Chapter 493 Lin Xiaoyu makes a move!
Lin Xiaoyu received Cen Xihan's glance and couldn't help but pursed her lips.
In fact, for this poetry party, she originally just wanted to invite a few friends from her circle to have a casual gathering. After all, it was the end of the year, so it was not appropriate to lead a large gathering, and it was too hasty.
Later, it was Cen Xihan who suggested that she invite everyone she could. Before the Chinese New Year, all the noble ladies from each mansion should have a good gathering, including those who don’t usually play together, so that they can be more able to
Demonstrate her abilities and means.
Lin Xiaoyu is not a fool, and she can naturally see that Cen Xihan's proposal is purposeful, but she is still moved. She has reached the age of discussing marriage, and her current abilities and connections will make her very capable in the future.
Extra points for my in-laws.
However, she didn't want to be taken advantage of by Cen Xihan for no apparent reason. Before accepting Cen Xihan's proposal, she asked Cen Xihan if he had any plans.
Cen Xihan knew that Lin Xiaoyu was also a shrewd person. If he wanted to do something through Lin Xiaoyu's hands, then some things could not be hidden from Lin Xiaoyu.
So at that time, she calmly said to Lin Xiaoyu: "I won't hide it from you. My sixth sister Cen Xiyan has been very domineering and arrogant since she returned to the house. My mother, my fourth brother, and my eighth sister were all in her hands one after another.
I have suffered a loss, and I am really angry for my mother and the others. I just want to give her a small lesson so that she can restrain herself in the future and not be too arrogant."
This is half true and half false. No, it should be said that it is more false. She is not a person who will stand up for others' grievances. The reason why she plots against Cen Xiyan is entirely because she looks down on Cen Xiyan.
She feels that Cen Xiyan threatens her in every aspect.
Especially Mo Xianyun's attitude towards Cen Xiyan during the wedding ceremony made her jealous. She became more and more dissatisfied with Cen Xiyan, and she also wanted to make Cen Xiyan look bad and destroy Cen Xiyan's reputation in Mo Xianyun's mind.
Her image also made it impossible for her to gain a foothold in the circle of noble ladies in the capital.
Lin Xiaoyu looked at Cen Xihan suspiciously for a long time, and then asked slightly sarcastically: "Anyway, Cen Xiyan is also the lady of your Cen family, your sister. Let her make a fool of herself in front of everyone, and Cen will be embarrassed."
Don’t you care about the family’s reputation?”
Cen Xihan disagreed and said calmly: "Who in the capital doesn't know that my sixth sister grew up in the countryside. There was no elders to teach her. I just invited a local old gentleman to enlighten her and she knew a few words.
, isn’t it said that it is a virtue for a woman to have no talent? I’m sure everyone won’t criticize the Cen family too much on this matter, right?”
After hearing Cen Xihan's words, Lin Xiaoyu couldn't help but secretly pouted, "It is virtue for a woman to have no talent"? Cen Xihan actually used this sentence to prevaricate, it is really ridiculous!
If that's the case, why is she, Cen Xihan, trying so hard to gain a reputation as a talented woman? Isn't it just to improve her own worth! In the circle of noble ladies in the capital, what matters most is having both ability and political integrity!
Cen Xiyan has made a fool of himself. If outsiders really don’t give too much advice to Cen Mansion, why should she, Cen Xihan, attack Cen Xiyan?
Lin Xiaoyu secretly despised Cen Xihan for being sinister and reckless. In order to achieve his goal, he even ignored the face of his own family, which made her despise her. However, she didn't show anything on her face and agreed to Cen Xihan's proposal.
Anyway, it was just the Cen sisters fighting among themselves, and she was happy to watch the fun.
Moreover, the sudden appearance of Prince Rui and his mother at the hairpin ceremony of the two ladies of the Cen Mansion that day was the focus of secret discussion in the capital recently.
She also wanted to see what was so special about the sixth lady of the Cen family who was treated so specially by the mysterious lady and Prince Rui and her son...
Because of the secret connection between Cen Xihan and Lin Xiaoyu, this poetry meeting turned from a small gathering in Lin Xiaoyu's circle of friends into a large gathering. It was also because of this that Cen Xiyan received the invitation to the poetry meeting.
Now, Lin Xiaoyu received Cen Xihan's gaze, pursed her lips, and looked at Cen Xiyan.
From the time when Cen Xiyan and Cen Xiqin cooperated in archery and won the lottery between her and Mo Manlu, Lin Xiaoyu could tell that this sixth lady of the Cen family, who looked quiet and silent, was actually not a good person.
She felt hesitant for a moment as she faced the character she was dealing with.
But in the end, she still felt that there was no need to worry about Titus and planned to take action!
First, Cen Xiyan has not written a single poem until now. This is a fact. It is not out of the blue for her to bring it up now. If she is allowed to get over it like this, it will not make sense. And she is a member of the poetry club.
As for the leader, it’s not too much to ask about other people’s poetry writing.
Secondly, Cen Xiyan and Cen Xiqin cooperated to win away her beloved little mink. She had been unwilling to give up and suppressed her anger, but she just took this opportunity to breathe a sigh of relief.
Lin Xiaoyu made up her mind, then smiled and spoke to Cen Xiyan, "We have read and appreciated everyone's poems, but Miss Cen Liu's masterpiece has never been seen! It is said that the more wonderful the works, the more beautiful they are.
It is only at the end that the gap will be revealed, which will amaze everyone. The same must be true for Miss Cen Liu's poems, right? I wonder what kind of stunning works Miss Cen Liu will come up with to open everyone's eyes? The time is almost up now.
Miss Cen Liu, please stop being so pretentious and bring it out quickly, we are all looking forward to it!"
As soon as Lin Xiaoyu said these words, everyone's attention was successfully transferred to Cen Xiyan!
In fact, many people have noticed that the sixth lady of the Cen Mansion has always been sitting there silently without showing a single poem.
But most people don't want to be the first to mention it. The young masters don't want to lose their grace in front of the ladies, and the ladies don't want to come across as mean and picky in front of these men.
Lin Xiaoyu is different. She is the leader of this poetry meeting, and she has the position to bring this matter to the forefront.
Jin Fang and Cen Xiqin have been worried about this matter. They are really worried about what will happen. After all, they did not hide away. Cen Xiyan did not write poetry, but he was still found out!
The two girls frowned at the same time, feeling anxious but unable to do anything.
Cen Hongyu also frowned at this time, worried about Cen Xiyan. In the past few gatherings and games at Cen's house, the sixth sister refused to write poetry. It's not like she is really not good at poetry.
What to do...
Mo Junxuan and Jin Muchen also looked at Cen Xiyan, one with a twinkling look and the other with interest, wanting to see how Cen Xiyan would deal with the current situation.
