Chapter 311 The Princess of the Dandy World Just Wants to Show Off 7
The two men sat opposite each other, and Xie Wuyu looked Lu Feiyu up and down.
Lu Feiyu is a very typical Dayun Dynasty man, with handsome features, slim figure, and a natural elegance in his every move.
It's no surprise that people like it.
Xie Wuyu retracted his gaze, picked up the kettle and poured him a cup of tea, "What did Mr. Lu Ce want to ask me to do today?"
Lu Feiyu looked at the cup of tea without moving. He just smiled and said, "Nothing much. I just heard that the Third Princess chose Master Xie, and I have something to say that I can't help but express."
"Oh?" Xie Wuyu raised his eyebrows slightly, "Mr. Lu Ce, please feel free to speak."
Lu Feiyu sat up straight, his eyes burning, and said firmly, "I hope Mr. Xie can take the initiative to cancel this marriage."
"Heh." Xie Wu Yu laughed briefly. "Are you kidding me, my husband? His Majesty has issued an order to choose a husband for the princess. Whoever is chosen is honored. How can I withdraw just because I want to?"
Lu Feiyu also smiled and said meaningfully, "Others may not be able to do this, but you are the son of the Xie family, there is nothing you can't do. Otherwise, why has the imperial decree for marriage not been issued for so long?"
Xie Wuyu's smile faded slightly.
"The Xie family and the royal family have always been complementary to each other. Your Majesty and the Duke of Fuguo are rare confidants. The Crown Princess is your elder brother. If you really don't want to, they will naturally plead for you. As long as the imperial decree has not been issued, it won't be difficult to take back the order."
Lu Feiyu spoke to himself.
Xie Wuyu picked up the teacup and took a sip. The clear tea went down his throat and suppressed his anger. He smiled and asked, "But why should I break off the engagement? What good will it do me?"
"Mr. Xie is a man of noble character and noble family background. He doesn't need to cling to anyone. Why not choose a man you like?"
When talking about "family background", Lu Feiyu's tone couldn't help but carry a hint of subtle resentment.
"It does make sense at first glance." Xie Wuyu gently put down the teacup and looked at him leisurely, "But how do you know that the Third Princess is not my beloved?"
"Because she likes me." Lu Feiyu said firmly.
He stared at Xie Wu Yu and said in a deep voice, "It is impossible for her to have any feelings for you in her life. You will be a widow if you marry her. Why bother?"
Bad words may hurt people, but it is good if they can give you temporary relief.
Lu Feiyu had been holding it in for too long, and he became annoyed when he saw Xie Wuyu acting so effortlessly in front of him. He just wanted to tear off his disguise, watch him change color, and watch him lose his composure.
But he was still disappointed.
Xie Wuyu's expression did not change at all after hearing his harsh provocation.
Instead, he laughed quietly.
Lu Fei suddenly felt like punching cotton and said with suppressed anger, "What are you laughing at?"
"I laugh at you for deceiving yourself."
"What?!"
Lu Feiyu's eyes were fixed.
Xie Wuyu stroked the flower pattern on the cup wall with his fingertips and said with a smile, "If you were so confident, you wouldn't have come here today to persuade me to break off the engagement. If she's not attracted to me, then what difference would it make to you if I married her?"
"Of course there is." Lu Feiyu clenched his hands tightly in his sleeves, and pretended to be calm. "Although she won't love you, you are the legal husband and you always suppress me. I don't like it. You thank Wu Yu and Er Lang. You have everything you want, so why do you have to compete with me?"
"You're wrong again."
Xie Wu Yu looked at him sympathetically, "If she really liked you so much, why didn't she help you become her legal husband? Why did she choose me? Doesn't this just prove that you don't mean enough to her?"
"I……"
Without waiting for Lu Feiyu to speak, Xie Wuyu continued, "If that's the case, how can you be sure that she won't fall in love with someone else, Mr. Lu?"
"Thank you!"
Lu Feiyu felt a poke in the sore spot and stood up suddenly, his face flushed, he took a breath and started coughing.
Xie Wuyu raised his eyebrows, "Just tell the truth, don't be so angry, it will make you look like I'm bullying you."
After hearing this, Lu Feiyu started coughing even more violently.
His hands were tightly gripping the edge of the table, his knuckles turning white.
"Speaking of which, if the Third Princess knew that you took the initiative to persuade me to cancel the engagement, what would she think?"
Xie Wu Yu looked at him meaningfully, "You keep saying that she loves you, but what about you? Have you ever thought about her before you do anything? If a princess of the imperial family is rejected by a minister, I'm afraid people will laugh at her for a long time if the news gets out, right?"
Lu Feiyu gritted his teeth, "I..."
"That's enough."
The tightly closed door of the private room was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
Lu Feiyu was startled and immediately turned around, and saw Mingnan, dressed in a gorgeous dress, appearing at the door.
The royal blue dress with gold embroidery was dazzling and set off her extraordinary demeanor.
Among the royal women, Mingnan was one of the taller ones. But although she was tall, she was not stout. She had a well-proportioned figure and looked good in any clothes.
With her hair in a long bun and a seven-phoenix golden crown on her head, she looked very oppressive when she was serious.
Lu Feiyu's pupils trembled, and his face turned pale. He murmured, "Your Highness..."
Danzhu and Biqing were standing at the door with four guards, all looking at him unfriendly. Du Yao, who had been captured and had his mouth covered, looked at him with guilt and despair in his eyes.
So, how long had she been listening at the door?
What did you hear?
The more Lu Feiyu thought about it, the more scared he became. He even broke out in a cold sweat in this hot summer day.
On the contrary, Xie Wuyu stood up leisurely and bowed to Mingnan calmly: "I have met Your Highness. I wonder if Your Highness is happy with today's show?"
Mingnan glanced at him and said meaningfully, "Very happy."
[You've even plotted against me, just wait for me. ]
Xie Wuyu's eyebrows twitched slightly.
He can really hear the other person's voice.
But he just has to wait. He hasn't done anything wrong, so what is there to be afraid of?
He sneered silently, stood up and pretended to be innocent, and even took a step to the side to leave space for Mingnan and Lu Feiyu so that he could watch the show secretly.
"Did you do this on purpose?" Lu Feiyu reacted and stared at him in disbelief.
Xie Wu Yu said nothing, just smiled slightly.
Lu Feiyu clenched his teeth, his mind racing, and suddenly turned around and knelt down in front of Mingnan.
Mingnan lowered his eyes and looked at him, "Mr. Lu, you are so brave."
"Fei Yu acted on his own initiative and was blinded by jealousy. He made such a big mistake. Fei Yu has no excuse, but..."
He raised his head, looked at Mingnan with tearful eyes, and said softly: "Fei Yu also took this bad approach because he loves His Highness too much."
"Your Highness..." He carefully reached out his hand and grabbed Mingnan's sleeve, choking with grievance, "I know I have many shortcomings. If Your Highness doesn't like it, I will change it. I will change everything. Please don't marry him, okay?"
"I have nothing but Your Highness. I will accept any beatings or punishments Your Highness wants to give me. I only ask Your Highness not to abandon me."
He cried with tears falling one by one, looking so touching.
If the original owner were still alive, he would probably forgive him after hearing him say that he had nothing.
In his previous life, he always used this sentence to brainwash the original owner. Because the original owner's father died early and she lived under someone else's roof, this sentence had a great impact on her.
Unfortunately, the original owner died, and the one standing in front of him was Mingnan.
