C52 Rumor

Gu Mengyue whispered, “I’ve seen it with my own eyes.”

“He eats people and drinks blood?” In Gu Jun’an’s hand was a glass of red blood. He would occasionally look down and take a sip of it, just like how he usually drank.

The scene was so vivid that Lan Qingqian frowned. Gu Mengyue whispered, “Once, a group of bandits came from a corner of the city.

I sneaked out of the palace to play and took them away. Seventh Brother found me and chased after me. He killed fifty to sixty bandits near the five mile pavilion outside the city. He killed them like they were cabbages.

The blood splashed on my face. It was red and full of blood. It smelled like blood. I was scared silly. When I saw him again, I always thought of him cutting cabbages and killing people. I couldn’t help but shiver.”

Lan Qingqian rolled her eyes and was speechless. “I mean you’ve seen him drink human blood with your own eyes?”

“No, I heard it from others!”

“I’ve never seen it. I’ve seen him drink soup and tea…” Lan Qingqian didn’t believe it. In her heart, Gu Jun’an was fierce, but he was nice to her and even gave her delicious fruits.

Gu Mengyue shook her head. “Anyway, I was a bit scared of him. Let’s not talk about this. Let’s go to the front and throw the pot!”

Most of them were young boys or girls.

The pink-clothed girl was the first one to get a round of applause.

Lan Qingqian followed behind Gu Mengyue and heard the girls around her say, “Prime Minister Wei’s third young lady is also very good. Although she can’t be compared to the Eldest Miss, her looks aren’t bad. She’s only eight or nine years old, but she’s a good shooter.”

Hearing the words ‘Prime Minister Wei’, Lan Qingqian immediately thought of Wei Lianyi. Her eyebrows twitched, but she didn’t say anything.

Wei Lianyi enjoyed the applause and was very satisfied. It was worth it for her to practice hard at home for two years. Seeing so many eyes of admiration, she felt that it was worth it. Just as her mother said, she had to work hard to get things. Only then could others see her and envy her.

She was a bit flippant in the praise and wished she could fly. The people behind her stepped on Lan Qingqian.

Lan Qingqian felt the pain and forcefully pulled her foot out. Because she was strong, she broke Wei Lianyi’s foot.

Wei Lianyi turned around and saw that she wasn’t much younger. Her voice also became louder, “Why did you push me?”

“You stepped on me.” Lan Qingqian was very angry.

Wei Lianyi had stayed in the Prime Minister’s Estate for a long time, so she naturally learned to be arrogant. She always felt that she was superior. Seeing her attitude wasn’t good, she immediately retorted, “I just stepped on you, and you dare to push me? Do you know who I am?” As she spoke, she pushed Lan Qingqian.

Gu Mengyue was also angry. She had seen it clearly. If this girl was bullied, then Seventh Brother wouldn’t let her go. Before Wei Lanyue touched Lan Qingqian, she immediately grabbed her hand and said, “How dare you bully the weak? Would you be able to see the sky if you just look at your eyes?”

Wei Lanyue had never been to the palace before, so she didn’t know Gu Mengyue. She thought they were sisters, and they were the children of some big family.

Therefore, she wasn’t polite. “You say it like you can see it too. If you don’t like it, we can compete?”

Gu Mengyue frowned. She didn’t know how to use this thing. She looked at Lan Qingqian, but Lan Qingqian said with her cheeks, “Let’s compete! How many did you throw?”

“Eight out of ten!” A little girl who was about the same age as Wei Lanyue said.

Lan Qingqian walked over and picked up the arrows from the basket. She put them in the basket according to where Wei Lanyue was standing. The little girl who answered Lan Qingqian exclaimed, “It’s amazing that you can throw eight arrows!”

Lan Qingqian put the last two arrows into the basket and hung them on the ears.

Gu Mengyue was also shocked. “I didn’t know you were so powerful!”
