Chapter 289 I'm Not Interested in Her
As the saying goes, women don’t love bad men.
Whether this statement is right or wrong is not the point, nor is there a deeper understanding of it.
But at least Li Wutong did have some feelings towards Wei Changtian that she had never had before.
It is undoubtedly too much of a stretch to call this feeling "love", it should be more of a "curiosity".
As a princess, everyone around her, men and women alike, had obeyed her orders since she was a child. So when had anyone dared to treat her so lightly?
Not to mention that this man is, strictly speaking, a young master from an aristocratic family in the enemy country.
Li Wutong sometimes felt very aggrieved and wished he could cut Wei Changtian into pieces to avenge this "disrespect". At the very least, he had to find an opportunity to make Wei Changtian suffer a defeat to vent his hatred.
But sometimes she wanted to know more about this man, and even occasionally "enjoyed" the process of arguing with Wei Changtian, even though she had never won. In fact, this kind of "curiosity" had also appeared in Lu Jingyao before.
However, the reason why the latter has such a feeling is more because of the contrast brought about by the reversal of Wei Changtian's image from "good" to "evil".
As for Li Wutong, she seemed to simply think that a man like Wei Changtian, who would do anything to achieve his goals and even resort to all despicable tricks, was quite interesting.
"Whoa!"
In front of the carriage, the guard driving the carriage tightened the reins, and the carriage slowly stopped in an open area in the night.
Although there was still no one around at this time, accidents are prone to occur when traveling at night, so the general in charge of the escort mission decided to rest here for one night.
"Princess, Master Wei, the food is ready."
Someone reported outside the car curtain, and Wei Changtian yawned and woke up from his dream.
“Eat, eat!”
He was the first to get out of the carriage, looking at the steaming iron pot not far away, and muttered casually: "If you are not active in eating, there must be something wrong with your brain."
Chu Xianping and You Jia were already accustomed to Wei Changtian's "new words" that popped up from time to time, and their expressions did not show any abnormality at this time.
Li Wutong, who was bending down to get out of the car, was stunned when he heard this.
Not eating actively, is there something wrong with your brain? Although I understand what this means, why do I always feel weird? I looked up at the figure who was already heading straight for the campfire, shook my head, took two quick steps to catch up, and then took the lead and sat down on the open space next to Wei Changtian before You Jia.
Because she had been trained in the army since she was young, Li Wutong was not as particular as other princesses. It was common for her to sit on the ground and sleep in the open air.
He served himself a bowl of soup, held the wooden bowl and drank it slowly, while secretly glancing at Wei Changtian who was eating calmly next to him.
After hesitating for a long time, Li Wutong finally couldn't help but whispered, "Hey, I heard you're good at writing poetry?"
"Baji, Baji~"
"Did you hear me?!"
"Baji, Baji~"
"you!"
Li Wutong was so angry at being ignored repeatedly that he nudged Wei Changtian's arm with his elbow.
“.”
Wei Changtian stopped eating and turned his head lazily.
"What's wrong?"
"W-Why did you pretend you didn't hear me just now?!"
"Hmm? Did the princess just talk to me?"
"Of course! I asked you if you were good at writing poetry!"
“Oh, I heard it.”
Wei Changtian narrowed his eyes and said calmly, "But Princess, I won't say hello."
My name is not hello, my name is... If Li Wutong had the good fortune to watch "Meteor Shower" starring Sister Shuangzi, he would definitely understand this joke at this moment.
But unfortunately, she had no idea who "Chu Yuxuan" was, so she was just stunned at the moment.
Wei Changtian continued to eat in silence until he heard another sentence after a while -
"Well, that is Master Wei."
"Um."
Wei Changtian didn't even raise his head and said casually: "I can't write poetry."
“.”
Li Wutong was stunned: "But the poem "The Clouds Reflect on Clothes and the Flowers Reflect on Face" and "Spring River Moonlit Night" from the Chunlong Poetry Conference."
"Those are poems I copied from other people."
Wei Changtian swallowed a piece of boiled meat and said, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I've disappointed the princess."
“.”
Copied other people's poems.
Of course Li Wutong would not believe such nonsense and just thought that Wei Changtian was still angry about his behavior just now.
It was impossible for her to apologize to the latter, so after a long silence, she just muttered "liar" in a low voice, and then lowered her head to eat.
The bright moon flies to the sky, the ground is warm and the sky is cold.
The bonfire was burning brightly in the night. The roasted hare on the bonfire was turned over, and oil droplets sizzled into the fire, reflecting the embarrassed expressions of the people except Wei Changtian.
Everyone, including several guards, heard the conversation between the two, but of course they didn't dare to say anything more.
After all, the princess certainly didn't need their permission to do anything she wanted.
However, after looking at each other, someone shook his head slightly.
The princess may not realize that something is wrong, but they have to do something.
Two hours later, the moon was high in the sky.
The warm tent was covered with fur mats and blankets. Wei Changtian was alone, practicing the Tiaoyue Sword with his eyes closed in his dream.
Although Li Wutong was very afraid that he would run away, it was impossible for him to watch him sleep every day. Therefore, Wei Changtian now had the opportunity to be alone, but there would always be guards guarding outside the tent.
"Master Wei, are you asleep?"
Suddenly, a slight voice floated in from outside the curtain.
Hmm? Wei Changtian frowned and sat up. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Not yet. Do you have anything to do?"
"Yes, I wonder if I can come in and have a face-to-face meeting with you, sir?"
"Okay, come in."
Sitting cross-legged, Wei Changtian looked at the man who came in through the curtains and motioned for him to sit down as well: "General, what do you want to tell me?"
"Sir, I am a simple man, so I will speak frankly."
The man in the embroidered fish armor also sat cross-legged, with a serious look on his face: "Sir, the princess grew up in a military camp since she was young. Although she is not as concerned about the difference between men and women as other women, she has never experienced love affairs."
"But no matter what, Your Highness is the daughter of our Great Emperor, and your every word and action is watched by everyone, so."
"Okay."
Before the man could finish his words, Wei Changtian interrupted with a smile, "Are you just trying to tell me to stay away from your princess so that she won't fall in love with me?"
"this"
Although the man was a military general, he did not expect Wei Changtian to speak so bluntly. After hesitating for a long time, he nodded awkwardly.
"Indeed, that is exactly what I mean."
"Hahahaha, just say it directly. I can understand."
Wei Changtian laughed twice, patted the man on the shoulder and consoled him, "Don't worry, I have no interest in your princess at all."
"To be honest, even if she cried and asked to marry me, I would not be interested."
"Well"
The man always felt that there was something wrong with these words, but since his goal had been achieved, he didn't worry about it anymore.
"In that case, I will not disturb you from resting."
"good"
“.”
After a few more polite words, the conversation in the tent ended there.
The man walked out of the tent and continued to stand guard, while Li Wutong, who had just jogged back to his tent, began to tremble in his shoulders. He was so angry about what he had just overheard.
What a scoundrel! Who could fall in love with him?
What do you mean by "I'm not interested even if she cries and shouts to marry me"? ! ! I, I, I Bastard!
