Protagonist:
Yan Qianqian
The youth before her shimmered all over with dazzling golden light, like a radiant golden statue standing there. Especially under the scorching sun, the light grew even more brilliant and dazzling, making it almost impossible to look directly at him.
Ouyang Qianyu looked closely and saw that the man's clothes were embroidered with lifelike gold ingot patterns, as if they might roll off the fabric at any moment; the headwear on his head was made of pure gold, flashing with dazzling light; not only that, he wore a heavy gold bracelet on his hand, and on his fingers were as many as three enormous gold rings!
Ouyang Qianyu couldn't help but secretly think: excessive dressing. Just then, the man named Yan Si quickly stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and then said: "You must be the noble Princess Ouyang? I once had the fortune to gaze upon your grace from afar at the imperial banquet, and since then, your charming figure has been deeply imprinted in my heart, making it hard for me to forget for a long time.
Today, by my father king's order, I have the chance to accompany the princess on an outing, and I truly feel it is a great blessing of three lifetimes! Recalling our first meeting at the last imperial banquet, I already felt Princess Ouyang you were graceful and beautiful enough to overthrow a kingdom, and today seeing you again, I feel you are even more beautiful and moving than before!"
However, after hearing these flattering words, Ouyang Qianyu showed not a trace of joy on her face; on the contrary, a nameless irritation surged in her heart.
Yan Si continued to chatter on: "Princess Ouyang, you come from the distant Xishang Kingdom, surely you have never tasted the delicacies of our Dachang Kingdom! Coincidentally, today I can accompany the princess on an outing, truly a great blessing of three lifetimes! I wonder if the princess would do me the honor of going with me to try our Dachang Kingdom's famous dish—beggar's chicken?"
This beggar's chicken is truly deeply loved by the people of our Dachang Kingdom! I hear its meat is incomparably tender and fresh; take a light bite, and you can feel the chicken juice gushing out like a spring, filling your mouth with rich meat fragrance. Not only that, it is wrapped in a layer of fresh and pleasant lotus leaf aroma, the two blending together, simply the finest taste in the human world!"
Yan Si was like one who had opened a chatterbox, chattering on alone, completely failing to notice the impatience gradually appearing on Ouyang Qianyu's face. Finally, Ouyang Qianyu could bear it no longer and interrupted him: "This princess suddenly feels a headache and discomfort today; I'm afraid I cannot go with you. You go back first."
Hearing these words from Ouyang Qianyu, Yan Si immediately panicked and anxiously asked with concern: "Your Highness, exactly where do you feel uncomfortable? Should I immediately go invite a doctor to treat you? However, those ordinary folk doctors may have limited medical skills and might not be able to prescribe the right remedy.
How about this? I will dare to report this to my father king and ask him to send an imperial physician from the palace to treat the princess. After all, your headache is no small matter; if the condition worsens later, the consequences would truly be unimaginable! So in my opinion, you should still..."
Before Yan Si could finish speaking, Ouyang Qianyu quickly turned around and went upstairs without looking back. Her light footsteps seemed to carry a hint of anger, each step as if venting the dissatisfaction in her heart.
Back in the room, Ouyang Qianyu could no longer restrain her emotions and began to crazily complain to Ouyang Qianqiu, who also lived in this room: "Oh my, what on earth is wrong with that An Wang's son! He's simply a freak among freaks! Aaaah, I'm about to be driven crazy! This person is so annoying, his mouth is like a string of firecrackers, never stopping, how can there be so much nonsense to say? And what kind of terrible taste is that, shining with gold all over, as if afraid others wouldn't know he's a vulgar merchant! I really am speechless!"
At the same time, Yan Si at the yizhan entrance was happily rejoicing that he finally didn't have to accompany that willful and capricious princess anymore. Just as he was immersed in this joy, he suddenly looked up and saw a gaze cast down from upstairs.
It turned out that the person standing upstairs was Shangguan Xingyu. This intelligent and beautiful woman happened to see everything that had just happened and naturally understood that Yan Si's attitude toward Ouyang Qianyu was entirely deliberate.
What Yan Si never expected was that he would actually be discovered by Shangguan Xingyu regarding this little secret. Shangguan Xingyu behaved very generously, giving Yan Si a light and shallow smile. Seeing this, Yan Si was first slightly stunned, then politely returned a smile to her. However, just then, he suddenly realized that his current outfit was indeed somewhat ridiculous, and couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed.
So he quickly turned around and hurriedly left the yizhan entrance, as if something terrifying were chasing him from behind. Shangguan Xingyan, who was completely absorbed in the picture book in her hand, suddenly noticed that her younger sister beside her had made no sound for a long time.
Feeling doubtful, she slowly raised her head and cast her gaze toward where Shangguan Xingyu was. Only to see Shangguan Xingyu standing quietly by the window, staring outside without blinking, as if deeply attracted by something.
Shangguan Xingyan asked curiously: "Younger sister, what are you looking at over there? So engrossed." Hearing her elder brother's question, Shangguan Xingyu turned her head, a playful smile on her face, and replied softly: "Me, I just saw that Ouyang Qianyu fellow suffer a setback! Hahaha..."
