Reborn to abuse the scumbag, the demon queen destroyed her ex-husband's entire family

Mu Gu curled the corners of his mouth and touched the black cloth covering his eyes, calculating in his mind the seats of the people he had just seen.

Almost everyone participated in the games of passing the flower to the beat of the drum and pitching the pot. Men and women sat in a big circle. It was not known whether Princess Jianing had chosen a seat farthest away from Duanmu Ling on purpose.

But on her left was Zhao Yuanshan.

Zhao Yuanshan was very excited to be able to sit next to Princess Jianing, but he remained calm on the surface. He just politely held Princess Jianing's cushion to make it easier for her to sit down, and nodded in greeting.

Looking at the naive Zhao Yuanshan, Princess Jianing couldn't help but smile with her hands covering her mouth, and this smile was like a hundred flowers blooming.

Originally, Zhao Yuanshan thought the flowers in the garden were gorgeous, but now, compared with Princess Jianing, they pale in comparison.

Then this silly boy's face turned red involuntarily, which made Princess Jianing find him even more interesting.

This scene fell into the eyes of Duanmu Ling on the opposite side, making him even more irritated. His brows were furrowed, and the corners of his mouth turned down, making him look like someone who came to collect debts.

The girl sitting next to him was the governor of Jizhou. She wanted to talk to him, but when she looked up and saw his appearance, she was so scared that she stopped talking immediately.

In the pavilion not far away, many ladies were looking at the garden. Although today was a gathering of young people, there were still elders from each family coming.

The eldest princess also prepared several banquet tables in the pavilion. Since the pavilion was large, it could accommodate everyone.

At this time, someone stood at the railing and smiled at Zhao Yuanshan in the garden, "Madam Zhao, your second son looks really strong. I heard that he has become a captain in the army?"

Mrs. Zhao had a bit of pride in her eyes, but she was still very humble, "He's just a useless guy, not as good as his brother!"

Although General Zhao was a general, he had no concubines in his backyard and his family had always been loyal to monogamy. He and his wife had two sons, the eldest son Zhao Wenshan and the younger son Zhao Yuanshan.

This is also the reason why many ladies keep their eyes on the Zhao family's sons, not for any other reason, but just so that after their daughters get married, they don't have to worry about the dirty things in the backyard.

Zhao Wenshan followed his father in the army in his early years, and the youngest son also joined the barracks at the age of fourteen. Because General Zhao had served under General Xiao before, the emperor intended to cultivate him, and the Zhao family is now in its heyday.

When the Rongdi tribes in the north invaded, the emperor sent General Zhao to escort Mu Huan to fight the enemy, and his eldest son Zhao Wenshan also went with them.

Now, only Madam Zhao and the youngest son of the Zhao family are in Kyoto, which can be regarded as a kind of hostage to the military generals outside.

However, the Zhao family is highly regarded by the emperor. As long as they don't commit suicide, it will not be a problem for them to stay at the top of the new elite in the next ten years.

Because Zhao Wenshan is already married but Zhao Yuanshan is not, most of the families with unmarried daughters set their sights on Zhao Yuanshan.

Although Mrs. Zhao spoke modestly, everyone knew that the men in the Zhao family were not pushovers. There was no need to talk about General Zhao, let's just talk about the two sons.

The eldest son, Zhao Wenshan, has now become a young general and has followed his father in battles all over the world. His future achievements will surely be comparable to his father's.

Although Zhao Yuanshan looks a little worse now, the emperor has set up the Black Tiger Camp in recent years. The camp only obeys the emperor's orders, and those who can enter have some real skills.

Ever since Mrs. Zhao received the invitation from the eldest princess, she asked her son to keep this day empty. Although she did not think that Princess Jianing would like her son, it would be nice for her to choose a girl from a good family to marry.

Several other ladies who had daughters at home could not help but laugh when they heard this and said, "Madam Zhao, you are being modest, right? Everyone knows about the Black Tiger Battalion. It's not easy to become a Tiger Guard Captain!"

"Yes, he climbed up through his own strength. I think Second Young Master Zhao has a bright future. He may even surpass General Zhao in the future!"

Since you want to curry favor with someone, you will naturally say whatever sounds nice.

People are like this. They always feel happy when they are praised by others. The smile on Mrs. Zhao's face never faded.

Even the eldest princess came over and watched the game with everyone else.

With an order, drums sounded, and bright red silk flowers kept passing from hand to hand. With the last drumbeat, the red silk actually fell into the hands of the daughter of the Jizhou governor.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, the young lady's face suddenly turned red.

"Ms. Liao, since the red flower is in your hands, you should prepare a show!"

Princess Jianing remembered Miss Liao. She had talked to her after she came. She was a very shy girl.

Princess Jianing would not give a cold shoulder to those who were good to her, and would still be willing to give her some advice.

Miss Liao looked at everyone with her doe eyes and said with a red face: "I am not very proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but I am quite good at knitting. If the princess doesn't mind, I will show you how to knit."

"Okay, I'm clumsy, and I envy people who are deft!"

Princess Jianing didn't have the heart to embarrass her, so she smiled and asked her maid to fetch colorful strings. Miss Liao looked at the colored strings for a moment, then her hands began to move.

Her hands moved as fast as flowers, and she made a small goldfish the size of a thumb in less than a cup of tea.

Although this little goldfish is small, it has a tail and fins, and its black eyes are very lively. Princess Jianing liked it as soon as she saw it and asked her maid to show it to her first.

"Ms. Liao has really deft hands. Such a lifelike goldfish!"

Others also praised her, which made Miss Liao's face turn redder. She couldn't help but glance at Duanmu Ling beside her, but found that he was drinking tea with his head down, as if he was not interested in it.

She sighed in her heart, looked up at Princess Jianing again, and decided that she should not dream of interfering in their relationship, so she stopped paying attention to Duanmu Ling.

Finally, the little goldfish was passed around and returned to Princess Jianing. She asked Miss Liao for it and hung it directly on the jade pendant.

Next to the green jade pendant around the waist is a small orange-red goldfish, which makes it look more lively.

The game of passing the flower continued, and this time when the drum stopped, the red silk actually stopped in Princess Jianing's hands.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Princess Jianing thought for a moment and directly threw the red silk in her hand to Zhao Yuanshan beside her.

The ladies in the pavilion couldn't help laughing when seeing this scene. Even the eldest princess laughed and scolded Princess Jianing for cheating.

Madam Zhao looked at the eldest princess, pursed her lips and smiled, "The princess is so straightforward!"

Zhao Yuanshan looked at the red silk in his hand, then raised his head to look at Princess Jianing, not knowing what to do for a moment.

Just at this time, Mu Gu pulled off the cloth strip, listened to what Xiao Ruge had just said to him, looked at Zhao Yuanshan and said with a smile: "Since the red silk is in your hands now, why don't you perform a show!"
