Be good, call me uncle

Chapter 264 Are You Afraid?

Even a fool can hear such a straightforward provocation. How did Princess Hexia come to Qingning Palace?If no one caused trouble, would she know that she was going to "perform" in class?Will she come to Qingning Palace out of nowhere?
It's just that there is no point in pursuing this now, because Yu Qinghuan has already fallen into a dilemma - if she really goes to "perform a show", what is the difference between it and raising an actor for fun?If she didn't go, wouldn't she be known as "frail"?There was a difficult problem directed at her from left to right.

Just when everyone was looking forward to Yu Qinghuan's answer, she gently raised her eyes and looked at the bright and moving Princess Hexia in front of her. Yu Qinghuan shook her sleeves: "Then Princess Hexia, what will you do for the diplomatic relations between the two countries? ?”

Princess Hexia was startled, raised her lips and said: "Everyone who comes is a guest. As a guest of Da Qin, do I still have to perform for the master?"

Yu Qinghuan smiled: "Since you are a guest, how can Princess Hexia have the nerve to ask the host to entertain you? Or does the princess feel that Da Qin is not as good as you, Northern Qi, so she must lower her profile and seek favors from Northern Qi? Princess and your envoys, don't you? Isn't it just to promote the development of relations between the two countries that you have traveled thousands of miles to our great Qin Yujing? Why does the princess want to embarrass me, the princess?"

Princess Hexia's smile did not change. Her bright face was as pure and moving as the blue sky on the vast grassland: "They say people in Da Qin are cunning. One idea can be expressed in ten ways. I didn't think so at first, but after seeing After becoming Princess Qi, you know what it means to have sharp teeth and a sharp mouth!"

The Queen Mother remained silent, and the Queen scolded: "Princess Qi, please don't be rude to Princess Hexia! As a royal princess, you are disrespectful to the princess of another country with your open and closed mouths. This is a disgrace to the etiquette country of Great Qin. Why not?" Apologize to Princess Hexia!"

Yu Qinghuan ignored the queen and smiled at Princess Hexia: "You Qi people are really contradictory. On the one hand, you look down on the people of Daqin and think we are weak and cunning. On the other hand, you yearn for the prosperity and civilization we have established. In fact, people are harmonious. Just like flowers, plants and trees, whether they are trees in the Northern Qi Dynasty or trees in the Da Qin Dynasty, they are essentially trees. Just like the princess and I, we both have one mouth and two eyes. It is only because of the different places where we grow that there are slight differences between us. Why should the princess judge me, the prince and concubine of Da Qin, from the perspective of a Northern Qi person?"

Seeing that Yu Qinghuan didn't pay attention to her at all, the queen was so angry that her face was livid. She leaned back on the chair, her eyes burning like fire, bursting out with blazing flames, like a volcano about to erupt, which was already a precursor to the coming rain.

The Queen Mother glanced at her casually and said softly: "It's not that the Ai family favors Concubine Xiao, but that you are really unworthy and can't hold back any emotion. It's no wonder that you have been suppressed for so many years. Queen, if you If you continue to be so incompetent, you might as well abdicate and make way for someone more talented!"

The queen was startled, and she quickly bowed her head and saluted, and whispered: "Mother, I know I was wrong!"

The Queen Mother withdrew her gaze and continued to play the rosary beads in her hand, her eyes filled with darkness.

Bai Yichu slightly pulled Qin Fuzi's sleeve and motioned her to look at the Qin in the middle.

Qin Fuzi immediately understood that at the level of Princess Qi, a qin player could kill people. If she was allowed to play in front of the Northern Qi envoy, wouldn't she lose all her underwear?

Princess Qi was not afraid of embarrassment, and as a wife she could not afford to embarrass others, so she said: "Princess, I want to see a performance. There are many musicians and singers in the palace. Princess Qi is pregnant, so I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for her to perform."

He Xia glanced at Qin Fuzi thoughtfully, and clapped her hands one last time: "Let me just say, why does Princess Qi push the envelope and ramble in all kinds of ways? It turns out that she doesn't dare! It's a pity that Princess Qi has a great reputation, but unexpectedly... Marrying such a princess is really burying him! In this case, Hexia will go back, and there is no point in staying anymore. Hexia hates watching clowns the most!"

These words made everyone change their expressions. No matter whether they liked Yu Qinghuan or not, a foreign princess was so arrogant, which angered them to some extent. They even looked at Princess Hexia with a slightly evil look.

However, Yu Qinghuan was not angry. If she couldn't stand this idleness, then she would be truly laughable.

She lowered her eyes slightly, thinking about Princess Hexia's attitude. If Princess Hexia was interested in Changsun Tao and targeted her, that would not necessarily be true. After all, Changsun Tao returned to the capital after repelling the Northern Qi army ten years ago and did not guard it. In Northern Xinjiang, there is little time and opportunity to contact Princess Hexia.

However, Princess Hexia targeted her so directly. Why?Could it be that he was provoked by someone?
Yu Qinghuan couldn't figure it out, so she let the dog go and didn't think about it anymore. She raised her head and looked at Princess Hexia with clear eyes, and said casually: "Princess Hexia, you really misunderstood me. I was thinking about the princess completely. If I was invited by the princess to perform, and as a courtesy, the princess must also perform in public. If the princess can't compare to me, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the princess?" "What do you mean? Do you think I can't do it?!" Princess Hexia said displeasedly. .

Yu Qinghuan replied unhurriedly: "I do think so. Although Beiqi conquered the world on horseback, the princess is a member of the royal family after all, and she must be a knowledgeable and reasonable person. But judging from the princess's performance just now, even the basic I don’t understand etiquette, so don’t blame me for thinking that the princess is a waste, she only knows how to talk about others, but she can’t do anything else herself.”

"Princess Qi, why don't you come and compete?!" Princess Hexia was immediately aroused to the point of rage, "I will definitely make you lose to the point of being convinced!"

"Okay!" Yu Qinghuan replied without hesitation, "It's settled! Whoever goes back on his word will be a puppy!"

Only then did Princess Hexia realize that she, the person who provoked others, was provoked, and she immediately became angry, but she was too embarrassed to admit that she was a puppy, so she had to hold her nose and admit it!

However, she didn't want to take advantage of Yu Qinghuan, so she made a request: "Since you want to play, let's have fun! How about we stipulate the content of the performance for each other?"

Yu Qinghuan raised her lips: "Then I won't be polite!"

Princess Hexia said: "Please also ask Princess Qi to play a song."

Yu Qinghuan said: "I also invite the princess to dance with the sword."

So the performance project was decided so quickly.

Qinfuzi's vision went dark and he almost lost his balance.

Everyone had their own thoughts, but they didn't show it.

Finally, the Queen Mother spoke: "Meeting foreign envoys is a national event, but since the princess sincerely invites you, Princess Qi, you can go!" She told Jingxin: "Guide the way for Princess Qi and Princess Hexia."

Yu Qinghuan moved to the fighting position with his head held high and left all his wife and concubines in the Qingning Palace.

Walking in the long corridor, the bluestone road was even colder due to the frost, and the entire palace seemed majestic, yet impersonal.

"Princess Hexia is Miss Bai Yichu's friend?" Suddenly, Yu Qinghuan asked. She had no real evidence, everything was just speculation, but other than that, she could not find a better explanation.

"If so, are you afraid?" Princess Hexia suddenly turned around and smiled brightly like Yu Qinghuan.
