Fu Yunchen picked up the words she had written on her desk.
"A female imperial examination candidate?" He raised an eyebrow in surprise.
Mu Run snatched it back from his hand. "Get out."
Fu Yunchen sighed softly and said helplessly, "Run'er, when will you forgive me?"
Mu Run snorted. Just thinking about how she was almost cuckolded and gang-raped by several men, and how her martial arts were even crippled, made her furious. "I won't forgive you!"
Fu Yunchen flicked his sleeve, releasing a burst of energy that closed the room door.
"Run'er, I admit my mistake." His tone was extremely sincere.
Mu Run ignored him, sat down at the desk, picked up the brush to dip it in ink, and found that there was no ink in the inkstone.
At this moment, a slender, elegant hand took the kettle, poured some water into the inkstone, then picked up the ink stick and began grinding the ink, its movements graceful and beautiful.
Mu Run looked up at his face. His thick, drooping eyelashes, like two small fans, fluttered slightly, captivating the heart.
"Where did we go wrong?"
“We shouldn’t have agreed to the marriage alliance,” Fu Yunchen replied.
"Anything else?"
"I shouldn't have met Yushan."
"..." Mentioning Yu Shan made Mu Run's anger rise even more. "Anything else?"
Seeing that Mu Run was getting angrier, Fu Yunchen wisely kept quiet.
"Why aren't you saying anything!" Mu Run glared at him.
After hesitating for a long time, Fu Yunchen finally said, "Everything is wrong!"
Mu Run's face immediately turned red with anger. "You're not admitting your mistake at all."
Fu Yunchen: "..."
He now understood perfectly what Qiao Dongzi had told him—women are unreasonable. Especially when they're angry, they're domineering and completely irrational!
But if you want her to stay calm, there are ways. You can either force yourself on her until she's completely submissive and begging you for more, or you can let her scold you until she gives up!
Fu Yunchen wanted to use the first method, but this woman was probably too careless and didn't realize that she had already...
For now, she can only endure being scolded until she gets too tired to argue with him anymore.
"Get out!" Mu Run didn't want to see him.
Fu Yunchen looked at the ink in the inkstone; there was almost enough for her. He stopped grinding the ink and said, "Don't be angry. Be careful not to hurt yourself."
"It's none of your business!" Mu Run raised her hand and rubbed her stomach. She had eaten a bit too much for dinner and felt bloated.
When Fu Yunchen saw her rubbing her stomach, his expression suddenly changed drastically, and he asked anxiously, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Mu Run frowned. "Why aren't you leaving yet? I'll feel much better once you're gone."
Fu Yunchen hesitated for a moment, but still did as she asked and walked out. He would turn back to look at her every few steps.
Mu Run was getting irritated by his gaze. "Get out of here!"
Fu Yunchen went out the door.
Seeing Zhong Jiu standing in the pavilion, I walked over.
Zhong Jiu immediately tensed up... Could it be that she suffered a setback with the princess and is taking it out on him?
Fu Yunchen entered the pavilion, waved to Zhong Jiu who was kneeling, and told him to get up. Then he sat down on the stone bench and said, "Tell me what you and the princess have experienced on this journey."
Zhong Jiu thought for a moment, "The princess is just asking about the king."
"You're asking about me?" Fu Yunchen's eyes lit up. "What did you say?"
Zhong Jiu replied, "It is simply telling the truth. His Majesty is very generous and kind to his subordinates. As long as they are loyal, he will forgive their mistakes. He will not get involved in any romantic entanglements. No woman has ever tried to kill herself for His Majesty. He has never been disloyal to the Queen and dotes on his two young masters..."
Fu Yunchen listened with great satisfaction and nodded repeatedly.
"To enemies, eliminate them completely, leaving no future trouble. Those who betray their leader, though they may travel a thousand miles, will be exacted upon with vengeance."
Fu Yunchen frowned slightly; this didn't seem like a nice thing to say.
