"Literary ball or martial arts ball?"
Wei Jiulang was the first to react, and he became a little angry.
He was actually obsessed with the son of his enemy.
"Hmph! Sure enough, he is just like his mother-in-law, a charming vixen!"
In shame and anger, his blood surged, and Wei Jiulang was impulsive for a moment.
Not only did he propose a civil and military fight against the plan, but he also deliberately provoked the generals to kill him, "The Ninth Prince is noble and such a handsome man, so he must be more willing to play tricks that men should do."
"Let's just have a fight, okay?"
Gu Qingcheng was very impressed and nodded, as if to say: Your Highness is such a person.
She said casually: "Then let's play martial arts!"
Huo Wuniang was really anxious this time. She didn't care about propriety and blurted out, "Jiulang!"
Before Huo Wuniang could say the word "no", Wei Jiulang glanced at her deliberately.
Wei Jiulang continued to provoke him angrily, "Your Highness, don't agree in a hurry. You should ask your fiancée first."
His words were quite vicious, and in a joking tone, he said "facts" that ordinary men could not bear.
Wei Jiulang almost pointed at Gu Qingcheng's nose and said: You, you have always relied on women. Now that you have to make a decision, shouldn't you also listen to the opinions of your women?
They are all rebellious teenagers in their teens, all of them are hot-blooded and can't stand anger. Wei Jiulang uses himself to save others and thinks he can't stand such words.
Sure enough, Gu Qingcheng saw a flash of shame and anger in his eyes, and he said without hesitation, "No need! I make the decision in my affairs!"
Wei Jiulang was secretly delighted: Hey! Done!
Although the other noble disciples also felt that it was going well, they still felt a little uneasy.
They looked left and right, exchanging glances with each other——
"There's no need to play martial arts!"
"Yes, yes! He is His Majesty's beloved son after all!"
"Yes, when playing martial arts, there is a gentleman's agreement of "life or death"! "
"...What is Wei Jiu doing? Didn't he just give Qingcheng some color as promised?"
"He shouldn't have been allowed to come forward! I see, he did succeed in irritating the Ninth Prince, but he himself was very angry."
Everyone's eyes were flying wildly, and after a lot of winking, they actually flinched a little.
However, Wei Jiulang was secretly proud that in order to prevent Huo Wuniang's dissuasion and to prevent Gu Qingcheng from retreating, he took the initiative to shout loudly and called other noble ladies and gentlemen who came to play polo as witnesses.
Playing martial arts, in the final analysis, is just playing polo.
It’s not about going into the ring and fighting a life and death situation.
Although there is also an unspoken rule of "no matter life or death", there is still a "hidden" word in the unspoken rule, which cannot be stated openly.
Not to mention signing any life or death certificate.
However, they are all people in the powerful circles in Beijing, and they are very particular about keeping their word.
As long as they make an agreement in public and high-five each other, it's like signing a life-and-death certificate in disguise.
On the polo field, no matter whether you are injured or killed, you will not regret it, let alone look for it!
Otherwise, the family's reputation will be ruined.
This is the Qing Dynasty's philosophy of respecting the strong and making a promise worth a thousand pieces of gold!
Wei Jiulang loudly announced his agreement to play martial arts with the Ninth Prince. Regardless of everyone's surprise and gasp after hearing the news, he stretched out a hand and came to Gu Qingcheng.
"Your Highness, please!"
Gu Qingcheng also stretched out a slender, white hand.
Bang bang bang!
Under Huo Wuniang's anxious and worried eyes, Gu Qingcheng high-fived Wei Jiulang three times.
Appointment, done!
Huo Wuniang closed her eyes hard, now she was forced to go up the mountain. All we can do is try our best.
She made up her mind to protect Kuro on the court later.
Even if he is injured, he will never let Kurang make the slightest mistake.
As for whether this move will make Jiuro
Huo Wuniang couldn't care less whether Jiulang would be unhappy about being ridiculed.
"Haha! Okay! His Highness the Ninth Prince is indeed His Majesty's beloved son, a handsome young man. If nothing else, his blood and courage alone convinced us."
When Wei Jiulang saw that he was about to succeed, his eyes and face were filled with a proud smile.
Gu Qingcheng waved his hand, "I can't do it! I'm not in good health. I just ride horses and play ball."
Wei Jiulang's laughter paused. What does Qingcheng mean?
Why do you suddenly depreciate yourself?
Did "he" regret it?
In order to drag Gu Qingcheng onto the court, Wei Jiulang smiled and said something against his will, "Your Highness is humble!"
After complimenting him, Wei Jiulang did not forget to remind him, "We have just high-fived each other and made an alliance. His Highness must have a plan in mind. By saying this, do you want me to relax my vigilance?"
"Hahaha, it is said that His Highness the Ninth Prince is not good at military affairs, but I see that you are quite skillful in using this "art of war". "
However, Gu Qingcheng still waved his hand, "It's not modesty! I am indeed familiar with the art of war, but it's more about talking on paper."
"My prince is determined to practice martial arts, but his talent is insufficient. As for polo, he can only play it, but he is not up to the level of competing with others."
Wei Jiulang's wizened smile could hardly be maintained.
He wanted to grab Gu Qingcheng's clothes and ask: Ma De, what do you mean?
I couldn't bear the excitement just now, and you were the one who high-fived me!
You are the one who is scared now!
Do you want to play polo or not?
However, Wei Jiulang did not dare to ask this question easily.
He was afraid that if he said it, the Ninth Prince would climb down the pole, so he agreed immediately.
Then wouldn't the whole day of jumping up and down just now be in vain?
It is true that if the Ninth Prince breaks the contract, he will be ridiculed and criticized by everyone.
But for now, the Ninth Prince has become the center of rumors.
There are too many lice and I am not afraid of itching!
Furthermore, rumors and the like have no big effect on real noble people.
The Ninth Prince is deeply favored by the Holy Spirit, his marriage has been decided, and he has not yet entered the court to serve as an official.
Not to mention it was just a rumor in the market, even if he really made some mistakes and was impeached by the censor, it would have no impact.
Demotion and fine?
He has no errand and no salary.
Grounded?
He originally lived in the palace and rarely went out in the early years.
With his weakling appearance, he probably prefers to rest at home.
And besides these, what else can be punished?
I am His Majesty’s beloved son.
It is estimated that as long as it is not a serious crime of treason, His Majesty will not do anything to him!
On the contrary, Wei Jiulang, who caused such a scene today, will once again drag himself and the entire Wei family into a storm of public opinion.
The old story between Concubine Dong Gui and her ex-husband will also be talked about over and over again!
This is the past that the Wei family least wants to face.
"Hahaha!"
Wei Jiulang didn't dare to say anything more, so he could only smile and said, "Your Highness is so humble!"
Gu Qingcheng was still ungrateful and glanced at Wei Jiulang disdainfully, "Is there something wrong with your brain?"
"My Highness has already said that I am not being modest!"
Wei Jiulang: ...Knock on your mother! What do you want?
Wei Jiulang himself didn't realize that the initiative between him and Gu Qingcheng had fallen into Gu Qingcheng's hands.
Gu Qingcheng still looked weak and chirping, but as steady as an old dog, ah, no, he was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai.
As for Wei Jiulang, he anxiously became a clown whose emotions were affected by Gu Qingcheng.
"Your Highness, Ninth Prince, what exactly do you mean?"
Wei Jiulang couldn't bear it anymore, gritted his teeth and spoke word by word.
you special
Should I still fight meow?
If you're a man, be happy!
"It's no fun! Just tell the truth before the game!"
Gu Qingcheng still looked calm and relaxed. She casually dealt with Wei Jiulang for a few words, and then said to Huo Wuniang, "Wuniang, you have to protect me when we go to the court later!"
Huo Wuniang seemed to understand what Gu Qingcheng meant. She glanced at Wei Jiulang, who had a livid face, and was about to say "ok".
Wei Jiulang seemed to have caught Gu Qingcheng's sore spot, pretending to be surprised, "What? Your Highness, Ninth Prince, do you want your fiancée to protect you?"
Isn't this admitting in public that he is a weakling and needs a woman to protect him?
"That's right! If my fiancée doesn't protect me, why should I protect you? I tell you! No way! Don't even think about it!"
Gu Qingcheng was both proud and willful.
Wei Jiulang's face was stiff. He wanted to roar at the Ninth Prince: When will I let your fiancée protect me?
I'm not you!
I'm not that weak!
Playing polo requires a woman to protect you!
Wei Jiulang complained crazily in his heart, and his face showed a bit of contempt and disdain.
In fact, not only him, but also his companions, as well as the boys and girls who came to watch the fun, all looked surprised——
The Ninth Prince actually admitted it like that.
He is really relying on women and eating soft food!
Huo Wuniang felt everyone's gazes and seemed to hear their whispers.
She felt a little uncomfortable, and she was even more worried that the Ninth Prince would not be able to bear such strange treatment.
She subconsciously went to look after Qingcheng.
But Gu Qingcheng seemed to have discovered some secret. She pointed at Wei Jiulang's face and shouted excitedly to Huo Wuniang: "Wuniang! Look! He is jealous! Haha, he is jealous of me!"
Wei Jiulang almost choked to death on his own saliva.
He had a question mark on his face and pointed a finger at himself: Am I jealous of you? I, I’m jealous of a hammer!
Wei Jiulang laughed angrily, "Your Highness is joking, why am I jealous of you? Jealous that you have the protection of your fiancée?"
You can't blame him for being disrespectful to the prince, he really couldn't help it!
"Yes! You are just jealous that I have a fiancée! My fiancée is still so beautiful and powerful!"
Gu Qingcheng looked like "You're right."
She nodded vigorously, her beautiful face filled with pride and complacency, "The best thing is, she is willing to protect me!"
"She's not afraid of martial arts at all, and she's willing to charge into battle for me!"
"I believe that my fifth wife can defeat a thousand armies with one against ten!"
Huo Wuniang: ...I feel a little embarrassed to be praised.
However, after listening to Gu Qingcheng's words, Huo Wuniang completely understood the other person's intentions.
The Ninth Prince didn't care at all about "women are strong and men are weak".
"He" doesn't care about the rumors outside about those who are taking advantage of others and knocking on doors.
What's more, the Ninth Prince felt honored that he had his fiancée to protect him.
"...Your fiancée fights for you, what are you doing?"
Wei Jiulang felt that his outlook on life had been impacted.
After twenty years of living, this is probably the first time he has encountered someone who relies on a woman and is so confident. Oh no, he is proud of this!
Is this, is this still a man?
