To Hold One’s Joy

  Chapter 432 Gifts

  Princess Changle turned to one side, reached out and pinched Wei Wen's wrist. It's just that the stab was too sudden, and it still scratched her hand.

   "Do you dare to assassinate me?" Feeling the burning pain from the palm of her hand, Princess Changle was furious.

   Wei Wen returned rationally, the blood on her face faded completely.

  Princess Changle took a step closer: "Wei Wen, you are quite courageous—"

   Wei Wen backed away in a hurry, turned around and ran away.

  There are lush trees and flowers in front of her. She ignored the delicate and fragile dress being scratched by the flower branches protruding horizontally, and ran back with her head buried.

  As if running back to the place where the ladies gathered, what happened just now never happened.

  Princess Changle stood on the spot, watching Wei Wen's figure covered by flowers and trees intently, and looked down at the palm of her hand.

   On the palm of his hand was a scar drawn by a golden hairpin.

  Precisely the best age, and a pampered princess, her hand is like creamy white jade. Because of this, the scar on the palm of the hand looks particularly shocking.

  Princess Changle took out her handkerchief and pressed her palm.

  The pain from her palm made her frown, and her eyes gradually filled with coldness.

   Seeing a walking figure, Wei Wen slowed down, straightened her slightly messy sideburns and skirt and walked over.

  The noble lady who spotted Wei Wen coming with her sharp eyes quietly pulled the people around her, and whispered: "The princess came here alone."

  Many people stopped talking and laughing and looked over.

  Facing countless inexplicable gazes, Wei Wen strode out without stopping.

  The maid of the Princess Mansion who was guarding in the garden hurried to catch up: "Where is the princess going, the maid will show you the way."

   Wei Wen paused slightly, and said with a cold face: "I'm not feeling well, so I'm going back first."

  The maid waits to say more, Wei Wen has already walked forward quickly.

   "Awen is going back now?" A cool voice came from behind.

   Wei Wen stopped abruptly and turned around suddenly.

  Princess Changle walked out from the flowers and trees, looking at her with a calm expression.

   Wei Wen clenched her fists, her palms were wet with sweat.

  At the end of autumn, the wind blows through the body and makes the body cool, and it goes all the way to the heart.

   Wei Wen raised her lips reluctantly, controlling her posture in front of people: "Thank you, Sixth Sister, for your kind hospitality. I'm not feeling well, so I'll go back first."

   She wanted to leave under the watchful eyes of everyone, but Chang Le couldn't forcefully stop her.

  Princess Changle did not stop her, but just smiled faintly: "Where, I didn't greet my sister well. Since my sister is not feeling well, let's go back and rest."

   Wei Wen suppressed her beating heart and slightly bent her knees: "Farewell."

  Watching Wei Wen leave quickly, Princess Changle withdrew her cold gaze and waved to Luo Sheng: "A Sheng, come and admire the chrysanthemums together."

  Luo Sheng walked over, and the two teenagers behind him followed suit.

  Princess Changle glanced at the two of them, and asked with some dignity: "Have you accompanied Miss Luo well for me?"

  The two teenagers hurriedly said yes.

  Princess Changle smiled at Luo Sheng: "A Sheng, how are they doing?"

  Luo Sheng obviously felt that the expressions of the two teenagers became tense, so he smiled and said, "It's pretty good."

   "Then pick one and take it with you when you go back."

  The noble ladies who listened with pricked ears: "..." There are gifts for the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet?

  Luo Sheng resolutely refused.

  Princess Changle's phoenix eyes swept across the ladies.

  All the noble ladies hurriedly put on dignified and serious expressions.

  They will definitely refuse this kind of gift, and they won't even consider it.

  Princess Changle smiled: "I kept you waiting for a long time, let's go to the pavilion to have a drink."

  The noble ladies tugged at their handkerchiefs, feeling a little unbalanced.

   They are all guests invited by Princess Changle, so there is no such obvious difference in treatment.

  As the girls walked into the pavilion, delicacies were presented one by one.

  Princess Changle raised her glass and invited all the girls to drink together.

  All the noble ladies gradually relaxed when they saw that Princess Changle was not angry because of the departure of the little princess.

  Luo Sheng noticed something strange about Princess Changle.

  From the beginning to the end, Princess Changle only drank and never touched her chopsticks.

  Luo Sheng glanced over Princess Changle's left hand holding the wine glass, and made a guess: Princess Changle and Wei Wen's avoidant conversation might not be very pleasant, maybe...Princess Changle's right hand was injured.

  This discovery didn't seem to affect anything, Luo Sheng drank fruit wine calmly.

   "A Sheng, I think you have changed." Princess Changle said suddenly, leaning into Luo Sheng's ear.

  Luo Sheng's eyebrows jumped slightly.

  Since Princess Changle came back to Beijing, she has been looking for her from time to time. After dealing with her many times, she can see that she is a person who lives a very arbitrary life and is moody.

   Such a person is very good when he likes you, but it's hard to tell if he doesn't like you.

   Maybe it will become a big trouble.

  Luo Sheng had such thoughts, and smiled gently on his face: "I haven't changed. Why does Your Highness say that?"

   "I don't like to talk or play anymore. The most important thing is that you happily accepted the face-to-face I gave you before, but now you are pushing back and forth." Princess Changle's tone was somewhat dissatisfied, and her eyes were full of unknown emotions.

  Luo Sheng smiled calmly: "Isn't my vision high? I think those two are not as good as the bright candles His Highness gave me before."

  Princess Changle was taken aback for a moment, then smiled: "It turned out that I didn't like Luqi and the others. It's easy to handle—"

  Princess Changle suddenly clapped her hands.

   All the ladies stopped talking and laughing, and soon their eyes were attracted by the movement at the door.

  Seven or eight teenagers filed in and stood obediently in front of the girls.

  These teenagers may be handsome or cold and arrogant, with very different temperaments, but they have one thing in common: they are good-looking.

  Looks very good-looking.

   Rao is that all the girls claim to be absolutely decent ladies, and at this moment, they can't help but their heart beats faster.

  The love of beauty is inherent in everyone.

  Even if it’s purely from an appreciation point of view, ahem, who doesn’t like a well-behaved and obedient boy.

  As for Luo Sheng's impression of the young men, apart from being good-looking, he also saw some clues: the young men had a faint shadow of Su Yao.

  Luo Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly.

  It seems that Princess Changle is determined to win Su Yao.

   "A Sheng, you must have your fancy this time?" Princess Changle's soft voice sounded.

  Luo Sheng looked at the other party, and saw the suspicion flickering in those delicate phoenix eyes.

  Luo Sheng's heart sank.

  Speaking of it, the one who knows Miss Luo best in this world is probably not Governor Luo and Luo Chen, but Princess Changle in front of her.

   After a moment of silence, Luo Sheng stretched out his hand and pointed: "It's him."

  The selected young man took a step forward, bowed his hands and saluted: "Ling Xiao has met Miss Luo."

  Luo Sheng put the empty wine glass on the table, and casually ordered: "Pour the wine."

  The young man with a cool temperament stepped forward silently, took up the white jade pot and filled the wine glass.

  Luo Sheng raised his glass to Princess Changle: "Thank you for the gift, Your Highness."

   I have collected everything, so there is no need to be shy, and it is good to take it back with Mingzhu as a companion, so as to save Mingzhu from having troubles alone all day long.

  Princess Changle toasted and touched each other, with a genuine smile: "Why are we being polite?"

  As the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet ended, a rumor quickly spread: Miss Luo brought a noodle back after attending the banquet!
