Lian Chen changed direction and walked towards Shi Sheng, a faint smile on his lips. "This humble subject greets Your Highness."
For a man to wear clothes of this color without showing any femininity, it was f * cking enough.
"Prime Minister Lian, remember to salute me this time." Shi Sheng raised his hand.
"It's my duty."
Shi Sheng raised his eyebrows. "I've done you such a big favor. Shouldn't you treat me to a meal to express your gratitude?"
"It's my honor." Lian Chen suddenly smiled a little dazzlingly. "What would you like to eat, Your Highness?"
Shi Sheng turned to ask Xiaoxuan, "Where's the most expensive meal in the capital?"
The corners of Lian Chen's mouth twitched.
"Golden Jade Tower." Xiaoxuan answered without hesitation.
Lian Chen's expression didn't change. He was about to reply when a certain princess said, "Then let's go to Juxian Restaurant."
Didn't she ask about Golden Jade Tower? Why did she go to Juxian Restaurant?
Lian Chen was obviously not used to her incoherent way of speaking. After a while, he said, "You need to make a reservation in advance at Juxian Restaurant. I'm afraid there are no seats available now."
"Ha …" Shi Sheng looked arrogant and said arrogantly, "I'm the Eldest Princess. Even if there are no seats available, you have to make room for me. Don't you think so, Prime Minister?"
This bastard actually told her that there were no seats available. If you stood there, who would dare to sit?
Did he really think that his title as a treacherous minister was just for show?
Lian Chen: "…"
He shouldn't have come just now.
…
Shi Sheng brought Lian Chen to Juxian Restaurant aggressively. They didn't look like they were here to eat, but to confiscate property.
The manager of Juxian Restaurant was so scared that he trembled as he greeted them.
This manager wasn't the one he saw before. Shi Sheng was wearing casual clothes, so he probably didn't recognize him.
Shi Sheng didn't recognize him, but Lian Chen did!
In the capital, other than Lian Chen, which man would wear peach-colored clothes?
"Greetings, Prime Minister. This commoner didn't go out to meet you. Please forgive me."
"Prepare a private room." Lian Chen spoke slowly, and there was a hint of enchanting in his voice, which made people feel comfortable listening to him.
Of course, that was if that person wasn't afraid.
For example, the calm and composed Shi Sheng.
"Yes, yes, I'll go prepare it right away. Prime Minister, please come in." The shopkeeper immediately invited them in. The people in the Gathering Immortal Tower all lowered their heads, not daring to look in this direction. The entire hall was silent and oppressive.
"Prime Minister Lian is so mighty." Shi Sheng's voice suddenly rang out.
Everyone around was shocked.
Who was this little girl who wasn't afraid of death? She actually dared to talk about Lian Chen like that. She didn't want to live anymore.
However, there was no enraged scene as they had imagined. The handsome man whom they feared smiled faintly. "This humble subject also does not understand why they are so afraid of such a handsome and dashing person like me."
Shi Sheng gave Lian Chen a strange look.
Was this guy narcissistic?
The first time they met, she felt that Lian Chen was a person she couldn't understand at all. Because of this, she liked to think about Lian Chen when she had nothing to do.
Now, it wasn't like he couldn't understand him at all.
He was very polite and always had a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, making people feel that he was harmless. However, when he was talking and laughing, he might give you a fatal blow. For example, that little palace maid.
This setting was perfect because he had a face that could turn people upside down.
Handsome was omnipotent.
But …
Where did this narcissistic attribute come from?!
The crowd couldn't understand Lian Chen's narcissism at all. They only heard him call himself a humble subject …
There weren't many people who could make a country's prime minister call himself a humble subject. Other than the ones on the dragon throne, there were only a few princes. However, this was a little girl, so …
This was the eldest princess — — Princess Changning!
What the people thought was naturally not within the scope of these two people's consideration. They calmly occupied a private room that had just been requisitioned.
The Gathering Immortal Tower was built on the shore of New Moon Lake. When they opened the window, they could see the rippling waves of the lake and several beautifully decorated pleasure boats floating on it.
"Your Highness, you came here just to see the lake?" Lian Chen saw Shi Sheng standing by the window for a long time and couldn't help but ask.
Shi Sheng couldn't see through him. Naturally, he couldn't see through Shi Sheng either.
Shi Sheng turned around and sat back in his chair. His face was full of sincerity. "I came here to be alone with Prime Minister Lian!"
"Alone with this humble subject?" Lian Chen skillfully poured a cup of tea and handed it to Shi Sheng. "Your Highness, please don't make fun of this humble subject."
Shi Sheng held the tea and took a small sip. It was a little hot, so she put it down again. "This princess is very pleased with Prime Minister Lian's beauty."
Lian Chen's hand paused and the tea splashed onto the table. A second later, he continued to pour tea. "Thank you for your praise, Your Highness."
Fuck!
This idiot is not easy to flirt with at all!
Shi Sheng didn't say anything else. Instead, he picked up his chopsticks and began to eat. Shi Sheng didn't eat very fast. His posture was elegant and noble. Watching him eat was a pleasing scene.
She didn't eat much. When she was about 60% full, she put down her chopsticks.
As soon as she put down her chopsticks, Lian Chen also put down his bowl.
The moment he put down his bowl, the girl opposite him said, "Prime Minister Lian, do you have a wife or concubine?"
Lian Chen didn't have a wife, but whether he had a concubine to warm his bed was unknown.
"This humble subject has no wife or concubine."
Lian Chen's heart was a little broken.
He felt that it was easier to deal with those old foxes in the imperial court than with this eldest princess. He had no idea what she would say next.
Shi Sheng's eyes curved. "Very good."
If he had a wife or concubine, she would probably kill him again. She would directly meet him in the next world.
Lian Chen: "…"
Why did he feel that the girl opposite him smiled so sinisterly just now?
What did it have to do with her whether he had a wife or concubine?
After eating, Shi Sheng and Lian Chen left Juxian Restaurant. The people downstairs were respectful and fearful. Lian Chen alone was quite scary, and now the eldest princess was involved.
What did it mean that the eldest princess was with Lian Chen?
After leaving Juxian Restaurant, they had to walk around New Moon Lake for a distance before returning to the main street. Lian Chen was two steps behind Shi Sheng and followed Shi Sheng silently with his head down.
His peach-red robe brushed past the peony flowers beside him, knocking down the petals that were about to wither.
Shi Sheng looked sideways at him, and Lian Chen looked up at the same time. At that moment, Shi Sheng saw a flash of vigilance in his eyes.
But in the blink of an eye, it was covered by the gorgeous color.
Shi Sheng paused, turned around, and faced Lian Chen. "Are you afraid of me?"
"Your Highness is the eldest princess. This humble subject should be afraid." Lian Chen's answer was still watertight, and his expression was just right.
Shi Sheng leaned forward slightly, closing the distance between them. She spat out a clear word from her mouth. "Liar."
"This humble subject doesn't dare." Lian Chen took a few steps back and lowered his head. His black hair fell to his chest and fluttered in the breeze.
White jade, which family's man, back to Tianjin by carriage.
Looking at the east of Mo, it alarmed the people of Luoyang.
