Lian Mu Han and others also came over. He was never domineering and gave a thumbs up: "In my opinion, the princess's paintings are unprecedented and will never be surpassed."
Dongfang Ruoxue blushed when she heard this, and she half lowered her head and said, "Sir, you are too kind..."
"Oh, that's not wrong at all. If I were to say, all those painters inside and outside the palace should worship you as their teacher. They are nothing but children in front of you..." Lian Muhan became more and more excited as he spoke. He really thought the painting was good.
He didn't know how his unintentional words would create ripples in other people's hearts.
Lou Wanyue was standing nearby, her eyes scanning the area all the time. She had been searching for a long time but hadn't seen the figure she had been thinking about day and night. She couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Everyone was here, so where had he gone?
How could she know that at this moment, Dongfang Run was facing Dongfang Ye with a faint smile on his face: "King Kang, I'm so sorry, I came down at the wrong time."
Dongfang Ye's face was extremely grim, but he couldn't say anything bad, so he said coldly: "Dongfang Prince, is there something wrong?"
"I came here to visit Miss An on behalf of my sister, but I didn't expect to ruin King Kang's good fortune. King Kang is really a romantic and passionate man. As the old saying goes, a gentleman dreams of a beautiful lady..."
Dongfang Ye did not expect Dongfang Run to praise him. For a moment he could not understand what he meant. Did he approve of his behavior? But looking at his expression it did not seem like that. Was this sarcasm?
Dongfang Ye snorted coldly when he thought of this: "Thank you for the compliment, Prince."
“But this behavior is no different from that of a rogue, and is not what a gentleman does. If Prince Kang does this again, don’t blame me for being merciless…” Dongfang Run finally turned around and left with a cold face.
Dongfang Ye looked at his back, snorted coldly with hatred, and slapped the boulder with his palm, which made him gasp in shock. Is this a bad year for him?
Such a good opportunity was ruined by someone, Dongfang Run?
He was not afraid of him. Would he go and tell his father about this matter?
Normally, he was a carefree person, so why did he come and meddle with me?
Dongfang Ye was feeling depressed.
Lou Wanyue saw Dongfang Run walking out of the woods with a look of sullenness on his face. She didn't know why. Did someone make him angry?
The banquet continues.
The wine and food were also brought up. The wine was fruit wine soaked with plums, sweet and sour, like honey water. An Qingran also drank two glasses, and a smile appeared on her face.
There was always a melancholy look on Dongfang Ruoxue's face, and no one knew what she was thinking.
Lou Wanyue stepped forward and said, "Princess, the painting in your hand has attracted the attention of countless people. Who do you plan to give it to?"
Dongfang Ruoxue thought about it, but before she could say anything, Lian Muhan came over. It was Ben An who came over and said, "Cousin, I haven't been to the general's mansion for many days. Is my little cousin feeling better?"
He knew that Mingchen had been poisoned, and he went to see him at that time. An Qingran nodded: "It's healed now..."
"What have you been busy with recently?" An Qingran asked Lian Muhan, because in her eyes, he was elusive all day long.
Just like the prince.
Lian Muhan smiled: "I've been studying at home recently. They say that beauty is found in books, but I haven't found it..."
Still with a nonchalant look on his face, he turned his head and saw Dongfang Ruoxue, then smiled, "My princess, how are you?"
He only said a simple greeting, but Dongfang Ruoxue smiled: "Thank you for your concern, everything is fine. Ever since we met at the Queen's birthday banquet last time, I have been grateful for your life-saving grace, and I have no way to repay you. If the princess doesn't mind this painting today, just regard it as a token of Ruoxue's love..."
"Wow, it's for me?" Lian Muhan looked surprised. He took the painting and nodded continuously. "It's really a great reward. I like it."
He was smiling and grinning, and in An Qingran's eyes, her cousin was not serious at all, but she admitted that he was smart.
Dongfang Ruoxue smiled, and even Mu Han didn't stay for long. Instead, he turned around and waved his hand towards Dongfang Jin. He was showing off.
Lou Wanyue pushed Dongfang Ruoxue and said, "Is the princess really just here to thank you for saving her life?"
"What are you talking about?" Dongfang Ruoxue's face turned even redder.
Lou Wanyue smiled even more brightly: "I am saying good things. Although my paintings are not as good as those of Princess Dongfang, they are also the paintings of a first-class painter!"
She said and giggled.
Dongfang Ruoxue snorted, "You are so naughty. You are so old and about to get married, but you are still not serious. Let me tell you, the Queen said that she would marry you to the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince is over there, why don't you go and take a look?"
Lou Wanyue got anxious when she heard this: "When did the Queen say that? How come I didn't know? Besides, the Queen will never let me be her daughter-in-law again. She's here..."
"Hey, why did you involve the onlookers? I didn't say anything." An Qingran was thinking about what had just happened and was feeling upset, but they started joking.
"That's the rumor. Others can say it but I can't?"
"Others can say it, but you are not allowed to!" An Qingran finally felt a little embarrassed, "Then Prince Dongfang is here, if you want to say anything, just say it loudly."
"What does it have to do with my brother?" Dongfang Ruoxue asked doubtfully, then glanced at Lou Wanyue and smiled.
Lou Wanyue refused and started to hit An Qingran, but An Qingran turned around and ran away, leaving her no place to be hit. Lou Wanyue was ashamed and annoyed that her secrets had been discovered, but she didn't expect that when she was chasing after him, she fell into someone's arms. When she looked carefully, it was Dongfang Run. She almost fell to the ground and wanted to die, while An Qingran was jumping and teasing her not far away. Fortunately, no one else saw it, otherwise who knows what kind of rumors would be spread.
Dongfang Run helped Lou Wanyue steady herself and took a step back. Then she nodded calmly, turned around and walked away.
Lou Wanyue was looking at his back as he was still standing there stupidly. Just now, her fingertips touched the warmth of his palm. Although it was only for a moment, it made her heart beat fast and she didn't know what to do.
An Qingran walked up and bumped her arm: "Cousin, you are so far away, what are you looking at?"
Lou Wanyue turned her head and glared at her: "You are so quick to talk."
"Hey, swear to God, can you please say something about me first?" An Qingran came forward with a smile, and Dongfang Ruoxue also came over.
"You two, instead of wasting time bickering, why don't you drink a couple more glasses of wine with me? This plum wine can remove dampness and heat. I see you two are really mad." She covered her mouth and laughed at the joke.
The group walked out of the woods, talking and laughing, and drank together. Some people continued to play the game of pitching pots, while others were deep in thought, and no one knew whether they were writing poetry or conceiving a painting.
An Qingran took a look and didn't see Dongfang Ye. She didn't know whether he was ashamed to see her or had done something bad again.
