Leng Changxi was shocked when she heard this, a bad premonition crawled through her heart, and her scalp was numb. King Xi called a woman who was engaged to his son a lady, but he called another woman's name so intimately.
, Sima Zhao’s heart is self-evident.
Leng Changxi forced a smile and said softly: "I've seen it before."
"What do you think of Miss Leng?" King Xi Feng asked calmly, his eyes gleaming as he stared at Leng Changxi closely.
"Miss Guo has a beautiful country, a pure and orchid heart, gentle and virtuous, and charming." Leng Changxi racked her brains and could only think of these few words of praise. They were all applied to Guo Wanrou. No matter how she thought about it, she felt that it was
I insulted these adjectives, and I silently apologized to the creator of the words.
After hearing her answer, King Xi nodded with satisfaction, stroking his goatee with one hand and placing the other beside the white marble table, sitting in a domineering posture.
"Wanrou is indeed a good child. I met her when she was a child. She is a talented woman who is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Moreover, she is the sixth granddaughter of Empress Guo's family, Zhenzong of Song Dynasty. She will also be of great help to Yuan'er in the future.
It’s not small.” King Xi said casually, but he easily tore through the layer of paper.
Leng Changxi felt a chill in her heart. It turned out that this was what he had in mind.
Leng Changxi did not answer. She sat silently at the table, waiting for King Xi to speak. Wangxianting suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
King Xi picked up the wine glass, put it to his lips and took a sip. Then he slowly put down the wine glass, and the glass made a crisp sound on the table, like a sharp sword cutting through the silence.
"What do you think, Miss Leng?" King Xi kicked the ball in front of her unhurriedly.
Leng Changxi sneered in her heart, but she pretended to be frightened: "Changxi, Changxi doesn't understand what the prince means."
"Miss Leng, I know you are a smart person, why bother pretending not to know." King Xi waved his hand and immediately saw that all the servants serving in the Immortal Pavilion had withdrawn ten steps away from the pavilion.
"Chang Xi really doesn't know." Leng Changxi looked frightened, her hands tightly twisting the corners of her clothes.
"In this case, then we should understand that people don't tell secret stories." King Xi glanced at her, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes. He didn't understand what was so good about this woman, except for her charming face and her ability to dance some strange things.
Apart from her weird dance, she didn't help Zhao Yuan at all. I really don't understand why Zhao Yuan is obsessed with her.
"Yuan'er has been in your Leng family for more than ten years and has been taken care of by you. I would like to thank you on his behalf." King Xi's thank you was like a grace. When Leng Changxi heard it, she lowered her head and flashed in her eyes.
A hint of sarcasm.
"This is what it should be..." Leng Changxi replied respectfully.
But King Xi raised his hand to interrupt her, and said in a deep and majestic voice: "Only when the dragon can show its power can it not be stranded on the beach. Yuan'er is destined to achieve great things, and the Leng family's shallow beach will definitely not be able to accommodate him for the rest of his life.
.”
King Xi calmly picked up the wine glass and played with it.
Leng Changxi didn't respond, but her heart felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave.
"Yuan'er likes you, maybe because I grew up with you as my childhood sweetheart and my childhood sweetheart. Therefore, I won't interfere too much in your marriage, as long as Yuan'er is happy."
King Xi's words not only did not reassure Leng Changxi, but intensified her bad premonition. As the saying goes, play hard to get, and she did not dare to take it lightly.
Sure enough, after the two of them were silent for a while, they heard King Xi speak again: "But since ancient times, capable men have had three wives and four concubines. Yuan'er likes you, and I have no objection, but Wanrou must join our Zhao family.
"
Leng Changxi's heart was pinched hard because of these words, and it hurt. Since she was a child, her parents have been in love with each other for the rest of her life, so she takes it for granted that she
She could live and sleep with Zhao Yuan just like her parents. But King Xi's words suddenly shattered her dream.
She didn't speak, just lowered her head. She wasn't pretending this time, but she was really uncomfortable. Whether it was in her previous life or this life, she had never faced such an embarrassing situation. She really didn't know what to do.
How to keep talking.
The King of Xi did not give her a chance to breathe. Feng Qingyun glanced at her indifferently, snorted coldly, and then said: "Men do not stick to trivial matters in order to achieve great things. I hope Miss Leng can understand this. The Leng family and Guo
Who will be more helpful to Yuan'er in the future?
"The Guo family is the descendant of Empress Guo, Zhenzong of the Song Dynasty, and has a power that cannot be underestimated in the court. The Leng family is just an aristocratic family, and at most has a small reputation in the world. If Yuan'er marries Wanrou, then Yuan'er will
You can get the full support of the Guo family, but if I marry you, Yuan'er will only be able to respond to a hundred responses in the arena. Compared with the court, the arena is really dispensable, don't you think?" King Xi's voice said
It was light, but Leng Changxi couldn't help but tremble all over, feeling both angry and afraid.
His words not only made her worthless, but also trampled the Leng family underfoot. A cold light suddenly appeared in her eyes, her teeth were clenched, and her fists were clenched, but her head was always lowered. She could not be impulsive at this time, her mind
The only trace of consciousness left in her mind kept reminding her.
Seeing that Leng Changxi did not answer his question, King Xi drained the wine in his glass in one gulp, with a proud sneer on his lips: "Miss Leng is also a transparent person, you should be able to understand it without my words, right? If so,
It would be best for Miss Leng to explain clearly to Yuan'er in person. After Yuan'er marries Wanrou, I can make the decision and let him accept you as his concubine. I should also fulfill your wish with Yuan'er and repay the Leng family's upbringing.
Yuan'er's kindness for more than ten years."
King Xi's words sounded like charity, which made Leng Changxi suddenly have the urge to laugh in anger.
But she took a deep breath and slowly pressed it down. After a long time, she slowly asked: "If Chang Xi doesn't want to do it, what will the prince do?"
She now understood King Xi's thoughts, but she didn't understand his purpose of imprisoning her here. If it was just a warning, it wouldn't make her stop even an inch.
"Then you can't blame me for reminding you." King Xi chuckled softly, as if he was hearing a joke from what she said.
Leng Changxi felt cold in her heart. This cold world has produced batch after batch of philistines who look down upon others.
"Miss Leng has plenty of time to think about it. I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer by then." King Xi looked at Leng Changxi with a confident look.
Leng Changxi, on the other hand, said nothing.
The wind blew slowly, and it was warm, lifting a strand of hair on her cheek, but it could not warm her heart. This autumn was really cold, and it was cold to the bones. She suddenly felt that the heaven and the earth were
