Luo Lingyu said with difficulty: "It's not what you think..."

Jinyue looked at her steadily and said, "My lady, my husband asked me to tell you that if you go to the banquet tonight, he will tell you something; if you don't go, you will regret it later."

Luo Lingyu: ...Pooh!

She didn't want to meet Lu Sanlang, and didn't want to face that kind of embarrassment and regret. When she saw him, she remembered the way they first met, what she did in front of him, and how many times she had lost face... and she didn't take Lu Sanlang's threats to her seriously. The two of them had no intersection, and she didn't believe he had the time to interfere in her affairs. Luo Lingyu gently brushed the hair by her ears and said firmly: "I won't go, I want to teach Lian Qiniang to dance."

Luo Yunhua said pitifully: "Sister, I think..."

Luo Lingyu: "Huan'er also wants to learn piano."

Luo Yunhuan covered her face: "No, I don't want to..."

But no one listened to her anymore.

No one knows who was the one who got the gossip, but the news that Luo Lingyu had rejected Lu Sanlang's invitation to the banquet spread throughout the Lu family in no time. Lu Sanlang was rejected for the first time when he invited a girl, and the men in the Lu family felt... pretty good -

"It's the first time I see my third brother embarrassed in front of a woman. I'm so happy."

"It turns out that cousin Luo is so noble and upright that she is not moved by beauty!"

For nearly half a month, Luo Lingyu was busy composing music and choreography to prepare for the "Flower God Selection". Luo Lingyu had not seen Lu Sanlang since the last banquet. Lu Sanlang's words "You will regret it" conveyed by Jinyue made Luo Lingyu worried for two days at first, but she was relieved when she found that nothing happened. Luo Lingyu concentrated on choreography with Lian Qiniang. While her dancing skills improved greatly after being lazy for many years, Lian Qiniang's daily joy when she saw this girl turned into fear in the later stage——

"Flying! Light and graceful! We love the lightness of the wind. How can you let others see you when you are so heavy?"

"Hold your legs higher!"

"Stand up straight! When I say soft, I don't mean you should be boneless like a snake!"

"Wrong again, try again!"

Lian Qiniang was beaten by Luo Lingyu all day long: Oh, this girl is too scary when she is serious...

While Luo Lingyu was busy with her dance, Lu Yun was also overwhelmed by a bunch of tedious political affairs. Chen Wang Liu Chu offended Hengyang Wang, who put pressure on him in various ways and took advantage of his majesty's favor to squeeze the people around Chen Wang. Chen Wang Liu Chu was used to doing things without saying anything, and his confidants were hit hard by Hengyang Wang's faction. The worst of them was Lu Yun, who had just taken office. Lu Yun had just taken on the position of the deputy chief of the imperial guards, and before he could figure out anything, he was dragged into the fight between the two factions - no, it should be just a one-sided fight.

Prince Chen, who was bullied by Prince Hengyang, went to capture the bandits in the suburbs of Jianye.

It's just a matter of giving in step by step, as long as Prince Hengyang is happy.

Seeing him in such a state, the young masters felt sorry for him and said, "Father is too fond of Prince Hengyang! Let us go and plead for him!"

Knowing the inside story, King Chen shook his head and said, "No need."

He was taking the bullying from the King of Hengyang on behalf of his father, so that the King of Hengyang would not doubt his father's intentions. His father knew what wrongs he had suffered. Instead of crying, it would be better to let His Majesty feel guilty. After all, once the emperor feels guilty, he will always compensate him double...

However, this continuous busy schedule made Chen Wang Liu Chu forget the day when Zhou Yangling, the daughter of the famous scholar Zhou Tan, came to Jianye. He was busy catching bandits outside during the day, and only when he returned home and heard the reminder from his retainers did he know that Zhou Yangling had come to Jianye. However, at the dock, Chen Wang and Lu Sanlang did not show up.

When the people in Prince Chen's mansion remembered and rushed to the dock, they could not find where Miss Zhou and her group had gone. The people in Prince Chen's mansion were also surprised: "Sir, you and Sanlang both said that Miss Zhou is a rare beauty. We thought that she must have caused some sensation like the cousin of the Lu family who entered Jianye that day..."

The beauty stands on the shore, stunningly beautiful.

So the people who went to pick him up from Prince Chen's mansion were not in a hurry. But when they arrived at the dock, they found that no one was waiting.

Liu Chu, who had just returned home and hadn't even had a cup of tea and was thirsty, suddenly felt dizzy and choked: "..."

He asked, "Sanlang, have you forgotten...the date?"

The people from Prince Chen's Mansion nodded solemnly, "It seems that Sanlang has been busy all day and has completely forgotten about Miss Zhou."

Liu Chu rubbed his forehead and said, "Send someone to look for him."

Jianye was so small, and Zhou Yangling was born in a commoner family, so she would not have any old friends to help her in Jianye. Where could a weak woman alone go?

After sending someone to look for him, King Chen drank a cup of tea, changed his clothes, and decided to go to Lu's mansion. After a busy day, Lu Sanlang just came back to rest for a while. He had just come out of the bath, with long black hair, loose robes, and a white and jade-like chest. He leaned on the couch and closed his eyes for a while, and then he heard Jinyue say that King Chen was here.

Let's not talk about it anymore. After the maids left and made sure that the stuttering problem would not be known to others, King Chen spoke hurriedly and stutteringly about the fact that he couldn't find Zhou Yangling. Lu Sanlang was nonchalant and didn't care: "Don't worry, that girl is very smart. Even if it's her first time in Jianye, she won't lose herself..."

King Chen: "I heard you say that she is weak and sickly... Ridiculous! If she is weak and sickly, how can she run around?"

Lu Yun raised his eyebrows: "People also say that my cousin Luo is gentle and elegant. Do you think she is like that?"

Chen Wang's heart skipped a beat: "..."

What Lu Sanlang said meant that the girl was two-faced.

King Chen felt a little relieved. As long as Zhou Yangling was fine and nothing happened, it would be fine... After feeling relieved, King Chen had time to listen to Lu Yun's other things. It was only when Liu Chu mentioned it that Lu Yun remembered something. Lu Sanlang got up from the couch and took a wooden box from the square shelf behind the couch. Sitting back on the couch, facing Liu Chu's puzzled eyes, Lu Yun explained calmly, "Years ago, I opened a glass workshop to let people study 'glass'. Do you still remember this?"

King Chen nodded.

"Liuli" is produced in the Western Regions. It is an imported product and has always been expensive. There is no market for it. Today, the South and the North are at odds. With the North blocking the way, trade between the South and the Western Regions is much more difficult. Lu Sanlang is uneducated and has no skills. He simply found a master and opened a "Liulifang" to study and produce Liuli himself. As long as the research is successful, regardless of Lu Yun's own wealth, the nobles in the South will certainly pursue it.
