Chapter 1: Ugly Monsters Dare to Participate in the Draft

Next Chapter

Xue Jinyi's whole body hurt like falling apart, she just drank two more glasses of red wine, how could it hurt so much?

She subconsciously opened her eyes, not wanting the turbulent water to pour into her sockets and choke into her throat.

Oh no, she's drowning!

Xue Jinyi reacted instantly, and her survival instinct made her flutter her arms, letting her head out of the water, and trying to open her eyes with the stinging pain.

Vaguely, she saw countless figures standing on the shore, but they were laughing at something, and no one reached out to help.

"Help!" She shouted as hard as she could.

All it takes is a bamboo pole or a rope to keep her alive, but when the water floods her head again, no one wants to save her.

Xue Jinyi feels that her strength is losing little by little in the struggle, and the day after tomorrow is the day when she gets the actress crown, is it possible that tomorrow's newspaper headline will become "Xue Jinyi, a popular candidate for Best Actress, drowned in the company pool"?

She was not reconciled, and once again tried her best, fluttering out of the water, and opening her eyes again.

This time, a man's slender hand appeared in front of him, with distinct knuckles, which was very good-looking.

Without much thought, she immediately took the man's hand, and with the strength of his hand, climbed onto the shore.

"Huh......" Xue Jinyi had a sense of a trance of escaping death, and was just about to raise her head to thank the person who saved her, when the piercing ridicule sounded first.

"Look, the ugly monster dares to become the crown princess, this is the fate of such people who dare to participate in the draft, and now they are like a water dog, relieving the boredom of the sisters."

"Ah, it's really an honor for the eldest lady of the Weiguo Mansion to make us laugh and relieve our boredom."

"Miss Weiguo Mansion? Is she Xue Jinyi worthy of honor? Look at the surname Xue, our Fangyi is a veritable eldest lady of the Guogong Mansion! ”

Laughter rang out, but then a scream exploded.

"Oh my God, this is ...... His Royal Highness the King of Chu?! ”

Such a noble status, but the girls gathered around Xue Jinyi retreated again and again as if they were hiding from the plague, looking at the man with a long body in horror.

The man was unmoved, glanced at Xue Jinyi lightly, and said in a low voice: "This is not the place you should come, call yourself sick and go back." ”

Xue Jinyi didn't have time to say thank you, nor did she see his appearance clearly, the man had already turned to leave, the dark robe fluttered and fluttered between the walks, coupled with the indifferent gaze, so that the girls seemed to see the ghosts from the underworld, and turned their eyes away in panic, shrunk their heads, and didn't care about everyone's beautiful demeanor at all.

The man walked like the wind, and disappeared behind the Moon Cave Gate in a blink of an eye, and his identity made the girls forget to mock Xue Jinyi for a while.

"Have you heard, you will pick out the right one from the people who lost this time and become the princess of Chu!"

"I heard that the king of Chu ordered his wife to be forced, isn't this a death?"

"If you choose me, I'd rather become a nun!"

"Hehe, Xue Jinyi, someone saved you, why don't you hurry up and take the opportunity to entangle His Royal Highness the King of Chu? Aren't you the best at stalking? Wouldn't it be wonderful to repay the grace of saving your life with a personal promise, the ugly monster was killed and the world became more beautiful? ”

"If you want me to say, the reason why the King of Chu saved her was because he fell in love with her, right? His Royal Highness the King of Chu is not only from an 'extraordinary' background among the princes, but also has a unique taste! ”

Everyone laughed, and their eyes returned to the "soup chicken" sitting on the ground.

But Xue Jinyi didn't care why the young girls spoke so viciously, looking at the peach-colored dresses on the thin bodies, and the girls in ancient costumes, she understood-she actually traveled to ancient times after drinking a little wine in the company.

The cobblestones hurt a little in the buttocks, and they could laugh and laugh in the face of a drowning man, and she naturally understood that no one could come up to help her, so she simply propped up her arms and stood up.

"Xue Jinyi, go back! It's best not to go out in the future, and don't tell people that your surname is Xue when you go out! The Xue family can't afford your reputation to be so ruined! ”

A stern cold drink suddenly exploded, and then a pretty and bright girl appeared in Xue Jinyi's sight, she looked disdainful, as if she was stingy with even a look of charity and her, holding her arms proudly like a little princess.

Oh my God, what did this original owner do that hurt the heavens and reason, causing everyone to hate it so much, to the point of not being saved? Xue Jinyi looked around, and everywhere she looked, all she saw was disdain and good looks.

"Ladies and gentlemen," a middle-aged woman appeared in front of them, "please follow me to Chunfang Pavilion and wait for the summons of the emperor and queen...... Miss Xue, what's the matter with you? ”

"She-" someone sneered.

"I accidentally fell overboard." Xue Jinyi knew that what the person was going to say was definitely not a good thing, so she replied before her: "I'm sorry, where can I clean up?" ”

Get back? Flee like a defeated remnant, and be ridiculed and abused by this group of little girls?

This is not her Xue Jinyi's style!

No matter what the original owner did, now that she is standing here, this situation will not be allowed to happen again.

The girls looked a little surprised, how did Xue Jinyi, who had always behaved vulgarly, become so elegant?

The middle-aged woman sighed: "Fortunately, there is still half an hour, Su Xue, you can take Miss Xue to dress up again." All right, ladies and gentlemen, please come with me. ”

was about to meet the emperor and queen, so the girls stopped talking about Xue Jinyi, and happily followed the middle-aged woman and walked along the cobblestone path.

Xue Jinyi and a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl assigned by the middle-aged woman came to the pavilion not far away.

Su Xue looked indifferent, and said dryly: "Miss Xue, please tidy up as soon as possible, don't lose your honor in front of the holy car." ”

Xue Jinyi looked around, there were dressing tables in the room, and some delicate and clean dresses were placed on the hangers, she glanced at Su Xue, who had no intention of helping herself, and understood that everyone here wanted to embarrass her.

She shook her head helplessly, came to the bronze mirror, and finally saw the appearance of the original owner clearly, and couldn't help but gasp.

Through the conversation of the girls, it can be learned that today is the big day for the prince to choose a concubine, and everyone is trying their best to show their most beautiful appearance, and the original owner can be said to be doing the opposite!

The bun was scattered because of falling into the water, but the colorful velvet flowers and the cheesy gold and silver hairpins were still mixed between the dry and yellow hair, and the makeup on the face had been spent, and the rouge seemed to be pasted on the face with a pile of flour, which was weird like a monkey's buttocks. And the peach-colored skirt is gaudy and rustic, which is not worthy of the original owner's appearance and age at all, and will only make her look like a funny clown.

If this is not the original owner's aesthetic, then it is...... The people who dressed her up really hated her!

Xue Jinyi shook her head and sighed, she didn't have the face to appear in front of everyone in this outfit, if she was in front of the emperor and empress, she would be pulled out directly and beheaded, right?!

Fortunately, she has acted in a lot of costume dramas and is familiar with ancient makeup and costumes, so she simply rolled up her sleeves neatly and prepared to do a big job!

Su Xue saw her choosing clothes in front of the shelf, and sneered: "Miss Xue, no matter how you dress up, it's in vain......"

Even a maid can bully the original owner? How useless is that! Xue Jinyi turned around suddenly, strode in front of Su Xue, and said coldly, "I remember that I just asked you to help me clean up, right?" Either shut up and stand here, or wait for me to sue and wait for you to be beaten? ”

Su Xue looked unconvinced, but just met Xue Jinyi's cold gaze, and there seemed to be a compelling momentum in those clear eyes, which made her can't help but shrink her neck, pout, and stop talking.

is just a bully who is afraid of the hard, Xue Jinyi directly and unceremoniously closed the door.

Su Xue waited until she almost dozed off, and seeing that the time was almost up, she knocked on the door and shouted lazily, "Miss Xue, are you okay?" You'll be punished for delaying......"

However, according to the appearance of this Miss Xue, no matter how hard she tries to dress up, she may not want to go because she is ashamed, right?

She scoffed, but listened to the sound of the door opening.

"Let's go."

Do you still have the face to go? The little girl was stunned, looked up, and when she saw the appearance of the person who spoke clearly, her eyes widened blankly, "Who are you?" ”
