Upon hearing this, the First Prince immediately exclaimed with a look of realization: “Oh, so it’s you.”
In reality, however, the First Prince had absolutely no recollection of it.
But even if he didn’t remember, it didn’t matter; he might not remember, but the other person did.
At this moment, Mei’er continued softly, “The moment Mei’er saw the First Prince, I knew you were a true hero. Mei’er knows I am unworthy of you, but I do not want to have any regrets. That is why I have been so abrupt today, expressing my feelings to you. I hope the First Prince will forgive me.”
After saying this, Mei’er’s eyes reddened slightly, and she looked as if she was about to cry. But, from the perspective of the people outside the pavilion, she was just lowering her head.
Many people were watching them. Although Suo Tu desperately wanted to immediately embrace her and comfort her, he dared not make a move.
So he could only say, “Don’t cry, I already know your feelings. If you’re willing, before I leave, I’ll mention to the Emperor of Great Zhou that I’ll take you back to the borderlands. How about that?”
Upon hearing this, Mei’er looked at him with delighted surprise: “Really?”
“Of course, it’s true!” Suo Tu said with certainty, while also feeling a little smug.
The women of the Great Zhou really did like a man like him!
At this moment, Mei’er continued in a low voice, “Thank you, Your Highness! By the way, I have something important to tell you. I will come to see you again at the banquet, but please remember not to mention this to anyone. Otherwise, if anyone finds out, my life will be in danger.”
Having said this, Mei’er looked at Suo Tu pitifully.
Suo Tu felt a surge of heat under her gaze, then quickly nodded. “Don’t worry, this Prince knows his limits.”
“Then Mei’er will take her leave.” With that, she picked up the tray from the table and left respectfully.
As soon as she left, a palace maid approached and asked, “Mei’er, what did you say to that barbarian prince just now?”
Hearing this, Mei’er smiled slightly and said, “The First Prince only asked me some minor questions, nothing more. Alright, everyone, hurry up and get busy. There can’t be any mistakes today.”
With that, Mei’er gracefully departed with the tray.
She was determined to complete the task assigned by the Ninth Princess, no matter what.
After Mei’er left, Suo Er asked, “Eldest Brother, what did she say to you? You’re taking a palace maid back to the borderlands?”
Hearing this, Suo Tu said with a hint of smugness, “What else could she say? She came to express her affection for me. Second Brother, it looks like we can take a lot of women back this time!”
Suo Er frowned slightly, but he was also somewhat tempted.
The women of Great Zhou were far more delicate and beautiful than the women of his northern frontier, who had endured the wind and sun of the borderlands.
…
Soon afterward, the Emperor and Empress arrived. After some pleasantries, the Ninth Princess’s birthday banquet officially began.
Gradually, the sky darkened.
Suo Tu was still drinking when Mei’er approached him with a pot of wine, giving him a tender, affectionate look.
Seeing her, Suo Tu felt a surge of heat again. This Mei’er, indeed, lived up to her name; one look from her made him want to pounce on her right then and there.
After pouring Suo Tu a cup of wine, Mei’er left.
