Chapter 23: Make it Difficult

Feng Zhiyao acted as if she didn't hear Su Muyan's words and directly walked into the moon shaped pavilion in the middle of the garden. Her smile was so light that people couldn't tell what she was thinking.

She swept her gaze in all four directions. Almost all of the people she knew were here, Situ Yelei, Beitang Ziqian, Wen Xingyuan, and even the Xuanyuan siblings. However, the beautiful woman beside Beitang Ziqian looked very similar to Beitang Ziqian.

Wait, why is Li Mincan among them? Could it be that he was also a scion of a noble family? As for the three men and two women, she was not very familiar with them!

"Sister, why have you only just arrived?" "But it's not too late. This Ephemeral Snow Flower won't bloom for at least another two hours." Feng Zhiqiong glanced at Feng Zhiyao, immediately stopping her conversation with Xuanyuan Lingxi.

Feng Zhiyao mumbled when she saw these two stupid women together again. It seemed that she hadn't succeeded in taunting them. It seemed that she had to work harder.

Feng Zhiqiong's hout of "Sister" focused the attention of these men and women on Feng Zhiyao.

Li Mincan was very surprised to see Feng Zhiyao here. He thought that if the two met again, they wouldn't be in public.

He looked at the beautiful girl who was unconscious like a pearl and couldn't help but fall into a trance. He remembered the situation a few days ago when she had saved him … Now that she was in front of his eyes again, his gaze fell on her, and his heart fluttered like a fawn's.

A pair of pear-shaped cheeks appeared on Feng Zhiyao's white and tender face. The faint blush from her rouge made her cheeks look as smooth as peach blossoms, revealing her rosy white complexion.

Her eyebrows were curved, like a painting, a pair of eyes that looked forward to the light. Her mesmerizing eyes were clear in black and white, rippling with an enchanting charm. The pearl white wide ribbon was tied up, and her long black hair gave off a fairy aura.

She had long hair and a droop of white and pink flowers at her temples. Occasionally, one or two disobedient beads would droop down from her hair, adding a bit of true and fantasy beauty to it. She wore a milky white jade bracelet around her wrist, exuding an indescribable radiance that complemented her plain attire. She wore a thin silver necklace on her neck, faintly glowing with a purple luster. It was only a purple crystal, and its entire body exuded a natural and fresh yet graceful aura. However, it was actually able to forcibly compete with the young ladies who were wearing makeup.

Xuanyuan Haofei looked at the different Feng Zhiyao and a strange feeling flashed across his heart. When he wanted to investigate further, it had already flashed past.

Ever since Feng Zhiyao appeared, Situ Yelei's gaze had been glued onto her pretty face, not moving the slightest bit.

This caused Xuanyuan Lingxi to clench her teeth in anger and clench her fists. Thus, the corners of her lips curled up slightly as she spoke out. "Eldest Miss has really given us a lot of face. She made us wait for her for a long time!"

When Situ Yelei heard such harsh words, his pretty eyebrows slightly creased. Why was Princess Lingxi becoming even more unreasonable!

Feng Zhiyao and Feng Zhiqiong both knew very well that Xuanyuan Lingxi was making things difficult for Feng Zhiyao. Feng Zhiqiong thought that Feng Zhiyao would glare at her angrily or find excuses, but Feng Zhiyao only smiled lightly.

"I'm really sorry. Just give me a few more shots later!" Feng Zhiyao didn't want to lose her composure in front of Li Mincan and the others, so she smiled as if she was blaming herself.

"That's right, Princess Lingxi is right. It must be that Eldest Miss is looking down on us, so she came late!" The beautiful woman beside Beitang Ziqian smiled sweetly. However, her words were very aggressive.

"That's right, what big sister Zixuan said is what I wanted to say!" Xuanyuan Lingxi hurriedly nodded her head like a chick pecking rice when she saw that someone had replied.

"Well, what can I do to allay your grievances?" That's true. Waiting for someone to hone her skills was indeed tormenting. She admitted that she was a little lazy, but she slept a little more. This time, she almost missed out on the beautiful man hunting.

When Feng Zhiyao heard Xuanyuan Lingxi address the woman next to Beitang Ziqian as big sister Zixuan, she knew in her heart that Beitang Zixuan was the younger sister of Beitang Ziqian. She was also the number one prodigy in the entire Nan Shao Kingdom, and the title of "number one prodigy" had been given by the old emperor himself!

"No matter how much I resent, I can't compare to the grudge of someone being divorced!" "Hmph!" Beitang Zixuan was quite proud and arrogant. At this moment, she was coldly refuted by Feng Zhiyao. Her face immediately turned the color of a pig's liver as she mockingly said, not wanting to show any weakness.

Hate, big brother Xingyuan had been looking at Feng Zhiyao the whole time. He really didn't know what was so good about a woman who had her marriage annulled!

After Beitang Zixuan saw King Qi, Xuanyuan Haofei, hand over a silk book to Feng Zhiyao, the corner of her mouth slightly hooked up. Ha, the rumors were true, and it was rumored that King Qi had dissolved Feng Zhiyao's engagement.

Feng Zhiyao received the marriage annulment letter and hurriedly told Zi Yun to keep it properly. She thought to herself, I've finally recovered. God, she was so happy that she almost jumped three feet into the air.

However, if the ancient woman was delivered with the marriage annulment letter on the spot, her normal expression should be filled with tears, right?

However, she couldn't cry in front of so many people! But be good enough to pretend to be sad. She pretended to be listless and lowered her head, not saying a word.

Feng Zhiqiong seeing that Xuanyuan Haofei had really brought the marriage annulment book over to Feng Zhiyao, she immediately felt sweet inside. It seemed that Brother Hao cared about her the most. Thus, her lips unconsciously raised upwards.

In the eyes of Wen Xingyuan and Li Mincan, Feng Zhiyao looked lonely and forgiving.

Situ Yelei felt that this was a bit too much for Xuanyuan Haofei to deliver the marriage annulment letter in public!

Su Muyan inexplicably felt that he was in a much better mood. It was a good thing for such a shameless girl to have her marriage annulled!

Although Beitang Ziqian didn't really like Feng Zhiyao, it was still quite embarrassing for a girl who hadn't been married yet to be delivered the marriage annulment letter on the spot. Thus, he signaled Zixuan not to mock her.

After Feng Zhiyao's happiness, she thought again. Xuanyuan Haofei really knew how to pick the right time. He gave her the marriage annulment letter at this time, it was really shameless! And in front of so many people, it was not giving her any face at all!

"Alright, I suddenly feel tired. You guys can continue admiring the Ephemeral Snow Flower! I'll leave first!" Feng Zhiyao pretended to leave.

"If you leave now, are you afraid of competing with us?" Xuanyuan Lingxi remembered that she was going to recite poetry. If Feng Zhiyao left, wouldn't it mean that she wouldn't be able to find fault with her?

Intimidation? Such a childish provocation!

Feng Zhiyao stopped in her tracks, "I'm not interested!" A cold voice rang out, penetrating through the darkness of the night, making her seem even more powerful.

"Elder sister, for your younger sister's sake, don't leave the table early! Well?" Feng Zhiqiong said. If Feng Zhiyao left now, wouldn't all her preparations be in vain?

"What if there's a prize?" Xuanyuan Haofei's enchanting black eyes looked at Feng Zhiyao. His sudden suggestion had brought the current atmosphere to its climax …


Chapter 24: One Night

Prize?

Could it be the meaning of reward?

Feng Zhiyao's expression froze. Then, could she ask for a night with the pretty man as a reward?

When she turned around, she slowly raised her head to look at Xuanyuan Haofei. With he purple-gold crown and hair, his originally handsome and extraordinary features appeared even more imposing against he luxurious brocade clothes.

"Is it because Yao'er received my marriage annulment letter then you don't dare stay to face me or the others? Or are you trying to pin the blame on qiong'er, so don't want to stay and watch the flower with everyone?" The cold words were full of ridicule!

Xuanyuan Haofei's posture was proud and his slightly pursed lips made his handsome features even more imposing and unassailable.

At this very moment, he was no longer Xuanyuan Haofei, the friend who interacted with the crowd. Instead, he was the blessed and incomparably noble emperor's seventh son.

You're the one who took the initiative to cancel the engagement and force the original Feng Zhiyao to death, okay?!

He actually pushed all the blame onto her!

Feng Zhiyao lowered her eyes slightly. Her eyes were ice-cold!

"Feng Zhiyao, don't you have the face to stay?" Xuanyuan Lingxi remembered her previous grievance and hurriedly took the opportunity to mock Feng Zhiyao.

"Seventh Brother, don't make things difficult for her. You delivered the marriage annulment letter to her face. Why are you acting so aggressively at this moment?" The white-clothed youth, who was sipping tea with his friends, could not bear to watch any longer, so persuaded. He seemed to be one or two years older than Feng Zhiyao.

"Eighteenth Brother!" Xuanyuan Haofei only coldly called out the rank of the white-robed youth before paying him no more attention.

Feng Zhiyao couldn't help but look at the white-clothed youth called Brother Eighteenth!

His white clothes were like a jade tree, planted in mountains and rivers, harvesting the essence of heaven and earth. It was also like a beautiful piece of jade from Kunlun, landing in the southeast corner and exuding a faint splendor.

It was indeed from the royal family, it was the finest product!

Such a beautiful young man, Feng Zhiyao couldn't help but be stunned! But in the next instant, a discordant voice rang out in her ears once again.

"What, are you afraid?" When Xuanyuan Lingxi saw that the eighteenth brother, Xuanyuan Haoyun, actually helped Feng Zhiyao, she unhappily glared at Xuanyuan Haoyun. However, she continued focusing on Feng Zhiyao.

"You really want me to stay? Alright, then tell me, what kind of prize can you use to attract me to stay and fight with you?" Feng Zhiyao said with a casual tone, but she also made Feng Zhiqiong, Xuanyuan Lingxi, and Beitang Zixuan almost burst out of their skin.

Immediately, the atmosphere became tense!

"Eldest Miss!" Zi Yun cried out in fear. She now understood that the Second Miss' actions were actually aimed at the Eldest Miss! How shameless. She had stolen Eldest Miss's fiance, and she even bullied Eldest Miss with so many people. She couldn't bear it any longer, but why wasn't Eldest Miss nervous at all?

Feng Zhiyao only smiled with a flirtatious look between her eyebrows. Her gaze fell on Xuanyuan Haofei's handsome face, but her words were indeed directed towards Feng Zhiqiong, "younger sister, what should we compete against? A game of chess and painting? Poetry and songs?" It seems that the ancients were playing with these gadgets?

Her face was clearly a shallow and moving smile, but the mockery in her words was like a sharp sword made of crushed ice, stabbing straight into Feng Zhiqiong's heart.

"Sister, is this a yes?" Feng Zhiqiong originally wanted to flare up, but as soon as she thought of the main event that would decide the outcome at the last moment, she immediately smiled gracefully. From the outside, it seemed that they were truly in harmony.

"However, does the so-called prize of His Highness the King of Qi has a hint or two?

I don't want to waste my brain cells, I have to get some extra money no matter what."

"It's been a while since I last saw the young miss of the Prime Minister. I've really looked up to her in a new level!" Beitang Zixuan said those words word by word. She did not expect that the big-hearted and brainless Feng Zhiyao would actually be so arrogant. It was as if she did not place the surrounding people with knowledge in her eyes. Alright, don't blame her for not showing mercy later!

These words finally attracted Feng Zhiyao's attention. She was pretty, a beautiful woman, but she was too thin. Compared to Feng Zhiyao's devilish body, their bodies were like the sky and the earth.

Pfft, wasn't she the number one prodigy personally named by the old Emperor? No wonder she was so confident. Alright, let's compete then.

Xuanyuan Haoyun glanced at Beitang Zixuan and sighed inwardly. Wasn't she underestimating her enemy too much? She had already lost her grandeur when it came to competing!

When Wen Xingyuan heard Beitang Zixuan's mocking words, his sword-like eyebrows slightly knitted together. He had watched Zixuan growing up, and he knew quite a bit about her talent. An ordinary little miss probably wouldn't be a match for her, but the current Feng Zhiyao … It was hard to say!

Li Mincan showed encouragement in his eyes towards Feng Zhiyao who was confidently smiling. He was very much looking forward to this showdown between the number one beauty and the number one prodigy!

"Humph, don't lose too badly when the time comes!" Su Muyan coldly snorted as the disdain in his eyes deepened. In his heart, he was already blaming Feng Zhiqiong for calling Feng Zhiyao over. He was really disappointed.

"Zixuan, you are the Emperor's personal number one prodigy, you can't take advantage of this to bully her!" Beitang Ziqian was very proud of his little sister's title. Although he was lecturing his little sister, he was actually secretly mocking Feng Zhiyao.

"Brother, I'm not, Right? Eldest Miss?" Beitang Zixuan smiled warmly.

Feng Zhiyao nodded when she heard this, smiling faintly without saying a word. But who was bullying who?

Moments later, she did not hear the King of Qi's voice.

"May I ask what the prize is, Your Highness?" When Feng Zhiyao saw the corner of Feng Zhiqiong's lips inadvertently slightly raise, she could guess that today was probably Feng Zhiqiong's Malicious Banquet! However, she purposely repeated the topic of the prize once again!

However, since she had come, she would face it bravely. In this world, there was no one could threaten her!

"Eldest Miss, if you lose, won't it be ugly?" Beitang Zixuan remembered that she was not bad looking, and that she only had the title of number one prodigy, while Feng Zhiyao only had a good appearance, but was no match for her in terms of zither,chess, calligraphy, painting and poetry, and thus, Beitang Zixuan had always looked down on Feng Zhiyao.

"How did you know I would lose? Or are you afraid of competing with me?" Feng Zhiyao let out a sigh as she continued to talk directly to Beitang Zixuan!

What was wrong with these people? Compete or not?

"Sister Zixuan, you represent us to compete with Feng Zhiyao!" Xuanyuan Lingxi immediately drooped her eyes and smiled sinisterly in fear of no chaos.

"I offer one thousand taels of silver! As the prize for your match, all right?" Xuanyuan Haofei didn't seem to be as aggressive as before and his tone eased up slightly.

"Just a thousand taels of silver as the prize is too vulgar, why don't we add some more?" Li Mincan smiled as he took a carved and exquisite command medallion from his waist.

"Soul Chase Order? Brother Li, so generous? Isn't it too much!" When Beitang Ziqian saw the item in Li Mincan's hand, his face was filled with shock.

What was Soul Chase Order? It meant things only end after death!

As long as it was a Soul Chase order from the Soul Chase Manor, even if the person who was being chased was already dead, he would be dug out his tendons and pulled out his bones. This was, of course, a bit exaggerated, but it also showed how terrifying Soul Chase Order was!

When Feng Zhiyao heard the words "Soul Chase Order", she couldn't help but frown!

AWOO! Could she ask him to change his prize? if she won, Let Li Mincan accompany her for one night?
