Chapter 173: The Birthday Banquet Storm 8
Gong Mingye's eyes moved to Yun Jinghua, staring at her with eyes as deep as an abyss, as if they wanted to suck her in, and then see her through from the inside out.
Yun Jinghua looked back at him calmly, without fear or avoidance, calmly and calmly.
After staring at each other for a long time, the corners of her lips slightly raised, she smiled elegantly and calmly, lowered her head, continued to eat and drink, and ignored him.
Gong Mingye's heart was suffocated, and he felt a little breathless. With a slightly gloomy face, he looked at the person next to her, as if squeezing out a string of cold words from between his teeth. "In that case, the Prime Minister will take care of it himself, and the Prime Minister will take whatever he can."
Zhuge Wuwei's cold face finally showed a smile, but that smile was not because of Gong Yingye's compromise and retreat, but because of what the woman beside him said just now.
She bought it? He really went out of the honeysuckle, but when he got to the end, she said that she bought it herself, can he understand that she is admitting to some extent that she has a great relationship with him, what is theirs is hers, and then hers is his?
Although he knew in his heart that Yun Jinghua was deliberately going against Gong Mingye, so he came forward to lie, but Zhuge Wuwei was still in a happy mood because of her words, as if he had eaten honey.
The corners of his mouth pulled up a bright smile, and he bowed his head slightly, "Thank you His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Mingjian, I thought about it, the pen, ink, paper and inkstone are indeed cold, if you don't dislike it when you participate in the competition, then you will present your own ink treasure." ”
Those who didn't know didn't react, but those officials who had the privilege of seeing his Mobao all looked surprised.
If the Prime Minister takes out the ink treasure, it is not comparable to ordinary gold, silver and jade, this can be regarded as a big deal.
Mo Ziqian looked at Zhuge Wuwei, then at Yun Jinghua, and then lowered his eyes with a thoughtful look, his eyes flickering and darkening, not knowing what Lu Dao was thinking.
Gong Mingye felt that the smile on Zhuge Wuwei's face was dazzling, squinted his eyes slightly, turned his head indignantly, and asked the other two people in the banquet: "Do the six princes and the crown prince have other proposals?" ”
Helian Zheng replied simply and boldly, "This prince thinks that the proposal of the prince of the palace is very good, so let's leave it at that." ”
Huangfu Shenghua smiled gently, "The proposal of the prince of the palace is very good, and the prince has no objections. ”
Gong Mingye's eyes swept away, and he instructed Gonggong Li: "Gonggong Li, go and prepare pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and let people write down the objects that the six princes, the crown prince, and the prime minister plan to contribute, and each thing must be remembered in detail." ”
"Yes." The prince personally instructed, where did Gonggong Li dare to slack off, and hurriedly ran to the apse with the box in his arms.
"When I entered the palace today, the prince didn't bring anyone, so he brought my Xiyue grassland flower Ulan Tuya, so Miss Tuya represented me in Xiyue to participate in the next competition. Of course, this prince is because there is only one person to choose, so he can only let Miss Tuya compete alone, there are many of you, you can send a few more people to compete with her, this prince has no opinion. ”
There are officials who raise their eyebrows, which means that they bully more and he has no opinion?
Zhuge Wuwei stared at the dishes on the table with a faint smile in his eyes, noncommittal.
Huangfu Shenghua still had a warm smile on his face, and said politely: "This prince brought a female dependant of the imperial sister into the palace, and it seems that she can only participate in the competition on behalf of Daliang." This prince's younger sister has never been obedient to discipline, she has never learned piano, chess, calligraphy and painting well, she doesn't know anything, and I hope everyone won't laugh at her later. ”
Huangfu Jiayi twitched in her heart, very dissatisfied with her brother's ruthless belittlement, but also understood that he was preparing for her to go down the stairs, because if Bai Mulan wanted to participate in this competition, then the Liang she represented would only lose, so she obediently did not refute.
The Tiansheng official swept the beautiful woman sitting at the table behind Helian Zheng, and then swept the Huangfu Jiayi next to Huangfu Shenghua, and said in his heart that both countries sent one person to compete, so they Tiansheng, did they only send one? Or send a few more righteous and bright people to bully the few?
Someone whispered and discussed, saying who Tiansheng should send to appear, and the eighth princess, who was completely ignored in the center of the main hall, finally waited for the acquiescence of Xiaotian to come to the palace to leave, and then returned to her seat like a desert. She was greeted by Concubine Rou's disappointed eyes.
The queen mother intends to marry Princess Lily of the Valley and the crown prince, and Concubine Rou naturally hopes that her daughter can defeat Princess Lily of the Valley, but she doesn't want her to miss the opportunity to show her skills.
"Prince, who do you think should be sent to fight on behalf of my Tiansheng?" On the stage, Gong Xiaotian suddenly asked Gong Mingye.
"Erchen thinks that he can send ......" Before Gong Yingye finished speaking, Helian Zheng suddenly interrupted him.
"Your Majesty, Helian heard all kinds of rumors about Miss Mu Er when he was in Xiyue, people said that Miss Mu Er was a talented woman who was famous in Emperor Tiansheng, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and Miss Mu Er was the daughter of Shangshu, such rumors must be true. So Helian had a proposal, it was better to let Miss Mu Er participate in the competition on behalf of Tiansheng, thinking that with Miss Mu Er's talent, she would have a great chance to defeat other people who participated in the competition. ”
As soon as Helian Zheng's voice fell, the Tiansheng officials nodded again and again, and whispered in agreement with Helian Zheng's proposal.
Gong Xiaotian looked at Mu Jinxiu, then at the people representing Xiyue and Daliang, and asked, "What does the prince think?" ”
Gong Mingye looked at Yun Jinghua's position, and his eyebrows frowned slightly.
He has seen her piano, chess and dance skills, which can be said to be much more brilliant than Mu Jinxiu, if she represents Tiansheng, it will be much more likely to win Huangfu Jiayi and the flower of the grassland in the end.
After all, Helian Zheng came prepared at a glance, who knows if Helian Zheng will propose to try any strange projects in the future, if Mu Jinxiu comes forward, there is no possibility of winning.
Mu Jinxiu was very disgusted by Helian Zheng mentioning herself, but as soon as she heard him let her participate in the competition and said those flattering words, the proud peacock that lived in her heart began to dance again, and she was full of confidence all of a sudden, and sat up straight with confidence, waiting for her prince brother to nod and appoint her.
Seeing Yun Jinghua in the night, he looked like Yun was lightly out of the way, and swept in the direction of Mu Jinxiu. Mu Jinxiu was looking at him with bright eyes, and when she saw him looking at herself, the confident light on her face shone brighter again.
His eyes flashed, and for a moment all kinds of calculations flashed in his heart.
Helian Zheng came to Mu Jinxiu at a glance, if he knew that Mu Jinxiu didn't actually have a few catties and a few taels, Helian Zheng might dispel the idea of marriage, and from then on, Mu Bangqing, who didn't know where he was now, would not be so many people worried about it.
Thinking of this, he nodded, "Let's let Miss Mu participate in the competition." ”
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Helian Zheng said again: "Your Majesty, Helian proposed to let Bai Mulan also participate in this competition. ”
