The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 1841: Chapter 1841: King of Han (Part 4)

”In this regard, I believe I know better than you, Prince.” Gu Qingheng’s smile remained unchanged, but his eyes turned cold.

Qi Jingyun frowned slightly, but then smiled and turned back to his seat.

Only then did the chill around Gu Qingheng slowly dissipate.

Yang Ruxin reached out and held his hand, giving it a squeeze: ”Are you jealous?”

Gu Qingheng laughed: ”Yes, but I’m quite proud. Such an outstanding wife is mine, they can only be anxious...”

Yang Ruxin couldn’t help but laugh.

The hall began to buzz with activity, as everyone started drinking and chatting.

Only Jiu E was left dumbfounded; there was nothing before him, not even a piece of the radish served earlier, and now, to listen to the music and watch the dance, one should have wine, but he didn’t even have a cup of water in front of him. It was as if the Emperor of the Xuan Dynasty had forgotten him.

Originally, he intended to show off a little, but he didn’t expect to end up lifting a stone only to drop it on his own foot.

Jiu E was extremely regretful. If he failed to negotiate a peace agreement and couldn’t bring General Hei Shu back, Wang Neng would skin him alive.

But seeing people constantly approaching to toast the Emperor, it was obviously inappropriate to speak up at this moment. So he decided to wait for a more suitable opportunity.

Yang Ruxin was considered the biggest winner this time, but she also had some regrets, namely that Zou Qiuyue didn’t show up, for reasons unknown.

Although it was a bit difficult to plant someone into the Gu Family, those few boys were watching, and perhaps there would be a clue once they went out.

However, without the woman’s presence, Gu Sheng wouldn’t make any moves here. Without moves, they couldn’t slap faces; it was indeed a pity to miss such an opportunity today.

”General Gu.” At this moment, Prince Qi Jinghao came over, ”Madam Gu.”

”Your Highness, Prince Han.” Gu Qingheng cupped his fists in salute.

”The radish is indeed delicious,” Qi Jinghao nodded, ”However, I have a favor to ask Madam Gu, if it is possible?”

Gu Qingheng glanced at Yang Ruxin: ”Your Highness is too polite. If my wife can help, she will do so without hesitation.” But if it’s too tricky, then, sorry, she can’t help.

”Alas.” Qi Jinghao sighed, ”It’s about my princess, she’s been in poor health for a long time, so I’d like to ask Madam Gu to take a look. Over the years, she’s seen many doctors, but her condition hasn’t improved...”

”Certainly.” Yang Ruxin nodded, ”Though my skills may not be proficient, at that time...”

”No worries, it’s still our slim hope,” Qi Jinghao smiled. ”Let’s say a couple of days from now, I will bring Xiongxiong to visit...” After saying this, he drank all the wine in his hand.

”The princess’s health is poor? How come I’ve never heard of it?” Yang Ruxin asked after Prince Han left.

Gu Qingheng also shook his head: ”Indeed, I’ve never heard. However, it is true that the princess seldom makes public appearances.”

The rest of the banquet went smoothly.

But, as Hen Ziyue had said, it was quite interesting at first, but over time it became boring, and tiring, as one couldn’t eat or drink as they pleased, and even sitting required maintaining a proper posture.

And more importantly, the food was unsatisfactory.

First of all, the quantity was pitifully small. Each small table in front of the guests first had a plate of fruit, then two plates of snacks, each containing four pieces the size of an egg. The cold dishes included a plate of cold lotus root slices and a plate of candied dates; the main course consisted of one meat dish, one vegetable dish, one soup, and a bowl of rice.

For those with slightly larger appetites, this amount wasn’t even enough to fill the gaps between their teeth.
