Chapter 452 I have a worse idea
Chapter 452 I have a more evil idea
Gu Qianning was sitting next to Shen Wantang. She was in a very bad mood and had no intention of writing poems or sending flowers.
But when Xiao Qingyuan walked over, he walked straight past Shen Wantang. She came to her senses almost instantly and stretched out her foot to trip him.
Xiao Qingyuan staggered and almost fell. He turned back angrily: "Gu Qianning, what are you doing?!"
Gu Qianning's expression was cold: "I just want to remind Prince Xiao that your princess is sitting here, you walked by."
"I'm not blind. I can see her sitting there. Do I need you to remind me?"
"You're not blind, but you're still walking forward? Where are you going? Who are you giving the flowers to?"
"Of course I want to give it to the person who writes the best poetry!"
"Isn't Atang the best writer?"
"What do you know? Among the women, Miss Liu is the best at writing poetry. She is the most talented woman in Dafeng. Do you have any objection?"
Gu Qianning was so angry at him that she couldn't speak for a moment. Why didn't she realize that Xiao Qingyuan was so annoying before?
Since her good sisters had all stood up for her, Shen Wantang naturally couldn't continue to pretend that she saw nothing.
She said in a self-deprecating tone, "When the prince was at home, he said he admired Miss Liu's talent. It makes sense for him to give her the flowers now. However, I just made a bet with An Ning that the prince would definitely give the flowers to me. I didn't expect that I lost."
As soon as Shen Wantang said this, the people in the Imperial Garden suddenly had different expressions. Some looked at Xiao Qingyuan in shock, while others looked at Liu Nanshi with a hint of sarcasm.
Liu Nanshi immediately said, "The Queen Mother set the question today, and everyone won the flower based on their own ability. The prince wanted to give the flower to me just because he thought my poem was good, and it has nothing to do with anything else."
"It's understandable that the Crown Prince's wife wants to win the flower by relying on the affection between husband and wife. After all, the poem is just average, so she can only rely on affection."
"Prince, please give your flowers to your Crown Princess. Don't let her get none. That would be too pitiful. You should at least consider your relationship and stop being so righteous!"
But the more she said this, the more Xiao Qingyuan was unwilling to give the flowers to Shen Wantang. What kind of relationship do they have as husband and wife? Not at all! He and Liu Nanshi have a relationship as close friends!
"Nan Shi."
Xiao Qingyuan unconsciously called Liu Nanshi's name affectionately: "I'll give you this flower. I give flowers not based on feelings, but on facts. Shen Wantang's poems are far worse than yours. You deserve this flower!"
"Thank you for your praise, Your Highness. I like my poems very much and I am very confident. Even if Your Highness does not give me the peony in your hand, others will give me a lot. I will definitely win that peony!"
Liu Nanshi smiled and said, "But your Crown Prince's Consort is different. Without your flower, she would not be able to get any. That's why she wants your flower so much. Give it to her. I don't want it!"
"Whether she can get the flower depends on her own ability. If the poem she writes is not good, naturally no one will give it to her. I am a person who likes to seek truth from facts, so you must accept this flower of mine!"
Two people are going back and forth, one says no, the other says you have to have it, one insists not to want it, the other insists on giving it.
Everyone's eyes almost popped out of their heads as they watched. They were all whispering to each other, covering their faces with handkerchiefs.
"What do you mean? Are Prince Xiao and Miss Liu going to be together? Why is he still calling Miss Liu by her maiden name?"
"Impossible! Prince Xiao already has a princess consort, so it's impossible for Liu Nanshi to be Prince Xiao's concubine!"
"Could it be that Prince Xiao wants to divorce his wife again?"
"Ah? What do you mean again?"
"Oh, don't you know? Prince Xiao wanted to divorce the Crown Prince's Consort for a concubine, and later he wanted to divorce her for a maid. Anyway, he wants to divorce her every day!"
"I heard that Prince Xiao has already kicked his concubine out of the palace. The most romantic man in our capital has fallen in love with someone else. He must have fallen in love with Liu Nanshi!"
"This is not surprising. Liu Nanshi is the most talented woman and a perfect match for Prince Xiao. In my opinion, that princess is not worthy of Prince Xiao at all!"
"Whether she is worthy or not is not up to us to decide. She was personally chosen by Princess Ning, and Prince Ning also praises this daughter-in-law everywhere. If you don't have some real skills, how can you win over such picky people like Prince Ning and Princess Ning?"
……
While everyone was discussing, Gu Qianhan kicked Yuan Zheng and said, "Give your flowers to Shen Wantang."
Yuan Zheng didn't care about the pain in his calf from being kicked. He looked at Gu Qianhan in shock: "Why do you want me to give it to her?"
"Just do it if I ask you to. Stop talking nonsense! Otherwise, I'll break one of your legs!"
"Okay, okay, I'll give it to you. I'll give it to you. But what about you? Who are you going to give your flowers to?"
"Of course it's Shen Wantang."
"What?! Are you going to steal Qing Yuan's woman again? This one is different. This one is his legal wife, not one of those concubines or maids! You better restrain yourself a little!"
"Am I crazy? Why would I snatch a woman that Xiao Qingyuan doesn't like? Wouldn't that just help him solve his problems? Am I such a kind person?"
Yuan Zheng nodded in agreement: "That's right, you really don't have any good intentions, you are just a black heart, black lungs and black intestines!"
Gu Qianhan said indifferently: "I just don't like Xiao Qingyuan and want to make him look bad in public."
Yuan Zheng looked at Xiao Qingyuan, then at the pretentious Liu Nanshi. He immediately became excited at the thought of embarrassing the two of them. "Okay! I'll listen to you! But, it's not enough for the two of us to give the flowers to the Crown Prince's Consort. I have an even more evil idea!"
Gu Qianhan glanced at him. Yuan Zheng was uneducated, but he had a lot of bad intentions. Even he said that his idea was bad, so it must be very bad.
Yuan Zheng smiled maliciously, turned around and walked back.
After a while, he came back and gave Gu Qianhan a thumbs up: "Second Master Gu, your reputation is really useful! Wait and see the fun!"
Gu Qianhan had already guessed what he had done, so this time he didn't care about Yuan Zheng using his name. As long as the goal could be achieved, the means were not important.
On the other side, the tussle between Xiao Qingyuan and Liu Nanshi finally came to a conclusion - Liu Nanshi finally accepted the flowers from Xiao Qingyuan.
Because if she didn't accept it, there would be no way to end it.
People started looking at her in strange ways. Although she wanted all men to admire her and pursue her, she didn't want to ruin her reputation.
Of course she would never marry Xiao Qingyuan. She just wanted to keep him hanging and disgust Shen Wantang.
But today, it seems like he has gone a little too far, and Xiao Qingyuan seems to have fallen in love with her!
Liu Nanshi pinched the flower and a smile appeared on the corner of her lips.
