Chapter 685: Greetings
Long Qian Xing's eyebrows furrowed when he saw those people appearing. He thought that there wouldn't be anyone who come to bother him, but it turned out that he was a bit too naive.
He stood up and cupped his fist while Nan Hua also curtsied. "Long Qian Xing, the Young Master of Long Family greets His Highness, Prince Yang Lu and Her Highness, Princess Mu." "Nan Hua, the first Young Miss of Nan Family greets His Highness, Prince Yang Lu and Her Highness, Princess Mu." The two of them would not skimp on their greetings at all. Though, it was surprising that Prince Yang Lu would be invited to this bind of party considering that he was placed at the house arrest. After the failure of Hai Family Rebellions <it was no longer called as Prince Yang Lu's Rebellions>, he was basically under house arrest with Mu Fei Xin. Prince Yang Lu cupped his fist back "There's no need to be so polite, Young Master Long and Young Miss Nan. We're only here because Imperial Brother invited us to watch the show. I didn't expect to see the two of you here." "His Majesty has kindly allowed this servant to be here in order to watch the selection." Long Chian Xing smiled. Princess Mu, Mu Fei Xin, smiled. "This one have heard of Young Master Long's achievement. His Majesty values Young Master Long very much." In other words, she was telling Long Qian Xing that Emperor Yang Zhou looked highly upon Long Qian Xing because of what he had done. It was a praise towards both him and Emperor Yang Zhou, but it was a praise that was leaning towards the Imperial Family. Long Qian Xing was still putting on a polite smile on his face. He should have expected that as someone of the Imperial Family, Mu Fei Xin was quite similar to the rest of them. "Her Highness flatter this one too much."
Mu Fei Xin smiled. She turned to look at Nan Hua and silently lamented that the young girl had to wear a veil at this land of event just because she was still unmarried. If that veil was removed, she was sure that none of the girls in entire Capital City who gathered here could possibly compare to her beauty.
Of course, she would not make any rude remark "Young Miss Nan, I have heard from my sister that you're helping her a lot. For that, I would like to thank you personally." Mu Fei Xin smiled brightly. Nan Hua curtsied back "Your Highness is too polite. Second Miss Mu is the one who had helped this one. This one should be the one to thank Your Highness for introducing me to her."
"I didn't do much."
The four of them were acting so polite on the surface that it was hard to think that they had already interacted much more before. After all, a lot of people knew that Long than Xing would surely side with Emperor Yang Zhou. With Emperor Yang Zhou and Prince Yang Lu's previous relationship, it was already good enough that they didn't draw sword the moment they met each other.
Even though the two of them could be said to have already put down the previous hostilities, it was still had to imagine the two of them acting as if they were good brothers to each other. Thus, many people were wondering the reason for Prince Yang Lu's presence in this Empress Selection. Long Qian Xing looked at the two Imperial Family in front of him. After that incident, the two of them didn't look to be as imposing as before and instead looked rather calm and peaceful. It seemed as if they no longer have any other thoughts towards the seat at the very top. "I come this time manly to watch Imperial Brother select His Empress." Prince Yang Lu nodded at Nan Hua but didn't look in her direction more than a moment as his attention landed on Long Qian Xing. It was impolite to look in the direction of a woman who was not his wife for a long period of time. "I won't disturb you any longer, Young Master Long."
"Your Highness is too polite. I wish you have a good time here." Prince Yang Lu smiled and exchanged a few more courtesy with the two of them before leaving with Mu Fei Xin. It seemed that he was indeed only here to greet Long Qian Xing before going back to his seat. "Have you meet with Her Highness before?" Long Qian Xing asked curiously. His tone was more that of a gossipy person rather than interrogation.
"Yes." Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing. "Her Highness is a considerate
And also someone worthy to be part of the Imperial Family. In front of others, she was still capable of hiding her real thoughts and only said what should be said without attracting other people's attention. Not everyone could do it as well as her.
Long Qian Xing nodded. "His Highness and Her Highness will be staying in the palace for the day and return tomorrow. If you would like to interact more with Her Highness, I would arrange a place."
Nan Hua was stunned.
Even though it was what Long Qian Xing said, the fact that Prince Yang Lu and Princess Mu Fei Xin was here meant that they would be guarded heavily. To meet with them privately would be harder than what Long Qian Xing said as a lot of things had to be considered first. However, he spoke as if it was so easy to arrange a private meeting with an Imperial Family. "There's no need, Brother Long. I'm not that close with Her Highness." Nan Hua shook her head.
They only met briefly back then when she was using her identity as 'Nan Hua.' What relationship could possibly the two of them have?0 Long Qian Xing looked at Nan Hua and acquiesced. Since that what she wanted, he would not press the matter. Though, he silently wondered where did Nan Hua meet Princess Mu Fei Xin.
The only plausible time should be… during that rebellion incident?
