BXBX NOVEL Chapter 83: gossip
Because the first emperor liked beautiful women, the number of princes under his knees is also the most among the emperors who founded the country in Daxia. Not counting those who died young, there were nearly twenty adult princes.
And it is conceivable how fierce these princes compete for the reserve when they grow up.
As the champion of the last contest for reserve, the first emperor seemed to think that this was quite normal, so he never appointed a prince and let them fight casually.
And this directly led to the death of a group of outstanding and capable princes fighting each other. It wasn\'t until the first emperor was about to die that he suddenly realized that his sons were running out!
So the honest and simple Jing and Emperor stood out. There was no way, the quality of the remaining few princes was too poor, so they had to be taller than the dwarfs.
So many people think that Jing and Di are definitely the first ones who deserve to pick up leaks, and some people think that Jing and Di look honest and honest, but in fact they have deeper thoughts than anyone else. After the mantis catches the cicada, the oriole is used to the extreme.
Several people\'s eyes lit up when they saw Shen Mingjiao, and one of the men with flirtatious eyebrows stared straight at Shen Mingjiao, the evil in his eyes was not concealed.
"What a beautiful beauty!"
He is the king of Chu, the only son who inherited the good looks of the late emperor, but the late emperor except for this shortcoming. The rest of the talents and strategies are all good. However, the king of Chu avoided these advantages very precisely, except for being lustful, he was still lustful.
As soon as the words were finished, one arm suddenly felt pain. King Chu turned his head angrily, and met Feng Lisheng\'s cold eyes like blades. He was so frightened that he shrank his neck embarrassingly.
Princess Yu stepped forward and greeted warmly: "Hi, my little uncles!"
"Why did you come back so early, is the previous ceremony over..."
Prince Huai, who had the mildest personality, replied: "It\'s not over yet, Brother Huang asked us to come and entertain the officials from the court and China who came to the banquet..."
Shen Mingjiao\'s eyes could not help looking at King Yu who was standing on the side with his head slightly lowered. He was also wearing a vermilion python robe, not only did he not show royal nobility, but it seemed that his whole body was completely suppressed by the clothes.
Compared with the other princes, his appearance is too ordinary. Among the princes of the royal family, especially the first emperor\'s class, this can definitely be called an outlier.
Why? Because it is said that the first emperor was handsome, coupled with his good looks, it would be difficult for the child he gave birth to be good-looking or not, even the most inconspicuous king of Chu had a romantic and good-looking appearance.
The birth of King Yu was just an accident, and the story is also very old-fashioned. It is said that when the first emperor was drunk in the palace, he was in a shambles, and he just dragged a maid over to favor him.
When I woke up the next day and saw the appearance of the maid, I was so disgusted that I didn\'t eat for several days, feeling deeply that I was defiled.
Just in case, I directly ordered the nun who is specialized in this way to rub the back waist of the palace lady for a long while, and then the water flowed out.
Unfortunately, the court lady finally got it.
After King Yu was born, he was not only ordinary-looking, but also dumbfounded. The first emperor naturally disliked him in every possible way.
When they were talking about marriage, they directly chose a daughter of the seventh-rank county magistrate for him.
But who would have thought that such a cowardly and transparent person who was almost ignored by others would force the palace to rebel and almost bloodbathed the entire palace.
It can only be said that people should not be judged by their appearance!
Perhaps Shen Mingjiao\'s eyes lingered for a while, the downcast King Yu quietly raised his head, saw Shen Mingjiao\'s face, he was stunned, and then quickly lowered his eyes.
Princess Yu gave him a disgusted look, obviously feeling that he was very ashamed.
Feng Lisheng stepped forward to block everyone\'s sight, and said in a low voice: "It\'s almost time, brothers and sisters, go to the front to entertain the guests."
After a few people left, Princess Yu came over with a smile: "I really can\'t see that Xiao Shiliu cares so much about you!"
"But it\'s no wonder, the siblings look like this, even a man can\'t help watching it..."
Shen Mingjiao still didn\'t want to talk to the other party, Princess Yu didn\'t care, and continued to chatter on her own.
Just like that all the way to the lounge where the female relatives were, Shen Mingjiao took a look and saw Mrs. Tong sitting on the side, and Tong Yuyao who was smiling sweetly, but she didn\'t see Cui Lingling.
And Gu Danxue also did not come. She was not familiar with the ladies in the hall, so she decided to find a place to sit quietly. Beside him is a very eloquent Princess Yu.
Princess Yu followed her gaze, then lowered her voice and gossiped:
"That\'s a girl from Brother Tong\'s hometown. Let me tell you, I heard that he will get married soon?"
"Do you know who she is going to marry? It\'s the little prince of the Duke of Lu who became a scholar at ten years old.
Speaking of this, she realized something was wrong no matter how careless she was, and hurriedly stopped talking. Instead, continue to gossip about the marriage of the two families:
"I heard that the young master has been traveling abroad, seeing that he has reached the age of marriage, but he has been refusing to come back. It was Mrs. Lu Guogong who pretended to be sick to trick him back..."
Shen Mingjiao listened quietly, but what she was thinking in her heart was that it seemed that it was not far from Cui Lingling\'s complete idea of getting rid of the Tong family.
At this moment, the hall was silent for a moment, and then the whispering of several noble ladies around was heard in a low voice.
"How dare she come here..."
"If I were her, I would have died of embarrassment..."
"Shh, you forgot her relationship with Su Qing..."
Shen Mingjiao followed everyone\'s line of sight, and saw that it was Xu Ningyue walking in.
It\'s just... Different from the previous arrogance and domineering, at this time, she has a pale face, gloomy eyes, and is wearing a plain collared gown. She doesn\'t seem to be attending a wedding, but rather a funeral.
She was secretly guessing what happened to Xu Ningyue? Princess Yu, a gossip lover, started broadcasting at the right time.
Although Princess Yu has just returned to Beijing for a few days, she knows all about the secrets of various wealthy families in the capital, down to weddings and funerals.
"This matter has to start from the old lady\'s birthday banquet in the Yasukuni mansion..."
Shen Mingjiao interrupted her with a wave of her hand, and finally said: "Okay, I was there that day, so you can directly talk about Xu Ningyue!"
Princess Yu was obviously very happy when she heard the words: "My siblings are finally willing to talk to me!"
Shen Mingjiao said helplessly: "Then there is no way, even if I ignore it, Seventh Sister-in-law will not leave!"
Anyway, when the wedding is over, the vassal kings should return to their fiefs.
Seeing Shen Mingjiao\'s cooperation, Princess Yu spoke even more vigorously:
"Although the Yasukuni government told the wives who were present at the time not to spread the matter to the outside world, how can this kind of matter be covered up! In less than half a day, the scandal of Pei Ning\'s absurd relationship with the man at the grandmother\'s birthday banquet spread all over the world. The upper circles in Beijing..."
"Peining\'s reputation has plummeted, and those wives who wanted to marry him are secretly glad, and guess what happened in the end..."
Shen Mingjiao asked cooperatively: "What\'s wrong?"
