Chapter 9 I refuse
On the other side of the dinner, Lu Xiner pulled Chen's sleeves. Didn't her mother promise to help her? Why is there still no movement at all so far?
"Mom, why don't you open your mouth?" Involunally, Lu Xiner urged. Seeing that so many women's admiring eyes were sitting on the Mowang's body, she couldn't help saying anxiously.
Lu Lincheng, sitting next to Chen, glanced at Chen's mother and daughter, with a warning in his eyes, which meant to let their mother and daughter be safe and have nothing to do.
"Xin'er," Chen patted the back of her daughter Lu Xiner's hand, indicating that she should not worry.
Suddenly, she turned her head, looked at the person she called her husband, and whispered, "Sir, this is a good time. At this moment, you can propose to the emperor about marrying Xin'er to King Mo. I believe that King Mo will not refuse in public."
Chen's humble voice attracted the attention of Prime Minister Lu Lincheng. He looked sideways at her and always felt that the woman beside him had changed. As for where it had changed, he really couldn't say why for a moment.
"Woman's opinion," Lu Lincheng whispered, and it is not difficult to hear some impatience in his words. "Who do you think King Mo is?"
"However, my lord, the emperor will not refute your face for the face of being the prime minister. Besides, if Xin'er can marry into the royal palace, it will be beneficial and harmless to you, isn't it? Chen knows that for a person like Lu Lincheng, you can't be tough with him. You can only "move with affection and reason" with him.
Besides, she has been a couple with Lu Lincheng for so many years, and she knows more or less about Lu Lincheng's ambition. Therefore, she believes that even if Lu Lincheng may not be willing to do anything, this will still have some effect on him.
Sure enough, Lu Lincheng calculated the pros and cons in his heart, and still felt that the advantages outweighed the disadvantages, so he decided to let go. In fact, he didn't know what evil he had done in his life. He actually had no son under his knees. He married five wives, but gave birth to five daughters for him.
Although these daughters are good-looking, they are always daughters. What's the big deal? In fact, he has always hoped to have a son to help him complete his "great career". Unfortunately, this is just a luxury.
Think about it, the analysis of the woman beside him is quite correct. What he said is just right. If it hadn't been for what she said to him tonight, he thought that he might have been deceived by this woman's harmless appearance forever. I didn't expect this woman's mind to be so meticulous that even he admired it.
At the beginning, he married this woman not because of his father's status in the court. Although he was not above ten thousand people, he was also a pivotal figure. That's why he married her this year.
In this way, with his father's ability, things can always be simpler. However, what she didn't expect was that her parents saw through their intentions at a glance and tried their best to prevent them from getting married. However, it was a good thing that this daughter was so determined that her parents had to agree to their marriage, which was who he is today. Speaking of which, I really want to thank his father-in-law and mother-in-law!
When his thoughts were here, he stopped. He was a little surprised what happened to him tonight. Why did he always recall the past? Is he really old? He can't help but think of the young past.
"I didn't expect that my wife's mind was so meticulous that she was even a little ashamed to be a husband!" Words mixed with sarcasm sounded in his ear. As soon as Chen heard it, his heart cooled down.
"Sir," Chen was interrupted by Lu Lincheng as soon as he wanted to refute.
"What you mean, your husband has understood and knows how to do it, so you don't have to say more," Lu Lincheng said.
As soon as he finished speaking, he got up, walked to Nangong He, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I have a merciless invitation. While tonight, everyone is present, I want to invite the emperor to complete it."
"Oh," Nangong He answered. What does this old guy want to do? Is it about his daughter? Thinking of this, he couldn't help taking a look at Nangong Mo.
Unexpectedly, Nangong Mo was also looking in his direction. The meaning in his eyes was obvious. You dare to promise to try it. He couldn't help laughing. He was worthy of being a mother's brother. The two brothers really wanted to go together. Even without Nangong Mo's warning, he would not agree. How could such a woman deserve his fifth brother?
"I don't know what Aiqing is thinking?" Nangong He pretended not to know and asked a faint rhetorical question.
Nangong He looked at the man kneeling on the ground. In fact, why didn't he know what he was thinking? I'm afraid that people with wise eyes can see this matter if he wants to be emperor. Moreover, in addition to his clear thoughts, even those tamperings and feet he does secretly, they know it like the palm of their hand. Does this old guy think he doesn't know anything? It's just that the time hasn't come yet. When the time is ripe, what else can he say?
Although he really doesn't want to be the emperor, even so, it's not the old guy's turn. This is the country of their Nangong family. Even if he doesn't want to, there are other people from the Nangong family. In any case, it's not his turn to be Lu!
"Weichen," Lu Lincheng paused for a moment, as if thinking about how to continue. He frowned and looked embarrassed that he didn't want to open his mouth but had to. This acting skills are really admirable.
Nangong He sneered in his heart. If he hadn't known Lu Lincheng's scheming, he would have been cheated by him. If he hadn't weighed the pros and cons below, how could he dare to ask for an order? This dilemma is really just the right performance.
"Weichen wants to ask the emperor to marry the little girl for King Mo," Lu Lincheng said in one breath, kowtowed, and then looked up at Nangong He.
As soon as Lu Lincheng finished speaking, the bottom suddenly boiled up and looked clear. At this dinner party, who didn't know that Lu Xiner was in love with King Mo?
However, if Lu Xiner is allowed to marry the King of Mo, he really doesn't deserve it. Although this Lu Xiner is indeed good-looking, if the appearance alone can win the heart of the King of Mo, then the daughters present can marry the King of Mo. What's more, Lu Xiner's reputation is really not very good in the capital.
Everyone shook their heads in the bottom of their hearts. This marriage is impossible at all.
What's more, even if the emperor is willing to do it, will the King of Mexico be willing to marry this woman?
Speaking of King Mo, everyone turned their eyes to Nangong Mo, the protagonist of this matter, but saw him sitting indifferently in his seat and drinking alone, looking like "it's none of his business", as if everything around him had nothing to do with him. This kind of drinking, even the so-called "thousands of cups not drunk", will be drunk! If you don't know that the person in front of you is the protagonist of this matter, anyone who sees it will think that he is an outsider. However, how can they guess what Nangong Mo thinks? He wants to get drunk. If he is drunk, he doesn't have to think about those annoying things.
At the banquet table, Lu Xiner stamped her feet in a hurry.
Seeing her daughter's anxious appearance, Chen couldn't help but reach out and pat her on the back, signaling her not to be too anxious.
"Oh, so this is what the Lu Qing family wants?"
"Yes, your Majesty, I would like to invite you to become a little girl." Lu Lincheng looked at Nan Gonghe and suddenly found that he couldn't see the young emperor in front of him. He was only 19 years old. Why was his mind so unpredictable? Involutedly, the hand hidden in his sleeve clenched into a fist. Presumably the emperor also knew that the little girl fell in love with him from the moment she met the King of Mo," Lu Lincheng continued to say while the iron was hot.
"This is really a little difficult for me to do. Why don't you ask Mo Wang himself?" As soon as Nangong He finished speaking, Nangong Mo felt that everyone's eyes were suddenly focused on him. He finally put down the wine glass in his hand and got up. His blue robe was still outstanding in the crowd.
He came forward, looked at Nangong He, and said lightly, "I refuse."
Nangong He looked at him with admiration. It's really good. If you are so ruthless, why don't you say it gently? At least she is a girl! However, Nangong He couldn't help but praise Nangong Mo. That's a good thing to say. It's also a warning to Lu Lincheng, the old guy. Can he do whatever he wants?
Under the bottom, Lu Xiner could no longer care about Chen's pull. She broke away from Chen and ran up crying. The bright tears were still hanging on her face, and her red eyes were indeed a beauty. But obviously, who is the King of Mo? How can he give up his original intention for Lu Xiner, who is crying?
"Why? I like you so much, why don't you agree? Even if I'm a concubine, I'm willing to be willing. Can you promise me?" Lu Xiner cried, sobbing, and said a sentence for a long time, intermittently. With such a weak appearance, I'm afraid that most men can't help feeling sorry when they see it, but who is Nangong Mo? Naturally, he is not included in most men. In the face of such a man, he was still expressionless and unmoved.
"If you like me, will I marry you?" A faint rebuttal instantly made Lu Xiner not know how to continue. However, she is not reconciled. How can she be reconciled? She likes him so much that she likes him so much that she even decides that he will not marry in her life. How can he be like this? How can he ignore her feelings like this?
She just cried and looked at Nangong Mo with tears. That expression was really aggrieved, but it still couldn't touch Nangong Mo's heart.
As if she had thought of something, she suddenly ran madly to Nangong Mo and tried to hug him, but she didn't expect Nangong Mo to turn around and let her jump and fall to the ground. Nangong Mo turned around and left mercilessly.
Behind him was Lu Xiner's crying, but he ignored it at all. So what if he likes her? Does she like it? Does he have to accept it? Besides, he is in a really bad mood tonight.
