Peasant Princess and Hen-pecked Prince - C252
Wanqing never thought that she, as a princess, would actually think of this idea to make things difficult for him.
After all, she was a princess who had grown up in the Imperial Palace. How could she possibly know what had happened to her?
If it was under normal circumstances Wanqing who was born and raised in the countryside, Zhao Lin would naturally put forward this condition today and make it difficult for her.
But who was he? She was a high-minded soul from the 21st century with five thousand years of history on her body. How could she be frightened by this princess’ suggestion? Instead, she was eager to give it a try because of the conditions offered by the princess.
If he could use this opportunity to increase his visibility and pave a path for Wanyang, why not?
How could he not accept such a good promotional condition?
However, while Wanqing thought this way, the other people from the Duke Liang Palace thought differently.
After all, none of these people truly understood her, and even Mo Yichen was a little worried.
However, the little guy also knew that if this matter wasn’t resolved properly, his elder sister might be bullied by her brother-in-law in the future.
In order to not let Wanqing make a fool of herself, Mo Yichen looked at the order coldly. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Princess Li’s voice.
“It’s truly funny. Since you, as a princess, already know our granddaughter’s experience, why must you do this? Do you think that by doing this, you will be able to redeem your impression of the Morning King? ”
Princess Li’s words had truly touched Zhan Ling’s heart, but even if he was thinking like this right now, she would still not admit it. Instead, he looked at Wanqing without giving him a single one.
“Don’t tell me you don’t dare? If you do not dare, just admit to me right now that I, this princess, will not say anything. ”
Wanqing raised her eyebrows, suppressing the Mo Yichen who wanted to speak, “Alright, since it’s like this, I will accept your challenge, but since it’s a written test, let’s set it as the prize, if you don’t raise your head, it will be boring.”
“Fine, since you dare to accept, then tell me, what kind of bet do you want?” Zhan Ling’s victory was in his heart, and the words he spoke carried a tone of superiority. Wanyang was extremely angry, and almost wanted to argue with this unreasonable big sister.
Luo Chenghao stood at the side. For a young age, he had an age that didn’t match his current age written on his face, and his heart was not thinking about the competition between the two women, but about the life that Wanqing would have to live once she reaches Prince Chen’s Mansion.
When he was young, he experienced a lot of things, so he naturally thought of many things. Now, he was even more worried for Wanqing.
As a man, Prince Li could not say much. However, as the owner of the Etiquette Duke Palace, he was extremely annoyed by the way Zhan Ling had provoked them. First of all, the guests before him had been entertained by Li Kang, his son, and the female customers had also been entertained by the Princess Li.
“Wanyang, let’s go. Grandfather will bring you guys to the backyard to study. There’s nothing to see here.”
Wanyang initially did not want to leave, but upon hearing what the Prince Li said, Wanqing turned around and nodded to him, “Go, big sister is fine.”
Wanyang shook his head, “Big sister, little brother wants to stay with big sister. Since little brother is fine now, little brother will naturally go and learn.”
Luo Chenghao also shook his head, “Miss, I was worried about you, so I didn’t want to leave.”
Wanqing knew how much the two of them loved him and nodded, “Alright, then you two can stay here. Grandfather, if you feel tired, you can go back and rest.
Prince Li nodded and turned to look at Li Kang and Princess Li, “Both of you protect Wanqing well, I will go back and rest first.”
The Princess Li nodded his head. After Li Kang bowed towards the Prince Li, he turned around and walked towards the adults who were watching the show. He told them not to go and watch the show, but to practice their ability to respond to these kinds of things.
As expected, those people were looking at Wanqing and Zhan Ling, wanting to see what the result of these two people would be.
Mo Yichen looked at Zhan Ling coldly. If it wasn’t for the warning look Wanqing gave him, he would have already chased Zhan Ling and her son out. But now, she couldn’t, she could only watch.
Wanqing turned to look at Princess Li and said, “Grandmother, please calm down. Your granddaughter is fine.”
Zhan Ling had already decided what kind of prize she wanted this woman to use to leave the position of Morning Queen or else she would be an ordinary concubine. In short, he couldn’t let her occupy the position of the ping fei.
Wanqing looked at Zhan Ling and knew what she was thinking, there was a faint smile on her face, “Since you’ve already decided on the wager, then let’s begin, how about it? Did you think about what you were going to compete for? Chess painting? Or is it poetry? ”
Zhan Ling looked at Liu Li who was beside him, and then turned and looked at Wanqing, “Alright, since you’re so confident, we can begin, but after you lose, you have to leave the Prince Chen’s Mansion.”
“How dare you!” Mo Yichen knew that Wanqing had grown up in the countryside since she was young. Although Wanqing had many ways of earning silver, Mo Yichen thought that all of these ways were definitely because of Wanqing, so she did not force herself to do it. Was she really going to let Wanqing leave the Prince Chen’s Mansion like they had bet?
Zhan Ling frowned, “Duke Chen, what do you mean? Could it be that Duke Chen has to care about the competition between us sisters? ”
Mo Yichen said as he gave her a cold glare, “Hmph, Wanqing is this king’s most beloved heart. If you want her to leave the Prince Chen’s Mansion, then please immediately get the hell out of it.”
Mo Yichen’s words stunned Zhan Ling, revealing a look of disappointment and sadness, Ling Long became even more furious, she pulled out her sword and directly thrusted at Mo Yichen, causing Mo Yichen to spin her body, and dodged it instantly. At the same time, she kicked Ling Long far away, causing her to lose consciousness.
If Mo Yichen did not hold back, he would have died a long time ago.
Mo Yichen looked coldly at Zhan Ling, and said with a cold voice, “Hmph, this servant’s education is not good.
Wanqing knew that other than herself, Mo Yichen did not have much patience for any other woman. However, she did not expect this person to be so good that she could knock a girl unconscious on the spot with a single kick.
When the officials who came to congratulate Mo Yichen saw that, they all thought that this was Duke Chen’s nature. It didn’t matter if it was a man or a woman, as long as they didn’t find anyone pleasing to look at, they would not miss a single one of them.
Mo Yiqing had also received an invitation today, but because he still had a patient, he did not come. When he received the time and came to congratulate him, he discovered that the anger in the Prince Li Palace was a little stifling, but he did not say anything and simply walked in Mo Yichen’s direction.
As for Jiang Yan, who followed beside Mo Yiqing, when she saw Wanqing, he immediately walked to her side, “Miss, are you alright?”
After Jiang Yan set up her own mother, she went to find Mo Yiqing, hoping that he would bring his to find Wanqing. Previously, when Wanqing had returned to the Prince Li Palace, he had told her to look for Mo Yiqing if there was something she needed, so she naturally brought his along with him.
Wanqing glanced at Jiang Yan, and gently shook her head, “Mn, I’m fine.”
“What is it? Do you think you don’t want to compete now that you have the support of the Morning King? Hmph, I would actually like to see if you are still as shameless as before. ”
With regards to the matter of the Morning King injuring Liu Li, Zhan Ling couldn’t say anything and could only endure it. However, with regards to the matter of Wanqing not fighting, Zhan Ling was actually quite happy.
Wanqing raised her eyebrows, “Hmph, then we will fight two out of three rounds, and Princess Zhan Ling can choose three of the pieces to compete with, letting all the people here bear witness.
As long as I can win two rounds, I’ll consider it a victory.
In Zhan Ling’s opinion, Wanqing was a person who was definitely going to lose. She was willing to give up the position of Cheng Wangping’s consort, but Mo Yichen, who was standing at the side, couldn’t help but take a closer look. What kind of virtue or ability did this Wanqing have? She could actually get the Morning King to take her to heart like this?
However, Zhan Ling still had confidence that as long as she could stay with Mo Yichen for a few days, she would definitely be able to obtain his trust.
Alright, since you said it yourself, then this princess thinks that other people might not be able to make your decision. In that case, this princess will choose the first three choices, painting or not, it is really too challenging for the chemical industry. This princess thinks that for you, there should be a certain degree of difficulty.
“Alright, since the princess has already said so, then I will take advantage of her kindness. Someone, come and play the zither.” Wanqing didn’t give Zhan Ling any chance to go back on her words, and directly ordered people to get on the guqin.
Although it was a zither in this ancient times, for a multi-talented person like Wanqing, this zither was also a type of zither that was dabbled in by others. Furthermore, its level was very high, so Princess Zhan Ling who was acting like this was obviously looking for a beating.
When Zhan Ling heard how happy she was, she could not help but be suspicious. However, after thinking about it, she finally relaxed.
“In that case, this princess will let you go first.” Zhan Ling said haughtily, it was obvious that even if she allowed him to do so, she would not be able to win against him.
How could Wanqing let go of the face-slapping matter?
“It’s alright. If the princess wants to start first, that’s fine too. After all, if I start first, I’m afraid the princess won’t even have the chance to fight.”
That’s right, Wanqing was so confident, but in Zhan Ling’s eyes, it was indeed an insult.
“Hmph, you can start if I tell you to. What’s with all this nonsense?”
While the two were speaking, the Maidservant of the Prince Li Palace had already brought out a famous guqin. Wanqing could tell with a glance that this guqin was not ordinary with just one glance.
“Good zither.”
