Chapter 41b: Deliberately Looking for a Fight
"Imperial Mother, even you"re helping her? I hate that girl!"
Nangong Wan"er stood up at once and pointed at Luo Qing Luan as enraged tears dripped across her whole face. "I hate her!"
After she spoke, she didn"t wait for everyone to react as she turned and ran away.
Seeing this, the servant maid waiting by the side promptly yelled "Princess, careful", and chased after her, making Empress w.a.n.g helplessly force a bitter smile. She really couldn"t do anything about her daughter.
Seeing Nangong Wan"er finally leave, Nangong Qing was just about to console Luo Qing Luan when the latter also stood up, bowed and said, "I apologize, Empress w.a.n.g, I made the princess unhappy today. This servant is terrified. I had better leave early."
Nangong Qing promptly cried out, "Miss Luo is not feeling well? Then will you allow me to send you home?"
"I won"t trouble Your Highness. I should just return on my own." Luo Qing Luan rejected his offer.
She originally didn"t want to come to today"s Flower Bestowment Feast anyway. It"s about right to use the princess" disturbance as an excuse to go home. She still had not finished writing her latest romance novel! It"s better to go home and write some books to make money, avoid spending time with these hypocritical high-born women, and even wasting her brains. As far as this crown prince who"d fallen for her, she should avoid him even more.
In regards to that abominable Nalan Ye, if it wasn"t for him purposefully stirring up trouble……
Thinking to this point, Luo Qing Luan sneaked a glance at him without exposing the slightest trace. This man actually displayed an expression of not giving a care, wrapped in a robe of clouds, standing out among the crowd of high-cla.s.s, and charming women and brilliantly colorful blooming flowers. The importance of today"s Flower Bestowment Feast was out of the ordinary, yet on such a big day, he actually still wore an all black robe?
Indeed a crane in a flock of chickens who directly suppressed the man of the hour, Nangong Qing. Against reason, he even leisurely sat by the side and drank tea contentedly, not caring in the slightest about what had just happened. He didn"t even spare her a glance.
Abominable, d.a.m.n him. He"d better watch out in the future!
She certainly wouldn"t forget about the matter of him drawing a cat face on her last time. So humiliating, just wait and see!
Luo Qing Luan gave Nalan Ye a good scolding in her mind. Merely, none of those thoughts could show on her face. Afterwards, she bid goodbye to Empress w.a.n.g again. Before leaving, she silently cursed Nalan Ye yet a few more times before following w.a.n.g Xue Ru. With the palace maids leading them, they headed towards a palace exit.
They barely came for a short while today and were already leaving, w.a.n.g Xue Ru was quite unwilling, heart unreconciled. In the vicinity, there was only her and Luo Qing Luan, along with one young palace maid who she attached no importance to. No longer putting on pretenses, she scolded. "Qing Luan, you"ve done it today. Not only did you offend Madam Wen, Miss Wen, you even offended Her Highness the princess. See if your father doesn"t give you a proper lesson when you return. Really! Our General Mansion"s face has been thrown to the bottom most by you."
She just knew that her father"s concubine wasn"t going to let matters rest. As a matter of fact, they had not even arrived home before she lectured her. Luo Qing Luan was used to it since long ago and replied indifferently, "Oh. Is it possible that Father"s Concubine want to go home and complain to my father and have Father punish me?"
"Is my complaint going to even be necessary?"
w.a.n.g Xue Ru continued with a solemn face. "So many people witnessed what happened today, do you think it can be concealed? I"m afraid your father already got wind of it by now. A good scolding will be waiting for you when you get home. Simply have no sense of manners……"
"Aiyo, it"s so difficult to visit the palace for once. Isn"t it true a meal hasn"t even been eaten? Why in such a rush to leave?"
Just at this time, four or five women appeared in front of them, lead by a girl whose face was still br.i.m.m.i.n.g with childishness, wearing a pink palace style dress, on whose forehead a peach blossom was drawn. Her skin was as white as snow, att.i.tude seemingly charming, yet carried a trace of provocation as she walked over with no good intention.
Nangong Wan"er?
Once Luo Qing Luan saw her, she felt that there"s little chance of it being an accident. Never thought that she"d still encounter this girl when leaving the palace. Very likely, this girl deliberately waited here for her? No doubt this princess was truly impatient and wanted to give her a lesson.
Once she saw the approaching people, w.a.n.g Xue Ru was scared into a laughing. Her previous scorching chiding expression immediately changed to a servant"s flattering appearance. "Turns out it"s Third Princess. This servant pays respect to Your Highness the princess." After she spoke, she promptly also pulled Luo Qing Luan as she berated. "The princess has come. Still not paying your respects to the princess?"
Knowing well that the other person came to find fault with her, how could Luo Qing Luan pay her any heed?
In but a split second, the face of a palace maid beside Nangong Wan"er already turned solemn as she coldly shouted, "Audacious! You"ve seen Her Highness the Princess, yet still don"t kneel and pay your respects?"
Luo Qing Luan"s cold eyes swept over the palace maid, such that the other"s heart felt a chill from her heart spreading through her body, before she responded. "Greetings Princess, I and Father"s Concubine are about to leave the palace. There"s no need for the princess to see us off. Thank you for your kind intentions."
"Who"s here to see you off. You"re sure full of yourself!" One sentence angered Nangong Wan"er to the point her complexion blanched.
"Since Princess isn"t here to see me off, then we won"t continue to stay. We take our leave."
"Stop there!"
Nangong Wan"er originally waited on purpose to try to find an opportunity to give Luo Qing Luan a good scolding. How could she easily let her go? She"d only just barely give the other a light reprimand. The other girl dressed in green by her side also opened her mouth. "Miss Luo, you"ve seen Her Highness the Princess, yet not only did you not pay your respects, you instead left urgently. Did you do something shameful and are afraid of being found out?"
She sized Luo Qing Luan up and down while sneering softly. "Just now, at the Flower Bestowment Feast, all of the china ware were of considerable worth. This is also the imperial palace where there are treasures everywhere. Who knows if Miss Luo has stolen something, causing you to run off so hastily?"
These words resonated perfectly with her thoughts. Nangong Wan"er glanced at Li Shuyun with praise. Worthy of being Duke Wei"s granddaughter, Shiyun"s words agreed completely with her intentions. Knowing that she wanted to find trouble with Luo Qing Luan, Li Shuyun had followed as if feeling indignant at injustice.
"Not bad. What Shuyun is thinking is exactly what I"m thinking." Nangong Wan"er smiled coldly, arrogant expression in full display. "Don"t think that I won"t doubt you, because you"re a general"s daughter. Who doesn"t know that Luo Qing Luan has never been favored by General Luo and whose mother has already pa.s.sed away. Your life has been very dest.i.tute and simple……"
Hearing this, w.a.n.g Xue Ru"s soul just about escaped her as she promptly declared, "It"s not like that, Princess. This servant has never been unkind before……"
With a tilt of her head, Nangong Wan"er interrupted her and replied coldly. "I"m not talking about you. Shut your mouth. If any uninvolved person dares to speak again, slap her for me!"
After she finished speaking, she glared at Luo Qing Luan again as large, round eyes narrowed, before speaking levelly. "If Miss Luo"s fingers tend to be sticky-fingered and took something from the imperial palace, that won"t be good. In order to have you avoid doing wrong and getting found out by the imperial bodyguards, better let me help search you first."
"Why are you guys still not moving, search her!"
