Chapter 372 My Sister's Love Was Wasted
Zhu Jinyou returned to the carriage and asked a personal maid to call the maid who had followed him just now.
When the person was called over, Zhu Jinyou frowned. This woman was indeed Concubine Wan Lian Yun.
Lian Yun is very fair and has a good figure. Her beautiful fox eyes match her delicate nose and lips perfectly. Any man who looks at her for a second will fall for her charm.
Lian Yun got on Zhu Jinyou's carriage, leaned at his feet, and said in a soft and charming voice: "Your Highness, do you need a servant to serve you?"
Zhu Jinyou had a smile on his face, but his tone was very cold.
"Why are you in my team?"
"Your Highness, I just want to serve you, I have no other intentions."
His expression suddenly disappeared, and he continued to ask, "Why did you appear in Miss Luo's sight just now?"
Lian Yun was slightly startled, tears welling up in her beautiful eyes, making one feel distressed when looking at her for a second longer.
"Your Highness, you clearly know that Lian'er is loyal to you. If you truly like Miss Luo, Lian'er would certainly accept her. However, you cannot ignore Lian'er just because of an ordinary maid whose appearance and figure are not as good as Lian'er. Lian'er was just angry and wanted to see the Concubine Ying to see what means she used to win the favor of the Emperor and Your Highness."
As soon as she finished speaking, a handprint fell on her beautiful face. It was given to her by Zhu Jinyou's personal maid.
"Please be respectful when speaking to His Highness."
Lian Yun didn't dare to say anything, she just lay down at Zhu Jinyou's feet, trembling.
Zhu Jinyou helped her up with one hand and asked her to sit down. After a moment, he sighed and said, "Miss Luo Yu is my wife-to-be. Don't say anything bad about her in the future."
Lian Yun slowly stood up, but suddenly staggered and fell limply into Zhu Jinyou's arms.
"Lian'er is willing to serve His Highness for the rest of his life, even if it means being a concubine. If His Highness doesn't like me, I don't need any official title."
Zhu Jinyou pushed her away. This girl had learned all the charm techniques very well. No wonder the emperor was so comfortable with her service and loved her so much.
"Your Highness, you've said before that you only love Lian'er. Lian'er never doubted whether it was true or not, but Lian'er's feelings for Your Highness are absolutely true. Even if it means dying for Your Highness, Lian'er will do it without hesitation."
"Oh, I understand Lian'er's intentions."
Lian Yun squatted beside Zhu Jinyou again, resting her head gently on his legs, her slender hands resting on his thighs, groping upwards step by step.
"Then Your Highness, why don't you want Lian'er? Is Lian'er really inferior to that Miss Luo Yu?"
Zhu Jinyou then lowered his head, grabbed her wrist with one hand and threw her out fiercely. What a dirty thing! She dared to touch him even though she had served others.
Seeing this, the maid next to her immediately picked up Concubine Wan and took her out of the carriage. Although she was a personal maid, she was also a personal female guard who had learned good martial arts. How could the weak Concubine Wan be her opponent? She could only get off the carriage cursing and go to the carriage at the back.
Song Si sighed silently. This girl was truly audacious. She thought she had accomplished something, yet she dared to make a request to His Highness. His Highness, though seemingly kind to everyone, had a strange personality. He simply didn't care about anyone who was not his type. Whether a woman was a fairy or a beauty, if she didn't meet his standards, he would remain calm on the surface, but would always find an opportunity to secretly resolve the situation.
But he still gives people the impression of being an affectionate young man who never lets anyone down.
He is currently chasing after this Miss Luo Yu and is almost completely immersed in the role. Perhaps he himself cannot tell whether it is true or false. Perhaps it is because this Miss Luo Yu is really more difficult to deal with than an ordinary woman.
The team walked for another five hours and it was already dawn.
Luo Yu asked Qin Bingrui to have a good rest for an hour. She took out a modern charcoal pencil, made some disguises, and began to draw a sketch of the sunrise on the distant mountains while sitting in the carriage. In the fields not far away, there were already early risers working in the fields. The breeze was blowing gently, and the scene was truly beautiful.
Xia Liang came over with some delicious pastries to watch Luo Yu paint, and fed Luo Yu while eating.
Seeing this, Yan Xuan also came over to watch Luo Yu paint.
"Sister, your painting is so beautiful! How about you paint it for me too?"
“I’m not good at drawing people.”
"Then just draw me as a dot to embellish the picture!"
Luo Yu thought about it and agreed to draw a figure for her. Xia Liang happily ran to the big tree beside the ridge of the field and posed in a few ways.
Unexpectedly, he heard a woman singing softly from the other side of the tree. The melody was sad and gentle, and it was heartbreaking. Xia Liang leaned over to take a look. Oh, there was a woman as white as a piece of jade, wearing a green-sleeved silk dress, dancing under the tree. She was so beautiful that she seemed like a fairy fallen from the sky.
Xia Liang licked her lips. Seeing such a stunning beauty, her throat couldn't help but roll up and down.
"Beauty, you are here alone! Isn't it unsafe?"
The beauty shuddered slightly at the sound of voices, and it took her a while before she dared to look at the person peeping at her from behind the tree. It was a woman, and she breathed a sigh of relief. Xia Liang saw the beauty's face, and it felt so familiar. Did she feel like she'd seen her before in the palace? There were so many beauties in the palace, and they were all similar, so it was normal to forget them after seeing them.
Xia Liang thought so, then turned around happily and started posing.
Luo Yu finished painting Xia Liang with just a few strokes. Someone came over and asked her, "Who did you see just now?"
"A woman with a face as pale as a zombie was dancing here early in the morning for some unknown reason."
As soon as Xia Liang finished speaking, the woman behind the tree suddenly emerged, looking pitiful.
"I wonder if the two ladies are talking about me?"
The woman's face didn't look good. The girl had just called her a beauty, but when she turned around, she said she looked like a zombie.
Luo Yu frowned slightly when he saw the pale-faced woman. Wasn't this the same girl he had met once before outside the Emperor's bedroom? Why was she here? Thinking of the maid who had brought Zhu Jinyou the cloak last night, Luo Yu suddenly understood.
"Are you Concubine Wan?"
Lian Yun was slightly surprised, then smiled softly and said, "Miss Luo Yu knows Lian'er?"
Xia Liang looked as if she had suddenly realized something. She looked around and saw no sign of His Royal Highness Prince Ning. Why was she dancing here alone?
Something is wrong.
Then he thought, something's wrong. This woman has a face full of scheming. Is she dancing in this damn place for others to see? Is she trying to attract Sister Luo's attention? Could it be that she wants to use some trick to compete with Sister Luo for His Royal Highness Prince Ning?
Thinking of this, Xia Liang laughed sinisterly.
Luo Yu and Lian Yun looked at her at the same time, not knowing what she was laughing at.
"Concubine Wan, stop pretending. You just want your sister to see you and know that you were brought here by His Royal Highness Prince Ning, right?"
Lian Yun looked innocent, and his voice was particularly aggrieved: "Lian'er is the emperor's person. I followed His Royal Highness Prince Ning's team because I was worried about the emperor."
Xia Liang spoke quickly: "Oh, so, then you can follow me to the emperor's carriage later. He just needs someone to take care of his excrement and urine. You are husband and wife, so you can serve him more effectively."
Concubine Wan blushed suddenly and didn't know how to refuse.
After a while, she looked at Luo Yu shyly and said, "Miss Luo Yu, it's not that Lian'er doesn't want to take care of the emperor. It's just that Lian'er is afraid that His Highness will worry. Lian'er should go and tell His Highness first."
Luo E smiled. It seemed that Concubine Wan had misunderstood and thought that Luo E's personality was easy to control.
No problem, let's see how she behaves. If Prince Ning really liked her, why would he send her to the emperor as a pawn? This girl, after all, fell into the so-called love routine and couldn't extricate herself.
"Okay, since Concubine Wan is your Highness's person, it is necessary to explain it clearly to your Highness."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Wan quickly shook her head and said, "Miss Luo Yu, you should just call me Lian'er. Lian'er is not your Highness's person. Lian'er is just more familiar with your Highness before entering the palace. Besides, Lian'er is the Emperor's concubine, so your Highness is helping Lian'er out of kindness. Please don't misunderstand me."
Luo Yu smiled and shook his head, saying, "You don't need to explain anything to me. No matter what you say, I believe that he and you are just strangers who met by chance. Even if he takes the throne, you are just a concubine of his royal brother. There is no reason for me to misunderstand."
Concubine Wan: ...
