After the divorce, the reborn emperor seduced me into his arms

"The King of Qi actually gave Yan Er a jade pendant?"

"And was rejected by Yan Er?"

"Not only was the King of Qi not angry, but he also sent someone to Jiangnan to bring back the blood jade for Yan Er?"

Countless thoughts instantly popped up in the minds of the noble ladies, and they all looked at Yan Qing at the same time, with jealousy in their eyes almost overflowing.

Someone said sarcastically, "How dare a slut like you get close to the King of Qi? Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself?"

"Why would the King of Qi fall for her?"

"Yes, wasn't Yan Qing just abandoned by Prince Lu?"

"She must have seduced the King of Qi. Bah! Shameless!"

Because the banquet was held at the Duke's Mansion, there were especially many people coming today, and almost all the noble ladies in Kyoto were here.

At this moment, Yan Qing became the public enemy of all the noble ladies, and her already bad reputation became even worse.

She looked at King Qi with an ugly expression.

This disgusting thing!

As despicable as Lu Qiaonan!

If a woman with a fragile heart were to be discussed like this in a crowd right after her divorce, she would probably be so ashamed that she would wish to die. But at this time, if the instigator showed concern at the right time, she would feel like a drowning person finding a piece of driftwood. Not only would she not blame him, but she would be grateful to him!

Sure enough, the King of Qi saw the noble ladies discussing Yan Qing, and immediately stretched out his hand and made a "hushing" gesture to the ladies.

"Everyone, please don't misunderstand Miss Yan Er."

He looked at Yan Qing tenderly, his eyes full of affection: "It is this prince who has deep respect for Miss Yan Er, not that she seduced me. Please do not slander her."

Yan Qing turned his head away and rolled his eyes.

It happened to be seen by King Li.

Prince Li rolled his eyes and suddenly stepped forward and said, "I also got a piece of fine jade a few days ago. If Miss Yan doesn't mind, I will have it delivered to your house right away."

Everyone was stunned.

Why does Prince Li also like Yan Er?

The King of Qi looked at the King of Li coldly and reminded him, "Brother, that piece of jade you prepared for the princess, right?"

This is to remind Prince Li that he has a queen.

Prince Li smiled and said, "My princess is very generous. She would be delighted to see Miss Yan Er. Maybe we could even become sisters."

This was to tell the King of Qi that although he had a principal wife, the position of concubine was still vacant.

Prince Li was not stupid. In his opinion, Prince Qi's behavior was just to get the military power of the General's Mansion. Prince Li had previously thought about getting the support of the General's Mansion by marrying Yan Qing, but unfortunately, she had been engaged to someone with the surname Lu since she was a child.

He was just one step slower, and the man surnamed Lu was recruited by the King of Qi.

God knows how happy he was when he learned that Yan Qing and Lu Qiaonan had divorced. He even invited all his staff to drink all night!

The King of Qi tried his best but ended up with nothing.

Nothing could make him happier than this!

Now that Prince Qi is trying to win Miss Yan's heart, Prince Li will naturally want to intervene...

Outside the crowd.

Seeing that Prince Qi and Prince Li were courting Yan Qing, Gu Huaizhou's face turned green.

He really needs to restore his identity as soon as possible.

or--

Let Qingqing be branded with his mark as soon as possible!

Prince Jing covered his lips with his fan and whispered gloatingly into his ear, "Ziyuan, it seems your cousin is very popular. The eldest and second brothers are about to fight. Alas, poor Ziyuan..."

"My Lord, why are you still here?"

Gu Huaizhou looked at Prince Jing expressionlessly: "Prince Qi and Prince Li both know that they should show their courtesy to my cousin, Your Highness, why are you still standing here?"

?

Prince Jing's mind was full of questions: "I don't like Yan Er!"

Gu Huaizhou: "Is this a question of liking?"

Prince Jing: “…isn’t it?”

"No."

Gu Huaizhou said firmly: "This is a problem with the brain!"

Prince Jing: “???”

Gu Huaizhou analyzed it to him seriously: "Your Highness, have you ever thought about why you are a chaste man but still no noble lady is attracted to you? And the Prince of Qi and Prince Li are still attracted to noble ladies even though their house is full of concubines?

It's because they are all working hard on something, and you are standing here making sarcastic remarks. If you are not lonely, who is lonely? "

Prince Jing frowned and thought for a moment, then nodded: "Ziyuan, you have a point."

He was indeed always at odds with his older brothers, so his father always scolded him for not being enterprising, and even his mother asked him to learn from his older brothers.

Thinking of this, Prince Jing grabbed the jade from his waist and said, "Alright, then I'll get involved too!"

"and many more!"

Gu Huaizhou took out a piece of black jade from his arms: "Use mine."

"why?"

"The quality of the jade your Highness has is not good."

The man said calmly, "No match for the King of Qi and the King of Li."

Prince Jing looked at the jade in Huaizhou's hand, then looked at his own jade, and it seemed that his jade was indeed not very good-looking.

"Okay, then I'll use yours first."

He didn't care how Gu Huaizhou, a man with no background, had a jade ring of better quality than the prince's, and rushed over with the black jade.

"Second Miss Yan, come, come, take a look at this jade of mine!"

Prince Jing squeezed in front of Yan Qing, holding up the black jade in his hand and said, "This jade of mine is of better quality than Second Brother's blood jade, not to mention First Brother's, which is of an unknown variety and I haven't even seen it. Take a look. Do you want to choose this one?"

Everyone: "???"

Why is King Jing here too?

And why does it feel so much like a jade seller?

The noble ladies, who were originally filled with jealousy and anger because both Prince Qi and Prince Li wanted to give Yan Qing a jade pendant, suddenly felt complicated and had a strange feeling that was neither good nor bad.

Yan Qing also had mixed feelings.

But she recognized at a glance that the black jade belonged to Gu Huaizhou.

I saw Gu Huaizhou take it out and look at it when I was a child, but I never saw it again.

She looked at Gu Huaizhou across the crowd.

But he nodded slightly at her.

Yan Qing immediately understood that it was he who asked Prince Jing to rescue her.

In front of the princess's mansion, the two most prestigious princes in the court presented her with jade at the same time. If she refused to accept either of them, she would not only offend both the King of Qi and the King of Li, but she would also be scolded to death by their supporters.

Especially these noble ladies...

But Prince Jing suddenly interrupted and ruined the atmosphere, and then...

Yan Qing pursed her lips and smiled, "Thank you, Prince Jing. I really like this jade. I heard that Your Highness likes Liu Boqi's paintings. I happen to have one myself. How about giving it to Your Highness someday to pay for this jade?"

Prince Jing's eyes suddenly lit up: "Deal!"

Yan Qing then accepted the black jade and turned to the King of Qi and the King of Li, saying, "My apologies, my Lords. I have already accepted the jade from the King of Jing, so I will not be tempted to accept your favor. If you are truly in need, I will go home and scrape together some money to buy your jade, okay?"

Everyone: "..."

This Yan Er is really bold.

Not only did she prove that several princes were selling jade to her, she also ridiculed King Qi and King Li for having no money.

The King of Qi's expression changed instantly.

He stared at Yan Qing gloomily and threatened in a low voice: "Second Miss Yan, be careful not to accept my toast and you'll have to drink a penalty!"

Yan Qing seemed not to hear.

However, when Prince Li said with a smile, "Since Second Miss Yan doesn't like jade, then next time I will bring other good things for Second Miss Yan to appreciate..." Yan Qing immediately looked up and said, "Thank you, Prince Li."

The deliberately ignored King Qi: "!"

A sour face is even uglier.

Yan Qing still acted as if she didn't see him. She bowed to the three princes and went straight into the princess's mansion with her maid.

Among the noble ladies, there was a pair of eyes staring at Yan Qing.
