Chapter 31 Dancing Together
The silver moon is in the sky, and the lights are brightly lit in the Western Palace, and classical and gorgeous music floats in the palace.
"Princess Susan, why did you come here?" A woman dressed in a maid ran to Lotus Lake in the harem and said to the girl squatting by the lake with breathlessness.
Susan, who was sitting by the lake in a daze, looked up at the maid and asked lightly: "Did the father ask you to come?"
The maid nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, His Majesty King Vito is asking you to go back."
Susan frowned and said angrily: "Hmph, tell him, I won't go back anymore. What about celebrating a dance party is really annoying!"
"Don't do this, princess," said the maid with some anxiety. "This dance King Vito invited almost all the top nobles in the western part of Caiyun Kingdom, among which there are many of the most outstanding men of the younger generation of our country. They all came to see the princess' face. At least you can show your face at the dance."
"Hmph, I don't know what my father thinks? Go and tell my father, I don't even look down on those noble men!" Susan said willfully.
"But..." The maid looked embarrassed.
Susan stood up and said viciously: "If you 'but', I will kick you into the lake!"
The maid was shocked when she heard this and hurriedly said, "I dare not, I will report to His Majesty Vito now." After that, the maid hurriedly said back.
The maid knew Princess Susan's temper. She didn't just say anything. If she really refused to leave, she would really kick herself into the lake.
After driving away the annoying maid, Susan sat on the grass by the lake again, staring blankly at the bright moon in the sky. The silver-white moonlight fell on her delicate and beautiful face, looking a little cold.
"Oh, so what if I become a princess? I can still play around when I am not a princess. Now I have a higher status than before, but I have lost my freedom and can't even leave a palace. It seems that my only value now is to give birth to a little prince." Susan sighed softly, feeling depressed and said angrily: "I really want to have an heir so much, why don't my father give birth to one more?"
Just as Susan was talking to herself, the sound of water suddenly sounded on the lake. Then she saw a man in gorgeous clothes coming from the water, jumping like a light geek.
The man also found Susan squatting by the lake, and the two looked at each other at that moment.
The man's face looked a little surprised, but his steps did not stop at all. He jumped over the palace wall and floated towards the brightly lit place.
Hey, who is he? Susan looked suspicious. She looked like he was going to the dance party. Could it be that he was also the one who went to the dance party, or was he a thief who came to the palace to steal things?
He seemed quite handsome. When Susan thought of the scene when he looked at each other before, her heart beat faster.
Humph, I'd better go to the dance party to see it. If I find that you are a bad person, I will never let you go! Susan made a decision in her heart and rushed to the venue of the palace dance party.
At this time, in the palace fountain garden, hundreds of nobles from all over the country gathered here. Under the leisurely and gorgeous music, some of them were dancing social dances indulgently, while others were talking happily. Obviously, everyone was in a good mood.
Vito was in a good mood, but just received a war report from the front line, which mentioned that the troops stationed near Ping'an Town were wiped out, and the supply line of the army advancing east was cut off by the 50,000 cavalrymen. Vito's face was a little bad now.
"Hmph, I didn't expect that they would be forced to bite the ball back if they were too impatient." Vito snorted coldly.
Butz, who was standing by, said disrespectfully: "It's just a counterattack before death. At most, it will delay their death period for a period of time. After we stabilize our position, their final outcome will still be destruction."
At this moment, Princess Susan came over, she saluted Vito and said softly: "Father, I'm back."
Vito narrowed his eyes and said a little dissatisfied: "So you still have the heart to come back. I thought I could not see your shadow tonight. Hurry up and see whoever you see, and then talk to Youfa."
"Yes, Father." Susan agreed obediently, then returned to the crowd and looked around.
Susan's appearance was already very beautiful, and now she was the age to marry again. As soon as she arrived at the dance, she became a focus. Many young noble men began to move when they saw her alone at this time.
"Dear Princess, I am Fini of the Angeles family. I wonder if I am lucky enough to dance with you?" A handsome man appeared in front of Susan and asked with anticipation.
Susan glanced at him, then stopped looking at him, but just replied coldly: "Get out."
Susan's words made Fini stand in a daze. Seeing that he had no reaction, Susan pushed him away and continued to search. Liu Fini was alone in the wind.
Afterwards, several men invited me, but they all ended like Fini. The way of refusing was really embarrassing. The other young noble men who saw this scene all felt deterred by this stingy princess.
"Ah, I finally found you!" Seeing the man leaning against the table drinking a glass of red wine, a smile appeared on Susan's face and blurted out.
The man with an elegant expression, like a handsome noble man, looked at Susan, raised his glass and smiled, "What a coincidence."
"So sir, I invite you to dance with me." Susan stretched out her little white jade hand and placed it in front of the man, and said with a smile.
Even though Princess Susan kept people thousands of miles away, there were still many unyielding young noble men watching her. At this time, when she saw Princess Susan actually invited a man to dance, she couldn't help but stand there.
The man felt the hostile and jealous gaze around him and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Because of the etiquette of the dance party, he could not refuse the invitation. Thinking of this, the man gentlemanly held the tenderness in front of him and danced with Susan to tango.
Susan's slender waist was gently held by the man, and a small hand was even held. Because she was too close to the man, she even felt the temperature coming from the man.
For some reason, Susan's dance steps became a little messy, but the man could always cooperate with her just right.
"Why are you there?" Susan was a little nervous, but she still didn't forget her purpose. After a while, she asked the man in front of her.
The man naturally knew where Susan was referring to the "where".
"Well, because this dance party is too boring, I'll go there for some breathing." The man replied.
"Can you run so far when you breathe?" Susan obviously disbelief and looked at the man with some doubt.
"You can run so far, why can't I?" the man asked with some amusement.
"I am a princess, this is my home. I can't go anywhere, it's different!" Susan retorted.
The man smiled and said, "This is also my home. The sky is the quilt and the earth is the bed. This heaven is my home. Therefore, the world is so big that you can't control where I want to go. I just want to like it."
"Hey, you are so funny." Susan was not angry when she heard Qing Luo's words, and the smile on her face seemed to be getting stronger.
"What's your name?" Susan asked curiously.
The man's eyes rolled and then replied, "Well, my name is Gardro, I'm from a little nobleman. The princess probably never heard of my name."
"Oh, Gardro." Susan didn't mind whether he came from a small noble or a big noble. Susan always regarded identity as something.
At this time, Susan looked at the gentle and elegant man in front of her, just hoping that time would pass slowly so that the dance could be danced longer.hf();
