Chapter 157 Deliberately Finding Trouble
After hearing this, Gu Rongyu no longer felt uncomfortable and was so angry that he wanted to laugh!
He knew that Chang Xixi was doing this on purpose, just to make him angry. In this case, he would just play with the lady he liked, "Appreciation? This is not appreciation. I wonder if Madam Chang would like me? Look... I am not bad looking. As a prince, I wonder if you can have a kiss with me."
Chang Xixi couldn't help but slap him!
How can this person be so shameless?
I didn't want to nag at him anymore. I was already feeling bad, and looking at Da, the one who started it all, made it even worse. The saying "out of sight, out of mind" really stuck with me.
"General, if you continue like this, I will tell the imperial concubine that you are being a hooligan to me. You will lose face as a general."
Gu Rongyu said, "That's fine. It's a good opportunity to tell everyone that I'm attracted to you. I'm thinking of marrying you. Your son is still young, so it's not impossible for me to take him in as my stepson."
"you……"
Chang Xixi felt that he was so irritating that her throat was smoking, so she turned around and left.
Li Da looked at Gu Rongyu's distraught expression from afar, which slowly turned into a smug smile. He didn't understand what the two were doing! He sighed.
Now that we have talked, is the misunderstanding still not resolved?
He didn't dare to speculate too much, fearing that after returning to the palace, he would be targeted by Chang Xixi. That would make life really difficult! He took a deep look at his young master, turned around, and followed Chang Xixi away with grievance.
He had seen a lot of Chang Xixi's methods of winning people's hearts.
Li Da was completely conquered. He had known for a long time that it would be better to be loyal to Chang Xixi than to himself! Oh, is he so unattractive now?
Chang Xixi returned to the palace banquet hall and sat down. Prince Rui and the Crown Prince came to toast her.
She had no choice but to continue drinking. The Crown Prince and Prince Rui were the center of the power vortex. How could she, a newcomer, offend them so easily?
Unless you don't want to live anymore! Or don't want to gain a foothold in Kyoto, you should naturally return the greeting with a smile.
However, she still had to make some excuses, such as, "Prince, please forgive me. I can't drink much, so I can only drink a small sip. Please don't mind."
"Just now, I saw you treat the princess differently..."
"That's because I want to win glory for the Southern Dynasty and cannot lose to her in momentum. I can't let her think that we have no one left in the Southern Dynasty!" Chang Xixi had already prepared this speech in her mind more than a dozen times.
The prince was speechless for a moment after what she said. He had no choice but to let it go!
Then it was Prince Rui’s turn to toast, using the same rhetoric!
The prince instantly felt balanced.
She's like this to everyone!
Chang Xixi had just sat down when a man walked towards her, holding a wine jug and a wine glass in his hands. His expression and attitude made it seem like he wanted to eat her alive!
She stood up suddenly, and the wine glass in her hand was shaking!
this……
This Gu Rongyu is really haunting us.
Seeing her stand up, Gu Rongyu said, "Madam Chang, let's have a drink too. However, I want you to drink a full glass of wine, not just a little bit. Can you do that?"
"cannot."
Chang Xixi directly refused. This man wanted to take advantage of her. Haha! How could he succeed? This kind of thing! He couldn't offend the Crown Prince and Prince Rui just because he did.
Gu Rongyu is a relatively tolerant character in the court. He is indifferent to everyone, and a little cold, looking down on everyone.
He actually took the initiative to toast! This was like a strange news in the world, and everyone looked over.
"Well, if you don't drink, I'll ask the emperor to marry you and show you my determination. If you drink this glass of wine, I won't tell you anything. What do you think?"
"You...you are threatening me, right?"
"yes."
Gu Rongyu spoke directly. If he didn't threaten her, so many eyes would be on her. How could he let others spy on his woman?
What he wanted to do was to assert his sovereignty, making everyone think that this Mrs. Chang was the one he had his eye on, or that they had an ambiguous relationship. He wanted those who thought Chang Xixi was profitable to take sides.
As he was thinking this, the wine glass in his hand had already clinked with the glass in Chang Xixi's hand.
Chang Xixi forced herself to drink up the wine in the glass. As soon as she put it down, Gu Rongyu's other hand holding the wine jug came over and filled the glass.
There was also a lot of noise all around, and the court officials were joking and teasing each other.
The voices of the two had long been drowned out!
However, their actions could be seen by others, so the Crown Prince and Prince Rui were also watching. She whispered, "That's enough. That's enough!"
There was a hint of warning and a hint of threat in Chang Xixi's words.
Gu Rongyu became even more aggressive and whispered, "No, you don't want to drink! I have to go and beg you, so why don't I go now?" Gu Rongyu called Qingnan.
Watching Qingnan walking towards her, Chang Xixi became even more certain that the person in front of her was Gu Rongyu!
This man!
He must have known that he knew his identity! It was so obvious, yet he still let Qingnan come, haha.
He really is.
It's so funny.
Chang Xixi didn't panic either. She picked up the wine glass and said, "If he wants to play, she will play with him." She didn't get the upper hand in private just now, so she must get it back here, right?
She smiled and snatched the wine jug from Gu Rongyu's hand. She showed him the wine and said loudly, "I wonder if the general has a wife and children at home? I see that you are handsome and have good character. Do you have many wives and concubines at home?"
"I have no family."
The emperor also heard Chang Xixi's words, and everyone present held their breath, listening to how Gu Rongyu would respond.
He held down Chang Xixi's hand holding the wine jug and filled his own cup with more wine. He didn't stop until the glass was full and dripped onto the ground!
Chang Xixi's face turned red immediately!
This man is taking advantage of her!
Oh My God!
She whispered, "Shameless!"
"Since I'm attracted to you, I naturally want to get closer to you. Touching your hand is nothing, right? How about we have another drink?"
Gu Rongyu picked up the wine glass in his hand and looked at Chang Xixi.
Everyone at the banquet was watching Chang Xixi's actions. She had been forced to drink a full cup just now, and now she was being forced again. Gu Rongyu just now did not respond.
This time...she's going to be serious.
Then he said, "Since you want to drink, you have to have an excuse."
