Chapter 364 Prince's Birthday
Chapter 364 Prince's Birthday
Thinking of this, she couldn't help feeling regretful.
If it is within one's ability, it is possible to prevent the tragedy of the previous life from happening and save a person with the same miserable fate as her.
Su Lanyin thought about it, then asked, "My Lord, can I go to the Crown Prince's birthday banquet?"
If you go, maybe there will be a turning point.
At least she tried.
Even if the final result is the same... you can't blame her for not helping.
Just to clear her conscience, she has to give it a try.
Fu Wuyang nodded: "Of course you have to go. After all, you are now the county lord, and you have made many contributions. Now your reputation is also widely known among the noble ladies of Shengjing."
"Me?" Su Lanyin was surprised.
"Yes, but don't be too happy too soon. It's not a good thing to be talked about by a group of women."
Of course she knew it, and she couldn't help feeling uneasy.
Seeing that she looked a little heavy, Fu Wuyang chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I will give them a heads up in advance. Just like what I said in the county government office today, they won't dare to embarrass you."
"What did you say?"
"Hey, you ungrateful bastard, how come you forgot so quickly?"
Su Lanyin was stunned for a moment before she suddenly realized: "Oh, you said I was your savior!"
"Well, you have some memory. There are not many fools in Shengjing who dare to disrespect my lifesaver. Don't worry."
"That's good, thank you, Your Majesty."
After saying that, she quickly poured him another glass of wine.
"Come, come, Your Majesty, have a drink. This is the most expensive and best wine in our store."
"Come on this!"
"Oh, Your Majesty, this is the best dish..."
"This is not as good as the dishes you brought to the government office today... Hmm..."
Before he could finish his words, Su Lanyin picked up a chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Alas, how can the prince be compared to Su Lanxin? She doesn't eat as well as you."
"Really?"
"Uh huh huh huh..."
"That's pretty much it."
Su Lanyin was busy serving him meals, and her heart was filled with joy.
In this life, I can be said to have relied on the thigh of King Xiaoyao. From now on in Shengjing, let’s see who dares to bully me, hahaha!
……
In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the prince's birthday banquet.
Early in the morning, Su Lanyin got dressed and dressed up just because Fu Wuyang said he would come to pick her up.
Although attending with King Xiaoyao would attract a lot of attention and appear too high-profile, if I were to attend alone, I'm afraid it would be the same as in my previous life.
Looking at the blurry shadow in the bronze mirror, scenes from her previous life gradually emerged before Su Lanyin's eyes.
At that time, she was not a county princess, nor was she the savior of King Xiaoyao. She had never seen the emperor, nor had she entered the palace.
However, Su Lanxin has become a famous talent in Shengjing with her novel dances and exquisite poems, and has even won the favor of the prince.
Not only that, she also managed to move freely among the several princes and became their favorite.
The noble ladies from various families were jealous but could do nothing about her, so they transferred their hatred onto her, an unknown concubine's daughter.
At that time, she had just been engaged to Song Rui and originally did not want to attend the prince's birthday banquet.
But Su Lanxin cried to Song Rui, saying that she would be scared if no one went with her.
So, Song Rui forced her to go with Su Lanxin.
I think at that time Su Lanxin knew that someone hated her and couldn't wait to take revenge on her.
That's why she let herself be the unlucky one and bear all the resentment for her.
She remembered everything that happened that day clearly and still can't forget it.
First, she was splashed with water by the girl from the Li family, and then the girl from the Wang family pretended to be kind and said she would take her to a side room to change clothes but pushed her into a room full of men.
There was a large wet area on her chest, and when she was pushed in, she fell to the ground. She had no time to stand up, so she could only cover her chest and then run out in embarrassment.
She confronted Miss Wang, but she said that she wanted to attract the attention of the young masters of the noble families, so she wet her clothes and pretended to fall in accidentally.
Now, her reputation of trying to marry a rich man behind her fiancé's back spread in the circle.
Everyone called her shameless and fickle, and no one believed her explanation.
She wanted to leave immediately, but got lost in the huge Prince's Mansion and was stopped by a group of lazy and dissolute young men.
If it weren't for the guards patrolling by, she would have been dragged behind the rockery by that group of people that day...
Thinking of this, she regained her consciousness and gasped for breath.
How she wished that these unpleasant experiences were just a nightmare, but unfortunately they were not. They really existed and had happened, and had hurt her deeply.
She will avenge all the humiliation and pain in this life!
"Cuizhu, take out that white jade headpiece and wear it. Try to dress more simply today. This is to express your condolences to the prince in advance."
In the previous life, without the prince's tacit consent, those people would have been so bold as to cause trouble in the prince's mansion.
So, there is no innocent person, they all deserve to die!
"Yes!"
Cuizhu immediately went to find a crescent-white robe with floating luster. It was simple and elegant, yet concealed a sense of gorgeousness and luxury, which was perfect for her.
……
Fu Wuyang stood at the bottom of the steps waiting patiently. The morning light shone through the clouds onto him, casting a faint glow on his angular face.
From afar, he stood in the light and shadow, radiating softness and elegance, lacking much of his previous sharp edge.
At this moment, he was not the vigorous and decisive King Xiaoyao, but just an ordinary man waiting for a woman.
The sound of footsteps was heard, and although they were light, they could not escape his ears.
Turning around and looking up, he met a pair of eyes as lively as water. He was slightly stunned and couldn't help looking her up and down.
Today, Su Lanyin was wearing a white crescent-shaped dress, and she looked like a fairy, cold, noble, and otherworldly.
She has fair skin and palm-sized cheeks. Her delicate eyebrows and eyes are lightly made up, and her cherry blossom-like lips are dyed flesh pink, which complements the sparkling white jade hairpin on her head.
From a distance, she was so beautiful that she didn't look like a real person. Instead, she looked like a fairy that only appeared in paintings.
Fu Wuyang stood there and stared at her as she walked towards him, before he finally reacted and quickly closed his mouth.
"Uh... for the prince's birthday party, you're wearing white. It's a bit too obvious."
He teased in a nonchalant manner, touched his nose with his fingers to hide his embarrassment, and his Adam's apple rolled to secretly suppress the nervousness in his heart.
Su Lanyin was much more relaxed than him. She smiled gently and opened her arms to show him her dress. She was almost turning around.
"How is it? This is a priceless piece of floating brocade. I attach so much importance to the Crown Prince's birthday, I'm sure he will be very happy."
Fu Wuyang smiled and stretched out his hand: "What if I am not with you? Would you dare to wear this?"
Su Lanyin held his hand and climbed into the carriage, then turned around and winked at him.
"My trick is called the fox borrowing the tiger's might."
