Chapter 18: The Prince and the Prince
King Xiang's move attracted the attention of the people present, even if the two have a close relationship, they must know how to avoid suspicion, not to mention that Jin Ri is the annual embroidery competition of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it is not to see the two of them love each other.
"His Royal Highness King Xiang, can the competition officially start?" The official who was reprimanded by Xiao Sirui just now saluted respectfully towards King Xiang.
"What else is there to play? Don't you see that the Lauder County Lord is not feeling well? Let's compare tomorrow. After finishing speaking, he helped Xiao Sirui and walked towards the carriage outside.
"This ......" The official was also speechless, King Xiang has always been so reckless, but people crawled out of the queen's belly, and there was the support of the Marquis of Ningguo behind him, so he naturally did not dare to refute it.
Anyway, this embroidery competition is a three-day competition, and the assessment time will be accelerated at most. As long as this competition can be held smoothly, then the errand assigned by the emperor will be considered to be done properly.
King Huai saw that the person who could fight with him had already left, and he instantly put away his thoughts of playing, "Since the competition will only be held tomorrow, then King Ben will leave first, and I will come back tomorrow." ”
Hearing this, the officials who hosted the event were about to cry, and everyone's hearts secretly prayed that tomorrow they wouldn't let this demon king of the world make trouble again.
Originally, this year's embroidery competition, the emperor assigned the second prince to supervise it with the five princes, but the five princes insisted on pushing the errand to the nine princes on the grounds that they were unable to move.
When King Huai left, he saw Gu Yunxin's figure in the crowd, and saw her wearing a lilac dress reaching to the ground, embroidered with a dancing butterfly on her skirt, and a white brocade belt around her waist, which looked fresh and elegant. The eyebrows are like willow bends, the eyes are like lakes, the nose is small, high and straight, and the cherry lips are red without dotting. The skin is as white and tender as snow, and there is an elegant momentum in every gesture. The green silk on his head is pulled into a flying bun, and a purple jade butterfly hairpin is obliquely suspended in his hair, which complements this plain outfit.
"This sister is really beautiful, I don't know which family it is." Huai Dynasty looked at Gu Yunxin and saluted slightly.
In his previous life, although Gu Yunxin had nothing to do with His Royal Highness King Huai, he also knew that he was a person who liked to flirt with other girls, and he always made other girls fall in love with him, so he ran away.
"His Royal Highness King Huai, please respect yourself, this daughter of the Gu family and this son already have a marriage contract, His Royal Highness King Huai lingers in the flowers, and you must see it clearly, but don't bear the reputation of seducing other people's wives." Xiao Ziming stood in front of Gu Yunxin.
Seeing this, King Huai raised his eyebrows slightly, "Heh, wife?" This king doesn't remember that you got married, but when you saw that other girls were beautiful, you became lustful, saying that they were your wives, so you ruined the reputation of other girls, and then they had to marry you. ”
Hearing King Huai say this, Gu Yunxin really wanted to applaud, Xiao Ziming, who was choked with these few words, couldn't say a word, seeing that his face was blue and white for a while, if he said a few more words, I am afraid that he will return to heaven.
"His Royal Highness King Huai, please respect yourself, don't think that you are the prince and you can do whatever you want, this prince is also from the Marquis of Ningguo's mansion, you ......" Xiao Ziming pointed at King Huai and said angrily.
"You?" King Huai removed Xiao Ziming's finger pointing at him with the folding fan in his hand, and then sneered: "Xiao Ziming, what about the Marquis Mansion of Ningguo, in the final analysis, he is also a courtier, and you are the son of a courtier, this king is the son of the emperor, this prince is naturally much more noble than you, the son of the world." After speaking, King Huai swayed the folding fan in his hand and strode away from Yuzhu Garden.
Xiao Ziming originally wanted to be a hero in front of Gu Yunxin, but he didn't expect to be ridiculed by King Huai and lose face, he thought that Gu Yunxin would come forward to help him speak, but he didn't expect her to say a word. For this reason, I can't help but feel a little disappointed in my heart, after all, Gu Yunxin's identity is noble, not only the daughter of the Taifu, but also the grandfather's family holds the military power. For the sake of his career, he has to endure all this first, but after Gu Yunxin marries him, her heart will naturally be towards him. Thinking of this, Xiao Ziming's heart felt much better, and perhaps, this was the only thing he thought to comfort himself.
Originally, the queen wanted the emperor to marry the second prince to Gu Yunxin, but the emperor hated the princes the most for unscrupulous means to compete for the throne, and even more disgusted that harem women used their children's marriages to pull courtiers into the camp and form parties for personal gain.
Therefore, Queen Xiao chose to let Xiao Ziming marry Gu Yunxin, and then let Xiao Sirui marry King Xiang, so that the Xiao family, the Gu family, the Zhan family, and even the Shen family, the maiden family of Old Lady Gu, will also be pulled into the queen's camp.
It must be said that this Queen Xiao is really a good chess player, and she actually regarded everyone as her pawns for monopolizing power, but as everyone knows, gradually she became someone else's chess piece and ended up miserable, and this is only a story later......
