"The women in Bei'an are all tough, but none of them are stupid enough to commit suicide."
Ah Man was very dissatisfied, extremely dissatisfied. She glared at Murong Kai hatefully and spoke word by word.
"Well, are you surrendering?" Murong Kai was obviously proud of Ah Man's surrender, but he was trying hard to control his arrogance.
Ah Man did not answer. She could give in in her heart, but she was unwilling to do so. It seemed that if she agreed, she would feel inferior in front of Murong Kai.
"If you avenge me, maybe you can get your wish of entering the palace." Murong Kai spoke again, successfully making Ah Man's eyes brighten.
"What did you say? Explain it to me clearly." Ah Man looked at Murong Kai with a burning gaze, as if he could stare a hole into Murong Kai at any time.
"You will also achieve your goal when you avenge me."
Murong Kai was happy to answer Ah Man's questions, so his words were tempting, like a fox trying to trick people.
"Do you know my purpose?" Ah Man was a little surprised. He and Murong Kai had only known each other for one day, but he actually knew his background
"Princess Jinxiu and your cousin Chu Nanfeng have been childhood sweethearts. You came to the Great Zhou to stop her from marrying a foreign prince." Murong Kai's voice was soft but firm.
"Tonight, my father will host a banquet to entertain the envoys from Bei'an. As for your sister Jinxiu, she will be made a concubine."
"If you want to stop it, you can only cause trouble at the banquet, and revenge for me seems to be a good reason."
"This is the only reason that will prevent you from being charged with undermining the diplomatic relations between the two countries."
Every word he spoke was candid and confident, and everywhere he spoke seemed to be thinking about Ah Man, if we ignore his original motives.
Of course, Ah Man would not forget his original intention, so when he heard his shameless words, Ah Man would only think that this person had a black heart and was so calculating that he really deserved the praise of a young talent.
But Ah Man had to admit that Murong Kai had the ability to manipulate people's hearts. Even though she knew he had ulterior motives, she had no choice but to agree because it was a shortcut.
"Ah Man." Murong Kai suddenly spoke. The young man's voice was clear and a little deep, which was very pleasant to hear. Ah Man looked up at him and heard him ask solemnly: "For a cousin who dares not even enter the palace, for your beautiful sister, is it worth it to go through such a huge disaster?"
"Of course it's worth it. Sister Jinxiu is the best person to me, and my cousin is also good to me."
Ah Man's words were powerful and there seemed to be light reflected in his eyes.
"I hope you don't regret it." In fact, Murong Kai had already expected this answer, but after hearing her words, he still couldn't help but sigh, and there was a little more pity in his eyes when he looked at Ah Man.
"Why are you sighing?"
It should be a happy thing that the two of them reached a consensus, but Murong Kai's sigh made her feel a little more uncertain.
"In the evening, Concubine Dong will accompany father to a palace banquet. Tell me what you need and I will prepare it for you." Murong Kai did not answer Ah Man's words. He suddenly mentioned the palace banquet in the evening and his enemy, but his evasive look made it seem like he was trying hard to change the subject.
"Why is Concubine Dong targeting you?" Upon hearing the name Concubine Dong, Ah Man's face was filled with shock. She was a legend in the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty. She had been in great favor for more than ten years, and even the queen had to avoid her.
The fourth prince born to Concubine Dong is the most beloved child of the Emperor of the Great Zhou. It is said that the Emperor of the Great Zhou personally taught him riding and archery.
According to legend, Concubine Dong was gentle and kind-hearted, and she was so kind that she wouldn't even step on an ant to death.
"What do you think?"
Ah Man smiled awkwardly. The safety of the prince's life was always closely related to his power. But Concubine Dong wanted to kill even the prince. I'm afraid she had already become arrogant and lawless because of her favor.
