C75 Marry you as a wife (1/2)
She was burning with anxiety and wanted nothing more than to escape. With a thought, she suddenly realized that Jin Wushu's order badge was beside her bed. That day, she took it off and threw it on the ground, and Jin Wushu then placed it on the side of her bed. She immediately went over to pick it up, only to hear Jin Wushu shouting outside: ”Hua Rong!” She quickly put the token away and walked out. There was a table outside with a few side dishes and two jars of wine.
Jin Wushu looked at her carefully. Ever since she tried to commit suicide, she had looked very weak and listless. Seeing her looking haggard, Jin Wushu sighed, then said suddenly: ”Hua Rong, do you really want to leave this place?”
Hua Rong sneered, wasn't that nonsense?
”Hua Rong, if I bring you back to the Shang Jing and treat you well, would you be willing? Although due to your identity as Song people, I am unable to take you as my legal wife, I will definitely spoil you so that you will not lose your position as an imperial concubine in any way.
She laughed, ”Jin Wushu, do you really like me?”
He didn't understand why she would ask this question. He was overjoyed. Could it be that she also slightly liked him?
He immediately said, ”It's true.”
”Then marry me, and not concubinage!”
”No way!” Without even thinking about it, he rejected her immediately, ”As a woman of the Song Kingdom, you can only be my concubine. ”I won't lie to you, my Father has already arranged a marriage for me. She is the daughter of Vice-Chancellor Da Jin, when we return to our country, I will definitely marry her and make her my queen!”
Hua Rong laughed heartily, ”Jin Wushu, you are indeed an honest gentleman.”
”Da Jin's wife and concubine line is not as strict as that of Song Kingdom's. He only wants to see who his husband dotes on to become the true mistress of the family.”
”Since there are no strict rules, then why are we competing to be the principal wife?”
Jin Wushu could not answer.
He saw the strange smile on Hua Rong's face, and said with difficulty: If Song Nü was a captive for this subject, how could she be a principal wife? My Father, my brothers and sisters, will not agree. Even Princess Da Song could only be a concubine. ”
Hua Rong did not mind, as Jin Wushu's answer was completely consistent with her judgement. The reason why she thought of this question was because he remembered how many times the Ninth Prince had questioned the ”lateral consort”. Jin Wushu's answer was a standard answer. She thought that if he could escape, and if Ninth Prince brought up the matter of again in the future, he might as well do as he said and guarantee that he would retreat immediately.
Jin Wushu saw her expression changed drastically, as though he was overjoyed, and asked strangely: ”Hua Rong, are you willing or not?”
”I don't want to!”
He was even more curious. ”If you were the principal wife, would you be willing?”
She smiled slyly: ”Jin Wushu, I just want to see what exactly your 'sincerity' is.”
Her smile was gentle and charming, and even the stubbornness in her bones had become as gentle as water.
He was stunned for a moment. ”What does being a concubine have to do with true feelings?”
”If you're sincere, how can you let your beloved girl be your concubine?”
”Hua Rong, do you think that I am not sincere to you?”
”No!” You only respect me because I'm courting death and have a bit more backbone than the other Song Capture s. Just like how you respect General Song and his mother. Jin Wushu, thank you. This kind of respect is more important to me than my 'heart'! ”
His heart trembled, not knowing how to refute. Sincerely, how to evaluate? Did he have to use another method to obtain her?
He didn't know if it was because he had fallen in love with someone, but his heart was filled with tenderness. He stared at her smile, seeing it for the first time. He stayed silent for a while, then said dejectedly: ”Hua Rong, accompany me to drink a few cups. ”This is 20 years of top-notch 'Girl's Red'.”
She sat down in silence, picked up a glass of wine, and drank it all in one gulp.
”Hehe, straightforward. You drink a cup, while I drink three …”
Jin Wushu drank continuously, as if he was worried deeply, and gulped down a few large cups. He felt that it was not good, so he simply threw away the wine cup and picked up the wine jar to drink.
Hua Rong saw that he was drunk after a while, and was secretly happy in her heart, she also ate and drank until she was full, and when she saw that Jin Wushu was lying on the ground, she was completely unconscious.
She reached out to touch his breath. It was heavy and did not move at all.
She slowly stood up and looked at the night sky. She quietly went into the house and wrapped a bow and arrow in a bundle. She changed her clothes and looked around. She saw that the guards were all drunk in the outer room.
Outside the camp, in the stables, she knew better, hesitated, and went over. In the darkness, she saw the GenSys chewing grass in the corral.
She took out the order badge and the coachman recognized the woman beside Fourth Prince. The ”GenSys” was also given to her by the Fourth Prince, so without asking, he untied the reins and handed it over to her.
Hua Rong's heart jumped, she mounted the horse and with a dozen horses, she rushed out. The whole journey at Jin Wushu's camp had gone smoothly. She was suspicious in her heart, could it be that Jin Wushu had intentionally pretended to be drunk and was kind enough to let his go? Or was he planning something?
He rushed to the third tent without stopping and suddenly heard a loud shout: ”Who is it?”
did not dare to reply, he knew that taking out Jin Wushu's order badge would not only be useless, but would also bring about more trouble. Without any hesitation, he would attack his horse and charge forth, as long as he rushed out of the camp, with the support of ”Jin Si”, he would definitely be able to shake off the pursuers.
They were under Zong Han's command to watch out for any movements from the Fourth Prince. This time, they recognised that it was one of Fourth Prince's famous horses, and with a loud shout, dozens of soldiers chased after her.
