"Your Highness, this, a thousand taels of gold is not a small amount, and the matter is too sudden, I'm afraid I can't handle it all at once..."
Lin Qianqiu looked very troubled, thinking: If only you had a bit of a gentleman's deanour...
"Feng Xuan, if the Minister Mansion lacks cash, feel free to take away any valuable things."
"Yes, Master."
Lin Qianqiu: "???
Completely stunned and unbelieving of what he heard.
This is a living robber! Bandit behavior!
But he dared not say a word in anger.
Ever since the incident with Consort Lan, the emperor's attitude towards King Qin has been...
But his military achievents were illustrious, and his prestige among the people and the army was extrely high. If one wished to act against him, it must be done in secret, never openly.
Since the incident at Cloud Mountain a year ago, he beca disabled, relinquished military power, and lived secluded in the Capital City. His temperant beca increasingly eccentric and unpredictable, with erratic moods, wild and unruly, extrely arrogant and domineering!
"Minister Lin, please go ahead."
Feng Xuan was tall, standing in front of Lin Qianqiu, blocking his sunlight, and the shadow in Lin Qianqiu's heart also slowly expanded.
"Your Highness..."
Lin Yanran suddenly ran to Nangong Mo's side, grabbing his sleeve, looking miserable, crying like pear blossoms with rain.
"Does your Highness believe the nonsensical words of my sister? Why don't you trust Yanran? Are you blaming ? But I never expected my sister to act that way."
When emotions reached their peak, Lin Yanran couldn't help but sob softly.
Nangong Mo frowned, a trace of cold light flashing in his eyes, coldly shaking off Lin Yanran, raising his hand to pat the sleeve she had grabbed.
His actions made Lin Yanran's face turn pale, and then a sea of red arose, a mont of sha and anger.
Yet his thin and cold voice ca without any warmth.
"Miss Lin, have so self-respect."
Lin Yanran's body shook, her nails digging into her palms, filled with imasurable humiliation.
"Also, Minister Lin is not dead yet, why are you in such a hurry to cry?"
Lin Yanran seed unable to endure such humiliation anymore, covering her face with her sleeve, crying as she ran away.
Lin Qianqiu witnessed the whole process, his face turning livid with suppressed anger, "Your Highness, Prince Qin, I take my leave!"
Feng Xuan appeared by his side like a shadow, glancing down at him, "Mr. Lin, let's get going."
"..."
The muscles on Lin Qianqiu's face twitched, he said nothing, and just walked away. Bandit! Robber! Vulgar!
Yun Ran tactfully stepped forward, waved to the onlooking crowd, smiling brightly like the wind, gentle and friendly, "Everyone disperse, please, disperse."
In less than half a day, the news that Miss Lin beca Princess Qin and was favored in the royal residence spread rapidly, sweeping across the entire Capital City.
For a while, many envied her, countless won's hearts were broken, their tears wetting their handkerchiefs: cursing fate for being unkind, why was the person in King Qin's heart not them?
At this mont, Yun Ran, already 'famous throughout the Capital City', was pushing Nangong Mo towards the inner courtyard, her mood rather complicated.
[Bird, why isn't he saying a word? Is he holding back sothing big?]
[The heart of a man is like a needle at the bottom of the sea, never guess his thoughts.]
[Tsk! Do you think I really want to guess? You saw earlier, he was so ruthless to an old lover, let alone to , with a fraudulent marriage hanging over my head...]
"Lin Wanyue."
Yun Ran was suddenly called out, imdiately leaning over, smiling fawningly, "Master, I'm here! What instructions do you have?"
Nangong Mo's lips curled slightly, almost imperceptibly, his voice eerie and cold, "How do you want to die?"
What??
Yun Ran's smile froze, her sycophantic grin stiffened, "Master, are you joking? Or are you serious?"
"What do you think?"
"..."
[What do I think? I think I want to twist off your dog's head, would you like that?]
[You dog! So all of that was an act, just a ploy to regain face, believing the nonsense of Old Lin and the little white flower.]
[Didn't even think, how could soone like , living a life worse than a dog, manage to fool everyone and ride a flower sedan? Truly blinded by lust! What a waste of such a good-looking face.]
"Master, actually, I can understand your feelings. But before I die, there are a few things I want to say to you, as they say, kind words co when death is near, would you like to listen?"
Nangong Mo gave her a subtle look, his lips curving playfully, "Oh? You have last words?"
Yun Ran: "..."
"Perhaps you don't want to accept it, but Lin Yanran has indeed shifted her affections! Not only did she call you a cut sleeve, but she also said you've abducted many good young n, imprisoning them in the mansion, torturing them daily, worse than animals!"
Nangong Mo slowly narrowed his eyes, his gaze dark and profound, "Oh, really?"
"Not only that! She also said you're insidious, shaless, ruthless, and brutal, you even go so far as to slap dogs on the street before leaving!"
Nangong Mo: "..."
"Also, you have a penchant for killing at the slightest disagreent, needing to kill a few people before als for entertainnt. Truly insane!"
Nangong Mo: "..."
[Ranran, are you not attached to this world anymore?]
[Anyway, he's going to kill to silence , isn't he? Can't I say a few more words then?]
[Seems reasonable! Go on, continue dancing madly on the brink of disaster.]
Yun Ran glanced at Nangong Mo and found him handso as ever, calm and composed, without a hint of sadness or anger!
[Huh? Really? Hurt so maliciously by his beloved, and he's not the least bit sad? Is he even human?]
[Maybe he's contemplating how to kill you...]
[Hmph~ as if I'd give him the chance.]
"Master, I've said all I need to say. No need for you to lift a finger, I'll just find a lake outside to drown myself, to calm your anger, ha."
Saying this, Yun Ran was about to let go of the wheelchair and make a run for it.
The next mont, her belt was suddenly yanked.
Yun Ran paused, turned around, and glanced back at the hand, long and jade-like, particularly beautiful in the sunlight, with three black lines sliding down her forehead.
"!!!"
[This shaless dog man! What's he trying to do?]
[He might be trying to molest you...]
[Get lost... He's got a hidden ailnt, not capable of molesting a ghost.]
The next mont, she felt the hand clutching her belt suddenly tighten.
Yun Ran was startled, her heart trembled, "Master, no! Calm down! Calm down, don't be impulsive."
"Heh..."
The man lifted his thin lips slightly, his voice low, charming, and sexy, "Why so nervous? I won't eat you."
[Insidious, shaless dog man! One day, I'll bite you to death, piece by piece!]
"Master, what are you planning to do?"
A voice as gentle as water but with an endless gritting of teeth, Nangong Mo worried she might break her teeth.
The man's eyebrows raised slightly, seemingly in good spirits, "You want to drown in the lake?"
"What? You don't like that way of dying? Then I'll try another, how about crashing into a wall?"
"Too bloody."
"Hanging myself on the southeast branch?"
"The tree is innocent."
"..."
[Even my belt is innocent! How about you let go of your claws!]
"Then, how about I dig a hole and bury myself?"
"Not necessary to go through so much trouble either."
[This isn't okay, that isn't okay, what do you want? Want to see perform breaking a stone on my chest with my bare hands?]
"Ahem..."
Nangong Mo pressed his lips, hiding the fleeting helplessness in his eyes, speaking in a cool and faint tone:
"I heard that Miss Lin in the mansion, unloved by her father and disliked by her stepmother, suffered bullying and hardship, living a life worse than a dog."
Yun Ran: "..."
"Now, she's been coerced and deceived into the bridal sedan, leaping into a pit of fire, marrying a blind, crippled, short-lived man like . Truly a little pitiful of the world."
Yun Ran: "..."
For a mont, she was speechless... Wait, does he actually believe what she said?
"If she's sent back to the mansion now, she'll probably have her legs broken, be poisoned mute, locked in the woodshed, and starved for three days and nine als."
Yun Ran: "..."
[You're the one to be poisoned mute! You're the one to starve three days and nine als! Insidious, shaless dog man! Can't you say a thing a person would say?]
[Really want to stomp you to death! Afraid you'd go berserk and drag my belt to perish together... Alas, I'm in such a difficult situation!!]
Yun Ran took a deep breath, trying to make her voice sound gentler, "Then what exactly do you want? What will it take for you to let go?"
