C13 Not First

Then, Prefect Lin came out, "There are two sculptures, each with its own advantages, but unable to determine the pros and cons."

And then? I looked into his eyes, squinting like a rat, and there was a light in them. He smiled at the judges and said, "Now, let the two painters go up on stage and point out each other's inadequacies. Let the painters from all over the place judge their strengths."

"Alright." Someone shouted loudly, "This is only fair. The one you've just chosen is simply out of the question. We have to sincerely accept it."

Just now, did something happen?

"Lin Jingru." Lin Jing, who was as beautiful as a blooming spring flower, appeared on stage.

He paused before calling out again, "Ni Chu Xue."

I, was actually me. So it turned out that the people who liked that painting weren't limited to just a few people.

"It's not a good time for you, ugly woman, to show your kindness. "Don't make me too proud, with her painting, if I see such a result, I'll eat medicine to quench my anger." Shangguan Yu didn't forget to scold me.

I was at a loss. I turned to look at Roshi, who was lying on the table in disappointment, not even looking at her.

After gathering my courage, I walked onto the stage. Below the stage, there was astonishment. I probably didn't dare to believe that with my looks, I could stand together with Lin Jingru! One was so beautiful while the other was as calm as water. I was a little shy and uneasy. I came in such a hurry that I didn't even put on my better clothes.

I looked uneasily at Shangguan Bing, who was standing below the stage. In his calm, trusting eyes, there was mockery, and he was trying to excite my pride.

Yeah, why would I care if anyone laughed at me? I know, there is a person called Shangguan Yu, he won't just look at beauties. Only by being able to paint well would it be appreciated by others.

In his eyes, there probably wasn't a beauty that he liked. I raised my head, I couldn't lose face with the Yin family.

On both sides hung my "Peacock Opening" and Lin Jingru's "Hundred Flowers in Spring".

"Alright, now please explain each other's inadequacies." Another reviewer stroked his beard and raised a hand to stifle the noise.

Lin Jingru looked at me with disdain and said, "Isn't Miss Ni the Yin Mansion's daughter? Why was his surname Ni? "Could it be that you really aren't the daughter of the Yin family?"

I chuckled, "Miss Lin, it's a painting, not a judge. Don't make a mistake on the topic."

Some people laughed wildly when they heard this. That person was Shangguan Yu, mercilessly mocking him. I think he was laughing at Lin Jingru's lack of confidence in her heart, which was why she was so aggressive towards others.

Lin Jingshui blushed, "Alright, I'll tell you about Miss Ni's painting. What's lacking in beauty is that one peacock is enough, and there's even one more underwater peacock, but it's not as beautiful as the one on top. Its fur is not pure black."

Everyone looked at me to see what I had to say. I smiled and said confidently, "Since ancient times, I have thought that the peacock spread its tail flapping in all kinds of colors, carefully watching the black peacock spread its tail flapping. It was so dark that it was green and shiny, and as for the reflection in the water, everyone would take a look at it when they were in the water. The water is clear and light blue in color, and when you look at the distance, you will notice that the water is very heavy. In order to make it feel like it is real, you have to compare the water with the flowers floating on top of it. "

When I had finished, some of them clapped their hands and shouted, "Yes, that's right. I've seen peacocks spread their wings, but I've never seen Miss Ni draw something so lifelike. Peacock spread its wings, self-pitying. "Miss Lin, why don't you go into the water and take a look. Isn't it as tall as your current height?"

I am not ashamed to be praised.

"Please comment on Miss Ni's painting."

I took a deep breath and looked seriously at Lin Jingru's flower. It was beautiful, but only on the surface.

"Miss Lin's painting is truly impeccable. Using color and drawing methods, is a bit inappropriate. Hundred Flowers in Spring, what is important is a play. The rainbow butterflies lingering around it, it is a very beautiful scene."

I saw that Shangguan Yu's face was a bit ugly, ai, I'm not done yet? What was he doing with his dark face? Was he, uh, being a little too nosy? I'm not his patient.

"However, the spring flowers are delicate and beautiful. Miss Lin's flowers seem slightly old, not like the spring flowers but like those that have gone through the spring in the early summer. They lack more tenderness. "Miss Lin's leaves, if only the tender green color was beautiful, it would be painted with the spring sun, causing the leaves to glow with a bit of brilliance. But to my knowledge, light isn't everything. Every petal and leaf of Miss Lin reflects a light." These were her greatest weaknesses.

When it comes to painting, all my awkwardness is gone. "Besides, Miss Lin's painting is too noisy, and butterflies don't pick this kind of flower. Also, this kind of flower would not bloom in spring. Even if it was opened, it would only be a faint pinkish white color, and not this kind of dense color. "

Although painting was just a painting, it also came from nature and reality. One should pay more attention to the footsteps of spring and autumn.

A few reviewers nodded.

Lin Jingru looked at me but couldn't say a word.

Everything I said was true.

Prefect Lin's expression was rather unsightly. "All the scholars, everyone likes it. Let's see, which one is the favorite?"

The most pleasing one is of course the Hundred Blossom Spring. What I draw is rather unpopular, but the ones raising their hands for me are far more than Lin Jingru.

Pear Fragrance looked at me in surprise.

How could I be the champion? This was a piece of paper to be discarded. I didn't have much hope for it.

Lin Jingru's expression was extremely unsightly as she looked at me with flames in her eyes.

I had no intention of arguing with her. I did not know that my painting would be liked by so many people. Since she was already on the stage, she had to be serious and fair, not fight. Was this immortal painter very important to her? False name will bring a lot of trouble, I do not like it, I like the dull life.

I rubbed my head. "Actually, this is nothing?" It's because of the guidance of others that I was able to draw so well. The sea painting of plum blossoms drawn by my sister, Yin pear, is called 'good'. Regardless of whether it is the lines or the flowers, you all painstakingly drew them with your heart, and I admit that I cannot compare to my sister. "

I saw the pear flower smile gratefully at me, but this was the first time I saw such a smile of gratitude. I said softly, "It's just that her body isn't comfortable and she doesn't want to compete. If I drew it like this, then it would be a competition for the title of champion. I will admit that I am inferior to Riko. Every painter's painting has different types of beauty. There is a sky above the heavens and a land beyond the human world; how can there be a true number one? " I took back my Peacock Map. I promised to give it to Shangguan Bing.

I don't dare call myself number one. I'm still young and haven't learned much. The person who makes the painting, not for the first place, only for the love in my heart, I am trying my best to learn this emotion.

The crowd burst into an uproar again as they discussed the "Plum Blossom Snow Diagram" that they had seen. A hint of joy appeared on his sister's face.

She stood up and said elegantly, "Elder sister, let's go home to see father. Father will soon recover from his illness. I believe that Father will take office very soon, so some people won't be happy for too long."

His father had been ill for a long time, so he didn't take care of government affairs too much, so he asked for a leave of absence to rest at home. In Qin Huai's case, most of the decisions were taken by Prefect Lin.

The words of his younger sister had actually caused Prefect Lin's face to darken even more.

I got off the stage and tugged at my sister's clothes. "Pear Blossom, let's go back."

Someone approached and said in a stunned voice, "This is Miss Rivulet. I've heard a lot about her …" Another person who wanted to get to know her.

The brilliance of the Pear Fragrance didn't affect her in the slightest, even if she was disappointed. She looked up. "Yes, I am."

I didn't like this sort of thing. I looked up to find Shangguan Bing, but he also had a dark expression on his face, and turned around to leave.

He really has a bad temper. I didn't offend him, right?

I inadvertently glanced at the awkward Lin Jingru at the side of the stage. I'm a bit sorry, I don't want to be first place, I never want to be first. Firstly, I would always bring many troubles to others. I only like to live a casual life, while Pear Fragrance likes it. Thus, I pushed the limelight to Pear Fragrance.

I think that Lin Jingru's painting is not the best. Actually, I admire some of them, and they are much more beautiful than Lin Jingru's mental state.

Riko's face was brimming with confidence. Her smiling face was like a flower, and she was slowly regaining her former glory.

I was a little happy as I walked behind her. She tactfully and gracefully refused the gifts of the scholars. She was like the brightest peacock in the world, dimming Qin Huai's colorful capital city.

"Big sister, thank you." she whispered.

I laughed. "We are sisters, how can I thank you? "Pear Fragrance, it's okay. Everything will be over."

She nodded and did not say anything else, but let out a sigh of relief.

When he returned to the mansion, his father was actually sitting under the flower tree in the courtyard, basking in the sunlight. His complexion was very good, and Shangguan Bing was also drinking tea at the side.

"Father." I called out to her in unison.

There was a kind smile on his father's face. He looked at Pear Fragrance and asked with concern, "Xiang'er, how is it?"

Li Xiang went over and leaned behind her father in a spoiled manner, "Today, no one is a painting immortal."

"Oh, that's strange." There was a doting smile on his father's face. His pampered smile was never directed at me. He said softly, "It must be hot. Let the chef make the sweet water and the frozen sour plum soup. I knew you would like it."

Pear Fragrance picked it up and looked at me before saying, "Chu Xue, let the steward prepare a bowl for you!"

I shook my head and chuckled. "I don't like it." The more he ate, the more bitter his heart felt.

Father looked at Riko and asked, "Xiang'er, tell me about the competition. Is there anything new this time?"

I turned my head, but found that Shangguan Xue's eyes were filled with mockery. Was she mocking me? It's alright, it's not the same as this time, is it not? I am an iron wall.

Pear Fragrance said, "There's nothing much to say about that. In any case, there isn't a painting immortal. If I were to talk about painting, what most people would see is the < < Plum Blossom Sea of Snow > > that you taught me." That father of his, the Lin Clan, is truly hateful. Especially his daughter, she actually wanted to compete against him for that painting, hmph. "
