Hearing her name, Murong Haitang came back to her senses.
He looked at the woman in front of him with a surprised expression.
"Do you know me?" Murong Haitang asked doubtfully.
Before Xile could respond, Murong Haitang was slightly startled, then chuckled and said, "It turns out to be Her Royal Highness the eldest princess."
This time it was Xile's turn to be surprised, "You recognize me? I do have some discernment."
I couldn't tell whether Xile's words to Murong Haitang were complimentary or sarcastic, but after all, the tone didn't sound very good.
Murong Haitang clearly felt Xile's hostility towards her.
Although she is considered Dawu's princess today, she has also heard some rumors about Xile, especially how Xile was favored.
As a new arrival, she didn't want to offend the eldest princess all at once.
Murong Haitang is not so arrogant that he can be compared with Xile.
Immediately after giving a salute to Xi Le, "I don't know if it was your Royal Highness, the eldest princess, but Haitang was negligent. I will leave now. Please don't worry about it, your highness."
After saying that, Murong Haitang was ready to quit.
Wu Yuan watched from a distance and did not stop her. Murong Haitang was free and could naturally make her own decisions about whatever she wanted to do.
However, Wu Yuan did not think that Xile would let Murong Haitang go easily.
What's the reason? It doesn't need to be too much. Xile must have guessed that the reason why he was able to escape from the small building had something to do with Murong Haitang.
This was enough for Xile to target Murong Haitang.
Wu Yuan understood, and so did Murong Haitang, so he proposed leaving without hesitation and kept his attitude to a minimum.
"stop!"
Sure enough, Xile still spoke up to stop it.
Murong Haitang almost hated Wu Yuan in her heart. On the first day she became a princess, she offended the eldest princess, who even the current Emperor Wu had to give in to.
Will life be better after this?
"What else do you have to say to Her Royal Highness the Princess?" On the surface, Murong Haitang asked calmly, acting very calm.
Xile chuckled, "No need to be pretentious, Wu Yuan and you appeared here at the same time. It seems that you were also in the small building just now, so I underestimated you."
Murong Haitang neither admitted nor denied this.
All you have to do is say: "Your Highness, the eldest princess, the prince has been very kind to me, that's why I'm standing here."
This sentence has a double meaning, referring to the past events as well as the immediate events.
Xile said impatiently: "Don't tell me this, I won't beat around the bush, just go all out and let the piano speak. If you win, nothing will happen to me, but if you lose,
, I don’t think that such mediocre people are qualified to become our Dawu princess.”
Murong Haitang's expression changed drastically. Xile actually wanted to deprive her of everything she had gained so easily.
But Xile also gave her a problem.
Murong Haitang is now not sure whether Xile is telling the truth or irony.
Murong Haitang was faced with a dilemma as to whether he should go all out or not.
Xile looked at Murong Haitang's expression and raised the corners of her mouth, "What? You don't really think you can manipulate me at will, do you?"
Only then did I realize that Xile was the eldest princess, and she must be outstanding at playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, so why did she come to give in?
Murong Haitang felt more and more on pins and needles.
Just when Murong Haitang was in trouble, Wu Yuan suddenly said, "I have a song here that I can give to Miss Haitang. Is Miss Haitang willing to accept it?"
Murong Haitang was stunned. At this time, it seems difficult for her to win by composing on the spot, right?
Besides, does she lack music? What she lacks is self-confidence. Facing the eldest princess's self-confidence, it is difficult for her to calm down at the moment. If she plays the piano in this state, she knows that the result will be very bad without even thinking about it.
However, Wu Yuan said: "Miss Hua Huo, you don't mind, right? After all, you are so confident?"
Xile's eyes were filled with disdain and strong confidence, "Then I'll give you a stick of incense."
Murong Haitang frowned. She could admit that she was not as good as Xile in terms of status.
But when it comes to piano skills, Murong Haitang is as confident as any of her peers.
Even some famous luthiers like Murong Haitang have the courage to compete.
Being despised by Xile at this moment made Murong Haitang feel very uncomfortable.
Just when he was feeling complicated, Wu Yuanyou smiled and said, "You are generous, you are worthy of being a fireworks girl."
After that, he waved to Murong Haitang, who was still in a daze.
Murong Haitang hesitated for a moment, but finally came over.
But Murong Haitang had already planned to explain to Wu Yuan that he did not want to continue the competition.
In a competition with Xile, no matter whether he wins or loses, he will not come out well, so it is better to admit defeat now.
But when he arrived, Wu Yuan just said: "Come on, come on, I'll teach you how to play backgammon."
Murong Haitang was a little confused. At this time, Wu Yuan called her here just to play chess?
"Prince, I want to tell you..."
Before Murong Haitang could finish his words, Wu Yuan said, "In one stick of incense, after playing chess with me, you can stay or leave as you wish."
Hearing what Wu Yuan said, Murong Haitang was surprised and a little confused about Wu Yuan's purpose of asking her to play chess. Didn't he just say that he would teach her some music?
Although she didn't intend to compete, Murong Haitang was still interested in the music composed by Wu Yuan.
There is also a backgammon that I have never seen before. Is it too crude?
There is no chess set more shabby than a chessboard painted on the ground and scattered chess pieces, right?
"Let me tell you about this backgammon..."
Wu Yuan didn't care about that at all. He had just used the chessboard and chess pieces to hit people, so he had no choice but to do this and immediately told Murong Haitang how to play backgammon.
Murong Haitang understood such a simple rule as soon as she heard it.
Just like that, the two started playing chess.
Xile looked at it from a distance and just said disdainfully, "Humph, you are pretending to be a ghost."
But they did not notice that although Wu Yuan did not teach Murong Haitang lyrics and music, he told Murong Haitang a story, the story of "Journey to the West: The Kingdom of Daughters".
Although it was a bit confusing, Murong Haitang still listened to it, and also assumed the role of the king of the daughter country. The feeling of being unable to love made Murong Haitang feel uncomfortable.
But at this moment, a humming sound suddenly came from my ears.
"Mandarin ducks and butterflies fly together. The spring scenery in the garden is intoxicating. I quietly ask the holy monk if my daughter is beautiful... What about royal power, wealth..."
As Wu Yuan hummed casually every sentence, Murong Haitang's eyes widened.
Even though sometimes Wu Yuan's tone was so soft that it was difficult to hear clearly, Murong Haitang was still deeply involved in it, and even the chess piece in his hand did not fall down for a long time...
