Sick beauty crying bag does not want to be the villain

After calming down for a while, Gu Rongcai said, "Did you sneak out?"

Song Qianyuan nodded.

Even if they leave the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the guests can only follow one attendant. Unless the banquet is over, the attendants in the side room cannot leave and wander around at will. head.

Gu Rong was terrified, he turned his head and tried to lower his voice: "Where is Yuan Sheng?"

"Watching the wind there, the two of us cannot follow the young master at the same time, young master, I will take you back."

Gu Rong hurriedly followed Song Qianyuan out of the small garden.

At the other end of the garden, the mournful cries were still ringing, the woman was crying like weeping, and she looked particularly terrifying in the small garden where the trees were dancing.

Song Qianyuan suddenly said: "I heard that cry in the ear room just now."

Gu Rong subconsciously felt that Song Qianyuan came here because he heard the cry, not because he was "worried about something unexpected happening to Gu Rong".

It's also possible that I found Gu Rong just by chance.

Song Qianyuan should have known his life experience a long time ago. Even if the old eunuch didn't tell him, the people of the King of Peking should have looked for him more than once.

Will Song Qianyuan know how Concubine Xiao Gui died?

It is said that Concubine Xiao became a little crazy before she died, probably because of the grief of losing her child. There are also rumors that Concubine Xiao was rejected by the emperor after she went crazy, and was bestowed with a cup of poisoned wine by the emperor.

Of course, the latter statement seems a bit unreliable. Some time after Concubine Xiao's death, the emperor even specially issued a message to mourn her.

However, the most ruthless emperor's family, a crazy woman, is destined not to get much attention from the emperor.

So did Song Qianyuan think of Concubine Xiao Gui?

Gu Rong didn't know why the system said that Song Qianyuan had no fighting spirit to win the throne. In the script, Song Qianyuan was finally forced to take the road of winning the throne by King Beiping.

A person without fighting spirit is of course doomed to failure.

Is it because he feels that this deep palace is cold, not as spacious as the outside world?

Gu Rong was not Song Qianyuan, so he couldn't figure out what he was thinking, so naturally he had no way of knowing.

When the two walked out of the small garden, the sound of crying had disappeared. It is estimated that some court ladies had already brought that "Concubine Ru" back.

In fact, Gu Rong has also heard a little about the "Ru Concubine" just now.

It was rumored that she had gone crazy more than two years ago. As for why she went crazy, Gu Rong didn't quite know.

The two were walking, and they were about to reach the Hall of Supreme Harmony when suddenly several people walked towards them.

One of them was very conspicuously dressed, and he was actually the third princess of the Western Regions.

Behind the third princess was the prince and several officials' children.

It seems that the prince took the three princesses to visit the imperial garden on the orders of the emperor to show his friendship as a landlord.

A group of people is coming here in a mighty manner.

Gu Rong heard the prince say: "Not far ahead is the imperial garden in our palace. Osmanthus flowers are in full bloom at this time. I wonder if the third princess has ever smelled the fragrance of osmanthus flowers?"

The third princess seemed to lack interest in the prince's introduction, she just looked around, and suddenly she saw Gu Rong walking towards her.

Gu Rong was wearing a pair of brocade shirts today, because he was entering the palace to attend a palace banquet, he was dressed more luxuriously than in the past, and the cloak behind him was embroidered with delicate embroidery, making Gu Rong both noble and handsome.

In fact, the prince's appearance is not bad, but probably the third princess is used to the kind of heroic and strong men in the Western Regions, but she is more interested in Gu Rong, a soft and weak rich man. After looking it up, he turned around and asked the prince, "Who is this? Wouldn't His Royal Highness introduce you?"

"Oh," the prince said with a smile, "this is Gu Rong, the second son of Duke Gu's mansion. His younger brother, the princess, has just met him, and it's Gu Zhiyu who sits in the first few seats."

After speaking, the crown prince looked at Gu Rong, probably to see Gu Rong's reaction.

"Cough cough cough..."

Gu Rong coughed against the wind, and raised his hand to cover his mouth.

Song Qianyuan came up from behind and said to Gu Rong: "Master, it's windy outside, let's go back to the main hall."

After speaking, he stretched out his hand to help Gu Rong straighten the cloak on his shoulders.

With this action, even a fool can see that Gu Rong is a sick child, and the expressions of the three princesses looking at them suddenly become complicated.

Gu Rong turned sideways and bowed to the princess: "I have seen the third princess."

The third princess lost interest in an instant, turned around and said to the prince: "Where is the imperial garden that the prince said? Why don't you take me there to have a look?"

The crown prince glanced at Gu Rong inexplicably, and quickly led the three princesses around them, walking towards the imperial garden.

Finally getting rid of the prince and the others, Gu Rong came outside the hall.

Turning around, Song Qianyuan had disappeared behind Gu Rong.

Yuan Sheng, who was waiting near the main hall, saw Gu Rong, and quickly came up to meet him: "You scared me to death, young master, why are you here now? Just now, the father-in-law of the main hall saw that I was alone and asked me if you came Where did he go, luckily I was clever and gave him some money... Has Little Qianzi gone back?"

Gu Rong nodded.

Yuan Sheng was impressed by Song Qianyuan's skills: "How did he escape so many guards outside the hall, it's really amazing..."

Gu Rong also began to be curious about Song Qianyuan's skills.

He can mount a beam, is good at riding and shooting, and is even better than most of the guards in the palace. Who taught him these things?

**

Two days later, it was the day of the civil and military competition between Daning and the envoys of the Western Regions.

Gu Rong was still invited into the palace by the Holy Majesty.

If it weren't for the princess to come to the court, Gu Rong would not have come on such an occasion, but now it is stipulated that all sons of the right age from the families of officials above the fifth rank in the court must participate.It can be seen that His Majesty still attaches great importance to making peace with the Western Regions.

When they arrived at the school grounds, Gu Rong took a seat under the guidance of the eunuch.

This time, the competition venue is located in the palace school grounds, and I heard that tomorrow's hunting sage will arrange the competition in a hunting ground outside the palace.

First, the emperor made a scene, and after a lively Cuju performance match, Wenbi officially began.

The prince sent several talented colleagues from the Hall of Diligent Learning.

Not surprisingly, there are many literati in Daning, which cannot be compared in the Western Regions.

Then there is Wubi.

The first thing in the martial arts competition is archery. Although the prince carefully selected the participants, those people did not disappoint the prince after they entered the field. They almost hit the bull's-eye with their arrows, but as soon as the envoys from the Western Regions entered the field, they were withdrawn. archery target.

They asked the palace servants to replace the archery targets with twice the size of the original ones, and asked them to move the position of the vertical targets back by three feet.

This time the difficulty was greatly escalated. What was even more exaggerated was that the wrestler who was sent to the field took out the bow he brought from the Western Regions. It is said that the bow contained more than 20 stones.

Before going on the field, the wrestlers from the Western Regions held their bows around the school field for a week, and asked if anyone would try to draw the bow.

This is clearly a provocation.

Immediately someone tried to lift it up, but it turned out that it was difficult to even pick it up, and after putting it down, they kept rubbing their wrists, let alone pulling them away.

Seeing this, the warrior from the Western Regions turned pale and bowed to the emperor who was sitting on a high place: "Your Majesty, you are making a fool of yourself!"

Then he walked to the archery position, took a steady step, and raised the bow and arrow.

There were knotted muscles on the arm of the wrestler, and the bowstring was pulled tightly by him.

Immediately, there were chaotic sighs in the audience.

With a sound of "咻", the Hercules released the arrow, and the body of the arrow became an afterimage. After a while, the eunuch's voice came from the archery target: "Hit!"

The crowd was in an uproar.

The warriors from the Western Regions left the field and bowed to the emperor again.

At this time, the princess of the Western Regions also stood up proudly: "Your Majesty, is there anyone willing to compete with our warrior?"

The prince immediately said loudly: "Is there anyone willing to give it a try?"

There was no one to answer.

Some people are even discussing how the warrior from the Western Regions did it.

So the eunuch sang loudly: "Victory in the Western Regions!"

The prince's complexion was very bad.

The emperor deliberately entrusted him with the errand this time, and it seemed that he was about to mess it up.

But the archery ability of that warrior from the Western Regions is really extraordinary, and the horseman's skill of the Western Regions is even more extraordinary. How can they win them afterward?

The second and third items are moving live targets and horse archery.

The prince sent out all the people who could be sent out, and even he himself went into battle, but in the end he lost in the second item.

At this time, the princess of the Western Regions stood up with her sleeves rolled up, and asked the emperor, "Your Majesty, the last item for today, this princess also applies to participate."

The princesses of the Western Regions are a female class, if they represent the Western Regions and win another event, where will they put their face in Daning?

Although the emperor nodded generously, his expression was a little worried, and his eyes behind the hat and crown were looking at the prince.

The prince pointed at a few people under the gaze of the emperor, and finally said: "Gu Rong!"

Most of the people present knew who Gu Rong was, and also knew that he was a sick child, and there was a lot of discussion, Gu Tai'an even showed surprise, and stood up from his seat with a "huo".

He really thought that the prince wanted to send Gu Rong to ride a horse and shoot arrows, and he was about to come out to plead guilty, but he heard the prince say: "Where is your companion?"

Gu Rong felt a "thump" in his heart.

Song Qianyuan entered the palace with him, but waited outside instead of following him.

Gu Rong got up and said: "Report to His Royal Highness, he..."

While arranging his clothes, the prince walked out of the arena, saying: "Outside, right? Let him in!"

Gu Rong had no choice but, after a while, Song Qianyuan was ushered in by a young eunuch.

His identity is really not suitable to be exposed in front of so many people present.

It's a pity that the crown prince was eager to win, so he went to the back and changed into his riding outfit, and came out and said to everyone: "In this competition, whoever can help Daning regain the victory will be rewarded heavily!"

After speaking, he took a long leg and got on his horse.

The prince changed his clothes, which showed that Daning really had to win this competition. Everyone was trembling, and they all followed the prince on the horse.

Daning lost two cities in a row, and everyone who was supported by the prince actually faintly lost their ambitions.

The princess of the Western Regions did not come last year, and the visiting envoys from the Western Regions did not bring as many people as they did this time. This time, the king of the Western Regions sent so many capable people, perhaps just to support the princess.

Of course, choosing a son-in-law who is worthy of the princess is also one of the goals.

But for Daning, losing the competition is tantamount to losing face. The Western Regions have bowed their heads to Daning for many years, and they are determined not to allow this kind of thing to happen.

The test begins.

Several guards held the moving target and walked around the field at high speed.

With two sounds of "咻咻", the princess of the Western Regions hit two arrows in a row.

Cheers came from the direction of the envoys of the Western Regions.

"How?" The princess of the Western Regions said proudly, "What skills do you have, just use it!"

Suddenly, a horse sprang out beside her.

The man on horseback was wearing the clothes of the servants of the Gu family, with his back straightened, he took out an arrow feather from his quiver, put it on the bow, and shot it off the string.

"middle!"

The eunuch outside the venue raised the banner and sang loudly.

All eyes fell on the man.

Song Qianyuan just sat on the horse, looked towards Gu Rong with his dark eyes, and smiled slightly with the corners of his lips curled up.

Now the spectators who changed to Daning began to cheer.

The author has something to say:

Qian Zai: At critical moments, you must be handsome!
