Chapter 222: Breaking Branches (14)

Everyone present was stunned, and even the eldest princess was a little surprised. After all, the title of the talented woman of the Xi family has never fallen on this eldest lady, and even some people's eyes have changed, and their eyes can't stop looking at these two young ladies, and they can't help muttering in their hearts, could it be that my sister robbed this talented sister of the fruits of her labor? !

For this kind of behavior of the predecessors planting trees and the descendants enjoying the shade, Xi Guan is extremely disliked. But I have to say that Xi Ruorui smiled very smartly: "The little girl is only a shallow learner, this poem was read by chance from an ancient book, I hope you don't laugh at me." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone knew about it, but this was a game in the end, and no one said that they had to participate in their own verses. Many people who have a good relationship with Xi Ruorui still came to praise at the right time: "I haven't heard of it, it's a real and beautiful sentence, Ruorui is really knowledgeable." ”

Shang Shunu was so angry that she was half dead, but she had no choice but to give up.

Just as Xi Gu'an expected the crisis, the next moment, as the music suddenly stopped, the cup happened to stay in front of his eyes. Suddenly, everyone's eyes turned to this place, including the eldest princess who was sitting peacefully on the stage.

It seemed that she found out who she had chosen, and smiled in surprise: "I have long heard that the second lady of the Xi family is a talented girl in the capital, and it seems that today is my blessing." ”

Xi Gu'an frowned, the original owner's talent is naturally not to be said, and it is the best opportunity to shine in this kind of Hundred Flowers Banquet. But the eldest princess lifted her too high and pulled a lot of hatred in plain water. From this point of view, could it be that this eldest princess is targeting their Xi family?

didn't think about these twists and turns, but the eldest princess had already spoken, Xi Guan still stood up and bowed to the eldest princess.

"Her Royal Highness the princess has praised it, the princess's intelligence is amazing, the poetry collection has long been praised by all the people, and the little girl's little ink is not eye-catching at all."

As soon as these words came out, everyone also echoed them, without him, no matter whose status it was, it was not as much as this eldest princess who was favored by the emperor.

However, at this moment, footsteps hurriedly ran from afar. Her movements were conspicuous in the quiet surroundings, but the girl did not realize that she had become the center of attention. She stumbled to a side, walked up to a handsomely dressed woman, and exclaimed, "Ning...... His Royal Highness King Ning is back! ”

The heroic woman originally looked at Xi Gu'an's direction with a serious face, and she had a bit of a good show, but after hearing this sentence, she suddenly stood up, her eyes full of surprise.

"What are you talking about, Lord Ning, he ......"

"Yes, yes," the little girl nodded again and again, her eyes were full of surprise, "The slave maid was helping the young lady pick flowers outside just now, and I heard the palace people around me say that King Ning came back last night and is now in the palace, asking the emperor to take up his post!" ”

This woman is Gao Ruogu, the daughter of the general who admires His Royal Highness King Ning in the original book, from the beginning of entering the scene, that sharp gaze pierced her, and the hostility in that gaze was not concealed at all, and it was easy to match the daughter of the general who was jealous in the original book.

At this moment, she didn't care about going toe-for-tat with Xi Gu'an anymore, but hurriedly stood up and wanted to rush out, but was stopped by the maid next to her.

Gao Ruogu's eyebrows glared at her sharply, and the maid reminded in a low voice: "Miss, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is still here." ”

Gao Ruogu was stunned, with some unnaturalness on his face. When she looked back, she was facing the eldest princess's somewhat ugly face, and her heart was even more chuckled. I don't know if it's an illusion, she always feels that the eldest princess's eyes are fixed on her, with inexplicable ill intentions.

However, the expression on the eldest princess's face quickly retracted, and her usual gentle expression was restored.

She turned her head sideways and asked the maid beside her, "When did His Royal Highness King Ning come back, why didn't I receive news here?" ”

The maid looked terrified: "Slave...... The slave and maid don't know, so wait for the slave and maid to inquire. ”

The eldest princess was silent for a while, her eyes skimmed over the ladies in the Hundred Flowers Banquet, especially on Xi Gu'an, who stayed a lot and clapped her hands suddenly.

"Why don't you let His Royal Highness King Ning come down and join us in this Hundred Flowers Banquet?"

Gao Ruogu immediately echoed: "Yes! ”

After saying this, she felt that she was too embarrassed to react, and hurriedly said: "No, I heard that His Royal Highness King Ning can write and martial arts, and his poems are also top-notch, so why don't you give us some advice." ”

Although most of the flowers banquet this time are women, there are many people who are also dragged by their families, and it is not without male dependents. Wenxin School

Li Yuxi smiled and nodded: "Yes, I heard that the future Princess Ning is also here, so it is better to let this Princess Ning see the demeanor of His Royal Highness King Ning." ”

After saying this, everyone's eyes were fixed on Xi Gu'an's body, and there was one of them that was as sharp as a knife, piercing his whole body uncomfortably, as if he was going to directly rip off a piece of flesh from the person's body.

Although Xi Gu'an tried his best to shrink his body very secretly, now his identity as Princess Ning is destined to become the target of public criticism.

At this time, a little girl hurriedly ran towards this place and whispered something in the ear of the eldest princess. The eldest princess's expression was first pleasantly surprised for a moment, and then when she heard something, her face became extremely difficult to look at. Her gaze skimmed over Xi Gu'an's direction, with a hint of inexplicable incomprehension.

waved the girl away, and the eldest princess came with a soft smile on her face: "There is no need to invite His Royal Highness King Ning over, it just so happens that His Royal Highness wants to see his own Princess Ning." ”

Xi Gu'an only felt as uncomfortable as if she was entangled in a poisonous snake, she lowered her head, looked at the snack in her hand, and pretended not to care at all.

And at this time, a noisy voice came over, and all the chattering people who were originally communicating instantly quieted down, as if even the atmosphere was stagnant.

The person at the head of the group has sword eyebrows and starry eyes, profound facial features and extremely dazzling appearance, he is an extremely handsome man, but the momentum of the person in front of him is too strong, and the first thing that people pay attention to is not her appearance, but the aggressive and absolutely overwhelming momentum on her body, which has been left behind after countless battlefields, and ordinary people naturally can't bear it.

Everyone hurriedly bowed their heads in a quail shape, not daring to look at this terrible man again.

Xi Gu'an was also quietly looking at the man in front of him while bowing his head, the crown of hair on his head and the clothes were only the only shortcomings, it seemed that God felt that the person in front of him was really too good, but his leg defects had become the biggest drawback of the perfect man in front of him. However, even if he was pushed out, he didn't have any appearance of losing to the people around him.

Sure enough, such a person will be the best villain BOSS in the original book who stumbles on the protagonist's group.

The eldest princess took the lead in standing up and bowed slightly: "I don't know that His Royal Highness King Ning is also back, are you okay these days outside?" ”

Xi Gu'an frowned, always feeling that this tone was ambiguous, and when he saw the admiration in the eyes of the eldest princess looking at this person, he had a bizarre thought in his heart - could it be that this person is also interested in His Royal Highness King Ning and set himself up as an imaginary rival in love?

Thinking of this, Xi Gu'an couldn't help but sink in his heart, if he was the daughter of the general in the original book, forget it, and this eldest princess Her Royal Highness is in the limelight, and she is favored in front of the emperor, if she wants to use some means behind her back to deal with herself, it is far more than Xi Ruorui and Gao Ruogu.

Ling Xiqian nodded towards the eldest princess and sat in a secluded corner pushing a small wheeled cart.

The expression on the eldest princess's face froze, and the handkerchief in her hand was almost stirred. At this time, Ling Xiqian's gaze had already skimmed over her, he lowered his eyes, turned his head and whispered something to the little waiter next to him.

The little attendant straightened up and said to everyone: "His Royal Highness King Ning came this time mainly to participate in this Hundred Flowers Banquet on the orders of the emperor, and to award prizes for the Hundred Flowers Banquet, which will not disturb you, please take care of yourself." ”

As he spoke, he took a step back and stood back beside Ling Xiqian, like a loyal guard. Although this person is ordinary in appearance and not tall, Xi Gu'an, who has dabbled in many worlds, can see the unusual momentum from this person at a glance, presumably the living environment in which this person lives is also not ordinary, and he is probably a brother who was born and died with Ling Xiqian.

At this time, Xi Gu'an inexplicably noticed a gaze staring at him, although at this Hundred Flowers Banquet, he looked at himself curiously, but most of them were malicious or good-looking, but this sight was extraordinary, just without any emotion, with a little kindness.

Xi Gu'an followed the line of sight and looked over, and just happened to bump into that pair of ancient and waveless eyes, which almost sucked people in completely, and people couldn't help but feel their hearts flutter at a glance.

Xi Gu comforted his chest, and complained to 9331 in order to divert attention from his brain: "It's over, I'm attracted by the villain's domineering spirit." ”

After not getting a response for a long time, Xi Guan remembered that his system cutie had gone to retreat and had not come back yet. And when she came back to her senses and looked at the man in front of her again, she found that the man had already looked away, as if the look just now was just her own delusion.

At this moment, the voice of the eldest princess sounded in a high place, and the meaning of the words also pointed in this direction.

"Gu An, it happened to be your turn just now, why don't you continue this song and let our Royal Highness King Ning comment on this No. 1 talented woman in Kyoto?"

Her words were too sharp, and even pointed with undisguised pointing.

Xi Gu'an just wanted to open his mouth to refuse, but he heard Ling Xiqian say lightly: "It just so happens that I am also very interested in Miss Xi." ”
