Rebirth of the Concubine Fenghua

Chapter 312 Can You Choose Right?

Undoubtedly, Xiao Jingxue was the most nervous among the ten people. She hoped that Helian Ao was wrong, but it's too late, and he still hasn't moved, so she couldn't help muttering, what the hell is going on?To choose or not to choose?
Seeing that Helian Ao still had no intention of making a choice, Xiao Jinghan lost his temper and asked, "May I ask when the lord can make a choice, and do you need to think about it for a while?"

"Almost," Helian Ao seemed to have made up his mind, rubbed his hands together, walked to the edge, and said loudly, "The first one."

Everyone craned their necks subconsciously, waiting to see whether he chose the right one or not.

Xiao Jingxue was inexplicably overjoyed, she was ranked sixth, so did the prince choose the wrong one?Great!
Unexpectedly, Helian Ao shook his head, "No." Then he walked to the second one.

not what did you say?Emperor Jingxi breathed a sigh of relief, angry and funny, the eleventh brother was clearly playing with Princess Qingyun, did he think how nervous she was?

Xiao Jingxue was stunned, immediately disappointed, and even more inexplicably angry. She almost stood up just now, thanks to not showing her flaws.

"Nor the second one." This time Helian Ao didn't make a fool of himself and said it directly.

The third, fourth, and fifth were all denied by Helian Ao, and when he came to Xiao Jingxue, a sharp sarcasm flashed in his eyes, and he said slowly, "Is this the sixth—" The ending sound was very long and curling Keep going, intentionally let Xiao Jingxue suffocate on the spot.

It wasn't until everyone's appetite was whetted that Helian Ao smiled complacently, "Xiao Jingxue, don't pretend, it's you."

Xiao Jingxue's face turned pale immediately, unwilling but also helpless, how could the prince choose the right one?Obviously she is dressed the same as the other court ladies, so there should be no flaws!But the lord didn't even think about it, he pointed her out directly and affirmatively. Could it be that he is the prophet?

Xiao Jinghan's expression also became ugly. Just now when Xiao Jingxue went down to prepare, he didn't follow, so he didn't know which one was the one, but Tie Wang was so sure, it shouldn't be wrong, that is to say, in this round of competition, they Lost again?
"Eleventh Brother, are you sure that the sixth one is Princess Qingyun?" Emperor Jingxi was a little worried, and asked, in fact, he didn't want Eleventh Brother to choose the wrong one, otherwise, a goddess who was blown out would not be worthy of it. eleventh brother.

He Lianao said with certainty, "Yes, brother emperor, I am sure that the sixth one is Xiao Jingxue, there is no mistake."

"In that case, princess, please take off the hijab." Emperor Jingxi was relieved now, and let everyone see the final result, lest Prince Xiao will play tricks again.

Xiao Jingxue gritted her teeth angrily, not only unwilling, but also did not want to make a fool of herself in public, so she sat still.

Emperor Jingxi said displeasedly, "Princess, do you mean that you don't want to admit defeat? Just now the princess said that she is willing to gamble and admit defeat, and the conditions and rules are all set by Prince Xiao. Does the princess have anything to say?"

He could hear that his tone was wrong, and what he said was the truth, so Xiao Jinghan couldn't deny it on the spot, "Prince sister, the matter has come to this point, losing is losing, under the watchful eyes of everyone, don't you want to deny it and let everyone laugh at our Langya country's defeat?" Sorry, have you lost your temper?"

Xiao Jingxue had no choice but to take off her hijab, gritted her teeth and said, "I admit defeat! But please tell me, how did you choose me?" If choosing her means marrying her, that would be great.

Helian Yiyi also said coquettishly, "Yeah, Uncle Eleven, just tell me, I see that they are all the same, how can you be so sure?"

Helian Ao gave a cold snort, which seemed to mean that it was no big deal.

Emperor Jingxi also wanted to know what happened. He was so careful when he didn't see the eleventh brother before. Could it be that it was a matter of his life, so he became serious? "Eleventh Brother, since the outcome has been decided, you can tell Princess Qingyun's doubts by talking about it." To put it bluntly, it's just to convince her to lose.

"Yes, Brother Emperor," Helian said proudly, "Actually, to recognize a person, you don't have to look at her face, sometimes a few inadvertent small movements can explain everything. Just now, if Xiao Jingxue was standing with other court ladies, The younger brother may not have guessed that easily, but they sat down and made it easier for the younger brother to guess."

What?Xiao Jinghan was surprised and regretful, he was the one who suggested to let everyone sit down, because he was worried that Helian Ao would judge from his height, so is it wrong? "Please make it clear, my lord."

"Prince Xiao, please look at how the other maids' hands are placed." He Lianao raised his chin, motioning Xiao Jinghan to look over.

Everyone's gazes also turned together, and saw that the hands of the maids were placed according to the etiquette in the palace. They overlapped their hands up and down in a very regular manner, and put their fingers flat on their knees. There was no difference.

Xiao Jinghan understood somewhat, "What does the lord mean, that Jingxue's hands are different from theirs?"

"Of course it's different." He Lianao raised his eyebrows, "Xiao Jingxue's hands were just clenched with two fists, and he was sitting with his feet separated, with his hands on his legs. If this king still sees such an obvious difference, If you don't come out, won't you be blind?"

It turned out to be like this.Emperor Jingxi suddenly realized that the eleventh brother was really observant, so he didn't think about it. "That's right, Eleventh Brother, you are really smart, Princess Qing Yun, are you convinced now?"

Feng Ruotong looked at Helian Ao tenderly with inexplicable admiration. Don't look at the prince's usual unruly behavior. It's not just a matter of words. He walked around just now to observe their differences carefully, right?Although the final result is not worth mentioning to put it bluntly, if you don't look carefully, you can't find it.

However, there is still some element of luck in it. If one of the maids does not sit according to the rules, and her hands are placed differently from others, the prince may not be a good choice, so she is relatively lucky.

Xiao Jing was furious, could it be that such a simple action betrayed himself? "I don't accept it! It's impossible, I don't believe it, except for me, other people's hands are the same, lord, have you already known what they are going to do, it doesn't count at all!"

Helian Yiyi secretly thought to make a fuss, make a fuss, the more trouble the better, how could Feng Ruotong be fulfilled so easily?
"Xiao Jingxue, don't make trouble for no reason!" Helian Ao's eyes were cold, "The rules are all set by you, and the palace ladies were summoned by the emperor's brother, so what have you got to do with this king? Don't you have eyes, don't you know how their hands are?" Let it go, under the watchful eyes of everyone, how will I tell them?" I knew that this annoying woman would not give up easily, but he would not let her make a fuss on her own.

"I—" Xiao Jingxue blushed, but she was also speechless, and said after a while, "Anyway, this round doesn't count! It's agreed that I will compete with Feng Ruotong, so what is this? No, we have to compete again !"

"Xiao Jingxue, you are enough!" He Lianao completely lost his patience, slapped the table, and said solemnly, "This king has been playing with you until now, and it is almost time for you to stop. If you lose, you lose. The marriage between the two countries is still the same. Who to marry depends entirely on the emperor's brother, if you don't admit it, this king will not be polite to you!"

Xiao Jinghan's complexion changed, and he stepped forward, "What is your lord going to do to Jingxue? My country came here to make peace, and it is for the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries. It is not for the lord to humiliate and bully me. Please stop when you lose!" Lose is lost, Jing Although Xue was a little unreasonable, but Tie Wang threatened her like this, and he did not give Langya Kingdom face, how could he swallow his anger.

"This king humiliated and bullied Xiao Jingxue?" He Lianao sneered mockingly, "She still has to be qualified!"

"you--"

"Eleventh Brother, you've gone too far!" Emperor Jingxi sternly reprimanded, "No matter what, Prince Xiao and Princess Qingyun are guests from afar, but you keep making unreasonable words. What's the reason? I apologize to Prince Xiao!"

Originally, Princess Qing Yun lost, and the marriage had to be decided by him. Prince Xiao was not able to get over it, and the eleventh brother wanted to provoke him again. If he was annoyed by this, the marriage between the two countries would fail, and the two countries would turn against each other, and the consequences would be irrelevant Estimated.Can't the eleventh brother say something soft, turn the situation around and let Prince Xiao step down?Besides, what the eleventh brother said was too much, who could bear it.

Feng Ruotong knew that the emperor was really angry, and reminded in a low voice, "My lord, don't say any more, after all, Langya Kingdom lost, so why do you embarrass Prince Xiao?"

He Lianao's face turned ashen, "Brother Huang, why do you have to be like this? Prince Xiao and Xiao Jingxue were at fault in the first place, and my ministers are just discussing the matter. Why do you want to apologize to them?"

"Forget it, Your Majesty," Xiao Jinghan sneered silently, "Xiao Wang knows that Tie Wang has always been upright and honest, he is not willing to make amends, and the Emperor is also forcing him not to. Xiao Wang will not take it to heart."

Emperor Jingxi turned pale with anger. Did Prince Xiao mean that he couldn't control the eleventh brother? How decent is this! "Eleventh brother, didn't you hear what I said? I apologize to Prince Xiao!"

"My brother did not say anything wrong to Prince Xiao, so there is no need to make amends." He Lianao also came to be tough, but refused to bow his head.

"Bold!" Emperor Jingxi was furious, and slammed the table, startling everyone, "Helian Ao, you dare to disobey me like this, your crime is unforgivable! Come!"

The guard immediately stepped forward, "This subordinate is here!"

"The iron king has no king, and he has twenty sticks to serve as a warning to others!" Emperor Jingxi's words were like knives, and it seemed that he was really angry, but he was very helpless in his heart. In order to protect Feng Ruotong, my younger brother lost his sense of propriety. If he didn't punish him, others would think that the eleventh brother didn't see him as an emperor, and he would give others a chance to gossip. I believe that the eleventh brother would understand his painstaking efforts.

Feng Ruotong was taken aback, her face paled instantly, she originally wanted the prince to bow his head to the emperor, but the prince insisted on being tough to the end, it was not too much for the emperor to beat the prince, but she couldn't bear it, and in her panic, she He wanted to stand up and intercede for Helian Ao.
