Murong Jinyi listened to her indirectly scolding her for being black, and she found it funny. This woman was not as straightforward and friendly as Yi Yami. As expected, she still liked Yi Yami more. She was unwilling to be taken advantage of verbally, and fought back, "It doesn't matter. Local climate and soil nurture local people. Miss Feng is destined to marry and serve the men of your Yinwei country. Men will like you more if you have a fair skin. We children of the grassland are born to ride horses, so naturally we don't need the capital to please men with our beauty."
When Gu Nanji heard this, his expression didn't show, but the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
"Brother Nan Ji~Look at her. I was just praising my sister for her bravery and fighting skills, but she got suspicious. I didn't mean to offend her. Why did she say such hurtful things..." Feng Niaoniao bit her lip and pinched her handkerchief.
The other noble ladies were also a little angry. Murong Jinyi scolded all the noble ladies.
Before Gu Nanji could say anything, Murong Jinyi said, "Don't call me sister. We're not necessarily older. Besides, I have a younger sister, and she's much prettier than you!"
Feng Niaoniao didn't believe it. Wu Yuanlou happened to be passing by with Murong Guiyi. Murong Jinyi waved and said, "Sister, come here."
Murong Guiyi was confused, but when he saw his sister calling him, he went over obediently.
Feng Niaoniao and others were indeed surprised by Murong Guiyi's outstanding appearance.
"Sister, what do you want to tell me?" Although Murong Guiyi was weak, her voice was very pleasant.
Murong Jinyi raised his chin and said, "See? My sister is as pretty as any of you, and her voice is better than yours!"
Wu Yuanlou followed over, and one of Feng Niaoniao's girlfriends blushed. Wu Yuanlou said to Murong Guiyi, "It's okay, let's go. There are still many places to see!"
Murong Guiyi was about to agree when the blushing woman spoke up, "You, a grassland person, how can you be so shameless as to openly walk side by side with a man from our country on the street? What will it look like if the news gets out?"
Feng Niaoniao took a look and saw that it was one of her good friends who admired Wu Yuanlou. Her father was the Minister of War Shen Ruipeng, and her name was Shen Feiman.
Murong Guiyi blushed when she said that. Just as she was about to speak, Wu Yuanlou said, "Chen Feiman, I can go with whoever I want. It's none of your business. Just mind your own business and don't meddle in my affairs!"
"You, I'm doing this for your own good. If you do this, it will be bad for your reputation..." Shen Feiman lowered her tone after being criticized.
"My reputation is not important at all. Please stop talking nonsense, otherwise I don't know whose reputation will be worse. And you are a noble lady from the Beijing circle? I think you are all bored!" Wu Yuanlou glared at them and left with Murong Guiyi.
As they walked, he said to Murong Guiyi, "Don't bother with them. Their family is powerful and they just rely on their father to bully others. It's only because of their father that they do this. Otherwise, who would tolerate them?"
Murong Jinyi glanced at Wu Yuanlou. She originally thought that Wu Yuanlou was a coward, but unexpectedly, Wu Yuanlou's fighting ability was much stronger than Gu Nanji's.
Murong Jinyi glanced at Gu Nanji and said, "Boring, let's go..."
Gu Nanji followed.
Feng Niaoniao put down the sword and was about to continue following.
Gu Nanji turned around and said, "Miss Feng, please don't follow me. It's really a letdown to come here uninvited."
Feng Niaoniao was stunned where she stood. Gu Nanji and the other man walked away. "He said I was a spoiler? He hasn't said a harsh word to me in all these years, but today he actually spoke to me like this for a foreign woman..."
The noble ladies comforted the heartbroken Feng Niaoniao and Shen Feiman.
Hu Die'er rolled her eyes and said, "Since those two grassland people are bullying us like this, why not destroy what they are proud of? Isn't Murong Jinyi proud of her ability to ride a horse?"
As soon as she opened her mouth, Feng Niaoniao continued, "Then cut off her hands and feet. I wonder how she can still ride on a horse!"
Hu Dieer curled her lips. This was not what she said.
"Isn't Murong Guiyi pretty?" Hu Die'er reminded.
Shen Feiman's eyes were red and she was so angry that she screamed, "I'm going to cut her face!"
Hu Die'er patted the two of them and said, "Calm down, you two. I was just kidding. How can we really do this? If we provoke a war between the two countries, we will be in big trouble. So let it be. Let nature take its course. In a few days, those two women will be gone, and our General Gu and General Wu will have to go back to the border. If you two really like each other, can't you just ask your father to ask the emperor for a marriage?"
The two of them thought what he said made sense, but the idea they had just had started to germinate in their hearts.
The two looked at each other and reached an agreement.
Hu Die'er curled her lips, afraid that you wouldn't do it.
A masked man passing by shook his head slightly when he heard this and rode his horse to Yao's mansion.
Gu Wanping saw a masked man hurried into the house and shouted at her, "Yao Jinyu, stop right there!"
The masked man stopped and turned around mechanically, "Mother..."
"Take off your veil! Look at yourself, what do you look like?" Gu Wanping taught her.
Yao Jinyu took off her veil, revealing a pair of heroic eyes, a high nose bridge, and thin lips.
"Look at you, you dress inappropriately all day long, neither androgynous, and you wander around the streets all day long. If something happens to you, what will your father and I do? Your brother lives so far away and can't take care of you at all. Neither of you makes me worry!" Gu Wanping said angrily.
"Oh... Mom, calm down..." Yao Jinyu learned 80% of Gu Beijian's mischievousness.
"Why are you trying to vent your anger? You said that when the Yao and Gu families were having dinner together, you were not there. Do you think it's so easy to see your elder cousin and your second cousin? You haven't seen each other for months and years. When they finally had dinner together, you were not there. Where were you? What were you doing?" Gu Wanping wanted to twist her ears angrily.
Yao Jinyu dodged, "Oh, then didn't I rush back from another place?"
"Out of town? You went out of town? Kyoto is so big, isn't it enough for you to be wild? You ran away to another place? Okay, okay, you really want to piss me off to death..." Gu Wanping touched her chest.
"Okay, let's stop talking. Mom, you haven't seen me for so long, don't you miss me?" Yao Jinyu put his arm around Gu Wanping and walked into the house.
"Who misses you? You're like a rope on a mountain. It's impossible to keep an eye on you. You disappear in the blink of an eye..." Gu Wanping's tone softened a little.
Yao Jinyu smiled and said, "Just admit it, you miss me..."
"Go away, have you eaten? You must be hungry. Mom will make you something delicious..." Gu Wanping was soft-hearted but tough on the outside.
"Okay, I want to drink eight-treasure porridge!" Yao Jinyu said with a smile.
The two of them went into Yao's mansion.
