Lu JinNian did not dare to let Xiao Su carelessly call her by her name.
With a 101 smile on his face, Lu Jinsheng walked into the room and cupped his hands, ”Greetings, Prince Huai.”
Seeing them greeting each other so familiarly, Xiao Rangxi lost her composure and said, ”Cousin, you and Eldest Miss Lu know each other.”
Xiao Su lowered her eyes, ”The day before yesterday, Brother Kong Lian invited me to drink. It was Miss Lu who helped me block it.”
Lu Jinniang smiled, ”The king didn't hold back, allowing my daughter to get three jars of Ice and Snow Wine for free.”
”Ice and Snow Brew! Those silkpants know that your body isn't healthy, but they still want you to drink that wine!” I will report this to royal father when I return! ”
Xiao Ran Xi raised her eyebrows and was about to stand up in anger, but was stopped by Xiao Su, ”Ran Xi, I'm fine.”
”Cousin, you are too good-natured.”
He already knew the identity of this lady. The current emperor had seven sons and a daughter, and this was the current princess of the imperial court, Princess Cheng Jia. If she really wanted to marry the Huns, she would be the first one to marry the princess.
After his smile deepened, Lu Jinsheng said, ”Your highness and princess are really on good terms, so my daughter won't disturb you any longer.”
”Wait!” Xiao Ran Xi's eyes lit up. How could she have forgotten about the important matter? She looked Lu JinNian up and down.
”You are the woman that scared my little brother Xiao Qi to tears? ”But you're really good-looking, Xiao Qi definitely isn't crying because of your face, you secretly told me the truth of Xiao Qi's crying, on account of you helping my cousin block the alcohol, this princess doesn't care about Xiao Qi anymore.”
”My daughter doesn't dare.”
Xiao Ran Xi frowned, ”You're not saying?”
”My daughter doesn't dare to accept Princess's praise,” Lu Jinnian smiled gently. ”In front of the beautiful Princess, she nodded and admitted that she was pretty. She really has let down her conscience.”
Xiao Ran Xi was stunned. She could only feel her heart beating rapidly. Her face couldn't help but turn red.
”In front of the beautiful princess, my daughter should have told everything she knew, but this matter concerns the Seventh Prince's secret. My daughter promised to keep it a secret from the Seventh Prince, so my only choice is to apologize to the princess.”
”She would rather be rumored to be the ugliest girl than to say anything?”
”This is an agreement between my daughter and His Highness, the Seventh Prince.”
”Alright then.”
Seeing the sincerity in Lu JinNian's tone, Xiao Jinxi could only sigh. If it was any other person, she definitely wouldn't give up and refuse to speak.
As a princess of the imperial family, she had plenty of ways to make you speak. However, Lu JinNian's sincere tone and attitude, as well as her silent praise, made Xiao Jinxi feel a little lost in thought.
As the emperor's only daughter, she was doted upon by thousands of people, but how could she, who was in the palace, not understand the difference between flattering and true love?
The people in the palace knew whose secret it was, and wished that it would be spread out before the second day. People in the palace knew whose secret it was, and wished that it would be spread out before the second day.
Girl, you're really thinking too much. If she hadn't let the rumors spread freely, no matter how long it took, it wouldn't have spread for four years. She and the Seventh Prince were just each taking what they needed.
