Chapter 159: Befriending the Prince
Qin Huawu pursed her lips, she had nothing to say, the punchline was indeed the trouble caused by their Medicine King Valley.
"Okay then."
Qin Huawu had given up on wooing the prince, but she didn't expect the prince to come to the door in person.
On this day, Qin Huawu got up early, checked the breakfast in King Sheng's mansion, stretched his waist and prepared to go back to the house to sleep, but he didn't expect the housekeeper to say that the prince's palace personally handed him a post.
Qin Huawu plucked her ears, "The prince handed me a post?" β
The butler nodded.
"Show me."
It is indeed a post from the prince's mansion, and now it is the season when the chrysanthemums are in full bloom, and the prince holds a banquet in the East Palace and invites prestigious dignitaries and nobles in Beijing to enjoy the flowers together.
Qin Huawu pinched the corner of the post and smiled, he didn't expect that he, a country man, would one day become a prestigious dignitary.
He put the post away, "Is your prince going too?" β
Although the prince and Nangong Ling are secretly competing, they still look like brothers, friends and brothers on the surface, this post was handed to Qin Huawu's hands, and Nangong Ling must also have a share in his hands.
Receiving the butler's affirmative reply, Qin Huawu nodded reassuringly.
On the day of the flower-viewing feast, the officials who received the posts in Beijing gathered at the East Palace with their families.
The prince is still as warm as jade, wearing a moon-white regular clothes, very approachable, with a smile in his eyes, "Today is an ordinary family banquet, you don't have to be too restrained." β
The lady who was still waiting for the boudoir couldn't help blushing when she saw the prince like this.
The prince, who is in a high position and is so gentle, is simply a peerless good husband written in the book.
The identity of the punch line is Nangong Ling's fiancΓ©e, and she is also a famous goddess doctor in the Dayan Dynasty, so of course today's banquet also came with Nangong Ling.
The eyes of the broken-mouthed people naturally placed on Nangong Ling and Punch Talk, and the awkward way of getting along between the two of them was really hard not to notice.
Obviously they are already engaged, but Nangong Ling doesn't seem to care much about the wonderful words, and she doesn't even give him extra glances, but the wonderful words have been carefully laughing by Nangong Ling's side.
The whispers around him made a dark light flash in the punch words' eyes.
If it weren't for the people sent by her brother telling her that she must quickly gain Nangong Ling's trust, and then ......
She won't lick her face and be false in front of Nangong Ling.
"Brother Ling, you have become so strange recently, is it because of the death of the princess's sister?"
Nangong Ling's eyes lit up, and a pair of cold eyes fell on Witty Yu's body like two knives.
Punchline craned her neck like a frightened rabbit, her eyes wrapped in small tears, and looked at him timidly.
"Did Yu'er say the wrong thing, the princess's sister is very good, but now Yu'er is your fiancΓ©e, you care about her like this, it makes Yu'er feel very heartbroken, isn't our past important?"
She clutched her chest, because she didn't dare to cry loudly in public, and suppressed the tears that carefully wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
This pitiful appearance, if Nangong Ling saw it before, she would definitely be very distressed, but now Nangong Ling is only indifferent to her, and she doesn't even want to see her.
He turned his head and his gaze fell on the flowers in the distance, "You're thinking too much." β
Punch Line seemed to be coaxed by his words, "I knew that Brother Ling would not disappoint Yu'er." β
She smiled and continued to gaze at the flowers in the distance.
There are no good ladies in Beijing, so Witty Words has always followed Nangong Ling's side.
Qin Huawu, who deliberately distanced herself from Nangong Ling, had already spoken to Nangong Chen.
"Can't you see that the young valley master is also a person who cherishes flowers?"
Qin Huawu nodded, but she sneered in her heart, these words are as many as there are in the Medicine King Valley, and it seems that there are not necessarily them in the palace.
If it weren't for what Nangong Ling said, he wouldn't be lying.
These precious varieties of chrysanthemums were all collected by Nangong Chen, and now they are even more proud of these words.
He said very generously: "The medicines sent by the young valley lord last time are all good things, and these flowers are favored by the young valley master, so you don't need to be polite to the palace." β
Qin Huawu didn't like these flowers at all, no matter how expensive they were, so she said, "How can a gentleman win people's love?" Qin could see that His Royal Highness liked these flowers very much, so he was not annoying. β
Nangong Chen laughed, and pretended to be familiar and said: "Since this is the case, I won't be reluctant, this palace remembers that the young valley master likes wine very much, right?" It just so happens that there are still a lot of treasured wines in the main palace, I don't know if the young valley master is interested? β
As soon as it comes to this, Qin Huawu is really a little interested.
His eyes lit up, "And such a good thing, then...... Just trouble His Royal Highness the Prince. β
Everyone else was still chanting poems around those flowers, but Nangong Chen had already led Qin Huawu to find precious wine.
Qin Huawu sat on the veranda in the backyard, looking at the layout of the East Palace, and couldn't help but sigh, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really the same as rumored." β
Nangong Chen squinted, seeming to be very interested in this.
"The young valley lord has also heard rumors about this palace?"
Qin Huawu directly lifted the wine jug, raised her head and took a big sip, smacked her lips, and said, "Isn't it?" Outside, it is said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is as gentle as jade, a handsome son. β
Looking at Nangong Chen's pleasure that could not be concealed, Qin Huawu sneered in her heart, but she looked very envious on her face, and said sourly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't know that those little girls always have a red face when they talk about His Royal Highness the Prince, and they can't wait to put on a wedding dress for you right away, which is very enviable." β
The corners of Nangong Chen's mouth and eyebrows were smiling, and he shook his head, "What Hua Wu said is a bit exaggerated, this palace is just doing its own thing." β
Qin Huawu raised her eyebrows, but she didn't correct the nickname that quietly narrowed the distance in Nangong Chen's words.
The two talked for a while, and Nangong Chen finally led the topic to another place.
"The relationship between Hua Wu and the Nine Emperor Brothers should be quite good, right?"
Qin Huawu drank for a moment, and a slight depth appeared in his eyes.
The smile on Nangong Chen's face had a little more meaning.
"What? Is there something unspeakable? It doesn't matter, this palace treats you as a friend, you can tell me anything, if my Nine Emperor Brother makes you unhappy, you can also take care of it, I am his imperial brother, and I have a reason to help you teach him a lesson. β
A hint of cunning flashed in Qin Huawu's eyes, but it was quickly concealed.
"Actually, it's nothing, it's that my relationship with the Ninth Princess is actually quite good, but King Sheng is ...... Hey......"
A long sigh encapsulated all the unfinished words.
Nangong Chen's heart was shocked, and when he thought of Feng Jiutian's unforgettable face, he suddenly understood a little.
"So that's the case, in fact, this palace also thinks it's a pity."
