The strongest peasant girl in Xiuse Jinyuan

Chapter 714 The Son-in-Law Banquet (1)
Seven-step Heartbroken Snake—everyone in the banquet heard this name, and their faces changed drastically in an instant.

The seven-step heart-broken snake is the most poisonous thing. It is extremely poisonous and overbearing. If you are bitten by this snake, if you don't detoxify it in time, you will die of heartbroken stomach and rot within just one stick of incense. The name of the poisonous heartbroken in the first seven steps.

Compared with the high position of the son-in-law, the wealth and glory of a lifetime is more important than one's own life.

Shangguan Yu'er glanced away from the corner of her eye, and saw the people who were about to step forward to try just now. At this moment, all of them turned pale and retreated. She raised the corners of her lips and smiled coldly.

"If you can take out this princess's beloved hairpin from the poisonous snake's nest, you can continue to pass the second level."

There was a pause in the words, Shangguan Yu'er turned her eyes, looked at the four with a smile, changed to a questioning tone, and said: "Everyone here, who is willing to go forward and have a try."

She scanned the crowd, and finally turned her gaze to Gu Xizhao, staring at Gu Xizhao.

With a smile in his eyes, Gu Xizhao met Shangguan Yu'er's eyes, and his eyes intertwined. Then, he stood up, waved the jade bone fan in his hand suavely, and said coquettishly: "My lord is willing to give it a try. "

After speaking, he has already taken a step.

Seeing that his youngest son had already stood up, Gu Xiang felt anxious and hurriedly said, "Zhaoer..."

Hearing his father calling him, Gu Xizhao stopped his pace, turned around leisurely, looked at Gu Xiang with a smile on his face, and said with a casual smile as always: "Father, don't worry, your son is very lucky for me. It's just a seven-step heartbroken snake, it'll be fine, eh."

Seeing Gu Xizhao standing up, Shangguan Yuer's eyes flashed tenderness.

Gu Xizhao signaled Gu Xiang to rest assured, looked sideways, and happened to meet Shangguan Yu'er's eyes, the two eyes crossed in the air, looked at each other and smiled, their hearts were connected, and no words were needed.

Then, Gu Xizhao bowed to Emperor Chong, Empress Fan, and Empress Dowager Yide who were seated, and walked to the center of the banquet.

"Princess Mingyu is amazingly talented. In order to marry the princess, a few seven-step heartbroken snakes are nothing to be afraid of. This king is also willing to give it a try." Hui Wang Lingye straightened his black robe, smiled, and stood gracefully. get up.

When Emperor Chong saw King Hui get up from the banquet, he looked sideways at him, a pair of deep and cold eyes rarely showed a hint of admiration.

Fan Zhen sat upright.

When he saw Gu Xizhao and Ling Ye got up, he couldn't bear it any longer and walked out of the banquet.

"Princess Mingyu's reputation has spread far and wide. I have admired Princess Mingyu for a long time. Today, the princess is running for a son-in-law. I am willing to give it a try." After Fan Zhen said some courteous words, she walked towards the center of the banquet.

The other unmarried children of the aristocratic family heard that the wooden box contained a seven-step heartbroken snake. At this moment, they all lowered their heads and did not dare to look at the center of the banquet. Even the crown prince Ling Yu frowned and sat firmly. own position.

Seeing that Ling Yu was sitting as firmly as Mount Tai, Fan Hou had no intention of getting up at all, so he frowned, his face extremely gloomy.

Does the prince know that after marrying the princess of Mo country, with the support of Mo country, it will be much easier for him to ascend to the throne of Ninth Five Supreme in the future.

The emperor always favored King Hui, and King Hui was in charge of the imperial army. This time, if King Hui were to marry Princess Mo, the position of the crown prince would definitely be shaken.

No, she absolutely does not allow anyone to threaten the crown prince's position.

After some thoughts, Queen Fan clenched her fists under the phoenix robe, and she gritted her teeth and stared at Prince Ling Yu, with a look of resentment that iron could not be made into steel between her brows.

"Prince, Princess Mingyu is beautiful and dignified, virtuous and generous, is she the right candidate for the crown princess?"

Fan Hou's words reached Ling Yu's ears, and Ling Yu followed the sound and looked at the seat.

He glanced sideways, and happened to meet the eyes of Empress Shang Fan, seeing the anger in her eyes clearly.

The queen mother was angry.

Ling Yu was startled, hesitated for a moment, and had to stand up slowly.

He flicked his sleeves and pointed at Shangguan Liting who was opposite, Shangguan Yu'er bowed his hands, and said with a smile: "Princess Mingyu is both talented and beautiful. I have admired her talent for a long time, and I am willing to give it a try." The words were humble and polite.

Although he did a good job of doing a set of movements and hid his fear of snakes very well, but just now, the faint hesitation on his brows could not escape the eyes of Emperor Chong.

Emperor Chong stared at Prince Ling Yu with blank eyes, followed his movement, and saw him walking slowly towards the center of the banquet, frowned slightly, and a hint of dissatisfaction slipped through his deep eyes.

Not long after, there were four people standing in the center of the banquet.

Gu Xizhao, Fan Zhen, Hui Wang Ling Ye, Crown Prince Ling Yu.

Wei Changqu was leaning on the chair behind him, holding a cup of warm tea in his slender right hand, sipping it leisurely.

She turned her eyes slightly, and glanced at Fan Zhen indistinctly, with a slight twitch at the corner of her mouth.

"Ling Jing, are you sure that bastard is dead?"

Wei Changqu moved the teacup from between his lips, lowered his voice, and asked Ling Jing in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them.

Seeing Wei Changju questioning herself, Ling Jing turned her handsome face sideways, staring intently at her small face the size of a palm.

She twitched the corners of her lips lightly, and said calmly, "Qi'er, are you doubting your master's ability?"

Feeling Ling Jing's staring gaze, Wei Changjue's breathing was slightly stagnant, he blinked his eyes quickly, staggered his gaze, and changed the subject: "That bastard is really shameless, he is neither male nor female, and he still wants to run for office Yu'er's son-in-law."

Seeing that Wei Changju turned his eyes, Ling Jing staggered his gaze, and turned his face sideways.

"I guess it's the end of the road."

"Huh?" Wei Changjue said "Huh" softly, with doubts in his tone.

Ling Jing glanced at her with a smile, said in a calm voice, very patiently: "Qi'er, last time at the wine competition, you and the third son jointly stole 15 taels of silver from Fan Zhen, do you still remember?"

"I remember." Wei Changqu nodded.

Naturally, she would not forget such an exciting event. However, she and the third son stole 15 taels of silver from Fan Zhen. He also participated in this matter, okay?

Ling Jing saw that Wei Changyu nodded, and continued to whisper: "Some time ago, the Lord of Guye City ordered that the Fan family's caravans were not allowed to approach Guye City any more, and all the shops of the Fan family in Guye City were also ordered to close down. , all the servants of the Fan family were expelled from Guye City. It is estimated that the Fan family shop has too many goods hoarded, the supply exceeds the demand, and you and the third son designed to deceive 15 taels. Now, I am afraid that the cash flow has become a problem. question……"

When Ling Jing said this, Wei Changjue already understood the general meaning.

"That's why Fan Zhen set his mind on Yu'er. He wants to use the strength of Mo country to consolidate the position of Fan family's Liang country."
