Chapter 42 When choosing a wife, I want the best looking one
Xiao Jin nodded vigorously, staring at the Emperor's Heart Tree, which was no longer than a human's finger. "This is the Emperor's Heart Tree. Wherever it is, it will form its own spiritual vein. As long as time passes, this place will surely become a paradise!"
"Master, our space has spiritual energy!"
Wen Jiu frowned slightly: "What's the use? Can it return my afterlife flower to me?"
"Master!" Xiao Jin's face was filled with disapproval. "How can the Emperor's Heart Tree be compared to the lives lost in those few days? Even if I lose my entire life for this, what does it matter?"
Wenjiu: "What do you mean? With this, I can live forever?"
Xiao Jin shook his head: "No, the Emperor's Heart Tree has not yet grown. It is said that eating its fruit will ensure eternal life."
Wen Jiu: "Does that mean I will still die?"
Xiao Jin: "...Yes, but, Master, you still have 27 days to live. As long as Emperor Star doesn't go to other women, you won't die, right? Let's work hard, and life will get better and better!"
"Just think about it, compared to the past two days, we are the winners in life!"
As it said that, it rushed into the water and rolled around. "Emperor Tree! If I grow a tree with my master in the future, wouldn't I be the first koi in history to own an emperor tree? Roar, roar, roar~"
Wenjiu rolled her eyes. Forget it. She didn't bother about it anymore. It was her fault for being so impulsive.
After all, I made money today.
Wenjiu took another casual look at his bag and suddenly realized something was wrong.
"Hey? Why are there suddenly so many things in my bag?"
Xiao Jin took a look and said, "Oh, I forgot to mention it. Congratulations, Master, for obtaining the rare Emperor Heart Tree. The rewards are: a top-grade Soul-Preserving Pill, ten Rebirth Flowers, a Medal of Honor, and a Space Gift Pack."
Wenjiu's eyes widened instantly: "Why didn't you say so earlier!"
Just as I was about to check what was in the bag, a voice like thunder suddenly rushed into my ears.
"Warm the wine! I'm talking to you!"
Wenjiu immediately exited the space and opened his eyes, only to see a fair and tender child who had lost a tooth and was half a head shorter than him. He was squinting at him with a dark cloud over his head.
Is this... Fourteenth Master?
Wen Jiu was stunned. What was going on? Could it be that he could not only see the heart?
Xiao Jin just soaked in the water and didn't come to explain to her.
However, even without explanation, Wenjiu knew that the person in front of him was very unhappy.
Looking back at the Fourth Master, the hair on his head had turned white, without any sign of red.
Wenjiu was shocked. What happened?
"I'm talking to you, did you hear me? Do you believe I'll have you dragged out and beaten to death right now?"
This was the first time that the Fourteenth Master took the initiative to speak to a servant for several words, but received no response, and he was furious.
He pinched his waist and stared at Wenjiu with wide eyes, as if even if Wenjiu didn't say anything, he would do it himself.
"Good luck, Fourteenth Master. I was just punished by Lord Beile to face the wall. Without Lord Beile's permission, I cannot speak."
Wenjiu blinked and bowed softly.
Fourteen frowned and stared at Wenjiu's face for a long time, then suddenly said, "That's what you said."
"Fourth brother is so unkind. You are suffering here too. Why don't you follow me to my house?"
Wenjiu then saw the dark clouds above Fourteen's head turn into a red heart.
She was stunned for a long time and couldn't recover.
What happened?
Fourteenth didn't discuss this with Wenjiu. He turned around and went to Fourth Master, pointing at Wenjiu and said, "Fourth Brother, I want this pretty girl!"
The Fourth Master's expression suddenly turned cold: "What did you say?"
Fourteenth didn't notice the low pressure at all, and said with his hands on his hips, "Why does mother give all the good things to fourth brother?
I've never seen a prettier girl than her. Everyone says that the Han Chinese concubine, Concubine Wang, whom the Emperor brought into the palace as an exception, is a beauty rarely seen in a thousand years. Why do I feel that she is prettier than Concubine Wang? "
As he spoke, Fourteen glanced at Wenjiu, and another heart popped up on his head.
I am not happy at all to receive the warm wine of love.
It’s useless to be so good-looking.
Not only did he get into trouble, but the heart on the Fourth Master's head completely disappeared, replaced by a black mass!
"Master, what's going on? What happened to Emperor Planet? Suddenly, there were winds and heavy rain in space. If this continues, our flowers and trees will be drowned."
Wenjiu was also confused, how would she know?
"Really?" The Fourth Master's cold gaze fell on Wen Jiu: "I can't give you the person that Fourteenth Brother wants."
Wenjiu immediately knelt on the ground, being extremely careful and not daring to make a sound for a while, for fear of stepping on the Fourth Master's trap again.
The Fourteenth Master frowned deeply: "Why? I can exchange the treasure with Fourth Brother."
The Fourth Master took a sip of his teacup and said, "This woman is now my concubine. Do you still want to change her?"
"Concubine?" The Fourteenth Master frowned and glanced at the warm wine, then suddenly understood: "Indeed, I have such a beautiful girl, and I can't bear to let her be a maid."
After thinking for a while, the Fourteenth Master said, "We have many royal rules, but it's not uncommon to exchange concubines in the capital. Fourth Brother, let's do it secretly, without anyone knowing. Whatever you want, I will get it for you, as long as you give me the person."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone around gasped.
Su Peisheng carefully glanced at his master's expression, then at the warm wine.
I started to worry about Wenjiu.
How come I was targeted by a little devil like Fourteenth Master?
There is nothing that the Fourteenth Master wants that he cannot get.
Not only the Empress Defei, but also the Emperor and the Empress Dowager, all indulged him.
He once took a fancy to Lord Soetu's court boots, saying that the patterns on them were interesting. The Emperor actually indulged him and watched Soetu take off his court boots and give them to him.
The Fourteenth Master took a look and threw it aside. Poor Lord Suotu, his feet were bigger than those of ordinary people, and he couldn't find any boots that fit him in the palace. In the end, he went back in the cold winter wearing only socks. His back looked very desolate.
Now that the Fourteenth Master has set his sights on Wenjiu, I'm afraid this won't end well today.
"Oh?" The Fourth Master narrowed his stern eyes slightly. "Fourteen is so generous?"
"Of course!" The Fourteenth Master shook his head. "I want the prettiest one. When the time comes, I'll take her out to compete with the brothers. My girl will definitely be the prettiest, and make them envious."
Thinking of this, his eyes suddenly lit up: "I can make her my wife. That way, none of my brothers' wives will be as pretty as mine, haha."
As soon as the word "Fujin" came out, the air around them condensed again.
Although there is someone in Wenjiu's family who holds a sixth-rank official position, she is of bondservant origin after all, and is still the Fourth Master's concubine. The Fourteenth Master actually wants her to be his wife. This... is terrifying!
"How dare you!" The Fourth Master's expression suddenly changed. "Do you know what you are talking about? Choosing a wife is not something you can afford to play with!"
Fourteen glared and said, "When I choose a wife, I want the most beautiful one. The Emperor has poor taste and keeps matching couples randomly all day long!
Look at the wife chosen for the tenth brother. With such a dark complexion, you can’t even find her if she goes out at night!
