Chapter 110 Encountering a Handsome Man
The Second Prince was shocked to find out that the owner of the restaurant was the prince of a fallen country. Xia Miaoyuan also began to worry.
[The Liang Chaozong family has come to the capital. They will definitely take various actions to restore the country.]
[What should I do? I have to inform my father as soon as possible!]
At this time, Liang Chaozong had finished speaking, and the guests applauded.
In a blink of an eye, Liang Chaozong had walked off the stage, and six graceful dancers began to dance.
When the brother and sister were thinking hard, suddenly, a familiar male voice came over.
"Are there really no private rooms on the third floor?"
The waiter replied respectfully, "There really are no private rooms. How could I lie to you? The private rooms on the second floor are the same. I'll take you there."
The second prince looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the person who spoke was Dongfang Lingyun.
"Dongfang!"
As soon as he saw Dongfang Lingyun, the second prince seemed to forget his troubles in an instant and stood up to greet him.
He patted Dongfang's shoulder affectionately and said, "What are you busy with, kid? I sent you an invitation but you ignored me."
Dongfang Lingyun frowned and looked at him, then said coldly, "To the second prince." Before he could say
the word "prince", he suddenly remembered that he was outside the palace, and hurriedly changed his words and said, "Second Young Master, how are you?"
After saying hello, he deliberately turned around and pretended to leave.
"Dongfang, what's wrong with you? Did I offend you?" The second prince was puzzled and grabbed Dongfang's sleeve.
Dongfang's personal servant squinted at the second prince and whispered, "My young master has been like this for a while, please try to persuade him."
[Ahhh! Heaven! Earth! There is actually someone more handsome than the crown prince!]
Xia Miaoyuan was stunned by Dongfang Lingyun's appearance.
[Dongfang? Let me think about it, who is this? It's my brother's friend. Could it be the most handsome man in Daxia, Dongfang Lingyun? ! ]
[Oh, what a pity, although he is a handsome man in Daxia, he is a beauty with a tragic fate in the book. Tsk tsk tsk...]
Second Prince: Beauty with a tragic fate means that my brother will not live long?
The second prince pulled Dongfang back with force and said with a smile: "Come, let's have a good drink today."
After that, he asked the waiter to change a larger private room.
Dongfang sat opposite the second prince with his head down, and refused to speak in a sullen manner.
The second prince thought that he blamed himself for asking Dongfang to dress up as a down-and-out scholar to cooperate with him in acting last time, so he poured a glass of wine for Dongfang and said with a smile: "Dongfang, you don't miss me after not seeing you for a few months?"
Dongfang snorted coldly and said lightly: "I'm busy at work all day, where do I have time to miss you." The
second prince remembered that last time, because of their meritorious service in catching Wei Jianzhong, Dongfang was appointed as the official of the Inspectorate by Emperor Mingxi.
"Now that you have an official position, your grandfather and your father must be very happy, right? Don't you think you are a plaything and have lost your ambition?" The second prince raised his eyebrows.
Dongfang glanced at him angrily and said, "Well, the whole family is very happy, only I am not happy."
"Huh?" The second prince's eyes widened: "You have ignored me and turned your face to me recently, is it because of this?!"
Dongfang simply turned his head away and didn't look at the second prince.
The second prince shook his head in confusion. He really couldn't understand why someone was not happy after becoming an official?
The personal servant from the east whispered to the second prince: "Since my son became an official, he has been sulking all day long and crying in his room from time to time."
Xia Miaoyuan sat on a chair and leisurely took a bite of a piece of eight-treasure cake, and said in his heart: [Because he couldn't get up from bed for the morning court!]
Ah? It turned out to be because he couldn't get up from bed!
The second prince suddenly covered his mouth, and his mouth corners trembled from trying to hold back his laughter.
"I'm sorry." The second prince suppressed his laughter for a long time and finally said something.
Dongfang glanced at him and his eyes turned red. He said aggrievedly: "You liar! Didn't you say that the emperor would reward me if I helped you complete the task, but he gave me an official position instead."
The second prince whispered: "Official position is also a reward."
"Wuwuwu..." Dongfang actually cried: "If I had known earlier, I would not help you."
"Do you know how difficult it is to be this official?"
"I have to get up at three o'clock in the morning every day, and after the morning court, I have to go to the Inspectorate to be on duty."
"The Inspectorate is full of old men with big beards, and I am the only young man."
Dongfang said while wiping his tears.
"There are endless documents to write from morning to night! And I have to listen to the old men's meetings and their scoldings..."
"Wuwuwu... I just want to be a romantic, singing and drinking Dongfang Young Master! I don't want to go to work!"
[I feel so sorry for Dongfang Young Master. He used to live a carefree and pampered life, but suddenly one day, he was appointed to an official position and was forced to start a nine-to-five, oh no, a three-to-five life, and was forced to enter a dangerous workplace. I would not want to do this if it were me.]
Xia Miaoyuan looked at Dongfang crying and snot, and actually felt empathy.
The second prince had a dark line on his face: Sister, are you as useless as Dongfang?
The second prince suppressed his mouth corners desperately, took out a handkerchief and wiped Dongfang's tears: "Dongfang, you see, although it is hard to go to court and be on duty every day, it has a future."
"Think about it, what you do in the Inspectorate is very meaningful. In the Inspectorate, your whole life has become meaningful. Entering the court is the dream of many good men of the Great Xia."
[Second brother, you've had enough, I really didn't realize that you are so good at drawing cakes! ]
"Puff!" Xia Miaoyuan sprayed the eight-treasure cake in his mouth all over himself.
Dongfang Lingyun wiped his tears, punched the second prince a few times and said, "Who said that being an official is my dream! My dream is to be the most handsome man, the son of the East, and the singing god of Great Xia! Wuwuwu..."
Xia Miaoyuan patted his head: [Yes, in the book, he is the singing god of Great Xia. ]
Xia Miaoyuan recalled that in the book, Dongfang Lingyun was a super narcissistic young man from a noble family. He often participated in various singing, poetry, and tea parties because of his handsome appearance and good voice.
He was active in the social circle of young men and women from noble families for a long time. At a young age, he was regarded as the singing god of Daxia and the handsome man of Daxia.
[Alas, but beauty is short-lived. The fate of Mr. Dongfang in his previous life was really too miserable. ]
[After Master Jiang usurped the throne, he made his sister, the Empress Dowager, the eldest princess. ]
[Then this old witch completely let herself go and released her nature, and no longer pretended to be a dignified and chaste person. ]
[She searched for all the young handsome men in Daxia and took them all into her princess mansion. 】
【That kind of life, tsk tsk tsk... it's really a sin! 】 Xia Miaoyuan couldn't help but narrow her eyes when she said this.
Second Prince: Why do I feel that your words are not condemnation, but envy of this kind of life?
【How could the old witch let go of such a famous figure like the Eastern Young Master? 】
