Chapter 276: Bitter and Sweet
Chi Jingyu pinched her fingers distressedly, thought about it, and said: "This thing is actually not difficult to do, since it doesn't make sense, I can only use action to make her retreat." ”
Bai Wushuang glanced at him, "What do you want to do?" ”
"If we are more affectionate than Jin and let her understand that it is impossible to get the life she wants, do you say, will she take the initiative to give up?" Chi Jingyu smiled unfathomably.
In the end, he is also a smart person, Bai Wushuang instantly understood, his thoughts flew around, he stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he smiled like a little fox who had stolen a fishy little fox, "Good idea, tomorrow, it will be a great time." ”
The queen ordered the people in the palace to hand over an invitation letter yesterday, saying that the first tea in the imperial garden had grown up, and invited everyone to a tea party. Princess Ji Yao, as a distinguished guest, will naturally go, a great opportunity, how can she not go.
Following.
Bai Wushuang and the two went to the palace together.
In order to achieve the goal, the two of them were deliberately dressed in white clothes, the jade pendant around the waist, the hair crown and the hosta on the top of the head were all a pair, even if it was just a glance, it could be seen that the relationship between the two was very good.
After getting out of the carriage, Chi Jingyu was not in a hurry to leave, stretched out his hand and hugged the people in the car, and reminded in a low voice: "Be careful." Even when they walked, the two of them held hands, occasionally looked at each other and smiled, looking extremely intimate.
Both of them are first-class in appearance, dressed similarly at the moment, with intimate movements, looking like a pair of fairy couples, envious of others.
Seeing this, the queen covered her mouth and chuckled, and exclaimed: "The relationship between the two of you is really good, but you are really a pair of beautiful people." ”
Bai Wushuang blushed at the right time, and said shyly: "Let the mother smile." ”
Chi Jingyu didn't say anything, he watched from the side, his smiling eyes saw that Bai Wushuang was really blushing, and gently bumped him with his elbow, signaling him to converge.
Chi Jingyu smiled even more, and teased her even harder.
"Okay, okay, you two are really going to drown, and my people are going to be blind." Yun Qipei covered his eyes and quipped in the old saying.
The innocuous words made everyone laugh, and even the emperor couldn't help but laugh.
Ji Yao couldn't laugh, her eyes were staring at the two of them tightly, and her delicate lips were almost bitten and bleeding. Since Chi Jingyu came in, her eyes have been falling on him, and she has never moved away, but that person has never looked at her from beginning to end, and there is only that person in her eyes.
Looking at the intimate little movements between the two, I felt more and more dazzling, and the jealousy in my heart burned higher and higher, and he seemed to smile and said: "The relationship between Madame and General Chi is so good, there must be something fascinating about Madame, right?" ”
Everyone present knew about the marriage, and when they saw this, they were suddenly silent, curiously looking back and forth between the three of them.
Bai Wushuang hooked his lips and smiled, "Naturally, it is not as good as the princess, but this tea-making skill is worth seeing, few people are opponents, maybe even the princess is not as good." ”
Ji Yao's heart was already unhappy, and when she heard the words, she didn't even disdain to disguise, and said with a gloomy face: "You mean that this princess is not as good as you?" ”
"Maybe." Bai Wushuang was very calm and hateful, "The princess is not convinced, how about a competition over and over again?" ”
"Okay, it's hard that the princess is still afraid of you!" Ji Yao sneered and responded immediately.
Hooked.
Bai Wushuang's eyes flashed as he continued, "Since it's a competition, how can you do it without a little bet. Since you and I both take a fancy to Chi Jingyu, then like this, if I lose, I will take the initiative to ask for divorce from my wife, and I will never appear in front of you again. If you lose, then you give up the marriage. Does the princess dare to bet? ”
Ji Yao is already an arrogant person, and he can't stand to be provoked the most, so he immediately responded, "Is it possible that I am still afraid of you?!" ”
As an outsider, Yun Qilin instantly understood Bai Wushuang's purpose and kindly reminded Ji Yao.
But Ji Yao was completely inappropriate, she didn't believe that she would lose, and even invited the emperor and queen to witness, "This bet is made in front of Your Majesty and Niangniang, when the time comes, it's best if you don't regret it." ”
Bai Wushuang glanced at the emperor, and seeing that he had no intention of objecting, he smiled and nodded, "Then let's compete!" ”
Because it was a tea party, the tools present were very complete, and the competition began immediately.
Bai Wushuang sat calmly at the table and began to boil tea slowly. For tea art, she is really confident, she has such a hobby in her last life, and she has been learning tea ceremony for many years, and she can't be called a master, but she is more than a step higher than this pampered princess.
Compared with her slow and methodical, the rhythm of Princess Ji Yao's side is much tighter.
Her country is located in the Western Regions, and she is not very proficient in the tea ceremony, but she has also learned it in the end, and with that sense of superiority, she believes that she will not lose.
Time passed little by little, and the entire imperial garden was filled with the fragrance of tea, which made people feel refreshed for a while.
Putting the boiled tea in the tea Gu, ignoring Ji Yao's provocative gaze, Bai Wushuang took out a small piece of sugar crystal from his sleeve and put it into the tea, and the sugar crystal dissolved in water.
The emperor and queen picked up Ji Yao's cup of tea, took a sip, tasted it for a long time, and said: "The taste is mellow, the tea is clear and cold, and the craftsmanship is good!" ”
Ji Yao covered her mouth and chuckled, and there was a smug look between her eyebrows.
Chi Jingyu was a little nervous, his eyes stared at Bai Wushuang tightly, for fear that she would lose, the bet was really too ruthless, if she really left and would not see her for the rest of her life, then what should he do.
Receiving his gaze, Bai Wushuang blinked, signaling him to rest assured.
I saw the queen pick up her cup of tea, took a sip, her face suddenly changed dramatically, and she savored it for a long time, and then she exclaimed: "The taste of this tea is bitter and sweet, so strange, but it makes people love it tightly, and the sweetness is really memorable." ”
The emperor also took a sip, and was full of praise, and said curiously: "How did you do this?" ”
Bai Wushuang smiled: "It's just a little trick. Most of the first tea is bitter, even if it is boiled, it is difficult to remove, but if you add a little sugar crystal, bitter and sweet, just like life. ”
The emperor's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he couldn't stop nodding, "Good insight!" As he spoke, he took another sip and announced, "I declare, the winner, Bai Wushuang!" ”
Chi Jingyu's heart was relieved, his eyebrows couldn't help but bend up, and he couldn't hide the smile in his eyes at Bai Wushuang's bright eyes, and he winked at him in a good mood to show his appreciation.
Bai Wushuang smiled back, and the intimacy between the two was publicized.
Ji Yao was dumbfounded for a long time before she finally reacted, her face stunned, and her tone was incredulous.
"I ...... Lost? ”
Looking at her fixedly, Bai Wushuang said in a deep voice: "I hope the princess will keep her promise." ”
Hearing this, Ji Yao came back to her senses, although she was still a little unconvinced in her heart, but the arrogance of her identity made her make a decision immediately, turned her head to look at Bai Wushuang, and nodded at her.
"I will."
Bai Wushuang said "um", and saw Ji Yao raise his eyes directly to look at the emperor, "Your Majesty, Ji Yao requests to dissolve the marriage contract with General Chi!" ”
looked left and right at the reactions of other people, and then looked at Chi Jingyu, seeing that he looked indifferent, as if it was none of his business, the emperor sighed with emotion.
"Since Princess Ji Yao has decided, then this marriage contract will be stopped."
Speaking of this, the emperor changed his words and continued to ask her: "I just don't know, Princess Ji Yao still likes other princes?" ”
As soon as these words came out, a flash of light suddenly flashed in the eyes of the second prince and the third prince, and they were thinking in their hearts.
Ji Yao's mind had been on Chi Jingyu before, and he didn't know much about other princes, but now when he was asked this question, he suddenly hesitated.
Seeing that she didn't speak, he thought she was shy, and the emperor laughed and turned to look at the other princes.
"I wonder if the emperors are interested in Princess Ji Yao?"
This question made Ji Yao couldn't help but be slightly stunned and peeked at it.
After all, she is here to kiss, and she must choose one.
I saw that the second prince stepped forward without hesitation: "Father, the son is willing to marry Princess Ji Yao." ”
was preempted by him, and a dark light flashed in the eyes of the third prince, and he also stepped forward and hugged his fists: "Erchen is also willing." ”
As a princess, the power brought by Ji Yao is enough to cause them to covet.
But at this moment, Ji Yao's voice came from aloud.
"Your Majesty, this matter is a matter of friendship between the two countries, and I ask the emperor to allow Ji Yao to think about it for some time."
The voice was not loud or small, which happened to be heard by everyone present, and the two were silent for a moment.
What is at stake in the friendship between the two countries, this shows that they don't look down on them!
However, with such a big hat buttoned down, the emperor couldn't refuse, so he had to say: "Then Princess Ji Yao will go back and think about it for a few days, and if she has an idea, she will talk to me, okay?" ”
Ji Yao understood. But Ji Yao was really tired and wanted to go back and take a rest. ”
There was a hint of coquettishness in this tone, which invisibly eased the atmosphere, and the emperor immediately waved his hand and agreed to her request.
Ji Yao smiled, didn't even look at Bai Wushuang and Chi Jingyu, and after retreating, she turned around and left.
Although the second prince and the third prince were rejected in disguise, they did not get angry, but quietly retreated.
This tea party, because of what happened to Fang Cai, everyone also lost interest and quickly ended.
With Chi Jingyu returning to the General's Mansion together, Bai Wushuang's mood was also much lighter, and he couldn't help but laugh and joke.
"Did you see it, when the second prince left, his face was not good-looking!"
Hearing this, Chi Jingyu paused, glanced at her sideways, and chuckled: "Naturally, it's not as good-looking as me." ”
"I mean, he's in a bad mood, maybe he's going to make some kind of moth!"
Glancing at him helplessly, returning to the room, Bai Wushuang pulled over the chair and sat down.
But people didn't take her words to heart at all, and only said calmly: "The soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it." ”
Bai Wushuang: "......"
Still, she wasn't wrong.
On the other side, just when he went back, the second prince sent someone to buy medicine.
In this matter, it is obvious that Ji Yao didn't take a fancy to him, nor did he fancy the third prince, and now he is faster than anyone's hand.
