Marry a Duke

Chapter 166 No sense of proportion

The key is that her fighting power is not good enough and she cannot defeat the guards around Ruhui.

Qiao'er, who could protect her today, did not come with her.

She couldn't guarantee that Wei Xuan and Bi'an would rescue her in time. If there was any mistake, she might not be able to survive Ruhui's third crazy assassination attempt.

As he was talking, the downstairs was already in chaos.

Princess Lianxing has finished her painting. The snow on the plum blossoms looks just like the real thing. One can almost smell the fragrance of the plum blossoms and feel the whiteness and coldness of the snow. People standing by praising her.

Even that was shocking.

It turns out that there is someone who can paint so realistically. He is a soldier and it is rare for him to see such detailed work.

The customs and folkways of Daliang are quite different from those of Dayue.

Life over there is never that meticulous.

He was just about to praise Lianxing for her good painting.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, a hand suddenly appeared, snatched Liande's painting, and tore it to pieces in the blink of an eye.

"Hmph, you still have to bring out this kind of thing to embarrass yourself." Ruhui's eyes were full of contempt for Lianxing.

Lian Xing moved her lips, said nothing, and looked towards the second floor.

From her position, she couldn't see the people sitting on the second floor.

Fu Ran quietly peeked out and met Lian Xing's eyes.

Fu Ran immediately shrank back, and Lian Xing also withdrew her gaze.

She was very sure that the woman was the wife of Duke Weiguo. It seemed that Duke Weiguo had brought his wife here today for other arrangements.

"Ruhui, what are you doing?" Lianxing acted like an elder. "Sifang Pavilion can accommodate all kinds of culture, regardless of good or bad. No one is bad forever. As long as you study, you can become good. I worked hard to draw this painting. Why do you tear it up? Is this the rule your mother taught you?"

When it comes to ***, Ruhui's eyes are filled with anger.

"How dare you mention my mother?"

Lian Xing looked very indifferent, but under Ruhui's coercion, she seemed petite and pitiful, and in dire need of protection.

"Ruhui, *** is my sister. What's wrong with me mentioning my own sister? Besides, you should call me aunt." The real Princess Lianxing and *** have the same father but different mothers.

But there are many children in the royal family.

Usually, children born from the same mother are closer.

"You are not worthy of it. She is just the daughter of a lowly palace maid." Ruhui's eyes did not show any pity at all. "That's right, the one standing in front of you is just the daughter of the lowest palace maid in the palace and the late emperor. Her mother died when she was born, and she was sent to the temple to practice. Don't be fooled by her innocent appearance."

How could Ruhui allow Lianxing to compete with her like this?

She didn't think Lianxing could stand against her at all.

She had completely forgotten that she had never fought with Fu Ran, whom she looked down upon before.

Now Fu Ran is still in the position of Lady of the Duke of Weiguo that she wanted.

Lian Xing, at least in terms of status, is more presentable than most people.

After all, she is the daughter of the late emperor.

Seeing how cruel Ruhui was, they really felt sorry for Lianxing.

There is no shortage of women with Hui's temperament in Daliang, as she is a talented and beautiful woman who also holds the status of a princess.

So, in his heart, he prefers the Lianxing type.

"Princess Ruhui is too overbearing. Princess Lianxing has never offended you, but you tore up her painting as soon as you arrived. This prince saw her draw it stroke by stroke with my own eyes. Everyone present saw it. Princess Lianxing's attainments in calligraphy and painting are extraordinary. How come it sounds wrong when it comes to the princess's mouth?" Nadu's words made Princess Ruhui lose face.

Seeing this, Chang Ying immediately stopped Ruhui's rising anger.

"Princess, that's already a preconceived idea. Don't let him feel sorry for Lianxing even more." If he is disliked by Nadu, everything that *** wants to control next will not be so easy.

How could Ruhui swallow this?

"No, I can't bear it."

"You have to endure it even if you can't. Don't forget ***'s instructions."

Ruhui gritted her teeth. Her mother had indeed told her before she left that she must not complicate the matter.

Wei Xuan wanted Lian Xing to marry Nadu.

*** wants Ruhui to marry Nadu.

Each of them has their own competition.

***It is impossible for him to lose to Wei Xuan.

The last time something happened to the Huo family, it was Wei Xuan who was involved.

During the time when Huo Nanfeng was imprisoned, he sent all his capable men to Shouzhou. Now he has taken over Shouzhou and plans to mine silver in the name of the court.

*** was furious and thought that the opportunity to look for the emperor again had been missed.

Ruhui swallowed her anger and didn't vent her anger, "Nadu, don't be fooled by her pitiful appearance."

"Ruhui, I am your elder after all. How can you slander me again and again?" Lian Xing's eyes turned red slightly, but the corners of her lips were slightly pursed, showing great strength.

It makes me feel sad just looking at it.

Such a beauty makes people want to protect her.

Lord Guo stood in front of Princess Ruhui.

"The princess came here at this time, but she missed the three trials. Princess Lianxing won the first two of these three trials. No matter what happens in the third trial, the winner of the first two trials is Princess Lianxing."

Lord Guo announced it in public.

The Sifang Pavilion Master announced it again.

When everyone learned that it was Princess Lianxing who won the first two games, they were all shocked.

According to legend, it has been some time since the fifth princess returned home. People talk about it as a joke after dinner and no one takes it seriously.

What will happen if a princess who was sent away just after she was born comes back?

Her mother died early and the late emperor has passed away.

She returned to Beijing without any support.

I didn't expect that Princess Lianxing, who is beautiful, talented, and has a good personality, is not like Princess Ruhui, who is domineering and tough from the beginning.

Princess Lianxing is right.

She is Ruhui’s elder.

Not only literati come to Sifang Pavilion, but also people from all walks of life, who come here to exchange ideas.

There are not only people from Dayue, but also merchants and tourists passing through the border countries.

Everyone began to accuse Ruhui of being domineering and unreasonable, and completely lacking the demeanor of a royal princess.

Comparing the two, Ruhui is the one who brought shame to Dayue.

"Shut up, everyone." How could Ruhui tolerate being talked about behind people's backs? She was about to curse, but Chang Ying saw that the situation was about to get out of control and immediately asked Ruhui to go back first.

"Princess, let's go first. If we stay, things may get out of control." Chang Ying also had a headache. She never expected that the princess would get into trouble so quickly.

The princess rushed forward two steps, she was only two steps slower.

The princess impulsively tore up Princess Lianxing's painting.

This is the first step to a big mistake. One wrong step will lead to all the wrong steps.

"Princess Lianxing, please don't blame me. The princess is still young and innocent, so she is quite straightforward. I will let my husband have a good talk with the princess later. Prince Nadu, please don't be offended. My husband is planning to invite Prince Nadu to our house for tea and talk about the customs and culture of Daliang. Please do me the honor of coming." Chang Ying said.

They all narrowed their eyes and looked at Ruhui.

He was absolutely unwilling to marry this woman.

but--

He had no reason to refuse Otsuki's invitation.

"Please report back to ***, this prince is very happy to do so."
