The Flirtatious Prince and His Savage Concubine

Although Concubine Su was just released from house arrest today, she was very familiar with the flower-viewing banquet and had prepared everything that needed to be prepared long ago.

As soon as she appeared at the flower viewing banquet, she chatted with the ladies and ladies of various noble families, and hinted to them intentionally or unintentionally to vote for her bonsai, dishes, and snacks.

Concubine Su was already famous among the noble ladies for her talent. She was indeed much more advantageous than Lu Lingxi, who rarely attended such banquets. Almost half of the people were surrounding her. This made her straighten her back and glance proudly at Lu Lingxi not far away from her from time to time. She thought contemptuously: "What about being the main wife? In terms of talent and cultivation, how can you compare with me? They only recognize me as the mistress of the prince's mansion, so you can just play with your position as the main wife."

On the other hand, Lu Lingxi was only concerned with having fun. He didn't think about competing for the first place to show his face, nor did he notice Concubine Su's eyes. In the end, he didn't even get to know these noble ladies and wives.

Soon, the flower-viewing banquet came to an end, and as expected, Concubine Su won the first prize. What was a little surprising was that she won the first prize in the bonsai, dishes, and snacks.

The Crown Prince's concubines Li and Zhu have always had a good relationship. This time, they discussed and gave each other many ideas, and spent a lot of time thinking about it. They didn't want to win all the first prizes, but they thought that one of them would win. In the end, all the prizes were monopolized by Concubine Su, who had just been released from house arrest.

Inevitably feeling unfair, the two couldn't help but complain:

"Oh, I really don't know what means Su used to take away the top three prizes." Zhu said indignantly.

"Don't be angry, it's just a small flower-viewing party." Li suppressed her anger and comforted Zhu.

"Having said that, it's really frustrating that we spent so much effort but didn't even get the top prize." Zhu still couldn't let it go.

"Don't worry, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future." Li said with a firm look, "We must find a way to let the Su family know how powerful we are."

The two smiled at each other, with a sly glint in their eyes.

In fact, in addition to the first place, the second and third place winners also received awards. However, there were not many participants, and the three awards were divided into three places. The second and third place winners were just awards for everyone's hard work. So even though Li and Zhu won the third place in bonsai and the second place in dim sum respectively, they still didn't take it seriously.

After the awards were determined, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gave out rewards to the concubines who won the prizes in front of everyone. Starting from the third place, when it was the turn of the champion, Concubine Su said with a shy and innocent face: "Brother Yu, I have never liked these material things. Can you change the reward?"

Although he had emphasized to Concubine Su many times that she was not allowed to call him Brother Yu, she did not seem to take his words to heart and continued to do as she pleased. However, in front of so many people, Nan Wangyu could not reprimand her.

After all, reprimanding her in public would hurt more than just her reputation. Nan Wangyu looked at Lu Lingxi's face anxiously, fearing that she would get angry when she heard Concubine Su call her "Brother Yu" again. But she saw that she was whispering to Concubine Shang, not paying any attention to the situation here.

He took a deep breath, pulled the corner of his mouth and smirked at Concubine Su, "What reward do you want to exchange for?"

"I want Brother Yu to accompany me tonight. We haven't seen each other for a long time. I have a lot to say to you. This is the first time I've been away from home for so long since I was born. I miss home and daddy. Daddy clearly asked Brother Yu to take good care of me, but you haven't come to see me for so long. Woo... Are you afraid that the Crown Princess will be jealous and envious, so you distance yourself from me? I..."

Seeing Concubine Su crying endlessly and slandering Lu Lingxi, Nan Wangyu was a little annoyed that she was scheming without considering the occasion, but in order to prevent her from saying more rude words and doing more rude things, Nan Wangyu had to quickly reply: "Okay, I will go to your place tonight, don't cry."

Concubine Su was crying, implying that Lu Lingxi was jealous and that she had a hard time in the Prince's Mansion. The onlookers also sympathized with her, thinking: The Crown Princess is indeed a daughter of a general, with an iron fist, and she suppressed all the concubines in the mansion.

On the other side, Lu Lingxi was only excitedly discussing with Concubine Shang, when to visit her pregnant sister-in-law? Should she visit Madam Qin? What kind of gift should she prepare for her future nephew? She didn't pay any attention to what they were talking about. Anyway, she didn't win any award, so it was none of her business at the moment.

Nan Wangyu saw Concubine Su burst into laughter and was about to continue pestering her, so he shouted to Lu Lingxi first, "Lingxi, come here!"

Lu Lingxi was puzzled: "What's the matter?" But he did not hesitate and walked in front of him.

"These are all for you." Nan Wangyu pointed to the rewards behind him that were originally intended for Concubine Su.

Concubine Su was shocked: "Brother Yu..."

Nan Wangyu interrupted impatiently: "Why? Didn't you say you don't like these worldly things?"

Lu Lingxi said in surprise: "Isn't this bad? But since my sister, the concubine, doesn't like these things, I have to accept them reluctantly." As she said that, she was about to take them.

Nan Wangyu held her hand, motioned Chunhong and Liulu to get something, and turned to the crowd and said, "Thank you all for coming to my house to attend the flower viewing banquet. Today's banquet is over. The Crown Princess has been working hard for a long time and is exhausted. I will accompany her back to the bedroom first, so please don't blame me for not being able to see her off. As the sky is getting dark, please be careful on your way back."

Everyone said in unison: "Farewell, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Crown Princess!"

On the way back to Changqiu Palace, Lu Lingxi curiously asked, "What happened to Concubine Su? Why did you refuse such a good reward?"

Nan Wangyu said helplessly: "Didn't you hear just now? She changed to another reward."

Lu Lingxi really didn't hear it, so he asked, "What did she change?"

Nan Wangyu turned around and looked at Lu Lingxi to make sure he didn't miss any changes in her expression before he spoke word by word: "She asked me to accompany her tonight!"

"Oh."

Seeing that Lu Lingxi's expression didn't change much, he only said "Oh".

Nan Wangyu couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. He pulled Lu Lingxi's hand and said more emphatically, "You just said 'oh'? Don't you have anything else to say? I'm going to spend the night with someone else. Don't you feel uncomfortable at all?"

His hand was pinched and it hurt a little. Lu Lingxi tried to pull it out twice but failed. He frowned and said, "You pinched me and it hurt."

Nan Wangyu didn't let go: "I just want you to know the pain."

His hand was pinched and hurt, and Lu Lingxi also got angry: "Why are you taking it out on me for no reason? You have a beautiful woman inviting you, why are you getting angry at me? You have already agreed to go, what else can I say except 'OK'? Should I applaud or send you off?"

"As long as you ask me to stay, I won't go."

"I don't want to. You guys just like to see women fighting over you, to make you look particularly attractive, right? I don't want to! If you fall in love with that girl, where can you sleep the night? You're not here, so there's no one to compete with me for the bed. Humph!"

After saying this, Lu Lingxi pulled his hand out and ran away.
