Chapter 252 252 Lip Print (first update)

Andaman smiled magnanimously, spoke generously, and smiled considerately: "There is no rush. I just want to say hello to His Highness King Chen. I will stay in the capital for a while, so I can appreciate the prosperity of the capital and feast my eyes on it." ”

When the other party said this, Gu Nanzhao immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Please wait for the good news."

It was the first time for Gu Nanzhao to take on such an errand involving the two countries. He did not seek merit, but sought no faults. As long as he was not blamed by his father, he would be satisfied.

"Then let's go." Andaman took the reins from the attendant and got on the horse.

Gu Nanzhao and others also got on their horses one after another, and the group of people rode on Chang'an Avenue, not in a hurry, and at a leisurely pace.

The streets of the capital city are lined with shops and busy with traffic. You can hear the enthusiastic shouts of vendors everywhere, and it is bustling and bustling.

While driving his horse, Andaman said to Gu Nanzhao casually: "It's rare that His Highness King Chen went to Hao Kingdom last month. It coincided with the enthronement of our emperor and he was busy with government affairs, so he couldn't meet him and entertain him. I gave him a warm welcome. The emperor always feels sorry for me when he comes."

"His Royal Highness Chen Wang has returned to Beijing safely, and I am relieved."

"I just hope that His Majesty the Emperor of Da Qi and His Highness King Chen will not think that our Hao Kingdom does not understand etiquette and does not treat guests well."

Andaman seemed to be chatting with Gu Nanzhao, but in fact, there was an almost undetectable expectation in his eyes as he looked at Gu Nanzhao.

Gu Nanzhao didn't pay attention and looked embarrassed. He couldn't help but think of the unhappy incident between the emperor and the prince because Gu Jue returned to Beijing.

But of course he couldn't talk about these things to envoys from other countries. Gu Nanzhao smiled and replied politely: "Uncle Nine Emperors has a broad mind, and the prince does not need to worry about it."

Andaman hoped that Gu Nanzhao could tell what King Chen reported about Hao Kingdom when he returned to Beijing to meet the Holy Queen, especially whether Uhagalou was dead or alive.

Unexpectedly, what he was waiting for was such a high-sounding polite speech. He felt secretly annoyed, but still had a generous smile on his face: "That's good! That's good!"

"When I see His Highness King Chen another day, I will personally apologize on behalf of my emperor."

Andaman said these few words as if Gu Nanzhao would definitely let him see Gu Jue.

Gu Nanzhao was a little embarrassed and replied vaguely: "There should be a chance."

He still looked gentle and elegant on the outside, with his thin lips pursed slightly.

Andaman actually saw Gu Nanzhao's dilemma, and exchanged glances with the two people traveling with him tacitly.

If nothing else, at least the rumors are true. The Emperor of Qi and Chen Wang Gu Jue are really at odds. This may be an opportunity for their Hao country. This marriage between the two countries should be successful in all likelihood!

Gu Nanzhao was absent-minded and couldn't help but glance in the direction of Prince Chen's Mansion.

Prince Chen's Mansion is on the next street, only a hundred feet away from here. I don't know what Sister Chen is doing now...

Every time he thought of Chu Qianchen, Gu Nanzhao felt sour in his heart.

On the contrary, Chu Qianchen was in a very happy mood now.

At this moment, she was in the racecourse of Prince Chen's Mansion, surrounded by horses. Chu Yunmu and Chu Yunyi were also there, and they couldn't bear to blink.

"They are so beautiful!" Chu Yunmu's phoenix eyes had turned into sparkling star eyes, looking at the nine horses in front of him with burning eyes.

These nine horses of different colors are all tall and strong, with strong muscles and bones, strong and powerful lines, and bright eyes. Their shiny fur shines in the sun, like pieces of silk.

"Sister, which one do you like?" Chu Yunmu circled around the horses, feeling that the rumored emperor's draft girls were nothing more than that.

Gu Jue stood leisurely and said with a smile: "Pick slowly."

These nine horses were specially sent by Gu Jue and asked Chu Qianchen to choose a horse she liked.

Jueying snorted disdainfully at the side, thinking that these horses were nothing more than that, and compared with it, they were far behind.

Chu Qianchen seemed to read its mind, and touched Jueying's slender neck, and praised without hesitation: "Of course you are the best!"

The black horse with white hooves was tall and strong. Chu Qianchen was only a head taller than the horse's back. When the man and the horse stood together, she looked particularly petite.

Being comforted by her, Jueying let out a happy sound.

Chu Qianchen also knew a little bit about the art of horse-reading. After looking around, he picked out a mare that was about one year old. It had a red coat, long and thick eyelashes like a fan, and soft and smooth temples. The hair hangs down on the back, looking elegant and delicate.

In the sunlight, the red horse shimmered like a ruby.

The docile temperament of the female horse makes it more suitable for women than the violent male horse.

Chu Qianchen skillfully fed it a piece of candy, and the red horse happily flicked its long tail twice, showing a hint of intimacy.

"So good!" Chu Qianchen touched it gently.

Gu Jue handed the reins to her hand, "Have you thought of a name yet?"

"Yes." Chu Qianchen picked up a red maple leaf, held it between his fingers and turned it around casually, "My lord, what do you think of the name 'Maple Dew'?"

"Okay." Gu Jue curled his lips and smiled, "It is worthy of the name."

Chu Qianchen felt the same way. He got on the horse with simple and neat movements and a heroic appearance.

Maple dew is as sweet as honey, and this little mare's temperament is obviously much sweeter than Jueying's.

Chu Qianchen pursed her lips and smiled, her lips as curved as a crescent moon. She remembered that she had put in a lot of effort when she took over Jueying in her previous life. How could she be as obedient as Maple Lu!

"This horse must be a **** horse." Chu Yunyi said with certainty, with the same envy as Chu Yunmu written on his face.

Gu Jue could obviously see the fascination of the two boys and said, "You two should each choose one."

Chu Yunyi: "..."

Chu Yunmu: "..."

Chu Yunmu couldn't believe his ears and pointed at himself excitedly: "Brother-in-law, do you want to give me a horse?"

He was so happy that his voice broke even when he spoke. The look of surprise made Chu Yunyi twitch the corner of his mouth, feeling that this stupid brother was really embarrassing.

Chu Yunmu had already rushed over to pick his horse. Chu Yunyi, who stayed where he was, cleared his throat and said dryly to Gu Jue: "Thank you, brother-in-law!"

These nine horses can be said to be fat and thin, each with its own merits. They were collected from all over the country. Some are sweaty horses from Dawan Kingdom, some are Liaodong horses from Liaodong, some are northwest horses from the northwest, and there are also Xiongnu horses with excellent endurance. …

Moreover, each horse is a rare and unique horse, just like a collection of rare treasures from all over the world, which are rare to find!

Chu Yunmu was so light that she almost flew up. After running half a circle around the horse, she "flyed" back again and said with great joy: "Brother-in-law, you are so kind!"

"..." Chu Yunyi felt in his heart that this little kid was so unprincipled. It was clear that before Chu Qianchen got married, the little kid didn't want to see his second brother-in-law. Now he is just like a little follower, called brother-in-law. It was so intimate.

Chu Yunmu had been staring at these horses for a while when Chu Qianchen picked the horses, so he picked them up very quickly now.

After a while, he asked Jingfeng to help him bring a black horse over, pointed at it and said: "That's it! Doesn't it look like Jueying? It's almost like Jueying's younger brother."

Later, when he and his brother-in-law went out riding together, others would know that they were from the same family!

Chu Yunmu began to think happily in her heart.

The three Chu siblings tried the horses, picked the horses, and teased the horses. Gu Jue had nothing to do, so he went to sit in the pavilion next to him.

After the tea was served, Cheng Linhua came quickly, walked into the pavilion, and said to Gu Jue: "Your Majesty, during the morning court today, the envoy from the Hao Kingdom came, and it was the uncle of the puppet emperor Wuhaduluo. Brother, the King of Andaman."

Gu Jue, who was sitting at the stone table, said "Oh" absentmindedly and looked at Chu Qianchen in front of him.

Chu Qianchen rode on the red horse and drove the red horse to run and have fun on the racecourse, cultivating mutual understanding.

The red riding attire on her body and the red horse complement each other perfectly, like a red lightning galloping in the field...

Seeing this scene, Chu Yunmu couldn't hold it any longer, and asked Jingfeng to help him hold the horse, and also climbed on the horse's back. He was so young that he didn't dare to let him ride by himself. He held the reins tightly and led him for a walk in the field.

Chu Yunyi also picked his horse, but the white horse he picked was obviously more arrogant. Chu Yunyi pulled the reins several times, but it turned its head and ignored him.

Outside the pavilion, the sounds of people and horses are mixed together, and it is full of life; inside the pavilion, the atmosphere is quiet, as if there are two worlds.

Cheng Linhua lowered his head with a respectful look and continued: "Andaman went to the Jinluan Palace to meet the emperor. He then proposed to the emperor on behalf of the pseudo-emperor of the Hao Kingdom and proposed to marry the three princesses for the current prince of the Hao Kingdom..."

At this time, Chu Qianchen, who had been riding in a circle on Fenglu, galloped toward Gu Jue with a clear purpose and began to slow down.

The girl's slender figure rises and falls with the galloping horse. Her expression and posture are relaxed and comfortable, as if she is integrated with the red horse under her crotch.

She had her hair combed into a high ponytail again today, which was the same as the hairstyle she wore in Gaolingzhuang a few days ago. It was also the hair style Gu Jue had combed this morning. At this moment, when she was riding her horse, her long ponytail and the red silk ribbon that bound her hair were flying in the wind. She was dressed in bright clothes and angry with her horse, looking heroic.

Looking at the girl approaching outside the pavilion, Gu Jue didn't pay attention to what else Cheng Linhua said, and formed a picture in his mind.

He suddenly thought about what kind of birthday gift he would give her.

Gu Jue's brows were as soft as water.

Chu Qianchen also heard about Nan Hao's envoy. He stopped his horse, frowned, and asked Cheng Linhua casually: "Then the emperor agreed?"

"Not yet." Cheng Linhua shook his head, "The emperor asked the second prince to entertain envoy Nan Hao first."

Cheng Linhua looked at Chu Qianchen with complicated eyes, mixed with wonder and admiration.

In the past, the emperor would have asked the prince to entertain Nan Hao's envoys, but this time he chose the second prince instead.

Just like what the princess said, the emperor really wanted to raise the gu and let the princes fight!

The princess has a keen sense of government affairs, unlike ordinary women who stay at home.

Gu Jue secretly ordered Cheng Linhua: "Have someone tell the next door."

"Next door" of course refers to Wuhajia Tower.

Cheng Linhua retreated, Chu Qianchen dismounted, handed the reins to Jiang Yuan, and also entered the pavilion and sat down.

Hu Bo wanted to serve tea to the two masters, but when she saw Gu Jue pouring tea for Chu Qianchen himself, she silently retreated outside the pavilion.

Chu Qianchen looked at Gu Jue with pleasure. His movements in pouring tea were much better than hers. His movements were casual yet elegant, and he had a comfortable and contented demeanor.

The prince is so handsome!

Chu Qianchen picked up the tea, took a sip slowly, and asked: "Your Majesty, will the third princess marry Nan Hao?"

She took a sip of tea and put down the cup again, her thoughts turning with the sound of tea being poured.

Chu Qianhuang was right again. Once the marriage between the two countries was decided, Chu Qianhuang, who was the princess's companion, could justifiably marry the third princess and go to Nanhao.

If once was a coincidence and twice was a coincidence, then the third time was not a coincidence, but a certain necessity. Chu Qianhuang knew too many things that she shouldn't know.

Gu Jue nodded: "Nine times out of ten."

"..." Chu Qianchen took the tea cup from Gu Jue and drank absently.

Leaving aside Wuhejialou, the new crown prince of the Hao Kingdom is the heir apparent. In the emperor's view, only by marrying the legitimate princess can the relationship between the two countries be stabilized. Moreover, the next Hao Emperor will have the blood of the Daqi royal family. The emperor Will definitely be tempted.

The emperor has always been in favor of the marriage between the two countries, but Wuhejialou was too cold and the emperor had a strong self-esteem, so he didn't want to mention it again.

In the previous life, the third princess also married away to Nan Hao, and that was all Chu Qianchen knew.

She didn't know whether the three princesses in the previous life survived Nanhao's coup after the restoration of Wuhejialou. Like many princesses by marriage in history, no one cared about what happened to them after they married away and went to other countries. .

Chu Qianchen was so immersed in his thoughts that he didn't notice that the first cup of tea he drank was hers.

Gu Jue lowered his eyes and stared at the teacup in his hand. There was a faint lipstick mark on the rim of the cup, like pink petals.

Gu Jue raised his hand and picked up the teacup with only half a cup of tea left, and brought it to his lips. The teacup blocked the corners of his slightly raised lips.
