Chapter 42
At this moment, even Gu Zhirong, who had always been calm, couldn't help but feel a little anxious. After all, when I was drunk in the past, I was at home, and it was a big deal for the people in the house to see it, and as long as the old lady spoke, no one dared to chew their tongues. But now the situation is different, this is a public place, but there are all the ladies and small jasper from all over the country, all of them are golden, a little bit of difference, it will also be known to the world, not to mention such a secret thing as drunkenness and gaffe?
Gu Zhirong could imagine that if she was drunk and made a fool of herself on the spot, those who were famous in this game would not know how to laugh at her, and how they would laugh at her behind her back.
Wen Yan glanced at Gu Zhirong worriedly, and turned to the prince: "His Royal Highness the Prince, in fact, Miss Gu doesn't know how to drink."
"Can't drink?" said the prince indifferently, "Have you ever heard of a woman in the Jokhang Kingdom who can't drink? What a joke! Who doesn't know that the women of my Jokhang Kingdom are chaste and bold, using wine instead of water, making wine at every house, and the fragrance of wine is overflowing in every household!"
Speaking of this, he glanced at Gu Zhirong: "Isn't it that Miss Gu refuses to give this prince this face?"
Wen Yan couldn't help but be startled, this was too serious, she hurriedly laughed and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is laughing, in the whole world, who dares not to give you face?"
Gu Zhirong frowned slightly, she could see it. This prince seems to be targeting her as well. Or it can be said that this prince has been on the throne for too long, he will not be sympathetic to the people's feelings, and will only act according to his own intentions, and will not take into account the feelings of others at all, let alone allow others to disobey him, this is the arrogance of the superior.
But he is the crown prince, the ruler of the world in the future, who would dare to go against his will?
Miss Gu Er and Miss Gu Fourth in the audience saw the prince's face and hidden anger, and they couldn't help but turn pale with fright. You must know that the Marquis of Yuanning is only a hereditary title, and there is no real power, and the rise and fall depends on the words of the ruler. Now that he has offended the prince, if the prince holds a grudge in the future and takes revenge on the Marquis of Yuanning, then how can he get it!
So, the two sisters looked at each other and hurriedly walked onto the stage.
The fourth lady gave a salute to the crown prince Yingying, and said coquettishly: "Your Royal Highness the prince, my fifth sister rarely goes out and doesn't understand this rule, you have a lot of adults, just let her go." ”
The second young lady approached Gu Zhirong, close to her ear, and said in a low voice: "Little Wu, don't tell me that you don't know what the consequences of offending the prince are. If you do this well, I will definitely give the old lady a blessing when I go back, lift your lockdown, and let you come and go freely in and out of the house like us from now on, what do you think of this quid pro quo?"
Gu Zhirong groaned, she would make a fool of herself when she was drunk, but in order to avoid accidents, she had already taken hangover drugs in advance. Although, with her unusually sharp reaction to alcohol, the drugs didn't do much at all. However, at least you can resist it for a while. She hurried to take advantage of this time period and rushed back to the house, so that she would not be embarrassed in public. What's more, it is a great temptation to be able to lift the ban and come and go freely inside and outside the house like the second and fourth misses, after all, freedom is more important to her than anything else. Besides, the current situation is related to the future of the Yuanning Marquis Mansion, and it seems that she can't help but drink it.
"Okay. She reluctantly agreed, raised her head, and stared at the second young lady, which was the price of her freedom in exchange for hurting her body: "Second sister, you must remember what you promised me." ”
The second young lady Gu Yuanfang was stunned by Gu Zhirong's fierce eyes, and subconsciously said: "Sister, don't worry, since my sister said it, she will definitely do it." ”
Gu Zhirong nodded reassuringly, in this way, she would have no worries.
Seeing that Gu Zhirong had already negotiated here, the fourth lady hurriedly used her unique long-sleeved dancing skills: "Prince, let my little five toast you, how about it?"
Although it is said that he respects the prince, the prince originally did not drink, but he had to force others to drink, so that he would not lose the face of his prince. This prince is really an arrogant and unreasonable person. Gu Zhirong thought to himself, can a prince of such a character really be able to sit firmly without the slightest tolerance for people?
The crown prince glanced at King Su, who didn't mind and walked out slowly. He was originally handsome, and he lived in the palace for a long time, and his gestures were elegant and regular, with a unique graceful demeanor, just a casual movement of holding a paper fan, but also glowing with infinite charm and intoxication. Gu Zhirong thought, such a person, I am afraid that if he comes out in his life, he will harm countless girls in the world. She looked down the stage, and really saw that the eyes of more than half of the people were focused on King Su's body, as if there was no one else in this world, but he was alone.
She had to step back a bit, lest she get too close to King Su. In the countless obsessive eyes of the audience, any close contact between her and King Su will cause endless jealousy, she is tantamount to being used as cannon fodder, she still understands this truth.
At this time, King Su chuckled: "Isn't Miss Gu afraid of me?"
Gu Zhirong had to look up at him, thinking that it must be her retreating behavior that made him think she was afraid, she bit her lip, forced to take two steps forward, and said, "I...... I'm scared of life. ”
King Su almost laughed. Who snatched the hairpin from his hand in the water pavilion, didn't even bother to look at him, turned his head and left?
But the corners of her lips that rose slightly couldn't hide the smile: "I just heard that the second girl Gu and the fourth girl Gu said that the fifth girl stays at home on weekdays, and it is necessary to be afraid of life, but don't worry, I won't eat you." ”
The prince, who has always been cold, rarely jokes like this in front of people, and even the attendant Wei Bing beside him widened his eyes slightly, looking at his own prince in disbelief.
Gu Zhirong's face turned slightly red. She really didn't look away, this King Su is really the character of a disciple, and he can talk to a strange girl so easily, and the romance in this bone really can't be hidden if he wants to, but the original owner of this body is obsessed with him.
She took two steps closer to him, suddenly leaned slightly to him, and said in a low voice: "King Su, please respect yourself, this place is not comparable to your backyard, so as not to lose the identity of the prince!"
After that, he immediately retreated, and turned to Wen Yan with a smile: "Sister Wen, it's rare to drink with King Su today, pour me a glass of wine, how about I respect the prince first?"
Wen Yan looked at Gu Zhirong a little blankly, unable to come back to her senses for a while. A person who gets drunk as soon as she gets drunk actually takes the initiative to beg for wine, and she doesn't know whether she should pour wine or not.
King Su stood quietly on the side, with a faint smile between his eyebrows.
"Miss Wen!" the prince exclaimed in displeasure, "Don't you have any wine in the Piaoxiang Society?"
"I'm going to fall, I'm going to fall right away. Wen Yan glanced at Gu Zhirong quite sympathetically, walked to the side and took two luminous glasses, filled them with wine, and handed them to King Su first, and then to Gu Zhirong.
Gu Zhirong looked at Wen Yan gratefully, she knew that Wen Yan was kind and poured the wine with the lowest degree, but for a person who can't drink a drop of wine at all, is there a difference between high alcohol and low alcohol wine?!
