After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the door.
When Jiang Zhili walked into the restaurant, the waiter was stunned when he saw her appearance, but he quickly reacted and lowered his head.
He inquired, "Would you like to sit in the hall or in a private room?"
There are many dignitaries who come to their restaurant, and they have seen the world.
"Our princess is naturally going to the private room. Please help lead the way, waiter!" Achan arrived with a candied haws, buns and beggar's chicken in her hands.
The waiter quickly stepped forward and took everything from Ah Chan's hands. He bent down and said, "Please go upstairs, sir."
As he said this, he walked upstairs with a hunched back.
Across the lobby is the staircase.
There were also quite a few diners in the lobby, and their eyes were all focused on Jiang Zhili. Their expressions were different, all with a hint of surprise, but more of it was complexity.
Whispers were also heard from the diners:
"This tribal princess is truly stunningly beautiful, but it's a pity that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."
"How can there be so much genuine affection between two countries? If it weren't for the shamelessness of Japan, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wouldn't have needed to marry!"
"Given the princess's condition, I would have rushed back long ago. The Wolf Lord tribe is known for its bravery and fighting spirit. If the two countries can intermarry, we in Mingyuan will be greatly advantaged!"
"Your Highness is foolish, to be so attached to such an illusory person. However, His Majesty and the Empress really treat the princess very well, and even allowed her to leave the palace..."
"Don't say that. I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has already met the destined woman. How could such a plot in a picture book not be tempting?"
…
When Jiang Zhili heard the diner's words, she didn't have any special reaction.
After all, she knew that she was Yuan Mo's destined woman.
She knew it, but Achan didn't. At this moment, Achan's expression was a little ugly, but she didn't dare to get angry.
But the princess didn't say anything, and as a servant, she had no right to complain.
Jiang Zhili went upstairs with his servants.
After going upstairs, the diners in the lobby could no longer see the second floor, and began to look away one after another.
Rumors about Jiang Zhili's stunning beauty gradually spread in the capital.
Second floor.
Prince Yuanqing was standing at the stairs. Seeing Jiang Zhili coming up, he smiled and bowed to her, "It's said that the tribal princess is unparalleled in beauty. Seeing her today, I can see that the reputation is well-deserved!"
Jiang Zhili saw that Yuan Qing looked a bit like Yuan Mo, so she raised her eyebrows and said, "This young man is..."
"I am the Crown Prince of Xianwang. Princess, would you be so kind as to have me with you for dinner?" Yuan Qing blinked his peach blossom eyes, which seemed to be filled with a hint of affection, quite charming.
Jiang Zhili thought about Yuan Mo who was unwilling to return. She smiled and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Prince."
Yuan Qing waved his hand to let the waiter go down, and he personally took Jiang Zhili into the private room.
The private room was quite elegant. The food on the table had been cleared away before she came in, and the restaurant had already started cooking again.
The position of the round table is just right so that you can see the lake in the distance from the window, which is a pleasant scenery.
"Princess, you are new to the capital. Are you feeling unwell?" Yuan Qing filled the teapot for Jiang Zhili.
Jiang Zhili smiled and said, "There's nothing wrong with it. Your Majesty is very friendly. It's just that the only worry is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."
Yuan Qing paused with the folding fan in his hand and sighed softly.
"The princess has come a long way, it must be very tiring. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a gentle person, and he will surely get along well with the princess."
Jiang Zhili smiled and said nothing more. She gestured to Achan to open the beggar's chicken, buns and candied haws that they had bought. At this time, the servants in the restaurant also began to serve the dishes one after another.
Yuan Qing took the initiative to introduce the dishes to Jiang Zhili in a gentle and polite manner.
Jiang Zhili ate her fill and packed some food after finishing. During the meal, she asked about the affairs between Mingyuan and Japan, and was sure that the two countries were irreconcilable.
After eating, it was almost evening and Yuan Qing personally sent her to the carriage.
Looking at the carriage going further and further away, Yuan Qing's smile did not diminish.
"The tribal princess is quite interesting..."
Despite the Crown Prince's coldness, she neither made a fuss nor complained. Even when she mentioned the Crown Prince, she showed no dissatisfaction, which made the Crown Prince seem less magnanimous.
How can love between young people be greater than the love and hatred between family and country?
Time came two days later.
Jiang Zhili was wearing a wedding dress. She was sitting in the main hall of the East Palace with a big red veil on the table.
Ah Chan stood aside, looking at her princess's bright face, feeling both sorry and furious: "This Crown Prince Mingyuan is really going too far. He hasn't even come back yet!"
Jiang Zhili's face was also cold, she curled the corners of her lips slightly:
"Achan, grind the ink for me."
Since you won’t come back for the wedding, then don’t come back.
After a while, a strong servant came out of the palace with Jiang Zhili's letter.
There are tribal people outside the palace doing small businesses in the capital, and they can be used to send messages to the Wolf Lord. This is also the main reason why the Wolf Lord ordered his people to enter the capital.
These tribal people who were selected to come to the capital had almost no characteristics of grassland tribes in appearance, so it was not easy for them to be discovered when they mixed into the capital.
On the other side of Yuan Mo.
It was not that he did not intend to return, but on the way to the capital, he encountered Japanese robbers again. He stopped and dealt with them before setting off again.
By the time they returned to the palace, the auspicious time had already passed.
Yuan Mo came back and was slapped by the Queen before he even entered the East Palace.
Looking at her travel-weary son, the Queen felt both heartbroken and disappointed: "I have really raised you to the point where you can't tell right from wrong!
This wedding is about the friendship between our two countries. Your willful behavior is really disappointing!"
Yuan Mo pursed his lips and knelt down. He did not argue: "My Queen Mother is teaching me that it is my fault."
Being late is being late, even if there is an emergency, it cannot be used as an excuse.
The Queen waved her hand and said, "You are not sorry to me, but to your future wife. Go back to the East Palace and apologize."
Yuan Mo kowtowed to the queen and then hurried to the East Palace.
It was not until he reached the gate of the East Palace that he felt that the East Palace was somewhat unfamiliar.
The originally deserted palace was now decorated with lights and the door that was originally unmanned was now guarded by two strong men, which was very different from before he left.
"Who are you?" The two strong men did not give him any face and asked viciously.
With a little thought, they can figure out who is appearing here at this time. However, the prince does not take their princess seriously, so they naturally do not take the prince seriously either!
"How dare you! This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Why don't you make way for him?" The eunuch following Yuan Mo stood up and angrily scolded the burly man guarding the gate.
The burly man guarding the door sneered and made way.
Yuan Mo didn't care and hurried into the East Palace.
He first changed into his wedding clothes before going into the main hall.
There were big red wedding candles burning in the main hall, and servants were guarding it, but there was no sign of the tribal princess.
There was only a maid holding a hen, standing in the center of the main hall...
