Chapter 168 Shangyuan Festival

"Young Master, your two highnesses sent someone here to invite you to a banquet during the Lantern Festival."

Lu Chensheng was still in the house, and the servant hurriedly walked in and talked to Lu Chensheng.

Lu Chensheng was slightly startled when he heard this, and then frowned.

"You went and refused."

Lu Chensheng waved his hand. The two princes were looking for him at this time. It didn't take much thought to figure out what the purpose was.

He just wanted to win over himself and then pull the Lu family to his side.

No matter who Lu Chensheng agrees to today, he will be regarded by the other person as having defected to the other party.

The servant went down immediately after hearing this, but didn't say much else.

"Husband, wouldn't it be bad to reject two princes so bluntly?"

Qiong Yue listened to these words and looked at Lu Chensheng with some worry.

Lu Chensheng shook his head when he heard this, "Don't worry, Zhongshu Ling has been able to maintain neutrality for so long. They must have tried to win over me in private, but since they didn't win over me, my rejection was probably what the other party expected.

"

They were originally a neutral party, so they expected to reject them both.

At the very least, this is better than agreeing to one of them.

If they reject one of them and agree to the other instead, that will make them hold a grudge.

When Qiong Yue heard what her husband said, she felt that it made sense and immediately relaxed a little.

Although she is a master, she is not very clear about the affairs in the court. She just feels that rejecting the two princes so bluntly should not be resented.

The attendant who came to invite Lu Chensheng quickly received a reply and went back to resume his duties.

The two princes also quickly received the news that they had been rejected. They were stunned for a moment and then their expressions returned to calm.

This was originally something they expected.

Originally I just thought that Lu Chensheng might have some opportunities since he had been acting so recklessly and coquettishly not long after he had been emperor.

But now I see that either this person has been taught by others, or he also has some wisdom.

With Zhongshu Ling behind him, it is actually not a bad thing for the other party to remain neutral.

The Lantern Festival can also be said to be Valentine's Day.

When a woman to be married gets up early in the morning, she has already started to dress up, apply rouge, and spend some time choosing suitable clothes.

Lanterns have also been hung up outside the Lu family early. There are all kinds of lanterns, and there are various auspicious patterns on the outside of the lanterns.

When night falls, the lights will be brightly lit.

Qiong Yue and the girls are also ready, and they are going to go out for fun together.

But just when he arrived at the door, Liu Wensheng came to the door. Seeing Lu Chensheng getting ready to go out, Liu Wensheng looked extremely happy.

"Brother Lu, do you mind watching the lanterns together?"

With that said, Liu Wensheng called Qiong Yue sideways sister-in-law again.

Qiongyue smiled slightly and bowed.

"Then let's go together."

Lu Chensheng didn't have any other ideas. When Liu Wensheng came, they would just enjoy the lanterns together.

Walking onto the street, Lu Chensheng soon saw all kinds of lanterns, which were more numerous than those in the Lu family.

In terms of types, there are countless, and the shapes and patterns of the lanterns are all played with tricks.

You can see a lot of women on the street, but most of them are wearing masks.

There are many lanterns floating down the river next to it.

At this time, the entire imperial capital can be seen brightly lit, which makes people feel intoxicated.

"Wow, that lantern is so beautiful!"

On the fifth day of the lunar month, I suddenly saw a pink lantern carved in the shape of a flower. I immediately pulled Lu Chensheng and screamed.

When Lu Chensheng heard this, he looked around and saw that the lantern on the side was indeed quite beautiful.

Liu Wensheng followed and watched, "Speaking of which, isn't Brother Lu invited to attend some poetry gathering?"

"Invited, I just want to accompany my wife, but I don't have time to go."

Lu Chensheng responded after hearing this.

Liu Wensheng was stunned when he heard this, "It's a pity. I heard that there are so many talented people in the imperial capital. If Brother Lu goes there, he can definitely occupy a place."

Lu Chensheng smiled. He didn't think about how long he would stay here. He was afraid that he would leave here when some things were resolved.

I didn’t even think about participating in poetry gatherings or anything like that.

Moreover, such a huge lantern viewing place is enough for Lu Chensheng to see, why bother to go to other places to join in the fun.

The group of people continued walking forward, during which many women stopped slightly when they saw Lu Chensheng.

But after seeing Qiong Yue and the other girls, he left with a bit of regret.

"Brother Lu."

After Liu Wensheng led the way for a while, he suddenly turned around and shouted to Lu Chensheng.

Lu Chensheng looked a little confused, but when he saw the other party, he seemed to have something to say to him alone.

This made Lu Chensheng a little strange.

Qiong Yue was very considerate. After seeing such a scene, she said softly, "If your husband has anything to do, just go ahead."

"Madam, let's enjoy the lanterns first. I'll go and come back."

Lu Chensheng responded and left with Liu Wensheng.

After the two of them walked a little further away, Lu Chensheng looked at Liu Wensheng strangely.

"What's the matter? You have to stay far away before you can say anything?"

Liu Wensheng smiled when he heard this and said with a bit of mystery, "Brother Lu, please come with me."

Having said that, Liu Wensheng didn't say much and led Lu Chensheng to a high-rise building after many twists and turns.

"Sit here."

After Liu Wensheng finished speaking, he turned around and left, leaving Lu Chensheng alone at the table with some pastries and tea fruits beside him.

Lu Chensheng was not polite when he saw it, took some and ate it.

From here, you can see that both sides of the street below are full of lanterns, making it extremely bustling and lively.

It's a good place to enjoy flower lanterns.

"Cousin, what's going on? Is there something that we can't tell directly?"

Linyu was also dressed up today. She had been pulled by her friend and agreed to participate in the poetry meeting.

But before leaving, Liu Wensheng specifically told her that he would take her to meet someone.

It was only now that Liu Wensheng arrived.

Linyu was puzzled and didn't know what his cousin was doing.

Lu Chensheng was still eating some pastries to taste the taste when he suddenly heard this very familiar voice and was slightly startled.

Then my heart suddenly dawned.

Liu Wensheng, why would he be so secretive when he brought him to see Linyu, as if he couldn't see Linyu?
