

"Well, today is Concubine Chan's birthday banquet, not the place for Miss Hao to act as she pleases."

A gentle but cold voice came from above. Hao Jiaojiao and Lin Xue looked over and saw that Shen Yu looked impatient.

A tender smile suddenly appeared in Lin Xue's eyes, and when she glanced at Hao Jiaojiao, there was a hint of pride between her eyebrows.

With the prince here, no one can bully her.

Hao Jiaojiao snorted coldly, turned her anger into appetite, and ate like crazy.

What a pair of dogs they are. I clearly didn't mean that, but one of them twisted my meaning, and the other one blamed me for making trouble!

"My Lady, you have been in the palace for a while. I believe you have learned a lot of arts in the palace. Would you like to compete with me? Otherwise, everyone will only praise the versatility of me as a younger sister, but will not know the brilliance of the older sister."

Lin Xue looked at Lin You indifferently and actually challenged him.

She has endured enough during this period of time. Now that Concubine Chan and the prince are backing her up, she will openly slap Lin You in the face.

Even if she was the imperial concubine who attended to government affairs, she was not the queen after all, not the person in Shen Jing'an's heart. She was just a substitute, a chess piece, and a jumping clown.
