Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 286 Ruthless Just Don't Hurt

It's this time, and the Crown Princess still looks leisurely and contented. If she's not very confident in herself, she's really very magnanimous...

But no matter what, it doesn't matter to Gu Yuci.

What she wanted was never love and love!
With a glance at the end of her eyes, her smile became even brighter: "That's good, I like Cuju too. Since the sisters are so elegant, why don't we form a team together?"

"Okay, okay!" Cui Yurong clapped his hands excitedly, "I asked my brother to bring the people from Yemensi over. They will form a men's team, and we will form a women's team!"

Zhao Xi didn't care, but one person was a little taken aback.

This person is Pei Zhenzhen.

Seeing Gu Yuci's smiling face, she suddenly remembered the rumors in Beijing.

So after so many years, after the ups and downs of the Gu family, Miss Gu's obsession has not stopped?

Back then the prince refused so simply, if she had definitely given up!
After thinking about it again, it is probably the same as myself, one is to win glory for the family, and the other is, maybe it is because of a competitive heart?
Pei Zhenzhen curled her lips into a smile, and felt that things became more and more interesting.

She raised her eyebrows and looked at Gu Yuci, and said leisurely: "Okay! But we are talking about strength, the first three rounds are knockout rounds, and the winner of the last three rounds is determined. Sister Yuci, don't fail to make it!" There were quite a few words Very high spirited.

Gu Yuci nodded, very seriously: "That's natural."

Qiao Yunqian lay in Mrs. Qiao's arms, pretending to be shy: "That's over, I can't compare to you in terms of physical fitness, once I get to the field, I can't even control the horse, I'm afraid I'm doomed!"

Mrs. Qiao put her arms around her daughter, worried: "Yemensi is a guard in the palace, and he is practicing in the school field on weekdays. It doesn't matter what you do, you better be careful."

Mrs. Cui said: "That's the reason. I'll talk to Yutang later and tell him to give way to my sister!"

Others don't know the purpose of this Cuju, but Mrs. Pei knows it.Holding the teacup, she pointedly said: "Since it is a competition, there will always be winners and losers. If her skills are not as good as others and she loses, she will be willing to accept it. How can you expect others to give way!"

Cui Yurong patted Pei Zhenzhen on the shoulder, with a confident face: "What are you afraid of, there is our sister Zhenzhen! Mother, you forgot, last year, sister Zhenzhen led a group of us girls to beat up the dozen or so young masters in the capital. Falling flowers and flowing water!"

"Yes, yes!" When mentioning that match, the young girls all showed admiration, "When it comes to riding and shooting, Miss Zhenzhen really doesn't give a damn!"

Someone over there muttered in a low voice: "I just lost to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."

The corners of Gu Yuci's lips curled up, and his eyes were shining brightly: "Will your Highness participate in this Cuju competition?"

Who can answer this?
All the female relatives present cast their eyes on Zhao Xiwei.

Zhao Xiwei ate half of the orange, and the sweet and cool taste remained between her teeth. She squinted her eyes with a very satisfied expression, and said with a smile, "Your Highness is busy with work, so I don't know if I can participate in the competition."

Although she disdains to compete with other women to be jealous, she is not a living Bodhisattva, and she is by no means stupid enough to cause trouble for herself.

As for Pei Zhenzhen and Gu Yuci's eagerness to move, after receiving Li Xuanye's statement, she no longer had any major emotional fluctuations.

Between husband and wife, the most important thing is mutual trust, and the most taboo thing is mutual suspicion.

As the crown prince of a country, if he really wanted to accept a side concubine, ten or hundreds of them could be justifiably accepted. Not to mention that a crown princess couldn't stop her, even the civil and military men of the Manchu Dynasty couldn't stop her.

Therefore, when Li Xuanye expressed his attitude to her, she chose to believe it [-]%.

It's strange to say that although the two of them haven't been together for a long time, she just feels from the bottom of her heart that he is a man who keeps his word.

Zhao Xiwei's attitude was neither salty nor indifferent, and everyone didn't understand why, but he didn't dare to say anything more, he just laughed a few times in embarrassment, and said: "What the Crown Princess said is very true, His Royal Highness is busy with official duties, I'm afraid I don't have the time to participate Cuju."

Pei Zhenzhen's smile froze, and her enthusiasm suddenly faded.

Although Gu Yuci was not as disappointed as she was, she was also somewhat disappointed.

At this time, Mrs. Gu who had been drinking tea quietly spoke up suddenly.

She glanced at everyone at the banquet, and said with an amiable smile: "A few days ago, I got a harp, and the sound is very soft and clear. Today, the Crown Princess is here, why don't we let Ci'er play and sing for the Crown Princess?"

Everyone's eyes turned to Zhao Xiwei again.

Only then did I realize that, as the most important guest of the banquet, the Crown Princess hadn't spoken much, but was eating oranges elegantly and attentively.

Zhao Xiwei didn't respond in time, but stretched out two light-white fingers, pinched a piece of yellow orange, and tore off the white tangerine vein little by little.

The smile on Mrs. Gu's amiable face became a little stiff.

Everyone's eyes became a little apprehensive.

Cui Yurong tugged on Pei Zhenzhen's sleeve quietly, and said in a low voice, "Sister Wei seems to like you more!"

Pei Zhenzhen glared at her: "You're talking nonsense again!"

Cui Yurong whispered to her: "Think about it, last time you went to the East Palace, sister Wei treated you so well..."

"Be careful if you talk nonsense again, I'll beat you!" Pei Zhenzhen pushed her away, with a hint of complacency at the corner of his mouth.

Yes, the Crown Princess treats her much better than Gu Yuci!

After Zhao Xiwei finished eating the oranges, the maid came up with a brocade handkerchief, she wiped her hands slowly, and then said leisurely, "Madam Gu is so kind, how can I refuse?"

While speaking, he glanced at Gu Yuci with a smile: "Miss Gu is really talented and beautiful!"

Gu Yuci's beautiful peach blossom eyes were bright and affectionate: "To be praised by the princess, Yuci is lucky for three lives!"

The corner of Zhao Xiwei's mouth curled up slightly, and he didn't speak any more.

Compared with a pampered daughter like Pei Zhenzhen who is ignorant of the world, a mature and calm woman like Gu Yuci is really a strong opponent.

Pei Zhenzhen is just an ignorant girl, she may not have any purpose towards Li Xuanye, she just refuses to admit defeat.

But Gu Yuci was different.

She is purposeful, tenacious, and most importantly, she is not looking for affection.

No heart hurts.

Although the two of them did not face each other, they were still undercurrents.

Madam Cui's mind is the most exquisite, and she was the first to feel this subtle change.

Then he smiled to smooth things over: "I heard that Miss Gu studied under Li Ping, a court musician since she was a child. When she was ten years old, she used a konghou to amaze His Majesty again and again, praising Miss Gu for her extraordinary talent. In time, she will become a national player. I didn't expect that we would also It is an honor to have this!"

"What kind of national player is it? It's just playing for fun!" Mrs. Gu laughed, and instructed the maid.

After a while, someone brought up a harp.

In front of the hall, there is a brocade mattress and a red floor furnace, and the green agarwood is pouring out of Tusu.

Gu Yuci sat down calmly.

The jade fingers are flying, the plain wrist is lightly raised, cold light melts in front of the twelve gates, and the twenty-three silk moves the purple emperor.

The sound of the harp, like pendant beads and broken jade, flows from the nine heavens.
