[184] Mu Bei Showdown

Even so, it actually has no effect. The closer the time is, the more restless and uneasy it becomes.

Even if his own intention is still firmly ignored, the thoughts deep in his heart are really so easy to control. Why should he be in the current state? If nothing else, just thinking of Xiaocao's hopeless waiting,

It would suffocate him.

Moreover, he did not appear here for the sake of the Liang family. What happened to them had nothing to do with him. He was actually here just to "keep an appointment" - he originally avoided the place where Huang Huangcheng lived, which was more than a hundred miles away from the imperial city.

The appointment was for the afternoon the day after tomorrow. There was no specific time, so he could leave again tomorrow. However, he was anxious and anxious, and couldn't settle down, so he simply set off early - whether he would see Xiaocao or not was one thing. Going to the place where they once lived

The place is necessary.

There, he held the best memories of his twenty-one years.

Even if Xuan'er went there and heard that it was impossible for her to walk alone, he was still worried. This kind of worry was not so strong when Xiaocao was alone before. It seems that the higher the class, the higher the risk factor.

.

Jin Wenjie found that Prince Wei was distracted again. There was only one person who could make him like this. Tsk!

Wei Tingyu looked back at Jin Wenjie, "Go back."

Jin Wenjie raised his eyebrows, "Does this mean you won't go back?"

"I have some personal matters to deal with. I have been away for the past three days."

Of course, since we are preparing to go out, we must arrange things properly. Besides, there has been nothing much going on recently.

Jin Wenjie was very curious and wanted to gossip, but Wei Tingyu didn't give him a chance at all.

Jin Wenjie wanted to shamelessly continue to follow Prince Wei, but he needed to continue guarding the emperor's door tomorrow. He had no choice but to droop his head and return to the imperial city pathetically, looking back every step of the way. He really looked like a quilted bird.

A large dog abandoned by its owner.

Wei Tingyu was unmoved and didn't even take a second look at Wen Xin driving the carriage towards their predetermined goal.

Because there was enough time and the speed was neither too fast nor too slow, Wei Tingyu sat quietly in the carriage, not knowing where his mind wandered.

Of course, Wen Xin will not be the only one accompanying this trip. After all, this trip will last for at least two or three days. If only Wen Xin is allowed to follow him, others will not agree, but it will attract attention.

Those who left separately, except for a few two or three people who followed nearby, others took a step ahead.

In Xiaocao's plan, she will travel only tomorrow, which is a little more urgent, but it is more than enough time. Her travel plan is also about three days, so today, she needs to take turns with all her patients.

Read it again.

It's all normal stuff, no surprises.

However, this idea did not last long. When he was at Dingbei County Prince's Mansion, he met Princess Changning first. It was because Princess Changning took the initiative to go out to greet her, and looked at Xiaocao with a somewhat strange look in her eyes.

Bright and shiny.

"Princess, what's going on?" Xiaocao asked slightly confused.

But after I asked this question, I felt a little out of control. If I said there were no accidents, I felt like I was slapping myself in the face.

"Sister Xuan, are you going to marry into the Dingbei County Prince's Palace and be my sister-in-law?" Princess Changning looked a little excited, "I know there are many people who want to be my sister-in-law, but I don't like those people.

, if it were you, Sister Xuan, I would definitely agree."

Princess Changning was very ruthless when she treated Bei Wang because of Xiaocao, which made her feel that Xiaocao was a bit hard-hearted. However, after the old concubine explained it to her in detail, her feelings towards Xiaocao changed.

Now that she knew that her grandmother wanted to hire Xiaocao to be her brother's step-concubine, she didn't have many ideas. However, in her opinion, no one was more suitable to be her sister-in-law than Xiaocao, so she was naturally happy.

Xiaocao was a little stunned when Princess Changning said her first words, no, what does this mean?

"Princess, I don't know about this matter. Who did you listen to?"

"Ah?" Princess Changning belatedly discovered that she might have "got into trouble." Listening to this meaning, her grandfather and brother seemed to have not yet told Wen that they had nothing to say, and they hesitated for a while and didn't know how to answer.

.

Seriously speaking, Princess Changning is only fourteen years old. She is absolutely comfortable in the Dingbei County Prince's Mansion, without the twists and turns of other high-end mansions. In addition, because she has little contact with the outside world, she is here.

In essence, she is much simpler than girls of the same age, and closer to those teenage girls in Xiaocao's previous life. Xiaocao naturally did not embarrass her, and the topic turned around in two sentences.

However, Xiaocao still listened to what Princess Changning said. If nothing else, at least the old concubine should have this intention. What prompted the old concubine to have such an idea? Xiaocao was confused.

.

Even so, when she saw King Dingbei, Xiaocao's mood still didn't change much.

In comparison, Mu Bei is not so calm. He can remain calm when facing thousands of enemies, but when it comes to his children's personal affairs, he really looks like a boy who has just begun to fall in love. It is difficult to control his emotions.

At a loss.

Last time when his grandmother mentioned that he wanted to marry Xiaocao, he was quite uncomfortable facing Xiaocao. Even though Xiaocao noticed it, he didn't think about it and he breathed a sigh of relief. But today

It's different, he was actually picked on by his little sister.

When Xiaocao checked Mu Bei's injuries, she felt the stiffness of his body. She had encountered this kind of situation before. She didn't know why, but she thought that he still didn't like direct contact with the opposite sex, so she asked him softly.

Relax, now, I probably have found the crux of the problem, so I didn't say anything this time, I just concentrated on completing my work.

It didn't take much time, but Mu Bei was sweating all over.

Mu Bei carefully looked at Xiaocao's expression, which seemed to be no different from the past. While he breathed a sigh of relief, he was also a little frustrated and disappointed. The lack of reaction also meant that he was also...

"Fourth girl..." Mu Bei said hesitantly.

"Huh?" Xiaocao looked up at him.

Mu Bei opened his mouth several times, but it was difficult to say what he said. Just facing Xiaocao's quiet eyes, he suddenly felt that if he didn't speak today, he might not even have the chance to speak in the future. "Before, Changning

Said..."

"Well, you don't have to worry about it, Your Majesty. I didn't take it seriously." Xiaocao was not surprised that what she said to Princess Changning, King Dingbei knew so quickly. After all, every time she came to Princess Dingbei's mansion, he was there.

The "attendants" around me greeted him every time.

"No," why didn't he take it seriously? Mu Bei naturally wanted her to take it seriously, "What Changning said, is it possible? I mean..." Mu Bei seemed a little incoherent.

Xiaocao's eyes became visibly cold, "I originally thought that this might just be what the old concubine meant. Even if she mentioned it to the prince, the prince would not agree. The prince's deep love for the princess is

It is well known to all, but is the prince's affection so short-lived?" Knowing that with his status and the situation of Dingbei County Prince's Palace, it is necessary for him to remarry, but the "unkindness" of Dingbei Prince is still

It reduced Xiaocao's originally good sense of him.

Mu Bei didn't expect such a development, and immediately became anxious, "Fourth girl, it's not like this..." Mu Bei tightened his grip on the armrests of the wooden wheelchair. Due to nervousness and excessive force, the veins on the back of his hands were prominent. For military accidents,

He is not an eloquent person, but now he must make it clear. Maybe he should be thankful that the fourth girl Wenren is different from ordinary people and can still wait for him to speak calmly and rationally. "No matter what the fourth girl is from

In every aspect, it is admirable and worthy of praise. In my situation, the girl should also understand that when the filial piety period comes next year, marriage will inevitably be put on the agenda. In comparison, I am also the most familiar with the girl..."

At this point, Mu Bei's words stopped abruptly, and he even wanted to slap himself hard. See what he said?

However, Xiaocao's expression softened a lot, and was even a bit funny, "Your Majesty, what you mean is that you have to marry anyway, why not marry someone you are familiar with, someone you understand relatively well?"

——No! Mu Bei wanted to refute, but looking at Xiaocao's expression, he couldn't refute it at all. It was obvious that compared to him who abandoned his feelings for Guangsi so quickly, the fourth girl Wenren accepted it.

good.

Mu Bei felt like a lump in his throat, and felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart, but he still pulled out a forced smile and followed her words, "It's very abrupt to say this, I hope the girl won't blame it. Grandma originally wanted to mention it to Wen Renjia right now.

"I'm worried that someone else will hire a girl to marry me. I don't think it's appropriate. I want to wait until next year." Mu Bei tried his best to regain some goodwill for himself, "I don't want to be let out by Chang Ning today. So, I just asked.

Ask the girl if Mu Bei has such an honor."

No wonder Mu Bei would ask Xiaocao directly. In his opinion, Xiaocao is different from other girls. Although marriage is an important matter, her parents ordered the matchmaker to tell her, but here, if she doesn't nod, I'm afraid it will be a mistake.

It's hard to do, and if she nodded, there shouldn't be any problem on the other side.

"Your Majesty fell in love by mistake, and I have no intention of getting married." No matter what the reason was, Xiaocao decided to break it off.

"Why?" Mu Bei was quite excited, "If the fourth girl marries into the palace of Dingbei County, you will be like you before and you will be in the future. If you like medical skills and want to save people and cure diseases, you will never stop them. - I can also ask the girl.

Promise, there will never be anyone else around." From what she said about Guang Si, it can be seen that she is a passionate person, but any man who is passionate about love will never fall into her eyes. Mu Bei is self-sufficient, on this point

On the other hand, he can completely keep himself clean.

Mu Bei had said so. From Xiaocao's point of view, there seemed to be no reason to refuse. However, "Actually, to be honest with the prince, I have been married before."

Mu Bei was startled. This answer was really unexpected. But then he thought about it. It was rare for an eighteen-year-old woman to be unmarried. Moreover, Mu Bei also caught the key words in Xiaocao's talk.

"Passed" means that in the past, she either reconciled or divorced, or her husband is gone. The possibility is still very high. The fourth girl is a person who values ​​emotions. If nothing happens, even if she returns to Wenren's family,

Nor will she abandon her husband.

Mu Bei quickly adjusted his mentality, "That was before, he's not here now, isn't he?" This was also said very skillfully.

Xiaocao was a bit dumbfounded. She thought that as soon as she said these words, King Dingbei would give up his thoughts. After all, he had a distinguished status. If he didn't have any woman he wanted, why would he have to be a "widow" like her?

Mu Bei understood Xiaocao's expression and smiled softly, "I am just a widower now. Do the four girls dislike me?" The implication is the same, no one should dislike the other.

Xiaocao laughed. Under the feudal dynasty, if you were an ordinary person, because you couldn't get a wife, you wouldn't choose a wife. That would be normal. For nobles who fight monsters, how many people would line up waiting for them to choose? Dingbei

It is rare for a king to be able to maintain this mentality and show enough respect to women. From this point of view, King Dingbei is indeed a good husband candidate. "The prince is joking."

"Then, how about the fourth girl thinking about it? I don't care about the girl's concerns. Moreover, Mrs. Wenren is also quite concerned about the girl's life events. She may say that she lets the girl make her own decision, but in her heart, she is afraid that she still hopes.

The girl can have a home; I am not too impatient to deal with other people, but in this palace, there must be a mistress, and the girl has the right to help me. And you can rest assured that grandma will not mind, you know

Yes, she likes you very much."

He clearly had a good impression in his heart, but he had to say something like "deal" and solve mutual troubles. However, Mu Bei knew very well that this should be the only way he could "impress" Xiaocao.

After a moment of silence, Xiaocao still shook his head, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty."

Xiaocao had made up her mind not to get married before, but if her parents had strong wishes and there was a good candidate, Xiaocao might still marry. However, in her opinion, King Dingbei was a good candidate, but the Prince of Dingbei County did not.

Not necessarily, the key point lies in the old concubine. She knows that the old concubine likes her, but this love was originally based on her saving her, saving King Dingbei, and indirectly saving the palace of Dingbei County.

Apart from these, even if the old concubine likes her, it is limited.

Moreover, the old concubine is not a person suitable to be an "old woman". She takes the Mu family too seriously. When nothing happens, she may be fine, but if something goes wrong, as a daughter-in-law, if she has nothing to do with the Mu family,

If the old lady's position is not in harmony, there is no doubt that she will be abandoned by the old concubine. Although thinking about it now is just asking for trouble, but it is a matter of life, so there is nothing wrong with giving it more consideration.
