351 An Unshakable Man Like Eldest Brother
General Song and his wife couldn’t hold back their expressions anymore.
This wasn’t what they had agreed on with Song Youyun previously. Why didn’t she fall into the first prince’s arms?!
Everyone could also see Song Youyun’s strange posture. The officials who had been cheering just now suddenly fell silent.
Song Youyun’s face flushed red and she felt very embarrassed.
Moreover, the first prince, Gu Zixiao, who was close by, lowered his gaze and looked at her coldly as if he was looking at a fool.
She gritted her teeth and suddenly got up.
Suddenly, the force that had stopped her loosened.
However, because Song Youyun used too much strength and the inertia was too great, she did a few somersaults on the spot.
In the end, she fell to the side and almost smashed the musician’s zither.
With a bang, Song Youyun fell to the ground.
The dance didn’t turn out well. Instead, it became an accident.
Gu Nuo’er quietly retracted her small hand and calmly held onto a cup with her two small hands, sipping the pear sugar water.
If she hadn’t pushed Song Youyun just now, the latter would have fallen into her eldest brother’s arms.
If this was a good older sister, Gu Nuo’er wouldn’t stop her.
Unfortunately, Song Youyun wasn’t good either! She wasn’t worthy of her brother.
Gu Yihan’s expression didn’t change. “Miss Song, do you need me to summon an imperial physician for you?”
Two palace servants came forward and helped Song Youyun up from the ground.
Her face was pale and her lips were bloodless. She shook her head and was helped down by the palace servants to the side pavilion building to change her clothes.
Gu Yihan didn’t pursue this matter further, and the other officials were indifferent as well.
This small episode at the banquet did not affect everyone’s meal.
After a while, the sound of music played by traditional Chinese musical instruments sounded, and the clamor of toasts came from the hall again.
Five princes were sitting at the first prince’s table.
The second prince, Gu Zitang, was wearing a jade head gear of extremely high quality and a golden and white robe. His eyes were charming.
He raised his peach blossom eyes and approached the third prince, Gu Ziyao. “Third Brother, why don’t we have a bet? The eldest daughter of the Song family must have wanted to take the opportunity to fall into Eldest Brother’s arms.”
The third prince blinked indifferently. “No, Second Brother can play by yourself. It’s just that I’m more worried now. You’ve just eaten venison and drank strong wine. According to the medical books, you’ll definitely have a stomachache tonight.”
The second prince snorted. “I’m in good health. I’m not afraid even if I get a stomachache.”
The fifth prince had been lowering his head the entire time. At this moment, he suddenly said, “Actually, the eldest daughter of the Song family is quite good-looking and is quite compatible with Eldest Brother.”
The second prince casually replied, “What do you mean by compatible? An unshakable man like Eldest Brother should find someone gentle as water. I don’t think Eldest Miss Song is worthy.”
The fifth prince’s lips twitched as if he wanted to say something, but he didn’t say anything else.
He came from a lowly background and was born from a palace maid.
Among the princes who were older than him, other than the fourth prince who had died early, the first, second, and third princes all had more character than him. Moreover, their mother also came from extremely influential families.
Therefore, the fifth prince did not interact with them often. Sometimes, he would seem too antisocial.
At this moment, Gu Nuo’er had already jumped out of Gu Yihan’s arms and onto the ground.
She placed her hands behind her back and strolled to her brothers’ table.
Two fair and chubby hands grabbed the edge of the table. “Baby Nuo’s brothers, do you still have black sesame glutinous rice balls on the table? Baby Nuo wants to eat them!”
When the first prince, Gu Zixiao, saw Gu Nuo’er, a smile finally appeared on his tense and determined face.
He picked Gu Nuo’er up and placed her on his lap. “Eldest Brother will feed you.”
