Chapter 244: Request for Marriage

Guo Yue, who was sitting not far away, seemed to have a gloomy color between her eyebrows, presumably any conceited and beautiful woman would have such a reaction when she saw another woman who was more beautiful than herself.

"Wu Jiyue has seen the county lord Guo Yue. The name of the county lord has spread throughout Nanyue, and everyone praises the woman who is both talented and beautiful, and Yue'er is here to salute the county lord for a drink. I saw Wu Jiyue walking in front of Guo Yue, opening her voice in a warm voice, and even took the initiative to raise the wine glass in her hand, paying tribute to Guo Yue very friendly.

This action was natural and easy-going, not only did not reduce the identity of Princess Wu Jiyue, but made everyone feel that her upbringing was extremely good, and she showed a dignified temperament.

Guo Yue has resentment in her heart, but she also knows how to do superficial kung fu well.

I saw that she immediately removed the disgust for Wu Jiyue in her eyes, and there was a kind smile in her eyes, and when Wu Jiyue walked to her table, she had already stood up.

Hearing Wu Jiyue say such flattering words, Guo Yue hooked her lips and smiled, revealing a touching smile, and then said coldly: "The princess is really praised. It's just that people are just like the clouds, until today, Guo Yue knows what it means to have people outside the people and mountains outside the mountains, the princess's dance steps are really ashamed of Guo Yue, how can she be big in front of the princess now? This glass of wine is also my tribute to the princess. ”

After speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled, and at the same time raised their glasses and drank the osmanthus brew in the cup.

Jiang Yuanliu lowered his head slightly and tasted the bird's nest in front of him, listening to the conversation between the two clearly, and couldn't help but feel funny in his heart.

I'm afraid that Guo Yue already hated Wu Jiyue in her heart at this time, but she had to pretend to be a beautiful girl, which was really embarrassing for her.

Wu Jiyue handed the empty wine glass to the maid beside her, only to see that the maid poured another glass for her, and this time Wu Jiyue turned her head and came towards Jiang Yuanliu's seat.

When Wen Rongxian saw it, he immediately tugged at the cloak on Jiang Yuanliu's body to remind her.

Jiang Yuanliu had already noticed Wu Jiyue's gaze at him at this time, so he put down the silver spoon in his hand and asked the palace maid to pour a glass of warm water for him.

Just in time for Wu Jiyue to stand still, the time was just right, and Wen Rongxian's unfazed appearance made Wen Rongxian admire.

"Jiang Yuanliu has seen Princess Yue'er here, Yuanliu is late today, so he toasted the princess with water instead of wine, and asked the princess to forgive her sins." Before Wu Jiyue could speak, Jiang Yuanliu spoke preemptively.

There was a bit of weakness in his tone, which made Wu Jiyue, who wanted to come to toast, slightly stunned, and now he could only let Jiang Yuanliu drink the glass of white water, and then drank the sweet wine in the cup.

After handing the wine glass to the maid, Wu Jiyue had no intention of leaving.

Looking at Jiang Yuanliu's delicate appearance in front of him, he couldn't help but care: "Miss Jiang's body can still eat?" Although this palace and Miss Jiang met for the first time, when they were in Nanyue, they often heard the tenth brother mention Miss Jiang, so they didn't feel angry about Miss Jiang. ”

Jiang Yuanliu saw that Wu Jiyue seemed to be about to have a long talk, so he held the edge of the table with one hand and supported his body, cheered up and said to Wu Jiyue in front of him: "Yuanliu is just a nameless junior, not only is he not as famous as the county lord Guo Yue, but he also does not have a princess who is as famous as the princess, Yuanliu is just an ordinary woman raised in the boudoir, how can she have the opportunity to meet a foreign man." The princess said this, it must be that the ten princes recognized the wrong person before? ”

Hearing this, Wu Jiyue only smiled faintly, her pupils suddenly constricted, and then she lowered her voice and said: "Is it to deny the wrong person, Miss Jiang took off the veil and let the tenth brother take a look, won't the truth be revealed?" If Miss Jiang didn't have the strength now, the palace could let the maids around her serve Miss Jiang. ”

As she spoke, the maid beside Wu Jiyue couldn't help but take a step forward, and reached out to take off Jiang Yuanliu's gauze hat......

"You dare." At this time, Wen Rongxian didn't want to speak up until she said, only to see her stand up suddenly and hurriedly protect Jiang Yuanliu.

But then he felt a gust of wind blowing in his face, and then he saw a dark green figure quickly appear beside Wu Jiyue like a ghost.

A bony jade hand instantly grabbed the arm of the maid who was about to unveil the veil, and the maid seemed to have been kicked by someone, and knelt down on Jiang Yuanliu's knees defenselessly.

"This is Qing Qi, where it is your turn to make a small Nanyue maid commit a crime here, offending the nobles of Qing Qi?" A voice with obvious anger rang out, and the maid stood up with the sharp pain in the crook of her leg, and then retreated behind Wu Jiyue with an expressionless face.

Wu Jiyue looked at Sun Xiaoyu who suddenly appeared, and came to rescue Jiang Yuanliu without caring about anything, and said with a smile: "The little marquis misunderstood, this palace was just joking with Miss Jiang just now, although my maid is humble, but Nanyue is not small." ”

Obviously, Sun Xiaoyu's words just now angered Wu Jiyue, and the sentence 'little Nanyue maid' can be described as killing two birds with one stone, not only naming the low status of the maid, but also using this to ridicule Nanyue's area is not as wide as Qingqi, how can Wu Jiyue not be angry?

Such a thing suddenly happened here, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone present, so I saw that all eyes were focused on Jiang Yuanliu, Sun Xiaoyu and Wu Jiyue.

Seeing Sun Xiaoyu staring at his sister with a cold face at this time, Wu Jingyue immediately said angrily: "Master Gu Xiaohou, whether men and women are kissed or not, don't you know how to avoid suspicion?" ”

When he said this, his face was not red and his heart was not beating, Jiang Yuanliu couldn't help frowning slightly.

"Before understanding the situation, why should the Ten Princes be so angry? Besides, Young Master Sun has always been self-clean, how could he do something embarrassing in public. Gu Jinshu walked slowly towards this side, and said with a cold face.

Since the moment Jiang Yuanliu stepped into the Imperial Garden, Gu Jinshu's gaze had never left her figure, even if she was veiled, he could still feel Jiang Yuanliu's smart eyes, exuding a wise light in the corner that was not easy for others to detect.

It's just that I didn't expect this Wu Jiyue to be so bold, and she wanted to unveil Jiang Yuanliu in front of everyone.

Looking at the empty right hand, Gu Jinshu's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and his eyes suddenly looked at Wu Jiyue's back, causing a chill to immediately rise in Wu Jiyue's heart.

"The Ten Princes are so annoyed and angry, could it be that all what Princess Jiyue did just now was instructed by the Ten Princes? I really didn't expect the suspicion of the Ten Princes to be so serious, how can you make Qing Qi believe in the sincerity of you and Nanyue? If we sabotage everyone's peace talks today, I wonder if the Ten Princes can afford this responsibility? Jiang Yuanliu was still calm, his voice was not as weak as just now, and there was a certain strength and coldness in his tone, looking straight at Wu Jingyue.

"You... Jiang Yuanliu... You ......" Wu Jingyue couldn't have imagined that Jiang Yuanliu would turn this question around himself in a few words, and he was angry for a while, his face turned red, but he had nothing to say.

"Why does the princess have to embarrass a seriously ill person today, is it really important to misunderstand the truth? If it is for this trivial matter, if Miss Jiang's condition is aggravated, I am afraid it will also damage your reputation princess. Gu Jinshu said unhurriedly, his eyes swept Wu Jiyue in front of him.

And those ministers in the Nanyue envoy group were speechless when they saw that their prince was being made speechless by an unknown little woman, and they all glared at Jiang Yuanliu with threatening eyes.

One of the ministers who couldn't hold his breath spoke: "Jiang Yuanliu, you are only called Miss because you are attached to your father's position. But this young lady is simply insignificant compared to the princess and prince. ”

"Hmph. Is it insignificant? At this time, Gu Jinshu lightly repeated the four words that the minister said, and a pair of sharp eyes immediately swept towards the group of ministers in Nanyue.

Gu Hongxiao, who was sitting not far away, saw the situation here, and began to think about his plan in his heart, if he could marry this Nanyue princess into the door, then he would be able to get the help of the entire royal family, and then he would be in power.

"Jinshu, why do you need the princess's words to be so sharp, the husband thinks it's just a joke between them, your words really hurt the princess's face, and why do you want to offend the princess for Miss Jiang." Gu Hongxiao looked at Wu Jiyue with a flattering expression.

"Father really pities the jade, I don't know how the aunt at home is doing, my father still cares more about the aunt." Gu Jinshu didn't give him face at all, and his tone was full of irony.

Gu Hongxiao was blocked and immediately speechless, and his face was ugly as if he had eaten a fly.

What did he think in his heart, Gu Jinshu was clear, it was nothing more than wanting him to marry this Nanyue princess, so as to consolidate his position in the court, Gu Jinshu immediately raised his eyes to look at Jiang Yuanliu, as if he had made some kind of determination, stood up, and walked towards the center of the field.

Jiang Yuanliu was suddenly glanced at by Gu Jinshu, and that look made her feel troubled for a while, and before she could react, she saw that Gu Jinshu had knelt down on one knee in front of Zhao Duqi, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Weichen asks for marriage." ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the imperial garden, no one thought that Gu Jinshu, who had always been unrestrained, would actually ask for a marriage on such an important occasion, and everyone couldn't help but speculate for a while, they didn't understand what kind of stimulation Gu Jinshu was under, and he actually stood up and took the initiative to mention the marriage.
