Chapter 323 Making things difficult, not giving this princess face
There were two people standing not far away.
Prince An Beigong Yi quietly watched Beigong Sheng and Meng Zhiyun being so affectionate with each other, as if they were a couple from heaven.
It seems that they can no longer see anyone else but each other in their eyes.
Beigong Yi was frightened by this scene and rubbed the goose bumps on his hands, "I didn't know the King of Wei was so cheesy..."
Is love so complicated?
If Beigong Yi put himself in the same situation as other women, he would feel terrible.
His beggar's chicken, Buddha jumps over the wall, Dongpo pork and crab meat lion head are still the best.
Seeing that the people around him ignored him, Beigong Yi was about to ask her if she felt it was corny, when he suddenly remembered the rumors in Shengjing.
Oh no, he might be exposing someone's scars.
Beigong Yi scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed. "Um...why don't we go somewhere else?"
Lu Yun'an looked away and asked in confusion, "Why are you going somewhere else? Didn't you say you were going to release river lanterns here?"
Beigong Yi carefully analyzed her expression, but could not figure out what was going on, so he could only honestly say, "Prince Wei and Princess Nanxun are over there..."
Lu Yun'an said calmly, "We can't go if they are here?"
Beigong Yi really couldn't understand what Lu Yun'an was thinking at the moment, so he had to ask directly: "Do you mind?"
"Why should you mind?" Lu Yun'an looked calm as he picked up the river lantern in his hand and said, "Let's go, let's finish it sooner and go back sooner."
Unlike Beigong Sheng and Meng Zhiyun, they came out to play tonight purely out of helplessness.
Ever since the Queen Mother learned that they were granted marriage, she has been very concerned about it and often lets them spend more time together.
It was the Queen Mother who gave the order for Beigong Yi to take Lu Yun'an out for a walk during tonight's Lantern Festival.
It's a pity that the two of them together didn't look like a couple about to get married, but more like strangers who were just following the Queen Mother's decree.
Beigong Yi nodded, thinking it made sense, "Let's go."
He also missed the delicious food in the mansion very much.
The two found a spot next to the Lover's River and, like everyone else, wrote words on the river lanterns and put them into the river.
The two people looked at the river lanterns that were gradually disappearing into the distance. They were each thinking about different things and their expressions were focused. From a distance, they looked like they were praying devoutly, which attracted someone's attention.
After Meng Zhiyun and Beigong Sheng watched the river lanterns go away, they wanted to take him to see the lanterns.
Unexpectedly, when he looked up, he saw Beigong Sheng staring blankly at something not far away. "What are you looking at?"
"Nothing." Beigong Sheng immediately retracted his gaze and moved half of his body to block her view. "Let's go see the lanterns."
Beigong Sheng's unnecessary action aroused Meng Zhiyun's suspicion. She turned her head to look, and when she knew who Beigong Sheng was looking at, her originally gentle face instantly turned cold.
Lu Yunan!
How come I can meet her everywhere I go?
Beigong Sheng was still staring at her!
She knew that Beigong Sheng was still obsessed with his childhood sweetheart!
Meng Zhiyun's good mood tonight was gone. He clenched his palms, with a hint of sneer on his lips, "Isn't that Princess Yun'an and Prince An? It's rare to meet them, so why not go up and say hello."
As he said that, he walked straight past Beigong Sheng and towards Lu Yun'an.
"Zhiyun..."
Beigong Sheng felt something was wrong when he saw this. He wanted to stop her but didn't dare to show it too much. "The lanterns will be gone soon. Aren't we here tonight to see the lanterns? Don't delay us for others."
"This person is not someone else." Meng Zhiyun's eyes were filled with coldness, and she said with a fake smile: "Princess Yun'an has a great reputation. This princess really wants to get to know her."
As they were talking, the two of them had already arrived in front of Lu Yun'an and Beigong Yi.
"Princess Yun'an, wait a minute."
Meng Zhiyun blocked her way with a smile on his face, "I have heard of Princess Yun'an's name for a long time. I wonder if I can have the honor of inviting the princess to have a chat today?"
As a woman, Lu Yun'an was sensitive to Meng Zhiyun's hostility. She glanced at Beigong Sheng, who was full of embarrassment, calmly and understood what he meant.
She had a calm face and politely declined, "Thanks to Princess Nanxun for inviting me. I'm sorry that I can't come today. I'm sorry for letting you down."
"Yun An has something important to do, so I'll take my leave first."
Having said that, he was about to leave.
However, as soon as he raised his foot, Meng Zhiyun blocked the road.
"Princess Yun'an, are you giving this princess no face?" She sneered, adding a bit of aggressiveness.
"Is this how Beiliang treats guests? Is this how the Duke of Song and the Princess taught Princess Yun'an?"
As soon as Meng Zhiyun opened his mouth, he brought up the diplomatic relations between the two countries and the family education of the Duke of Song's Mansion. Even though Lu Yun'an had a calm personality, he had to frown.
Beigong Yi also looked unhappy. He was about to stand up and speak, but was stopped by Lu Yun'an.
Lu Yun looked at Meng Zhiyun quietly, "Princess Nanxun has the King of Wei to accompany her in Shengjing. If the princess feels bad in Shengjing, it is the King of Wei's fault. As for the education of my Duke of Song, you don't need to worry about it."
Beigong Sheng also hurried out to smooth things over, "Princess Yun'an is busy. If you really want to meet Princess Yun'an, you can do it another day. Why rush now?"
It would have been fine if Beigong Sheng didn't say anything, but once he started talking, Meng Zhiyun's emotions got even more intense. "Why? I just wanted to invite people to have tea and chat. Why are you stopping me?"
"Or do you feel bad for her? Do you think I'm making things difficult for her?"
Beigong Sheng frowned slightly, and seeing Meng Zhiyun starting to be unreasonable again, he felt a little annoyed.
He didn't understand why this person always changed his temper over and over again. He would get better after a while and then get angry again.
But for the sake of face, he had to endure it and pulled Meng Zhiyun aside to make way for Lu Yunan, "Zhiyun, let's talk about it when we get back."
"Why do you want to go back and talk about it? I think you feel sorry for her."
Meng Zhiyun sneered and looked at the two of them. "After all, it's a childhood sweetheart relationship. You really are on her side in your heart."
"Seeing me looking for her, you only stood on her side. Are you annoyed by me now? Do you want to rekindle your relationship with her?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Beigong Sheng's heartbeats were throbbing, and he couldn't understand why her mood changed so quickly. "Don't be unreasonable, you're making a fool of yourself."
Meng Zhiyun suddenly laughed, "I'm being unreasonable? You must be feeling guilty. Otherwise, why did you secretly meet her without telling me last time, and why did you secretly look at her again just now?"
"It's best not to have it. Now that you see she's going to marry someone else, you're itching to do it. You feel regretful, right? Or do you want to enjoy the blessing of having two wives, with women on both sides?"
"It's a pity that she has already granted the marriage. Even if you are thinking about it, you can only watch in vain!"
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Beigong Sheng scolded in a low voice, his face looking grim. Why is Meng Zhiyun so stupid?
How can you say such things casually?
Now that Lu Yun'an has been given to Beigong Yi by his father, it is against human ethics to covet his brother's wife. If such news gets out, it will bring shame to the royal family.
My father would never allow such a thing to happen.
"Why are you getting more and more outrageous? Lu Yun'an is the future Princess An, you can't talk nonsense!"
Beigong Sheng couldn't bear it any longer. Meng Zhiyun's trembling and intimidating attitude made him feel disgusted. "You weren't like this before. Why did your temperament change so much recently? I almost don't recognize you anymore."
