On the day of Duanyang, the Songling River has lost its former tranquility, and the people who came to see the dragon boat race surrounded by the water are impassable, and they are crowded to see that it is not the dragon boat in the river that is ready to go, but the prince and the children of the family who sit high on the Wangjiang platform not far from the river, competing to see their demeanor. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

When Gu Yuan got off the donkey cart, he saw a crowd of people who were blocked by the guards on the side of the road full of anticipation, and when he saw this group of sisters-in-law get out of the carriage, the crowd suddenly boiled, and they all stood on tiptoe and squeezed forward, wanting to take a closer look at these noble sisters-in-law.

"Look, look at that carriage, it's the carriage of the Li family in Longxi, and that sister-in-law is the sister-in-law of the Li family in Longxi!"

"Look at that car, look at that car! It's Qinghe Lu's sister-in-law! It's so beautiful! ”

"That sister-in-law of the Lu family is really noble and extraordinary, only such a century-old noble family can raise such a beautiful and noble sister-in-law!"

The people gathered around the Wangjiang platform were already attracted by Lu Xianniang's beauty and elegance, and Qi Qi lost his mind, and his mouth was full of admiration and praise.

Lu Xianniang has long been accustomed to this kind of pursuit, she got out of the carriage, took Li Huiniang and other sisters-in-law, and helped the maid step by step towards Wangjiangtai, Gu Yuan followed behind them, dressed in ordinary clothes, and looked very inconspicuous among the richly dressed sisters, but she didn't care, she was not ashamed, and her steps were calm as usual.

Dozens of couches were spread out on the Wangjiang platform, and the prince and the princes of the family sat on the couch and drank wine, looking at the dragon boats on the Songling River, and when they heard the sound of the maids, they all looked back. It's just that their eyes stopped for a moment on Lu Xianniang, and they all stayed on Gu Yuan, who was walking last.

The prince glanced at the eunuch behind him, and the eunuch hurriedly stepped forward and stopped in front of Gu Yuan: "Gu's Ayuan, His Royal Highness has ordered, let you come over." ”

Gu Yuan had to follow the eunuch to the stage, and after she saluted, the prince pointed to a couch not far away: "You just sit here, you have something to say." ”

The couch seat was next to the prince's seat, sitting opposite Xie Xuan, the gentlemen of the Jiankang family, but it was where the seat on the Wangjiang platform was, and Gu Yuan would not be able to sit in terms of identity anyway, and for a while, the sisters-in-law who came up with Gu Yuan were stunned, and their eyes looking at Gu Yuan were even more full of hostility and dissatisfaction.

Gu Yuan didn't squirm, he owed, turned around and walked to the couch and sat down, before he spoke: "I don't know what His Highness called Ah Yuan over?" ”

The prince took a sip of the wine syrup that Lan Ji brought and sneered: "Your sister-in-law is not as shy as those sisters-in-law of the family, but it is interesting. ”

"I called you here today to make another bet with you, the previous bet, although what you wrote is absolutely impossible, but it will take a few days for the battle situation in the north to arrive, and I will leave you alive for a few days!" The prince pointed to the more than ten dragon boats under the Wangjiang platform, "Today's dragon boat race, if it looks like this, it will be boring, it is better to make a bet with you, and bet on which dragon boat can come out on top." ”

Everyone didn't expect that the prince was planning to gamble on dragon boat racing with this Gu sister-in-law, there was an uproar for a while, and there was a lot of discussion, and looking at Gu Yuan's gaze couldn't help but bring some pity, this sister-in-law originally gambled with the prince on the northern border war is already a settled settlement, but she can only survive for a few more days, and now the prince is going to gamble with her on the dragon boat race, I am afraid that if you are not careful, you will lose your life today.

Lu Xianniang glanced at Gu Yuan and sighed lightly: "Although she is a side branch, after all, she is also from a family, I only blame her for being too unconscious, and her status is low, but she wants to act willfully." ”

Zhu Jing nodded hurriedly and responded: "What Xian Niang said is extremely true, she is obviously a lowly side branch, but if she has to show her face and talk about it, she will be given death today, and she deserves it!" ”

The sisters-in-law all looked gloating, only Li Huiniang and Lu Xiu couldn't bear it, looked at Gu Yuan and sighed.

Gu Yuan was not stunned, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, if you are making a bet, you need to have a bet, I don't know what Your Highness is betting on?" She actually took the gamble.

The prince raised his eyebrows: "It's really bold, and it is so simply agreed." He looked at Gu Yuan, "Gu doesn't want your life today, and when the war report comes, I will feed you to the black panther, then it will be interesting." ”

"Then bet five hundred gold." The prince smiled presumptuously, "You sister-in-law, I'm afraid there is nothing else to gamble on." He beckoned, and the eunuch hurriedly asked people to bring up several plates of heavy gold ingots and put them in front of Gu Yuan.

But she doesn't even have fifty gold now, okay! Gu Yuan wanted to roll her eyes, she is not the world-famous Mrs. Beiyanyuan now, she is just a side sister-in-law who is fostered in the Gu Mansion, and all the family property and wealth are still in charge of the Gu Mansion, she doesn't even have a body, where to get five hundred gold and put it here to gamble with the prince.

Seeing that she didn't move, the Lang Jun sisters-in-law on the Wangjiang platform were a little puzzled for a while, but Zhu Jing laughed first and said coquettishly: "Ah Yun, isn't it that your clan sister can't take out the five hundred gold bets at all?" "A mere 500 gold, although it is already a great wealth in the eyes of ordinary people, but for these families, it is just a drop in the bucket, and they naturally don't take it seriously.

For a while, many Lang Jun sisters-in-law present laughed, and even the dignified Lu Xianniang couldn't help laughing, covering her face with a fan, but her gaze at Gu Yuan was even more contemptuous.

Xie Xuan frowned slightly, and said a few words to the little servant standing behind him, the little servant bowed and retreated, and after a while, a servant came forward with several plates of gold, and placed it next to the five hundred gold that the prince had ordered before: "This is the five hundred gold bet of Aunt Yuan." ”

Gu Yuan was stunned, and the rest of Lang Jun's sisters-in-law who were still laughing at Gu Yuan before were also stunned, and the prince's eyes gradually turned cold, and he looked at Xie Xuan: "Xie Sanlang also wants to meddle in this gambling game?" ”

Xie Xuan stood up, his long jade posture was as straight as a pine, and a peaceful smile appeared on his warm and jade-like face: "Your Highness, Xuan respects Aunt Yuan's piano skills, and gives five hundred gold rights as a bet on Aunt Yuan's gamble this time." ”

Gu Yuan looked at Xie Xuan in a daze, she didn't expect Xie Xuan to make this bet for herself, and even praised her, which was something she didn't have in her previous life. In the previous life, although Gu Yuan tried his best to get close to these sisters-in-law of Lang Jun, he was always looked down upon by them, even if he learned from them in every word and deed, he was also made fun of Dong Shi Xiaofeng, and Lang Jun of Xie Xuan's status never looked at her. In this life, she didn't want to cling to these family members anymore, she just wanted to protect herself, but she didn't expect to get his appreciation, which made Gu Yuan very surprised.

What was even more surprised was the sisters-in-law at the table, Gu Yun almost screamed out loud: "What is she, Xie Jia Saburo is willing to speak for her, and he has to bet five hundred gold for her!" ”

Gu Yao didn't speak, but her delicate face was pale, she was wearing a pink Ruyi embroidered large-sleeved shirt and dress today, and the gorgeous dress had been wrinkled by her hands at this time, she bit her lip and looked at Gu Yuan without saying a word.

"Xie Sanlang, do you want to win the five hundred gold of His Royal Highness the Prince?" Wang Yan's lazy voice sounded, "That's it, I'll also pay five hundred gold, how about betting that this sister-in-law can win?" He waved his hand, and the servant gave him another five hundred gold and set it aside.

Lu Jin, who had never spoken, got up and owed to the prince: "Your Highness, Lu Jin is willing to pay this 500 gold on behalf of Gu's sister-in-law." ”

It's just that the servants sent more than five hundred gold, and I am afraid that there are thousands of gold, but they are sent by various families, the Xie family and the Wang family's sister-in-law who are the leaders of the family have sent gold, and the rest of the families have to follow and send them to Gu Yuan to make bets.

The prince looked at the plate of gold ingots, slowly raised his eyes, looked at Xie Xuan, Wang Yan and the others with more and more cold eyes, and said: "Okay, since you are willing to make a bet for this sister-in-law, Lone will naturally not stop it, I will make a bet with you today!" ”
