Chapter 91 Why take your clothes off so quickly!
Chapter 91 Why take your clothes off so quickly!
His Highness the King of Qin glanced at her and spoke coldly.
"It's just 100,000 taels? I can afford it."
Su Mowan immediately smiled broadly: "Of course you can afford it. There's no time to lose, I'll go to the accounting office to collect it tomorrow morning."
"I am not leaving tonight."
"Fine, then we won't leave... What?!"
Su Mowan was delighted to have just swindled another sum of money, but Murong Jing's words suddenly made her smile vanish.
Murong Jing glanced at her sideways, somewhat impatiently saying, "I won't say it a second time."
Hmm, something doesn't look right.
Su Mowan raised an eyebrow.
"Didn't Consort Shen already go to Fenghua Palace? What's the meaning of you staying here with me?"
Murong Jing was surprised by Su Mowan's unexpected performance. Shouldn't he be overjoyed?
"I can go wherever I want. Just because Shen Muyue is here doesn't mean I have to stay in Fenghua Palace."
Su Mowan didn't care whether he stayed at Fenghua Palace or not. The problem was that Shen Muyue had finally managed to show off a little in front of her, but Murong Jing made it all for nothing.
Wouldn't this just make Shen Muyue hate her even more?
"Your Highness is right, this entire backyard of the Prince's mansion is yours. However, Consort Shen has shown you some enthusiasm. It's not very nice of you to throw cold water on her like this, is it?"
Murong Jing glanced at him coldly, his face showing obvious displeasure.
"Do I need you to tell me where I should spend the night?"
"I wouldn't call it guidance, it's more like a small suggestion from me."
Su Mowan responded with a smile, speaking without any difficulty and appearing very magnanimous.
They were too generous.
Therefore, His Highness the King of Qin was very displeased. How could this woman be so ungrateful?
It's as if he insists on staying at Huangfeng Garden.
But no matter what, His Highness the King of Qin is determined to renege on his promise.
"I will not accept your suggestion."
"..."
Su Mowan didn't intend to say anything too harsh, so she smiled and nodded.
"Fine, if you don't want to accept it, then don't. I'm just curious, Consort Shen has been married into the family for a month now, why are you only letting me go to Fenghua Palace alone?"
How do you know I only sent you?
Murong Jing raised his eyes.
"Of course you don't know this. Every time Consort Shen sees me, she can't wait to grab me a few times. Even a fool would understand what's going on here."
Speaking of this, Su Mowan felt a bit annoyed.
Shen Muyue thought that going to serve the emperor was a wonderful thing, but in reality it was just sleeping in a different place and taking care of undressing.
That's it.
Murong Jing turned his wheelchair around.
"It's good that you understand. I always have my own reasons for doing things."
"Your logic is that you're using me as a pawn?"
Su Mowan almost laughed in anger. It seemed that Shen Muyue was also pitiful, foolishly putting in so much effort, not expecting that Murong Jing had already planned it all out.
Murong Jing remained calm in the face of the somewhat emotional remark about being used as a pawn, and showed no intention of refuting it.
"If you're smart enough, you'll know why I'm doing this. As for whether you'll cooperate or not..."
Murong Jing's deep phoenix eyes swept over: "It's not up to you to decide."
Su Mowan immediately scoffed.
"That's true. Since you need my gun, shouldn't you let me know in advance? Otherwise, I won't know when to make a move and when not to."
It's a collaboration, after all; shouldn't we at least show some sincerity?
His Highness the King of Qin narrowed his eyes.
"I don't need you to take action, I only need your cooperation."
"That's not how you put it, Your Highness. It's not worth it for me to cooperate without any reward. Do you know how petty Shen Muyue is? For example, do you remember what happened on Zhuque Street last time?"
Su Mowan felt she had to make this clear; she couldn't just put in effort for nothing.
Murong Jing merely gave a cold laugh.
He seemed impatient: "You should know when to stop. I just promised to give you 100,000 taels of silver."
Su Mowan refused to continue.
He pointed a slender, bony finger at the wall: "Hey, let's keep things separate. The painting is still hanging on the wall. Are you trying to deny it?"
His Highness the King of Qin seems to be taking this seriously as well.
"This painting is worth 100,000 taels? Do you think I don't know the market price?"
"The market price? You're absolutely right. This is the market price here. If you don't believe me, I'll paint one for the Emperor another day."
"..."
His Highness the King of Qin remained silent.
Clearly, they are assessing the validity of Su Mowan's statement.
Su Mowan crossed her arms triumphantly.
"So, Your Highness, do you feel like you've gotten a tremendous advantage?"
"..."
His Highness the King of Qin turned his wheelchair around.
Su Mowan thought he was leaving, so she quickly said, "Your Highness, please take care. Please take your 100,000 taels with you."
As he spoke, he was about to take down the 'demon-like Murong Jing' hanging on the wall.
To everyone's surprise, Murong Jing said, "Who said I was leaving? I just don't want to listen to your nonsense. I'm going to sleep now."
"..."
Damn it.
Pretty arrogant, huh?
You're very comfortable with it.
How arrogant!
Su Mowan suppressed her temper and snorted, then shouted to Qinghe outside the door, "Qinghe, bring the water!"
Qinghe, who was eavesdropping through the crack in the door, shuddered, thinking she had been discovered. She immediately stammered, "I'll be right there!"
Then, patting his throbbing chest, he went to the kitchen.
Just as she reached the outside of the kitchen, she saw Yinshuang walking in from outside Huangfeng Garden, and Qinghe quickly called out to her.
Confused, Yinshuang walked towards Qinghe.
Before anyone could reach her, Qinghe leaned in mysteriously and said, "Hey, let me tell you, the Prince is staying at our Huangfeng Garden tonight."
Yinshuang raised an eyebrow: "Is that all?"
"Of course, that's not all!"
Qinghe leaned closer and whispered, "I heard it all outside the door. The prince seemed to dislike Consort Shen very much and said that he would never let Consort Shen serve him in bed again!"
Qinghe thought the news was explosive enough, but unfortunately Yinshuang didn't give her a satisfactory response.
"Didn't I tell you before that you don't need to worry about Consort Shen taking advantage of your vulnerability?"
Qinghe's eyes widened in disbelief: "You...you mean this?! So you knew all along!"
Yinshuang remained expressionless.
"Don't be so alarmed. There are some things you may know, but you can't just say them."
Qinghe pouted: "I'm only telling you this, I definitely can't tell anyone else."
Su Mowan sat in her chair and clicked her tongue twice. Murong Jing had made a brilliant move.
The Left Prime Minister is on Consort Xiao's side, while Su Yuandao is neutral.
Murong Jing's neglect of Shen Muyue created the illusion that he favored Su Mowan, which was intended to make Shen Muyue dissatisfied with the General's Mansion and indirectly pull the General's Mansion to his side.
Even if she is just a concubine's daughter, the General's Mansion will not ignore her on the surface.
So, in the future, if Shen Muyue provokes her, she doesn't need to be polite to Shen Muyue anymore?
Su Mowan snapped her fingers in satisfaction, then got up and walked towards the inner bedroom.
However, the smile on her face froze as she entered the bedroom.
Her eyes widened, and she tried to cover them with her hands.
"Your Highness, why are you undressing so quickly? You should at least have given me a heads-up!"
