(Feng Jiang Lei's POV)
People are greeting each other, some are toasting, others are merrily boasting their achievements nor their wealth, and some just want to join the celebration. My parents are always humble and my grandfather laugh with his peers. The emperor and the empress are welcoming, but the imperial children aren't, well I guess not all since their personalities differ from one another. And there are those haughty concubines who sell their relatives to marry into the royal family.
The stench of social climbers is too strong, and my nose suffers from them. They smile, they laugh and fake with one another. This is not just a party, it is a killing spree. People target one another, blame or plant explosive setups that would let them reach their goals or destroy someone else's. I hate this lifestyle, a lifestyle I've been living for a life and in another life, why don't they get tired?
"It seems like you're enjoying the party sister, you need to wait for more. Those noble ladies aren't done, they would battle for the throne any minute from now. It would be amusing, so let's sit back and watch." The princess suddenly sat beside me, why does she always need to pop up unexpectedly?
"I am expecting that 'amusing' part of the night. I think we just need more food and a wine, do you have popcorns here?" I joked
"Absolutely, I prepared it for the both of us earlier" she chuckled and let her maidservant serve more food, more wine and lots of popcorns.

"As we celebrate the birth and coronation of my son, Crown Prince Qin Dinxiang, I would like to take this opportunity to let every noble lady participate in a game. The winners will directly have a chance to enter the second round of the game. And the finalists after the second game will compete with the first prince, Qin Duyi in another game, and the winner will be able to grab the crown as the price. This is mandatory." The empress stand and offered a toast
"Let the games begin!" The emperor happily announced
"Can you hide me?" I asked the princess
"Nope, you're the generals' daughter. You need to win this time, you're a good match for my brother. You see, he needs a woman whose different from those clowns. And you are my best friend, I'll cheer for you." She patted my shoulder
"I don't even know your name" I smiled wryly
"Oh that I forgot. I am sixth princess Qin Daiyu, the eldest daughter of the imperial couple and the youngest child of the empress. So go on, don't shy away. We, twenty-first century women are not afraid of anything. I have your back." She patted me again
"You're overly confident" I said
"But you came from where I came, the knowledge we have far surpass every living being here, and you have an ace card. You came from the generals' house, so don't shame their name, and always remember that in this era you bring the name of your clan, we don't do things with independence here." She is too encouraging.
I shake my head and walk towards the center where all of the noble ladies are gathered.
She is right, I need to win this game. Not because I have a motive for the crown, but for the sake of my family's name and dignity. I cannot afford to lose. I am the generals' daughter.
