Chapter 1512: Her Highness the Princess (62)

Yun Buxiu thought of Lin Yuexiang, and naturally, Lü Qing came to mind as well.

In an instant, he guessed that Lü Qing would attend the poetry gathering. Shaking his head with a smile, he finally understood why Her Highness was in such high spirits.

So that was the reason.

He was rather curious to see what expression Lü Qing would have upon meeting Lin Yuexiang.

Of course, he believed that even if the current Lin Yuexiang stood right before him, Lü Qing would never recognize her.

By then, Tang Guo and her party had already arrived at the poetry gathering.

She and Yun Buxiu sat in a pavilion, and no one dared disturb them casually.

However, the host of the gathering was so flattered that Tang Guo had actually come that he felt honored beyond measure. As long as she sat there, even doing nothing, it would be the greatest glory of his life.

After all, she was the fairy of his dreams.

Yun Buxiu noticed that throughout the gathering, the scholars' eyes would unconsciously drift toward his princess.

Even though they only dared steal cautious glances, it still made him somewhat displeased.

Sure enough, Her Highness was simply too captivating. No one could help but be drawn to her.

Fortunately, she had no interest in these scholars.

Thinking of that, Yun Buxiu suddenly felt quite fortunate.

Compared to these scholars, who could only admire her from afar and dream about her, he was her neighbor. More importantly, Her Highness had personally told him that wherever she went in the future, she was willing to take him along, allowing them to travel the world together and appreciate its beautiful scenery.

And so, Yun Buxiu became happy again. Looking at those scholars, his eyes even held a trace of disdain.

The System noticed Yun Buxiu's expression and nearly burst out laughing.

【Host, is this fellow really so easy to satisfy now?】

“Without comparison, there is no harm. I've treated him rather well. Before there was something to compare with, how would he have known?”

The System thought that was true.

The host truly treated Yun Buxiu quite well.

Just look at how she treated Lü Qing, and one would understand how ruthless this woman could be.

Not only would she destroy Lü Qing's status and everything he valued, she would crush him from the depths of his heart, shattering his confidence before finally taking his life.

Apart from Her Highness the Grand Princess, Lin Yuexiang was undoubtedly the most dazzling figure present today.

Everyone watched as a woman dressed in a plain-colored gown walked toward them. Every movement she made carried an air of grace and authority utterly unlike that of ordinary women.

Although she wore only light makeup and her hair was simply half-pinned with a single hairpin while the rest cascaded down her back, her hairstyle and clothing were exceedingly simple.

Yet no one could overlook her.

Without excessive adornments, she outshone all the women at the gathering who had spent so much effort dressing themselves.

Lin Yuexiang first came over to Tang Guo and greeted her calmly before returning to the crowd and chatting pleasantly with everyone.

Her words flowed naturally. Whether discussing elegant subjects or common ones, she handled them effortlessly.

The scholars dared not harbor any thoughts about Her Highness the Grand Princess.

But what about Lady Lin?

After interacting with Lin Yuexiang, the scholars could only shake their heads helplessly.

They dared not dream of her either.

How could these two women be so exceptional and formidable?

Moreover, Lin Yuexiang was an official of the court. Who would dare marry her? Even if someone did, they'd probably have to worship her like an ancestor.

But even if they wanted to marry her, would she be willing?

Who among them could possibly catch her eye?

By the time Tang Xi arrived, very few gazes remained on her.

She had previously encountered Lin Yuexiang by chance once before.

Resentment stirred in her heart.

It was one thing to be unable to compare with her imperial elder sister, but now she couldn't even compare to a mere Lin Yuexiang.

She wanted to make things difficult for Lin Yuexiang, but the woman was a court official.
