Chapter 390: A Victim of Existence for Profit
As the first rays of sunlight rise over the horizon and fall onto the earth, a new day dawns.
And this day, for the people in the palace, is destined to be a busy and extraordinary day.
The princess of the Western Regions personally brought an envoy to the Southern Flame Kingdom, and even presented the purple smoke glass beads, the treasure of the town country, to the monarch of the Southern Flame Kingdom, in order to resolve the past conflict and show the friendship between the two countries, which is really awe-inspiring.
As the host, the Southern Flame Kingdom naturally couldn't afford to slack off, and immediately set up a dinner party to entertain the envoys from the Western Regions. So from early in the morning, people up and down the palace began to prepare, and they were very busy.
In addition to the busy people in the palace, those who want to show up in front of the princess of the Western Regions tonight and shine are even more prepared! This is an opportunity to leave a good impression in the heart of the princess of the Western Regions, maybe if you don't pay attention, you will have no worries about food and clothing!
The princess of the Western Regions is an envoy, and a discerning person knows at a glance that this is clearly an indirect selection of Malay political marriages, such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, for those who want to broaden their foothold in the political court, it is absolutely not to be missed!
Officialdom is like this, carefully planned, calculated step by step, very few people dare to say that they did not step on other people's corpses to ascend to a high position step by step! Often looking back, there is a river of blood flowing now, and the vast majority of people have become victims of politics. And this princess of the Western Regions has to admit that from the moment she embarked on the journey to the Southern Flame Country, she has also become a victim. A victim destined to exist for the sake of profit, for the sake of profit!
And these are known to those who know, and everyone is just taking what they need.
The palace banquet is in full swing, some people are happy and some are worried. Far away in the Dust King's Mansion outside the palace, Ling Xiyun didn't think about it, and slept until noon before getting up lazily. Anyway, the palace banquet was at night, and she didn't have anything to prepare in advance, so she slept lazily without heart or lungs.
Rubbing her sleepy eyes, Ling Xiyun stretched, then got up and washed up.
"Miss, the prince just sent a message to let you go to Shangqing Pavilion after washing."
As soon as Ling Xiyun finished everything and sat down to rest for a while, she heard Zhi'er suddenly say.
Hearing this, Ling Xiyun was suddenly a little surprised, and couldn't help but ask, "He is still in the mansion and hasn't gone to the palace?" ”
She also thought that he was going to go to the palace early this morning, after all, such a pivotal person as His Royal Highness the Dust King, how could he be without him in the things that needed to be checked.
"Zhi'er heard from the other sisters that the prince went to the palace after lunch."
Went after lunch? Shang Qing Pavilion?
"So...... Did he tell me to come over for lunch? Ling Xiyun raised her eyebrows and twitched the corners of her mouth as she spoke.
“…… Yes. Zhi'er nodded curtly.
"Don't go!"
As soon as Zhi'er's words fell, Ling Xiyun immediately refused, "You go and tell him that Miss Ben can eat in her room, and don't bother him!" ”
Twenty-four hours a day, she can see him at all times except for sleeping, and she is not afraid that she will be visually tired when she hangs in front of her all the time?!
And she hadn't seen them eat together before, so she suddenly asked him to go to Shang Qingge to eat with him for some reason, she really couldn't get used to it!
Say nothing and don't go!
Don't go to the death!
Don't go, don't go!
"But ......" Seeing Ling Xiyun's decisive refusal, Zhi'er's pretty face was entangled, and she suddenly didn't know what to do! She bit her lip and hesitated for a long time before she spoke.
"The prince said that if you don't go over, Miss, he, he will come over in person......"
"Nani?!"
Slammed the table, Ling Xiyun's eyes were as big as copper bells, and she couldn't help but roar, "You said he came over?!" ”
What the hell is going on now? You won't even let her eat well, will you?
