MTL - To Hold One’s Joy-Chapter 429 invitation

  Chapter 429 Invitation

  The Imperial Academy is a noble yamen, and most of the people who go in and out of it are calm and relaxed.

  It's time to leave the office, Su Yao greeted Lu Yu's colleagues, and walked out at a leisurely pace.

  Those who had spoken to Su Yao inevitably felt somewhat regretful in their hearts.

  Su Xiuzhuan is young and talented, with outstanding character. He should have a bright future. It is a pity to marry Pingnan Wangfu.

  Su Yao walked out of the Yamen, and heard a shout: "Su Yao—"

  The girl's voice was soft and lazy, but it made the Hanlin people walking out pause in their footsteps, and the vigilance in their eyes was like a scourge.

  Su Yao bowed his hands politely to the girl standing in front of him: "I have seen Your Highness."

  Princess Changle chuckled lightly: "Why doesn't Su Xiuzhuan go to a restaurant recently?"

  Su Yao replied calmly: "I am too shy to go."

  As soon as these words came out, many people quietly bent the corners of their lips, thinking that Su Xiuzhuan was neither humble nor condescending when facing Princess Changle. See how impeccable the answer was, so that Princess Changle couldn't find any faults.

  Princess Changle raised her eyebrows, and said with a smile: "I am a good friend with the owner of a restaurant. If Su Xiuzhuan goes, I will ask Ah Sheng to give you a discount."

   "Even if it's a 10% discount, I can't afford it with the salary of a humble minister." Su Yao said lightly.

  Princess Changle pursed her lips and said, "I can be the host."

  Su Yaoke said politely: "Thank you for your generosity, but I have a marriage contract, and it is inappropriate to drink with other women."

  Princess Changle sneered: "Su Xiuzhuan is so young, why is he as boring as an old master."

   Can't drink with other women if you have a marriage contract?

  Those stinky men who marry wives still hug left and right, and there are a bunch of concubines.

  What's different about Su Yao?

  Princess Changle fixedly looked at the handsome and unparalleled young man in front of her, and gradually changed her mind about having fun.

  Su Yao lowered his eyes and cupped his hands: "This minister is such a boring person, I hope His Highness will forgive me."

   "What if I don't forgive the crime?"

  Su Yao straightened his back, and asked lightly: "How does His Highness plan to deal with this humble minister?"

  Princess Changle was stunned for a moment, her snow-jade face covered with frost.

  Su Yao was so courageous that he contradicted her in public.

   This means that she can't attack the fiance of the little princess of Pingnan Palace?

   Following the silence of Princess Changle, the atmosphere became tense for a while, and many people cast concerned and worried eyes on Su Yao.

   But Su Yao was still calm, and there was no panic or annoyance in the eyes that looked at Princess Changle.

   This made Princess Changle understand that he is not a person who is motivated.

   Such people are often difficult to change their minds.

  Princess Changle smiled: "When we meet friends, we want to share the same interests. If you love me, I will. I am just joking. Su Xiuzhuan should not take it to heart."

  Su Yao raised his lips and smiled: "I don't dare. Your Highness doesn't care about me, I am grateful."

  Princess Changle looked at the young man's peaceful eyes and smiled: "I don't see the meaning of Su Xiuzhuan's gratitude. Su Xiuzhuan is really grateful, why don't you treat me to a drink."

  Seeing that Su Yao was silent, Princess Changle hooked her lips: "Yes, Su Xiuzhuan has a marriage contract, so it's inconvenient to drink with other women."

  Su Yao didn't speak, but just cupped his hands at Princess Changle.

  Princess Changle had no intention of giving up, and asked with a smile, "Has Su Xiuzhuan and his fiancée ever had wine together?"

  Su Yao suddenly noticed that those gazes turned from concern to curiosity.

   Watching the excitement and spreading gossip has always been human nature.

   "This is a private matter of this minister, so it is inconvenient to tell others." Su Yao said lightly.

   "Can't you say that?" Princess Changle looked calm, but she was already angry in her heart, "Su Xiuzhuan is very protective of the reputation of his fiancée."

  Su Yao said neither humble nor overbearing: "Ethics are stricter for women, and it is right to protect the reputation of fiancee."

  Princess Changle pursed her lips.

  Fiancee, fiancee, Su Yao has one fiancee, does he value Wei Wen more than his eyeballs?

   Is it because Wei Wen was born in Pingnan Palace, or is it purely because of Wei Wen?

  Princess Changle took a step forward and lowered her voice: "What if Su Xiuzhuan's fiancée is not the princess?"

  Su Yao was stunned for a moment, and said without changing his face: "No matter who it is, it's the same reason."

   "Really?" Princess Changle took a deep look at Su Yao, and strode away.

  Su Yaoli stood motionless in the same place, letting the autumn wind quietly roll up the hem of the blue official robe.

  Several colleagues surrounded him and offered words of comfort.

   "Su Xiuzhuan, I don't admire anything else, but I admire your strength of character that doesn't fall into our Imperial Academy when facing that person."

  Princess Changle is currently the only child of the emperor, who would dare to provoke her.

   "That's right, Su Xiuzhuan, you offended that person, you should be more careful in the future..."

  Listening to the relief from his colleagues, Su Yao cupped his hands and expressed his thanks in a humble tone.

  Princess Changle lifted the curtains of the car, and glanced at the young man in green robe standing out from the crowd in front of the Imperial Academy.

  The wind blew, and the gauze curtain slipped from the fingertips, blocking the line of sight.

  Princess Changle leaned on the soft pillow and closed her eyes, covering the emotions in her eyes.

  In the gazebo in the garden of Pingnan Palace, Wei Wen stared gloomyly at the carp playing in the lotus pond, throwing fish food every now and then.

  The rumor that Princess Changle favored the champion Lang Su Yao had already reached her ears.

  When Wei Wen heard this rumor for the first time, she was outraged, and even had the urge to go to Princess Changle to make a theory.

  The father was seriously ill, the elder brother lost his position as the crown prince, and the second elder brother was obsessed with masculinity. The entire Pingnan Palace changed from a flowery brocade in the past to a joke in the eyes of the world, and everyone avoided it for fear.

  She already has nothing, why does Chang Le still want to hit her fiancé's idea!

  Marriage with the new champion Su Yao is already the only pride she has left.

   That impulse was defeated by reality.

   It is precisely because she has nothing, so why should she argue with Princess Changle.

  A drop of tear fell quietly and sank into the pool.

  A purple-clothed servant girl walked quickly into the gazebo, and said in a low voice: "Princess, I heard the news from Hesong that Princess Changle went to the Hanlin Academy to block Mr. Su..."

   Wei Wen's eyes flashed fiercely, and she forced herself to ask calmly, "And then?"

  He Song is Su Yao's book boy.

  Wei Wen was extremely satisfied with this marriage. Due to the current situation in the Pingnan Palace, it was inconvenient to have more contact with Su Yao, so she ordered her confidant, Zisu, to establish a good relationship with Su Yao's book boy.

  Shutong's enthusiastic response made her feel much more at ease, which showed that Su Yao didn't have the intention of regretting the marriage because of the disaster in the palace.

   Later, there were rumors that Princess Changle was playing with Zhuangyuanlang, and the connection between Zisu and Hesong became more and more.

  Zisu repeated what he heard from He Song, and comforted Wei Wen: "Don't worry, princess, Mr. Su won't fall for that one, he only has the princess in his heart..."

   Wei Wen felt a little heavy, but also a little proud, and it was extremely complicated at the moment.

   Within a few days, an invitation from the Princess Mansion was delivered to Wei Wen.
