The emperor's sons are all good-looking, tall and handsome, but they have different temperaments. Among them, the one with the most terrifying aura was Prince Heng. Although he did not do anything special, he just stood there and the air currents around him seemed to be surrounding him.
Considering that this prince had personally been on the battlefield, Gu Mingmou was not surprised. She turned her head and glanced at Prince Heng, but she didn't expect that he was also looking at her. When their eyes met, she realized that the man actually had double pupils.
When her mother was a child, her mother also told her the legend of double pupils, saying that people born with double pupils are likely to bring disasters in wars. People with double pupils in the past and present are almost the heroes of troubled times or the founding emperors of the country.
Isn't he an emperor? Now it seems that each of these princes has a chance to sit on the throne. Prince Heng has the lowest possibility, but he is the final winner.
Gu Mingmou looked away and stopped looking at him. At this time, Princess Xin'an has already set the rules of the game. Each of the ten dancers will be ranked, and the four princes and the six female guests will draw lots. Whichever number is drawn, the lottery will go to whomever.
There were seven female guests in total, and there happened to be one more. Gu Mingmou stood aside knowingly, and she was not qualified to participate due to her status. But at this time, Anyang Princess Shen Ying suddenly said, "Miss Gu is also from Xin'an." Please give my place to the guest you invited."
She looked at Gu Mingmou with a smile. Gu Mingmou was stunned, always feeling that Princess Anyang's attitude towards her was a bit strange.
As soon as Shen Ying spoke her words, Princess Xin'an did not object. Instead, Zhao Xiwan looked at her with a half-smile, which made Gu Mingmou feel uneasy.
Although she didn't know who was designing her, she had no choice from the moment she boarded the ship.
"It's okay to ask her to replace you, but can she get the lottery prize?" Although the lottery prizes of the other five people are just personal belongings, their identities are valuable after all, and what they take with them is priceless. Naturally, Gu Mingmou does not have this confidence.
"Since Miss Gu is taking my place, I will be responsible for her winnings." Shen Ying said with a smile.
"This is against the rules. Once Miss Gu wins, who will get the winnings?" Princess Xin'an rejected Shen Ying's proposal. He looked at her for a few times and then said: "If Miss Gu can't come up with any decent prizes, just take out a random one."
Just a personal item. "
Daqing is waiting for her here. If she really gambles with someone with a personal item, and if she loses and asks someone to take it away, her reputation will be lost. Even if she wins, as long as it is spread that she even takes out her personal belongings in order to bet with others, it will still destroy her.
Gu Mingmou maintained a slight smile on her face and took out a jade pendant from her purse. The piece of warm jade given by Qi Lang was hung around her neck. It was considered a personal item. Princess Xin'an said this even if she wanted to take it off. After doing so, the other piece that barely qualified was the Xue family heirloom jade pendant given to her by her mother.
"It turns out to be a piece of black jade. This Hongqin must be natural. It's such a wonderful workmanship." As soon as the jade pendant was taken out, everyone's mouths were immediately blocked. Shen Ying stepped forward, picked up the jade pendant, put it in her hand and looked at it carefully for a long time, and couldn't help but sigh.
Unable to stump Gu Mingmou, Princess Xin'an snorted softly and threw the jade pendant into the tray in the maid's hand, putting it together with the other lottery prizes.
Compared with the longan-sized Dongzhu or the golden jade bracelet that the female guest brought out, the princes had more kinds of prizes. The eldest prince Prince Yong’s prize was naturally Yue Suqin, which Princess Qiyang had been coveting for a long time. The third prince, Prince Xun, took a three-color jade carving of Fortune, Luxu and Shou, the fourth prince, Prince Heng, pressed a dagger inlaid with sapphire, and the fifth prince took a five thousand tael silver note very directly.
This move of the fifth prince made several other princes twitch. This uncle's family is an imperial merchant, and his behavior and behavior are exactly the same as his uncle who is obsessed with money. Fortunately, we have grown up together and have long been used to it. It's just that It's a bit embarrassing after all for outsiders to see.
The lottery is ready, the ten dancers have arrived at the bow, and the boat is ready. They wait for them to get on, and then send the people a hundred meters away so they can see clearly. This was Princess Xin'an's suggestion, and no one thought there was anything wrong with it.
Gu Mingmou drew No. 8. She glanced at the person she had drawn. Her face was pale and her eyes were red. She probably never thought in her dreams that she might die in Jinghu Lake today.
Without looking at anything else, you can guess the final outcome just by looking at her expression of collapse. If she hadn't taken out the piece of black jade, even if she couldn't bear to see Mingmou, she wouldn't have been in the limelight, but she would never let others get the family heirloom jade pendant, so she was destined to offend many people today.
"Girl." Gu Mingmou walked to her wrist
In front of the dancing girl who had a wooden sign with the character "eight" hanging on it, she suddenly called out to her.
The dancing girl raised her head and their eyes met.
"You must swim up." She said softly, her tone as ethereal as a puff of smoke drifting away in the wind.
"Yes..." The dancer's eyes were confused for a moment, and she blinked in confusion until Gu Mingmou left.
Prince Heng, who was looking towards the bow of the ship, also saw this scene. He frowned and reached out to press his left eye. At that moment, something seemed to prick his eye.
"It seems that Miss Gu really wants to win." Shen Ying stood on the cabin on the second floor and looked down, her narrow phoenix eyes flickering with light.
"Ha, it's faster to dream, and it doesn't matter who she is, I don't know what she means." Princess Xin'an snorted beside her.
"Don't get angry with her. I'm afraid she won't appear in such an occasion again."
"Speaking of which, it's all thanks to Bai Yixin. Without her posts, it would be difficult to call people over. I thought she had a good relationship with the Gu sisters, but I didn't expect that she is also cruel." I glanced at the person following Jingyang County. Bai Yixin, Princess Xin'an next to her, curled her lips.
"Let's go, the royal brothers have gone down, let's go down and have a look too." Shen Ying walked lightly, swaying. What does Gu Mingmou's life and death have to do with her? Besides, although Xin'an acted a little recklessly, he would not kill anyone.
As Princess Qiyang said before, Miss Gu and Qi Lang are indeed not a good match. If that's the case, then why bother each other
After thinking about it, she glanced at the four cousins in front of her. In Xin'an's style, she didn't know which one was cheaper in the end. She thought that the four emperor brothers had little chance.
Even though several singers were trembling with fear, no one dared to refuse when they were asked to get on the boat. We could only get on the boat one by one and let the two boats row a hundred meters away.
In addition to the five singers on each boat, there are two other tall and strong guards, one rowing the boat and the other guarding the people on the boat.
It was estimated that the distance was almost the same, and the two boats stopped. When the gong sounded on the cruise ship here, some of the singers on the boat jumped off on their own, while others were so frightened that they cried and were pushed off by the guards on the boat.
After a while, ten people fell into the water like dumplings.
