Concubine Liu and Concubine Li also praised a few words, and glanced at Nangong Cheng carefully. They saw her willow leaf eyebrows, lotus face, dignified and elegant demeanor, and she looked like the first daughter of a famous family.The two couldn't help but secretly nodded, the eldest girl from Nangong Mansion was indeed extraordinary.

"Look!" Someone in the hall suddenly exclaimed in a low voice, "Why are there butterflies flying over?"

Everyone followed the sound and saw a pair of colorful butterflies flapping their wings and flying over the heads of the people to Nangong Cheng's "Dragonfly Spotting Lotus", one of which landed on the lotus in the painting , lingering.

Everyone was amazed by this scene, and the queen was also eye-opening, praising: "The lotus in this painting actually attracts butterflies. This is really the first time I have seen it."

"I didn't expect that the real lotus outside the pavilion would not be as attractive to butterflies as the lotus in the painting. Miss Nangong's painting skills are really superb." Concubine Zhang covered her mouth and smiled.

The queen rewarded Nangong Cheng with a pair of glazed lotus hairpins.

After Nangong Cheng thanked him, he returned to his seat.When she was sitting down, she pretended to glance towards the front left inadvertently, and saw King Cheng nodded to her quickly, his eyes full of smiles and warmth seemed to say, you did a good job!

"Sister Cheng," Jiang Yixi, who was beside her, smiled and didn't notice her abnormality, and said in admiration, "I knew before that your drawing skills are superb, but I didn't know that you were so good at it. You must give me some pointers in the future. "

"Sister Xi, don't make fun of me." Nangong Cheng half bowed her head in embarrassment.After being praised by the queen, she didn't feel happy, but felt a little heavy in her heart.She played with the pair of glazed lotus hairpins in her hands, feeling a little guilty in her heart.

After all, she had failed her father's expectations of her. Just the day before yesterday, her father, Nangong Qin, had talked to her, meaning that he did not want her to marry into the royal family, but only wanted her to behave mediocrely today.

But King Cheng...

The original hesitation disappeared the moment she saw King Cheng today, and she wanted to fight for herself again, to fight for that happiness.Just like Cousin Xiao said, if you don’t fight for it now, you will definitely regret it in the future, and you will always think that it would be fine if you took that step at the beginning...

Nangong Cheng also made up her mind because of this, she didn't want to perform hastily, she hoped that she would perform well and leave a good impression on the queen, so that when King Cheng wanted to ask to marry her, it would be smoother.

Now that she has worked hard for their future, the next thing is to look at King Cheng, hoping that he can live up to her expectations...

Nangong Cheng closed his eyes, his eyes were extremely complicated.

"Miss Nangong is so versatile, I don't know if other girls in Nangong Mansion are also like this."

It was supposed to be the next girl Huang's turn to perform, but Zhang Fei's sudden words brought everyone's attention to Nangong Yue—the only other Nangong girl present was Nangong Yue!

Concubine Zhang hooked her red lips, and said with a smile that was not a smile: "Princess Yaoguang, I still remember that the emperor personally praised the princess Huizhi Lanxin. That is also second to none." She had a gentle and charming smile on her face, and her voice was gentle and gentle, but the words she said were full of meaning, trying to push Nangong Yue to the forefront, "The Princess is so outstanding, why not Let's put on a show, I believe that the princess will be able to overwhelm the crowd and win a leader."

Concubine Zhang's few words made many girls look at Nangong Yue with jealousy or envy.

Nangong Cheng frowned, and looked at Nangong Yue uneasily.Concubine Zhang's words made Nangong Yue a target of public criticism.
