Chapter 139: Your brain is no match for His Highness
What is restoration? How come I don’t know?
[Damn it, Princess, you're secretly growing up without telling us! !]
[Even with my eyes wide open, I still couldn't tell Ming Xi was going to restore his country!]
I remember that in the original story, after Ming Xi recognized her as his master, he stayed by the heroine's side for a long time, protecting her. His main purpose was to create an ambiguous relationship and foster their relationship, but he was eventually driven away by the hero. He only appeared later when the heroine was in danger, silently offering his services and secretly feeling sad... He actually wanted to restore his country?! !
Perhaps Ming Xi herself wanted to restore her country? I remember the original plot mentioned, "He was willing to give up everything to stay by her side and become her loyal servant." The only thing he wouldn't give up is restoration, right?
"Restoring the country is only natural. Mingxi is pure-blooded, so she must be from the Jiao Kingdom's royal family. All her people have become slaves and black market playthings. It's only right for Mingxi to restore the country!"
[No wonder this guy has always wanted to claim the princess as his master. So this is his plan!! He wants to claim the princess as his master, seduce her, and make her his mistress...ah, his servant, so that she can be used by him?]
[You are my God, you can come up with all kinds of crazy words, hahahahaha]
Lin Zhaoyue had never seen the information in the subtitles that Mingxi wanted to restore the country.
They don't seem to know.
But she could see it in Mingxi's eyes.
Those eyes that seemed to be seeking favor clearly concealed deep ambitions and hatred.
Moreover, he almost never mentioned the demise of the Jiao Kingdom in front of her, nor did he mention the affairs of his tribe.
But originally she was just guessing.
Only after seeing his reaction did I realize this.
"I don't want to be your master and servant because your master-servant contract implies a dependent relationship. You and I are not of the same race, so naturally I don't want to tie you down." She looked at him and continued, "So, do you have a way to end the master-servant relationship?"
But Mingxi said, "Why can't I? Mu Yingfengmian and His Highness are clearly master and servant."
Lin Zhaoyue raised the corner of her mouth slightly. "Because even though we are master and servant, they have always been independent people. Even if one day I am gone, they can still live well."
This is the biggest difference between Mingxi and them.
She can take servants.
But not in this way.
She didn't want to tie herself up with her own life.
Mu Ying and Feng Mian, who had just finished their work not far away, stopped in their tracks when they heard this.
They didn't come any closer.
Mu Ying opened her mouth, but in the end her eyes turned red.
Feng Mian tightened his grip on the knife.
And the words "I am no longer here" made them both feel a pang in their hearts.
There was a hint of fear in his expression.
When Mingxi heard this, her eyes were filled with water color, and her tightly pursed lips seemed to be controlling her emotions. She was so stubborn that it made people feel pity for her.
She looked at him, "Today, I'll make things clear with you. Once you've made up your mind, come back to me. If you really want to be a servant by my side like this... then you'll need to be valuable too. You should know that even if I don't hate you now, you're just a dispensable person to me."
Ming Xi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and the shadow of his eyes hid his emotions at the moment.
After Lin Zhaoyue finished speaking, she turned around and continued walking forward.
Seeing this, Mu Ying hurriedly followed.
"Your Highness, I am here to serve you!" Mu Ying's feet moved so fast that she caught up with Lin Zhaoyue in a few steps and took Mingxi's place.
Feng Mian slowly walked to Ming Xi's side.
"You don't need to use your brain in front of His Highness. You can't beat His Highness with your brain." His voice was cold, but also contained a hint of warning.
"Our princess has always been very kind, so if you treat her badly, I will kill you."
After leaving these words, Feng Mian walked away with big strides.
After they left, Mingxi collapsed to the ground.
There was also a hint of dejection in his expression.
[My heart aches. Ming Xi doesn't really want to take advantage of the princess, does he?]
[But he carries the hatred of his family and country, and the princess will not let such a person stay by her side so comfortably.]
[This is the powerful princess who can make the second male lead sit firmly on the throne of the crown prince. Both her broad mind and scheming are admirable.]
[Don't mention this ungrateful person, he's already dirty]
Mingxi, think about it carefully. Although I have also been attracted to you and the princess, I also have a princess brain. I stand on the princess' side. Sob ...
[Speaking of which, Ming Xi is pretty miserable... After all, his beauty is the only thing he has left, right? That's why he wants to use it to achieve his goals...]
The Mansion of Marquis Xuanping in the capital.
Under the pear tree, a man in white brocade clothes was playing chess with Lu Chenzhou.
The man was unparalleled in his handsomeness, his every gesture evoking the grace of a gentle breeze and a bright moon. He was like the morning dew on the mountains illuminated by the first rays of the sun, clear yet a touch cold, yet bright and untainted by dust.
In terms of appearance, he is not as handsome as Lu Chenzhou, but his completely different temperament and extraordinary appearance give him a kind of independent character.
"Your Highness, this is a heroic act, cutting off one's own arm." He slowly placed a piece down, his voice so cool.
Lu Chenzhou's gaze fell on the chessboard, his calm tone cold and cruel: "It's already a dead chess piece, why bother to save it?"
The man held the black piece with his fingertips, but did not let it go.
"It's too late to come down now. Otherwise, maybe I could have saved this chess piece."
Lu Chenzhou shook his head. "If she wants Concubine Chun dead, then Concubine Chun must die. Even if you came earlier, you might not be able to save her. Not to mention, Xiao Tingye is involved."
The man in white raised his eyes, a little surprised, "It seems that the prince doesn't want to save his aunt either."
"She wanted to kill Yue'er, so if she dies, then she dies." The words were so light and casual, yet so cruel and terrifying.
There was a hint of coldness in the man's tone, "Your Highness, young men and women's love is not a good thing."
Lu Chenzhou's eyes were as dark as ink, with indescribable emotions surging in his eyes.
His slender fingers clenched the chess piece in his hand, his voice low and hoarse: "You don't understand..." The chess piece shattered in his hand, and a hint of paranoia flashed in Shen's eyes, "This shouldn't be like this."
The man in white looked at him quietly for a while.
"Your Highness should now think carefully about how to break the impasse."
"Princess Zhaohua is not someone you should be thinking about right now."
Lu Chenzhou looked at him and said, "You only need to do what you should do, instead of teaching me what to do."
"Next, I will tell you what will happen in the future, you just need to remember it."
"It's just..." He paused and whispered, "Not everything will be like this..."
The man in white gently twisted the chess piece in his hand, with a hint of surprise and deep thought in his eyes.
