The madame nodded. Just as everyone was eager to give it a try, the madame spoke again.

"If you lose, you will marry the family that this old one has arranged for tomorrow. Now, you still have a chance to go back on your words!"

With so many people here as witnesses, the words that came out now were without a doubt. The madame's words had completely cut off Bai Suyue's escape route.

If you want her to leave the matter of General's Estate behind, that is fine, but if you lose, you have to listen to her marriage.

This gamble had directly affected Bai Suyue for the rest of her life. Everyone's relaxed expression had become more probing, and they were all waiting for Bai Suyue's response.

Bai Suyue raised her head slightly, a gentle and courteous smile on her face.

"Alright, it's settled then!"

The madame's face froze. Her gaze towards Bai Suyue changed slightly. She sat in her seat and wondered if this lass in front of her knew that she could not get married. She wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to get married.

But then she thought about the kind of family she was looking for. Her lips curved into a smile. She wanted to tell Bai Suyue what it meant to be old and spicy.

"This matter shall be left to you!"

Following the madame's instructions, Eldest Madame walked down from the stage. About a dozen of the Shangguan family's daughters were pushed along from below. Bai Ruoshui followed closely behind Eldest Madame like a lotus flower blooming every step of the way.

Bai Ruoshui was an absolute genius. Her temperament wasn't something that could be mastered in just three days. It had been slowly accumulated from when she was young.

Bai Suyue raised her head and looked at Bai Ruoshui. Her eyes flickered with a glimmer of light, full of confidence.

Back then, in order to become a Courtesan Belle, she had put in a lot of hard work.

Although her reputation was not that good, if she really wanted to achieve that, then those two years of living could be said to be as long as a year to her.

In the moment of success, she felt as if she had lived her entire life.

She didn't even need to go all out to deal with Bai Ruoshui, who was living a comfortable life.

"Since you want to compete in etiquette, then let's start from the very basics. How did you train Senior Servant Li back then?"

As Eldest Madame spoke, someone brought over several porcelain bowls filled with clear water and arranged them in a row.

Bai Suyue lowered her eyes to take a look.

Even if she hadn't, she would still be much more powerful than these thin and frail young ladies, let alone the ones before.

"Eldest Madame, she knows martial arts, her victory is undeserved!"

One of the women immediately pointed in Bai Suyue's direction. Eldest Madame was silent for a moment before she glanced at Bai Suyue with a troubled expression.

"This is going to be difficult!"

Upon hearing this, everyone in the crowd became curious. They didn't know what Eldest Madame would think of to make it more difficult for Bai Suyue.

Bai Suyue smiled lightly.

"I'm not going to compete in this round, because no matter what, I will win!"

Bai Ruoshui frowned slightly. Thoughts flashed past her eyes as she said, "I'm not competing either!"

Once the two main characters left, the remaining people no longer had the mood to compete. Rather than having to be laughed at, it was better to give up on this game.

Unfortunately, Feng Qingcheng suddenly walked out from the crowd. A faint smile appeared on his jade-like face and a faint dark light flashed across his obsidian eyes.

"This is a competition of etiquette, not martial arts. From this prince's point of view, there is no need to use this bowl. Just let everyone walk a circle around this path and you will naturally be able to determine the difference between high and low!"

This sentence was instantly accepted by all the onlookers.

Feng Muling was sitting calmly beside the banquet table in the middle of the crowd. His gaze would occasionally fall on Bai Suyue.

Eldest Madame thought that this suggestion wasn't bad. She let the dozen or so people at the front of the crowd intentionally put Bai Suyue and Bai Ruoshui together.

This was also indirectly to add to the madame's birthday celebration, so that the crowd could watch and sing merrily.

If he was one of the best, he might suddenly become famous, and he might even become a popular figure in the upper circles of the capital.

Therefore, esteemed lady and the others who had been staying in the boudoir all year round could be considered to be exerting all their strength to try their best.

A row of people walked over gracefully. After everyone had seen this, they laughed and talked about it, causing many women to blush. There were even a few women behind them who gave up on the competition and left the stage.

In the end, only Bai Suyue and Bai Ruoshui were left standing on the stage.

Bai Suyue couldn't lose, so she couldn't step down from the stage.

This time, she was going to show everyone what the real esteemed lady was like, a lady from a noble family.

Bai Ruoshui's expression turned ugly. However, when she saw the crown prince, Feng Muling, sitting among the crowd, her eyes lit up. She lifted her skirt and began to walk forward.

As expected of the young master's daughter, all these years of training were not wasted.

Bai Ruoshui slightly lifted her chin as she walked, more or less, carrying a trace of pride.

Even Bai Suyue, who was standing behind Bai Ruoshui, felt a tinge of admiration for Bai Ruoshui's temperament.

However, when Bai Ruoshui was halfway through, she saw Yan Mochi among the crowd suddenly raise his head and glance at her. However, when Bai Ruoshui was halfway through, Yan Mochi among the crowd suddenly raised his head and look at her.

"Ah!

All of a sudden, she accidentally stepped on her own long skirt and staggered, causing her to fall off the stage. With a startled cry, the people standing below couldn't help but retreat a few steps back.

Just as her head was about to hit the ground, a figure had already arrived beside her and placed a hand on her shoulder.

A massive force lifted her up into the air, but her feet still landed firmly on the stands.

Bai Suyue's plain long skirt fluttered in the wind as she stood below the stage. It was as if she was an immortal that had fallen into the mundane world.

The cool breeze blew past Bai Suyue's long hair. The girl's appearance was neither ostentatious nor unsightly. If one looked carefully, they would see that her facial features were extremely exquisite. Her entire body was exuding a strong corrosive aura.

Bai Suyue's movements were graceful and graceful. She was neither bashful nor dull like Bai Ruoshui. While she opened and closed her mouth, she also paid attention to her bearing. She raised her hand and raised her foot, each of them carrying a certain kind of air … This was a feeling that made one feel extremely comfortable.

He had only taken a few steps, but in the eyes of the onlookers, that path seemed to have been reclaimed by heaven.

Yan Mochi was standing not far away with a stunned expression in his eyes.

It was impossible for him to learn such a calm skill within a few years.

However, the little girl in front of him was only fifteen or sixteen years old right now. Furthermore, she was famous for not being able to learn anything. How could she suddenly become a completely different person?

His black eyes flickered with a strong splendor. The gorgeous lights slowly converged to form an image. In the middle of the picture stood a young woman who was now the focus of everyone's attention.
