Shangguan Wan cast a sidelong glance at Luo Chen, who was standing at the side. He was expressionless.
Everyone understood that Qi and this was "borrowing people to ease their worries."
Shangguan Wan felt that Wei He's method wasn't brilliant. With Luo Chen's stubborn personality, even if she married this King Zhaoping today, he would still pretend to be indifferent.
If she said that he should relax and be bold with Luo Chen, would he dare to disobey her at that time?
True love, even if it is against the moral, heaven and earth, sea dry stone, still want to hold the hand, never to let go.
"There is no need for Young Prince to be so courteous." Shangguan Wan still showed the courtesy she deserved, giving it to the two of them.
At this point in time, in order to achieve the desired effect, the empress had to exert herself in secret.
"Luochen, why aren't you looking at the tea?"
The corner of Luo Chen's mouth touched before he nodded and replied, "Yes."
How could he not know that this nosy fox was deliberately teasing him? However, he could only listen to her orders for now.
Luo Chen brought two cups of tea to Zhao Ping.
"Your Highness, please enjoy."
Zhao Ping had also heard about the matter between Luo Chen and Qi He. He had been wondering how Princess Qi and his beautiful, intelligent, and flawed eunuchs could possibly catch his eye. Now, he understood that the princess was only playing around.
How could a lowly eunuch be qualified to be the young prince's rival in love? He was overestimating himself.
Zhaoping made a gesture. "What, you don't plan to personally deliver the tea to This King?"
Wei He was silent as he watched the two of them with interest.
Luo Chen had no other choice but to place the wooden tray on the table, pick up one of the cups, and bow as he said, "Your Highness, please have some."
He could be humble, or he could endure humiliation. His greatest ambition was to get rid of demons. In addition, he could disregard everything else.
Every day is the Dao, and every day is the Dao.
Zhao Ping was still dissatisfied. He slowly opened the lid and glanced at the tea within. He was furious. "You eunuch! How dare you humiliate me!"
Luo Chen did not understand. He looked over and saw a fly floating on the water. He stole a glance at the empress, who was sitting high up, and saw that the woman was smiling.
It was her doing, no doubt about it.
Luo Chen was still very calm. He used a spell other than the fly and calmly returned the tea cup. "Your Royal Highness, there's no problem with the tea."
Zhao Ping laughed heartily. "Do you think this prince's eyes are blind? The tea is clearly..."
He looked at the tea and saw nothing in it.
A ghost? He clearly had a fly just now.
Qi He giggled and asked, "What's wrong with you, Prince?"
Seeing her smiling so innocently, Zhaoping felt ashamed.
It was all his fault for being impatient and wanted to put a show of strength to Luo Chen. Unexpectedly, he had lost his face.
Shangguan Wan originally wanted to teach this little Taoist a lesson, but things shouldn't get out of hand now.
"Looks like there's been a misunderstanding." She could not help but ask in a soft voice, "How could I let her play this round?"
Zhao Ping naturally went down this flight of stairs, feigning a relaxed smile as he said, "It's just a joke, don't blame me, Princess."
Qi He knew that this matter was not as simple as a joke, but since his Imperial Aunt had interfered, it would be inconvenient for her to get to the bottom of this matter. She could only slightly nod her head to express her understanding.
At last, Zhaoping took the cup of tea, but he did not drink it.
Luo Chen was about to pass another cup of tea to Wei He in the same way, but she took the initiative and took the cup herself.
Shangguan Wan held back her laughter, this pair of enemies was very interesting.
However, there was still some idle chatter. He lifted his eyes to Zhao Pingzhi and said, "Young prince doesn't often enter the palace. This is the first time I've seen him. He really is a talented person. I'm glad to hear that."
The fox spirit had learned to speak skillfully in the harem of cheating. To ugly men, one had to praise them as much as possible for their intelligence, and to rough men, one could praise them for being unruly and unruly, and so on and so forth.
Zhao Ping wasn't flattered by the empress's flattery, so his spirits rose a notch. "Esteemed Empress is flattering me, but royal father is indeed very strict with this little prince, which is why this little prince has my day."
Strict discipline was not a bad thing, but a sign that people valued him at home. Zhao Ping's implied meaning was that he was Ning Kang Wang's most beloved child.
"I'll see. Young Marquis, you and Qi He are in the right. How about I make the decision to betroth Qi and Qi to you? I hope that the young prince will not dislike this girl's mischievousness and willfulness. "
As soon as he said that, Wei He unconsciously looked at Luo Chen, but he remained unmoved.
It seemed like he really didn't hold any weight in his heart.
Zhao Ping, on the other hand, felt like he was in the clouds. Ever since he was young, he liked Qi He, but he had always been neither cold nor hot to him.
The marriage of a man and a woman was something that required both love and consent. He bowed and replied, "How could this little prince dislike the princess? I'm afraid of loving her too much, but I don't know how the princess would like it …"
