"The princess is the first daughter of His Majesty and the Empress. How could they not pamper her? I heard that the rewards given to the Princess's Mansion during festivals and holidays are comparable to those given to the Eastern Palace."
"Even one of these gifts from the Princess's Mansion is a sincere gesture. These many rare treasures are almost as much as Prince Lu's betrothal gifts for marrying a wife, right?"
"This is much more generous than the betrothal gift."
Qi Yuning looked at Lu Ze, who was standing in front of him with his hands clasped but not bowed, and said, "Lu Yun has already become a monk. He has nothing to do with your Lu family. So I hope your Lu family will not interfere in anything related to Xianglin Temple."
Lu Ze put down his hand and said, "This is as it should be. Lu Yun is already a monk. How he lives in the temple has nothing to do with the secular world. The Lu family will not ask a single question."
Qi Yuning said, "And Lu Yun disobeyed the imperial order and refused to marry, and instead became a monk. This is indeed due to the poor upbringing of your Lu family. As the saying goes, an uneducated son is the fault of his father, and there's also a saying that an elder brother is like a father. If Prince Lu is willing to kneel down and kowtow three times today, I will forgive the humiliation the Lu family humiliated me yesterday."
Lu Ze looked up at Qi Yuning and clenched his hands, "Princess."
Qi Yu'an came out of the palace and stood beside Qi Yuning and said, "Prince Lu, do you think that since your Lu family has humiliated my sister like this, my sister is not worthy of you kneeling down to apologize?"
Qi Yuning gently waved the round fan in her hand and said, "As long as Master Lu kneels, this princess will no longer care about this matter."
Lu Ze looked at Qi Yuning's cold eyes and knelt on one knee: "Princess, can you forgive the Lu family?"
Lu Ze knelt on one knee, and the onlookers were shocked.
Qi Yuning didn't expect Lu Ze to actually kneel down. He was the famous Prince Lu Shaoqing of Shengjing, the son of a princess, and a born favorite of heaven!
I have heard how outstanding Master Lu is since I was young. Is he really willing to kneel down and apologize to me in public?
Lu Ze was a member of the royal family after all, so Qi Yu'an wouldn't really let him kneel down. He stepped forward to help Lu Ze up and said with a smile, "We have received your Lu family's sincerity. Come, have a drink with me."
Lu Ze said, "Okay."
Qi Yuning took the list of apology gifts from the manager of the princess's mansion, and it was just as the onlookers said, the treasures in the apology gifts were more than the prince's betrothal gift.
Inside the palace, Qi Yu'an and Lu Ze were drinking in the pavilion.
Qi Yu'an sighed and said, "I went out for a walk today and everyone was laughing at my sister for not being able to get married. I want to help my sister find a husband better than Lu Yun as soon as possible to prevent her from being laughed at."
Lu Ze raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay."
Since they already have a daughter, in order to protect Qi Yuning's reputation, if the Qi family is willing, he should marry Qi Yuning...
Qi Yu'an poured Lu Ze a glass of wine and said slowly, "I heard that Qin Feng, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice, and Lin Jiang, the Imperial Academy Scholar, are both well-known promising young men in Shengjing City."
"I also heard that they are good friends of Master Lu. So, Master Lu, please help my sister find these two gentlemen and act as a matchmaker."
