Chapter 354: Dinner
"Wanwan can actually speak now?" Song Zhuo lifted his feet and walked towards this side.
But only at this moment did he see Qiong Hua squatting beside Lu Xingwan.
Lu Xingwan just stared at Song Zhuo, watching his reaction, trying to see through his heart.
Song Zhuo, however, no longer felt the same discomfort as before when he saw Qiong Hua. He did not stop until he reached the two of them. He then stopped and looked at Qiong Hua: "So Miss Qiong Hua also came with His Majesty."
Qiong Hua was naturally not the kind of person who would be shy, so he immediately stood up and bowed to Song Zhuo: "Mr. Song."
Lu Xingwan raised her little head, looked at Song Zhuo, and then looked at Sister Qionghua.
[Don’t tell me, Sister Qionghua is so pretty, and Brother Song Zhuo is also handsome, the two of them are a perfect match! ]
Song Qingyan listened to Lu Xingwan's words in surprise and wanted to go up and pat her on the head.
Qionghua is a fairy! How can a mortal like Song Zhuo be able to marry her?
I couldn't help but worry in my heart. My Wanwan is also a little fairy. What should I do if it comes to the stage of discussing marriage in the future?
[No, no, doesn’t Sister Qionghua like Master? ]
[Let’s give the stubborn Master a chance. As for Brother Song Zhuo, of course he should be left to Guo Yueshao! ]
Song Qingyan listened to Lu Xingwan reciting the music score and walked out quickly.
"Is Zhuoge awake?"
A few people gathered together and talked for a while before it was time for dinner.
Because the Emperor of Great Chu would continue his journey south tomorrow, and the rest of the people would have to return to their respective positions, so everyone had dinner together that night.
It was exceptionally lively.
It was rare for the Emperor of Great Chu to dine at such a large table. Perhaps because it was new, or perhaps because things in De'an County had already been resolved, his mood improved a lot.
Naturally, since it was not a formal banquet and it was not held in the palace, the Emperor of Great Chu was less concerned with many rules and regulations.
Even the serving maids were seated at the table, and the Emperor of Chu himself could only serve his own food.
Instead, Lu Xingwan was sitting happily on the side, leaning back in the chair with her little feet fluttering.
[Wow, this is what equality for all looks like! ]
[In the past, in the world of immortal cultivation, people were divided into different positions according to their level of cultivation. It was not like this, where everyone was so happy together.]
[Speaking of which, my master is a big shot in the world of immortal cultivation, so he can naturally protect me.]
[Now that I am in this mortal world, my father is such a wise and powerful emperor, so of course he can protect me. ]
[In that case, my luck is pretty good! ]
The Great Chu Emperor raised the wine cup in front of him and said, "Thank you for your hard work in De'an County these days. I hope everyone will have a safe journey tomorrow."
After saying that, he turned to look at Prime Minister Lin and said, "I will leave the affairs of De'an County to you."
"When I return to the palace, I will listen to your report and your achievements."
Prime Minister Lin nodded in agreement. Letting a prime minister work in a county town really shows how much the Emperor of Great Chu values De'an County.
After tomorrow, it will be time for everyone to go their separate ways.
The second prince naturally had to return to Beijing, and he would bring Lin Xiaochun and his family with him.
Naturally, the Minister of Revenue, Du Shan, was also traveling with them.
Song Zhuo, of course, had to return to the Western Camp to explain His Majesty's intentions to Marquis Dingguo.
Prime Minister Lin will stay in De'an County to deal with the problems left over by Jiang Pingyue over the years and restore De'an County to its former appearance.
And Pei Chuyan, of course, would do as he said and continue heading south along with Lu Xingwan.
Protecting Lu Xingwan is still his first priority.
That night, the Emperor of Great Chu actually stayed in Lady Yue's room for the first time.
When the Emperor of Great Chu arrived, Yue Guiren had already gone to bed. When she learned that His Majesty was coming, she hurriedly got up, changed her clothes, and began to serve.
Even her maid Xiaokui couldn't help getting excited and even spilled the water while pouring it. However, the Emperor of Great Chu didn't care and just told her to wipe it clean and leave.
The Emperor of Great Chu and Lady Yue naturally had a romantic night.
Song Qingyan was also not idle.
After returning to the room, she was still restless and finally couldn't help it and asked Jinyu to call Song Zhuo over.
"Your Majesty, it's so late, the young master must have gone to bed already." Jinyu reminded.
Song Qingyan was determined to see Song Zhuo: "No problem, call him over and tell him I have something to ask him."
[My sister Jinyu, please go quickly! ]
[If mother doesn’t see Brother Song Zhuo tonight, she will probably not be able to sleep! ]
"Aunt." Song Zhuo came quickly. Perhaps because he was worried about Song Qingyan, he asked as soon as he entered the room, "What's wrong, aunt?"
Song Qingyan laughed: "Why? Auntie can't see you if she's fine?"
Song Zhuo waved his hands hurriedly: "Aunt, that's not what I meant."
[Look at how dumb Brother Song Zhuo is at talking. I'm afraid he's like this when he's chasing girls! ]
[It’s hard for Brother Song Zhuo to confess his feelings to Sister Qionghua. ]
【I didn’t expect to be rejected. 】
[What's the saying in the storybook? Being an extrovert once will lead to being an introvert for life. ]
When Song Qingya heard Lu Xingwan's words, she couldn't help but hold her forehead. For the first time, she had the same idea as the Emperor of Great Chu. What kind of weird stories did Wanwan read in the past?
"Song Zhuo, I called you here just to ask you," Song Qingyan said seriously, "What are your feelings towards Qiong Hua now?"
When Song Zhuo heard Qiong Hua's name, he shook his head awkwardly, "This... nephew doesn't know either."
Song Qingyan continued to ask: "Then let me ask you, when you see Qiong Hua again, do you feel uncomfortable or uncomfortable?"
Song Zhuo thought for a moment and shook his head: "If you say it's the feeling of seeing Qiong Hua again, my nephew just feels like a lifetime ago."
Song Qingyan nodded and stopped asking about it.
Looking at Song Zhuo's appearance, it's time to let it go.
After all, he is a member of the Song family and a broad-minded person. After being rejected, he did not dwell on it and digested the rejection on his own.
But he let it go, which is for the best.
There is always a more suitable one waiting for him ahead.
Song Qingyan asked again: "Have you met Miss Guo?"
Speaking of Guo Yueshao, Song Zhuo's face flashed with regret: "I never thought that Guo Ping would be demoted to Jinhu County by her father. It's a pity for a noble lady like Guo Yueshao."
Song Zhuo shook his head when he said this: "Jinhu County is really not a stable place."
[Brother Song Zhuo felt sorry for him! Considering what this lackey had done for Cui Wen in the past.]
[I was surprised that my father didn't kill him.]
[Demoted to Jinhu County, it was a chance for him.]
[If he can't even seize this opportunity, he may never have a chance to turn things around in the future.]
