Chapter 143 I Want to See You But I Don’t Know You
"You're still mad at me."
"How dare I be angry with the virtuous king? As long as you say something, the emperor will agree." Miss Lu said sarcastically. The virtuous king didn't need to explain what this meant.
Miss Lu's sarcasm was spot on. Who could get a good job just by saying a few words to the emperor without any personal interests involved? It had to be him.
Moreover, who in the Southern Dynasty didn't know that his mother was the emperor's favorite? Isn't it true that love for the whole family extends to the whole family?
Miss Lu smiled coldly. What else did she want? She just hoped that the virtuous king would let her go.
Don't keep pestering yourself, just let her go early.
The wise king felt sad to see the girl he had loved for many years in such a state. He wanted to explain... but it seemed that everything was pale and powerless.
He also laughed out loud, bowed to Miss Lu, and turned to leave.
Miss Lu also had a wide smile on her face. Lord Lu walked up to her and asked, "What happened to Qingyue? What did the virtuous king say to you? Why were you laughing with him?"
"It's nothing, Daddy, let's go back. We have to accompany the princess tomorrow."
After getting on the carriage, it slowly drove away. The court officials who came to watch the excitement also dispersed, and those who wanted to inquire about the news heard nothing.
The two were too close and spoke in low voices. The tall figure of the virtuous king directly blocked Lu Qingyue's slender body, leaving those who wanted to see her beauty up close disappointed.
After returning to his residence in Beijing, Lord Lu was extremely worried. That was the wise king!
They are not Prince Rui and the Crown Prince. He can directly refuse them based on their family background, saying that their daughter is not worthy... Both of them have the potential to become emperor.
This, the virtuous prince was originally a leisurely prince, so he just married the concubine he liked, and the emperor also intentionally cultivated him in this way.
How could he refuse?
Besides, the virtuous king would at least be with his daughter for a while before abandoning her. For such a person, his daughter even asked Chang Xixi to kill this unfaithful man.
Chang Xixi was no ordinary person. She could cure any difficult illness and even opened a school, making her a famous talent in Ruzhou City. She also wrote scripts for teahouses and was already the richest woman in Ruzhou City. If anyone dared to bully her, they would be killed by her eloquent tongue.
Can’t offend!
What should I do?
Lu Qingyue saw the difficulty Master Lu was in and said, "Father, don't worry. Your daughter will handle it well. Your Majesty is not... without calculations. Letting the virtuous prince stay by the princess's side directly prevents the prince and the wise prince's men from getting close. And I'm just a shield. I can't play the role of a headband. Can't you even think of this?"
"I'm getting old and confused." Lord Lu sighed. Ever since his daughter came into contact with Chang Xixi, she has become a completely different person. He doesn't know whether he is happy or sad.
Early the next morning, Lu Qingyue was called to the princess's palace... She had to serve the princess breakfast, then change her clothes and play with her. If anyone wanted to see her, she had to accompany them.
The virtuous prince had been waiting outside the Lu Mansion early in the morning. When Lu Qingyue went out with her maid, she saw that man... standing there, looking at her from a distance.
"Good morning, Miss Lu."
"Good morning, Your Majesty. You are up so early, I'm afraid you haven't had breakfast yet. It's really hard for you to do such a job..." Miss Lu's words were full of sarcasm.
But he didn't care at all and even smiled and wanted to hold her hand.
Qingyue walked right past the virtuous king, grabbed the servant's hand, and got on the carriage. The servants looked terrified. They had never expected that there would be a woman who dared to refuse the virtuous king!
Everyone knows that the virtuous king is the son of the emperor's most beloved woman. It is easy to see how heavy the weight of those words is!
So, who would dare to refuse the wise king? This is a unique event! And today, they all saw it. It is a miracle! They can brag about it for the rest of their lives.
The two of them came to the princess's palace together, walked into the main hall where the princess lived, waited outside for the eunuch's notification, and then got the princess's permission.
They walked in, and when the princess saw the two of them walking in together, a smile immediately appeared on her lips...
"You two really came here together. Aren't you afraid of being criticized by the world?"
"I'm not afraid! I'm just afraid that Qingyue doesn't like me, so I'll be tied to her name! I'm just afraid that it will tarnish the girl's sanctity... She'll be disgusted when she sees me in the future."
After hearing what the wise king said, Qingyue dared not speak anymore!
Because what this person said was true. Now she just wanted Chang Xixi to be by her side, to help her relieve her emotions and allow her to face this person bravely!
Now, when she saw the wise king, she just wanted to cry and talk... to talk about the dissatisfaction and the loss and pain accumulated in her heart.
Unfortunately, with the princess here, she couldn't express her emotions. She could only swallow her anger for the time being.
"Your Majesty is renowned for your virtue, but how can you compare to me? I am merely... the child of an official. I cannot compare to you, a son of the royal family. I cannot compare to your level of nobility. Please, Your Majesty, do not make such jokes again. You will be ridiculed. It is not good for you, as the master."
She spoke.
He served the princess the food and said, "I don't know if the princess can get used to the food here. This is porridge... and here are buns and some snacks." As he spoke, he looked at the princess's face, fearing that she might not like him.
The princess, on the other hand, sat down naturally and asked the virtuous king to sit down as well. Then, looking at the person serving the dishes, she said, "You should sit down and eat too! We should be about the same age. There's no need to be so formal. I came to the Southern Dynasty for other things, but that doesn't mean I can't... have some friends in life. I think you two are great! You're more genuine than the wise king! And I hope you can be together!"
As she spoke, the princess grabbed Qingyue's wrist. Her expression changed from solemn to surprised, and when she looked at the wise king, she understood.
"But let's get married first! We can always decide on other things after we're married. The main thing is... you guys... in this situation, if you don't get married now, you'll really be criticized."
Qingyue said: "The child is long gone, I don't care! Princess, don't worry."
"I know. I knew it from your pulse. Moreover, you even tried to end your life. Fortunately, someone gave you advice... and you survived. And... you are also... taking a certain medicine."
"yes."
"It seems you have to work harder!" The princess looked at the wise king, "A man should do what a man should do. He shouldn't be timid and lack integrity."
