Chapter 22 Brothers, Friends, and Brothers

With a thud, the short arrow flew out, and before the man's face could unfold with pride, Red Silk easily caught the short arrow with two fingers.

Where would that person have thought that this would be the result, it seems that a soft and weak woman is actually a hidden martial arts master. It seems that if you want to shoot her, you still need to find a way to lure her away, after all, she is following Miss Gu's side, if she misses and hurts Miss Gu for a while, then he will be in big trouble.

Thinking of this, the man shot a dart at Hong Xuan again, and then fled the scene in a hurry, Hong Xuan caught the dart, hooked her lips slightly, and said in her heart, what a fool, she used such a despicable plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, her responsibility is to protect Gu Yunxin closely, and naturally she will not be led away by such a clumsy means.

Today, the county lord of Lauder also won like a divine help, and all the women who played with her were defeated. At this time, the examiner shouted loudly: "Please appear on the twenty-sixth." ”

"Yunxin, it's my turn." Zhan Xinyue said with a light smile.

"Okay, I wish my sister a victorious start."

The person who competed with Zhan Xinyue was Shen Han, the second lady of Ningyuan Marquis Mansion, this Shen Han and Shen Xiang are the same mother, and their temperament is also very gentle, Shen Han's guzheng is also very famous in the capital. Zhan Xinyue's best thing is Yueqin, these two people are opposed, and it can be regarded as a chess opponent who will meet a good talent.

The competition for this instrument is not about two people playing the repertoire they are good at, but about the examiner drawing lots, what kind of repertoire they get, and then what repertoire the two people play together, just to see which of the two people is better.

"Miss, why is this Miss and the second Miss of the Shen family competing in the same track?" Xiangzhi touched her chin and asked.

"If it's not the same track, how can you tell the difference?"

"The same repertoire, and playing together, where can you tell the difference." Xiangzhi wondered.

"It's the same repertoire, but the instruments used by the two people are different, and the fingering and playing methods are different for each person, and if two people play together, if one of them has a bad memory, then they will be taken away by the other skilled one, and they will not even be able to keep up with each other's tunes." Gu Yunxin said with a light smile.

"I see, the slave hopes that Miss Cousin will win." Laneige said with a smile.

"Well, my cousin's Yueqin is a must, but this second lady of the Shen family's guzheng should not be underestimated."

The music remembered that Zhan Xinyue and Shen Han each played their own tracks, and the guzheng played a beautiful song under Shen Han's hands, but Zhan Xinyue's side was a very gentle track, which was not as impassioned as the playing of the guzheng tracks.

After the song was played, the two of them were actually the winners and losers, the examiner was embarrassed now, the identities of the two women in front of him were simple, and it was impossible to say that anyone lost.

When the examiner was embarrassed, King Huai shook the folding fan and said lightly: "Lord Chen, you are really pedantic, since the two young ladies do not distinguish between victory and defeat, it is natural that they all have to belong to the ranks of the winners to participate in the next competition, this king really doesn't know what you are embarrassed about." ”

"What His Royal Highness King Huai said is that the lower officials will ......" Lord Chen bowed his hand, but before Lord Chen finished speaking, King Xiang opened his mouth coldly.

"What's the two, it's promoted, this king is listening to the Dingguo Mansion's eldest lady's skills, which are even better."

"King Xiang said this, I don't know if he really heard the superiority, or did King Xiang deliberately do it in order to curry favor with Dingguofu?" King Huai said with a provocative look.

"King Huai, where do you know any music theory, I really don't understand, why did the fifth child let you come here for him." King Xiang said unhappily.

Originally, this time the emperor sent him to assist the examiner in selecting outstanding talented women together with King Rui Zhao Yi, but he didn't expect that King Rui said that he was physically incapacitated, so he handed over the matter to King Huai.

This King Huai has been at odds with himself since he was a child, and he knows that he is in trouble all day long, if it weren't for the protection of Emperor Mu's concubine, maybe the emperor would have driven him out of the palace a long time ago, and he would have died on his own.

As soon as King Xiang finished speaking, he heard the sound of a wheel, and everyone looked for the prestige, and saw a man in a purple robe sitting in a wheelchair, pushed in.

Although the man is not good at walking, he is dressed in a purple robe, coupled with a gold silk spider belt of the same color around his waist, and his black hair is tied up and fixed with a gilt crown, and the whole person is plump and handsome, revealing innate nobility, which makes people feel unattainable and low to dust.

"Fifth brother, you're here." King Huai smiled and ran forward.

This is the fifth son of the current saint, His Royal Highness King Rui Zhao Yi. Many years ago, King Rui Zhao Yi was like a god-like existence in the hearts of the people, and he also made great contributions to the world of the Great Zhou, but God was jealous of the talent, and King Rui's legs were broken by horses during a hunt.

Since then, such a noble man has unloaded his military power and has become an idle prince who reads books and admires flowers all day long. There are also many people in the DPRK who lamented this, and a generation of war gods left his battlefield.

Although King Rui no longer leads troops to fight, his prestige in the court has not diminished in the slightest, and the emperor's favor for King Rui naturally makes no one dare to do anything to this King Rui.

"Old Five, it's good that you're here, you look at what this King Huai looks like, how can you choose both? It's clear that Miss Zhanjia is even better. King Xiang shouted.

Hearing this, King Rui gently supported his forehead, this King Xiang is really stupid, and it is not so flattering to please the Dingguo Mansion, not to mention, Miss Zhanjia has already had a marriage contract with the prince of Xiangyang Wangfu, does he still want to use Miss Zhan's relationship to climb to Xiangyang Palace?

"Second Emperor Brother, be well." Rui Wang sat in a wheelchair and said with a smile.

"Fifth brother, these ninth brothers only listen to you if they want to come, you come to judge, am I right?"

"My father often taught us to be brothers, friends and brothers, since the ninth brother thinks that Miss Zhanjia and Miss Shen are both talents, then naturally let both of them be shortlisted, what is there to dispute about." Rui Wang said lightly.

"You ......" King Xiang was dumbfounded for a while, he originally wanted to find King Rui to help him speak, but how did he know that the person who opened his mouth to help was the demon star of King Huai.

"Look, it's still what I said, Second Emperor Brother, you, not only have problems with your ears, but you also don't have a good brain, you better ask Xu Yuan to show you a good time." King Huai laughed.

As soon as these words came out, Gu Yunxin covered his lips and laughed, it seems that this King Xiang is still as stupid as in his previous life. In his previous life, if it weren't for his mother's family helping him plan, Xiao Ziming took away the military power of the Dingguo Mansion, how could he sit on the throne safely.

"Okay, you two brothers and sisters, I won't be a brother." After finishing speaking, King Xiang left Yuzhu Garden in a huff.

The county lord of Lauder watched King Xiang leave, and he also restrained some of his arrogance, if this King Xiang was still present, she didn't have to be like this, but she couldn't find this King Huai and King Rui.

King Huai has always been a fool, and he is even more hostile to the people of the Xiao family, as for King Rui, he was originally a famous god of war prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but once he became a cripple, and his temper became a little weird, she didn't want to cause trouble.

"Master Chen, go on, don't you want to end tonight?" King Huai is so tidy.

"Okay, since the two princes think that Miss Zhan and Miss Shen can be promoted, then the next official will listen to the two princes." Master Chen said with a smile.

What he said was very flattering, if this matter was known by the emperor, then it was also ordered by the two princes to do this, think about it, how dare he, a small five-grade courtier, dare to confront the prince? What's more, this Rui King is still the emperor's favorite prince.

Zhan Xinyue and Shen Han were both successfully promoted, and then the two looked at each other and smiled, and the next thing was the competition between Gu Yunxin and the daughter of another courtier.

When Gu Yunxin walked up to the stage and saw King Rui, he was slightly stunned, wasn't this the man who played the flute in the backyard of Foguang Temple that day?

When I saw this man that day, he was dressed in white and was as beautiful as a fairy. Unexpectedly, the man in white that day turned out to be Zhao Yi, the fifth prince of the fifth prince.

King Rui's gaze met Gu Yunxin's, and then he hooked his lips and smiled, this smile was really charming to all beings, and just look at Miss Fang who was preparing to compete with Gu Yunxin.

That Fang Xiaoya thought that this Rui Wang was smiling at herself, although this Rui Wang is now disabled, but after all, he is still a prince, if he can marry him and be a Rui princess, that day is also very good.

Fang Xiaoya's whole mind was tied to King Rui's body, where was there still a mind to compete, and after the examiner announced the content of the exam, the competition had already been defeated before a single stick of incense.

"This Fang Xiaoya is really useless, she lost so quickly." Unconvinced voices rang out in the crowd.

"That Fang Xiaoya's skills are not good, it's normal to lose so quickly, I don't know if this Miss Gu family will face the Lauder County Lord."

"Hehe, what my sister said is yes, I really want to see how the arrogant and domineering Lord Lauder will treat her future sister-in-law." The woman in pink covered her lips and smiled.

Xiao Ziming in the crowd heard the discussion, and sneered in his heart, although Xiao Sirui was a little arrogant, but he would not really have any conflict with Gu Yunxin, after all, this was in Yuzhu Garden, the competition of the women's talent competition in Da Zhou, and making Gu Yunxin lose face was also losing face for the Xiao family, thinking that Xiao Sirui would not be so ignorant of scoring inches.

The competition was in full swing, and soon it was the final competition, and Xiao Sirui, who was supposed to compete with Gu Yunxin, was replaced by Gu Yunzhi and Xiao Sirui because of an emergency.

Xiao Sirui has always been arrogant, naturally she doesn't pay attention to the daughters of other courtiers, she is the one who wants to become the queen, and she wants to suppress them from above.

Xiao Sirui's embroidery skills were taught by the embroidery lady in the palace, and Gu Yunzhi was taught by her own mother, so it was normal to lose, but Gu Yunzhi didn't know how to advance and retreat.

"Hmph, your competition is not fair at all, it should be Gu Yunxin who competes with the Lauder County Lord, but it was temporarily replaced by me, my eldest sister's embroidery skills are very famous in Da Zhou, Lauder County Lord, I don't know if you dare to compete with my eldest sister?" Gu Yunzhi sneered.

"Slut, you dare to laugh at the county lord, come here, give me a palm!" Xiao Sirui said angrily.
