Princess Too Young, Prince Too Old

Mu Nanzhi warmed herself by holding the teacup and glared at Lu Zhishan with great grievance . “It’s my birthday today . In order to avoid attention, I have visited about eight mansions from noon . Now I can set my mind at ease and come here to have meals with you . It never occurs to me that you will drive me away instead of welcoming me!”

Hearing her words made Lu Zhishan feel so sorry and he immediately told Song Fu to prepare several more dishes and laid out the dishes for her . “It is all my fault . It’s all because of me that make you hang out for such a long time . ”

“Of course . ” Mu Nanzhi turned her head and was not intended to accept his apology .

“Come on . Have some eggplant boxes . You like them best, aren’t you?” Lu Zhishan picked a piece of eggplant boxes for Mu Nanzhi with a smile on his face .

“All right . ” Mu Nanzhi pouted her mouth but finally turned her head back . As she solved all those eggplant boxes, she kept speaking, lips covered with oil, “Thanks to your capable cook, otherwise I will never talk with you in the following days . ”

“I never know that my cook is much more important than me myself in your heart . ” Lu Zhishan laughed and then poured a cup of wine, asking, “Are you happy to have your adult ceremony in the palace?”

“No, actually . Jixiang woke me up when it was still dark outside . I was so sleepy at that time and was forced to get dressed . Then I was sent to the palace . I had never thought that I would be dressed again! What’s worse, it was empress dowager’s personal maid who served me so I had to sit and stand straight all day long! I firmly believed that I couldn’t be more tired . ” Mu Nanzhi complained and then proudly showed her bracelet to Lu Zhishan . “Look, this is my birthday gift . Empress gave it to me . It is make of gold and jade . Though it is not so rare, the carving on it is pretty special because it’s a picture of swan goose flying towards the south, which also describes my name . ”

“Empress went to Shoukang Palace, didn’t she?” Lu Zhishan took a sip of wine and asked .

“How could empress be able to get out of bed now? She just told her son, the fourth prince, to bring the gift for her . The fourth prince was really a good person . He was so gentle and even silently moved the plate of fragrant honey soaked lotus roots towards me seeing that I loved eating it during lunch time . ” Recalling the scene Mu Nanzhi slowly blushed and uttered, “I’m really embarra.s.sed about it . ”

Lu Zhishan quietly looked at the red cheeks of the young girl and felt a bit unpleasant . He then poured a cup of wine for himself and asked, “Do you still want to eat some honey soaked lotus roots? I can tell the cook to make some for you . ”

Mu Nanzhi quickly shook her head and refused . “No . Though it’s sweet and soft, I have eaten quite enough and even feel a bit sick of it . I’m afraid that I won’t touch it for a year . ”

Delight appeared on Lu Zhishan’s face again when he heard those words . He then poured a small bowl of lotus leaves soup for her and said, “This will help you feel better . ”

“I will have it when I finish the milk tea,” replied Mu Nanzhi, nodding her head .

Lu Zhishan raised his eyebrows and smiled, “Didn’t you complain that my milk tea is not good enough last time?”

“How could you be so vindictive, cousin?” Mu Nanzhi twitched his mouth and glared at Lu Zhishan angrily, “A gentle man will not do that!”

Lu Zhishan burst into laughter and questioned in turn, “What do you think a gentle man should be?”
