Chapter 226: Chapter 228 Lively Pavilion

Crown prince Xiao Tianyu nodded and motioned to Chiang Yuxi to get up.
On the crown prince’s side, Chiang Ruoming, Chiang Yuxi’s younger brother, quickly passed by and said, “Sister, His Highness the crown prince and Li Prince were wandering around the garden. When they came to the outside of Sparrow Pavilion, they heard excited voices coming from inside. They came to see what the commotion was.”
After Chiang Ruoming said that, Chiang Yuxi immediately replied, “We are going to do a talent show of sorts. If cousin and Li Prince are interested, you could come and watch.”
As soon as Chiang Yuxi said that, many of the men there nodded in agreement.
Since there was still a long way to go before the banquet started, the group had nothing to do. Now that the ladies were doing a talent show, the group thought they might as well watch.
What’s more, there were a lot of young ladies from aristocratic families gathered here.
Before Crown prince Xiao Tianyu and Li Prince Xiao Jiuyuan could say anything, most of the men behind them had agreed to stay and watch the show.
“Let’s stay and watch, it’s not like we have anything to do.”
“Yes, it’s said that Su Feiyan from the Su family is a talented woman.”
“The second young miss of the Yun family is also a talented woman.”
All the men started discussing about the ladies.
Since ancient times, the topic that men talked about most was women. Since so many beautiful and talented women were gathered here, naturally the men were interested in staying.
All of them looked eagerly toward the crown prince Xiao Tianyu and Li Prince Xiao Jiuyuan.
With a darkened face, Xiao Jiuyuan didn’t say a single word from beginning to end.
Anyone with eyes could see that Xiao Jiuyuan was in a bad mood. Knowing that, none of the men there dared to speak to him or look at him.
Crown prince Xiao Tianyu on the other hand was his usual calm and joyful self. After hearing that everyone behind him was interested in staying, he nodded and agreed. “Since everyone wants to see it, let’s have a look.”
Crown prince Xiao Tianyu took the lead and walked into the Sparrow Pavillion. Behind him Xuan Prince followed suit.
Xiao Tianyi, the Xuan Prince felt a little worried as he thought of Yun Qianyu. He had heard that Yun Qianyu would be here and he was worried that she may lose face in the talent show.
He knew that Yun Qianyu couldn’t play music, chess, write calligraphy or paint. Her mother had died early when she was a child thus no one had taught her these things. Worse yet, Yun Lei had never arranged a tutor for Yun Qianyu either.
This was one of the reasons why Xiao Tianyi did not marry Yun Qianyu. He felt that she wasn’t talented enough to be his princess consort.
However, now he was a little worried for her.
In the courtyard of Sparrow Pavilion, tables with fruits and snacks had been arranged in a circle. In the middle of the space, there was a drum. Besides the drum, there were also things like the Guqin, Go, calligraphy and painting material. Everything that was needed for the show was there.
As the ladies were preparing for the game they heard the sound of footsteps. Many of them instinctively turned around and saw the crown prince Xiao Tianyu and Li Prince coming in.
Behind the two a group of outstanding young talented men came in as well, most of them unmarried and still single.
Soon, the place became a little out of control with the men chit-chatting among themselves, while the women subtly tidied their clothes to show themselves from their most beautiful side.
If any of these men fell in love with them, they would be able to marry into a noble family. If you find any errors ( broken links, non-standard content, etc.. ), Please let us know so we can fix it as soon as possible.
