Chapter 243: Embarrassing a weak woman in public

Besides, others may not know the truth, but Wu Jingyue knows very well that Jiang Yuanliu, this woman, is probably a person who practices martial arts, even if her skills are not as good as herself, but she is stronger than ordinary people.

If such a person is slightly infected with the wind cold, he will show the appearance of a weak willow supporting the wind, and Wu Jingyue will definitely not believe it when he says it, so he has to see Jiang Yuanliu's true face today before he is willing to stop.

Wu Jingyue's words made the corners of Jiang Yuanliu's lips under the light veil can't help but hook up, and then he showed a very faint sneer, and said delicately: "Although the words of the tenth prince are good, but the women of Qingqi have always cared about their appearance, if they are sick and let outsiders look at them, it is not only disrespectful to the guests, but also damage to their reputation." The Ten Princes are the noble princes of the Nanyue royal family, and naturally they understand how important a woman's reputation is, and he will definitely not do such a deliberate thing to destroy the reputation of others. ”

Although Jiang Yuanliu's voice was weak, the meaning of his words was very clear, not only refusing Wu Jingyue's request, but also putting a big hat on Wu Jingyue's head.

For a while, the princes and nobles who had planned to watch the excitement just now looked at Wu Jingyue with disgusted eyes.

After all, if Jiang Yuanliu is allowed to show his sick face at this time, not only will Jiang Yuanliu's reputation be ruined, but I am afraid that all the women in Qingqi will be looked down upon by people from other countries.

Although they are a little competitive with each other on weekdays, when it comes to their own interests, they show a different unity from usual.

"The Ten Princes, is this a woman who wants to despise our Qingqi? Even if we are powerless, we still know what it means to be 'a soldier can be killed but not humiliated'. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here with sincerity today, but the eldest prince and the tenth prince are making such a difficult situation for a seriously ill weak woman in my Qingqi land today, if this is spread by others, aren't you afraid that other friendly countries will laugh and be generous? ”

Wen Rongxian's hand under the table gently held Jiang Yuanliu's hand, but after he found that his hand touched Jiang Yuanliu, there was an astonishing heat in his hand.

immediately looked at Wu Jinghan and Wu Jingyue angrily, with anger and resoluteness in her tone, which made those who used to think she docile look at her differently.

"Why should Miss Wen be angry? We have come from afar, doesn't that show our sincerity? When Miss Wen said this, did she want to sow discord between the two countries? Wu Jingqi opened her mouth with a calm face, but there was an extremely dangerous taste in her tone.

The atmosphere of the entire banquet was immediately filled with a tense atmosphere because of his words, and even the frost and dew on the autumn night seemed to have solidified, which made people feel cold.

"The prince is really eloquent, it's just not enough to bully a few women like this, even if he wins, I'm afraid it will be dishonorable."

At this time, Zhao Jinhuai opened his mouth lightly, and everyone followed the sound, and saw that he had not spoken a few words all night, as expressionless as if he had just entered the venue, but the eyes that flashed slightly in the moonlight gave people a kind of indifference that rejected people thousands of miles away.

But even if Zhao Jinhuai was indifferent and ruthless at the moment, with what he said just now, he also left a good impression in the hearts of the daughters of all families.

"Oh? The second prince actually has such a mind, and this pity and pity for the jade made the palace impressed. It's just that the second prince has such a temperament, if he was on the battlefield, I'm afraid he would have come back a long time ago, where is the turn of the second prince to act as a flower messenger here? Wu Jingqi said in a slightly mocking tone.

There was a murderous light hidden in the eagle-like eyes, looking at the daughters opposite, everyone lowered their heads instantly, only a few were a little bold, but their faces changed slightly.

"Doesn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know that 'there is a precedence in hearing the Tao and a specialization in the arts'? The crown prince may be extremely proficient in marching and fighting, but the second prince also has his own proficient aspects. If you talk about the former, the second prince may not be as good as the crown prince, but when it comes to the latter, I am afraid that the second prince will be better.

Besides, today's Qingqi is the peace of the country and the people, and the emperor is sympathetic to the people, where would he start a war so easily and cause misery, wouldn't that shake the foundation of the country? Jiang Yuanliu knew that the second prince was hiding his edge on weekdays and rarely competed with others, so he might not be able to say anything about this articulate prince of Nanyue, so he replied with a strong breath.

But only Wen Rongxian knew that every word Jiang Yuanliu said used all his strength, and the hand he held in his hand was even tightened into a fist at this moment, which made Wen Rongxian on the side feel distressed.

"Miss Jiang is still so sharp and sharp now that this palace can't help but start to doubt the truth of this disease." Wu Jingqi once again set his eyes on Jiang Yuanliu.

Seeing that she was sitting upright in the banquet at this time, her face under the veil was tightly covered, but the eyes with flashes in the darkness could be felt even if they were covered by the veil.

The corners of Wu Jingqi's mouth couldn't help but sneer with disdain, and she was just about to speak, but she saw Sun Guifei smiling and saying to Zhao Duqi: "Your Majesty, let's still watch the song and dance, now that the song and dance stops, everyone is left with small talk." ”

After speaking, Sun Guifei maintained the dignified appearance just now, sat elegantly in her position, and looked at everyone with a smile.

Zhao Duqi looked at her flawless side and was slightly distracted, and then nodded to the chief eunuch, so he heard the sound of silk and bamboo that had stopped slowly sounding again.

For a while, the originally tense atmosphere in the Imperial Garden was relieved, and the ministers also raised their glasses to each other, talking about interesting stories and jokes.

At this time, Wu Jiyue, who was sitting in the position of the Nanyue Mission, suddenly stood up, slowly walked to the center of the banquet, and blessed Zhao Duqi slightly, and said softly: "Your Majesty, Yue'er is still fond of the second prince of Qingqi, and today's dance is to express her heart and ask the emperor to give her marriage." ”

As soon as these words came out, a thousand waves were immediately set off, and everyone present exploded, Zhao Jinhuai, who was sitting in the seat, looked slightly stunned, this is the first time she has met with this Nanyue princess today, how can she still fall in love with herself?

Guo Yue, who was in the seat, suddenly opened her eyes, she only felt that the blood in her body began to flow backwards at this moment, as if she was about to suffocate.

The queen on the throne was shocked after hearing this, if this marriage is completed, then Zhao Jinhuai will get the support of the Nanyue royal family, even if he asks Guo Yue to be his daughter-in-law, how can the power of a prince be compared with the power of the royal family.

Before Zhao Duqi could speak, Zhao Yuhuai on the side couldn't hold his breath, and immediately said loudly: "The princess is really joking, this prince remembers that the princess and the second brother met for the first time today, how did it attract the princess's love for a long time, and the second brother of the prince has never been close to women, and he is also very cold to people, if he marries the princess, I am afraid that the princess will be alone in the empty room in the future, and it will not ruin the princess's life." ”

"Your Majesty, the concubines also feel that this matter is a little hasty, and today's occasion is not suitable to talk about such matters, so it is better to put it aside for the time being and discuss it later." The queen immediately chimed in.

Zhao Duqi's face was extremely ugly at this time, today the Nanyue mission has attacked him many times, and now he suddenly said that he wanted to make peace, which is simply forcing himself.

"Presumably the princess is a little drunk, and someone should not hurry up and serve the princess a bowl of sobering soup." Zhao Duqi did not directly answer Wu Jiyue's words, but instructed the chief eunuch beside him to bring a bowl of sobering soup, which skillfully resolved the embarrassing situation.

The sound of silk and bamboo gradually sounded, and everything returned to the situation where everyone was talking and laughing just now.

Jiang Yuanliu slowly let go of his clenched fists, smiled at Wen Rongxian and said, "Cousin, I'm fine." ”

But Wen Rongxian didn't believe her words, looked at the back of Jiang Yuanliu's reddened hand, and said quite distressedly: "It's okay, your body can be so hot?" The three people of Nanyue are really small-bellied chicken intestines, last time it was clear that they were the first to lead people into Kyoto to run rampant, but now they are sitting here so confidently, as if nothing happened, it is really unreasonable. ”

Jiang Yuanliu listened to Wen Rongxian, who had always been dignified and generous, complained, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, and he couldn't help laughing, and then said calmly: "Cousin, why should I be angry with such a person today." They are just bullying us weak women who are powerless now, but we are not fish and meat to be slaughtered, otherwise with so many ministers here, how could they let Nanyue's people be so presumptuous on Qingqi's chassis? ”

Listening to Jiang Yuanliu's persuasion, Wen Rongxian's emotions calmed down slightly, and then he took the bird's nest in front of him and put it in front of Jiang Yuanliu, and said with concern: "Eat some bird's nest, your body must not drink alcohol today, and taking care of your body is the most important thing." ”

Jiang Yuanliu took the small cup of bird's nest that Wen Rongxian handed to him, and nodded slightly.

"When you didn't come just now, you missed a good show." Wen Rongxian saw Wu Jiyue walking this way, so he explained to Jiang Yuanliu in a very soft voice: "This is the first beauty in Nanyue, Princess Jiyue, her dance just now made the men present fall under her pomegranate skirt one after another. made Guo Yue, who appeared later, almost make a fool of himself in front of everyone. The song "Baitou Yin" played was also unsatisfactory, and in the end, it was ridiculed by the eldest prince of Nanyue. ”

Hearing this, Jiang Yuanliu's eyebrows under the veil raised slightly, and his eyes looked at Wu Jiyue again, and it could be seen from his walking demeanor that she was a royal princess who had been taught very well since she was a child.

Looking at Wu Jiyue's posture and appearance, it can indeed be called a country and a city.
