Chapter 677: Dead Wood Spring
When the sky was getting darker, a small carriage with a red roof slowly stopped at the gate of King Cong's mansion.
The people who swept the door recognized that this was the carriage of the Lu family, and they all knew that Lu Xuerou would come to meet the five princes today, and they all shouted happily: "Hey! Is the second miss of the Lu family here! Welcome, welcome! ”
Lu Xuerou had just been helped out of the carriage by her subordinates, and when she saw the noisy posture of the subordinates of the Cong Palace, she couldn't help biting the root and scolded hatefully: "What kind of character is this fifth prince, doesn't it mean that I just got acquainted with him?" Why do you make it look like an old lady is married? ”
At this time, Lu Yao slowly walked over from not far away, she was leisurely nibbling on an apple, and when she saw Lu Xuerou with a gloomy face, she was not surprised at all, as if she had expected that someone of her temperament would inevitably come to the banquet, so she raised her chin perfunctorily and took a bite of the apple: "Coming?" ”
"Here we are." Lu Xuerou walked in the door, glanced at her angrily, and squinted her eyes, "Why did you eat first?" Didn't you say waiting for me to come? ”
Lu Yao said as a matter of course: "The five princes of the family invited you, not us." She looked at each other and smiled at Hongluan beside her, "Of course it's time for us to eat and drink!" ”
She looked Lu Xuerou up and down, and then nodded with satisfaction: "You are still dressed well today, it seems that you still have some small coffers on weekdays, otherwise you would not have the money to buy this outfit!" ”
"That's natural, Miss Ben just wants to wear the best." Lu Xuerou raised her chin smugly slightly, walked to the mansion with the person, and said, "I still need to find you, I should have dressed up better, this is my consistent style." ”
Lu Yao sighed: "What style?" Voluptuous? ”
"Bah, you're arrogant!" Lu Xuerou said as if she was furious, "Let me tell you, I am actually not interested in the fifth prince at all, it was all you talking nonsense, so that my mother knew about it, and then my father and your mother also knew about it, I was all forced to come, not out of my heart." ”
Lu Yao waved his hand casually, whether that person came or not, in fact, it had nothing to do with her, she was just helping the fifth prince to bring a word.
Who knew that now Lu Xuerou is really dressed up like a hibiscus out of the water.
There are gentle little white flowers on his face, and as soon as he speaks, all of them are broken, Lu Yao thought about it and sneered.
"What the hell are you laughing at?" Lu Xuerou hugged her arms and said very dissatisfied, "Let me tell you, I only came here because the face of the five princes is not good, and the dinner is in King Cong's mansion, and I am also giving His Royal Highness King Cong a face, but I didn't come because you personally invited him!" ”
Lu Yao glanced at the person, his expression became tangled, and said, "Huh? I don't know, I think you're the king of heaven, you have such a big face. ”
Lu Xuerou cleared her throat and coughed a few times: "Is the room in front of you the room of the fifth prince?" ”
"Yes, you can get in quickly." Lu Yao waved his hand, motioning for her to speed up.
However, Lu Xuerou's heart subconsciously swelled up with a bad premonition, she pursed her lips, her palms were slightly sweaty, and asked Lu Yao: "Do you see me wearing this dress?" ”
It is rare to see this guy take the initiative to ask if she can do it, she glanced at Lu Xuerou who was full of tension in surprise, and saw that the person had exquisite makeup, and the Luo skirt was fairy, and it was really bloody, it was estimated that one person came on a blind date, and the whole family went out to help.
"Since it was the fifth prince who took the initiative to get to know you, I think he likes you with a sack on your body." Lu Yao pouted.
Lu Xuerou was even more suspicious, she turned around and pushed the door in, and muttered: "Is it so exaggerated?" I'm just here to socialize, I'll leave after eating, I won't stay here to grind and chirp......"
With a creak, she stepped in.
Lu Xuerou closed the door, and when she swept her eyes, she saw that there were a lot of delicacies from the mountains and seas on the table, and the presentation was exquisite, which made her a little interested.
And the man turned his back to her very deeply, his posture was straight, and he was a handsome and merry figure looking at the back, Lu Xuerou's heart faintly rose with a sense of familiarity, but where this feeling came from, she didn't know.
Maybe I saw the Five Princes there before......
She bowed slowly, counted the salutes properly, and said in a very gentle voice: "Lu Xuerou, the folk girl, has seen His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince." ”
As soon as Lu Xuerou said this, the figure of the man standing opposite him stiffened, but soon took advantage of his voice and said, "No courtesy, you sit." ”
"Uh...... Don't the five princes sit down to eat? Lu Xuerou was slightly embarrassed.
The fifth prince said very strangely: "You first." ”
Lu Xuerou didn't have any expectations for the five princes, so she sat down on the chair unceremoniously and said, "Since the five princes let me go first, then I happen to be hungry, so I'm welcome." ”
Anyway, she didn't want to leave a good impression on His Highness, so she picked up the chopsticks with a big grin, grabbed a chopstick dish, and feasted on it: "But I'm starving, God knows how long I've dressed up to see you." ”
"For me?" The fifth prince tilted his head slightly, with a slight inconspicuous smile in his voice.
There was a little imperceptible joy in his back, but this person was covered in light and shadow, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly, so Lu Xuerou nodded inarticulate and said, "Yes, it's for you, after all, you are a prince." ”
"Just because I'm a prince?" Gu Huaiyuan was a little anxious because she didn't recognize herself immediately.
Lu Xuerou also felt that she was too eager to achieve quick success, so she smiled, continued to eat, and said: "Don't be afraid of His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince getting angry when you say it, after all, you are the prince, even if I don't want to come, I have to come, even if I don't want to dress up, I have to dress up well, in that case, even if I make His Royal Highness the Prince angry and get out of the house, I can roll out beautifully." ”
Gu Huaiyuan couldn't help laughing: "You are an honest man. ”
"I'm not honest, my sister hates me." Lu Xuerou lowered her eyelids and ate vigorously, as if she was afraid of marrying herself off.
Gu Huaiyuan's heart moved slightly, the smile on the corner of his mouth never fell, I am afraid that even he didn't notice this: "Why do you hate you?" You're clearly cute. ”
"People change, I wasn't cute at all before, I like to die the most, I can't wait to snatch everything from my sister, including the man she likes." Lu Xuerou let go in front of the five princes and said, the purpose is to make that person not like him.
When Gu Huaiyuan heard this, this matter happened to match Gu Congyuan's worries, and he said softly: "Then have you changed?" ”
"Of course it has changed, I also think it's strange, that day it was just a one-sided man, which made me feel that the best man in the world doesn't seem to be His Royal Highness King Cong." Lu Xuerou ate salty food, and poured herself a glass of wine.
Gu Huaiyuan's heart was beating violently, and he seemed to have met a rival in love: "Who is that man?" ”
Lu Xuerou raised her eyebrows and glanced at the back of the person opposite, regardless of whether he was standing there to pretend to be deep or not, she only said: "He, I don't know him either, it's just a man I happened to meet in King Cong's mansion, maybe it's a friend of His Royal Highness King Cong, but ...... I haven't heard of any friends with His Royal Highness King Cong. ”
Gu Huaiyuan's breathing was confused, and his premonition became stronger and stronger, and he said, "That friend, what is it like?" ”
"It's very good-looking, but people are a little cheap, and they are clearly dressed in silk and satin, but they prefer to hunt birds to eat, and they like to bully me." Lu Xuerou thought for a while and sighed, "It's not that I like him bullying me, it's just ......"
"Just you like him?" Gu Huaiyuan couldn't help but chuckle.
Lu Xuerou was confused for a moment. Aren't these five princes pursuing their own? Why does he smile so much when he hears that he likes someone else?
She said ignorantly: "No, no, no...... It's not that far, but it's just that I've finally found a close match, and it's fun. ”
Gu Huaiyuan smiled more and more happily, and his shoulders trembled involuntarily.
Lu Xuerou saw that the more he was abused, the happier she became, her eyes widened in disbelief, and she said in surprise: "Fifth prince, you...... Actually, you asked me to meet just to pursue me, right? But why are you so happy to hear that I like other people? Don't you ......?"
Could it be that these five princes have some ulterior mystical habits?!
Lu Xuerou was extremely frightened for a while, she immediately stretched out her hand and said, "That!" I want to say in advance that I am not short of money, so if I choose a husband, I will naturally not go to those things outside my body! ”
"I know." Gu Huaiyuan still had his back to her, but he didn't expect everything in the world to be so coincidental, he couldn't help but smile and stretched out a hand to cover his mouth.
Lu Xuerou really admired the five princes, and rolled her eyes angrily: "You know you're still ......"
"Fifth prince, with your conditions, you should be able to find a lot of women of the right age to marry, right? I think they're all well-read and well-informed, and they're much better off than me, right? I've got a lot of stinky problems! In order to refuse him, Lu Xuerou really did everything, "I can spend a lot of money to buy things at a time, my husband is not allowed to have a concubine, otherwise I will clean up the concubine with him, I must be coaxed by him, it is difficult to coax anyway!" ”
She saw that the figure of the man was still trembling slightly, as if she was still laughing, and couldn't help but be anxious: "What are you laughing at!" ”
"This prince is naturally smiling......" He slowly turned around, revealing a handsome and graceful face, and looked at Lu Xuerou with a smile in his eyes, "You really tried your best to reject others for me, you like this prince so much?" ”
