Chapter 149: The same heart



Looking at Zongzheng Xiaoting approaching slowly, not only Nangong Muxi was shocked, but even the always cold Situ Xunxiao felt a slight ripple in his heart.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting naturally knew how she would look in the eyes of ordinary people if she dressed up tonight. She had always known the superiority of the beauty of the owner of this body, and because of this, she was always able to quietly cover up the overly dazzling light. But tonight she chose to let it bloom.

Nangong Muxi stared at Zongzheng Xiaoting and couldn't help but feel surprised. How could such a woman be a miser? At this moment, Situ Xunxiao felt a mixture of sadness and sweetness. If it wasn't for the purpose of making a deal, Zongzheng Xiaoting wouldn't have dressed up so well to cater to his words of having a distinguished guest to receive, right? But if it wasn't for this, he would never have seen this side of her!

In fact, it was not just the two of them who were a little surprised. Zong Zheng Xiaoting couldn't help but be surprised when she saw the person coming as she approached step by step. She narrowed her eyes and stared at Nangong Muchi for a long time, with a wave of suspicion in her heart. If she remembered correctly, wasn't the person in front of her the regent of Tianxi Kingdom, Nangong Muchi? Weren't they mortal enemies when they asked for a marriage? That's right, according to the news that Chen Xianzhi gave her, these two people are indeed two legendary figures who are well-known in the world today, but have never been seen fighting each other. They are known as equally matched.

Of course, the well-informed Zong Zheng Xiaoting did not remain immersed in her surprise. She retracted her expression, still with a faint smile on her face, and slowly approached the two of them. She nodded slightly to Situ Xunxiao, "Prince!"

"Princess, you have arrived just in time. This is Nangong Muxi, the regent of Tianxi Kingdom. I'm sure the princess has some memories of him."

Situ Xunxiao introduced Nangong Muxi, but saw a smile on Nangong Muxi's lips. "I guess the princess doesn't remember me very well. After all, I still remember that time when I just walked into the palace banquet, I heard the princess say, but with such an evaluation, I think..."

She had never expected Nangong Muxi to directly say the words that she thought she had said quietly. Zongzheng Xiaoting muttered in her heart, what a vengeful man he is. But it was thanks to his words that she really understood that in this era of mysterious martial arts, there are some things that you really need to be careful about. But since he had already made it clear, how could she be beaten?

Zongzheng Xiaoting smiled at Nangong Muxi and then sat down at the round table. "I didn't expect the Regent Prince to have such good hearing. If I remember correctly, my tiny muttering was a million miles away from the Prince's!"

I was still wondering how she would answer and explain herself, but I never expected that the woman in front of me would be so generous and speak frankly without any attempt to hide anything.

Listening to the conversation between the two, Situ Xunxiao was obviously confused. Just as his eyebrows twitched slightly, Zongzheng Xiaoting's voice came out softly, accompanied by some smiles, "Today, even if it is the Regent Prince in front of me, I will still say this. It's just like this."

“Oh?” Nangong Muchi’s beautiful almond eyes slightly lifted up as his eyebrows moved slightly, and he regained his evil charm and arrogance as he did in front of others.

"It is rumored that the War God Prince and the Regent Prince are equally matched. It is said that they are equally good in terms of strategy, character and even martial arts. It is hard to tell who is better. This rumor has spread to my ears. Everyone would have some imagination in their mind, right?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting said with a smile on her face. It is hard to tell how much falsehood there is behind her words. "But the Regent Prince doesn't know that I have already met the Prince before and fell in love with him at first sight. Women are selfish. They have the Prince in their hearts and naturally have their own plans. In comparison, they will naturally think that this is nothing special and can only tolerate the Regent Prince's offense."

Zongzheng Xiaoting's words made Nangong Muxi speechless, but made Situ Xunxiao frown. How could he not know that this was just a trick of his? However, he had a vague hope and wanted to know if she also had her own world in her heart. However... his reason told him very honestly that it was impossible!

Seeing the two of them being silent, Zong Zheng Xiaoting said a few words to Qing Qing and Ning Shuang, "Go check if the dishes in the kitchen are ready. I'm afraid the two princes must be getting hungry from waiting."

"Yes!" Qingqing and Ningshuang responded and retreated, and Situ Xunxiao and Nangong Muchi came back to their senses.

Nangong Muxi naturally understood that Zongzheng Xiaoting's words were her cunning, but in her heart, she was also surprised at her adaptability. Yes, he knew about the deal between Xunxiao and her, and he also understood that Xunxiao invited her over tonight, and the appearance was just to ask her to cooperate, but she came up with words to evade him and create a false impression in such a short time, which was indeed not easy. Moreover, when she saw herself and Xunxiao appearing in the restaurant, she was only slightly stunned and then recovered the demeanor and composure that a princess should have. These are not things that can be cultivated in the long run, they are just spontaneous adaptability.

"I never thought that the person who played the song "Ten Sides of Ambush" that day would be a princess like this." Nangong Muxi curled his lips and chuckled, speaking casually. "I really couldn't have thought that such a person, and Xun Xiaokong, who was so guarded by money, would be such a contradictory combination as the princess, and such a person would actually yearn for freedom."

Freedom? Zong Zheng Xiaoting was secretly surprised, but he still had a smile on his face. "I wonder what the Regent Prince got this from?"

While they were talking, Qingqing and the others had already placed all the dinner on the table.

Situ Xunxiao didn't say anything either. He just waved his hand slightly to signal everyone to pick up their chopsticks, and listened quietly to the conversation between people.

"Don't you know, princess, that music can tell a person's feelings? No matter how hard you try to hide your inner feelings, you can never conceal the true feelings in your heart? It's funny to say that I have heard the princess's feelings twice. Whether it's a song like "High Mountains and Flowing Water" or "Ten Sides of Ambush", there is a kind of longing and a desire for freedom in the princess's music." Nangong Muxi smiled and shrugged his shoulders, with a confident look on his face. "I dare not say anything else, but I can tell people's hearts by listening to music. I'm afraid there are not many people in this world who can stand shoulder to shoulder with me and say that they understand the way of music very well."

Hearing this, a glimmer of joy flashed in Zongzheng Xiaoting's eyes.
