In the early summer noon, one can already feel the scorching heat of the sun. Li Mingyue, wearing a gauze dress, leans on the chaise longue, exuding a lazy temperament.
She drank a few glasses of wine last night and didn't get up until noon. Even now, she looked a little dazed.
After experiencing life and death with Lu Chen, Li Mingyue felt at a loss as to what to do after her extremely tense spirit suddenly relaxed. Now she couldn't muster the energy to do anything.
As she ate the fruit the maid brought to her mouth, Li Mingyue sighed and muttered to herself, "This kind of royal environment is really prone to ruining people."
The female official standing beside her hurriedly came forward and said, "Your Highness, do you need to summon a singer or dancer?"
In the past, Li Mingyue liked watching singing and dancing very much, but at this moment, she always felt that those slow and leisurely dances were really boring.
Seeing that Li Mingyue was silent, the female official thought of another idea and said, "How about we find a few retainers who are good at elegant conversation?"
"Okay, then let's call a few people over." Li Mingyue nodded in agreement. She was actually a person who was afraid of loneliness. It was better to have someone to chat with than to lie here alone.
Upon hearing this, the female official hurriedly sent someone to call the guests who were still in the princess's mansion. All the glory and wealth of these people in the princess's mansion depended on the eldest princess, so once the eldest princess was in a bad mood, they would be more nervous than anyone else.
Not long after the person who went to call the doorman left, someone came hurriedly running in from the doorman's office.
The female official frowned slightly upon seeing this. Just as she was about to step forward and reprimand the other party for being unruly, Li Mingyue, who was reclining, said in a lazy tone, "What happened? Could it be that someone else dares to come to our princess's mansion to cause trouble?"
Li Mingyue felt that if someone really came to cause trouble, it would be a good way to pass the time.
The person who came in knelt on the ground and saluted, saying, "Your Highness, please forgive me. This is an urgent situation. Immortal Master Lu is right at the door and he insists on seeing you. We are almost unable to stop him!"
What!?
Li Mingyue turned over and sat up from the chaise longue, and the lazy temperament on her body disappeared.
There was a mixture of shame, anger and joy on her face. She wanted to run away, but she felt that this was not a good idea.
"He came? Did he say why he wanted to see me? Did he come empty-handed or with something?"
The doorman looked confused. What do you mean by bringing things or not? This is not a visit to relatives. Besides, do you, the princess, really care about such things?
"Of course he came with gifts. Master Lu said he had something very important to discuss with you, Princess."
When Li Mingyue heard that Lu Chen came with a gift, she felt even better. However, she said unhappily, "Humph, this shameless fellow actually has the nerve to come here in person!"
As she spoke, Li Mingyue lay down on the chaise longue again, and she hid well the fleeting joy on her face just now.
After taking a sip of the tea handed to her by the maid, Li Mingyue turned to the female official beside her and said, "Guizhi, do you think I should see her?"
Female official Zhang Guizhi said indignantly, "Of course he's gone. You're a wealthy woman, you can't just meet any random person. Besides, this Lu Chen has offended you before, and he hasn't been very respectful to you since. You can't be nice to someone like him!"
"And I heard this guy is cunning, lazy, greedy, and has no moral bottom line. He often sleeps with prostitutes, even young widows. How can we let such a person enter the princess's mansion? I will have him beaten up right now!"
Li Mingyue looked at her female official with a look of despair. No wonder the life in the princess's mansion has been getting worse and worse over the years. After all, she is surrounded by such a bunch of idiots!
The reason I asked you this question is to ask you to give me a way out, not to ask you to do things for me.
If you really beat him out, how can I and Lu Lang fly together in the future?
Besides, my Lu Lang is not as bad as you say. That's just the misunderstanding and unwarranted slander of him by outsiders. I spent so much time with him in the cell day and night. Don't I know what kind of person he is?
As for liking widows, this is such a great hobby. If Lu Lang doesn't like widows, how can I be qualified to be with him!
Looking at Zhang Guizhi's expression of loyalty and readiness to protect her master, Li Mingyue was almost furious.
She hooked her finger at Zhang Guizhi and said, "Guizhi, come here."
Zhang Guizhi thought Li Mingyue was going to tell her how hard to hit her, so she hurried forward and was slapped hard in the face.
"You bastard, I'm just asking you whether I should see you or not. When will it be your turn to make the decision for me? Master Lu is the Imperial Master, can someone like you just drive him away?"
Zhang Guizhi was stunned. This was different from the plot she had expected.
Whenever the princess mentioned Lu Chen before, hadn't she always gnashed her teeth, wishing she could eat him alive? Why did she suddenly change her attitude today?
Could it be that the rumors were true? Did something unspeakable really happen between the Princess and Master Lu during the time she was abducted?
When she thought of this, Zhang Guizhi began to tremble. She knew her master's temperament too well.
She knelt down and kowtowed hurriedly, saying, "It was my fault for talking too much."
After all, he is an old man who has been with her for many years. Although he is a bit stupid, there is no problem with his loyalty.
Li Mingyue waved her hand impatiently and said, "Alright, get up. Be more careful with your words next time. Go and invite Master Lu in. We can't let people think that people from the Princess' Mansion don't know how to behave."
