"What?!"
"Brother actually wants to send me to that cannibalistic palace!"
Gu Linghuan slammed the book on the table with a "bang", but it accidentally fell to the ground.
He looked at it for a few seconds, but stubbornly refused to pick it up to show his resistance.
He had just been staying in the room for a few days to finish the homework assigned by Gu Ruozhao, and as soon as he came out he heard such "bad news".
His brother actually sold him out!
"Ling Huan, Her Majesty has her own reasons for doing this."
Gu Ruozhao was not annoyed by his rudeness, but picked up the book in a good-tempered manner.
Hearing him defend Feng Feiwan like this, Gu Linghuan became even more angry: "Brother, have you forgotten her past excessive behavior?"
Gu Ruozhao didn't pay attention to his words: "But this time, it's not just you, the others will go too."
Gu Linghuan clutched his chest and said sadly, "Brother, you are too naive. Maybe she found that you were unmoved and now she has set her sights on me."
"It's okay. I still have to go for the sake of my family."
Gu Linghuan took a deep breath and put on an expression of self-sacrifice: "But if she really does anything to me, I would rather die in glory than live in disgrace."
He saw Gu Ruozhao dusting off the book with his eyes downcast, but when he heard this, Gu Ruozhao raised his eyes in surprise.
There seemed to be some unspeakable emotions hidden in those faint eyes. Gu Linghuan heard a long sigh before he heard Gu Ruozhao's voice.
"This plan was completed jointly by His Majesty and I."
Gu Linghuan:……?
Help! He suspected that the brother in front of him was fake!
…
Gu Linghuan finally entered the palace.
Most of the men of marriageable age who entered the palace this time had participated in the selection before, so he was out of place among the group of weak and frail men.
It's like a wolf among the flock of sheep.
To be precise, a husky entered the flock of sheep, and the sheep were particularly disgusted with it.
"Look, that's Prime Minister Gu's brother, right?"
"Tsk, isn't it? Look at his appearance. Even though he is well-proportioned, he doesn't look like a boy at all."
"I don't know how to stand or sit..."
Gu Linghuan heard the gossip, and he raised his eyebrows and glared at the men who were gossiping: "What are you looking at!"
Those people were frightened and scattered, but soon gathered together and whispered to each other.
"According to what I heard from my family, His Majesty did this to test us. Those who want to enter His Majesty's harem must work hard and not be like some people who do not observe male ethics."
Not observing male ethics - Gu Linghuan.
Gu Linghuan was upset. He knew that there was nothing good about entering the palace, but he finally believed what Gu Ruozhao said.
It turns out that woman... really has no good intentions!
After hearing those words, Gu Linghuan couldn't stay in the palace for a moment, but it was impossible for him to escape.
The palace servant who brought them in did not take them to the palace, but asked them to wait here, saying that His Majesty had given special instructions.
The weather was hot and many people began to complain, and even wondered why they were asked to wait at the shooting range, but they still couldn't figure it out. Gu Linghuan, who was at the back, noticed a commotion in front.
"It's the Young Master of the Yun Family!"
Yun Qing is the object of imitation for almost all men in the capital. He is gentle and elegant. This time he is here to take on the responsibility of teaching.
Gu Linghuan had heard of his reputation, but now that he had seen him, he had to admit that in this capital, he was the only one who was qualified to be on par with his brother.
However, thinking about it this way, he felt even more disgusted with Feng Feiwan.
Who doesn't know that Yun Qing is best at music, chess, calligraphy and painting? Feng Feiwan probably has bad intentions and wants them to learn these things to please women.
…
Yun Qing gathered his sleeves and smiled modestly in response to their admiring looks.
"This time, I have indeed been entrusted by His Majesty..."
I agreed to something I never dared to agree to before.
Yun Qing didn't expect that this opportunity would be in front of him so soon.
What she said was not just empty words, but... a real commitment.
His eyes were particularly determined.
"But what Your Majesty asked me to teach this time is not what you all expected, but..."
The people around him quickly presented the things.
There was a bow and some arrows on it.
Yun Qing did not explain in too many words, but picked up the bow and arrow without hesitation.
His eyes were focused on the bow and arrow. He paused for a moment, and finally his fingers pulled the bowstring. The arrow on the string flew off and hit the bull's eye!
It’s really about learning archery!
What surprised them even more was why the young master of the Yun family would touch this thing!
Gentle temperament, talented...
Why do you choose to learn these things when you don't want to learn anything else?
They seemed to have forgotten the purpose of entering the palace. Everyone was talking about it. Most of them were reluctant because they were spoiled in their daily lives.
Faced with this situation, Yun Qing gently swept across the entire audience and spoke the most "cruel" words in the most gentle tone:
"If you can't enter today, Yun Qing can't guarantee whether His Majesty will blame you. The punishment is not severe, just one more hour."
After he said this, everyone gritted their teeth and went to learn this archery skill.
…
He entered the palace today to learn archery, which was not difficult for Gu Linghuan to accept. On the contrary, he liked it very much.
He should have been active, but this time he made excuses not to participate.
Gu Linghuan was puzzled. Yun Qing came to teach them archery?
This is unimaginable.
But he happened to see with his own eyes that Yun Qing's archery skills were very impressive.
But Feng Feiwan would be so kind...?
Gu Linghuan couldn't think of anything, he just heard a strange noise nearby, which came from the palace wall.
He raised his head and looked towards the palace wall, where he saw a dark shadow.
Before he could see what it was, the black shadow came towards him.
Even though he had practiced martial arts for many years and reacted quickly to avoid being caught by the corner of his clothes, the figure let out a low cry and rolled into his arms due to inertia.
The girl broke into his world with a pair of innocent big eyes, and she whimpered softly.
“It hurts.”
Gu Linghuan, who had never been in close contact with a woman, was at a loss.
He... he was being flirted with?
Why does it look like he is bullying her?
Gu Linghuan had a tense face. He pushed her away belatedly, but the corner of his clothes was still being held tightly by someone.
He leaned forward and ended up pouncing on her.
The girl seemed to have just regained consciousness and was slightly stunned when she noticed his actions.
Gu Linghuan quickly let go of her, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Help! He seems to be really losing his manly virtues!
Even though it was the woman who was rude first, she would definitely misunderstand and reprimand him for his behavior...
Gu Linghuan heard the girl's sweet laughter like a silver bell.
"You're so cute..."
