Contract Prince

Chapter 45 Confrontation

On the second day, Xiao Guan set up a tea party in the royal back garden.In view of the weak health of the son-in-law, Xiao Guan was afraid that Yu Wenyan would force his son-in-law to drink, so he changed the banquet into a tea party.In addition to the consort and his wife, the prince, several important officials in the court, and the Southern Chu monarch and ministers attended the tea party.

The stunning Xiao Muxue appeared in Yu Wenyan's eyes that day, his eyes almost fell to the ground, subconsciously wriggling his Adam's apple, swallowing wildly.

Yu Wenyan is extremely obsessed with Xiao Muxue, and he has been thinking about the sixth princess all the time in the past few years.When he saw Gu Yunjing holding Xiao Muxue's slender arms, his eyes were burning with rage, full of jealousy and killing intent.If eyes can kill a person, then Gu Yunjing will definitely die no less than a hundred times.

When Gu Yunjing hadn't taken his seat yet, a warm voice sounded next to his ear: "Presumably, this is the son-in-law."

In terms of status, Yu Wenyan's status is more noble than Gu Yunjing's, but he is also a monarch after all.Originally, he didn't need to be polite to Gu Yunjing, and the other party married his favorite woman, so Yu Wenyan's attitude towards the son-in-law would be even worse.

Gu Yunjing had never met Yu Wenyan face to face, but she could tell the identity of the speaker just by hearing the tone of voice.Gu Yunjing glanced at Yu Wenyan, she smiled slightly, cupped her hands respectfully and said, "I have seen the King of Southern Chu."

Before seeing Gu Yunjing, Yu Wenyan thought that the person who won the favor of the princess was a hero, but he didn't expect Xiao Guo's son-in-law to be a thin and weak person comparable to a woman.

The son-in-law is very good-looking, delicate and gentle.But Yu Wenyan couldn't appreciate this beauty. He was a battle-tested barbarian who licked blood with swords and guns and drank wine on horseback. He took it for granted that a good man should be full of blood and heroic, not like Gu Yun Jing looked like she would fall when the wind blows.

The more Yu Wenyan looked at the thin son-in-law, the more Yu Wenyan felt that Gu Yunjing was not good enough for Xiao Muxue, and he cursed in his heart: "Princess Six, this flower will be destroyed by your cow dung!"

Yu Wenyan said bluntly: "I was really surprised to meet the son-in-law today. I thought Xiao Guo's son-in-law was a bloody man, but after seeing him, I realized that he was actually weaker than a woman. It's windy today, you wear it, my son-in-law." It's so weak, isn't it afraid of being blown away by the wind?"

In the court yesterday, Xiao Guan embarrassed Yu Wenyan in front of the officials.What's the matter, today he also wants to humiliate Gu Yunjing, rub Xiao Guan's pride and prestige.

Xiao Guan specially arranged this tea party to see the scene of Gu Yunjing humiliating Yu Wenyan.Now, hearing the bearded man taunting his son-in-law made me feel uncomfortable.This is a contest between the son-in-law and Yu Wenyan. As an elder and emperor, it is not easy for him to intervene. Otherwise, even if the son-in-law wins, it will be invincible.

Xiao Guan looked at Yu Wenyan with cold eyes, looking extremely disgusted.Xiao Zhan wanted to stand up and speak for the son-in-law, but seeing that Xiao Guan hadn't spoken out, he didn't want to act recklessly, so he drank his tea in a silent manner.

As for Xiao Cong, although he hated Yu Wenyan, the root of this cancer was in Southern Chu, and people who were usually far away from each other had only come into contact with the cancer in these few days.

But Gu Yunjing is different, the son-in-law and Xiao Zhan stand on the same front, and usually see him without looking up.In comparison, the enemy Gu Yunjing is more hateful and terrifying than Yu Wenyan.Therefore, when seeing Yu Wenyan humiliating Gu Yunjing, Xiao Cong felt relieved.

For the fourth prince Xiao Lian and the fifth prince Xiao Yang, both sides were people who were neither relatives nor relatives of themselves, they could fight in any way they wanted, and the two of them came to the tea party with an attitude of watching the excitement.

Everyone was in various states, of course Xiao Muxue couldn't stand by and watch.Gu Yunjing is her husband, and she is the most qualified person to rescue her husband.Xiao Muxue and Yu Wenyan are of the same generation, even if they fight, they will not end up bullying the younger generation.

"The Lord of Southern Chu probably doesn't know something." Xiao Muxue's tone was respectful, but her voice was as cold as a cellar, "The customs and aesthetic concepts of our Xiao State are different from those of Southern Chu. Xiao State is a big country, and has always been ruled by courtesy The country. Because of this, we require the appearance of men to conform to etiquette, and the so-called etiquette is: modest gentleman, gentle and polite."

"The son-in-law has good features, is delicate and elegant, and can be called Mo Shangren Ruyu, a son who is unparalleled in the world." Speaking of this, Xiao Muxue smiled softly, "His appearance is the most in line with the standard of a handsome man."

The implication is that you, Yu Wenyan, come from the wild Southern Chu, and you are nothing more than a reckless bastard.

Xiao Muxue raised her pretty eyebrows: "Did the Lord of Nanchu understand Muxue's explanation?"

Xiao Muxue said neither humble nor overbearing, there was no disrespect in her words.But everyone present could hear that the sixth princess was naked. Naked. Naked. Sarcastic that Yu Wenyan came from a barbarian land and didn't know how to appreciate the beauty of etiquette.

Yu Wenyan also knew that Xiao Muxue was beating around the bush and scolding him.But his speaking skills are superb, tactful and subtle, and he doesn't use any dirty words when swearing.He is a rough man who speaks with his fists, and he usually scolds people with his parents and ancestors.

If you use vulgar words to scold Xiao Muxue at this time, it will appear that you are petty and uneducated.Xiao Muxue is Yu Wenyan's favorite woman, and he also wants to impress the princess.Therefore, Yu Wenyan had no room to retaliate.

He pretended to be suddenly enlightened, and said to Xiao Muxue: "Oh, so that's the case, I really didn't know there was such a thing, I'm so ignorant."

Gu Yunjing and Xiao Muxue looked at each other and smiled knowingly.This tacit movement was cultivated during several times of fighting side by side.

The baby girl really gave me a face, Xiao Guan Fuxu admired in his heart.The Chinese people in the field, except for Xiao Cong, all looked at this stunning woman with a kind of admiration.

Seeing Xiao Muxue trying her best to protect Gu Yunjing, Yu Wenyan felt sour and panicked, it was like drinking ten altars of old vinegar in an instant.

Yu Wenyan pretended to be full of smiles, and drank a few mouthfuls of tea to suppress his emotions.After drinking tea, his mind calmed down, and he came up with another way to punish Gu Yunjing.

Yu Wenyan smiled and said: "Since the son-in-law is the son of Marquis Zhenyuan, he must be proficient in riding and shooting. Yu Wenyan admires your father's marksmanship very much, and has been looking for opportunities to learn martial arts from him, but unfortunately he couldn't find time."

"I've heard for a long time that the Gu family's marksmanship is unparalleled. I don't know if I can ask the son-in-law for a lesson or two today. If it's done, it's my wish."

As Xiao Zhan expected, Yu Wenyan proposed a martial arts competition.After hearing this, everyone present knew that Yu Wenyan was deliberately provoking.Knowing that the son-in-law is weak, he deliberately picked on the son-in-law's shortcomings.

If it's about Biwen, Gu Yunjing has a good chance of winning.But when Yu Wenyan proposed a martial arts competition, Gu Yunjing might not even have a single chance of winning.

Leaving aside the question of the odds for now, the son-in-law's life might be in danger in this martial arts test.Yu Wenyan has always been cruel, and Gu Yunjing robbed his sixth princess. No one believed that he would not attack the son-in-law.

Although Xiao Guan cares about face, compared with his daughter's sweetheart, the latter is more important.

The emperor frowned and said: "The son-in-law has been weak since he was a child, and he is not good at riding and shooting. How can he compare with the king of Southern Chu? This is not an appropriate discussion."

Yu Wenyan originally thought that Xiao Guan, a face-saving person, would let his son-in-law compete with him. Since Xiao Guan said so, it shows that he cares a lot about Gu Yunjing, a son-in-law.

"It turns out that the son-in-law can't ride and shoot." Yu Wenyan touched his beard on both cheeks and smiled contemptuously, "It seems that my wish may not come true today.

He said with a little regret: "We can only find an opportunity to compete with your lord in the future."

Yu Wenyan smiled brightly: "I remember that the sixth princess is good at martial arts, the son-in-law should work hard and learn how to ride and shoot, otherwise it seems that he is not worthy of the princess."

Gu Yunjing rubbed the cup in his hand, pondered for a while, and said lightly: "It seems that the Lord of Southern Chu really wants to learn martial arts with me. It's not easy to get together today, and my son-in-law doesn't want to either." It swept away the king's happiness."

Gu Yunjing's words surprised everyone, and at the same time made Yu Wenyan full of joy. If Gu Yunjing had to fight with him, even if he hurt him, he could still shirk responsibility with the reason that swords have no eyes.

"The son-in-law is serious?" Yu Wenyan was afraid that his joy would be too much, so he paused and added, "If the son-in-law is not good at martial arts, you don't have to force it. Of course I want to see the power of the Gu family's marksmanship, but I must not It will not be difficult for others.”

Barbarians, duplicity, extremely hypocritical!Xiao Muxue couldn't help but angrily said in her heart.

Gu Yunjing said straightly: "It's very ashamed to say that I didn't learn the family's marksmanship due to my physical fitness. But since the monarch wants to compete, as the host, I should accompany you. If I propose to compete with the monarch of Nanchu, I must You'll agree too, right?"

Yu Wenyan did not hesitate: "This is natural."

"Since I'm weak, let's take a compromise method. How about hunting instead of marksmanship?" Gu Yunjing raised his eyes and looked at the blue sky, "It's March, the wind is sunny and the sun is shining. Nuan, it is indeed a good season for hunting. What does the King of Southern Chu think?"

What Yu Wenyan said about asking for advice on the Gu family's marksmanship is just an excuse, the purpose is to humiliate Gu Yunjing, and if possible, let this thin and weak son-in-law get a lot of attention.

Now, it seems that marksmanship is impossible to ask for advice, and can only be the next best thing.He criss-crossed the battlefield, started to learn riding and archery at the age of six, and became famous in Southern Chu at the age of sixteen.

Yu Wenyan felt that when Gu Yunjing competed with him in shooting and hunting, he was looking for abuse.So without thinking about it, he agreed: "Okay, I will follow the proposal of the son-in-law."

Gu Yunjing said indifferently: "Shooting is a very common activity. I'm tired of playing around. I have a fresh method. In the past, hunting is to shoot the prey to death, and then count the number of prey, the number of heads shot More wins."

"Today we are going to try a new hunting method. To be precise, it is not shooting hunting, but live hunting."

Live hunting?Yu Wenyan had never heard of this term before, so he couldn't help but feel refreshed. He asked, "What is live hunting?"

"The so-called live hunting, as the name suggests, means not shooting the prey to death, but catching them alive. In fact, if you think about it carefully, live hunting is more challenging. I wonder if the King of Southern Chu is interested?"
