Chapter 735: What Is That?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Ruxue looked at Gu Chaoyan provocatively.
She was not sure whether Zhou Huaijin prepared anything for Gu Chaoyan, but she was sure about one thing. She had already asked the provocative question and caused a dilemma. If Gu Chaoyan denied the question, then both Gu Chaoyan and Lord Huai would be totally humiliated, but if Gu Chaoyan said yes, then she would still get humiliated when the mount was compared with her magical monster. All in all, they were going to be humiliated no matter what.
That was exactly what Gu Ruxue wanted to see.
When the question was asked, all the ladies participating in the Spring Hunt turned to Gu Chaoyan. Most of them were looking forward to seeing a show.
Gu Ruxue was the Princess Consort of Lord Ling, and the Phoenix Girl. She was definitely going to humiliate someone so that she could stand out. It was just good that she was focusing on Gu Chaoyan instead of the others.
The Second Lady of the Chu Family was especially excited. She said ironically after Gu Ruxue asked the question. “Lord Huai should have gotten a mount ready for you, hasn’t he? You are engaged and you are going to be the future Princess Consort of Lord Huai!”
After the banquet, Gu Ruxue had been taking special care of the Second Lady of the Chu Family, who was supporting Gu Ruxue no matter what after getting the attention from Gu Ruxue.
Gu Chaoyan glanced at those people. She smiled briefly, “The Spring Hunt is about getting the largest number of prey, but now it is a peaceful time, and the meaning of Spring Hunt is more about entertainment, one’s mount isn’t that important, is it?”
The moment Gu Chaoyan finished her words, the Second Lady of the Chu Family laughed wildly, “Honestly, future Princess Consort of Lord Huai, you can just say honestly that you don’t have a mount, okay? It is not humiliating that you are not as good as Princess Consort of Lord Ling. You don’t have to tell a story just to get yourself out of the situation. The Spring Hunt is entertainment, that’s true, but it is still a contest. We have to be careful about riding and shooting, so mounts are of course important.”
The Second Lady of the Chu Family was speaking as if the whole thing made sense.
Well, that was only because Gu Chaoyan was the only one here. The other day when Madame Min was present, she did not dare to say a thing at all.
The Second Lady of the Chu Family laughed. Then the other ladies who tried to suck up to Gu Ruxue also laughed.
However, there were still a few who did not follow suit.
Gu Chaoyan smiled briefly. She did not seem to care about what was going on right now.
Gu Ruxue looked at her ironically.
Gu Chaoyan said indifferently, “Whatever you say.”
“So Princess Consort, you really want to see my mount so much?” Gu Chaoyan asked casually.
“The Spring Hunt is around the corner, and you have to offer your things. We are in a good mood, and it is the best time to show the mounts.” Gu Ruxue was implicitly stressing that she wanted to see that.
Gu Chaoyan smiled. If that was the case… She could show her the mount.
Gu Chaoyan took out a jade flute hung around her waist and started to play the flute.
Gu Ruxue and the Second Lady of the Chu Family as well as the other ladies looked at Gu Chaoyan in confusion. It was just a mount, so why was she playing the flute for it? Could a jade flute work to get that thing?
The sound of the jade flute was very beautiful.
Everyone else at the Spring Hunt turned to her. For one moment, Gu Chaoyan received the most attention, but… The sound went on and on, yet nothing appeared.
Gu Ruxue could not help but laugh. “Honestly, Gu Chaoyan, don’t be silly, do you think a horse would show up just for your flute?”
Gu Chaoyan threw a look at her.
Then the Second Lady of the Chu Family shouted loudly. “What is that?”
