After King Qi took his concubine, Lin Shuxian's first public appearance was at Concubine Chen's birthday party.
Lu Qing and her barely spoke to each other. Although they greeted each other when they met, they were never close enough.
"Princess Qi." She said hello with a slight smile.
"Concubine Wei." Lin Shuxian gently twitched the corner of her mouth, her smile so faint that it was almost invisible, but Lu Qing didn't feel that she was perfunctory because her condition looked very bad.
Lin Shuxian seemed to have entered the palace with an empty shell. She watched Concubine Chen, who had been extremely passionate about her in the past, bring Zhao Ruoling beside her to talk. She saw Zhao Ruoling glance at Yan Changfeng intentionally or unintentionally, and then her young and immature face revealed Shy expression.
Lu Qing stood here for a while, and Zhao Ruoling came over to say hello warmly when he saw her.
"Concubine Wei is here." After saying that, she saluted Lu Qing.
Her family members had told her not to offend Concubine Wei, and that she should try her best to have a good relationship with Concubine Wei and learn how they cultivated a relationship with the prince.
Luqing didn't know what Zhao Ruoling was thinking, so after accepting her courtesy, she politely replied: "Good morning, Concubine Zhao."
"Shall I take you over to sit down? The concubine's palace is very lively today, there are many people here!"
Lu Qing looked around and did not see Zhu Qingjia, Jiang Mihe and others, but Lin Shuxian came over at this time.
"I'd better sit with Concubine Wei. Concubine Zhao, you can go and accompany Concubine Chen."
Zhao Ruoling was disappointed that she failed to seize the opportunity to talk to Lu Qing, but she responded obediently: "Yes, I'll go right away."
Lin Shuxian nodded her head, then called Lu Qing: "Come this way."
She took Lu Qing to a very quiet room, and the maids served tea and then left.
"You sit down first. When the eldest princess and Princess Heng come over later, I will ask them to talk to you." Lin Shuxian had no intention of chatting with Lu Qing.
Lu Qing thought of the scene of people coming and going outside, and took the initiative: "Will you sit with me?"
Lin Shuxian paused and sat on the chair next to Lu Qing. The tea was placed on the table. She glanced at it and turned away.
Lu Qing asked: "What's wrong?"
"Dahongpao, my least favorite tea, it's hard for her. Today we are all serving this kind of tea. I don't know if there is enough tea in the warehouse." She adjusted her sleeves slowly, with an indifferent expression.
Lu Qing regretted why she was so curious.
She opened her mouth, but for a long time she couldn't find a suitable word to say.
Lin Shuxian smiled instead: "When I get back, I will throw away all the Dahongpao in the house! Yan Changfeng likes it, but he doesn't have to drink it!"
Lu Qing was a little surprised by her temperament. She thought that Lin Shuxian had always been a noble and aloof woman, but she didn't expect that she would also lose her temper and vent her resentment towards her mother-in-law on her husband.
Without any clue, Lin Shuxian asked: "Do you like drinking Dahongpao?"
Lu Qing looked at her as she took a few sips of tea and nodded honestly: "It's not bad."
Now there is no need to waste the tea leaves. Lin Shuxian said: "Then I will give them all to you when I go back. It would be a pity to lose them."
Anyway, Yan Changfeng had no chance of drinking this tea. Lu Qing picked it up and was a little embarrassed: "Isn't this bad?"
"Just give it to you, he made me feel uncomfortable, what else do you want to drink from Dahongpao?" Lin Shuxian quickly decided, leaving no room for Lu Qing to regret, "I will send them all to you when I get back. You can drink it slowly, don't you drink it?" It’s okay to just play around.”
Lu Qing was so lucky to meet such a domineering and generous person.
Lin Shuxian didn't leave until Zhu Qingjia came in.
"What did you say? How is she?"
Although the relationship with Lin Shuxian is not that close, everyone cares about her very much. Putting herself in her shoes, she is pitiful and makes women sympathize.
Lu Qing replied: "As for the tea, she seems okay."
He didn't just keep all his depression in his heart. He could think of venting it on Yan Changfeng, which proved that his mood was not that bad.
Zhu Qingjia sighed: "I only heard that the new couple laughed but not the old ones cried. You didn't see how Concubine Chen looked, she was too affectionate to Zhao Ruoling!"
When Concubine Chen did this, she must be targeting Lin Shuxian and deliberately trying to spite her.
The method is not clever and not very bad, but it is enough to hurt people.
After sighing, almost everyone outside had arrived.
In previous years, Concubine Chen's birthdays were not so grand. This year she invited so many people and even asked Emperor Xihe to call all Yan Fuguang brothers to celebrate her birthday.
Seeing Yan Fuguang looking around through the crowd, Lu Qing stood up on tiptoes with joy. Zhu Qingjia beside her curled her lips in disgust: "Stop tiptoing and go find your highness!"
After saying that, she moved to Zhong Yan and Jiang Mihe, pouted and said, "Fortunately, I have someone to accompany me!"
Lu Qing smiled apologetically: "I'll come and play with you in a few days!" Without waiting for Zhu Qingjia's reply, she left happily.
"Tsk!" Zhu Qingjia pointed at Lu Qing's back, "Look, it's been so long since we last met!"
Jiang Mihe said happily: "I never thought that they were real!"
Zhong Yan also sighed: "It seems that the rumors are really not credible!"
Zhu Qingjia seemed to be disgusted but actually said with envy: "It's so sticky, no one will believe it if I tell you!"
Lu Qing walked around half a circle before arriving near Yan Fuguang. When she saw Yan Qingzhou and Yan Changfeng beside him, she stopped walking.
However, Yan Fuguang turned around and spotted her, with a smile on his face: "Come here."
Lu Qing stepped forward to salute politely: "See you all..."
Yan Fuguang pulled her to his side: "No need to be polite." He didn't even let her salute him. Yan Changfeng and Yan Qingzhou were not outsiders, and they didn't need to be polite.
Lu Qing hid half of her face behind Yan Fuguang in embarrassment. She moved her hand, but he still didn't let go.
"What are you moving about? Why didn't you come over when you saw me just now?"
"Shouldn't I be coming right away?"
"Really? But why do I feel like I've been waiting for so long."
"Your Highness, there are so many people, don't be like this..."
The two people were rustling, one was on tiptoes, the other was leaning over, and their heads were getting closer and closer.
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of their little movements. Yan Qingzhou smacked his lips and said, "I'm going to find my princess."
He and Zhong Yan have a stable relationship, but the two of them mostly have a tacit understanding, and their personalities are both calm and solemn. Yan Fuguang and Lu Qing have never experienced this kind of indifferent and boring sweetness, and he has goosebumps. .
Yan Changfeng couldn't stand it either, especially the way Yan Fuguang spoke softly made his teeth ache. He said, "I'm going to find my princess too."
Yan Fuguang doesn't care where they go, no matter where they go. He held Lu Qing's hand and teased her: "Why can't we hold hands?"
Lu Qing quickly leaned on Yan Fuguang's shoulder, then immediately stood up straight and whispered: "In broad daylight, calm down."
She was so cute that Yan Fuguang wanted to kiss her, but the occasion was not suitable.
"On a dark and windy night, I can do whatever I want?"
A very low voice sounded in Lu Qing's ears. She blushed and glared at him, reminding him: "Pay attention to your identity!"
Your Majesty, the Crown Prince, don’t act like a thief!
