Quick Wear: The Beautiful Tool Man Refuses to Be Cannon Fodder
Chapter 183 The Cannon Fodder's Daughter 38
"What do you want here, Princess? Just say it directly! I have something else to do and don't have time to chat." Qi Yun'an came up to Yun Xi and said lightly.
"My Lord, I want to hold a flower-viewing banquet in the mansion. The main reason is that the other sisters in the mansion have grown up and need to meet someone, so my father wants me to help him look. I think, why not just hold a flower-viewing banquet and invite some young ladies and gentlemen from good families to come together, maybe we can create a few good couples." At this point, seeing Qi Yun'an's indifferent expression, Yun Xi rolled her eyes and continued.
"The main reason is that I haven't seen my sisters for a long time, so I can take this opportunity to invite the sisters in the mansion to come over and reminisce about the past. Moreover, I was young and impetuous before, and I did some bad things to Yun Miao. It would be good to take advantage of this opportunity of the sisters gathering to clear up the misunderstandings with Sister Miao. Your Excellency, what do you think..." Yun Xi said, and looked up at Qi Yun'an's expression.
Hearing Yun Xi's words, Qi Yun An, who was about to leave, paused. Thinking that if a flower viewing banquet was held in the mansion, he would be able to see Yun Miao at that time, he kept the words he was going to complain about Yun Xi in his mouth, but what he said next was: "Then do as the Crown Princess said! If you need help, just tell the housekeeper or Sijiu. I have something else to do, so I'll go to the study first." After saying that, he turned around and left.
Watching Qi Yun'an walking away, Yun Xi smiled complacently. She knew that as long as she mentioned Yun Miao, Qi Yun'an would definitely agree, and it turned out just as she expected. Su Xin also did what she had asked her to do, and now she just had to wait for Yun Miao to fall into her trap.
As for whether her father would agree to her proposal, Yun Xi was not worried about his rejection. After all, she and Yun Miao had already decided, but the other concubines were also of marriageable age, and being invited by her, the Crown Prince's Consort, would also raise the status of the other concubines in the mansion. In addition, with Yun Miao's status as the future general's wife, they would have a great chance of finding a better husband. Therefore, Yun Xi was not worried at all that her father would reject her proposal for something that was beneficial to the family.
As for asking Su Xin to make a special trip to the Marquis' Mansion, one reason was to persuade her father so that she wouldn't have to worry about Yun Miao not coming. After all, if she went to invite Yun Miao, she really couldn't guarantee that Yun Miao would definitely come.
Secondly, she wanted to go to her mother's place and get what she wanted, which was an essential part of her plan.
On this day, many magnificent carriages gathered at the palace of Prince Xuan of Qi.
Things like flower viewing and banquets are very common among the rich and powerful. One is to kill time and join in the fun. The second is to add support to the family. The third is, as Yun Xi proposed, to find a good marriage for the eligible relatives in the family.
Although Yun Miao was not willing to go to the banquet hosted by Yun Xi, she could not refuse Nanchang Marquis's words, so she had to go to Qi Xuanwang Mansion together. Before leaving the carriage, she could feel the extraordinary bustle in front of the prince's mansion.
"General Gu, the young lady is inside." Yun Miao, who was in the carriage, seemed to vaguely hear what Mei Xiang was saying outside.
Yun Miao came to the carriage with some curiosity, and was about to push open the curtain to get out of the carriage when suddenly the curtain in front of him was opened by a big hand.
Yun Miao looked in the direction of the person coming and saw Gu Yanting standing in front of her.
"Hey! Why are you here? Why aren't you wearing a mask today?" Yun Miao asked in surprise.
"I was worried that you wouldn't be able to adapt, so I came to keep you company. As for the mask, it's just for convenience in fighting on the battlefield. It won't have any impact if you don't wear it in the capital now." Gu Yanting looked at Yun Miao and said softly. He hadn't seen Yun Miao for a few days and he missed her very much, but considering Yun Miao's reputation, he didn't want to invite Yun Miao too frequently.
Although the distinction between men and women is not that serious, they are not married after all. If they have too frequent contact, it will be detrimental to Yun Miao's reputation.
When the people around the carriage saw Gu Yanting riding on horseback, they were all very curious about who this high-spirited and handsome man was. Why was he so unknown in the capital when he was so handsome? Many girls who were still waiting to be married also blushed and kept looking at the man in front of them secretly.
Although I have never seen this man before, judging from his heroic appearance and the clothes he wears, he does not look like a man from a humble family. I just don't know which family he is from. However, since he was invited to attend this flower viewing banquet, it also shows that even if the man in front of me is not such a high-ranking official, his family background is not too poor. Otherwise, he would not have the opportunity to be invited to this flower viewing banquet.
Before and after arriving at the Prince's Mansion, Gu Yanting did not rush in, but dismounted and waited there. He ignored the constant stream of gazes from all around him and stared at the front with burning eyes. Finally, after seeing a carriage approaching, Yun Ben's calm gaze became burning. As soon as the carriage stopped, he walked over.
The people around who kept looking at him were originally guessing Gu Yanting's identity, but due to his cold expression, Maodou didn't dare to step forward to ask.
Suddenly, they saw him walking towards an ordinary carriage, and their eyes widened with curiosity. But when they heard a maid call out the name "General Gu", they were all stunned. So... this handsome man in front of them was the General Gu who had been speculated to have a face like a demon. Who was the blind man who spread this rumor?
If someone who looks like this can be said to have a face like a demon, then what are those ordinary-looking people they saw before called? ? ? So why did such an unreliable rumor spread?
If they had known that General Gu would look like this, they would have asked their elders to discuss the marriage in detail, and the concubine's daughter would have gotten the upper hand! Speaking of concubine's daughters, could it be that the one in the carriage was the second daughter of the Nanchang Marquis's Mansion, General Gu's fiancée, Yun Miao?
I want to see what the second young lady of the Marquis's Mansion looks like, so that she can be favored by a dragon among men like General Gu and make a marriage contract with him.
They had indeed forgotten that when Gu Yanting returned to Beijing, many ladies in the capital looked down on him. And many of the rumors about him looking like a demon were also spread by them. One of their purposes was to discourage the family from marrying Gu Yanting.
At this moment, they could only watch as the cold and silent man gently helped a pink-dressed girl down from the carriage, carefully and without any help, as if he was afraid of bumping into the pink-dressed beauty. The curiosity of the people around them instantly reached its peak, and they all wanted to know what this pink-dressed girl looked like.
