Lu Chen smiled, and his originally clear eyebrows suddenly became brighter.
Gu Chengyu's forehead twitched. Who said he had superb skills? Could it be Zhu Pang?
He looked at Zhu Pang on the side and saw that Zhu Pang was a little guilty, and couldn't help but feel very angry. He was a traitor who specializes in cheating his friends.
"I don't know where Brother Lu heard this from, but actually Gu..." Gu Chengyu was about to explain, but in the blink of an eye he saw Lu Chen looking like he was smiling but not smiling.
He was a little dumb for a moment. When he was throwing pot with his classmates in the Imperial College, he didn't show any sharpness.
It's just that Zhu Pang knew a little bit about his skills. Zhu Pang must have dug a hole for him when he was provoked by others.
Forget it! Since the master’s family has come to invite him, it would be disrespectful if he didn’t go.
"Actually, Gu is not very proficient, but I would like to see the superb skills of Prince Qin and Brother Lu."
Gu Chengyu smiled. Lu Chen's attitude was a bit abnormal after seeing him today. He didn't know what he was trying to do.
Qin Min didn't expect Gu Chengyu to say that, but he wasn't afraid.
He has practiced martial arts since he was a child, otherwise he would not seek a military career.
He had often played pot throwing before, and he was used to riding a horse and archery, so it was not difficult for him to hit the pot with perfect accuracy.
"In that case, let's go together!" Qin Min said and took the lead.
Gu Chengyu glared at Zhu Pang helplessly and made an invitation gesture to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen nodded and walked towards the Huxin Pavilion with his hands behind his back, but an evil smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Ahem! Who told Min Feng to compare you and say that your pot throwing skills are terrible? Don't I get used to him saying bad things about you?"
Zhu Pang muttered behind Gu Chengyu.
These are all trivial matters, and he knows that Jin Yu doesn't care about these false reputations.
But Min Feng would take advantage of Jin Yu's face whenever he got the chance, and that's all for other confidential matters!
For example, if Jin Yu knew martial arts and was pretty good at it, he would never reveal it to outsiders unless Jin Yu told him.
He felt that Min Feng could not take advantage of such a trivial matter.
Although Gu Chengyu was helpless, he knew that Zhu Pang was measured. After getting along with him for more than three years, he had a fairly good understanding of Zhu Pang's temperament.
Zhu Pang is not a person who accepts others easily. If the relationship is not good, Zhu Pang will never be defenseless in front of others.
Only after he recognizes you in his heart will he truly treat you as one of his own.
Of course, he still has a bottom line and won't talk about everything.
He is also a man of loyalty. As long as you are sincere to him, he will repay you with sincerity.
Therefore, even if some insignificant things were revealed, I would not be too dissatisfied with Zhu Pang.
However, in order to prevent this kid from developing the habit of tricking him in the future, Gu Chengyu felt that he had to beat him hard.
Gu Chengyu followed Qin Shizi and the others onto the bridge, carefully admiring the surrounding scenery.
The bridge is not high, only a little higher than the water surface. It is not long, and the Lake Center Pavilion is not in the center of the lake, not far from the shore.
When the people in the pavilion in the middle of the lake saw Qin Shizi and others coming, they quickly gave up their seats.
As soon as Gu Chengyu stepped into the Huxin Pavilion, he heard the singing of warblers and swallows coming from the third courtyard.
It turned out that due to the wind direction and the hanging flower door not yet opened, Gu Chengyu did not hear the female family members' voices.
I looked over there again and saw only a field of viburnum flowers. Large tracts of white viburnum flowers gathered together, it was simply beautiful.
Gu Chengyu couldn't help but be a little stunned. Lu Chen was really right. The Qionghua in the Princess's Mansion was really beautiful.
"It's your first time to see so many viburnums, right? It's a pity that there aren't any in this courtyard. All the viburnums are in the third courtyard. But looking from a distance, it's even more shocking." Lu Chen came to Gu Chengyu's side,
Looking at Qionghua, I was lost in thought.
Min Feng's face has not looked good since Gu Chengyu came to Huxin Pavilion.
He didn't expect that Qin Shizi and Lu Chen valued Gu Chengyu so much and even went to invite her personally.
Gu Chengyu is really hypocritical. He speaks in a high-minded manner, as if he doesn't care.
After coming to Huxinting, what is the difference between your behavior and that of those from aristocratic families?
In fact, Min Feng was completely judging others based on his own thoughts. Gu Chengyu was really looking at Qionghua, and he did not notice the female relatives opposite him.
However, Gu Chengyu didn't pay attention there, but there was someone at the female family looking at him.
"Third sister! Look, isn't that Mr. Gu?"
Yao Mengdie tugged on Yao Mengxian's sleeves in surprise. She was disappointed when she didn't see Gu Chengyu just now.
After all, people will want to appreciate such a beautiful appearance, and it has nothing to do with love.
Yao Mengxian's heart moved. According to Li Chengyu's temperament, he didn't like to join in such fun. Unexpectedly, he also came to the eldest princess's mansion and even went to the Huxin Pavilion.
She turned around and looked towards the Huxin Pavilion. Although it was a little far away, she could still see the tall and straight figure. Who could that be if it wasn't Gu Chengyu?
Today, Gu Chengyu is wearing a snow-blue base with white magnolia embellished stand-up collar, buttoned right-hand robe, and gray ruffles on the cuffs, which Gu Wan made for him.
Since the invention of buckles, Gu Wan often made robes decorated with buckles when making clothes for Gu Chengyu. This kind of clothes was what Gu Wan admired the most.
It is said that the color makes him taller, and the style makes his figure more slender.
Yao Mengxian saw Gu Chengyu wear this dress once, so she had some impressions of it.
"It's him! I didn't expect him to come too." After Yao Mengxian glanced twice, she turned around and blocked Yao Mengdie's gaze.
"Oops! Third sister, you are blocking me. Who is that person next to him? Look at that outfit, he must be of high status, right?"
Yao Mengxian frowned, "You are a guest in someone else's house. It is already rude for you to behave like this."
Yao Mengdie refused to accept it and pouted: "Then you see they are watching too!"
"Who are you looking at? Who is that person? I know the person next to him. He is Lu Chen, the second son of Zhan Yuanhou Mansion."
"Do you know him? He turns out to be the young master of Zhan Yuanhou Mansion. Don't you recognize the man standing next to him? That's Master Gu Chengyu."
"He is Mr. Gu! He looks really young."
The female family members were embarrassed to talk about a man's appearance, so they only talked about his age.
Yao Menglian noticed the movement there and looked towards the Huxin Pavilion. She only glanced twice and then turned around.
It is undeniable that Gu Chengyu is definitely one of the most handsome men in the capital, but it is a pity that his background is not good.
Next to him, Lu Chen was a young master from an aristocratic family, but it was a pity that the Hou family looked down upon the daughter of a fifth-rank official like her.
Ever since Yao Mengdie mentioned Mr. Gu just now, Princess Rongjia put down her tea bowl and looked towards the Huxin Pavilion.
Seeing Gu Chengyu and Lu Chen looking at Qionghua in a daze, Qin Min coughed quickly and said, "Although Qionghua is beautiful, you can't be so absorbed in looking at it, right?"
Although the female family members on the opposite side of the lake pavilion are not very clear, they cannot be seen clearly because of the Qionghua tree as a shield.
But there is no obstacle for the female family members to see the Huxin Pavilion, because after all, the female family members are sitting under the Qionghua tree.
