Chapter 102: Engagement Token

Zi'an was speechless. A dead person suddenly appeared in front of everyone. Even without being bandaged, he looked so majestic and scary.

Xiao Tuo secretly looked at Zi'an, then at Murong Jie, "What are you looking at? Xia Zi'an, are you worried about the prince?"

Zi'an quickly turned his head away, "He is my patient. I am worried about my patient. Is there anything wrong with him? Let's prepare dinner."

Xiao Tuo stared at her blankly, "You're blushing? Why are you blushing?"

Su Qing brought in the dishes and said to Xiao Tuo, "Alright, you don't understand this, why are you asking so many questions? Let's eat."

Xiao Tuo was extremely surprised, "You understand? Then tell me."

Su Qing said unhappily, "Let's eat."

Zi'an went out quickly, not daring to even look at Murong Jie. After she went out, she regretted her cowardice. After all, she was from the modern era, and she felt embarrassed when Xiao Tuo said a few words to her. Was it necessary to be so pretentious

He said that she was really worried about Murong Jie? Even if she was worried, wasn't that normal? She almost lost her life in order to save him.

Xiao Tuo asked Murong Jie, "This Xia Zian is very strange, don't you think?"

Murong Jie said lazily: "I don't know, but it's you who seems particularly strange these two days."

Xiao Tuo was startled again, "I'm weird? Am I weird?"

"After things calm down, go meet Miss Chen." The Regent stretched out his long legs and stood up.

Xiao Tuo's face turned green, "Don't even think about it."

Even though Miss Chen was the most terrifying woman in the world, he would never go to see her even if he was beaten to death. An old woman who was still unmarried at the age of 20 must have a mental disorder.

While eating, the topic still revolved around Miss Chen. Xiao Tuo could hardly eat and had a gloomy face the whole time.

When cleaning up the dishes after dinner, Murong Jie asked Su Qing to clean up and then left Zi'an to talk.

When Xiao Tuo saw that Murong Jie had left Zi'an behind, he also sat down, looking at Murong Jie, waiting for him to speak.

Murong Jieman glanced at him and asked, "Do you have anything else to say, old man?"

Xiao Tuo looked at Zi'an, and the idiot finally understood that Murong Jie wanted to keep Zi'an to talk, rather than asking him to join the conversation.

He stood up and said, "Okay, I'm fine, can't I go out?"

After saying that, he walked out angrily. Su Qing saw that he was angry and asked, "What's wrong?"

"They are telling secrets and not letting me hear them." Xiao Tuo said.

Su Qing looked at him pitifully, "You are indeed going to meet Miss Chen."

Xiao Tuo punched him and shouted angrily: "You still want to talk?"

Inside the room, Zi'an sat down and looked at Murong Jie with a silent expression. She already knew that he was going to take risks tonight and she couldn't remain calm because his injuries hadn't healed yet and he couldn't even ride a horse.

Of course, she would not be so naive as to think that she was just returning to the palace.

Everything will be fine if we return to the palace, but is the way back to the palace really that easy

However, she knew that she couldn't stop them, because they chose to return to Beijing tonight, which must be due to an emergency.

The four days here were the most comfortable four days she had spent since she came to the ancient times. She was away from all the disputes and conspiracies, and every day she only had to worry about what to eat tonight.

How she wished that the days could stay here and remain unchanged forever.

"Zi'an!" Murong Jie looked at her, the coldness in his eyes faded away, replaced by an incomparable peace.

"Here!" Zi'an replied softly, trying not to look into his eyes. Even though he seemed so peaceful and approachable, after tonight, he would turn back into the almighty regent.

She couldn't let herself adapt to the man in front of her, otherwise she would be disappointed in the future.

"Tonight, you will return to the palace with me. There may be some dangers along the way, but I will do my best to protect you. After returning to the palace, if everything goes well, I will announce your marriage tonight."

Zi'an raised his eyes and looked at him, the scars on his face became more obvious due to the congestion, "Prince, marrying me is..." She really wanted to ask whether it was because of the Queen Mother's decree or because he felt that she still had some redeeming qualities

However, she couldn't ask, and swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue. "It was the Queen Mother's idea to marry me, and you can object to it."

"Reasons for your objection?" Murong Jie asked calmly. The peaceful look in his eyes had disappeared, and a dangerous blue light gradually appeared.

"You can tell the Queen Mother that Xia Zian will never be able to have children, has a bad reputation, and is not proficient in any of the arts..."

"I am telling you the reasons for your opposition." Murong Jie interrupted her.

She was slightly startled, "Why am I objecting?"

"You don't agree to marry me, right? What's the reason for your objection?" Murong Jie asked.

Zi'an shook his head, "No, no, I just know myself."

Also, she didn't want to be involved in the struggle for imperial power. Once she married the Regent and became the Regent Princess, it would mean that many eyes would be staring at her, and she didn't want that.

Murong Jie stared at her, his eyes blazing with fire, "The Xia Zian I know is a stubborn and stubborn person with a hard and bad temper. He is ruthless and will never belittle himself. You are not the Xia Zian I know."

Zi'an's expression changed slightly. This stubbornness was understandable, but his ruthlessness... What did he mean

Murong Jie seemed to be able to see into her heart, and said calmly: "You killed Ah Fa, didn't you?"

Zi'an was shocked. How could he know? He was not in the palace when Ah Fa was killed. He had gone out with Ni Rong that night.

Zi'an was horrified. As a regent of the current dynasty, no matter how kind he was, he could not tolerate someone killing people in the harem and challenging his authority, especially since he had nothing to do with the word "kindness" at all.

Murong Jie reached out his hand and gently stroked the scars on her face. His rough fingers felt stinging on her skin. Zi'an's heart trembled slightly. He could not feel any tenderness, only unspeakable fear and threat. His voice was as cold as the air coming off the snow. "I will never be soft-hearted to those who hurt me. You are qualified to be the regent princess. From now on, you will stand by my side."

Zi'an thought he was going to say something threatening, but he didn't expect him to say it like this.

"I killed someone." Zi'an felt a little sour in his nose.

"I have killed many more people than you." Murong Jie took back his hand, his eyes still cold, "But if you don't kill, others will come to kill you."

"I will have to kill someone more later." Zi'an thought of the original owner's death. No matter what, she had to avenge the original owner.

Since she has replaced the original owner and is still alive, she must do everything she can to avenge her life.

"If you have the guts, then go ahead and kill me." Murong Jie took out a dagger and handed it to her. "This dagger was given to me by my father. It is made of black iron and is extremely sharp. I am giving it to you as a token of our engagement."

Zi'an sniffed and took the dagger. "When people give engagement tokens, they usually give gold, silver, and jewelry. Who would give a dagger?"

"If you don't want it, take it back!" Murong Jie reached out to grab it.

Zi'an suddenly reached out and hugged him, burying his head in his chest, "There is no reason to take back what you have given away."
