Chapter 159 He Can't Be the Emperor?
"Please wait a moment."
Tuoba Wenjing was walking towards Xixia with a dark face when someone called out from behind him.
Tuoba Wenjing asked impatiently, "What does your prince want now?"
"It's not our prince, it's the princess."
A glint flashed in Tuoba Wenjing's eyes, and he opened his mouth.
The Indian man replied, "Of course, I'm not looking for you."
“Our Queen Consort has something to give to the Princess.” A-San looked at Tuoba Yan’er.
He shoved a bundle over there, and said, "Here you go."
After saying that, Ah San turned and left, completely ignoring Tuoba Wenjing standing to the side.
Tuoba Wenjing felt embarrassed and peeked out to see what was inside the bundle that Tuoba Yan'er had opened.
That could make Tuoba Yan'er so happy.
Tuoba Yan'er noticed someone peeping and tightly clutched her bundle, saying, "There's none for you."
Tuoba Wenjing touched his nose. "Who cares?"
"I'm just afraid you'll be deceived. The people of Dongling are extremely cunning, especially that princess; I think she's particularly good at winning people over."
Don't do anything to betray Xixia just because of some small favor she might do. Remember your place...
"Please, cousin," Tuoba Yan'er said, "don't ruin things just because you can't have them, okay?"
"In this situation, everyone will think that you are being very unfair."
“You like her, but she’s already married. You clearly want her, but she’s just ‘a woman’.”
Tuoba Yan'er said sarcastically, "You men are all hypocrites."
"Also, she won't be interested in you, don't even think about it."
"Why?" Tuoba Wenjing pressed. "Is it because my status is inferior to that sickly prince, or because I am less handsome than him?"
Why does she look down on me?
If he wins the position of crown prince in the future, he will be the ruler of the country, and she will be given the position of queen.
What is Pei Yanchuan? He's just a king of a different surname, and that's the highest position he's ever held.
"Stop with your little schemes." Tuoba Yan'er bluntly exposed them. "First of all, you're definitely not as good-looking as anyone else."
“This is my fair assessment. I can’t side with you just because you’re my cousin.”
"Secondly, how do you know he can't become emperor?"
"Most importantly, he's no longer sickly; his poison has healed itself."
"What?" Tuoba Wenjing exclaimed, "How is this possible?"
Tuoba Yan'er covered her ear that was closest to hers in disgust. "What's impossible about that?"
"It was Jiang Wan Ning who cured him."
"Tell me, how could such an extraordinary woman possibly be interested in you, given how much you disregard her?"
"Furthermore, she is not the kind of person who would easily betray love."
After Tuoba Yan'er finished speaking, she exerted force with her legs, squeezed the horse's belly, and took the lead in leaving.
"Giddy up!"
Tuoba Wenjing gave chase, his heart filled with mixed emotions. The woman he had just looked down upon had actually...
He who wins this woman wins the world.
If Pei Yanchuan had a wife like that, would I still have a chance to defeat him?
At this moment, Tuoba Wenjing's mind was filled with images of Jiang Wanning.
I originally thought she was just a good-looking woman who was good at business, and not exactly a pretty face.
Unexpectedly, she had already surpassed many men in this world.
For the first time, Tuoba Wenjing began to doubt the partners he had chosen.
"Ruofeng".
The guard beside Tuoba Wenjing said, "Your subordinate is here."
"Pass on the news that Pei Yanchuan has recovered to that person, and sound him out to see if he knows or not."
If Tuoba Wenjing knew but didn't say anything, he would definitely not cooperate with him again.
If he doesn't know, it proves he's rather stupid, but it's still possible to maintain a cooperative relationship with him for the time being.
"yes."
Tuoba Wenjing glanced at Ruofeng, "Speak your mind."
Ruofeng hesitated for a moment, "I just felt that the person who delivered the things earlier looked somewhat familiar."
"I feel like I've seen this somewhere before."
"You mean that idiot who delivered the package just now?"
Ruofeng nodded. "It's him."
"He's just a lowly guard. Where could I have seen him before? There are plenty of people in this world who look alike."
"You must have remembered it wrong."
If you nod in agreement, you still feel like you've seen it somewhere before.
After thinking about it for a while, he stopped thinking about it. In any case, they were people from the Eastern Ling Kingdom, and had nothing to do with the Western Xia.
......
Jiang Wan Ning prepared hot pot base and sent it to Tuoba Yan'er, along with the recipe for the base.
Right now, her business isn't just this hot pot restaurant; most importantly, she's constantly improving the broth for the hot pot.
The prescription given to Tuoba Yan'er was just one of the recipes.
Jiang Wan Ning arrived at the camp of Hai Tang and Shao Yao.
"Still not awake?"
"Your Highness, no. Just now, in order to express my gratitude for the porridge, I drank a little bit of Peony, but I didn't drink a drop of Begonia."
Seeing that Shaoyao's once chubby face had become terribly thin, Jiang Wanning said, "Make the porridge a little thinner and feed her slowly."
Not eating is not a problem.
"Yes," Mo Qing replied.
Mo Ran lifted the tent curtain and walked in, "Your Highness."
"Um."
"What is this?" Jiang Wan Ning looked at the thing in Mo Ran's hand.
Mo Ran said somewhat embarrassedly, "I noticed that Haitang wasn't eating any of the food, so I remembered that Shaoyao once said that Haitang liked the taste of grass."
"I found some alfalfa and cooked it in the porridge. I'll see if Haitang will eat a bite after smelling it."
In this sweltering heat, all the crops have dried up, and it's a good thing we found this little bit of alfalfa.
It's likely that Mo Ran searched for a long time under the scorching sun before finally finding it.
Mo Ran's personality is similar to Hai Tang's; they are both people of few words but capable of getting things done.
"Thank you," Jiang Wanning said sincerely.
Mo Ran lowered his head, picked up the porridge, stirred it with a spoon, blew on it, and then slowly fed it to Haitang.
After several unsuccessful attempts to feed her, he simply let Haitang lean against him and sit up halfway.
Haitang only managed to take a sip or two.
The group was very excited. "Thank you both for your hard work."
"I'll go and brew some medicine for them."
Jiang Wan Ning turned and left after saying that.
Upon arriving at the cooking tent, the two soldiers cooking whispered among themselves.
"Hey, now that the princess is here, does she even know about the woman the prince brought with him?"
Another person said, "Keep your voice down. Judging from the princess's expression, she seems unaware."
"You must not let the princess hear this. If it reaches the prince's ears and the princess is no longer on his side, you'll be in danger."
"Hey, I was just venting to you. You said that before you met the princess, you thought that woman was pretty."
"But when he met the princess, the woman was just so-so. What kind of taste does the prince have? With such a beautiful princess, why would he choose someone like that?"
Another person was putting noodles into the pot and said, "What do you know?"
"There are times when you get tired of the food at home. After getting used to delicacies, you have to eat this kind of big pot rice every now and then."
