Chapter 1505 Arrange a Meeting
"Bullshit! That's Da Gan's rule, not our Luo Pan's rule."
Luo Lu immediately retorted unhappily.
"Prince Lu, don't be angry. As long as Emperor Gan issues an order to grant the marriage, we can create an opportunity for you and the princess to meet."
Luosha immediately comforted him.
"All right! I hope she's as beautiful in person as in the portrait, or don't blame me for ignoring her."
Luo Lu said with a wave of his hand.
Rakshasa immediately said:
"Princess Anping will definitely not let the prince down."
Gan Di and Lian Yi received the news of Luo Lu's arrival at the same time.
Emperor Gan summoned his trusted ministers into the palace again to discuss subsequent matters.
Duoduo went to get first-hand information about Luolu. After all, he was the nominal husband of her master. Only by knowing both herself and her enemy could she better carry out the next plan.
Prince Luolu rested for a night, and after getting himself cleaned up early the next morning, he went to the palace to meet Emperor Gan with the prepared gifts, and mentioned the matter of marriage by the way.
Luo Lu knew the purpose of his trip. Princess Anping's appearance and character were not within his consideration. He only needed to make sure that the three cities could be obtained smoothly. If he came to do something big at this time, he would actually be giving up the throne in disguise, so there must be no mistakes in marrying Princess Anping.
When Luolu met Emperor Gan, he behaved very politely and humbly, and stated the beautiful vision of peaceful coexistence between the two countries. He also expressed his attitude that he would take good care of Princess Anping.
"Your Majesty, in our Luopan country, a man can only have one wife, which is different from Da Gan's three wives and four concubines. After we get married, we will be loyal to each other, and our offspring, both male and female, can inherit the family business. I believe that the princess will be happier if she marries me."
After hearing Luo Lu's assurance, Emperor Gan's expression softened a lot. At least this custom of Luo Pan Kingdom was very beneficial to Anping.
"Your Majesty, in order to express my desire to marry you, I have prepared some gifts, hoping to make the princess smile."
Afterwards, Luo Lu asked the followers standing behind him to present the gifts to the front of the hall and explained them one by one, showing his sincerity.
Emperor Gan was very satisfied with Luolu's attitude and made it clear at the morning court that he would seriously consider the matter for the sake of friendship between the two countries.
Luo Lu also knew the rules of Dagan. Since Emperor Gan said so, the matter was almost certain, so he happily said that he would wait for Emperor Gan's order.
After Luo Lu left, Emperor Gan took the matter to the court for discussion as if it was a formality, and the tone of the matter had been set.
Duoduo also returned to Lianyi and told her master what happened in the morning court.
"Master, this Luolu is two meters tall, with a sturdy build, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He looks quite pretty and speaks very nicely. He only says what Emperor Gan likes to hear, and even raises the level of the marriage with you, but he doesn't mention a word about the city."
Lian Yi smiled and said:
"Luo Lu is a smart man. When the imperial edict comes down, he will definitely ask Emperor Gan for the city. By that time, the marriage will be a foregone conclusion. Even if Emperor Gan is unwilling, he will swallow his anger and agree to it."
"Master is right, and the gifts Luolu brought are also very valuable. There are horses, jade, and a kind of green salt that is a specialty of Luopan Country. It seems that they are full of sincerity."
"In order to marry the princess, even if it's just for show, Prince Luolu can't come empty-handed. After all, my dowry as a princess is very valuable. If you want to be on par with me, you naturally need something to show off."
Lian Yi said without any surprise.
"Master, Luo Lu has brought his personal guards with him. There are at least 500 of them. They came here under the pretext of escorting the marriage gift. They are all veterans who have experienced many battles and are very tough."
This is what Duoduo saw when she went to the posthouse by herself.
"Luo Lu must save his own life, otherwise who knows who will benefit if he takes me back!"
Lianyi said meaningfully.
"Master, what shall we do next?"
"Create an opportunity for Luo Lu to meet me."
"It's best to get Emperor Gan's arrangement for this matter."
"Well, I guess someone will come and pass on the message in a while."
Lianyi said as she touched Duoduo who had climbed back onto her wrist.
As soon as he finished speaking, Eunuch Lai Fu came to convey Emperor Gan's oral instructions.
"Princess Anping, His Majesty has sent me here to pass on his order, saying that a banquet will be held tonight to entertain Luo Pan's third prince Luo Lu, and he will be taken to the Imperial Garden for the princess to meet. If the princess is satisfied, His Majesty will issue an order. If the princess is not satisfied, His Majesty will find a way to shirk his responsibility."
Lian Yi listened to this beautiful speech, a trace of shyness flashed across her face, and then she responded:
"Thank you for passing on the message, eunuch. Anping knows about it and will be waiting in the Imperial Garden tonight."
"Okay, I won't delay the princess's preparations. I will report back to His Majesty right away."
Lai Fu replied with a smile and left Fengming Hall.
After everyone left, Lianyi instructed Yuejue:
"Let Cuizhu and Cuizhen help me change my clothes and put on my makeup. You two will go with me to meet Prince Luolu tonight."
"Yes, Princess!"
On the other hand, Lai Fu inadvertently revealed to Luo Lu's entourage that Princess Anping had the habit of taking a walk in the Imperial Garden after dinner, and Prince Luo Lu was also very much looking forward to the dinner that day.
When it was getting slightly dark, Lianyi took her personal maid to the imperial garden.
The Imperial Garden was very large, and she didn't want to walk too far, so she chose a pavilion to sit down and wait for Luo Lu to come to her.
After watching the song and dance performance at the dinner, Luo Lu used the excuse that he had drunk two too many glasses and wanted to go to the bathroom, so he temporarily left the hall with his entourage, and then, under the guidance of the palace maid, came to the imperial garden to get rid of the alcohol.
Luo Lu heard a string of silver bell-like laughter coming from the pavilion from afar, then he immediately took two quick steps and saw a graceful red figure.
"Prince, that should be Princess Anping."
Luo Lu's followers immediately said excitedly.
"Shut up! You don't even need to tell me that. Be well behaved when this time comes. Don't act like a sex-hungry ghost and insult me. If you can't win the favor of Princess Anping, I'll chop you into pieces and feed you to the wolves."
Luo Lu scolded in a low voice.
The two followers were shocked, and immediately restrained their facial expressions and bowed in response.
Luo Lu straightened his clothes, put on what he thought was his most handsome smile, and then walked towards the pavilion.
"Who are you? Why are you trespassing into the Imperial Garden?"
Yue Jue took a step forward and stood in front of Lian Yi, asking unhappily to Luo Lu and the other two who had approached rashly.
Luo Lu bowed and responded politely:
"I'm sorry, I'm Luolu, the third prince of Luopan. I was invited to attend the palace banquet today. I can't hold my liquor, so I brought my followers here to cool off. I'm not a bad person. It's my fault for disturbing you three."
"So it's Prince Luolu. I heard my father mention you today."
Lianyi's gentle voice reached Luolu's ears. Yuejue also stepped aside politely and revealed the face of her princess.
Luo Lu's eyes lit up immediately after seeing Lian Yi's true face, and then he immediately put away the surprise in his eyes and asked politely:
"Is that Princess Anping?"
See you tomorrow~
