Chapter 619: Awakening of Country A’s Women

Translator: Lord bluefire

Ji Wuyou, who was standing behind Shen Ruojing, suddenly became nervous.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, he quietly walked behind

Shen Ruojing under the guise of patrolling and then whispered, “Your Highness, Princess Daisy’s calligraphy skill is really good. Now that Karl is having her write, it must be to suppress you. When they ask for your opinion later, you should praise her lavishly and then showcase your own strengths.”

After saying this, Ji Wuyou paused for a moment, thinking of preserving Shen Ruojing’s self-esteem. After that, he asked tactfully, “Your Highness, what are you good at?”

What was she good at?

This put Shen Ruojing in a difficult position.

She seemed to be a little good at everything, but as for what she was best at, she couldn’t say.

As Shen Ruojing hesitated, Ji Wuyou couldn’t help but ask, “How about music?”

Shen Ruojing reflexively asked, “Piano? Or violin? Or perhaps the guqin? ‘

Ji Wuyou. “?”

He had seen the sisters in his family learn these things, and it was already impressive if they could master one of them. (Could the Princess know all of them? No…)

(Looking at the Princess’s expression, could it be that she only has beginner-level skills in all of them?)

Ji Wuyou was not very familiar with Shen Ruojing’s situation in China, so he tentatively asked, “Which of these three instruments are you best at?” Shen Ruojing. “…All of them are fine, I guess. ‘

” ” Ji WUY0U immediately wanted to change the topic, so he coughed and asked, “Do you know flower arrangement?”

Shen Ruojing. ( I really don’t know this one.)

She had never specifically learned flower arrangement, so she didn’t understand the principles behind it.

Ji Wuyou continued to ask, “How about performing a tea ceremony? ‘

Shen Ruojing shook her head blankly again.

Ji Wuyou clenched his teeth. “What about chess in the realms of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting?”

Shen Ruojing had never learned chess, so she coughed and said, “l am better at fishing.”

Ji Wuyou.

He was almost speechless. (Your Highness, can you learn at least one skill?!)

What should they do now? Would they be overshadowed by Princess Daisy today?

While Ji Wuyou was discussing with Shen Ruojing, people nearby were also eavesdropping on their conversation.

A few noblewomen became a bit anxious.

They often competed with each other, but today they were able to go out because of the Crown Princess, so they liked the Crown Princess very much and wanted her to win the scene.

A few women walked over to Shen Ruojing, and one of them said, “Your Highness, I am from the Luo family. My sister is Princess Consort Luo, and I can write some characters. Shall I take your place later?’

Shen Ruojing turned her head and saw a woman who indeed resembled Princess Consort Luo, sitting beside her with an eager expression.

Shen Ruojing hesitated for a moment, coughed, and suddenly asked, “What should I call you?”

Princess Consort Luo and Shen Qianhui were of the same generation, so Princess Consort Luo’s younger sister, though she looked only about twenty years old, indeed held a higher position than Shen Ruojing in terms of seniority.

The sister of Princess Consort Luo was named Luo Yan. She was also proud and arrogant. However, her ambitions were different from the Princess Consorts, who wanted to become Queen, bear a Prince, and be the favorite in the harem.

Luo Yan had been watching foreign videos since she was young and knew that other countries treated men and women equally.

Hence, she wanted to prove herself, knowing that she was a better student than her brothers. But no one in her family acknowledged her.

She felt invisible.

After that, the establishment of the Crown Princess gave her hope. She hoped to work with the Crown Princess in the future, rather than being married off to an unknown man and spending her life giving birth to children.

As Luo Yan thought about this, the head of the Luo family called her, “Luo Yan, what are you doing? Come sit down!”

Luo Yan hesitated and looked back at the head of the Luo family.

Although Luo was grateful to Shen Ruojing because she found out the cause of Princess Consort Luo’s death, he still had reservations about her taking the position of the Crown Princess. In his opinion, women should stay at home and raise children. How could they become officials?

If women became officials and went on to build careers, who would give birth to children then?

The head of the Luo family looked at Shen Ruojing, thinking that if she were to make a fool of herself today, they might be able to convince the King to abolish the Crown Princess. If that failed, they could always adopt a child from a side branch of the royal family!

Although most of the royal family had been killed by the Queen Dowager, there were still survivors from the side branches.

They had recently established contact with a young prince from a side branch. If they could support him in taking the throne, the Luo family’s status would surpass that of the Yan family!

Luo Yan looked at her father and then back at Shen Ruojing. For some reason, she suddenly felt that if she gave up today, she might really give up the chance to escape the confines of her family.

She didn’t want to miss this opportunity, so she bit her lips and said, “Father, this matter concerns the dignity of our country. I cannot obey!”

Luo         immediately scolded her in a low voice, “What are you trying to do? Do you want to compete with Princess Daisy? Can you compare to her? Do you know why Princess Daisy is able to represent her country on this visit? This is because her calligraphy skill is incredible!” Luo Yan clenched her fists tightly. “But I still want to try.”

As the two argued, Daisy had begun writing in the center of the room.

A blonde, blue-eyed woman holding a brush looked somewhat out of place, but her hand was steady as she wrote, each stroke strong and pleasing to the eye.

Soon after, Daisy finished a piece of calligraphy.

She then held it up for everyone to see.

The characters were powerful and seemed to penetrate the paper.

Luo Yan stared at the writing, completely stunned.

She had been working hard to improve her calligraphy, but she hadn’t expected Princess Daisy to be so skilled. This realization filled her with a deep sense of defeat.

Luo sneered, “Do you see? Princess Daisy can visit our country because her abilities are on par with men! And you? Your calligraphy is nothing compared to hers. What can you bring to the competition? Come back here! Girls should behave like girls! Your duty is to marry and raise children!” At this moment, Luo Yan felt extremely down.

Her strongest skill was calligraphy, but now she found herself inferior to Princess Daisy.

Luo Yan was deeply hurt.

Her father had always mocked the Crown Princess for her position, and now she understood the gap between her and Princess Daisy.

Feeling somewhat desperate, she looked at Shen Ruojing, bowed slightly, and then whispered, “Your Highness, I’m sorry.”

Perhaps she was only suited for marrying and raising children after all..
