Chapter - 107 Iron Spear, Damaged Plough (2) (2/2)

Wanyan Kang was curious and asked, ”You've seen teacher kill before? When? Why did he kill people?”

The woman lifted her head and gazed at the light, as if she was somewhere far away and said gently, ”That was a long time ago. Ah, I cannot remember anymore!”

Wanyan Kang did not probe further, instead he grinned smugly and said, ”That Taoist Wang came to ask me how was I going to deal with the marriage and I told him that if he brought Miss Mu to me, I would listen to whatever he say.”

The woman asked, ”Have you asked your father permission? Has he agreed?”

Wanyan Kang smiled, ”Mother, you are too honest. I asked my men to trick them into coming here and locked them up in the back cell earlier on. How does Taoist Wang expect to find them then?” Wanyan Kang was going through the events in an excited manner while Guo Jing was fuming outside.

Guo Jing thought, ”To think that I actually thought that he had good intentions just now! Luckily Hero Mu is wise not to fall into his trap.”

The woman answered exasperatedly, ”How can you make fun of his daughter and lock them up? Hurry and release them now, and remember to apologize and give them some money.”

Guo Jing nodded his head and thought, ”That's more like it.”

Wanyan Kang said, ”Mother, you don't understand! These swordsmen don't care about money. If I release them and they go round telling people what happen, father will hear about it.”

The woman became anxious, ”Then do you want to lock them up forever?”

Wanyan Kang smiled, ”I sweet talked them into going back to their village and let them stupidly wait for me forever.” With that, he burst out laughing.

Guo Jing was shaking furiously at this time, he raised a palm towards the window frame and was about to yell out when he felt a soft and smooth palm cover his mouth and someone grab his left wrist. A gentle voice whispered into his ear, ”Calm down.”

Guo Jing recovered and turned towards Huang Rong with a faint smile before looking back into the room again.

Wanyan Kang continued, ”That Mu fellow is really cunning, he doesn't take the bait. But let's see how long he can last if I lock him up for another couple of days.”

His mother answered, ”I've seen Miss Mu and I find her beautiful and talented. She is quite likeable. Why not I talk to your father and ask him to let you marry her, then everything will be solved.”

Wanyan Kang laughed, ”Mother, for the last time, we are royalty. How can I marry such a commoner? Father always tells me that he will arrange a respectable match for me. But it's a pity that we are the Wanyans.”

The woman asked, ”Why?”

Wanyan Kang replied, ”If not, I can marry the princess and become the crown prince.”

The woman sighed and said in a low voice, ”How can you look down on poor commoners…do you really think that…”

Wanyan Kang laughed, ”Mother, I have a joke for you. That Mu fellow says that he will only believe me if he meets up and discuss with you.”

The woman replies, ”I won't help you to lie and do such despicable things.”
