Chapter 110: One of the two choices of the prince
[Sorry, I'm late, it's finally better.]
Ximen Bingying hesitated in the house for two days and finally embarked on the road to meet Huangfu Zhenglong in Dongqing Palace. What should come is to come, and it is useless for her to avoid it. She can only waste a month's time.
As always, there is no need to pass it on. At this moment, she vaguely feels that Huangfu Zhenglong is special to herself. Thinking about it carefully, it seems that Huangfu Zhenglong has never been harsh on her. She can come and go freely in the palace, even his bedroom. She heard that he paid great attention to privacy and didn't like anyone to break into Dongqing Palace without his order.
She went straight into the inner hall of Dongqing Palace. At a glance, she saw that Huangfu Zhenglong was placing wine and dishes on the round table in front of the big bed and drinking by himself. She coughed softly and walked slowly, a little unnatural under his gaze. Depressed, she would come and beg him to marry her...
But if you don't reach a consensus with him, what should Ruoxi do? The eldest brother said that now we have to do what Jin Ji said, otherwise I don't know how many people will be implicated. I hate it, but I can't beat him. The man doesn't seem to be affected by beauty. He is really calm. Maybe he is a disaster beauty himself.
"Sit down. It seems that my master doesn't greet me whether to sit or not." Huangfu Zhenglong took another glass, filled her with wine, and pushed it to the front where she would sit.
Ximen Bingying tried her best to calm herself down, sat in front of the wine glass and teased, "Is there any heart-eating fans in this wine?" With that, she really picked up the glass and smelled it. After confirming that nothing else was added, she took a sip.
Huangfu Zhenglong was not angry and said lightly, "I will never do that cheating thing to you. If you fall in love with me, you may only be willing."
I don't know... Is cheating a dog?
"His Royal Highness is open and aboveboard, and naturally he will not act with that little man." Ximen Bingying praised that she still likes to call him 'His Royal Highness', as if this can invisibly widen their distance and make her not feel threatened.
She even doubted whether she had revealed any ambiguity when she had been with Leng Rong before, which made Leng Rong gradually dominate her heart. Now, she pays great attention and repeatedly emphasizes to the men around her that she can't fall in love with him.
"What's the matter with you coming to me today? Is it that I have an idea about what I asked you to investigate? Huangfu Zhenglong had a little smile on his eyebrows, or because she praised him sincerely. But then, he asked knowingly.
"Oh...this..." Ximen Bingying began to feel embarrassed. If she told him that she could not only subdue the other party, but also because Ruoxi was arrested and subdued by the other party, would he be furious? However, she still has to tell the truth. She didn't believe Liu Yuanchen and Ye Bing and didn't report to Huangfu Zhenglong!
She hesitated for a while, and finally made up her mind to finish the matter quickly: "The man's name Jin Ji has been trained into a demonic skill. He arrested Ruoxi and forced me to obey his order, and now the order is for His Royal Highness to marry me as the crown princess!" Then she gasped, dried the wine in front of her, and bowed her head to wait for a lesson.
Huangfu Zhenglong watched her long eyelashes tremble in the air, and inexplicably the heartstrings also trembled. After calming down, he snorted coldly, "So, Liu Yuanchen and Ye Bing are also rice buckets?"
Ximen Bingying's face suddenly turned red, and he used the word 'ye', so it was not only Liu Yuanchen and Ye Bing, but she, she was also a rice bucket... The faint anger rose again. She had no obligation to help him find out the origin of Jin Ji. Why scolded her as a rice bucket? However, Liu Yuanchen and Ye Bing really didn't help at all. They are still coming to Fenglou to eat and drink for free.
"Well, Ye Bing said that Liu Yuanchen was secretly investigating the matter of Jin Ji. Besides, even you are not Jin Ji's opponent, let alone them. Going out is to cause you trouble and get in the way. Huangfu Zhenglong picked up the wine jug and then brewed the wine for her.
"Since you know, ask me..." She said, how could Liu Yuanchen and Ye Bing not tell him? However, when she heard that it was Ye Bing who came to report, she couldn't help but feel depressed. Ye Bing completely ignored the past!
By the way, what's the relationship between her and Ye Bing? Is it because of that kiss that doesn't count at all? She scolded herself again.
"I found that after you met Jin Ji this time, your expression was much more vivid, like Bing Ying I knew when I was a child." Huangfu Zhenglong keenly found her difference, and his heart was even more unhappy, because the person who changed her was not him.
"Do you have it?" Ximen Bingying touched her face and really didn't know where his theory came from. Then, she suddenly realized, "I know what you're talking about. I get angry easily, right? However, if His Royal Highness had seen Jin Ji, he would be as angry as I am. He is not only arrogant, but also bullies the weak with his martial arts skills, and likes to arrest the people around me to threaten me. His Royal Highness said - are you angry?"
Huangfu Zhenglong glanced at her and pointed to the wine in front of her: "If there is nothing else to do, drink with me." It's better to hate someone than to like someone. She hated him for so long and still didn't fall in love with him, so he didn't worry about it.
Ximen Bingying slandered: There is still something to do... But she is not afraid that he will take advantage of people's danger. He should not be able to do such a thing. So she picked up the glass and began to touch the glass with Huangfu Zhenglong, one cup after another.
She is also very drunk. Probably people with a little martial arts will automatically resist alcohol. However, after eight or nine cups, her body was faintly hot, and it seemed that the wine was still full. She threw the glass back and muttered, "Okay, no more drinks. I have something else to tell you." Now he seems to have the courage to talk about it when his head is hot. Let's see if his reaction is also good.
"Hmm?" Huangfu Zhenglong looked at her with a smile. It turned out that she drank wine with him in order to strengthen her courage. He didn't realize that she would still be shy in front of him. Maybe... she still has some feelings for him? According to his experience, if a woman is shy in front of a man, she still has some other ideas about the man.
Ximen Bingying said with a serious look, "Your Highness, do you want to check Jin Ji?" Want to catch him, right? But his martial arts skills are so high and his men have so many minions. The only thing we can do is to stabilize him first, obey his orders, and then plan to see if there is any other way to subdue him.
"Good, it's a good way." Huangfu Zhenglong nodded: "So, what should we do next?"
Ximen Bingying looked at him staring at her with a slight drunkenness. Suddenly, she couldn't fully say the lines she had already thought of, so she could only say hesitantly, "Listen, listen to him...marry, marry..."
"Hmm?" Huangfu Zhenglong leaned closer to see if the shame in her eyes appeared because she could not resist his charm.
"Marry me!" Ximen Bingying quickly patted his head back and didn't allow him to get too close to herself. This atmosphere is easy to attract people to commit crimes. She admitted that she was a woman. Even if she was cheated and hurt by her cold face, she could not change her difficulty in getting along with them in this ambiguous atmosphere.
Huangfu Zhenglong suppressed his smile, stroked the patted forehead and sighed, "So you want me to give up the whole harem in the future?"
Ah? What?" Ximen Bingying did not react at this time, although she was not drunk to the point of losing her mind.
Huangfu Zhenglong looked sad: "You want me to marry you, but if you follow me, I will definitely not want you to be bullied by other women. So, after I ascend the throne, I will only have you as a queen. Don't you want me to give up three thousand beauties for you alone?
This... Ximen Bingying was stunned. She didn't want him to give up the harem. What she meant...
She quickly explained, "Your Highness, I think Your Highness misunderstood me. I mean, in order to stabilize Jin Ji, His Royal Highness can pretend to marry me as the crown princess. After thinking of a way to subdue Jin Ji, His Royal Highness announces that we pretend to be married in order to catch evil thieves, isn't it okay?
Huangfu Zhenglong laughed suddenly, and the laughter became colder and colder, until Ximen Bingying was at a loss.
Then, he said coldly, "Do you think this prince is a civilian peddler who can deceive the world at will? After marrying the crown princess, unless you die, you will always be the crown princess, the woman of the crown prince! You still want me to play with you to deceive people all over the world. You are really naive!"
"I..." Ximen Bingying was scolded by him. Of course, she also thought that this plan was not workable, but... She can't really marry him as a crown princess, can she? This marriage can only be fake, absolutely not true...
"I wasted my sincerity, thinking that if you are willing to stay with me for a long time, I will no longer spoil other women, but you are so sincere to me, which really hurts me!" Huangfu stood up, brushed his sleeves vigorously and said, "Either, I will really become the woman of the prince; or I will find a way to deal with Jin Ji by myself!" Choose one of the two! Go back and think about it and tell me when you think about it. One month, there is plenty of time.
"I..." Ximen Bingying also stood up and saw that he really turned around and ignored her, so she had to say, "I'm leaving." She sighed in her heart, and it seemed that she really wanted to find another way to save Ruoxi. Huangfu Zhenglong did not cooperate, and he did have difficulties, and she could not force others.
Huangfu Zhenglong sat down again long after she left and planned to meet his father later. As for Yinger... Let her worry about herself for a few days first.
