After Gu Huiyan's words came out, the entire waterside pavilion fell silent, and only the sound of gurgling water outside could be heard.
The people from Prince Zhao's Mansion came out reluctantly and said, "It's our young prince."
Gu Huiyan's eyes were sharp and his voice hinted at the power of Lei Jun: "Let him speak for himself."
Little Prince Zhao stood up from behind the servant and said in an inaudible voice: "It's me." After saying that, he muttered nonchalantly: "Didn't she fall? Who asked her to stop her? Watch the dragon boat with me."
"You haven't realized your mistake until now." Gu Huiyan looked at him coldly, "You inherited your father's throne at a young age. I used to pity you for losing your father when you were young, and I didn't discipline you very much. You, now it seems, have actually harmed you and allowed you to be so lawless."
The King of Yan is the leader of all the kings. Even the former King of Zhao stood here and did not dare to raise his head when being lectured by the King of Yan, let alone a nine-year-old child named Prince Zhao. Gu Huiyan had gone through several battles, and he had the aura he had gained from being among the dead. When he saw Gu Huiyan's arrogant and cold eyes, he was so frightened that Prince Zhao burst into tears. The cry of the nine-year-old child was sharp and loud, and everyone's ears hurt from being pricked, but King Yan was standing here. No one dared to move, not even the slaves of Prince Zhao's Mansion dared to coax their little ancestor.
The children's shrill cries echoed through the waterside pavilion. Princess Zhao hurried over and heard her son's cries from afar. Her heart was almost broken. She pushed away everyone and rushed to her son, hugged her life tightly, and cried: "Son, you have been weak since you were a child. Who has wronged you and made you cry like this? It's a pity that your father died early. , leaving only us orphans and widowed mothers, and we have nowhere to say anything when we are bullied..."
Gu Huiyan had a headache. He could scold his nephew, scold King Zhao, and even teach the emperor with a calm face. But what could he say to his young widowed sister-in-law?
Princess Zhao was still sobbing and crying. With his mother's support, Prince Zhao gradually turned from crying to roaring, feeling very confident.
Gu Huiyan could only restrain his momentum and talk about things without personal emotions: "Even if he is young, he cannot ignore human ethics and etiquette. What's more, he is not young either. He is already nine years old. He is old enough to understand etiquette and law. At that time. He was pushing someone on a high platform, but fortunately nothing happened. What should I do if an accident occurs? At such a young age, he disregards human life and is the only one who respects himself. If he is not disciplined now, when he grows up, will he raise a bully who cares about human life?"
When Princess Zhao heard that Gu Huiyan said this about her son, her heart collapsed and she cried even more sharply: "Why did King Yan say this to my son? He was just having fun and accidentally bumped into someone who didn't even have a grade. The wife of a foreign minister is about to be buried and cursed by King Yan like this. What a waste of common people, looking down on human life. King Yan wants to force us orphans and widowed mothers to death! My son lost his father at a young age. He has been sick and prone to disasters since he was a child. Our bodies are weak and we are just trying to survive. Unexpectedly, we still made King Yan unhappy. It is unlucky for me to be a widow anywhere. I will go and ask the Queen Mother for orders and return to Zhao tomorrow!"
Princess Zhao was crying and seeking death, and the people around her quickly stopped her and tried to persuade her with nice words. Princess Zhao was still crying. She didn't look at her son who was fat and strong. How could he look weak?
Gu Huiyan clasped one hand behind his back, his face calm, but his eyes hid great power. When Shen Mingda saw this, he quickly came out and bowed and said: "I have thanked King Yan on behalf of my wife. My wife is fine. Since the young prince didn't mean it, let's forget it."
Shen Mingda said this because he didn’t want Gu Huiyan and Prince Zhao’s family to get into trouble. Princess Zhao immediately understood the reason and said, “It’s just children playing around, and nothing happened anyway, so why bother to go online? It scares my son.” Cried."
As expected, naughty children are born from naughty parents. With Princess Zhao like her, it is not surprising that the young prince can push people on the edge of a high platform. Gu Huiyan thought that the young prince was the only bloodline of King Zhao after all, so he couldn't bear it anymore and tried to persuade him: "A loving mother often loses her son. If you indulge him like this, you may harm him in the future."
Princess Zhao hated to hear other people say bad things about her son. She hugged her son and gave Gu Huiyan a look with a sharp voice: "Prince Yan can't see whether our Prince Zhao's house is good or not, why don't you say anything bad about my son?"
Everyone in Prince Yan's Mansion became angry upon hearing this, staring at Princess Zhao with blazing eyes. Princess Zhao shrank and immediately wanted to cry again: "My lord, why did you leave us orphans and widows? You shed your blood for the royal family and died guarding the borderlands, but the rest of the royal family did not For your favor, even if you die, you will still be mean to your only son. This is the only bloodline in our Prince Zhao family! My lord, I can’t stand you, so I might as well die..."
Gu Huiyan had a headache from crying and waved his hand to Gu Mingda and others to step back and not be rude to King Zhao's widow. Seeing this, Princess Zhao was secretly proud, hugged her son and went out. The people from Prince Yan's Mansion were left in Shuixie, furious. It was not for his own good that King Yan taught Prince Zhao a lesson, but he ended up being ruined and even being arranged by Princess Zhao!
Gu Chengyao's face turned pale and he turned to look at Gu Huiyan: "Father..."
Gao Ran also frowned and took two steps closer, his eyes showing sincerity: "Father, Princess Zhao said this because she was angry. Don't take it to heart."
Gu Huiyan did not want to lose his temper with a woman. He waved his hand to indicate that there was no need to say anything more. Lin Weixi suddenly turned around and said to Gu Huiyan: "Your Highness, King Yan, I'm feeling stuffy. Let's go out and get some air."
Before Gu Huiyan could reply, Lin Weixi walked out quickly.
The few people who stayed in the waterside pavilion were stunned for a moment, and then heard a clear voice from outside: "Princess Zhao, stay."
"Princess Zhao, stay."
Princess Zhao stopped in confusion. When she turned around and saw Lin Weixi, she didn't care and looked impatient: "Who are you? You dare to call me Princess?"
"In terms of status, I am definitely not as good as the princess, but when it comes to being a human being, I am still more qualified than Princess Zhao. I have called you down this time to teach you how to be a human being and raise children."
"Bold!"
"The princess is standing here confidently now, just because nothing happened. If the young prince really pushes someone off the stage today, there is such deep water under the stage, and Lady Liu is still pregnant with Liujia. If there is a slight mistake, it will be One corpse and two lives. Those are pregnant women and unborn children. If you kill these two people, the princess and the young prince should accumulate some virtue for their own families. Aren't they afraid of retribution on their descendants in the future?"
When it comes to retribution for heirs in a clan society, this is a very serious and harsh word. Princess Zhao immediately became furious: "You are so presumptuous! Who are you? I must punish you for the crime of disrespect!"
"Speaking of disrespect, I'm not sure who is plotting evil. The young prince was standing behind a group of female relatives, and not far away was the eldest princess Shoukang. Prince Zhao secretly pushed her, who knew who it was? It’s not that I originally wanted to push the princess or someone else, but I accidentally admitted the wrong person, so I let Lady Liu suffer on her behalf. If the princess wants to go to the Queen Mother for judgment, we can go together so that the Queen Mother can judge what your son wants to do."
Princess Zhao was at a loss for words. This matter was ultimately her son's fault. She could mess around with Prince Yan, but when she got to Queen Mother Qian, it was Prince Zhao's house who couldn't stand it. Lin Weixi was sure that Princess Zhao would not dare to make trouble in front of the Queen Mother, so she ridiculed her so unscrupulously.
But even so, Princess Zhao couldn't swallow this breath. She looked at Lin Weixi and sneered: "Do you think that if you don't tell your name, I can't find out who you are? Just wait for now. Ming The Japanese princess will make you regret your mistake and come to Prince Zhao’s Mansion crying to plead guilty.”
"Sure." Lin Weixi folded his hands in front of him, tilted his head slightly towards Princess Zhao, and smiled coquettishly, "What does Princess Zhao plan to do to me or my family? No. Excuse me, Princess, to go check it out, but I can’t help but tell you directly, my name is Lin Weixi, my mother has passed away many years ago, and my father is Lin Yong, the loyal and brave prince. Like the former Prince Zhao, he also sacrificed his life for the country and died on the battlefield. If the Princess wants to find someone to trick her, Recruit, you don’t need to hire too many people, I’m the only one left in the family, it’s enough to come after me. When the princess takes action, I will go to Jing Zhaoyin to beat the drum and complain, saying that the Zhao Palace oppressed the martyr’s daughter. When the time comes, Let’s see who the people’s support is.”
"You..." Princess Zhao pointed her finger at Lin Wei Xi angrily, gritting her teeth with hatred, "Do you think I can't do anything to you like this?"
"I don't dare, I learned it from the princess. The princess can use the name of dying in the war to run against King Yan, and I can also use my identity to run against you. Princess Zhao is an orphan and a widowed mother, and I am also a martyr and orphan. The princess is not the favorite Is it pitiful to be sold miserably? Coincidentally, I am too."
Princess Zhao gritted her teeth and looked at Lin Wei Xi, almost biting her silver teeth into pieces. Finally, she glared at Lin Wei Xi fiercely and walked away with all her strength. Lin Weixi watched Princess Zhao and the boy who took advantage of his youth to do evil go away. He sneered and said directly to the backs of everyone in the Zhao Palace: "Prince Yan is disciplining Prince Zhao for his own good, Princess." If you really love your son, you should take him to apologize to the Shen family and King Yan, and discipline him strictly in the future, instead of helping others to do evil like this. If not, sooner or later these evil things will come back to you."
Princess Zhao hated to hear other people talking about her son. She stopped and looked back. She could feel the poison in her eyes from a distance. At this time, Gu Mingda walked to Lin Weixi and bowed respectfully: "Lin Girl, it’s windy outside, it’s time to go back.”
This was King Yan's calm but unchallenged statement. He could just use the deceased as an excuse to use it on him. But if you want to touch Lin Weixi, don't blame him for being ruthless.
Princess Zhao understood Gu Huiyan's silent intimidation, and she could only stamp her feet in anger and leave bitterly.
Lin Weixi won a great victory. She breathed into the green water pool and hummed softly: "Sure enough, after I came out for some air, my chest tightness improved immediately. This kind of person deserves to be scolded. Let's go back to the house."
Lin Weixi turned around, and across the winding water corridor, she saw Gu Huiyan and his people standing opposite. Lin Weixi was embarrassed, but still pretended as if nothing happened, and walked back along the winding corridor with a calm expression.
Although the place where Lin Weixi and Princess Zhao were talking was a little far away from the waterside pavilion, thanks to the quiet surroundings, even if it was not clear, they could still hear a general outline of the conversation. Gu Huiyan watched Lin Weixi walking in the corridor. She lowered her eyes slightly, her movements were obedient, and she could not see the way she had just shown her teeth and claws.
Shen Mingda was now filled with a sense of disillusionment. If King Yan hadn't been standing here, he would have thought he was hallucinating. When he saw Lin Wei Xi's delicate and pretty appearance, he originally thought she was a weak beauty, but what did he hear just now? Gu Huiyan smiled slightly, whether talking to himself or to the people around him: "If the person being targeted is not me, it would be quite enjoyable to listen to her lecture."
If Zhou Maocheng must have the same feeling here, Gu Chengyao thought for a while and nodded silently.
The conversation between Princess Zhao and Lin Weixi could be vaguely heard even in the waterside pavilion. Liu Sumiang looked shocked and admired, while Gao Ran stood aside, feeling very uncomfortable.
She is the daughter-in-law of the palace. King Yan was harassed by a shrew, and it was not her who chased him out, but an outsider.
Gao Ran twisted the handkerchief hard. If she had to do it over again, she would definitely not give it to Lin Weixi.
When things got so bad, Liu Sumiang was not in the mood to watch the dragon boat. The **** from the emperor's side had come to urge him several times. Gu Huiyan couldn't refuse anymore and was about to leave. Gao Ran also took advantage of the opportunity to retire and returned to his female relatives to continue socializing in Prince Yan's palace. Lin Weixi, an idler with nothing to do, stayed with Liu Sumiang.
The two of them sat for a while, and Shen Mingda went to the front to apply for leave, and then came to take Liu Sumiang home. Liu Sumiang reluctantly said goodbye to Lin Weixi. Lin Weixi watched Shen Mingda carefully help Liu Sumiang away. The infinite tenderness could be seen just from their backs. She was the only one left in the water pavilion. Lin Weixi continued to sit and sighed long into the silent air.
After a while, it started to rain. Wan Xing looked anxious: "Girl, we didn't bring an umbrella, what should we do?"
Lin Weixi looked at the continuous line of rain outside the window and said indifferently: "What can I do, just wait. King Yan will not leave me here."
As soon as he finished speaking, footsteps came from the corner, the umbrella gradually raised, and the face of the visitor gradually appeared in front of Lin Weixi with the sound of pattering rain.
This is Gu Chengyao.
