Chapter 89 Royal City Banquet [Player OOC Warning Twice!]...
How can you make someone like you?
This question left Lin Fengbai, whose mind was already blank, even more completely lost.
But...
For a while, he was locked up by Lin Qinghe and had nothing to do, so he watched a huge amount of TV dramas and movies. Then, he used his extensive written knowledge, combined with almost zero practical experience, to give what sounded like fairly reasonable advice.
Yes, that's right.
It just sounds more objective.
After all, Lin Fengbai himself hadn't personally tested whether it would work or not.
Prince Lucius remained silent for a long while after hearing this. During this time, Lin Fengbai was on tenterhooks, swallowing hard without daring to make a sound. Only when Lucius nodded slightly and waved to him did he breathe a sigh of relief.
His "resourceful and shrewd" persona should be temporarily secured.
The next day, when Shi Yu got up, he saw more than a dozen boxes on the floor of the outer hall. Inside were gold and silver jewelry, ornaments and fine clothes, jade and silk, jadeite ornaments, famous paintings and tea sets... Each item was very expensive. The maid said that Prince Lucius had ordered them to be sent over that morning.
"Is it tribute?" Shi Yu asked.
Shi Yu thought for a while but couldn't figure out what it was for. In the end, he could only think of this. But if it was tribute, it should have been sent to the palace to his father, the king. Why was it sent to him?
“No, these are gifts from His Highness Lucius to the Princess.” The maid smiled and pointed to several jade artifacts, saying happily, “These are very rare treasures. Not only are they expensive, but they are no longer available on the market. Only a few collectors have them, and even if you offer a lot of money, they may not be willing to pay. And this luminous pearl is said to be one of a kind in the world. It seems that His Highness Lucius really values the Princess.”
"Why did he give me all this?" Shi Yu blinked and looked at the maid, his clear eyes showing a hint of confusion. To the maid, he looked innocent and naive. The maid smiled at him and lowered her voice, "Of course, he wants to pursue the princess."
Shi Yu: "..."
oh.
Yes.
In this instance, he plays the role of the one being conquered.
“I…” Shi Yu paused. He wanted to ask if he could return it, but he wasn’t sure if the customs of the royal palace allowed it, so he hesitated before speaking, “Can I return it? It feels… too precious.”
The maid said, "If Your Highness goes back, His Highness Lucius will lose face."
Since the NPC said so, it means we can't get a refund.
Shi Yu nodded obediently, "Alright then."
Just then, a maid came to announce: "Princess, His Highness Lucius would like to invite you to breakfast."
Shi Yu regretted not exchanging information with Shen Su during their meeting last night, which led to them being unable to recognize each other after being teleported out and reverting to their respective roles. However, after thinking about it, he realized that even if he had intended to send information, it would probably have been blocked or obstructed by the system.
However, after seeing Shen Su, his heart was at peace.
He's not in a hurry to reunite with his teammates.
He decided to explore the instance first. The instance's theme was "The Princess's Choice of a Husband," and the main characters were the "princess" and "the princess's suitors." Therefore, he decided to get to know his suitors and perhaps gain some information from them.
Before he could even figure out how to get close to them, someone came knocking on his door.
"Please wait a moment, Your Highness Lucis, I'll change my clothes..." Shi Yu agreed without much hesitation, and at the same time, she lifted her skirt and walked towards the inner hall. After taking a few steps, she heard a maid say something behind her.
“Prince Moses of the Green family wishes to invite you to admire the flowers, and Prince Ron of the Wilson family, the Vice-General of the War God, wishes to invite you to ride horses…” The maid hesitated for two seconds before finishing in one breath, “They are all outside the door.”
Shi Yu stopped in her tracks.
The main hall was unusually quiet for a moment.
A few seconds later, the maid's weak voice rang out.
"Princess...who would you like to choose?"
The maids exchanged glances, each wondering who the princess would choose.
First, Prince Moses of the Green family is sunny, optimistic, and humorous. Whether you're admiring flowers or doing anything else, you'll always have something to talk about. Second, the Wilson family is small, and although Prince Ron is the vice-general of the God of War, he is also the sole heir of the Wilson family. Although he is overshadowed by the God of War, he is a true nobleman.
Although they are all outstanding, Prince Lucius is the prince charming in the hearts of countless girls. Who could resist Prince Lucius?
Moreover, the princess spent time alone with Prince Lucius at the banquet last night.
The princess will definitely choose Prince Lucius.
Shi Yu's live stream also contained speculation—
[Qin Ke, Mo Rugui, tsk, except for Chen Su, they're all here. Who will my Yu Yu wife choose?]
[It should be Lucius. To be honest, Lucius is the most handsome among these guys, even though he's just an NPC.]
[That's superficial. My Yuyu isn't someone who judges by looks. I think he'll choose someone he's more interested in getting to know. Last night, Mo Rugui probably made a decent impression on him, but Mo Rugui's behavior was too much like an NPC. Yuyu is probably more interested in the God of War, but the God of War didn't come, although his deputy did, so it's hard to say. He might also choose Qin Ke.]
The preceding analysis seems to have both appeared and not been done at all.
[That's a very good analysis; you don't need to do any more.]
...
Shi Yu waited for a few minutes.
The side quest for the scenario was not released in the background.
It seems he'll have to make the decision himself this time.
Shi Yu lifted her skirt and turned around.
“Then,” the girl’s voice was sweet, and she gave the maid a naive smile, “let’s all go together.”
maid:"?"
Shi Yu added, "Oh, and let's also invite His Highness Su Ye."
maid:"?????"
Shi Yu's live stream was hilarious!
[Aaaaaaaahh ...
[So lively and exciting! Hahaha!]
[Hilarious! Only children make choices; adults want it all!]
[“Call out His Highness Su Ye”—this is deliberately emphasized! Think about it carefully!!!]
...
The maid relayed the news to the three people outside the door.
For a fleeting moment, the expressions of the three men, each with a distinct demeanor, were synchronized.
Similarly.
blank.
.
The most famous restaurant in the royal city, Raphael, was booked out today. Those with good connections had already learned that the person who booked the place was His Highness Lucius, so early in the morning, the restaurant was packed with people—all of them Lucius's fans.
The restaurant had anticipated this and had set up two cordon lines on either side of the red carpet at the entrance to keep fans outside. While Lucius's fans were enthusiastic, they were also well-mannered and stood orderly outside the cordon lines.
When Lucius's carriage arrived, the fans began to scream.
"Your Highness Lucis!"
"Your Highness looks so handsome today!!!"
"Your Highness, I love..."
The fans' declarations of love came to an abrupt halt because they noticed another carriage following Prince Lucius's carriage—a pink, pumpkin-shaped carriage, which belonged to the princess.
It turns out that His Highness Lucius booked the entire venue to invite the princess to breakfast.
However, it's understandable, since Lucius came to the royal city to participate in the princess's selection of a husband.
Lucius alighted from the carriage, turned around and walked to the back, stopping in front of the princess's carriage. He stretched out a hand towards the person inside, and in an instant, a slender hand wearing a snow-white lace glove rested on the man's well-defined and strong palm.
The man politely half-grabbed the princess's hand, helped her out, and then released her.
The early morning sunlight was not strong, and the soft golden light shone on the two of them. The man was tall and handsome, and his every move exuded elegance. The princess wore a light blue dress, her figure was graceful, and her steps were light. A light gold pendant hung on her forehead. Even though her face was covered by a veil, her beauty was still overwhelming.
The two of them standing together are a perfect couple.
Although the girls liked Prince Lucius, it was just an idol crush. Now that they saw the princess and Prince Lucius standing together and looking so good together, they couldn't help but sigh and say things like, "Lucius is so handsome, the princess is so beautiful, they are such a perfect match."
After all, everyone loves watching a story of a handsome man and a beautiful woman.
When the fans started cheering, Lucius whispered a few words to the princess, who returned a faint smile. Lucius then extended his arm to the princess, but she didn't put her arm in; instead, she turned to look behind her.
Two more carriages arrived.
The carriage in front belonged to the Green family. A man with medium-length flaxen curly hair got off the carriage and immediately came over to shake hands with the princess with great enthusiasm: "Thank you for your kind invitation, Your Highness! I haven't had breakfast yet either. Oh, Raphael Restaurant? I've heard that this restaurant is very good, and I've been wanting to try it for a long time."
The man with medium-length, flaxen curly hair was named Moses. He looked incredibly enthusiastic, but in reality, he was very polite. When he shook hands, he shook hands and then let go.
The princess nodded slightly to him.
"I didn't expect Prince Lucius to be here too?" Prince Moses seemed to only then notice Lucius, and then shook Lucius's hand and greeted him profusely.
After Moses finally finished his rambling pleasantries, Lucius discovered that the princess was no longer there.
The God of War, Suye, and his lieutenant, Ron, arrived at the same time in the carriage behind Suye. The two had already disembarked, and the princess had walked over at some point and was now standing in front of Suye.
She nodded to Ron as a greeting, and then turned her gaze to the God of War.
"I apologize for inviting Your Highness here," the girl said in a sweet, gentle voice, her gaze earnestly fixed on the other's eyes. "Wouldn't that be presumptuous of you?"
Shen Su lowered his eyes and looked at the veiled princess who was so close to him.
He hadn't really looked closely at the princess's appearance before, but now, seeing her up close, he noticed that she also had almond-shaped eyes...
The two stared at each other for a moment.
Shen Su did not answer that question; instead, he asked another one.
Did I run into the princess in the hallway again last night?
Shen Su saw those beautiful almond-shaped eyes and their dark pupils trembled slightly.
His heart skipped a beat.
Several seconds later he noticed the warning from the game panel.
[Player issued two OOC warnings!]
[If a player goes out of character (OOC) more than three times, the game ends.]
