Chapter 912 The Empress
Prince Xingnan lost twenty-one horses and returned to his seat dejectedly.
The other party was a little girl, and he couldn't compete with her in riding and shooting. He was embarrassed to say it.
Gu Xin returned to her seat with some regret. Alas, there were only twenty-one horses. Brother Yuanyuan would have had three hundred men to become a regimental captain. It would be great if she had won three hundred horses!
Suddenly, Princess Xingnan stood up and clasped her fists at the emperor and empress: "Your Majesty, empress, I heard that the noble lady of Zhou Dynasty is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and I would like to ask for advice."
When the princess spoke, the emperor didn't bother to pay attention to her, otherwise he would be accused of bullying the little girl.
Empress Xue answered: "I have heard that Xingnan women are as proficient in riding, shooting, singing and dancing as men. Please don't place bets when asking for advice on piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Otherwise, people will say that I, Dazhou, bullied Xingnan."
After a pause, Empress Xue said again: "Your Majesty, are you right? Although Prince Xingnan is as noble as the princess, if there is a bet in this chess, calligraphy and painting, then we are really bullying others, so we should not set it." Got it!"
The emperor held Empress Xue's hand with an affectionate look on his face: "The empress is absolutely right!"
Cai Xiaolian was about to laugh out loud. These two couples were trying to trick people together, and they also said that men and women were equal. In the end, the prince set the bet, but the princess did not. Isn't this intentional?
You also said that you bullied others. Aren't you provoking others to play chess, calligraphy and painting?
The first emperor of Xingnan did not come from Dazhou. He was still a civil servant. How could he teach his descendants to play music, chess, calligraphy and painting?
Sure enough, Princess Xingnan was excited and said: "Your Majesty and the Queen have considered Xingnan, so I would like to thank you in advance on behalf of Xingnan. However, Xingnan's chess, calligraphy and painting are not bad at all, and he may not necessarily lose to Dazhou! Your Majesty and Is it possible for the Queen to select people and place bets?"
Before the emperor and Empress Xue could answer, Princess Xingnan pointed at Gu Xin: "I want to play piano and paint with the youngest daughter of the No. 1 scholar's family! If I win, I don't want anything but her war horse that my brother lost to. "
Gu Xin didn't say anything. She also learned the piano and painting from her parents, but she couldn't compare with others!
The other person looks to be the same age as my sister. What if she goes from elementary school to high school?
Gu Shouxin asked: "May I ask how the princess compares?"
Gu Xin looked at Gu Shouxin in surprise, Dad, my daughter has only studied for two years! You can't cheat your daughter!
Princess Xingnan saw the look in Gu Xin's eyes and felt confident: "Qin, let's play together, whoever stops first loses! Whoever draws more similar characters wins."
Empress Xue said: "Qin is good at winning or losing, but how about this painting?"
Princess Xingnan: "There will be ten people from Dazhou and ten from Xingnan. I will paint together with Miss Gu, without writing their names, and let these twenty people leave the hall while we are painting, and then come in to comment after the painting, how about that? Can I I guarantee that the ten people in Xingnan will be absolutely fair."
Gu Xin's eyes moved and he asked, "If there are ten people each, who will win?"
If you want to say this kind of comparison, you really can't compare with me. I can only talk about a few songs, and there is one song specifically for fighting songs, hehe~
Gu Shouxin: "How about comparing time? If there are ten people each, whoever draws faster will win?"
Princess Xingnan hesitated: "Okay!"
Gu Xin blinked: "Your Highness Princess, you just said what should I do if you won, but not what if you lost?"
Princess Xingnan: "Huh! This princess will never lose. If I lose, you can say whatever you want, as long as I have this princess! Everyone present can testify!"
Gu Xin asked: "Can you make the decision about your horse?"
