Indeed, if the Ninth Prince broke his promise, he would be ridiculed and criticized by everyone.
But for now, the Ninth Prince has become the center of rumors.
Aren’t you afraid of itching when you have too many lice?
Besides, rumors and the like have no effect on true noble people.
The ninth prince is deeply favored by the emperor, his marriage is already arranged, but he has not yet entered the court to serve.
Not to mention that it was just a rumor in the streets, even if you really made a mistake and were impeached by the censor, it would have no impact.
Demotion and salary reduction?
He had no job and no salary.
House arrest?
He originally lived in the palace and rarely went out in his early years.
Judging from his weak appearance, he probably prefers to rest at home.
Besides these, what else can be punished?
He is your Majesty's beloved son.
I guess as long as it's not a serious crime of treason, Your Majesty won't do anything to him!
On the contrary, Wei Jiulang, after making such a fuss today, will once again drag himself and the entire Wei family into the storm of public opinion.
The old story between Concubine Dong and her ex-husband will also be talked about over and over again!
This is the past that the Wei family least wants to face.
"Hahaha!"
Wei Jiulang didn't dare to say more and could only smile awkwardly, "Your Highness is too modest!"
Gu Qingcheng still didn't appreciate it and looked at Wei Jiulang with disdain, "Do you have a problem with your brain?"
"Your Highness has already said it, Your Highness is not being modest!"
Wei Jiulang: ...Knock your mother! What the hell do you want?
Wei Jiulang himself did not realize that the initiative between him and Gu Qingcheng had fallen into Gu Qingcheng's hands.
Gu Qingcheng still looks weak, but as steady as an old dog. Oh, no, he is sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai.
As for Wei Jiulang, he became a clown who was anxiously waiting for Gu Qingcheng to help him.
"Your Highness the Ninth Prince, what exactly do you mean?"
Wei Jiulang couldn't bear it any longer, gritted his teeth, and spoke word by word.
Are you going to fight or not?
If you are a man, just be quick!
"It's nothing! Just a few words of truth before the game!"
Gu Qingcheng still looked calm and composed. She casually dealt with Wei Jiulang and then said to Huo Wuniang, "Wu Niang, you have to protect me when we get on the court later!"
Huo Wuniang seemed to understand what Gu Qingcheng meant. She glanced at Wei Jiulang, whose face was ashen, and was about to say "OK".
Wei Jiulang seemed to have grasped Gu Qingcheng's sore spot and pretended to be surprised. "What? Your Highness, you want your fiancée to protect you?"
Isn't this publicly admitting that he is a weakling and needs a woman's protection?
"That's right! If my fiancée doesn't protect me, how can she protect you? I'm telling you! No way! Don't even think about it!"
Gu Qingcheng is both proud and willful.
Wei Jiulang's face was stiff, he really wanted to yell at the Ninth Prince: When did I ask your fiancée to protect me?
I'm not you!
I'm not that weak!
Even playing polo requires a woman's protection!
Wei Jiulang was complaining madly in his heart, and his face showed a bit of contempt and disdain.
In fact, not only him, but also his companions and the young men and women who came to watch the excitement all showed surprise on their faces.
The Ninth Prince actually admitted it just like that.
He really relies on women and lives off them!
Huo Wuniang felt everyone's gazes and seemed to hear their whispers.
She was somewhat unaware of this, and was even more worried that the Ninth Prince would not be able to stand this strange treatment.
She subconsciously looked at Gu Qingcheng.
Gu Qingcheng seemed to have discovered some secret. She pointed at Wei Jiulang's face and excitedly shouted to Huo Wuniang, "Wu Niang! Look! He's jealous! Haha, he's jealous of me!"
Wei Jiulang almost choked to death on his own saliva.
He had a puzzled look on his face, and he turned his finger back and thought to himself: Am I jealous of you? I, I am jealous of nothing!
Wei Jiulang laughed out of anger, "Your Highness, you're joking. Why am I jealous of you? Jealous that you have a fiancée to protect you?"
You can't blame him for being disrespectful to the prince, he really couldn't help it!
"Yeah! You're just jealous that I have a fiancée! My fiancée is still so beautiful and powerful!"
Gu Qingcheng had an expression that said, "You're right."
She nodded vigorously, her beautiful face filled with pride and complacency. "The best part is, she's willing to protect me!"
"When playing martial arts, she's not afraid at all and is even willing to charge into battle for me!"
"I believe my Wu Niang can defeat ten enemies alone and wipe out thousands of enemies!"
Huo Wuniang: ...I feel a little embarrassed by the praise.
However, after hearing what Gu Qingcheng said, Huo Wuniang completely understood the other party's intentions.
The Ninth Prince doesn't care at all about "strong women and weak men".
"He" also doesn't care about the rumors outside about him being a gigolo or marrying into the wife's family.
What's more, the Ninth Prince felt proud that he had his fiancée to protect him.
"...your fiancée is charging into battle for you, what do you do?"
Wei Jiulang felt that his three views were challenged.
In his twenty years of life, this was probably the first time he encountered a man who relied on a woman and seemed so confident, oh no, he was actually proud of it!
Is this still a man?
