Li Longji took a sip of the contents of the cup with Yun Niang's hand. Sure enough, he felt that the entrance was clear and soft, with a lingering sweetness. After being drugged, Li Longji felt bitter in his mouth and dizzy.
A mouthful of flower dew entered his throat and immediately made him feel much more comfortable.
Li Longji took the cup, put his other hand around Yun Niang's waist, pulled her to sit next to him, leaned close to her ear, and asked softly:
"Yunniang, how were you last night?"
Yun Niang's face immediately turned red like two red clouds flying over her. She let out a cry and leaned into Li Longji's arms:
"Your Majesty made fun of me again."
Li Longji looked at Yun Niang's shy look and deliberately teased:
"Why, are you angry? I was thinking that I accidentally took the drug last night and wronged you, so I wanted to spend time with you tonight to apologize to you. Since you don't like it
forget about it."
As soon as she heard Li Longji say forget it, Yun Niang raised her head and said anxiously:
"I don't like it!"
"So, you like it, then tell me, what do you like?"
"Your Majesty!" Yun Niang called out tenderly, burying her head deeply into Li Longji's arms.
Looking at Yun Niang's appearance, Li Longji also felt emotional. Although the woman in his arms had fallen into the world, she was also arrogant, but for herself, she willingly endured all loneliness and grievances. Such a good woman
, is worthy of being loved by oneself.
With this thought in his mind, Li Longji couldn't help but say:
"Yun Niang, I know that I am not an ideal husband because there are too many women around me, but I promise that no matter how many women are around me, there will always be a place for you beside me. In this life
, I will always treat you well, believe me."
"I believe it!" Hearing Li Longji's earnest confession to her, Yun Niang was moved to tears. She hugged Li Longji's body tightly and said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty is wrong, you are what Yun Niang thinks.
The most ideal husband, I have never thought about letting the prince belong to me alone, because I know that the prince is a truly upright hero. It would be too unfair for the prince to have only one woman by his side. As long as he can stay forever.
I am content with the prince."
The two people hugged each other tightly like this.
At this time, by coincidence, two people were discussing similar topics in the princess's mansion. These two people were Mingzhu and Wangyounu.
Wangyounu always acts in a whimsical way. In order to make it easier for her to travel to and from the princess's palace, she even prepared herself the outfit of a maid in the princess's palace. Moreover, she also combined the looks of many servants in the princess's palace and made a specially made mask. This is
The most ingenious thing about the mask is that when everyone in the princess mansion saw Wangyounu, they felt that they had seen her before, but they couldn't call her by name. Moreover, there were many servants in the princess mansion, so seeing one
It seems that it is normal for a servant to be friendly but not acquainted with her. In this way, Wangyounu can follow Mingzhu everywhere with arrogance.
Now, Mingzhu is in the garden of the Princess Mansion, supervising a group of carpenters working hard.
"What are you trying to do?" Wangyounu asked curiously, standing next to Mingzhu.
"Didn't I tell you? You'll understand when it's done. I can't explain it to you now. You haven't told me yet. Why did you leave last night and come back early this morning?"
"I want to talk to you about Li Longji." Wangyounu replied.
"What does he have to talk about?"
"Why not? Didn't you also appreciate his behavior yesterday?" Wangyounu said.
"Yes, he performed very well yesterday, and it was beyond my expectations. He made me get to know him again. But didn't we already talk about these things yesterday? Is it worth your special visit today?" No.
Knowing why, Mingzhu always felt that Wangyounu came to see her today with ulterior motives.
Wangyounu did not immediately answer Mingzhu's words. She looked at the busy craftsmen for a while, and then murmured:
"To be honest, I was quite surprised that he behaved like that yesterday. I always thought that these princes and grandsons were all good at what they had, and they were both good and beautiful.
It’s a useless embroidered pillow. I didn’t expect him to be so ruthless.”
Mingzhu listened carefully to Wangyounu's praise of Li Longji. She felt that she couldn't find the key point after listening for a long time, so she couldn't help but ask:
"What exactly are you trying to say? Can you be more direct?"
"Oh, you want to hear it straight? What I mean is, can you consider marrying Li Longji now?"
Mingzhu almost choked. For the first time, she discovered that people can change from tactful to straightforward so quickly.
Mingzhu calmed down for a while, then asked Wangyounu angrily:
"Is this why you came here today?"
"Yes, because this issue is very important to me."
"What's important about this?"
"After all, you are pretending to be a member of the Fang family, so if you really marry Li Longji, then maybe we will find a new way."
Mingzhu looked at Wangyounu and said very firmly:
"Okay, since this question is so important, I will answer you very formally now. You hear me clearly, there is absolutely no way I will marry Li Longji!"
"Why? He is a prince, and he is also a very good man. Especially after what happened yesterday, you have begun to look at him differently."
"Yes, I admit that he is indeed very good, and through these days of contact, I have indeed come to appreciate him more and more, but it is impossible for me to marry him. Because I cannot marry a man with many wives and concubines.
, the first thing my man should do is to have only one woman for the rest of his life!" Mingzhu said solemnly.
But she didn't expect that what she would get in exchange for her impassioned speech would be Wangyounu's incredible look. At the same time, Wangyounu also sighed sincerely:
"You are so domineering!"
"I'm domineering!" Mingzhu cried out, "What kind of domineering is this? This is human nature. Every woman will ask her man to be exclusive."
"But unless you marry a very incompetent and mediocre man, he will never be loved by other women throughout his life. In that case, he will only have you as his only woman. And any slightly better man will not have only one woman.
By the same token, the better a man is, the more women will be around him." Wangyounu tried to explain this truth to Mingzhu.
"fallacy!"
Just as Wangyounu felt that Mingzhu was overbearing, Mingzhu responded to Wangyounu with two words without hesitation.
Wangyounu shook her head:
"Maybe it's because you are too young and don't understand what men are like. When you reach the age of marriage and truly understand men, you won't be so naive."
Mingzhu glanced at Wangyounu:
"It seems that you have reached the age to get married. Can you really tolerate your husband and a large group of concubines?"
As Mingzhu asked, she recalled Wangyounu's usually violent temper, so she sincerely believed that Wangyounu would not have this kind of self-cultivation.
Wangyounu was obviously stunned by Mingzhu's question. She was stunned for a while and then murmured:
"I've never thought about this before."
"Then try to think about it now." Mingzhu deliberately teased her.
Wangyounu really thought about it seriously, but as she was thinking about it, her face suddenly changed and she said fiercely:
"Hmph, if he dares to find another woman, I'll kill him first! I want to see if he has the courage!" As soon as Wangyounv finished her words, she didn't even say hello to Mingzhu, but just walked away minding her own business.
.
Mingzhu was stunned by her sudden behavior. She didn't know who the 'him' in Wangyounu's mouth was, but it was obvious that if that 'he' dared to look at another woman, Wangyounu would immediately
Cut him into pieces.
Thinking of this, and then thinking about the way Wangyounu had just explained to herself that men should have more women, Mingzhu couldn't help but feel funny, and thought to herself:
'It seems that women all over the world are the same. When they persuade others, they all speak plausibly, but when it is their turn, each one is more domineering than the other!'
In fact, Mingzhu also thought wrong. At least in this city of Chang'an, there are not many domineering women. There are more like Huangfu Feixia, Yun Niang, Shangguan Wan'er, who can tolerate and know how to abide by this kind of society where men are superior to women.
A woman in her current situation.
They try their best to show their gentleness, virtuousness and timidity in front of men. But once they deal with women who threaten them, they become more vicious than the last.
After Li Longji left Guiyun Pavilion, Yun Niang's face immediately became gloomy. Although she had received Li Longji's promise, she still felt uneasy, and the person who made her uneasy was the woman named Fang Mingzhu.
!
Until now, she had never really met Fang Mingzhu, but through the last conversation, she could feel that Fang Mingzhu was a very confident and arrogant woman.
'In other words, she will be a woman who can attract Li Longji's attention and is suitable for Li Longji!' A wry smile appeared on Yun Niang's face.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel that fate was too unfair to her. If her father had not been convicted and his house had not been confiscated, then she would be as confident and arrogant as Fang Mingzhu! But now, she no longer has the dignity and status of the past.
You can only rely on compromise to please a man.
In fact, this was Yun Niang's own misconception. When Ming Zhu first returned to the Tang Dynasty, her living environment and status were far inferior to Yun Niang's. She had achieved everything through her own efforts.
But Yun Niang didn't care about this. She only knew that she had found a wonderful way to kill Mingzhu!
