Chapter 156 How can these women be so shameless?

Lu Ji left Yilan Palace and was led by the eunuch to visit King Zhao Pan of Qi. Halfway there, by chance, he ran into the Seventh Princess.

Lu Ji bowed to the visitor according to etiquette, but the Seventh Princess did not return the greeting. She stood there not too far away and did not speak, just staring at Lu Ji.

Lu Ji lowered his eyes and politely waited for a long time without seeing the princess's response, so he lost his patience and was about to leave.

What's so great about a royal princess?

He went to the battlefield at the age of fourteen. He earned all his achievements through his own skills, fighting with sword and gun. How could he be controlled by a woman?

When the Seventh Princess saw Lu Ji was about to leave, she hurriedly called out, "Young General Lu—"

Hearing someone calling him like that, Lu Ji paused slightly but did not turn around. He asked in a cold voice, "Princess, are you calling me, Lu?"

"Of course I'm calling you, General."

When he was young, people in the capital called him like this, but now he no longer hears anyone calling him like that.

This princess is so strange. Lu Ji doesn't want to pay attention to her, not for any other reason, but because the saint had secretly forced them to marry, which made Lu Ji annoyed with this seventh princess.

I have never been forced by anyone in my life.

I just can't get over that hurdle in my heart.

"I am going to see the King of Qi." After saying this coldly, Lu Ji walked away.

Seeing this, the Seventh Princess no longer cared about what she was doing, and hurried over to stop the man: "I have something to say to General Lu."

Hearing her addressing me like that, I just felt so awkward.

"Princess, please call me General Lu." He couldn't help but correct.

The man had a dignified and solemn demeanor, and there was a hint of helplessness on his face when he said this, which somewhat diluted the man's solemnity and made him seem more approachable.

So cute.

Lu Ji had no idea what the princess was thinking. If he knew that the princess thought of him as "cute", he would definitely be furious.

The man had a short temper and had already reached his limit. He looked impatient again, "What's the matter, Princess?"

The Seventh Princess took two steps forward, and Lu Ji stepped back with a cold look in his eyes: "Princess, if you have something to say, please speak up. I am busy."

The Seventh Princess smiled and said in a sweet voice, "There is a reason why I call the general General Lu."

She spoke slowly, as if she was deliberately keeping you in suspense.

Lu Ji had a sullen face and forced himself to be patient.

The princess continued, "We met each other when we were young."

Lu Ji was puzzled, but said nothing, just waiting for her to speak.

Speaking of the past, the Seventh Princess showed shyness on her face: "That was ten years ago. During the Lantern Festival that year, my Ninth Brother and I sneaked out of the palace to play and had a banquet at Yanyue Tower, but we didn't bring any money with us, which made the bartender embarrassed. He wanted to arrest us and report us to the authorities. Fortunately, the general came to my rescue."

It happened eight hundred years ago and Lu Ji had long forgotten it, but he had some impression of the Ninth Prince mentioned by the princess.

The late emperor's youngest son was simple and kind-hearted, about the same age as him. He had played with him when they were young, but later he was involved in the fight for the throne and is now buried.

Lu Ji frowned: "I don't remember this anymore."

Hearing Lu Ji say this, the Seventh Princess couldn't help but show disappointment: "General, how can you be so forgetful? I remember clearly that you were wearing a red and red brocade robe with a long sword on your waist, and you had a handsome servant by your side."

To help Lu Ji remember, she talked about the details of their first meeting that day: "After you paid the money for us, you and Brother Jiu came to comfort me."

Lu Ji didn't remember anything at all.

But the handsome servant mentioned by the princess made him think of the past.

When he was young, he loved to play and often took Qin Xiaoning out for a stroll. To avoid gossip, he would dress her up as a servant whenever he went out. Although the little girl disliked the servant's clothes and complained every time, she would still wear them obediently just to be able to go out with him.

When the little thing was little, he loved to stick to him.

Now she is a big person with a big heart, although she may have some bad thoughts occasionally, but she still likes to stick to him from time to time. Thinking that he came back in the middle of the night last night and she was still waiting for him foolishly and refused to go to bed first, Lu Ji's heart couldn't help but feel warm.

The Seventh Princess was reminiscing about the past, but Lu Ji was daydreaming about his little girl.

"General, are you listening to me?" Finally realizing Lu Ji's absent-mindedness, the Seventh Princess frowned and asked.

Lu Ji then returned to his seat from his trance. Apart from the words "he spent money to help people out of trouble during the Lantern Festival", he didn't hear a single word.

The Seventh Princess glanced at Lu Ji and asked him shyly, "General, do you remember the past when we first met?"

Lu Ji was still immersed in the romantic past with the little girl. Because he was in a good mood, his eyebrows and eyes were relaxed. Facing the Seventh Princess's questioning, he did not have a cold attitude, but said in a calm voice: "Princess, do you want to return the money I paid for you that time?"

Where is this?
I've never seen such a boring person.

After hearing what Lu Ji said, the Seventh Princess blushed with anger: "Could it be that in the general's heart, this princess is not worth the two taels of silver?"

Lu Ji said nothing, just looked at her calmly.

After a long while, he slowly spoke: "Since you don't want to return my money, then why are you stopping me, Princess?"

He looks like he won't eat anything.

The Seventh Princess could not help but feel annoyed, and she forced herself to control her temper and replied, "Nothing, I just want to say 'thank you' to the general."

"You're welcome."

Lu Ji replied seriously and turned away. The Seventh Princess stomped her feet in anger, but she still didn't want to miss this rare opportunity to meet him, so she chased after him again.

"General, don't you have anything to say to me?" she stopped the man and asked.

At this moment, Lu Ji had exhausted his patience, and his face darkened again: "If the princess continues to pester me like this, I will have to order someone to call the inner court to handle it."

Even the royal princess has to abide by the rules.

Meeting a man from outside the family is a big taboo. If it alarms the inner court, you will be punished.

Seeing Lu Ji getting angry, the Seventh Princess hurriedly said, "No, no, no, I just need to say a few more words to the general."

"If you have something to say, say it quickly." Lu Ji's face was gloomy.

The Seventh Princess was unable to speak for a moment. She glanced at Lu Ji's cold face, which showed that he had run out of patience. She could only ask directly with a thick face, "My Royal Brother wants to marry me to the General. Why doesn't the General want to do that?"

He thought that the failed arranged marriage was just a conspiracy of the saint, but he never imagined that the princess also had the idea of ​​marrying him.

A warrior like Lu Ji who had come out of the mountains of swords and seas of fire was different from those elegant and refined scholars. Once Lu Ji fell in love, he would stick with her until the end. He had no patience to deal with other beautiful women, and he didn't like being entangled by them.

For Lu Ji, the love of other women except his beloved is just a trouble.

After hearing the Seventh Princess' question, Lu Ji replied coldly: "I will only willingly marry the woman I like."

"I do not believe."

The Seventh Princess looked at Lu Ji and said, "The general is worried that marrying the Queen will affect your career."

Once a prince becomes the royal consort, his career will be restricted.

Lu Ji didn't like to get entangled, and sneered when he heard it: "What does the princess want?"

The Seventh Princess frowned, looking embarrassed as if she was about to cry: "I like the general. If the general is also interested in me, why don't you cancel the engagement with the daughter of the Wang family and marry me instead."

How can these women be so shameless?

Hearing this, Lu Ji said disdainfully: "Then Princess, go and discuss it with the daughter of the Wang family."
