famous eldest daughter

Chapter 787 Edge
After the emperor finished speaking, Mo Jin's smiling eyes fell on Gu Yuqing, as if appreciating a work of art, looking down from her bun inch by inch, but not frivolously, only looking down to her chin. He paused for a moment, then moved up to meet her eyes.

While Mo Jin was sizing him up, Gu Yuqing looked straight at Mo Jin without moving her face, looking at the look in his eyes for a moment, with her chin slightly raised, showing some inviolable pride and nobility.

Seeing Gu Yuqing's attitude, Mo Jin's eyes were filled with surprise, and the smile on his lips became thicker, but his smile did not contain any warmth, "Chi Nanhou's beloved daughter is indeed different."

These words sounded like a compliment when heard, but they sounded malicious when thought about carefully.

Gu Yuqing's identity has been determined by His Majesty's imperial edict, and she is Xiao Yu's quasi-princess. As a prince of a foreign country, it would be extremely disrespectful and provocative for him to comment on the princess of this dynasty, even with just one sentence.

Gu Yuqing returned the gift with a faint smile and said lightly: "There are countless women like me in this dynasty. I am afraid that Your Highness will not be able to look at each one of them."

It's neither soft nor hard, give him a fight back.

There were all the guests, and those who heard the implication of Mo Jin's words, upon hearing Gu Yuqing's words, they immediately clapped their hearts and looked at Mo Jin with a hint of pride on their faces.

Mo Jin was rebuffed by Gu Yuqing, but there was not much excitement in his eyes. The smile on his lips was still the same, "If I say that I want to marry my younger brother and sister to His Highness the Fourth Highness, the two countries will get married. So good, what do you think, Miss Gu?"

Her gentle and jade-like tone was wrapped in words as sharp as a sharp knife.

Gu Yuqing just smiled and said, "Since Your Highness has said the word "if", it means that he will not give me the princess of your country to His Majesty the Fourth Highness, so why bother asking such tricky questions to embarrass me and at the same time wipe out Lose your sister’s face.”

As he spoke, Gu Yuqing cast a sympathetic glance at Mo Ling, "For a girl, the most important thing is her face, not to mention her status is so noble. Your Highness, in front of me, in front of all the civil and military officials and her family members, is like this You are joking about your own sister's marriage carelessly, and I feel very sad for your sister."

Gu Yuqing's voice, sweet and gentle, responded to Mo Jin's sharp words word by word and counterattacked.

Just when everyone thought that Gu Yuqing's retaliation was over, her tone suddenly changed, her voice was slightly harsh, and she glanced at Han Chaoen with a vague look, and said: "Taifu Han is the most virtuous and respected person in our court." This old minister is deeply favored by His Majesty, Taifu Han thinks that His Majesty the Seventh Highness asked this question, should I answer it or not?"

After saying that, Gu Yuqing looked at Han Chaoen with clear black and white eyes.

The emperor frowned slightly, wondering in his heart, how could Gu Yuqing suddenly lead the fire to Han Chaoen.

Gu Yuqing always behaves steadily and appropriately. He knows the importance and will never act without aim.

Could it be that Han Chaoen's repeated remonstrances caused Yu'er to go to Shaanxi... Thoughts passed, the emperor couldn't help laughing, but he was not angry.

What's more, he also wanted to hear how Han Chaoen would answer.

Han Chaoen was lowering his eyes and thinking about something when he was suddenly called by Gu Yuqing. He was stunned for a moment. His stunned eyes disappeared in a flash. He raised his eyes to look at Gu Yuqing, who already had a calm look on his face.

Although it was Gu Yuqing who asked the question, Han Chaoen, who has always been respectful, answered to the emperor, "The old minister thought that what Miss Gu said was right, and besides, it was His Majesty who asked the question first, but the Seventh Prince Canglan didn't." Answering His Majesty's question, but pointing the finger at Miss Gu, who has already engaged with the Fourth Highness, this behavior really makes the old minister feel that the Seventh Highness has malicious intentions."

If Gu Yuqing's words were a gentle counterattack, then Han Chaoen's words were as violent as a storm.

When Han Chaoen answered, Gu Yuqing's eyes never left his eyes from beginning to end.During the whole process, although he was facing the emperor, he glanced at Mo Jin before speaking, and after speaking, he glanced at Mo Jin again.

With one last glance away, he breathed out quietly.

At the same time, his hands placed on the table were tightly crossed, and his ten fingers, like iron tongs, clamped each other tightly.

Obviously...he was nervous.

If he didn't have something in his heart, in this situation, even if he was nervous because he was unexpectedly called out, he wouldn't be so nervous.

After what he wanted to verify was verified, Gu Yuqing no longer held on to Han Chaoen, but looked away at Mo Jin, shrugged his shoulders slightly, and said with a decent smile: "I wonder if the result that His Highness wanted has been achieved?"

Mo Jin had a look on his face that was asking for trouble, but he smiled. As he spoke loudly, he averted his eyes and turned to look at the emperor, "She is indeed the legitimate daughter of the all-powerful Marquis Chi Nan. She is different. I’m convinced by this sharp tongue!”

The emperor was naturally generous and smiled.

Mo Jin added: "This time, on my father's order, I brought my sister to your country. It was originally to express my condolences. But after what happened, I immediately sent a letter to my father to ask for advice. My father said that since you are the The country has no more queen, so let me ask Your Majesty if you would like to make my sister the new queen?"

As soon as his words came out, everyone in the audience, including the emperor, was shocked.

Gu Yuqing was even more stunned.

The Canglan Kingdom map is not Xiao Yu, but the emperor?

But... looking at Mo Ling's face that looked like Concubine Mei, Gu Yuqing felt something fishy. She took a deep breath, suppressed the huge shock in her heart, and looked at Concubine Hui.

Concubine Hui indicated with her eyes and nodded slightly, but her face remained calm.

Gu Yuqing couldn't help but be surprised. Even the emperor had a look of surprise on his face, but Concubine Hui learned about it in advance?

The strange feeling in my heart became even stronger.

Calmly thinking, he raised his eyes to look at the emperor.

After being surprised, the emperor looked sideways at Mo Ling. He stared at her face for a moment, then took a breath and looked at Mo Jin again, with a silent question in his eyes.

Mo Jin immediately said: "My father has always wanted to have a good relationship with your country. He was delayed due to many affairs before. This time it happened to be the Queen's matter, but it gave my sister a chance. I just didn't know. Will Your Majesty grant her this favor?"

Mo Jin kept his posture extremely low, as if Canglan Country was not a big country standing side by side with our dynasty but a vassal country.

Mo Ling, on the other hand, blushed as Mo Jin finished speaking. She glanced at the emperor shyly and affectionately, then quickly lowered her head, holding a silk handkerchief in her hand and twisting it around on her fingers.

This accident came too suddenly, and the originally quiet hall immediately burst into discussions with a bang.

Mo Jin and Mo Ling stared at the emperor for a moment. Gu Yuqing's mind was turning over and over again, thinking about what Mo Jin wanted, when suddenly there was a movement in his heart, like lightning, and he suddenly cast his eyes on Han Chaoen.

Sure enough... Han Chaoen's eyes were looking at the emperor with anxiety and expectation.
