Chapter 41 part1
Chapter 41a: Deliberately Looking for a Fight
That exquisite young lady with a peach blossom applied on her forehead was lounging languidly next to Empress Wang, when she immediately fixed her gaze on Nalan Ye. Her eyes seemed as if they were radiating light rays. Once her previously uninterested attitude changed and she looked at Luo Qing Luan again, her heart already flooded which enough hate to make her teeth itch.
Today, Nangong Wan’er actually dressed up very meticulously to come. Even though this Flower Bestowment Feast was put together for the sake of helping her elder brother find a wife, it didn’t stop her from coming for a chance to join in on the fun. As an esteemed princess among so many noble young ladies, her female pride certainly was present all the more. She especially even had the palace maids dressed and groomed her more than usual.
However, she didn’t expect that Brother Nalan would surprisingly also come. This was really a nice surprise.
Even though last time, Nalan Ye kicked her out of his mansion, Nangong Wan’er had not given up in the slightest. She was previously too unruly and provoked Brother Nalan into annoyance. She could just make corrections in the future, that’s all.
Still, Nangong Wan’er absolutely never thought that Nalan Ye, who had never been interested in girls before, would take the initiative to open his mouth and ask Luo Qing Luan to play the zither. Was it possible that he liked her? He surprisingly was interested in Luo Qing Luan? How was that possible!
At the moment, her gaze chilled. Nangong Wan’er glared rigidly at Luo Qing Luan. As long as she dared to play another tune, let’s see if she wouldn’t have people smash the zither to shreds!
"I’m sorry......"
Who would’ve thought, Luo Qing Luan didn’t even spare a glance at Nalan Ye before she replied. "I’m a bit tired and don’t want to play anymore."
Nalan Ye’s eyebrows creased. Everyone thought that he would be angry. In the end, he didn’t say anything at all and didn’t even open his mouth, seemingly just letting things go.
Not only Nangong Wan’er, even Wen Wan and the other young ladies were also shocked. They didn’t expect that Luo Qing Luan would go as far as to publicly refuse Nalan Ye. This was His Highness the Prince of Chu we’re talking about, which girl didn’t like him, didn’t daydream about him? The Prince of Chu who had always been cold and icy and who was not easily moved by a young woman was surprisingly rejected?
"Luo Qing Luan, you sure have the gall. You actually dare to refuse! I want to hear a song right now, are you going to play, or not?" Nangong Wan’er was no longer to stand it and screamed out loud. If Brother Nalan wasn’t present, she would’ve immediately charged over and give Luo Qing Luan a lesson.
Luo Qing Luan had not spoken when Nangong Qing already opened his mouth. "Third Sister, what are you doing? Miss Luo is too tired and doesn’t want to play. She should rest for a bit, you shouldn’t force her."
Nangong Wan’er stared blankly. Perceiving that the brother who had always loved her dearly was speaking out for that girl, her mood darkened even more. At that moment, she became enraged and her expression became hostile. "My crown prince brother, you’re actually helping her? I insist on hearing her play. What, a majestic princess like me still shouldn’t be given this honor?"
"Wan’er, don’t make a scene." Empress Wang helplessly shook her head.
She could tell that her daughter felt jealous, because of that single request from Nalan Ye. However, she understood even more clearly that Nalan Ye and her own daughter were not a good match at all. It’s better to forget about it.
"Imperial Mother, this girl is too much. Brother Nalan wanted to listen to her play the zither, she wasn’t willing. Now, I want to listen yet she surprisingly even displays such a cold face. I’m the princess after all, what does she think she is? I don’t care. Today, I insist on making her play!"
While she spoke, Nangong Wan’er practically made a scene as all of the womenfolk looked on. They were secretly applauding in their hearts, looking forward to seeing Luo Qing Luan put in a bind.
Such an arrogant and aloof girl. She even dared to openly refuse the Prince of Chu and the princess? Where did she get such nerves. Did she think that by relying on her status as the general’s noble daughter, she could oppose the princess? If she still won’t see the weight of things, just see where it’s going to lead.
If this wasn’t the imperial palace, and there wasn’t so many pairs of eyes staring, Luo Qing Luan also wouldn’t allow a girl younger than her to treat her so rudely and unreasonably.
She had never cared who the other person was, nor care about the other person’s status, no matter whether it was a little devil, or crafty and unruly spoiled high-borns, who considered everyone beneath them, or those whose mind were dark. She had always given lessons to those who needed lessons, slapped those who needed slapping. She’d never been lenient when she acted.
However today, because of Empress Wang’s affections, who had treated her poorly, moreover, the occasion was not right, so she just restrained herself.
"I’m sorry, Princess, I’m indeed somewhat unwell. If you want to listen to my zither in the future, you can come find me at the General’s Mansion at any time." Luo Qing Luan could be considered to have given her face. Otherwise, she would not have said this.
"You......just you?" Nangong Wan’er was actually infuriated after hearing this, as her eyebrows stood erect and her face flushed red. "A majestic princess like me, yet you would have me lower my noble self to visit your little General’s Mansion just to listen to you play some rotten zither? You’re sure full of yourself. What kind of thing do you think you are!"
"If Your Highness is unwilling, I naturally also won’t force you." Luo Qing Luan responded indifferently.
"You.....what nerve!"
As he stood by the side, Nalan Ye’s expression was like the wind, as if he didn’t care about anything, yet he was thinking inside, this girl indeed had the nerves. Others had not experienced it themselves, but he had genuinely, absolutely experienced it. Once he thought about how she took off his clothes last time, and the way she even groped him, his emotions couldn’t help but stir. His gaze eventually swept over and fell on Luo Qing Luan’s serene, rippleless face. He could imagine it. Don’t be deceived by this lass’ docile looks. Even though she didn’t say it, he’s afraid that she’d already sorted out the princess a thousand times in her mind?
This lass was not even afraid of him. How could she be afraid of a princess?
As their war of words progressed, however, with Luo Qing Luan’s neither soft nor hard retorts, Nangong Wan’er looked like she was going to cry as she pulled Empress Wang’s hand and acted spoiled. "Imperial Mother, she’s bullying me. You have to stand up for me......"
Empress Wang naturally knew her own daughter’s personality, so didn’t care much about it. She only stroked her fact and said softly, "How is Miss Luo bullying you? She already said that if you want to listen to her music, she can play at any time for you. Stop being noisy now. Today is actually......"
