Emperor Cheng De felt that Zhou Mu was a bit strange like this.
At this moment, the light where Zi Mo was standing was unclear, making his face look slightly gloomy.
He was used to seeing Zi Mo Yun's calm and elegant appearance, and thought that nothing would catch his eye.
Wasn't the other side of his son's gloominess brought out by Gu Xiyan?
Emperor Cheng De took a deep look at Zhou Mu and suddenly remembered that Zhou Mu had said earlier that he would arrange Gu Xiyan's marriage as soon as possible. Just now, his son said that he was not in a hurry to marry Gu Xiyan. Isn't this contradictory? p>
Emperor Chengde was a cunning and cunning person. He pretended not to know the Huacai in it and echoed: "What Zimo said is that Miss Gu's marriage will take her time. I don't know how many young talents there are in Jin Dynasty. Let Gu
Girls take their time and choose the best one before marrying!"
Zhou Mu responded vaguely, his eyes falling on the scene in the pavilion.
Gu Xiyan knows how to play chess, but he doesn't know.
"Someone is coming." Zhou Mu had good internal energy. When he heard the footsteps coming towards Fubi Pavilion, he immediately pulled Emperor Cheng De and hid around the corner.
The visitors are none other than Princess Yongjia and Princess Baohe.
When Princess Baohe saw Gu Xiyan chatting and laughing with Xu Yanqing, she suddenly became jealous.
She quickly rushed to Gu Xiyan and said arrogantly: "My princess is missing a companion. Starting tomorrow, Miss Gu will enter the palace to be my princess' companion!!"
Xu Yanqing's face changed slightly when he heard this. He was about to speak when Gu Xiyan got in front of him and said, "Don't His Highness look down on people's girls? There are so many noble girls in the capital. If a girl like this becomes His Highness's companion,
, I’m afraid it will cause His Highness to be laughed at, so please think again.”
"This princess wants you to be my companion!"
Zhou Mu heard this clearly and looked at Emperor Chengde after hearing the words.
Emperor Chengde could see through the meaning of Zhou Mu's eyes at a glance, which was for him, the emperor, to come forward and stop Baohe from causing trouble.
He was about to go out to mediate, but he heard Princess Yongjia continue her words: "Baohe, forceful melons are not sweet. Otherwise, I will play a game of chess with Miss Gu. If Miss Gu loses, I will be your companion."
On the contrary, Miss Gu does not need to be your companion."
Xu Yanqing coughed twice and wondered whether he should remind Princess Yongjia that Gu Xiyan was not that easy to bully.
At this moment, Gu Xiyan answered the conversation gently: "The chess skills of civilian girls are really average..."
"Miss Gu, are you going to admit defeat?!" Princess Yongjia looked at Gu Xiyan with obvious mockery in her eyes, and she was impatient to hear what Gu Xiyan had to say.
So, Gu Xiyan is just a loser who can't stand up to the wall. How can he have the face to show off in front of these golden people?
Xu Yanqing took one look at Gu Xiyan, who seemed soft and harmless, and then looked at the powerful Princess Yongjia, and decided to keep her mouth shut.
He can just watch the excitement.
"Then please give me some advice, Princess Yongjia." Naturally, Gu Xiyan would not give in easily, so she no longer refused and accepted Princess Yongjia's challenge.
She just tried her best to fight.
Princess Yongjia prides herself on her superb chess skills. Looking at all the noble ladies in the capital, very few can beat her in chess skills.
The reason why she wanted to play chess with Gu Xiyan was because she felt that Gu Xiyan was particularly unpleasant to her eyes. Just now, whether it was Zhou Xing, Xu Yanqing, or the other men present, their eyes were fixed on Gu Xiyan's face.
Isn’t it true that Gu Xiyan was born beautiful, and wasn’t her marriage canceled by King Qin’s cousin in the end?
Such a person doesn't keep his head down and dares to provoke Bao He and doesn't give Gu Xiyan any color. She can't swallow this feeling.
Gu Xiyan didn't know that Princess Yongjia didn't like her. She just thought that since she wanted to play chess, she had to go all out. However, she didn't really have any actual combat experience, just because she watched chess a lot, and it was
This is the main reason why she was lucky enough to win against Xu Yanqing in a game between masters.
Of course, she won just now because Xu Yanqing let her go. She didn't think Princess Yongjia would let her.
Xu Yanqing was watching the battle from the sidelines. Of course he regarded Gu Xiyan as his little friend and stood beside Gu Xiyan as a matter of course.
Princess Yongjia was dissatisfied: "Master Xu is not allowed to give Miss Gu a hint. Please stand further away."
Xu Yanqing had no objection and went to sit down at another stone table.
Judging from his experience in losing chess just now, Princess Yongjia will probably end up in the same fate as him.
What's more, Princess Yongjia prides herself on being noble and looks down on Gu Xiyan from the bottom of her heart. The fact that she despises her enemies makes Princess Yongjia lose the opportunity.
The facts are as Xu Yanqing expected, and the history is surprisingly similar.
Gu Xiyan's chess skills seem to be disorganized and her moves are very random. She seems to play wherever she thinks.
Princess Yongjia felt that playing chess with an idiot like Gu Xiyan was a waste of her time. She felt that Gu Xiyan could be dealt with in less than a quarter of an hour.
Princess Yongjia was full of confidence in herself, so she despised Gu Xiyan more and more, thinking that she was just a loser beauty, and that such a person was not worth her troubles.
Exactly a quarter of an hour later, Princess Yongjia found that her chess piece was surrounded by Gu Xiyan. She didn't know what her next move should be. Perhaps it should be said that she had no way out.
She looked at the chess board in disbelief, breathing a little hard, muttering to herself: "Impossible, impossible..."
Xu Yanqing, who was watching the commotion on the sidelines, couldn't help it. He laughed so hard that he stepped forward to watch, not forgetting to add insult to injury: "Hey, the princess's chess skills are not very good. Why did she only move away for a moment under Miss Gu's chess?"
Zhong Bian was completely defeated?"
Princess Yongjia's face is very ugly and changes all over the place, like a color palette.
It took her a while to find her voice, and she shouted: "She, she cheated!!"
This must be the case, otherwise how could she lose so quickly?
The smile on Xu Yanqing's face disappeared in an instant, and he curled his lips with a sneer: "The princess can't afford to lose? I was far away just now, and the two people playing chess were the princess and Miss Gu. What would she do?
Cheating? Losing is the second best thing. Don’t lose your character as well, that would be embarrassing!”
Princess Yongjia had never been humiliated like this in her life. It was obvious that she wanted to humiliate Gu Xiyan, but instead she was humiliated by Gu Xiyan, an orphan girl.
"Miss Gu is very good at chess. I admire you." When Xu Yanqing faced Gu Xiyan, he immediately put on a soft smile. His eyes when he looked at Gu Xiyan were focused and enthusiastic.
Gu Xiyan replied honestly: "I'm actually not very good at chess. I just get lucky."
After hearing what she said, Xu Yanqing couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Princess Yongjia was furious. How could there be such a pretentious woman in the world? She was extremely hypocritical!
Unwilling to admit defeat, she roared angrily: "Gu Xiyan, I want to play another game with you!!"
She didn't believe it anymore, she couldn't win against this hypocritical woman.
