(Today, the third chapter has been delivered ~)
Chapter 455 "Everything Went Well?"
What angered Princess Louise the most was that after her "first meeting" with Du Wei that morning, the hateful Duke of the Tulip Family actually starved her for an entire day!
He actually dared to do such a thing? A dignified princess actually dares to not give me food to eat?!
For the next two days, Du Wei did not come to apologize. Needless to say, Princess Louise was annoyed.
But two nights later, a small banquet was held in the castle. When Princess Louise was invited, her first reaction was to slam the door and chase out the servant who came to deliver the invitation.
But after a second, she nodded and agreed to attend the banquet.
Not for any other reason, but because this banquet was a "farewell banquet". Nominally, it was said that Her Royal Highness and Miss Daisy were about to leave Loulan City. As the host, the Duke of the Tulip Family set up a banquet tonight to send off the two guests.
At least … … I can leave this damned place immediately! Thinking back, Princess Louise felt that she must have lost her mind to come to the Northwest to see the Duke of the Tulip Family!
Therefore, Princess Louise suppressed her anger and carefully dressed herself up. Then, she attended the banquet with a smile on her face. At least, she can leave this place and return to the Imperial Capital! Even if there are a lot of troublesome matters waiting for her in the Imperial Capital, it is still better than staying in this place!
Therefore, when Princess Louise appeared at the banquet, the beautiful princess immediately became the focus of everyone's attention.
The princess's elegant bearing and royal temperament made her the brightest star of the night.
However, compared to the beautiful princess, there was another important person who also attended the banquet. The famous beauty of the Southern Empire, the soon-to-be Imperial Concubine, Miss Daisy, appeared to be a lot dimmer.
According to the legends, Miss Daisy should be an extremely beautiful young lady. In the noble circle of the empire, Miss Angel, the younger sister of Marquise Lister of the Lister Family in the north, and Miss Daisy, who was born in a noble family in the south, were regarded as the two most beautiful flowers of the younger generation of the empire.
Moreover, when Miss Dailey had just arrived in the city, she had attended a banquet and everyone had been mesmerized by the beauty of the future princess consort.
However, tonight, Miss Dailey looked haggard and her skin was no longer as fair and rosy as before. It even looked a little sallow. She sat there with a dull look in her eyes, as if her soul had left her body.
In his empty eyes, where was the spirit of the past? Compared to the radiant Princess Louise beside her, Miss Daley looked more like a statue … and a poor one at that.
No one, however, showed any surprise at Miss Dailey's appearance. After all, there had been news a few days ago that Miss Daisy had unfortunately fallen ill in Loulan City.
After all, he was a patient who had just recovered from a serious illness. Naturally, he would not be in good spirits.
No one would know what kind of torment this future Princess Consort had endured these days …
After being coerced by Du Wei into writing that letter, Dailey had been blaming herself for two whole days. She was almost awakened by nightmares even in her dreams. Every nightmare was the same: the letter was made public, her reputation was ruined, her title as Princess Consort was abolished, and her brother, the Legion Commander, was dismissed and exiled. Her family's hopes of revitalizing had been cut off …
The fear and uneasiness caused Dailey to be unable to sleep at night and unable to eat during the day. After Du Wei "settled" her, he did not torture her physically. He also made her move out of the dungeon and into the castle's guest room.
However, the huge mental pressure almost made Dailey collapse. She deeply understood that in front of the Duke of the Tulip Family, she had been utterly defeated. Moreover, there was no chance for her to make a comeback in the future! As long as Du Wei still had that letter in his hands, she would have to maintain a respectful attitude towards him in the future.
As for the secret weapon formulas … Daley almost hated them now. Unfortunately, it was not easy to forget what she had remembered.

When the music started, all the guests stood on both sides and slightly bowed.
Then, Du Wei, dressed in a grand palace, slowly walked to the front. Bowing to Princess Louise, he extended his hand and made an inviting gesture.
In terms of status, according to tradition, the first dance of tonight's banquet would be performed by Du Wei and Princess Louise.
Although Du Wei was very bad at this kind of palace dance, he was no longer as immature as he was when he danced with Mrs. Lister during his coming-of-age ceremony.
Gently holding the princess's arm, the two had a smile on their face. It was hard to tell that they were enemies two days ago.
However, even though she maintained a polite smile on the surface, when the two stepped off the dance floor, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the princess lowered her voice and coldly said: "Duke of the Tulip Family, I didn't expect you to wear an evening gown today … Hmph! I thought you liked to run around barefoot with your chest bare! Didn't you break into my room like that two days ago?! "
Hearing this, Du Wei didn't get angry. Instead, he raised an eyebrow and smiled faintly: "Your Highness, please pay attention to your words. If such words were to spread, it would become a scandal."
Louise seemed to blush, but she quickly covered it up.
Then, when Du Wei put an arm around the princess's waist, the princess only snorted in dissatisfaction.
Amidst the music, the two gently danced a palace dance. Both of them had one hand behind their back and the other hand around each other.
This kind of palace dance, as a princess, Louise was naturally very skilled at it since she was a child. But Du Wei looked a little inexperienced. This became one of the reasons why Louise mocked Du Wei.
"Duke, I didn't expect your dancing to be so bad. My eight year old nephew, Prince Charlie, can dance better than you."
"My God, don't you know you have to follow the beat?"
"You almost stepped on my foot! I'm really worried for the lady who will dance with you in the future. "
"Ridiculous … Duke, are all mages monsters who don't know about worldly affairs? Or are you born with no sensitivity to music? "
After a few words, Du Wei didn't say a word. He didn't have the slightest intention to retaliate. He just smiled, which made Princess Louise feel uneasy. When did this guy become so easy to talk to? The scoundrel who threatened her with a whip two days ago and starved her for a day, wasn't he?
Looking at the princess's somewhat dazed expression, Du-Wei smiled and finally opened his mouth: "Your Highness, is the anger in your heart still not gone? If you're still angry, why don't you continue? I'll just listen. "
"You … What are you up to?" Louise looked at Du Wei uneasily.
"Nothing, nothing at all." Du Wei smiled. Following the rhythm of the music, he held the princess and did a spin. Then, he said in a low voice: "I apologize for my behavior two days ago."
"What did you say?" Louise almost thought she misheard.
"Yes, no matter what, being too rude to a lady doesn't conform to my principles. Moreover, I shouldn't have starved you for a day. " Du-Wei giggled, but then his following words changed his tone, "But, if I had to do it all over again, I might still do it."
"Why?!" Princess Louise said hatefully: "It seems you don't have the sincerity to apologize!"
"No! I've already expressed my sincerity. " Du Wei smiled amiably, but the look in his eyes made Princess Louise unable to look straight: "I have to tell you. You shouldn't have hit my people! My people didn't make any mistakes. I won't tolerate others bullying them, not one of them! Please remember this in the future. "
The princess was speechless. She did regret it afterward. After all, she had used a whip to randomly hit people … she, Louise, was not an unreasonable hedonist. It was just that she had been infuriated by Du Wei's cold treatment that day.
"And …" Duwei's eyes deliberately glanced at Miss Dailey who was sitting there, and then a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Because of Miss Dailey's matter, I think both of us are actually not on opposing sides at all. Also, thank you for your cooperation in the previous matter. As for this matter, I thought, I should just let it go. You're just being used. "
Princess Louise glanced at the haggard Dailey and suddenly felt nervous. She said with a trembling voice: "You, what did you do to Dailey? Did you hurt her … you … "
"Relax! Relax a bit! " Du Wei pulled Louise and turned around. Under the music, the two of them danced. Onlookers could not see anything amiss. Du Wei moved closer to Louise and whispered: "Don't worry, I didn't hurt her … nor did I violate her! Don't worry, her breasts are still intact! I have no interest in this kind of woman. It's just that I successfully persuaded her and then persuaded our Princess Consort to not be my enemy in the future — that's all. "
"Humph, I don't believe you are so eloquent!" Louise said with dissatisfaction.
"You are wrong again, Your Highness." At this time, the music finally ended. Du Wei's last words were: "When I persuade others, I never use my mouth — I use my actions."
After that, Du Wei winked at her and let go of the princess's waist.
After the first song ended, the second song was Du Wei and Miss Dailey, who was ranked second among the female guests, danced.
However, Miss Dailey's performance tonight was really below standard.
Princess Louise, who was watching from the sidelines, clearly captured a detail: When Du Wei held Miss Daley's hand, Miss Daley subconsciously dodged. Her eyes were full of fear and panic, as if she was terrified of Du Wei's appearance.
In the following dance, Dailey's body was obviously very stiff. She even accidentally stepped on Du Wei's foot. As a result, the future Princess Consort was so scared that her face turned pale. She hurriedly apologized to Du Wei. Her words were filled with panic, as if she was afraid that Du Wei would punish her for such a small matter.
With a stomach full of doubts, Du Wei brought General Longbottom to Princess Louise's side in the middle of the banquet.
Tonight, General 250 was dressed in a neat military uniform. His clothes were neat, his boots were polished, and there was a ceremonial long sword at his waist. All of these accentuated his masculinity as a soldier.
Although General Longbottom was a little fatter, he looked very strong. More importantly. After meticulously dressing up, this general looked extremely outstanding.
In fact, Longbottom's appearance was not that of a sloppy bearded man. Although he was a little fatter, he was still very strong, but his facial features were still considered delicate — if he lost a third of his weight, perhaps he would be a delicate man.
Of course, the premise was that he did not speak. After half of his life in the military, he was used to leading soldiers. He had long been used to the way of speaking.
"Your Highness, this is our Tulip Family's number one warrior, General Longbottom." Du Wei smiled and introduced: "Tomorrow morning, he will personally escort you back to the Imperial Capital."
Longbottom immediately bowed, stretched out his snow-white gloved hand, took the little hand that the princess handed over to him, and kissed it — a standard, impeccable hand kiss.
"It's my honor to be able to escort Your Highness." Longbottom's voice became a few tones gentler.
Du Wei was relieved — this guy, it seemed that he was really obedient and did not deliberately cause any trouble.
