Chapter 406 The 4th Prince is not a good person
Lu Shian smiled. What could she say? He was the prince, so of course whatever he said was what it came down to.
"Now that you and I are allies, shouldn't you learn to get along with me?"
"I will study hard."
Li Hongting: …
"Then from now on, do I not need to give the things I send to you as rewards to my servants?"
Lu Shian: ...
It turns out he knew everything.
Since the marriage was granted, Li Hongting sent gifts to the Marquis' Mansion every day. Lu Shian was not satisfied with the marriage and did not like these things.
The food that was delivered was given as a reward to the servants, while the cloth or other valuable items were sent to the warehouse and locked up.
It turns out he knew all this.
Lu Shian was stunned: "Since the prince knew, why did he send it?"
"Since you don't want it, it must be that the gift is not good enough and you don't like it enough. If I give you something you like, you will definitely be happy."
Lu Shian: ...
"I have failed the prince's kindness."
Li Hongting joked, "It's not a disappointment. At least you didn't throw it away."
Two days later, Li Hongyu also returned to Anjing.
Five days later it would be the second day of the second month. According to her status as the second daughter of Marquis Lu Shi'an, it was impossible for her to participate in such a grand ceremony. However, she had another status, that is, she was the prince's concubine who was personally married by the emperor. Because of this relationship, she participated in this grand ceremony with the concubines in the harem.
At the end of the day, her legs were sore from standing, and her ears were filled with the endless stream of long, eloquent nonsense from the ceremonial officer, which she could not bear to hear or could not quite understand.
It was finally time for dinner, and Lu Shian could finally find a place to rest.
She ate something in a hurry and ran to an empty corner. When she first came through, she felt that her physical condition was quite good, but as her life got better and better, her body became weaker.
It was still a little cold under the pavilion in the Imperial Garden, so Lu Shian took out a pot of wine from his sleeve. This wine was from the Imperial Banquet.
You know what, this wine is delicious.
She took a sip, and as the spicy liquor went down her throat, she didn't seem so cold anymore.
When Li Hongyu saw Lu Shian go out, he found an excuse and ran out as well.
He turned left and right and finally found Lu Shian.
"Why is Miss Shi'an drinking alone here?"
The sudden voice frightened Lu Shian. He turned around to see who was coming. Lu Shian immediately stood up and distanced himself from him.
"The daughter of the people has met the fourth prince."
"You are the second sister-in-law, and I am the younger brother. How can the second sister-in-law bow to the younger brother? I should be the one bowing to you."
Seeing that the Fourth Prince didn't smile like a good person, Lu Shian frowned: "Fourth Prince, is there anything wrong? If not, I will go back first."
"Hey, don't go. What are you afraid of? Everyone is at the banquet now, no one will come here." Li Hongyu blocked Lu Shian's way.
"It's broad daylight, the Fourth Prince should be more careful about his words and actions."
"Second sister-in-law is so fierce."
Li Hongyu's eyes were teasing, and Lu Shian took a few steps back and almost fell down the stairs before he stopped.
"Fourth Prince, be careful with your words."
"Second sister-in-law, what you said makes me so sad. You and Shen Teng are not like that. Why do you want me to be careful with my words when it comes to me..."
"If you're drunk, find a place to sleep. Don't talk nonsense. Mr. Shen and I are just friends. We have a cooperative relationship. If you dare to talk nonsense, I won't forgive you."
Li Hongyu suddenly approached, with an ambiguous tone: "How are you going to make sure I'm not forgiven? Hmm? Are you going to tie me up and whip me, or do you like other tricks? As long as you ask, I will do my best to cooperate."
Lu Shian was frightened by him and raised her hand to hit him, but Li Hongyu moved quickly and dodged by turning his head.
"Beating is love, scolding is care, my second sister-in-law really treats me differently."
"Li Hongyu..."
"Yes, my second sister-in-law called my name so nicely."
Lu Shian's fists were hardened: "Please respect yourself. If you continue like this, I will tell the Crown Prince, or does the Fourth Prince want me to report it to the Emperor?"
"Where do you think we should report this to? To the Crown Prince or to our father? What do you think our father will punish us with? Will he execute me, or you, or both of us?"
Li Hongyu guessed with evil humor.
Lu Shian really wanted to blow the bastard's head off. She knew very well that if this matter were to get out, if someone would die, that person would definitely be herself.
That's how it's played out on TV.
No prince would kill his son because of a woman.
She shouted, "Someone, come here. Is there anyone..."
Her sudden loud shout caught Li Hongyu off guard. He looked around in panic, and only became nonchalant again after making sure that no one was coming.
"Second sister-in-law, aren't you afraid that others will misunderstand us?"
"I'm doing everything right, why would anyone misunderstand me? Besides, wasn't I already shouting for help? Maybe someone is already coming this way."
"But I fell in love with my second sister-in-law at first sight."
"Fourth Prince, put away your evil taste. I am not someone you can play with. If you provoke me, I will provoke you back even if it means both of us will suffer losses."
Seeing that Lu Shian was really angry, Li Hongyu stopped laughing. He moved aside to make way for her: "Since the second sister-in-law wants to go back over there, the fourth brother should make way for her. Why disturb her?"
Lu Shian glared at Li Hongyu, then quickly left the pavilion.
Li Hongyu touched his chin and looked at Lu Shian's back with a playful smile.
A peasant girl, who had been unknown since her teens, suddenly one day was able to grow high-yield crops, cook many strange delicacies, and was particularly good at business. She could even dig out gold mines from the barren mountains and ridges she bought.
All of this is too coincidental, so coincidental that it makes people suspicious.
Lu Shian had just taken a few steps when she saw Li Hongting standing not far away waiting for her. She came to Li Hongting without hesitation.
Lu Shian didn't know how much Li Hongting had seen, or what he might have misunderstood. She decided to take the initiative and told him what had happened first: "I don't know why the Fourth Prince suddenly came out. Let's go."
Li Hongting took her hand and said, "Let's go."
Lu Shian looked down at his hand that was being held and followed silently behind.
When the two returned to the Imperial Banquet, Li Hongyu had already arrived.
Seeing the two people coming, he raised the glass in his hand and toasted them from a distance.
Lu Shian rolled his eyes, causing Li Hongyu to grin.
Su Qianqian hadn't seen her for a while. She looked a lot thinner and not as energetic as before. She didn't know if she was sick or for some other reason.
On the other side, Qin Jingzhi sat in his seat, watching his performance quietly.
