Chapter 051
When King Mu was about to take the third move, Shuning quickly shrank his finger back.
But his face turned red. I really didn't expect that he would do the greasy movements so lustful.
"If the prince is fine, the young lady will surrender first."
King Mu raised his eyes and saw her slightly red face, which was beautiful and tender, more attractive than a cool fruit in the scorching heat.
"If you have something to do, you can wash your hands first and come back and talk about it."
Shu Ning was helpless.
She went to wash her hands, and Eunuch Wan brought over a copper basin and served King Mu to wipe his face and rinse his mouth in an orderly manner.
Soon, Shu Ning stood in front of King Mu again.
King Mu lay on the bed of the Arhat, his eyes facing Shu Ning, and asked lightly: "Last twelfth lunar month, I asked your father to wait for the news of his recovery. Why did you still return to Yangzhou and lose your promise to me?"
Shu Ning's heartbeat faster and immediately explained: "The prince did say this. The girl in the civilian thought that the prince just told me that you really don't hold a grudge against our family and there is no intention of arranging an official position for my father. So when the girl returned home, her father still wanted to go back to Yangzhou to retire, so the girl in the civilian family came back, and it was definitely not intentionally breaking the appointment with the prince."
King Mu snorted: "You have always been smart."
Shu Ning lowered her head and said, "Please don't blame me."
King Mu looked at her meaningfully: "It depends on how you behave."
Shuning:...
Here comes again, this old slut!
"The young girl doesn't understand the prince's meaning." Shu Ning pretended to be confused.
King Mu smiled, sat down slowly, stood up, and circled Shu Ning. He stopped in front of her and reached out to her fair face.
Shu Ning avoided it, King Mu paused his fingers slightly, then chased after him, gently pinching Shu Ning's chin.
Shu Ning was forced to raise her face.
King Mu looked at this well-behaved and lovely face, recalling the lonely pillow that had been unable to sleep for the past six months, a hint of warmth suddenly appeared in his cold eyes. While gently rubbing the corners of her lips with his thumb, he whispered: "I am not young and I don't have a warm room beside me. If you are tactful and serve me well, it is not impossible to carry my concubine after a long time."
Shu Ning just lowered her eyes softly. When he finished speaking, she asked, "If I don't want to, how will the prince punish me?"
King Mu didn't say anything, but his hands were full of strength.
Shuning's chin hurt a little, and she pursed her lips tightly. She didn't want to fight, and she always had to resist the order. If King Mu really put the sword against her neck in the end, Shuning felt that she would definitely surrender without any nerve, save her life first and then think of other ways. But before King Mu really used the sword, Shuning wanted to persevere.
Not everyone is born brave. Under this silent and unpredictable confrontation, Shu Ning's body began to tremble slightly.
Although she didn't cry, there was already fog in her clear eyes. King Mu thought, maybe the next moment, her tears would fall.
He let go of the clamping on her.
Shu Ning immediately turned around.
King Mu sat back on the Arhat's bed with a calm face, and his right hand clenched from clenching his fist to let go and then clenched his fist. He repeated it many times, and his cold eyes kept staring at her.
Finally, she raised her hand and quickly wiped her face.
"Just that unwilling?" King Mu said almost gritted his teeth, "When I was in a downturn, you didn't want to marry me as a wife. Now I am the prince. I promise you a concubine. Isn't it worthy of you?"
Shu Ning looked out the window, the sun shining brightly, and you could feel the brilliance of the sun through the window paper.
After his emotions were completely calmed down, Shu Ning whispered: "The prince was in a downturn and despised the prince and begged his father to repent the marriage. The prince resented me for many years. I knew that I was ashamed of the prince. The prince tortured my family and asked me to sacrifice my innocence. I and my family did it one by one, and finally eliminated the prince's anger. Now the prince is noble, and I am just an ordinary woman. The prince comes to tease me again and humiliate me with the title of concubines. What is the difference between the Song family's repentance in the past?"
"Hurt? As your current identity, being a concubine is still humiliating you?" King Mu said as if he had heard some joke, his long eyelashes drooped, and his slender fingers turned the ring on his thumb.
Shu Ning turned around and looked at him and said, "Although I am young, I have experienced the warmth and coldness of the world. Now I don't seek glory and wealth, I just want to open a small shop to be self-reliant, I just want to meet a man who treats me sincerely. I want to marry and be a wife, but the prince wants me to be a concubine. What is this not humiliation?"
King Mu did not look up, but continued to turn his finger and continued to say sarcastic words: "You have lost your innocence, which man will treat you sincerely? Even if someone asks for marriage, it is all about your beauty or money. Over time, you will still abandon you like a piece of clothing."
Shu Ning smiled and said, "I want to marry someone who treats me sincerely. It is best to meet me. If I don't meet me, I would rather live alone than marry me. If I don't meet me for a while, I will continue to wait. When I become an old woman, I can't get it. That means I should live alone in this life and there is nothing to complain about."
King Mu sneered.
Shuning didn't care at all.
The ice in the ice cauldron melted slowly, emitting a hint of coolness. Just as Shu Ning stood sore, King Mu, who had been silent for too long, suddenly spoke again and mentioned a person who was out of touch with him: "That Chu Ling has a good appearance. She tossed and turned because she couldn't ask for anything from you. She is considered a lovely man. Why don't you marry him?"
Shu Ning could not hide his dislike, and then pointed at him a little bit and said, "He looks good, but he is looking for my appearance. He is really a love-in-law. When he thinks about my situation every word and deed, he says those inappropriate words of longing in front of so many people, either wanting to kill me or want me to be forced to marry him. How can he take me seriously?"
King Mu raised his eyebrows: "You have quite high requirements."
Shu Ning lowered her head, clenched her fingers and said, "A lifetime is so long, of course I have to pick it carefully and not marry it casually."
"According to your choice, you can only be an old girl."
"Even if you are an old woman and feel comfortable alone, it is better than becoming an old woman and serving an old man."
King Mu:...
Why does this sentence sound a little harsh?
He looked at Shu Ning coldly.
Shu Ning knew it was impulsive and hurriedly knelt down: "Prince, don't misunderstand me, I'm not pointing to you."
King Mu only felt it was even more harsh.
"Get out."
Shu Ning felt relieved, bowed, turned around and left.
King Mu stared at her slender back and made a grip.
King Mu lived in Yangzhou for a month. Apart from asking his ex-fiancee to cook fried chicken for him once, he never had any involvement with Miss Song or the Song family. Gradually, the people of Yangzhou believed that the grudges of the two families had disappeared, so the matchmaker came to the door again and asked Miss Song, who was prosperous for men of all kinds.
Shuning was not in a hurry to go on a blind date, but King Mu was staring at Yangzhou City. In order to test his intentions and increase the probability of finding a sincere courtier as soon as possible, Shuning gave in and began to ask Du Shi to screen her blind date partner. As long as her appearance and family background passed Du Shi's primary election, Shuning agreed to meet.
The first blind date was in a temple. The other party was a poor scholar. Although his family was poor, he was a fair-looking person and had a dull personality. He had not yet discovered other major problems. Just when Shu Ning was about to accompany the scholar to visit the temple while inducing the scholar to talk more about his family, His Highness Mu, dressed in black, appeared and looked at Shu Ning and the scholar several times. The scholar was sweating coldly when he saw him. He left gently as if he was Tathagata.
As soon as King Mu left, the scholar found a bad excuse and ran away.
The second blind date was on a beautiful lake outside Yangzhou City. The man was a young man who ran a small shop. Although the shop was not as profitable as Shu Ning's fried chicken shop, the young man was handsome and had a funny conversation. He neither cared about Shu Ning's past nor inquire about how much money Shu Ning could make every day. Shu Ning had a good impression of him, but as he was chatting, a hole suddenly became poked at the bottom of the boat and got into the water.
At the moment of crisis, the boat from Xiaoluzi passed by and kindly picked Shu Ning up. As for the young man who runs a small shop, he flew in the lake for a while because he was not good at water, and was finally dragged to the shore by the boatman.
"What does the prince mean?" Shu Ning asked Xiao Luzi angrily.
Xiaoluzi pretended to be stupid: "The family is just passing by and I don't understand what the girl is talking about."
Shu Ning believes in him!
Her two blind dates soon spread throughout Yangzhou City. At this time, everyone finally understood that His Highness Mu did not allow Miss Song to get married! But it is unknown whether King Mu took action because of hatred or something else.
"What should we do? Do we really want to live alone to die in our lives?"
A daughter who could make money by flowers and jade could have chosen a husband of Ruyi, but was mixed up by King Mu, and could not find a man who dared to marry a daughter in Yangzhou City. Du cried again and cried.
Lord Song touched his beard and said with a heavy expression: "There is a source of injustice and a debt is a master. I gave up the marriage back then. I went to see the prince and asked him what he wanted."
When Shu Ning heard this, how dare she let Lord Song go? What if Lord Song knows that King Mu no longer hates the Song family, wants to restore his official position, and wants to take her as a concubine, what should I do if Lord Song turns against him at the last minute?
"I'll go. I've dealt with the prince the most times. Maybe I can convince the prince." Shu Ning held the veil and pretended to wipe his tears.
When she cried, the clouds on the heads of the Song family became thicker.
Shu Ning went back to the house and asked Jin'er to dress her up. The more beautiful and grand the dress, the better.
When Jin'er was dressing up, Shu Ning also thought of a countermeasure. It is still unknown how useful it can be, and it is better than doing nothing.
After the carriage left the Song family, Shu Ning opened a few curtains.
There are many rivers in Yangzhou City. Not long after the carriage walked, a river appeared outside a street next to it.
Shuning asked Uncle Li to park the car.
"Is there anything wrong with a girl?" Uncle Li parked the car and turned around and asked.
Shu Ning pointed to a clump of roses by the river and said, "The flowers are blooming very well, I'll pick one."
After saying that, Shu Ning jumped out of the carriage and asked Uncle Li to wait here. She took Jin'er to the river.
The roses bloomed by the bridge, and some flowers had been broken. Shu Ning was not here to break flowers, so she secretly observed the river.
The river water is more than three meters wide, and a black-sailed boat sailed slowly in the distance. Shu Ning picked up a small stone and threw it down. It sounded very deep.
There are many shops on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, and there are endless people.
Shu Ning walked to the middle of the bridge, pointed to Jin'er in the distance and said, "What is there?"
Jin'er looked over there in confusion.
Shu Ning took the opportunity to climb over the stone bridge guardrail and pierced it in the posture of a diving athlete. With a plop, only a small splash of water was splashed.
