Therefore, she had to win the next match.
The subsequent plan must also succeed!
The Sixth Princess was overjoyed and thanked Lin Xiaoyue repeatedly.
She also promised that she would do her best.
After a while, Eunuch Hu finally returned.
He announced that he would bring a few people to the hall.
Lin Xiaoyue sorted out her emotions and left with Eunuch Hu along with the others.
At this moment, not only was Chu Jin’s envoy present in the front hall, but there were also many civil and military officials of the Great Yan.
Emperor Yan chatted with the two princes sent by Chu Jin. His attitude was quite enthusiastic.
However, the two princes of Chu Jin were rather arrogant. The ministers of Great Yan were displeased.
But even so, no one dared to say anything.
With the appearance of Lin Xiaoyue and the others, there was finally more discussion in the hall.
The civil and military officials had long known about the selection of Arithmetic Masters in the palace, and they also knew that in the end, a woman had won the first place.
However, many people had objections to this.
Great Yan was full of talents, yet they had to rely on a woman to compete with Chu Jin’s envoy. It was truly shameful.
Some people even felt that Lin Xiaoyue’s title was probably exaggerated.
In short, this group of ancient people had a lot of prejudice against women.
Actually, this was understandable.
After all, even Emperor Yan had judged women back then. He even felt that the Imperial Advisor was colluding with Lin Xiaoyue.
Compared to the whispers of the courtiers of the Great Yan, the two princes from Chu Jin did not say anything.
However, his eyes were unbridled as he stared at Lin Xiaoyue and the Sixth Princess who were walking in front.
When he realized that they were all beauties, his eyes were filled with frivolity.
Then, the two of them looked at each other with interest in their eyes.
At the same time, Xu Yan and the other two sitting below them also looked at Lin Xiaoyue and the others.
After seeing Lin Xiaoyue, they all had different expressions.
Two of them were surprised, but the white-bearded old man, Xu Yan, frowned when he saw this.
He actually sent a little girl to compete with him.
Did Liu Wuji have no one else to send?
Yes, he had received news yesterday that his opponent was a girl who was not even seventeen years old.
Previously, he thought that the news was deliberately released by the Great Yan to lower his guard. He did not expect it to be true.
“Long live the emperor!” Lin Xiaoyue did not care about this. She followed the Sixth Princess forward and bowed to Emperor Yan.
A smile appeared on Emperor Yan’s face.
“Rise.” He said.
He didn’t care much about the expressions of the civil and military officials in the hall, as well as the people from Chu Jin.
He was really optimistic about Lin Xiaoyue now.
Lin Xiaoyue’s performance in the previous assessment was needless to say. The questions sent into the palace by the Imperial Advisor’s residence last night had once again shocked him.
At that time, when he found out that the Imperial Advisor had only chosen three questions from the existing questions, he was a little puzzled.
Then, he looked at the ten questions and asked the mathematicians to try to solve them.
In the end, other than the three questions selected from the existing questions, none of those people could answer them.
He believed that he had some talent in arithmetic, but when he saw the question, he felt that he had no idea where to start.
He still had to look at the answer and bring it into the question to confirm that the answer was correct.
Moreover, for some questions, even if he saw the answers, he could not determine the accuracy of the answers.
In short, he really liked those seven difficult questions.
He also admired Lin Xiaoyue who came up with these seven questions.
Emperor Yan looked at Lin Xiaoyue with a smile, his attitude unusually good.
Soon, he introduced Chu Jin to Lin Xiaoyue.
“Greetings, Your Highnesses.” Lin Xiaoyue’s attitude was calm. She did not look around and bowed respectfully to the two princes.
The two princes, Chu and Jin, had frivolous smiles on their faces.
“There is no need to be so polite.”
“Before this, 1 heard that the Great Yan is a land of outstanding talents. Seeing you today, 1 think it’s true.” Prince Chu stared at Lin Xiaoyue.
“Yeah, it’s said that beauty comes from the land of the Great Yan. I admire your beauty.” Prince Jin said. A pair of thieving eyes also glanced at Lin Xiaoyue, extremely impudent.
The hall was in an uproar.
The ministers of the Great Yan were furious.
How dare a man from Chu Jin humiliate Madam Li in front of the monarch and ministers of Great Yan?
Although they were dissatisfied that the Emperor had sent a woman to represent the Great Yan, they were not happy about it.
Madam Li was representing the Great Yan.
The actions of the two princes, Chu and Jin, were a slap to the Great Yan’s face.
Among the courtiers, there were some who sympathized with Lin Xiaoyue. However, at this moment, there were more who were annoyed at Lin Xiaoyue..
