Chapter 180: Marrying the Princess (13)
"So that's how it is. Miss Chen is really something. She made us wrongly accuse the princess."
"To be honest, it's not a big deal to be rich. I'm afraid it will be difficult to be a boatman in the future."
Chen Caiyun approached Gu Yuxi and his servant, pointed at them and shouted, "She pushed Princess Qingcheng, this is a fact...ah!"
thump!
Because the stone floor was covered with moss, Chen Caiyun fell flat on her face. Cuihong explained, "Stop talking nonsense here. It was obviously Princess Qingcheng who fell down. Now, Miss Chen, you also know why Princess Qingcheng fell down, right?"
"This mossy road is slippery, so be careful and don't tell everyone that I pushed someone. After all, I didn't touch you this time!"
Li Qingcheng stepped back, but Chen Caiyun stood up, staggered, and pulled her, causing her to lose balance, and the two fell together again.
"Cousin, it's not me this time. It's Miss Chen who pulled you."
"Help me up quickly."
Li Qingcheng stared at Chen Caiyun with resentment. This idiot had made her lose face today.
"Cousin, you are joking. It is indeed not your fault."
"Apologize. After all, my boatman can't wait."
"apologize?"
"What? Cousin, you are a well-educated and talented woman. You knew it was a misunderstanding, but you still verbally attacked me just now. Of course you need to apologize."
Now that Li Qingcheng knew that Gu Yuxi was involved in that incident, how could she possibly apologize? Not cutting Gu Yuxi into pieces was already a act of mercy on her part.
"Hurry up, the boatman is about to leave."
"Cousin, I..."
Gu Yuxi was planning to make Li Qingcheng fall again, but a man who was ruining the mood came and yelled at Gu Yuxi: "Princess Yuxi, don't go too far."
"Oh! So you are the son of a great scholar. My cousin and I were just catching up on the past, and you popped up all of a sudden. It was really unexpected."
"Who are you asking to apologize? It's obviously you who doesn't know how to be humble, so how can it be Princess Qingcheng's fault?"
"I spent the money, who should I give it to? Since you said you want to give it to me, Master Wei, why don't you give your money to me?"
"You're vulgar?"
"This scholar is different. He is quite good at moral blackmail. If others don't give, they are ignorant of etiquette. If you, a scholar, suffer a loss, it means I am rude."
"Isn't it just to invite these ladies to take a boat? I can afford it. I'll send three boats. Anyone who wants to get on a flower boat can get on."
The woman on the shore who was attracted to Wei Chenyang came over quickly and boarded the flower boat, while Gu Yuxi said sarcastically, "Master Wei, you have invited so many people, please don't forget me."
"You paid for it yourself and you're sitting on your own seat. Princess Yuxi wouldn't want to get it for free, right?"
"How is this considered freeloading? It's an invitation if you invite one person, and it's also an invitation if you invite more than one person. It won't kill you to have one more person, so don't be so petty."
"Then Princess Yuxi, you should be more generous and invite a few more people, right?"
"I don't have any money. Who told you, Mr. Wei, to have so much money and be so stupid?"
Wei Chenyang was immediately furious and pointed at Gu Yuxi, but he didn't dare to curse him, after all, it was disrespectful.
"Gu Yuxi, don't be so proud. Don't call me stupid and rich. Don't say the grapes are sour when you can't eat them."
Gu Yuxi shouted, "Master Wei, please take the flower boat. It's free. First come, first served."
Li Qingcheng said to Wei Chenyang: "Mr. Wei, this matter is my fault and has nothing to do with my cousin."
"Princess, is it true that she is bullying you again? Such a savage and willful woman is really annoying."
Gu Yuxi boarded the flower boat and said to those people, "Stop talking. The public has sharp eyes. I didn't bully my cousin. If you guys are short of money, I will pay you."
"No need."
"Cousin, we are just friends... So, boatman, start the boat!"
Watching Wei Chenyang and others board a flower boat, Gu Yuxi was thinking about how to solve the problem of Li Qingcheng's halo. After all, as long as this thing was there, something would happen to that cheap sister sooner or later.
Cuihong said angrily, "Princess, Chen Caiyun is too much. She always quarrels with us. Her reputation is worse than yours."
Gu Yuxi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Cuihong, am I that bad? Compare me with Chen Caiyun."
"I was wrong. That Chen Caiyun cannot compare to you."
"Cuihong, how's your martial arts training going these days?"
"Master, please forgive me. Luo Feng is a vicious guy. I'm afraid he will beat me to death with one punch."
Gu Yuxi held a bunch of grapes and said angrily: "Liu Xiang can bear it, so you better not embarrass yourself. Does Luo Feng want money to be your master?"
"but I……"
"You go practice tomorrow, practice every day, and refusal will be useless."
Cuihong had a sad face and glared at Liuxiang. They had agreed to slack off together, but she actually practiced secretly, causing her to fall far behind. Her master was even angry.
Just as Gu Yuxi closed her eyes to rest, the irritable voice in her ear came again: "Princess Yuxi, your boat is not very fast."
"Be careful, haste makes waste."
"Stop being so sarcastic. We are not like you."
"Make way, don't block the road."
The boatman increased the speed of rowing. Gu Yuxi felt a little dizzy and said to the person behind him: "Boatman, pull over, slow down."
"Princess, we..."
"The princess told you to slow down."
Cuihong also felt a little dizzy. As the two boats passed by, Chen Caiyun said again, "I'm sorry, Princess Yuxi. You can follow slowly behind."
"Princess Yuxi, you gave too little money, so the boatman is inevitably slacking off. Look at us."
"We still have a spot here. Do you want to change boats? We are generous and will not charge you any money."
"Slow down, slow down, Princess Yuxi, please hurry up! We are going into the lake soon, and Lady Miaoyin is about to start singing."
Gu Yuxi didn't even glance at Chen Caiyun and the others. The people on the boats were drinking and chatting. The boats on the river were coming and going, and it was very lively. How could she be slow?
"My Lord, are they going too far?"
"How is that excessive? I've already said that more haste makes waste. Don't put so many people on one boat. Look less at others and more at yourself."
"Cuihong, the princess doesn't even care, why are you in such a hurry?"
"No, they are too arrogant. I really hope that as the princess said, their haste makes waste."
Just as he finished speaking, the figure in front, who was bending over the bow playing with the lantern, suddenly fell down with a few flutters.
"Help!"
"Princess Qingcheng and others fell into the water, please save them!"
"Oh no, Princess Qingcheng fell into the water."
Because the boat's speed did not slow down, it took some effort to stop the boat quickly. Two of the oars were actually broken, and the whole boat was shaking, and several people fell off.
As luck would have it, the boats behind were unable to slow down and a chain rear-end collision occurred, with several boats going down. It was truly a horrific sight.
