"General Chu means ......," Dongling Shuo faintly guessed Chu Nanyue's reminder.

"Yes, let's create more opportunities for the eighth princess. The eighth princess has seen few people since she was a child, and in such an environment, she has been bored for too long. If you can give her a birthday party, even if she can't find any wishful husband, it can also breathe and make her feel better. Chu Nanyue nodded.

"It was my brother's negligence that I didn't even think of this." Dongling Shuo felt that Chu Nanyue was really delicate.

In a few words, they made a plan.

Tanglin Jue's fourteenth birthday is a woman's gift in Tanglin.

Speaking of which, this is not a trivial matter, so when Tanglin Shuo proposed to hold a birthday banquet for Dongling Jue, the emperor and empress were very supportive.

Dongling Shuo was busy in the palace, and occasionally Chu Nanyue also came to help, they didn't hide it from Dongling Jue, but they didn't talk about it deeply.

So Dongling Jue only knew that she would have an extremely grand birthday banquet, but she didn't know that on that day, almost all men of the right age and ministers of the court would come to her banquet, and she was the only protagonist.

On the day of the birthday party.

Chu Nanyue sat in front of Dongling Jue's dresser and dressed up Dongling Jue himself.

Dongling Jue seemed to have not seen too many people for a long time, and she looked nervously outside from time to time, as if she was worried about her performance in the future.

"Sister Chu, I'm so scared, I'm going to make a fool of myself." Dongling Jue said with a bitter face.

"Don't be afraid, princess, today is the most beautiful woman, today is your gift." Chu Nanyue looked at the delicate Donglin Jue Dao in the mirror.

After Dongling Jue was finally appeased, he walked out with the support of Chu Nanyue and several palace maids and sat on the main seat of the hall.

In fact, neither Tanglin Hong nor Tanglin Yan came today, only Tanglin Shuo has been greeting the guests who came today.

And Chu Nanyue was sitting next to Dongling Jue, taking care of her all the time, while watching the interactions between the invited guests and Dongling Jue.

Because Tanglin Jue is the protagonist today, those men must have to toast to Tanglin Jue.

Chu Nanyue knew that many of them mainly wanted to give the royal family a face, so even the wine was hastily respected, and after not sitting for long, he directly found an excuse to slip away.

Zhao Jingyu also felt that his face was not good-looking, and he was not even respectful of wine, so he left the table first.

Chu Nanyue saw that the number of people at the table gradually decreased, and saw that Dongling Jue's face was full of loss, and couldn't help but feel distressed to comfort.

She was about to say a few more words, when she saw Wang Chang come over and take the initiative to introduce to Dongling Jue: "See Her Royal Highness the Eighth Princess, the next official is Wang Chang, the secretary of the Ministry of War." ”

"Hello Lord Wang." Tangling Jue nervously raised his wine glass.

Wang Chang shook his head and said, "I know that the eighth princess is not in good health now, so I should drink less bars." If you don't feel like it's right for you, how about I drink two cups? ”

As he spoke, Wang Chang drank all the wine in his cup first. Then he filled it up again and drank again.

Chu Nanyue saw that Dongling Jue, who had not been drinking, seemed to have a flush on his face.

Because they were old acquaintances, Chu Nanyue only thought that Wang Chang came over to say a few words, but after watching Wang Chang and Dongling Jue chatting for a long time, he had no intention of leaving.

Chu Nanyue was happy for a while, she never thought that she didn't have much hope today, Zuo just wanted Dongling Jue to come out more to breathe, but she didn't think that Wang Chang and Dongling Jue might have a strange relationship.

"The eighth princess has not come out for a long time, and the lower officials only know that there are four princesses in the country, which is really guilty." Wang Chang said guiltily.

Dongling Jue was extremely grateful to see that he had always treated him politely and did not regard her as an outlier, and now he was even more grateful to see him so considerate of himself.

"Lord Wang, it's nothing, in fact, I haven't come out for a long time, I'm still afraid of seeing the living, and I'm even more afraid that I will disturb everyone because of my crippled body." Dongling Jue had an inferiority complex on his face.

Wang Chang said: "Why did the eighth princess say this? When I saw the princess today, Wang Chang knew what beauty was and what was the beauty of the country, and I would like to forgive me for saying that the princess should not be presumptuous at all. ”

Tangling Jue has lived for fourteen years, and he has never been so praised by a strange man. Her heart beat faster for a while, and her whole heart was warmed by Wang Chang's words.

Only Chu Nanyue and others know that Wang Chang is actually not a compliment, he is telling the truth.

The appearance of Donglin Jue, because it has been in the deep palace for a long time, has never been known to outsiders. And because of the simple living and the sick body, this shows an unnatural pale state.

In fact, she is dignified and beautiful, because she is young and a little sick, she has added some weak willows to help the wind.

"But I haven't been able to stand for too long since I was a child, and in front of everyone, I may be a waste." Tanglin Jue said gloomily.

For some reason, in the face of Wang Chang, who was concerned about him, Tangling Jue had a desire to talk. Or maybe she hasn't been taken seriously for a long time, but today she can taste the taste of respect in Wang Chang, the person she met for the first time.

"How can the princess think there is hope when she only looks at the present?" Wang Chang said, "Before the martial arts examination, I was just a gatekeeper in the township, how lowly is my status? I have never forgotten to practice martial arts for a day. As soon as I got the news that the imperial court was going to promote the imperial examination, I came to the capital day and night. All this because I have hope for the future in my heart. ”

Wang Chang's words are actually just like Chu Nanyue's persuasion of Dongling Jue.

How big the world is, Tanglin Jue's leg disease is not hopeless. And as long as there is hope, there is no fear that there will be no way out.

When Dongling Jue heard this, the corners of his eyes were already moist, and he only asked Wang Chang: "Lord Wang, in fact, I don't have any status in the royal family, and you naturally don't want to tie up with the royal family." Then why do you care so much about me and persuade me so much? ”

Chu Nanyue looked at Dongling Jue's reaction, and suddenly felt that she had underestimated Dongling Jue before.

She always thought she was too young, but she didn't know a lot of things. But when I heard what Dongling Jue said to Wang Chang now, it turned out that Dongling Jue had always understood very well, and it could be described as a small ghost.

Dongling Jue knew her status, and she also knew that Chu Nanyue and Dongling Shuo were for her good, so they held this birthday banquet for her.

She also knew that according to herself, these people who came to the banquet today would not really intend to marry her at all. She just barely sat here and let everyone express their reverence for the royal family.

Dongling Jue was already disappointed, but Wang Chang walked over to her. Unlike those children of the family, Wang Chang relied on his own strength to be the martial champion who came up all the way to the imperial examination, and these Dongling Jue had already heard Chu Nanyue mention it.

But Dongling Jue saw Wang Chang for the first time, and in such clear eyes, there was no pity and sympathy for her, but instead there was a kind of equality. Wang Chang regards her as a true and equal person.
