章節 138: Chapter 137: Rewarding a Crab

Shen Chuwei retreated to the side hall, and while no one was around, she took out a box of watercolor brushes from the space, as the rice paper was readily available here, requiring only a small eunuch to fetch it.

She didn't aim to dazzle spectacularly, just to avoid embarrassing Xiao Jinyan.

After all, Xiao Jinyan had brought her, who was a clueless foodie, along~

Then she instructed the small eunuch to carry both the writing desk and the brushes to the Grand Hall.

Only then did Shen Chuwei slowly step into the Grand Hall, noticing quite a few people standing in the center, some holding zithers, others wielding brushes, none of whose faces she recognized.

She walked to the writing desk with perplexity.

It wasn't until the Emperor said to begin that Chuwei realized the women standing in the heart of the Hall were also there to display their talents.

Were they competing with one another?
