After saying this, Li Mingyue said to the maid beside her, "Go and get some more fruits and vegetables. Try to pick the best quality ones!"
Seeing the eldest princess personally giving orders and instructing everyone on every detail, the corners of Zhang Guizhi's mouth twitched.
This isn't a meeting with the Imperial Master at all; this is clearly a meeting with a lover!
I am really stupid. I can't even understand this. I deserve to be beaten!
Soon Lu Chen was brought up. Li Mingyue looked at the box in Lu Chen's hand through the gauze curtain, and her heart was naturally filled with joy.
Although Zhang Guizhi's ability to read people's expressions is average, she still has the ability to flatter the powerful and bully the weak.
Since her master cared so much about Lu Chen, Zhang Guizhi immediately praised him, saying, "Master Lu is so thoughtful. You even prepared a gift for our princess when you came to visit. What is this?"
This was asked on behalf of Li Mingyue. Zhang Guizhi knew that Li Mingyue must be very curious about what was in the box.
Lu Chen calmly opened the box in front of everyone, and instantly everyone's eyes were filled with jewels and precious stones.
The dazzling light caused everyone to be momentarily dazed. After a moment, when everyone had recovered, Lu Chen spoke again, "Today, I went to the Huaiyin Marquis's mansion to search the property and found some nice jewelry. I thought of sending it to the princess."
Zhang Guizhi's hands were shaking with excitement. These were not just nice pieces of jewelry at all. Each one of them could be considered a family heirloom of the Marquis' Mansion.
Even though Li Mingyue is the eldest princess, she doesn't have treasures of this level.
Thinking of this, Zhang Guizhi planned to step forward and take the things.
No matter what the relationship between the eldest princess and Lu Chen is, the benefits must be obtained first.
However, before Zhang Guizhi could step forward, Lu Chen casually and disdainfully threw these priceless treasures aside in full view of everyone.
Just as everyone was stunned, Lu Chen's slightly magnetic voice slowly began to speak: "I originally thought that these jewels would definitely enhance your beauty when worn by the Princess. But after seeing you in person, I realized that I was wrong, absolutely wrong!"
"You are the most beautiful person in the world. No matter how beautiful the jewelry is, it will pale in comparison to you. Wearing these vulgar things on you will only humiliate your status. You yourself are the most perfect treasure in the world."
As he spoke, Lu Chen pulled out an ordinary wooden hairpin from his head and said, "Extra jewelry on you would only make it look superfluous, but I can't meet you empty-handed. This hairpin is something I've carried with me since I started practicing Taoism. It's become connected to my aura. Please accept it, Princess."
Looking at the hairpin in Lu Chen's hand and then at the pious expression on his face, Zhang Guizhi couldn't help but exclaim in her heart.
"Fuck, he really is that good!"
