"Madam Ming, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to do embroidery on the spot!"

Hearing this, Song Yuanzhu looked over with burning eyes as if he had seen a savior.

Zheng Yan was seen standing among the ladies with a look of disapproval on her face. She was extremely beautiful, and was obviously a girl who was pampered in royal wealth. Even though there were three princes and many academy teachers present, she was not stage-frightened.

"We sisters usually use our own embroidery threads, needles, and cloths. It would be inconvenient to move to the academy now!"

Song Yuanzhu nodded in agreement and looked at Madam Ming hopefully, only to see that she seemed to have been prepared. She raised her hand and ordered someone to bring in the things that had been prepared.

"Don't worry, ladies. Her Honor Empress has already prepared the needles, threads and embroidery tables for you. The palace has a wide variety of embroidery threads in various colors, so you girls will not be wronged."

Sure enough, everyone looked at the embroidery threads that the eunuchs brought to the stage. There were all kinds of them, even the extremely rare embroidery threads !

The sharp-eyed girl even saw a basket of jade and pearls to embellish the embroidery patterns . It was indeed very thoughtful, and even more precious and gorgeous than the embroidery threads at home.

Princess Wu You was confused when she saw this. She wanted to delay for a while, but she couldn't think of any way. She looked at Princess An with a pleading look, but she saw that Mother Concubine also had an unexpected look on her face...

During the conversation, the eunuchs had already set up the venue. The other shortlisted girls joined hands and walked forward to choose embroidery threads, thinking about the content of the embroidery pattern in their hearts .

Qingyu , Ge Zhang and Zhang Qingtao went forward to choose together. Ge Zhang wanted to chat with Qingyu , but found that she was only holding black and white embroidery threads, which made her curious.

Just as they were about to ask a question, they heard another commotion from the back, and the three of them stood up and looked back, just in time to see Princess Wu You waving her hand violently and slapping the maid next to her hard in the face.

"Bitch, you are so ignorant that you dare to cut my hand!"

When Princess An heard her daughter crying out in pain, she quickly led people forward.

Princess Wu You's right hand was hanging limply in front of her chest. There was a long bloodstain on the back of her hand, which was as white as jade. It was shocking to see.

An Ying Ran and Shi Xiang gathered around her, looking anxious.

Everything happened so fast that they only talked to each other for a moment before they heard Princess screaming.

In fact, they were aware of Princess Wu You's embroidery skills. They were worried that her embroidery would be exposed and she would get angry at them. Now that they saw that she had decided to withdraw from the competition, they felt a little relieved.

"You slut , how dare you hurt Princess! Come, drag her away and give her fifty lashes!" Princess An shouted angrily, pretending to gently pull her daughter's wrist, calling her her darling, " Yan'er , how's your hand?"

Zheng Yan originally just wanted to scratch herself lightly, but she didn't expect to cut so long without knowing the right amount. She looked quite scared , and two tears squeezed out of her red eyes. "Mother Concubine, it hurts so much, will it never heal?"

Princess An was both angry and furious , and glared at her daughter when no one was paying attention.

This little rascal, who usually asks her to pick up the embroidery needle as if it were her life, has to show off. Now she is afraid of losing face and can only hurt herself. She is really a debt collector, and she just came out of her stomach!

After this incident, Princess Wu You naturally could not participate in the next competition.

Seeing this scene, Song Yuanzhu's mind was also in turmoil. He glanced at the teacup beside him, wondering if he would be exempted from the competition if he was scalded by boiling water.

A leisurely voice came from behind, "Sister, do you want to destroy yourself? It is reasonable for Princess Wu You to withdraw alone. If both girls withdraw at the same time, I wonder what people will say."

Song Yuanzhu turned around and saw Qingyu looking at her with a smile.

"Princess Wu You originally wanted to withdraw without attracting attention. If people talk about her because of her sister, I wonder if Princess An will let her sister go?"
