Phoenix Hairpin Chapter 16: Good show
This scene shocked everyone.
Queen Qiao was also a little surprised. Her eyes glanced at Li Hao, who was gentle and sincere, and then landed on Lu Mingyu's cold and beautiful face, and she suddenly had a sense of realization in her heart.
That's right.
Lu Mingyu didn't show any emotion, and replied with a light expression: "It was my incompetence, which frightened Empress Zhaorong. Your Highness doesn't need to be so polite."
He neither got up to return the salute nor apologized for his rashness.
Li Hao's hand was in the air, and his expression was a little stiff.
Those black eyes flashed a trace of unbelievable sadness.
Three days ago, she beat him mercilessly and drove him away. Today, in front of Queen Qiao and others, she embarrassed Su Zhaorong.
He came to apologize in person, put down his pride and self-esteem, and bowed his head to her.
But she, sitting there motionless, rejected him so firmly and indifferently.
Why did that girl with a bright smile like the sun, Lu Mingyu who saw his eyes sparkling, become like this?
Shen Lan was a little uneasy, and quietly arrived at Lu Mingyu.
As a boudoir friend, Lu Mingyu and the third prince knew each other all the time. This is the first time she has seen the third prince.
No matter what happened in the past, the third prince is standing in front of him now, bowing his hands in apology! With so many people watching, Lu Mingyu was so indifferent and detached, ignoring him, where would he put the face of the third prince?
Lu Mingyu still didn't move.
Jin Can'er couldn't bear it any longer, she opened her mouth and said, "Lu Mingyu, you are too high! His Royal Highness the Third Prince apologized to you in person, and you should return it. Otherwise, the big guy should be joking. The fourth lady of the Xingyang Palace is rude..."
Before Lu Mingyu said a word, Li Hao frowned unpleasantly and glanced at him: "Who are you? The matter between this prince and Fourth Miss Lu, how can you be too troublesome!"
Jin Can'er: "..."
Jin Can'er's pretty face turned red, both ashamed and annoyed, tears rolling back and forth in her eyes.
Meng Yunluo and Jin Can'er have been friends for a long time. At this time, she has to add a few words for Jin Can'er. She immediately tugged on Jin Can'er's sleeve and said softly, "This is not a place to talk nonsense. You, it's time to keep your mouth shut."
I thank you friend!
Jin Can'er's heart surged, her face turned red and white, and she angrily drew back her sleeves.
Qiao Wan picked up the handkerchief to cover the chuckle at the corner of her mouth.
Zhao Yu also covered her face with a veil, but everyone could hear the sneer.
Queen Joe: "..."
No matter how deep Queen Qiao's palace was, she couldn't help but make this continuous uproar. The stuffiness in my heart, unable to go up or down, was stuck in my throat.
Queen Qiao took a deep breath, swallowed the turbid air in her heart, and squeezed out a nonchalant smile: "Forget it, this trivial matter is really not worth mentioning. The third prince should step down first!"
Li Hao had no choice but to surrender. Before leaving, he couldn't help but glance at Lu Mingyu.
Lu Mingyu looked indifferent and did not respond.
…
After Li Hao left, it was noon.
Queen Joe is a feast.
The imperial meal in the palace, the dishes are rich, delicate and delicious. At the palace banquet, there is also fruit wine suitable for the girl's family to drink.
However, none of the ladies are in the mood to eat and drink. After eating a few mouthfuls each, they put down their chopsticks.
Lu Mingyu had a good appetite, and filled her stomach gracefully and quickly.
Shen Lan whispered: "It's a shame you can still eat it."
He bumped into Su Zhaorong, annoyed the empress, and offended the third prince! I'm still in the mood to eat so much.
There is no one with such ability except Lu Mingyu.
Lu Mingyu raised her eyebrows and smiled, with a leisurely look on her face.
Shen Lan smiled helplessly.
After the banquet, there were originally a series of activities such as going to the Imperial Garden to enjoy flowers and write poems, but Queen Qiao was not in the mood to continue. Anyway, in the harem, except for Queen Mother Zhao, she didn't have to look at anyone's face.
As soon as the banquet was over, Queen Qiao showed a hint of tiredness.
Princess Hui'an immediately smiled and said, "The queen mother has been working hard all day long. It's very hard. Today, ladies and gentlemen, please leave the palace and return to the palace. When you have free time in the future, come to the palace to greet the queen mother."
Concubine Meng Gui glanced at Queen Qiao with a smile, and agreed: "Age is not forgiving. The concubines are also a little tired. Today's palace banquet, let's go!"
Queen Qiao snorted coldly in her heart.
All the girls got up and retire together.
When I came, I entered the palace one by one, and when I left the palace, there were not so many rules. In twos and threes, make a bunch of them, and feel free to go faster or slower.
Jin Can'er held back her sullen breath, walked quickly to Lu Mingyu's side, gritted her teeth and whispered, "Lu Mingyu, the good palace banquet was disturbed by you today. After today, let's see who else is willing to take care of you."
Lu Mingyu twitched the corners of his mouth with a half-smile, "I'm happy."
Jin Can'er's eyes almost burst into flames, and she blurted out in a rage, "I really don't know what His Highness the Third Prince is thinking, but he actually accompanies you in person."
The most irritating thing is that Her Royal Highness the Third Prince doesn't appreciate her sincere words!
The indignant girl's thoughts were almost written on her face.
Lu Mingyu glanced at ~IndoMTL.com~ to see the clue, and there was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. I don't know if I'm laughing at Jin Can'er, who has a swaying heart, or I'm laughing at myself, who was dazed by Li Hao back then.
Lu Mingyu consciously and kindly gave a piece of advice: "Su Zhaorong is not an easy person, it's better if you don't change your mind."
Jin Can'er was told the truth, and she was so embarrassed that she gave Lu Mingyu a vicious look: "I don't care, it has nothing to do with you!"
After speaking, he hurried away angrily.
Meng Yunluo chased after her, holding Jin Can'er's hand, and said something in a low voice.
Jin Can'er's tensed pretty face finally stretched out a bit.
…
Out of Donghuamen, Shen Lan just pulled Lu Mingyu onto his carriage without saying a word.
"Xiaoyu, what happened to you today?" Shen Lan frowned slightly, with a worried look on her face: "Why did you deliberately offend Su Zhaorong and the third prince?"
"Have you been having trouble with the third prince?"
Lu Mingyu pursed her lips slightly, and replied lightly, avoiding the important point: "I don't want to be chosen to be the prince's concubine, so I have to use some methods."
With the momentum of the Xingyang Palace and Lu Mingyu's outstanding performance, if you want to avoid choosing a prince and concubine, you really need to come up with some "strange tricks".
But this way, Lu Mingyu and the third prince lost their fate.
Shen Lan's thoughts flashed and she asked in a low voice, "You really don't want to be a princess?"
Lu Mingyu answered firmly: "Yes."
Shen Lan took a deep look at Lu Mingyu: "I'm afraid I can't help you."
The third prince's affection and obsession with Lu Mingyu could not be concealed from the discerning. If the third prince asked the empress to grant marriage, how could Lu Mingyu refuse?
Lu Mingyu's eyes flashed, and she said lightly: "My marriage, of course, I have to say it. No one can force me."
