Who stipulates that talent must consist of reciting poems, composing poems, playing chess, calligraphy and painting?
Isn’t sword dancing a talent?
Li Jingyi said very righteously: "I am also betting with you. I bet that the emperor's sister-in-law can win. If you can beat the emperor's sister-in-law, I will give each of you a box of rouge from Yuncai Pavilion!"
The price of rouge at Yuncai Pavilion is not cheap, almost ten taels of silver per box.
This is just Li Jingyitian's bet.
Mrs. Xiangguo must support Gu Qingying and said with a smile: "In that case, I will also bet that Qingying will win. If Qingying loses, I will give each of you who participated in the bet a box of Yuncai Pavilion lipstick."
The ladies who were still hesitant and worried at first couldn't help it anymore.
Not to mention the temptation of Yuncai Pavilion's rouge and gouache, Gu Qingying's five hundred taels of silver alone was irresistible.
The most expensive jewelry for many ladies among them is less than ten taels of silver.
When Liu Xianglan was the first to present her jade bracelet, the ladies who followed her also began to present their own jewelry.
Countless jewelry were piled on Mrs. Xiangguo's table, and the maid carefully packed the jewelry into boxes.
Gu Qingying took out a handful of banknotes and put them on the table and said, "Don't say I fooled you, the banknotes are here, but the talent I want to show next needs to go outside."
Everyone wanted to watch the fun, so they followed Lu Qingying out.
Gu Qingying said: "Since we have said that each of us is the best at it, then you won't have any objection if I use my best talent! Don't let me show my talent and you won't admit it."
Liu Xianglan sneered in her heart, and took the lead to stand up and said: "Anything you are good at is considered talent."
Li Jingyi smiled, she already knew what Gu Qingying was going to do!
Mrs. Xiangguo leaned against Li Jingyi, saw Li Jingyi smiling, and whispered: "You seem to be very confident in Qingying?"
Li Jingyi said confidently: "Madam, just wait and see the good show!"
Gu Qingying muttered a few times to the maid. When the maid came back again, she was followed by three guards. One guard held a long sword in his hand, one held a long spear in his hand, and the last one held a long whip.
Many ladies and ladies gathered together to discuss.
It's really weird.
Mrs. Xiangguo asked in confusion: "Does Qingying's talent in performance have something to do with these weapons?"
Li Jingyi no longer concealed her voice and explained with a smile: "It's not about talent. What the Queen's Wife is best at is not playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, nor reciting poems and making pairs. What the Queen's Wife is best at is martial arts."
Gu Qingying took the long sword from the guard's hand, weighed it and said, "I said before that I have a bad relationship with Gu Lian'er. Do you believe what she said? Today I will show you my best talent."
After saying that, he took the sword and started dancing in the snow.
She knew how to dance with a sword, and everyone present was dumbfounded by this scene.
Mrs. Xiangguo cheered excitedly: "Okay!"
The ladies around also began to agree.
Liu Xianglan began to panic. She found that Gu Qingying's sword dance was really beautiful, which she couldn't deny even if she wanted to.
After finishing a set of sword dances, Lu Qingying did not rest, but started to play with a long whip.
She hadn't touched a whip for a long time, but the moment she got it, she found the feeling she had before.
The explosive sound of the long whip hitting the air was like being slapped on many people's hearts.
After Gu Qingying demonstrated another set of marksmanship with the spear, he threw the spear to the guard and walked up to Liu Xianglan with a smile: "Are you satisfied with the talent I just displayed?"
Where can anyone show off their talents like this? Liu Xianglan never dreamed that Gu Qingying would show off such talents.
The key is, she has never heard Gu Lian'er say that Gu Qingying can wield a knife and a gun!
She wanted to say she was dissatisfied against her will, but did they dare to refute Gu Qingying's talent?
If they refuted it and Lu Qingying asked them to show it, what would they do?
I thought that playing chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and composing could defeat Gu Qingying, but who would have thought that Gu Qingying directly showed off something that neither of them knew.
Liu Xianglan felt guilty when she met Gu Qingying's sharp eyes. She avoided Gu Qingying's sight and said: "Satisfied."
Gu Qingying walked up to Gu Lian'er again: "Are you convinced?"
Gu Lian'er screamed angrily, gritted her teeth and whispered, "Are you really going to embarrass the General's Mansion?"
First, Lu Qingying said that their relationship was not good in front of everyone, and now he directly slapped her in the face.
She didn't understand why Gu Qingying had changed so much. She had never seen Gu Qingying wielding a knife or a gun in the house before!
Why are you so proficient in everything now that you know it?
When Gu Qingying beat her up in the palace, she asked her mother when she got back. Her mother said that when she was a child, Gu Qingying often used knives and guns, but she didn't know anything about it later.
It can only be said that Gu Qingying is so good at hiding that she has never been exposed in these years.
Gu Qingying smiled coldly and said: "I have not lost the face of the General's Palace. It is you who has lost the face of the General's Palace from the beginning to the end. You are quite good at pretending outside!"
Gu Lian'er wanted to refute, but Gu Qingying walked up to Mrs. Xiangguo.
Gu Qingying said: "I heard that my aunt often helps refugees, so I asked my aunt to sell those jewelry and use the money in exchange to help the refugees."
She has no shortage of silver, but she doesn't even bother to ask for these ladies' jewelry.
Mrs. Xiangguo's face was full of smile: "You have indeed won this bet."
Some ladies were reluctant to part with the jewelry they gave, and could only watch helplessly as Mrs. Xiangguo asked someone to put the jewelry away, while the silver notes were returned to Lu Qingying.
Li Jingyi was very excited. She held Lu Qingying's arm and smiled: "I knew my sister would win."
Gu Qingying smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Miss Liu, for giving me the opportunity." After saying that, she looked at Liu Xianglan.
Liu Xianglan was so angry that she wanted to bite Gu Qingying to death.
She didn't dare do anything to Gu Qingying, after all, Gu Qingying was the Princess of Zhennan, but this incident was caused by Gu Lian'er, and her anger would definitely be directed at Gu Lian'er!
Gu Lian'er felt the stolen glances from all around her, and she always felt that these glances came from unkind people.
After this incident, some of the ladies present were obviously much more honest.
The lunch was quite enjoyable. After eating and drinking enough, Gu Qingying didn't want to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion anymore, so she and Li Jingyi said goodbye and left.
As soon as she got on the carriage, Li Jingyi laughed heartily: "I knew they were going to cause trouble a long time ago, but I didn't expect that they actually made trouble! The way they humiliated themselves is really funny."
Gu Qingying glanced at Li Jingyi helplessly and said, "It's still at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion. You still have to pay attention to your image."
She was also very happy in her heart, being able to make these people miserable was happier than anything else.
When he thought of Gu Lian'er's extremely dark face, he sneered and said, "I'm afraid Gu Lian'er will not have a good life."
Liu Xianglan and Zhu Keyuan are not good quarrels. Their status is higher than that of Gu Lian'er. This time, Gu Lian'er will definitely be blamed for the failure of several people.
