After I had a false relationship with the emperor, he

Chapter 168 Gu Shulan

Before entering the door, Wen Hui led a group of aristocratic ladies to welcome him out.

When it comes to hypocritical etiquette, everyone has always been reluctant to be talked about.

Cui Ming thought about it sarcastically, but the smile on her face became more and more intense. She stepped forward to give Wen Hui a peer gift, and then said: "I'm really sorry, I'm late. , let sister Wen and all the sisters and sisters wait for a long time, I will punish myself later."

The women around Wen Hui looked at Cui Ming, and then there was a slight hint of contempt on their faces, Cui Ming pretended not to notice, but still smiled sincerely.

Wen Hui got up and saluted her back, "It's okay, how can I make Sister Cui drink fine, Sister Cui is welcome, please come in quickly.

While talking, Wen Hui dragged her to the arranged seat.

Wen Hui placed a seat next to the main seat next to her, and Cui Ming's eyes flashed. In the past, this seat was always reserved for the daughter of the Minister of War.

Cui Ming didn't refuse, and sat down according to her wishes.

There were many eyes in the hall looking at her with deep meaning, Cui Ming didn't care a bit, and Xiang Yun poured her a cup of tea under the signal of her eyes.

Cui Ming moistened his throat slowly with the teacup, holding this kind of flower viewing feast in summer, coming and going is really tormenting.

Sweat drenched underwear.

No matter what she thought in her heart, she never showed half of her face, that hibiscus face was like wearing a flawless mask, making it impossible to guess what she was thinking.

Cui Ming was not overwhelmed by the title of Seventh Prince and Concubine and became arrogant and complacent, nor was he humbled and cowardly because of everyone's scrutiny.

Seeing that they couldn't see Cui Ming's thoughts, some people inevitably felt bored, and their gazes became less scrutinized.

"I heard that Sister Cui suffered from heatstroke a few days ago, is she feeling better now?" Wen Hui turned to look at Cui Ming and asked with a smile.

"Sister Lao Wen misses you, and she is fine now." Cui Ming nodded, and walked past her porcelain-like face, making people feel like a fairy concubine.

Wen Hui's eyes moved, and he replied a little perfunctorily, "That's good" and turned his eyes away.

However, at this moment, a bitter voice sounded from the hall again, "Yo, you are indeed the person who will be the Seventh Prince's concubine, and this body is becoming more and more delicate."

Sitting next to her, Gu Shulan, the daughter of the Minister of the Ministry of War, spoke with cynicism.

"Sister Gu is right. Originally, I was still bedridden all day long due to the heat. Who would have thought that the disease would be cured after the Holy Majesty bestowed a marriage. After all, it is the royal welfare that protects the courtiers." Cui Ming looked at Gu Shulan said with a light smile, as if she was telling an interesting story.

Gu Shulan was defeated by her, and stomped the teacup on the table angrily. The hall was quiet for a moment because of the commotion here, and then everyone continued to whisper to their familiar girlfriends as if nothing had happened.

Gu Shulan, the daughter of the Minister of War, and Cui Ming have never dealt with each other, and this is almost a well-known fact in the capital.

To be more precise, it was Gu Shulan who unilaterally disliked her, and Cui Ming slandered her expressionlessly.

Every time she met her, she would always say a few sarcasm, as if otherwise, the breath in her heart would not go well.

Everyone took it for granted, and they were also inferior to Gu Shulan's status, so how dare they go up to touch their bad luck.

In the past, there would be three or two courageous people following Gu Shulan to mock Cui Ming, but now that Cui Ming has become the Seventh Prince's Concubine bestowed by the imperial decree, they shrank in the corner and dared not speak.

Gu Shulan glanced calmly at the few people who used to talk behind her before, and snorted ironically.

They are really a group of grasshoppers, half spineless.

As the host, Wen Hui stepped in to avoid the topic with a few words, but Gu Shulan didn't answer her very well, but she didn't open her mouth to find fault with Cui Ming.

Just because she doesn't like Cui Ming doesn't mean she likes Wen Hui.

It's all a ravine, how can there be any difference between high and low?
The people in the capital are the most hypocritical and artificial, unlike in the past in the border towns, everyone is bold and unrestrained.

Cui Ming continued to drink tea leisurely, and what happened just now didn't seem to affect her in the slightest.

She lowered her eyes and looked at the circles of fine lines floating out of the teacup. The grievances between Gu Shulan and her seemed complicated, but it was actually very simple to say.

Gu Shulan is the jewel in the palm of the servant of the Ministry of War. If she likes it, all the men in the capital can marry, but she is not as good as the other noble ladies in the capital. Or the eldest son of the high family, but he wholeheartedly loves the seventh prince.

Gu Shulan thought she covered it up very well, but anyone with a discerning eye could see it.

Gu Shulan grew up in the border city, she has a straightforward and irritable personality, and she doesn't like the fake etiquette of the capital, but since she returned to the capital three years ago, she will appear in all the banquets that the Seventh Prince will participate in.

Cui Ming knew that she liked the Seventh Prince a long time ago.

Some things seem to be untraceable, but in fact there are traces everywhere.

Cui Ming pinched the handkerchief thoughtfully, His Royal Highness should also come today.

Otherwise, Gu Shulan wouldn't have come forward so eagerly.

"Her character is probably like this, but I don't think her appearance is too bad."

But also a poor man.

Qingyu suddenly made a sound, Cui Ming's pupils trembled, she glanced at both sides calmly from the corner of her eye, seeing that the expressions of Wen Hui and Gu Shulan had not changed, she breathed a sigh of relief quietly.

"Don't worry, if they can't hear me, you can talk to me in your heart without saying it." Qingyu continued.

Cui Ming raised his eyebrows, and couldn't help but think that this spirit cultivator is really strange, and it has such abilities.

She said silently, "Can you hear me?"

Qingyu laughed, "Of course."

"How do you know that Gu Shulan is not a bad person?"

Qingyu was silent for a long time before softly saying: "I am the spirit of the jade pendant, so I can naturally see people's faces."

Cui Ming stretched out her finger and unconsciously rubbed the jade pendant hanging around her waist. She didn't know whether she believed it or not, so she said casually, "It's not that important."

If she is a good person, if she really enters the harem in the future with her character, they shouldn't get along so happily. If she is a bad person, she will not be afraid of her.

The minister of the Ministry of War has great power, but he is loyal to the emperor and treats every prince impartially.

Therefore, the Minister of War probably won't let his daughter marry any of the princes until the next crown prince is clear.

As for the future, if the Seventh Prince can ascend the throne smoothly, she will be the first wife of the Seventh Prince, and also the queen of course.

What effect does it have on Gu Shulan whether she enters the palace or not?
It wasn't that she was impatient to deal with her, it was her irascibility that bothered her.
