Tai Banxue was very proud: "He is not a Jianghu person, he is..."
I almost said that he was someone working for the Prime Minister's Mansion...
She shut up in time, sat up straight, and let the maid apply medicine on her.
While I was still wiping the wound, I heard a cough coming from outside.
The maid and Tai Banxue both looked outside in surprise, but saw no one standing there. The maid looked curiously, "Who?"
Unexpectedly, a figure passed by the window, appeared behind the maid, and hit her with a palm.
The maid fainted, and Tai Banxue stood up in shock, her eyes wide open: "Prince, you are a noble now, no longer the flower thief you used to be. You can enter the Tai Mansion openly, and you don't need to climb through the window to come to my place!"
Tai Banxue was clearly furious, but Shao Lecheng scoffed, "Aren't you so weak you need someone to help you walk? You helped me fight off a woman behind me, and then you fell to the ground. But now I see you're full of energy."
Tai Banxue glared at him. "You, now that you know, I should have respected the prince. But, prince, you kidnapped me and imprisoned me, and blamed me for the disappearance of the princess. And you haven't apologized yet?"
"This matter has nothing to do with me, but you have implicated me. If the princess and I really have a dispute in the future, won't you strangle me to death on the spot? So go away and take the betrothal gifts you brought with you!"
Seeing Tai Banxue's arrogant expression and her disdain to even look at him, how could she be willing to marry him?
Shao Lecheng was not sad or angry at all. Instead, he sat down aside.
"Do you think you can disobey the imperial decree for marriage? Can your Tai family afford it?"
Tai Banxue was stunned for a moment, then asked sarcastically, "So the prince is not going to disobey because he's thinking about the Tai family?"
Shao Lecheng picked up the water on the table, drank it, and slowly explained: "Of course not. What does the life and death of your Tai family have to do with me? The Queen Mother has granted us a marriage, and we have no right to refuse. But we can use many methods to make the imperial decree have no effect!"
Tai Banxue was a little stunned: "I don't know what you are talking about?"
Shao Lecheng chuckled: "Aren't you pretending to be crazy today? Then I'll give you a chance. You pretend to be crazy, then you have a high fever that won't go away, and you'll be so weak that you're almost dying, and then you'll become dead."
Tai Banxue looked at Shao Lecheng in surprise, as if she was looking at a madman.
"Are you kidding me? Let me die? Prince, are you crazy?"
"When did I ever say that I wanted you to really die? I told you to pretend to be dead, understand?"
Tai Banxue frowned, not knowing whether Shao Lecheng was reliable or not.
Under Tai Banxue's gaze, Shao Lecheng smiled. "Among the betrothal gifts I've given you, there's a piece of fine red silk with a jade house on it. You can take it and place it in your room. Place the red silk next to your bed. The next day, I guarantee you'll look like a dying man."
"Why are you helping me?" Tai Banxue looked at Shao Lecheng hesitantly, with suspicion towards him.
"Because I have no interest in you at all, and I feel sick just looking at you. Is this reason enough?" Shao Lecheng didn't give any face at all, and opened his mouth with extremely vicious words.
Tai Banxue's face turned pale, and she snorted, "Okay, I believe you. You really hate me and don't want to marry me!"
"But what secret lies within that red silk you mentioned? What if I really die because of it? Wouldn't that mean I've been tricked by you?"
Shao Lecheng sighed with a headache, "Then you should ask the doctor to find out what secrets are hidden in the red silk. It would be best if your father and grandfather knew everything. Then you will be unwilling to marry me as a concubine!"
"You!" Tai Banxue glared at Shao Lecheng, wanting to curse, but ultimately held back: "Okay, I believe you, but I'll try again after tomorrow!"
Shao Lecheng said with a very serious expression: "The Prime Minister will be interrogated tomorrow, so you must be seriously ill today."
Tai Banxue frowned and looked at Shao Lecheng: "No, I still need to go there to testify tomorrow!"
"Either you really die, or you die tonight. It's your choice!" Shao Lecheng didn't want to say anything more to her, so he turned around and walked out.
But when he thought about coming here, he climbed through the window and left from the window.
Tai Banxue looked at his leaving figure with a complicated expression. She didn't want to get married, and he didn't want to marry her. So she had to either die tonight or get sick tonight?
