Chapter 215: Tricking Him
On the parade ground, the defeated Princess Gaoping had a gloomy face.
I originally thought that I was fully prepared, but I didn't expect that I was not on the same level as Ying Ying.
My plan was completely seen through by the opponent, and the defeat in this battle was all my fault!
Looking at the corpses scattered all over the ground, Princess Gao Ping stared at Ying Ying and said coldly, "I admit defeat, but I didn't bring the mask with me. I'll send someone to deliver it to you later."
It was impossible for Princess Gaoping to cheat in front of so many people.
However, Ying Ying sneered when she heard this: "This princess doesn't believe you. Tell your people to go back and get the mask now!"
Now that the fight has already begun and both sides have completely offended each other, there is no need to show mercy.
If you don't give face, you must not give face at all.
"you……"
Princess Gaoping clenched her hands and stared at Ying Ying: "Don't go too far!"
Ying Ying said coldly: "So what if I bully you? You should admit defeat and ask your people to deliver the mask immediately, otherwise this princess is not as easy to talk to as Chu Ning."
Chu Ning on the side was speechless.
You guys talk about your own things, why do you want to involve me?
Besides, am I easy to talk to?
However, judging from Ying Ying's attitude, she is determined to completely offend Princess Gaoping this time.
While thinking, Princess Gaoping took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.
Now is not the time to compete with Ying Ying. I can lose the battle but not my dignity.
"Someone, go to the inn and bring me the three bottles of facial masks on my dressing table!"
If you lose, you lose. Admit it quickly and at least you can save some face.
If you continue to pester him, you will only be oppressed by Ying Ying.
When Ying Ying saw Princess Gaoping admit defeat, he snorted coldly and waved his right hand, signaling the injured soldiers behind him to retreat.
Seeing this, Chu Ning stepped forward and said, “You two, even if this matter is over, I still hope you can come to my wedding in a few days.
The two of you must be tired after fighting for a long time. Why don't you go to the pavilion to rest for a while? It just so happens that all the envoys from other dynasties have arrived, so you can get to know each other."
Since the reputation of the facial mask needs to be spread, the envoys from other dynasties cannot be let off.
The two princesses were fighting over the facial mask, and presumably these people were also interested in knowing the effects of the mask.
Since we are going to do business, of course we should make it bigger!
Ying Ying had no objection to Chu Ning's suggestion, as she was waiting for the facial mask sent by Princess Gaoping.
Princess Gaoping didn't want to stay at this moment, but when she heard that envoys from other dynasties had arrived and Ying Ying took the initiative to go to the shed, she felt that it would seem petty if she didn't go.
With a flick of her hands, she threw the weapons in her hands to her guards, and followed Ying Ying towards the shed.
Inside the pergola, everyone looked at the two women who came in with different looks.
The prince stared at the two of them with a cold expression, then turned his head away, feeling very unhappy.
I thought these two people would definitely be injured. I can use this as an excuse to report Chu Ning to my father.
I didn't expect that these two people would just stop at that point. Not only were there no casualties, they now appear to be in a friendly relationship.
Princess Gaoping is a woman without any backbone. Why don't you dare to stand against Ying Ying when being bullied like this?
The prince didn't like the two women, but Huo Quji stared at Ying Ying with excitement.
Such a good opponent, if there is a chance, he doesn't mind meeting him on the battlefield!
Only when you meet a worthy opponent can you show your abilities!
While thinking, Ying Ying and Princess Gao Ping came to the pavilion and bowed to the emperor: "Greetings to His Majesty the Emperor of Great Chu."
The emperor looked at the two of them and sighed, "Why did you two do this? How can I explain to the Emperor of Qin and the Empress of Zhou that you have come to this point over just three bottles of facial masks?"
Ying Ying said indifferently: "This is my own decision. It has nothing to do with the Emperor of Great Chu!"
Princess Gaoping said indifferently: "Only a hundred people died. The Emperor of Great Chu does not need to be so upset."
This made the emperor breathe a sigh of relief.
As long as this matter doesn’t involve Da Chu, you can fight however you want!
"Since you two are so clear about justice, I have no choice but to give you an explanation!"
The emperor snorted coldly and stared at Chu Ning coldly: "This matter is all caused by you, the rebellious son. You must compensate the two princesses."
The prince's heart moved.
Does the emperor want to punish Chu Ning to appease the anger of the two princesses?
If that's the case, I'll have to report Chu Ning!
The prince quickly stepped forward with his eyes rolling, saying, "Father is right. As the person in charge of receiving the envoys, Chu Ning not only did not stop the two princesses from fighting, but also deliberately let them fight fiercely, resulting in the deaths of so many people!
If the Emperor of Qin and the Empress of Zhou knew about this, even if they didn't say it on the surface, they would definitely be angry in their hearts.
For this matter, the Eighteenth Brother must be punished, and an explanation must be given to the Great Qin and the Great Zhou!"
With such a good opportunity, of course I have to trick Chu Ning!
Even if the two princesses were not injured, almost all of their subordinates were killed. Isn't this enough to make the emperors of the two dynasties angry?
The emperor raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and a hint of hesitation flashed across his face.
Although I know that the prince is deliberately suppressing Chu Ning, what he said does make sense.
However, if the prince's request was agreed to, it would probably dampen Chu Ning's enthusiasm.
The emperor narrowed his eyes and looked at Chu Ning and asked, "What do you think of what the prince said?"
Chu Ning pretended to be wronged: "Father, this matter is not something I can decide."
"You still dare to quibble?"
The prince sneered: "It's obvious that you didn't handle this matter well, which is why things have deteriorated to this point. If you could coordinate this matter in the first place, the two princesses wouldn't have to fight each other!"
"This……"
This was the first time in Chu Ning's life that he was speechless after being confronted by someone. He looked wronged and helpless.
"Well, well, since my brother the Crown Prince said so, I can't help but express my opinion!"
Chu Ning seemed to have made up his mind, and said to Princess Ying Ying and Princess Gao Ping: "I cannot escape the blame for causing the two princesses to lose so many people today.
How about this, when the next batch of facial masks arrives, I will give each of you ten bottles!"
The two princesses didn't have much objection to Chu Ning. Seeing Chu Ning's sincere attitude, they didn't make things difficult for him and nodded in agreement.
The prince looked a little unhappy when he saw this.
Are these two women crazy? Chu Ning caused the deaths of so many of your people, why don’t you take the opportunity to take revenge on him?
Just when the prince was angry, Yang Xingye, the Grand Duke of Jin who had been silent, suddenly asked:
"Your Highness, Prince Chu, does this thing really have the effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin?"
Chu Ning said confidently: "Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have spent so much effort to refine this thing. After all, this bottle of facial mask costs three hundred taels of silver!"
Although it is expensive, in the eyes of nobles like Yang Xingye, three hundred taels of silver are not silver at all.
"Your Highness, Prince Chu, I am willing to order one hundred bottles of facial masks!"
As soon as I opened my mouth, I saw astonishing numbers!
This surprised everyone, and they all stared at Yang Xingye with confusion on their faces.
Why did the cowardly prince consort, who has always been looked down upon, suddenly become tough this time?
Although one hundred bottles of facial masks cost thirty thousand taels of silver, no one would have the courage to spend so much silver on a new thing whose efficacy is yet to be confirmed!
But Chu Ning frowned when he heard this: "No!"
Everyone was stunned.
Why not make money?
Is Chu Ning mentally ill?
