The sun gradually set in the west, and a wisp of dusk shone on the earth.
Han Country's palace, Pure Lotus Pond.
"Zifang, this isn't the place for a banquet, right?”At this moment, a puzzled magnetic voice suddenly sounded in the quiet place.
Qin Mu stood on the arched bridge, and white lotus flowers that were as white as frost bloomed around him. The dense layers of lotus leaves spread out as if they were connected to the blue sky, and the air was filled with a refreshing fragrance.
Zhang Liang smiled and took a step forward. He used a voice that only the two of them could hear and slowly explained," Young Master, after crossing this bridge, you will reach the place where Red Lotus lives. The King has instructed…that you can have a chat first.”
As he spoke, he revealed a wretched smile, then bowed and retreated.
Without permission, no other male could enter Princess Red Lotus 'residence. Of course…Qin Mu was an exception.
When Qin Mu heard that, his brows raised and he laughed lightly." Could this be the process of 'matchmaking'? I didn't expect that…this era would also implement this.”
A blind date was when the parents of both parties met and then called the man and woman to a private place to meet and chat.
Wasn't this situation very similar?
Then, he roughly scanned the scene in front of him, especially when he saw the lotus flowers and lotus leaves under the dusk. He couldn't help but blurt out," The Heaven Connecting Lotus Leaves are infinitely green, and the lotus flowers reflecting the sun are unusually red…To be able to live here, it's simply a paradise on earth.”
"Good poem, good praise."
Right at this moment, a voice of praise came from behind him as well as a question." You're the Qin Mu that the prime minister mentioned, the one with great talent, outstanding wisdom, and the one who can conquer the seven countries?”
Looking in the direction of the voice, he saw a tall girl with a delicate face. She was wearing a pink-white cheongsam with a silver ring hanging on her chest. Coupled with her amber eyes and her black hair under the silver lotus crown, she looked abnormally noble and pure.
She was wearing a pair of peach-colored boots with cloud patterns. Under the dusk, she looked like a red lotus that was slowly blooming.
Obviously, she was Princess Red Lotus.
Qin Mu turned around and saw this, but there wasn't anything strange in his eyes. His gaze was clear as he waved his hand and said humbly," Princess, you must be joking... How could this lowly one have such high achievements? I'm just a mortal."”
You…you're really Qin Mu?" Princess Red Lotus stuck her head out and doubtfully confirmed it again.
Qin Mu nodded." Princess, it's me!”
His handsome face looked extremely handsome under the setting sun, especially his eyes that were like stars, adding a lot of charm.
"Ah?"
Princess Red Lotus was surprised and muttered," This is different from what Big Brother described…From his appearance, he's not a bad person. Moreover, his appearance is outstanding.”
A few days ago, her big brother…who was also the current crown prince, had told her about this matter and slandered Qin Mu for being a dissolute person who often went to the dirty places of Zi Lan Xuan. He was also a ruthless person who didn't want her to agree to this marriage.
But now that he saw her, he subconsciously felt that…she was not like that.
In fact, she had never cared about her marriage since she was young.
She knew very well that as a princess of a country, there were only two possibilities. One was to marry the son of a powerful official in the country to stabilize the relationship between her father and the important officials. The other was to marry a prince from another country and form a partnership with other countries.
She had thought that she had no hope of getting married, but who would have thought that…a young man with outstanding intelligence would suddenly appear.
Especially since this youth was neither the son of a powerful official nor the prince of another country.
Hence, she became curious about Qin Mu. If his character was good and he was handsome, she would agree to this marriage.
She was part of the royal family and knew how dangerous it was. Of course, she wanted to get rid of this cage and yearn for the outside world.
And Qin Mu was her only hope.
Little did she know that while she was pondering, Qin Mu was also sizing her up and thinking to himself,'Pure and cute red lotus? The cruel and cruel Chi Lian who killed people like flies? This is like a completely different person…However, since I have met her…and she has become my woman, how can I let her change?”
At this moment, he had made up his mind that he would never let Red Lotus come into contact with the Crimson Training Snake King in the future, and he would never let her face the cruel reality.
As the saying went, a graceful lady was a good match for a gentleman.
Facing such a pure and innocent beauty, no man would reject her!
Moreover, the other party was a princess.
When he thought of this, Qin Mu walked towards Princess Red Lotus at an unhurried pace. When he was seven steps away, he suddenly stopped and smiled." Your Highness, since you're here, why don't you show me around?"”
However, Princess Red Lotus flashed a sly look and questioned," We're not familiar with each other, right? Is this the first time we've met?"
In response, Qin Mu took a step forward and stretched out Bai Zhe's palm to block Princess Red Lotus 'eyes. Then, he took it away and shrugged his shoulders." As the saying goes, once you've met again, you'll be familiar with each other twice. Isn't this already the second time we've met?”
In fact, there was one more sentence that was left unsaid, and that was 'KFC thrice'.
Puchi...
Princess Red Lotus couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh when she heard this. However, it was quickly covered by her coughing.
Then, she blinked her big eyes, tiptoed, and placed her hands behind her back. She bit her lips and teeth." In that case, I'll take you to visit the places I play.”
After she finished speaking, she skipped ahead and explained the layout of the courtyard to Qin Mu impatiently.
Before long, pleasant and cheerful laughter came from the Pure Lotus Pond.
…………………………
The night sky was filled with stars.
Night Banquet Hall.
Ding, ding, ding…
Ding, ding, ding…
A few pretty palace maids were holding wooden hammers and gently tapping the golden chimes, making a pleasant and rhythmic sound, as if they were tapping some kind of music.
During the Spring and Autumn Warring States Period, there were only five tones, namely Gong, Shang, Jiao, Hui, and Yu. Together, they formed the music. However, these five tones were not sharp, but the melody was more smooth, elegant, and agile. It was in line with the hard-working masses who pursued harmony, so it was easily accepted.
Presumably, if it was a dolphin voice and rock music, he would have been beaten to death on the spot!
As the music started playing, the officials and ministers all took their seats, and Qin Mu was no exception... What shocked all the officials was that when Qin Mu entered, Princess Red Lotus had been by his side the entire time, and her smile had never stopped.
This scene immediately caused everyone to discuss softly and be surprised.
