Whose little lady is so crazy?

Chapter 297 Bet
Princess Fenglin wanted to reach out and pull her son to sit down, but it was too late because everyone's eyes were focused on this side.

Princess Fenglin, who had always been casual in her behavior, felt embarrassed for the first time in her life. But things had come to this point, and she seemed to have no better choice than to sit there pretending to be calm.

Get up and leave? Scold her son? Forget it. As his mother, I should endure whatever he is about to face with him.

Lord Mu looked at his son in confusion, and couldn't think of a suitable reason to explain his son's rash behavior.

However, he was much calmer than the princess and quickly calmed down. He knew that his son must have his reasons for doing so.

The people standing in front also didn't expect that someone would actually believe it.

Especially Lord Wei himself. This prince has good character, but even if his father has a good relationship with him, he would not stand up to support him. Even if he wants to support him, it should be his father, Lord Mu, right?

Mu Rongjing, Master Mu?
Hong Xiaoduo arrived at the front yard quite late and sat directly in the back. After arriving, she did not look carefully at the guests. She ate snacks while looking at Kaiyang. It was not until Minister Gu started to stir up trouble that her attention was drawn to that person.

She felt that the voice just now was familiar, and when she looked over, she realized that it was someone she knew.

But, he just called himself the prince?

Murong Jing knew that he had attracted everyone's attention, but he only looked at the person in front of him. When their eyes met, they saw the faint smile on each other's faces, and they tacitly understood each other and did not say hello.

"Prince Mu, even the man from the Imperial Observatory can't do something like identifying blood relatives, so how could this little girl possibly do it? Lord Wei must be old and could be deceived." Gu Liu got a signal from his father and stood up and said loudly.

"Don't be rude, you bastard, Lord Wei. My young son offended you with his careless words. Please don't take it to heart." Minister Gu immediately said to Lord Wei without any sincerity.

Lord Wei glanced at the father and son and was too lazy to respond.

The guests around were whispering to each other, and many of them nodded. They knew that Gu Liu was not a good person, but what he said just now made sense.

The director of the Imperial Observatory knew everything about astronomy and geography, could predict wind and rain, and was familiar with the customs of all ethnic groups in different places, as well as the folk skills and secret arts. He was already the most capable person, but he didn't even know how to identify blood relatives.

Lord Wei said that this young girl who could be his granddaughter knew such a secret skill, and he even respectfully called her a master?
If the master that Lord Wei was talking about was an old Taoist priest with an immortal demeanor, or a high monk, or even an old man who was nearly a hundred years old, then perhaps everyone would still believe him a little.

What's wrong with Lord Wei? This shouldn't happen! Is he getting confused because of his age?
Or was it because of the matter involving his only grandson, that he lost his reason and judgment?

"Sixth Master Gu, Lord Wei just said that there is nothing strange in the world. Just because you haven't seen, heard, understood or known something doesn't necessarily mean it doesn't exist.

In fact, whether this expert knows the secret technique to identify blood relatives, if we ask her to verify it on the spot, wouldn’t we know whether it is true or not?

This expert lady, I wonder if we can have the honor to see the secret technique?" Mu Rongjing said, turning his gaze back to Hong Xiaoduo and asked.

He didn't know whether Hong Xiaoduo really knew some secret technique to identify blood relatives, but he knew that she was reliable, not to mention Lord Wei.

Since Lord Wei dared to say that, Hong Xiaoduo stood there calmly and without fear, which only proved one thing, that they were fully confident in dealing with this matter.

But, for some reason, when he said the word "expert" just now, he really felt like laughing.

"Master Mu, in this situation, it seems that I have no choice. If I don't do it in public, you will say that I am a charlatan. I don't care, but it is not appropriate to cause Lord Wei to be said to be old and deceived. However, when I perform this secret technique, I will be very sad, so I can't do it in vain.

Lord Gu, this incident today was caused by you, so I agreed to use the secret technique in public, mainly because of you. How about this, how about we make a bet?
If it is verified later that I do have the ability to identify blood relatives, Lord Gu, how about you kowtow three times to Lord Wei's family in public as a token of apology.

After all, this should have been a very touching and heartwarming family reunion scene, but it became like this because of you, Lord Gu.

Of course, if the result of my verification does not convince you, I lose. Lord Gu, no matter how you want to punish me, I will accept it. Although I am not a man who can stand on my own feet, I will keep my promise. "Hong Xiaoduo said to Minister Gu with a smile, with her hands behind her back.

"Father, this girl is so arrogant and rude." Gu Liu got angry when he heard it.

His father was a minister of the second rank. If he lost the bet, he had to kowtow to the Wei family in public as an apology. Three times?

Even if his father would not lose, he could not bear to hear such a bet.

Minister Gu ignored his son. Although he was also very annoyed when he heard about the bet, he changed his mind and thought, this little girl dared to say that. Could it be that she was not sure that she could beat him?
But she wanted to use this bet to make him back down?

Haha, little girl, you are still too naive to compete with me.

"My dear young lady, I accept your bet." Just as Minister Gu said this, his son said, "No, father, this is unfair. You are a minister of the second rank, and she is just an unknown little liar. How can she compare with you?
If she loses, let Lord Wei kowtow to you three times in public."

Hong Xiaoduo was about to say that if you can't afford it, then don't gamble, but Lord Wei beside him also spoke up and said in a deep voice: "Okay, let's do as Sixth Master Gu said. If she loses, I will kowtow three times to Lord Gu in public."

After hearing his words, no one in the Wei family showed any worry or anxiety. Things had developed to this point, and there was no point in worrying about other things. The family just had to face it calmly. What's more, they believed in Hong Xiaoduo.

Hong Xiaoduo was very pleased with the reactions of the Wei family members. Just for this trust, she was going to teach Minister Gu a lesson today.

"Grandma, father, mother, you don't have to worry. Mom is very strong and she won't lose." Kaiyang whispered to comfort them.

"Master Wei, forget it."

"Lord Gu, please let it go for the sake of being officials in the same dynasty." The guests around were furious and started to speak up to persuade others.

Otherwise, how will it end?
Lord Wei smiled and signaled everyone not to worry, saying he understood.

Lord Gu smiled and said, "I didn't want to do this either. It was the young lady Lord Wei mentioned who insisted on making such a bet!"

His words caused the guests around him to roll their eyes. Of course, some of the rolls were directed at Hong Xiaoduo.

This young and ignorant charlatan didn't suffer any loss if he lost the bet, so he just walked away. However, he implicated Lord Wei, who not only lost face, but also became a laughing stock in the capital.

Besides, Eunuch Fu is still here. He will go back and learn from the emperor. I don’t know if he can continue to be the second-rank minister.

Even if Eunuch Fu was not here at the moment, the emperor would still hear the rumors later, but the effect would definitely be different if Eunuch Fu told the emperor what he saw with his own eyes and heard with his own ears!
Looking at the ugly appearance of Minister Gu and his son, Hong Xiaoduo spoke again...

Thank you dear Shen Mo——bB for the monthly ticket (`)
