Chapter 332 Unlucky White Moonlight 8
Mei Niang was not angry either. She was still gentle, kind, considerate and generous. "Your Highness, I misheard that matter. It's all my fault. If I hadn't asked you to go to worship Buddha, Miss Luo would definitely not have broken off the engagement with you."
When Prince Jin heard the words "cancellation of engagement", his expression darkened even more. He could imagine how others would laugh at him, especially his brothers.
Mei Niang knew that he would be angry if she said that, but that was her purpose. How could she highlight her good points if he wasn't angry?
Mei Niang was not frightened by his dark face. She closed the door casually and leaned against Prince Jin as if she had no bones, with her arms hanging directly on his arms.
"Your Highness, I rushed here the moment I heard about that incident. I was afraid you'd get sick from anger. If anything happened to you, I'd die~"
The implication was obvious. King Jin felt a softness that was different from his own, and his restless heart suddenly found a place to rest. His hands involuntarily hugged the other's waist. Needless to say, what happened next.
The two of them were fooling around in the study, with the guards outside watching, the noises constantly reaching their ears, but their faces showed no expression, as they were truly tired of hearing them.
Everyone says that Prince Jin is affectionate, but to him that's bullshit. However, he knows what he's doing, so he can only keep his mouth shut.
The work was done and he felt relieved. Prince Jin gently stroked Mei Niang's face with his fingers, his eyes full of pity.
He liked her appearance, but her status was not good enough. If she had been born from the Shangshu's wife's belly, he wouldn't have gone to so much trouble to provoke that bitch Luo An.
Thinking of Luo An, the fire that King Jin had just extinguished began to burn again, and the strength of his fingers unconsciously became a little heavier.
"Oh, my Lord, you hurt me."
Mei Niang knew what Prince Jin was thinking. After all, it was like this from the beginning, calling out the bitch's name to her face from time to time.
In the past, they had been engaged, and she had tolerated it, but after listening to her father's words today, she felt that she had not done enough and should try harder to grasp something, otherwise...
Thinking of the fate of those concubines in the capital, Mei Niang was filled with resistance. She had no choice about her birth, so she would just choose her future.
The soft and gentle voice interrupted Prince Jin's thoughts. Looking at Mei Niang's slightly red cheeks, he felt a little distressed for no reason.
However, the heartache is only temporary. Now Prince Jin only regards Mei Niang as a tool to vent his anger.
The excitement of being together secretly with Luo An is completely different from that in the previous life, and the feelings are naturally not as deep as before.
Just when Mei Niang thought he would comfort her, Prince Jin pushed the two of them away irritably and said in a rather bad tone.
"What are you doing here today? Don't you know how many people are staring at me and the palace?"
The tone of reproach was completely different from when he asked her just now. To be honest, Mei Niang was sad.
But she has suffered enough bullying over the years, and this is not a big deal. As long as Prince Jin can give her what she wants, she can endure it.
Mei Niang bit her teeth lightly, her eyes dim and unclear, and when she looked up again, she still had that little white flower expression.
"Your Highness, I know I was wrong, but I was really worried about you. Don't worry! I was very careful along the way, and no one would notice me."
Seeing that Prince Jin's complexion had improved slightly, Mei Niang continued.
"Your Highness, how could Miss Luo treat you like this? I understand your feelings for her over the years best. If this isn't love, then what true feelings are there in this world?"
"Your Highness, since this matter was caused by me, let me end it! I will kneel down and apologize to Miss Luo. As long as she can be with you again, even if you kill me, I will not say a word."
Mei Niang's eyes were full of determination and reluctance, which made Prince Jin feel upset.
If that would get things back on track, he would do it.
But based on his understanding of the General's Mansion over the years, he knew that even if Mei Niang went to kneel down, even if he himself went to kneel down, it would probably not be of any use and would only add to the joke.
"Need not!"
Mei Niang lowered her head to wipe her tears, and a hint of success flashed in her eyes. She certainly didn't want to kneel down to that bitch Luo An, and she said this because she expected that King Jin would not let her do that.
Why not do it if you can please others just by talking?
But this was not enough. Mei Niang raised her head, tears welling up in her eyes. Her lips trembled a few times before she uttered a word, "But...but isn't this delaying the prince's important business?"
"I'm fine. Even if Miss Luo hits me or scolds me, I can bear it. I will never make her angry again. As long as she is willing to come back, I... I can completely disappear from the capital."
The two spent a lot of time in contact, and Prince Jin had more or less expressed his lofty ambitions to Mei Niang.
Obviously, her words touched the heart of Prince Jin again.
It would be a lie for Prince Jin to say he was moved when he saw Mei Niang leave the capital for him.
Although her mother was only a concubine, her food, clothing and other expenses were much better than those of ordinary people. She had not suffered much hardship growing up. If she really left the capital, how difficult would her life be!
Prince Jin did not doubt whether the other party was sincere. In his opinion, it was normal for these women to fall in love with him. He was Prince Jin, the future emperor. There should only be women who he didn't want, and there couldn't be any who didn't want him.
Obviously, Luo An had touched his sore spot.
Looking at Mei Niang's face, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind, and even he was shocked by this thought.
But for some reason, the more he thought about it, the more excited he became. Even though he felt it was a bit ridiculous, he still wanted to put it into action.
If this happens, all plans can go ahead.
The gloomy Prince Jin suddenly smiled. He had beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and there was a kind of gloomy beauty when he smiled, which made Mei Niang's heart beat wildly.
In the past, she felt that she loved Prince Jin’s money and power more, but at this moment, she felt that this person seemed to be very suitable for her.
Her infatuated look pleased King Jin very much. He reached out and pulled her into his arms, buried his head in Mei Niang's neck and sniffed her, his face full of joy.
Although she didn't understand why he suddenly became like this, Mei Niang was still very happy with his reaction. She took the initiative to climb up, and the two of them had another mess in the study.
After sweating profusely, King Jin finally told his plan.
"What did you say? You want me to..."
Mei Niang dreamed of replacing Luo An and becoming the Princess of Jin, but it was just a thought and she never dared to put it into action.
"What's all the fuss? Think about it, when the time comes, you'll be the eldest daughter of the Luo family. No one will look down on you because of your status as a concubine. Then we can be together naturally and take that position together."
With every word he spoke, the excitement on Mei Niang's face became more obvious, but she knew that this matter was very risky. If the Luo family found out and Prince Jin had someone to protect her, she would be in trouble.
Of course, Prince Jin could guess what she was thinking and said casually, "Why? You don't want to marry me?"
