After I disguised myself as a man, I became everyone's white moonlight
Chapter 59 Now I have another beauty
Chu Xi thought that Zhou Jialiang was referring to her cousin, but because this person had an unpredictable temperament, she and him had different values, and the other party was destined to be her future opponent, she did not explain.
But Zhou Jialiang didn't seem to intend to let Chu Xi go so easily. He didn't mind her coldness and continued talking to himself.
"Your Highness is truly blessed. You have a princess before you, a cousin after you, and now you have a beautiful lady."
Chu Xi frowned slightly. Anyone with good hearing could hear such an obvious hint.
Tang Yuhuai was heading towards Chu Xi's side. When he heard Zhou Jialiang's words, he paused and almost slipped in shock.
Rong Qingzhu's hearing was not as good as Tang Yuhuai's, so he didn't hear what Zhou Jialiang said, but he vaguely noticed that Chu Qibai was abnormal.
Chu Xi quickly calmed down and turned to Rong Qingzhu and the others without thinking, "Let's go."
The footsteps were a little hurried, as if something was chasing him from behind.
He was so scared that he didn't want to stay here any longer.
Tang Yuhuai...felt a little guilty. At that time, he was cheering for Qi Bai crazily from the bottom. Who would have thought that this arena was not for a martial arts competition, but actually... a martial arts competition to win a bride.
This kind of thing happened to them. Qi Bai's luck with love is really too good.
Chu Xi wanted to leave immediately, but some people would not let her go so easily.
Although the three of them had just returned to Beijing today and knew nothing, they were accidentally provoked by the people of Western Chu and ended up on this stage.
But the result is here. The family that set up this martial arts competition to find a bride will naturally have to fulfill the news they released.
Zhou Jialiang originally wanted to see the excitement between Western Chu and people from outside the Great Wall, but unexpectedly he saw something even more exciting. Naturally, he would not leave.
"Don't be in such a hurry to leave, sir. Aren't you curious about what's going on in this arena?" The middle-aged male butler on the stage raised his voice to stop him.
Rong Qingzhu felt that the person behind the stage should not be ordinary. Just the manager standing on the stage spoke and acted in a very methodical manner. What he was afraid of was that... he was from an official family.
Although Qi Bai did not mean it and was not aware of the rules, he was afraid that the owner of the arena would not listen to Qi Bai's explanation.
A woman in riding clothes jumped down from the second floor. Although she was dressed as a man, she could still be recognized at a glance.
She first landed on the stage, and then with a little more strength, she flew in front of Chu Xi and the other two, blocking their way.
"Prince Chu, now that you have won the competition, are you planning to just walk away and refuse to acknowledge your victory?" The woman had a heroic and beautiful appearance. Although she did not have the typical gentle and tender appearance, she had her own charm.
She did not look like the ladies from the capital; her skin was more wheat-colored, as if she had been exposed to the sun for many years at the border.
When Tang Yuhuai saw the woman, he was stunned for a moment, then quickly recognized her... This was the Duke of Weiguo, the legitimate granddaughter of the Seventh Prince's maternal grandfather.
She is also the seventh prince's cousin.
The son of the Duke of Weiguo was sent to garrison in Xijiang for five years. The rotation should have happened last month. They happened to be in Yunzhou, and the son of the Duke of Weiguo and his family returned to Beijing.
The reason why Tang Yuhuai recognized the granddaughter of the Duke of Weiguo was that their two families lived on the same street, but one was at the entrance and the other was in the middle.
They were both military generals and had played together when they were young.
However, this legitimate son of the Duke of Wei had to travel to various places for rotation all year round, and he didn't stay in Beijing for long. Tang Yuhuai's impression of this childhood playmate was still in his childhood...
"Jiang Zhenyao, why is it you?" Tang Yuhuai was extremely surprised.
Chu Xi was not familiar with the people in front of her, but she still had an impression of Jiang Zhenyao and the other three, because...she was the cousin of the seventh prince.
In the novel, he appears frequently beside the Seventh Prince and part of the plot unfolds because of the two of them.
The Seventh Prince does not love Jiang Zhenyao, but his mother wants her son to marry Jiang Zhenyao as his principal wife, so that the Jiang family will be more loyal and help them win the throne.
But in fact, the Jiang family had no legitimate daughter, and the one who entered the palace as a concubine was the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, who was a half-sister of the father of Jiang Zhenyao who was now going to take over the title.
In the novel, Jiang Zhenyao's father was unwilling to participate in the fight for the throne, and had no intention of supporting the seventh prince.
After some struggle, the Seventh Prince was ready to give up his marriage and marry Jiang Zhenyao as his wife, but Jiang Zhenyao did not agree.
"Why can't it be me?" Jiang Zhenyao laughed, "This martial arts competition is set up for me to find a future husband. Since Prince Chu has won this competition, he will be my husband."
Rong Qingzhu seemed to be shocked by Jiang Zhenyao's straightforward words. Although the Great Zhou was an open-minded country with no restrictions on conversation between men and women, this was the first time that he had heard such straightforward words from a young lady.
Tang Yuhuai coughed, glanced at Chu Xi who was being forced to marry, and whispered, "Qi Bai, we can't help you with this."
Chu Xi really didn't expect that his luck was so good. He was tricked by the system and got an extra... "wife" when he fought in the ring.
[484, why don’t I remember this scene in the novel? ]
[We are only responsible for checking the important plot points, and other minor plots are not our responsibility. ]
Chu Xi, "..." She could see that this system didn't care about the plot at all. It would just deal with it perfunctorily on the surface.
"Ms. Jiang, I didn't mean to disrupt your son-in-law competition. It's my fault. I will come to your house to apologize someday." Chu Xi apologized in a proper manner.
"There's no need to come and apologize. I will only open the door if you come and propose to me." Jiang Zhenyao smiled generously and said something shocking.
Although her appearance is not as noble and bright as the Ninth Princess, her unique personality adds a bit of special brilliance to her.
Her appearance is neutral and heroic, and coupled with her confident and proud personality, she is a rare sight.
Chu Xi, "..." She thought that even though she had modern thinking, she was not as open-minded as this person who dared to speak and act.
In fact, she did not see love in Jiang Zhenyao's eyes, but only saw interest and curiosity in her eyes.
Unless, she intends to use herself as a shield to reject the Seventh Prince.
Jiang Zhenyao is one of the women who impressed her in the novel.
It's like a woman who has awakened prematurely and is fighting against an inappropriate era.
There is not much description of Jiang Zhenyao in the later part of the novel. The main theme of the novel is still centered on the fight for succession. Jiang Zhenyao refused to marry the Seventh Prince, and with the support of the Duke's Mansion, she did not receive much cold treatment.
Instead, she followed her father to the border again. After the battle broke out, the author never wrote about Jiang Zhenyao again.
"I have no intention of getting married for the time being, and I dare not delay Miss Jiang." Chu Xi did not want to drag others into the water, nor did he want to be a shield for others.
"You haven't even spent time with me, so how do you know that you're definitely wasting my time?" Jiang Zhenyao smiled, she was definitely the first person in the capital to dare to say this.
