The Princess Royal 度华年 Episode 2

On the day of the spring banquet, in addition to the four candidates chosen by the emperor, young ladies from various aristocratic families appeared one after another, wearing fancy cars and BMWs, and the ceremony was grand. Among them, the carriage of the Su family is particularly eye-catching. As the representative of the Su family, Su Rongqing wore a white brocade robe and a jade hairpin, and her extraordinary temperament became the focus of the audience. In contrast, Pei Wenxuan appears a little simple and even poor.

Looking back on the past, Pei Wenxuan felt disgusted with Su Rongqing because of his involvement in his relationship with Li Rong, and it almost became an instinct. But Li Rong paid special attention to Su Rongqing and could not hide her love for him. Su Rongqing stood with a smile on her face and bowed slightly to Li Rong. Even though they were the same person and had the same words, they had completely different feelings due to the passage of time.

Nowadays, Su Rongqing is in his prime, and the Su family is also at its peak. As the eldest son, he is deeply favored by the saints. Even when facing the princess, he still has the confidence to be neither humble nor overbearing. It is precisely because of this that Pei Wenxuan felt bad when he saw Li Rong casting admiring eyes on Su Rongqing, knowing that the emperor would never let Li Rong marry a powerful person.

Since his rebirth, Pei Wenxuan has obviously found that many things are developing in unknown directions. There was no spring banquet back then, and there was no meeting between Li Rong and Su Rongqing today. But if Li Rong was interested in Su Rongqing today and insisted on marrying into the Su family, I'm afraid the consequences would be disastrous.

After thinking for a moment, Pei Wenxuan took the initiative to step forward and salute, but Li Rong ignored him. Su Rongqing noticed that the atmosphere was strange, so she simply pretended not to hear anything and followed Li Rong towards the courtyard. The two walked side by side. Su Rongqing's talent and grace moved Li Rong's heart. It felt like she had returned to the time in the princess's mansion, and she was glad to have met him earlier in this life.

The spring banquet officially began. Li Rong attended in costumes, played with everyone as the eldest princess, and tested the young masters of the aristocratic families through the game of winding water and drinking wine. Although Lu Yu is stupid, he is simple-minded; Yang Quan spends many years in the military camp and has a violent temper; Cui Yulang is dissolute by nature and likes to hang out in brothels. Only Su Rongqing seems to be a more suitable match for the princess, and he won the Li family with his superb archery skills. Rong's favor gave him an excellent inkstone as a gift.

Princess Huale talked about Lu Yu's performance of eating steamed buns, and her mother-in-law Xiao Rou advised her not to provoke Li Rong. Ning Fei Yang Wan tried to win the position of consort through her younger brother Yang Quan and reverse the family status in one fell swoop, but was rejected by the emperor. As the hibiscus cup fell in front of Pei Wenxuan, Li Rong suddenly spoke and left the table on the pretext of being tired, without giving him a chance to express himself. Jinglan was ordered to take Su Rongqing to the bookstore, implying that if he was willing to enter the princess's mansion, he would enjoy endless wealth and glory in the future.

Li Rong was in a good mood after seeing Pei Wenxuan's defeat, but Pei Wenxuan sent a message to remind Li Rong that if she insisted on choosing Su Rongqing, she would have to face two choices in the future: one is to marry a foreigner; the other is to die. Eighteen-year-old Li Rong was still somewhat innocent and kind, but now Li Rong was more thoughtful and had to take Pei Wenxuan's warning seriously.

On the other hand, Pei Wenxuan was exhausted physically and mentally by the suspicion and struggle in his previous life. Now he has more responsibility for Li Rong than love, more regrets than longing, and more concern for Li Rong's safety. In order to prevent Li Rong from making a wrong choice, Pei Wenxuan secretly created a dispute and caused Yang Quan to hurt someone. When Li Rong rejected Yang Quan's marriage proposal in public, he took the opportunity to let the servants of the Lu family take Lu Yu away, with the intention of destroying Li Rong's choice of someone else. The Prince Consort’s plan.

However, Li Rong had already seen through Pei Wenxuan's tricks, exposed him in person, scolded him sharply, and ordered him to be thrown into the water. Seeing Pei Wenxuan's embarrassed posture, Li Rong finished venting when he needed to. Thinking that he was only in his prime now, she relied on his rebirth to bully him, which was no different from bullying a child, so he ordered someone to fish him out of the water. Come.

Turning around, Li Rong saw Su Rongqing and couldn't help but recall the past. She tentatively asked him if he was willing to become the consort, but Su Rongqing politely refused. After Su Rongqing left, Pei Wenxuan put on clean clothes and sat upright in front of Li Rong. Li Rong stared at this familiar face, and her thoughts drifted back to the dispute between him and Qin Zhenzhen. She suddenly became angry and ordered the maid to bring the citron that Pei Wenxuan was allergic to, forcing him to eat all of it.

Pei Wenxuan looked embarrassed and lied that he had just eaten and had a poor appetite. Li Rong was not impatient and arranged the chess game in person to play against him. Seeing Li Rong like to start in the star position as usual, Pei Wenxuan smiled helplessly. They went back and forth like this for half a game. The two were shocked to find that the chess style and routines were similar to when they were in their thirties and forties. No difference. At this moment, they were thinking a lot, and the only explanation was that they both had memories before they were reborn.
