Chapter 245: Dressed in Mourning
Chapter 245: Dressed in Mourning
Su Yunrou was also looking at Su Lihan inconspicuously. She looked at her with disdain as if she wanted to wear all the good things on her body.
You think you can seduce the King of Qi in this way? How foolish!
He couldn't beat me in the fight for the King of Rui back then, and now no man can beat her.
"Second sister, you are dressed so plainly. People who don't know would think someone has died in your family. Don't you think it's unlucky?" Su Lihan said bluntly.
Su Yunrou's expression changed slightly, and she couldn't help but clench the handkerchief in her hand.
She just thought that Su Lihan knew something, but when she thought about what she was going to do, she realized that she had not told anyone and it was impossible for her to know.
Only then did he calm down and smiled politely, "Fifth sister, be careful with your words today, so as not to annoy His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi. Besides, His Royal Highness likes quiet women."
Su Yunrou didn't care whether Su Lihan believed what she said or not and continued walking towards the flower hall.
I think my mother has probably already been there, so I just need to find a time to do that thing.
As she walked, she was thinking, and unknowingly her pace slowed down, and was overtaken by Su Lihan who was following behind her.
When Su Lihan walked in front of Su Yunrou, she instantly felt extremely proud.
She must let the King of Qi see her first and be shocked by her beauty.
After the two of them walked away, Su Qingwan walked out from the moon door on the side and walked slowly towards the flower hall.
She didn't want to go today, but Su Zhiru reminded her this morning to go to the flower hall to meet the guests.
This behavior instantly made Su Qingwan understand why her father had agreed to her engagement with Prince Rui. It seemed that he wanted her to marry into the royal family!
It's just that although he had a good idea, he never asked Su Qingwan whether she was willing, or in his eyes, his daughter's thoughts were not important.
It seems that I need to find some time to have a good talk with my father. His thoughts are very dangerous.
In the flower hall, everyone in the Marquis' Mansion chatted with the King of Qi.
It’s just that King Qi was a little absent-minded. After Su Zhiyi came to see him yesterday, Mr. Bai Feng said that the time had come.
He knew what the so-called timing meant. He had been preparing for so long, and success or failure depended on this one move.
Everyone was paying attention to the King of Qi's expression. Seeing his expression, they thought he was just waiting for someone.
Xiaokang looked outside the flower hall several times and finally saw Su Lihan. She felt relieved when she saw that she was wearing the outfit she had asked for.
She secretly glanced at King Qi and saw that he was looking in the direction where Su Lihan was walking towards. She thought that King Qi was stunned.
She knew that her daughter was like a fairy, so there was no reason for the King of Qi not to like her.
When Su Lihan walked over, she also noticed that the King of Qi was looking at her. She was extremely happy at that moment. It seemed that her outfit was indeed in line with His Royal Highness the King of Qi's preferences.
"My daughter Li Han greets His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi."
After Su Lihan entered the room, she first bowed to King Qi.
The King of Qi was so absorbed in that matter that he didn't even notice Su Lihan coming in. However, when he heard her talking, he reacted and raised his hand casually.
"Get up."
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Su Lihan bowed to the elders in the hall again.
She looked at Prince Qi again. Although Prince Qi was not as good-looking as Prince Rui, he was raised by the Queen and had the best relationship with the Crown Prince.
There have always been rumors that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may not live long, and once the Crown Prince is gone, the Queen will definitely support the King of Qi to ascend the throne. But even if the rumors are untrue and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne, the King of Qi will not be treated any worse.
So she had to marry the King of Qi no matter what, and she had to live a better life than Su Yunrou.
Just as I was thinking about it, a graceful figure came in from outside the door. She was wearing an elegant and plain Xiangyunsha butterfly skirt, which made her figure look graceful and like an immortal.
Before entering the room, the fragrant breeze has already been brought into the hall.
The King of Qi stood up instantly with a gentle smile on his face. If he had not remembered his identity, he would have walked over and held Su Yunrou's hand.
Yun Rou is so beautiful today, just like Chang'e in the Moon Palace, unforgettable and irresistible.
"Yun Rou greets His Highness." Su Yun Rou felt extremely proud when she saw the King of Qi's infatuated eyes towards her.
While paying his respects, he glanced at Su Lihan casually and found that she was frowning in anger, which made him even more proud.
So what if I walk fast?
The King of Qi didn't have her in his heart, so even if she flew away, he wouldn't be able to see her.
"Get up quickly." King Qi gave her a helping hand.
When Liu and Su Zhiyi saw this scene, they were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling. They both hoped that Su Yunrou would be with King Qi.
But this made Xiaokang and Su Lihan extremely dissatisfied.
Xiaokang frowned slightly, and when she saw Su Yunrou's outfit, she couldn't help but say something sarcastic.
"Second girl, you are dressed too plainly. If others see you, they will think there is a funeral in our mansion."
Su Qingwan had just walked under the eaves of the corridor. As soon as she heard Xiaokang's words, she almost laughed out loud.
Xiaokang and Su Lihan are indeed mother and daughter, even the words they use to mock Su Yunrou are similar.
Old Kang glanced at Young Kang with dissatisfaction. This idiot, does he want to curse himself to death? Or does he want the old marquis to die?
The old marquis was just looking at Prince Qi and Su Yunrou happily. In his opinion, Yunrou and Prince Qi were much more valuable than Prince Rui.
After hearing Xiaokang's blunt words, he looked over with displeasure.
Although he didn't scold her directly, the look of disgust in her eyes made Xiaokang's heart skip a beat.
She shut her mouth awkwardly, but became even more dissatisfied.
The old marquis was too partial. She was not wrong. It was Su Yunrou who dressed like that. If she wore two white flowers, wouldn't she be dressed in mourning?
Su Qingwan walked into the flower hall, saw only Queen Qi, and then walked over to Jiang and sat down.
Su Zhiru frowned at this action, but he couldn't criticize Su Qingwan in front of so many people, so he could only let her talk to Jiang in a low voice.
"Grandfather, I think it's almost time. Why don't we go to the banquet?" Su Yunrou suggested to the old marquis with a gentle smile.
Seeing that the time was almost up, the old marquis smiled and said to the King of Qi, "Your Highness, please follow me to Linhai Pavilion."
The King of Qi naturally had no objection and went to the banquet venue with everyone.
During the banquet, everyone exchanged greetings constantly, and the King of Qi responded to all of them, but in his heart he was wondering when the news would come from the palace.
Su Yunrou was also thinking about her own things. Seeing that the time was almost up, she left under the pretext of changing clothes.
After King Qi noticed that Su Yunrou had left, he found an excuse to sober up and left as well.
The old marquis and Su Zhiyi both knew that the King of Qi was most likely going to look for the second girl, so this was a good thing.
When Su Lihan saw that King Qi had left, she could no longer sit still and wanted to follow him, but was stopped by the old marquis.
"Fifth girl, sit still and don't run around."
It is obvious that the King of Qi’s mind is on Su Yunrou now, so Su Lihan should not follow him and cause trouble.
Su Qingwan was eating in silence, thinking back to when Su Yunrou left just now, she looked very worried. If she guessed correctly, Su Yunrou was about to take action.
No! She had to watch such a good thing from the side! She could also encourage her second sister. After all, not everyone could use the death of their own brother to postpone their marriage.
