Qi Feixu had just left the stage, and the nobles below were all staring in amazement, but Lu Yan was not moved at all, which was really puzzling.

Even Lu Zhou looked at Qi Feixu and then at Lu Yan.

"I didn't expect that my royal brother is such a gentleman. Even such a beauty is unmoved by you. If you don't know me, you might think you are a saint without desires."

Lu Yan didn't look up, looking at the wine glass in his hand, feeling the warmth of the jade bracelet that had been kept on his chest.

"Thank you for the compliment, my royal brother."

Later, Zhou Liwan, the only daughter of Duke Zhou, also slowly appeared. Duke Zhou was from a military family and was the only daughter in the family, so she was naturally a little arrogant. When she came out, her eyes and eyebrows were unconsciously looking at Lu Yan.

Chu Qingyin looked at this scene and couldn't help but laugh and cry. She didn't expect that Lu Yan would be so popular among the noble ladies in the capital. As expected, no matter which dynasty or era, even in parallel time and space, girls are all obsessed with looks.

"Third Prince, I wonder if you recognize me?"

Duke Zhou is considered to be the childhood friend of the current emperor, so his daughter Zhou Liwan has the same status as his goddaughter in the eyes of the emperor, so naturally he is not afraid of her.

"I don't recognize it."

Lu Yan just glanced up and there was no ripple in his heart.

If there was any disturbance, he might be wondering what the solution proposed by the witch was, and how it was being spread in the capital.

He is still thinking...

What was the witch doing now? Now that he had entered the capital, although the capital was full of twists and turns, he really had no reason to ask the witch to continue writing to him.

After all, the witch was saving his life back then, but now his future, to put it bluntly, depends on his own luck.

"How could Your Highness not recognize me?"

Zhou Liwan interrupted Lu Yan's thoughts and continued:

"I've been in and out of the palace frequently since I was little. Many ladies know me, and even the Empress often praises me highly. As the Empress's legitimate son, how could you not recognize me?"

Lu Qian was really happy today, and he also had fun watching Lu Yan surrounded by these girls.

But Lu Yan was feeling irritated, wondering if the witch would write to him again in the future, and he no longer wanted to stay here any longer.

"I didn't spend much time in the palace when I was young. I spent more time training soldiers outside the palace. When I grew up, I also spent most of my time fighting in battles. That's why I don't recognize you."

Zhou Liwan saw that Lu Yan had said so much to her, and thought that he just wanted to talk to her, so she continued:

"I see. Your Highness is so wise and powerful, and has been supporting Yun Jin for such a long time and making great contributions. It's normal that you don't recognize a mere woman like me. But now that we meet, can we get to know each other now?"

The noble ladies below looked calm on the surface, but in fact they were already gnashing their teeth in their hearts. Zhou Liwan, relying on her status as a daughter of a general, could naturally come and go freely and chat with His Highness at will.

But they have been brought up as ladies from noble families since childhood. If they don't behave properly in such an occasion and chat with outsiders like Zhou Liwan did, it would be a laughing stock.

But they couldn't bear to see Lu Yan, who had just appeared, being taken away by Zhou Liwan, a vulgar woman.

After Zhou Liwan said this, Lu Yan did not respond for a long time, but just smiled politely.

The eunuch next to him had already seen that Lu Yan didn't want to pay attention to him. Unfortunately, Zhou Liwan was too dull and just thought that His Highness was shy. He was happy and continued:

"Your Highness, you may not know that many flowers bloomed in the spring and autumn while you were away in the capital. Especially the tribute crabapples from the palace, they are truly beautiful. If you have the chance, you must go and see them."

Lu Yan was so bored that he tapped the table with his fingers, but he still had to respond:

"it is good."

The Queen Mother, seeing her son's impatience and speechlessness, quickly called Li Wan to her side:

"Li Wan, come here, let me see if you have become more beautiful recently."

Since the Queen had spoken, Zhou Liwan had to go over reluctantly even if she didn't want to, and she kept looking back at Lu Yan.

Lu Yan thought that he would finally have some peace and quiet, but he didn't expect that the noble ladies from the capital would perform dances, singing and playing the piano one after another.

Lu Wei was really curious. He usually wanted to see these girls, and they had never been so enthusiastic. Today, they wanted to let almost all the noble ladies in the capital perform in one round.

"Royal brother, this is really abnormal. Aren't they usually shy and reserved and don't perform much? Why are they all on stage today? If you don't know, you would think today is some kind of flower viewing party."

Lu Zhou smiled faintly:

"That's because we have a good brother."

Lu Wei didn't understand why, but he just took this opportunity to pick all the beautiful women in Beijing.

"In my opinion, these old-fashioned ones are boring. They are not as interesting as Miss Yuanxiang from Yuanxiang Pavilion!"

Lu Wei laughed loudly, but Lu Zhou's expression did not change.

Lu Qian, who was on the stage, saw that Lu Yan and Lu Zhou both looked bored. He took advantage of the alcohol and said a few more words:

"Yan'er, you're rarely in the palace on weekdays, but your royal brother does everything himself. If you don't understand something, you can ask your royal brother. If your Zhenbei Army becomes a powerful force in the imperial court in the future, don't forget to assist your royal brother."

Lu Yan smiled very appropriately:

"Thank you for your advice, Your Majesty. I will definitely learn from you and serve Yunjin in the future."

At this time, the imperial concubine gave the empress a subtle provocative glance.

The queen still had a smile on her face, but she looked a little frozen.

Chu Qingyin couldn't help but sigh. Lu Yan was already so talented, but he was still outshined by them.

If I lose my popularity in the future, I won’t know how I’m going to live.

After this extremely boring banquet finally ended, Lu Yan's first thought was to ask General Li how the picture book he had sent to him a few days ago was doing.

It’s not that he was in a hurry to build a foundation for himself, but he really wanted to know how attractive the things written by the witch were.

But before Lu Yan reached home, he saw bouquets of flowers placed at the door.

Many people gathered here, as if to celebrate Lu Yan's success:

"Your Highness, thank you so much for your great kindness and contribution to Yunjin!"

"Yes, if it weren't for you, Your Highness, how could we still be here safely? We didn't understand before, but we didn't expect that now..."

Lu Yan was shocked, but Chu Qingyin, who was standing beside the camera, nodded with great satisfaction.

I have to say, her brainwashing skills are unmatched by others.
