Chapter 320: Pressure 1
Luo Jingshen didn't expect that someone would dare to question him. He turned around and met Murong Yue's pale and stubborn face.
Although she was very scared and her shoulders were shaking, she still stood up for Ji Zihang.
Luo Jingshen sneered in his heart. Ji Zihang had just rejected his face. How could he possibly give him a high score now?
He gave him 85 points out of consideration for Ji Qingqing.
Luo Jingshen said in a deep voice: "For people with many families, who doesn't have a few beds at home? It's impossible to let your children sleep on the floor, right?"
"So I think this folding bed is strong on the outside but weak on the inside. It has its uses, but it is not good enough to benefit the people."
Murong Yue was speechless for a moment.
For a moment, she couldn't find any way to refute Luo Jingshen's words.
After all, what the other party said makes a lot of sense.
Murong Yue bit her lip and said softly, "Please forgive me, Your Highness, I am being rude!"
"It's not that abrupt, but why don't you introduce something you designed, Ms. Murong?"
Murong Yue was slightly stunned, then looked up at Luo Jingshen.
She said: "According to the order, shouldn't the second one be Princess Ye?"
Ji Yuntang's mouth twitched. She was just a bystander, why was she involved again?
However, she admired the girl's courage.
Ji Zihang didn't say anything, but she stood up and openly provoked Luo Jingshen for Ji Zihang.
Doesn't she know that Luo Jingshen is notoriously petty?
Ji Yuntang didn't want to see the two of them arguing, so he said, "It doesn't matter who goes first or last. Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has spoken, Miss Murong should go first!"
Murong Yue's eyes darkened slightly, her hands gradually clenched, and she felt even more disgusted with Ji Yuntang!
She had already thought about it and planned to go on stage later with a long time to prepare, but now she was pushed to the second place by Ji Yuntang.
Murong Yue couldn't calm down for a long time. She stood up and introduced incoherently: "The thing designed by your servant is called the Hundred Changes Drawer."
"The reason why I thought of this drawer is because I have a lot of small items in my room. Sometimes I put them away and then I can't find them. It takes a long time to find them."
"So... so I designed this to store some small things."
As she spoke, her voice became lower and lower, and her scalp was tingling with nervousness.
She felt that she would definitely be out this time.
Unexpectedly, after she finished speaking, Mei Zhuyu was the first to stand up.
"A versatile large drawer. It is very flexible and convenient for storing small items. It can be placed there as a decoration when not in use, and it won't take up much space."
"This design of Ms. Murong is very good to me."
Mei Zhuyu directly gave her 95 points, and Murong Yue was stunned!
She didn't expect that even though she didn't mention the people at all, let alone their food, clothing, housing and transportation, she could still gain the recognition of Master Mei.
She would be lying if she said she wasn't excited, and immediately thanked him, "Thank you, Master Mei."
At this moment, Murong Yue seemed to have forgotten about Ji Zihang.
She didn't notice Ji Zihang's face, which was darker than charcoal, but that didn't mean Luo Jingshen didn't see it.
He sneered in his heart, looking at the people who flattered him having higher scores than him. He wondered what Ji Zihang felt?
Luo Jingshen said directly: "I also think that what Miss Murong designed is much more useful than what Mr. Ji San designed."
"I give Miss Murong 93 points. I hope you will keep up the good work and bring honor to the Royal Academy."
After receiving recognition from two important figures in succession, Murong Yue was extremely excited. She felt that she might be the chosen one.
She had signed up for the competition only because Ji Zihang had signed up. She wanted to follow him and let him see her literary talent and value.
But now, Murong Yue felt that she was no worse than Ji Zihang, and might even be better than him.
After all, in the arithmetic competition just now, her results were comparable to Ji Zihang's.
The more Murong Yue thought about it, the more she felt that this time she might really become the first female crown prince of Dongchen Kingdom.
Thinking of this, she said with a shy face: "Thank you, Your Highness. I will continue to work hard."
When Ji Qingqing saw this scene, her eyes became increasingly angry and she wanted to crush the teacup in her hand.
"Murong Yue, this bitch, what does she mean by that?"
"If it weren't for me and my third brother, how could she be qualified to sign up for the Canglang Poetry Contest? It would be fine if she didn't know how to be grateful, but now she dares to stab my third brother in the back?"
And as for Luo Jingshen, Ji Qingqing didn't understand because they had clearly agreed before that Luo Jingshen would help Ji Zihang win the championship.
But now, he seemed more like he was against Ji Zihang.
Cui Liu consoled her, "Second Miss, let that bitch Murong Yue be arrogant for a while. Anyway, with the Third Young Master's score, she has already successfully advanced to the next round. The questions in the following exams will only become more and more difficult. I don't believe she can beat the Third Young Master."
Ji Qingqing said viciously: "If Murong Yue really dares to step on my third brother to get ahead, I will make her pay the price."
In her opinion, since Murong Yue likes Ji Zihang, she should give him points and use her own shortcomings to highlight Ji Zihang's excellence.
This is what she should do.
Instead, he showed off everywhere and made Ji Zihang feel embarrassed.
When he goes out in the future, others will only think that Ji Zihang, a child of destiny, is not even as good as Murong Yue, a young girl.
The Yongning Marquisate could not afford to lose face like this.
Next, other candidates also introduced their own designs.
Jiang Yunheng designed a waterwheel. He said: "my country has a long drought period every year, and it is difficult for people to get water for daily life. They have to go to the distant mountains to fetch water every day. Generally, they have to go back and forth several times to fill the water tank at home, and they can only use brute force to fetch water."
"This waterwheel uses the water turbine of the pump barrel to easily draw water from the well below, saving a lot of manpower and time for people who draw water."
After Jiang Yunheng finished speaking, Cheng Rushan commented: "The waterwheel designed by Mr. Jiang is based on the difficulty of the people in getting water, and helps them reduce their burden in the process of fetching water. I think it is very good and very practical."
"I think when the product is ready, the people will be grateful for your design from the bottom of their hearts."
Jiang Yunheng smiled gently. There was no pride on his face for having received a high score, nor was there any complacency. Instead, he was very humble.
He said in a gentle voice: "It is Yun Heng's lifelong honor to be able to reduce the burden on the people. Yun Heng dare not ask for anything else."
Cheng Rushan was even more satisfied with his attitude. He liked Jiang Yunheng's humility and willingness to study.
