Chapter 600 Lottery
Sheng Jingzhan instantly became the focus of everyone's attention, and the gentle expression on his face almost broke.
At this moment, the little kid's hands had already loosened the rope, and she ran to the male protagonist with a smile, glancing at him shyly: "Second Uncle, you are not in good health and can't hold Qingjie. Qingjie wants to catch fish for you to eat, so that you can hold Qingjie after eating."
Sheng Jingzhan looked at the two fish that the maid brought in front of him, and then stared at the little kid's sincere eyes, and put on an uncomfortable smile: "Thank you, Sister Qing, you are so thoughtful."
When Xiao Yining heard the response, she smiled even brighter, and in full view of everyone, she ran back to the embarrassed old man and said, "Dad, uncle, and second uncle said they like to eat the fish caught by Qingjie."
The two old men nodded hurriedly and replied perfunctorily, "Yes, yes, it was Sister Qing who caught the fish!"
Everyone looked at the two men's wet hair and pale faces in silence. Even Fang Fang's dissatisfaction turned into sympathy.
The "fishing" kid was pulled aside by her mother, who gently rebuked her: "Qing Jie'er, your father and uncle are both injured, how could you let them go fishing?"
"Mom, Dad and my eldest uncle can both hold Qing Jie, but my second uncle can't!"
The little girl's aggrieved voice sounded, which inevitably reminded people of the scene when she caught King Yu just now.
Everyone's meaningful gazes fell on King Yu again.
"This is simply nonsense!" Duke Chen didn't know whose behavior he was dissatisfied with, and he suddenly scolded with a deafening voice.
The already weird atmosphere became even more subtle, and Sheng Jingzhan's face suddenly became a little ugly.
Wang, Lin didn't know what happened at this moment, and didn't care about the atmosphere in the field. He just glanced at the long table in the garden in confusion, and then supported each other to come to Duke Chen, bowed deeply, and said goodbye in unison: "Duke Chen, I feel a little unwell today, I will come to bother you another day."
As soon as these words were spoken, the situation became awkward, because before the two of them returned, Prince Yu had said that he had brought the painting for people to view for three days at the request of Miss Yan, and the painter was Lin Yuzan.
Now that it has become a prize, for the sake of fairness and justice, Lin Yuzan must participate.
Now he couldn't participate because of King Yu's fish. Even if he won the competition and got the prize, it would be meaningless. He was afraid that he would be told that he had borrowed the three-day qualification, which was unfair. But if he agreed to participate, it would be unfair.
Once the talent contest begins, it cannot be stopped, and it is even more impossible to cancel the contest because one person is unable to participate. Even if it is not for the book, one must consider the reputation of each family, and even more so the face of the royal family behind King Yu.
The pressure is directly placed on the Chen family and King Yu to see how they deal with it.
Many people couldn't help but whisper about this matter.
Just as the organizers were looking at each other in silence, another person who didn't like to read people's expressions spoke.
"Cousin, you probably can't leave. King Yu is going to hold a painting competition. The prize is related to you, so you must participate." Pei Yi said bluntly.
Lin Yuzan was stunned when he heard this. As a man with a sharp mind, he instantly noticed the unique copy on the plate. He turned to look at Zhang Liangchuan.
At this time, Zhang Liangchuan's face was red and he was so ashamed that he wished he could find a hole to crawl into. His little niece grabbed his clothes in fear and hid behind him timidly, not daring to look anyone in the eye.
"Brother Lin, I'm sorry." He lowered his head and apologized in a low voice.
Lin Yuzan reluctantly withdrew his gaze and responded with a cupped hand: "If King Yu does not despise my poor skills, I will do my best to satisfy King Yu."
Seeing that he was so tactful, Sheng Jingzhan nodded slightly, took out a jade pendant from his body and placed it next to the solitary book, and said, "This king will not bully you. As long as your painting skills are better than half of the people here today, this jade pendant will be awarded to you. Of course, if you can win the first prize, all these prizes will belong to you, and you can also borrow any books in this palace."
As soon as he finished speaking, Duke Chen glanced at him coldly, threw something on the plate, and said loudly: "Since the competition is held in my house, it is naturally unreasonable for the guests to pay for all the prizes. I will also express my gratitude."
Then, he changed the subject: "Come here, serve a bowl of ginger soup to Zan, so that he won't be exhausted while painting and people will mistakenly think that I am not hospitable to guests."
Sheng Jingzhan looked at the short blade on the plate, his eyes flickering slightly: "Duke Chen's bet is quite unique."
"I am a rough man, but I don't have so many twists and turns. The same goes for the things I bring with me." Duke Chen sneered.
Sheng Jingzhan smiled back with an ambiguous meaning, and his gradually cold and deep eyes looked at Lin Yuzan again: "Go pick a table, everyone has been waiting for you for a long time."
Lin Yuzan did not hesitate and with the help of his old rival, he slowly walked towards the long table next to Zhang Liangchuan.
Wang Cheng took the opportunity to secretly make a few gestures on his arms: "This King Yu doesn't care about his reputation, it's really strange."
Lin Yuzan's eyes flashed with a hint of mockery, which disappeared in an instant, and he replied calmly: "This thing can be earned back at any time."
As they were talking, they walked to their seats, and Zhang Liangchuan's words followed: "Brother Lin, I will do my best to win your unique copy back."
When Lin Yuzan heard this, helplessness appeared on his face again. He turned around and was about to reply when he saw a small figure running towards the table where he was.
Yu Ke hurriedly put a banknote on the long table and said in a very fast voice: "Father Lin, it's okay if you can't get the prize. As long as you beat five people, my prize will be yours, and you can use it to buy the rare copy."
After saying this, she covered her face with a fan and ran away quickly.
Zhang Liangchuan: ...
Lin Yuzan lowered his eyes and looked at the five thousand taels of silver, his expression suddenly became extremely interesting.
