Lu Xinghe heard that Wu Yong was joking and did not take his words to heart.
"The imperial examination is coming soon. When she and I get married, I'm afraid there won't be many opportunities like this in the future."
Wu Yong wiped away the smile on his face and looked at Chu Yue in the distance who was pulled to the seat by Gu Wushuang.
"It doesn't matter, as long as she lives a good life, I don't care." He looked at Lu Xinghe with a serious expression, "But if you betray her, I won't let you go easily again."
Lu Xinghe chuckled twice and reached out to pat his shoulder.
"Don't worry, you won't have this opportunity." After he finished speaking, he walked in the direction he came from just now. "There are a few people here who we can chat with. Do you want to come with us?"
Wu Yong followed his footsteps.
"my pleasure."
…
Chu Yue and Gu Wushuang went to a gathering place where all the little sisters gathered. She had the status of a princess, and she had previously been known to only poison people in the palace, so no one dared to provoke her easily.
She sat under the flower tree, drinking fruit wine and eating cakes, and occasionally chatting with Princess Wushuang beside her, which was very comfortable.
The banquets held in Prince Su's Mansion are quite particular, and Baiyuan Garden's pastries have become famous in Beijing recently. The pastries we are eating now were ordered by Cui Qingya from Baiyuan Garden and delivered early this morning.
"Princess Wushuang doesn't seem to be in a good mood."
Chu Yue said quietly while watching the performance in the field.
Gu Wushuang sighed and supported his chin with his hands.
"How can I be in a good mood? I heard that my father planted this begonia garden for my mother. Now that my mother is not here, the garden is busy and has not stopped for a year."
Chu Yue sat in her seat, tilted her head and looked in her direction.
"Since you can't change it, why bother worrying about the past?"
Gu Wushuang smiled and moved closer to Chu Yue.
"Sister He Yue, have you ever had any troubles?"
Chu Yue thought for a while, nodded and said, "Human beings are not grass and trees. It is normal to have troubles. The key is how to resolve them."
"How did Sister Heyue solve the problem?" Gu Wushuang looked at her curiously.
"Just make peace with yourself." Chu Yue looked at the beautiful singing and dancing under the flower trees and said softly, "Actually, my experience along the way has not been smooth, and it has even been much more difficult than yours. No. What about reconciliation? Is it possible to torture yourself by living in the past?"
Whether it was the memory of her previous life or the experience of this life, she had indeed suffered a lot.
Gu Wushuang glanced at her, then stared thoughtfully at the wine glass in his hand, murmuring.
"Make peace with yourself..."
At this moment, Yuan Xueer looked at Gu Wushuang and Chu Yue.
"Princess Wushuang and Princess He Yue, now that everyone in the audience has performed their talents, there are only two princesses left."
Gu Wushuang looked at everyone with a smile.
"It's not like you don't know me. Apart from singing a few songs, I can't do anything else. In the previous banquets, the few songs I knew were all tricked out by you. I'm really at my wits' end and can't do anything."
Another young lady looked at Chu Yue with a charming expression.
"What about Princess He Yue? Don't say like you did at the palace banquet that you only know how to poison. We won't listen to you."
Chu Yue scratched her head in embarrassment.
"I really don't know how to do this talent."
Jiang Ruo, the daughter of the Minister of Rites, looked at Chu Yue with a slight smile and said in a soft voice, "It's okay. In fact, we are only half-experienced, just having fun."
Gu Wushuang tugged on Chu Yue's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Sister Heyue, you are from the countryside, you know how to sing folk songs, right? Just sing a few lines casually and perfunctorily."
Chu Yue pursed her lips and replied in a low voice, "My singing will kill me."
She knew her own disadvantages. She had a naturally imperfect voice. If she really sang, she would definitely become the laughing stock of the entire capital tomorrow.
Gu Wushuang raised his eyebrows.
"What should we do?"
Chu Yue exhaled and stood up.
"Ladies, I really have no talent. If you don't mind, I'll show you a swordsmanship."
She doesn't know how to do anything else. Over the years, she and Kuroki have learned some sleight-of-hand kung fu. Although it's just a sleight of hand, she can still perform a complete swordsmanship.
Seeing this, Gu Wushuang quickly ordered the servants beside him to prepare their swords.
The next moment, Chu Yue had a light long sword in her hand, and Jiang Ruoqian volunteered to play the piano for her to enhance the atmosphere.
As the music sounded, Chu Yue held a long sword and danced under the crabapple tree, sometimes fast and sometimes slowly.
The girl wore a flowing peacock green dress, which made her figure even lighter and more agile.
The tip of the sword flew like a rabbit in flight, and the sword's light shone, stirring up brilliant rays of light that bloomed under the blossoming crabapple trees.
Gorgeous!
Chu Yue's swordsmanship may be far behind that of kendo masters, but for these weak ladies in the capital, he is considered to be an outstanding figure, leaving the ladies present dumbfounded.
The originally bustling Haitang Garden was so quiet that you could hear needles drop because of Chu Yue's sword dance.
Lu Xinghe looked at the elegant figure in the distance, and then at the crazy-looking men beside him. He felt a vague possessive desire in his heart, wishing he could drag Chu Yue home right now and hide her.
Wu Yong looked at Chu Yue's figure, surprise flashing across his face.
It seemed that Chu Yue could dance a sword.
As soon as the song was over, thunderous applause erupted throughout the Begonia Garden.
"well!"
At this moment, laughter came from the entrance of Haitang Garden.
Gu Jinghe took long strides and led a group of people into Begonia Garden.
"I really didn't expect to see such a wonderful sword dance when I came to Haitang Garden this time."
When everyone saw the visitor, they knelt down one after another.
"Greetings to Your Majesty."
"Get back on your feet." Gu Jinghe looked at Chu Yue, "Princess Heyue, I exempted you from kneeling before, don't you remember?"
"Remember, it's just that everyone knelt down, and He Yue also knelt down." Chu Yue said with a somewhat embarrassed smile, "In order to defend himself, He Yue learned one or two sword skills from the guards, and practiced embroidering his fists and legs, which made His Majesty and the Queen The empress is laughing."
Qin Feilan pursed her lips and smiled.
"The princess is humble."
At this moment, a figure walked out from behind Gu Jinghe. He was wearing a dark-colored woven gold robe, with deep features, and a calm temperament, but with a hint of terror, making him intimidating.
He looked at Chu Yue meaningfully.
"Father, is this Princess Heyue who you mentioned has made many meritorious deeds?"
"That's right." Gu Jinghe looked at Chu Yue with a smile, "Princess Heyue, this is my other prince, Prince Jing."
Chu Yue looked slightly stunned and hurriedly saluted Gu Jingning.
"He Yue met Prince Jing."
Gu Jingning said quietly, "No courtesy."
He had originally been able to make more money from the previous disaster in Tongzhi County, but unexpectedly, his plan was thwarted by this little woman in front of him.
It’s true that people should not be judged by their appearance.
When Gu Jinghe glanced at Wu Yong, who was tall and handsome in white clothes among the crowd, he seemed to have thought of something and turned to look at Chu Yue with a smile.
"Princess Heyue, I heard that you and General Wu grew up together and were childhood sweethearts. Did you say that you were engaged to be engaged to him before? If that's true, how about I grant you a marriage?"
