These bold, unrestrained and shameful words resounded throughout the palace gate. Not only were the passers-by stunned, but even the Ninth Prince was stunned.
Even Liu Sheng would have been fooled by her if he hadn't just heard her complaints.
But even though he knew she was acting, Liu Sheng couldn't help but sigh sincerely: She is so open-minded that she can say such words. She is flexible and can bend and stretch. She is quite a character.
Liu Sheng watched her acting from a distance, with a malicious smile on his face.
At this time, the Ninth Prince Nangong Muyun probably still thought that Ye Qingwan was in love with him.
But what on earth did Ye Qingwan want to do? She clearly didn't like Nangong Muyun, but she wanted to act like she wanted to marry him, and she even made it known to everyone?
Born to shout out such bold words as "Take me" in the street, she can really humiliate herself.
What's the point?
Could this be the content of her so-called novel?
That's how the novel goes. She needs to restore the plot of the novel, so she's acting?
Thinking of this, Liu Sheng became more and more curious about what kind of fictional world he was living in and what role he played in this novel.
How will this huge court power develop?
It's really curious.
He no longer wanted to expose Ye Qingwan, but was like a spectator, eagerly waiting for Ye Qingwan to update the plot.
Facing Ye Qingwan who offered herself voluntarily in public, Nangong Muyun was dumbfounded, and quickly pulled away her hands that were hugging his legs: "How dare you."
The tone was reprimanding.
Ye Qingwan almost laughed out loud when she saw his chaste expression.
Look, this is the male protagonist, cold, handsome, misogynistic, and allergic to any woman except the female protagonist.
This is the state we want, maintain it.
Ye Qingwan encouraged him in her heart.
"Brother Mu Yun, Wan'er really likes you, please..."
As he said this, he began to untie his belt, muttering as he went along, "Why hasn't the heroine come yet?"
I have taken off all my clothes, if you don't come now I won't be able to finish this?
Just as she was about to lift the mask of pain, a clear voice like a silver bell came from outside.
"My Lord, am I late?"
Then a woman in plain clothes opened the curtain and walked in. She was even more plain than the second-class maid in the prime minister's mansion. But it was hard to hide her beauty. Her face was timid, like an abandoned kitten, and I felt pity for her.
When Ye Qingwan saw her, she felt like she had seen Guanyin Bodhisattva and was so happy that she almost cried.
Heroine, you are finally here. If you don’t come, I will take off all my clothes.
But on the surface he had to pretend to be angry and embarrassed because his good thing had been ruined.
"Who are you and why are you getting on my brother Mu Yun's carriage?"
"Xia Xuejian, the third young lady of the Xia family, is my future princess consort."
princess?
Because the carriage curtain was lifted, everyone could see the scene clearly.
They looked at each other, and then turned their heads to look at the Prime Minister who had just come out of the court.
Even the colleagues who came out with the Prime Minister couldn't help but secretly take two steps back and distance themselves from the Prime Minister.
Ye Qingwan is the only daughter of the Prime Minister, and the Prime Minister intends to marry his daughter to the Ninth Prince. Now that the Ninth Prince is acting like this, isn't he deliberately embarrassing the Prime Minister?
Only Liu Sheng took out a handful of peanuts from his pocket. It would have been even better if there was some wine.
There was an extra Ninth Prince Consort? The Ninth Prince was clearly going against the Prime Minister. How could a powerless prince embarrass the powerful Prime Minister in public?
interesting.
As expected, the corner of the Prime Minister's mouth twitched, and he looked at Nangong Muyun with three parts amusement, three parts indifference, and four parts sarcasm, and his voice turned up.
"Ninth Prince, you are so impressive."
The temperature at the scene dropped to zero at one point. Master Shi was so scared that his face turned pale and he apologized hurriedly.
"Master Xiang, Miss Ye, please don't be angry. There must be some misunderstanding."
Ye Qingwan quickly looked at her father with grievance, crying in the street with disheveled clothes and dishevelled hair: "Daddy, you have to make the decision for your daughter."
The Prime Minister looked at his precious daughter with heartache and quickly went over to comfort her: "Don't be afraid, Wan'er, Daddy will take care of it for you, you come down first."
Ye Qingwan: ...
Just make the decision. Forget about coming down. I’m still waiting for the Ninth Prince to kick me.
Seeing that she didn't move, the Prime Minister felt a little disappointed. But he still aimed at the others and turned to stare at the Tenth Master fiercely: "Misunderstanding? Then tell me, what is the misunderstanding?"
The Tenth Master opened his mouth to explain, but the incident happened suddenly and he didn't know how to explain. He could only wink at his Ninth Brother and whispered.
"Brother Jiu, what are you standing there for? Explain it quickly."
But Nangong Muyun just glanced at him indifferently, still standing there coldly, without opening his mouth.
Xia Xuejian stood up, and without saying anything, she knelt on the ground with a plop: "My Lord, please forgive me, my Lord, please forgive me. This matter has nothing to do with the Ninth Prince. It is all my fault."
He sobbed as he spoke, tears streaming down his face.
She cried so pitifully that people who didn't know her would have thought she was the one who was broken off.
The way she behaved made the Prime Minister seem like he was being held in a trap, unable to move forward or backward.
If she was held accountable, she might die in front of the palace gate. If the news got out, wouldn't it be that their prime minister was bullying a concubine's daughter of a fifth-rank official?
If he doesn't hold anyone accountable, then his precious daughter will have suffered in vain?
There was a lot of commotion outside. Ye Qingwan seemed to be crying with her head down, but she was actually watching the fun with her feet shaking.
When they had almost finished making a fuss, he quickly adjusted his state, put away his nonchalant attitude in an instant, jumped up, pointed at Xia Xuejian and started cursing.
"Xia Xue, please stop pretending to be pitiful. You are just a concubine's daughter of a fifth-rank official, and you dare to act so rudely in front of me? I think your Xia family doesn't want to live anymore."
After saying that, he pulled the Ninth Prince's sleeve and asked, "Brother Mu Yun, you have been so cold to me these days, is it because of Xia Xuejian?"
"I am the daughter of a prime minister. In terms of family background, appearance, and talent, how can I be inferior to her, the concubine's daughter of a fifth-rank official?"
Seeing that Nangong Muyun was unmoved, she began to show weakness and act pitiful again: "Brother Muyun, I have admired you since I was a child. Everything I think and do is for you. Do you think I haven't done well enough? Tell me and I will change. Brother Muyun..."
As he said this, he pinched his belly hard, causing tears and snot to stream from his eyes in pain. He cried so heartbrokenly and in agony.
The Prime Minister stamped his feet when he saw his daughter lowering herself in such a way, feeling a little disappointed in her.
But I also felt very heartbroken.
His beloved daughter, he himself could not bear to see her shed a tear since she was young.
Nangong Muyun...
How ridiculous! He was born to a palace maid. If my daughter hadn't been devoted to him, he wouldn't even be able to enter the gate of the prime minister's residence, let alone want to support him to become the crown prince.
Nangong Muyun looked down at Ye Qingwan who had been pulling at his sleeve and crying, with a complicated look in his eyes: "I didn't say you were bad."
"So do you like me?"
"For now... I don't like it."
Before she could finish her words, Ye Qingwan started crying again, "I'm still not good enough. I'm not worthy of Brother Mu Yun..."
The image of the bootlicker is portrayed vividly.
The corner of Liu Sheng's mouth twitched. Even though he knew the plot in advance, he was almost moved by her affection.
This woman... can really act!
He began to doubt his life. Could it be that all the beautiful girls around him were also acting?
Ye Qingwan kept crying, waiting for the Ninth Prince to kick her off the carriage, and then take Xia Xuejian away, and then advance the new plot.
But no matter how long she waited, the damn Ninth Prince didn't move.
Why don't you move a little?
Ye Qingwan was angry.
"Miss Ye, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you and the Ninth Prince wouldn't have quarreled. I'm leaving now." Xia Xuejian suddenly spoke.
When Ye Qingwan heard this, she immediately became alert.
Miss Xia is worthy of being the heroine and she pushed the plot forward in a timely manner.
As expected, men are unreliable.
Ye Qingwan glared at her fiercely: "Xia Xuejian, you are right. It's all because of you that Brother Mu Yun doesn't like me. I will kill you."
After saying that, he drew out the Ninth Prince's sword and stabbed forward.
