Chapter 174 Once done, there is no turning back
Lin Tingfeng thought of something and his expression changed immediately.
He lowered his voice and said, "Absolutely not. We don't have the chips to make a second deal with the Crown Prince of Liang. He is a complete lunatic."
Zhuang Shihan reached out and tapped his chest, saying quietly, "The best way to deal with a madman is to be even crazier than he is."
"But..." Lin Tingfeng still disagreed.
"There's nothing to worry about." Zhuang Shihan interrupted him coldly, reminding him, "Brother Feng, don't forget that once you do something, there's no turning back."
"Once or twice, what's the difference?"

"How did you take care of the prince? How could he get such serious burns?" Song Yanxi looked at the series of blisters on Mo Jinchuan's legs and got angry at An Yi for the first time.
But the next moment, she felt somewhat relieved and said, "Fortunately, I removed the clothes in time after the burn. If they were stuck to the skin..."
When she thought of that scene, Song Yanxi felt a slight pain in her heart, and her fair little face was filled with anger.
Mo Jinchuan raised the corner of his lips slightly and said, "It's not his fault."
Song Yanxi glared at him and said unhappily, "It's a pity that Your Highness can still smile. If the wound were just two inches higher..."
Her peripheral vision caught sight of the half-cut white shorts piled up at the base of his legs. She coughed lightly and looked away, looking at An Yi who was standing beside her with a nervous look on his face, not even daring to breathe loudly.
"Please go to my room and get the dark purple bottle on the leftmost shelf of the third layer of the medicine box."
It was too conspicuous to walk around with a medicine box, so she only brought a needle kit with her when she came over, which she would use to open Mo Jinchuan's meridians that she had sealed with silver needles this morning.
Zhuang Shihan is indeed quite capable. If his legs are not completely numb, he probably won't be able to fool her.
However, this method also has its drawbacks. If the meridians are not reopened with silver needles within two hours, the meridians may be blocked and the legs may be in unbearable pain at best. At worst, the meridians may be damaged and walking may be impeded.
Privately, Song Yanxi was not willing to use such a risky method because the risk was too great.
But when she came to look for Mo Jinchuan this morning, she found out that they had the same idea.
Lin Tingfeng's ability is not outstanding. He can neither convince the people with force nor is he good at employing people due to his short-sightedness. How could he have achieved military exploits of all sizes within two years?
She didn't believe it was just luck.
Heaven is not so blind as to protect such a heartless and ungrateful villain.
There must be something behind this!
Otherwise, for someone like Lin Tingfeng who is so cunning and only wants to climb up the social ladder, even if you put a knife to his neck, he will never hand over the military command as he did in the first place.
That would be more painful than killing him.
And why was there no news of the 8,000 soldiers who went to rescue him, but only one in ten survived?
Lin Tingfeng is just a mere man. How could he have such great power to cover the sky with one hand?
Song Yanxi was lost in thought for a moment and didn't notice that a pair of eyes were falling on her unscrupulously at this moment.
Mo Jinchuan's gaze followed the slightly red tip of her ear down, and when his eyes touched the earlobe as soft as jade, his eyes sank slightly.
Even though he had never touched it, he knew that it must be fragrant and soft.
Just one look makes me want to kiss her.
Although he knew that his thoughts were too reckless, Mo Jinchuan no longer felt guilty and didn't even think there was anything wrong with it.
Although he did not agree with his father's character, some of his words were correct.
The so-called gentlemen are just pretending to be nice to others. If everyone in the world were a noble person, why would they marry, have children and be contaminated by worldly things?
If you want to win the person you love, what's wrong with being a little despicable?
It's a pity that he had not yet been enlightened and did not understand the mystery at that time. Moreover, because of a casual remark Song Yanxi made to the matchmaker about being a gentleman, he trapped himself thousands of miles away from her.
When you think about it carefully, it's really stupid.
As long as I can win the beauty, what's wrong with being a villain?
Song Yanxi raised her eyes and was unexpectedly met with a pair of extremely hot black eyes.
Seeing that he was discovered, Mo Jinchuan was not panicked at all. Instead, he asked seriously, "Miss, do you think that a boring person like me can please you?"
It was a simple name, but when it came out of his mouth it had a more tender connotation, making people feel numb.
Suppressing the throbbing in her heart, Song Yanxi lowered her eyes to avoid his deep black eyes, and spoke casually while checking the wound on his leg.
"Your Highness, please do not underestimate yourself. There are countless women in the capital who want to marry you as your wife. Even as a concubine, there are many who are vying for you. It all depends on whether Your Highness likes you or not."
Thinking of something, she unconsciously raised a smile on her lips, and her voice became much lighter, "What girl doesn't like a young hero on a white horse? When the prince returns to the capital in triumph, I hope he won't be knocked unconscious by the girls' sweet bags and handkerchiefs."
Staring at her fair neck, Mo Jinchuan suddenly asked, "What about you?"
Song Yanxi paused, her heartbeat becoming irregular.
The room was so quiet for a moment that it seemed as if the only sound was her heartbeat.
"Bang, bang, bang..."
Song Yanxi wanted to say something, but she felt as if a ball of cotton was stuffed in her throat. The cotton was soaked in water and heavy, blocking her voice completely.
She stared at her fingertips somewhat helplessly, thinking that she might have heard it wrong, but at the same time, she couldn't help but curse herself for being useless.
She had clearly made preparations to marry into Prince Jin's Mansion, and had even found out the preferences of her children. But when the critical moment came, she found that her mouths were simply not listening.
Song Yanxi pinched her palms, adjusted her breathing, and kept telling herself not to be nervous.
Just like the day when I first met the prince, it would be enough to show one tenth of the calmness I had at that time.
She took a deep breath, suddenly looked up, and met Mo Jinchuan's eyes with a gentle smile. Her heartbeat became louder in her ears.
She heard herself say, "I am..."
Of course I am willing to do so.
"Girl, look at this bottle!"
An Yi rushed in and interrupted her before she finished speaking.
The charming atmosphere in the house suddenly disappeared.
Song Yanxi quickly looked away, feeling her face burning, and she wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
What on earth were I doing just now?
She hasn't divorced yet and is someone else's wife. How can she say that she is willing to do so?
It's ridiculous!
You shouldn't even think about it.
Besides, His Royal Highness Prince Jin just asked her what she thought, not whether she was willing...
Seeing Song Yanxi trying to avoid him, Mo Jinchuan couldn't help but frown, and looked at An Yi who was handing over the medicine bottle.
When An Yi met his cold eyes, he immediately understood something. He put the medicine on the table next to him and didn't dare to take another step forward.
He said respectfully, "Master, General Xu just sent someone to look for me. I'll be back soon."
Song Yanxi turned around, a hint of pink on her pretty face, "What did General Xu say?"
