"Why not?"

Zhou Jincheng frowned, and looked at Ning Liuying with deep eyes.

Ning Liuying had mixed feelings in her heart, and when she remembered the tossing and turning of the night she received the note, a wry smile escaped from the corner of her lips.

In fact, she knew in her heart that she had already confirmed her intentions, whether she wanted to stay to avenge herself in her previous life or because of something else, she didn't want to leave Yuan Chufeng for the time being.

It's just that the crown prince of Zhou Guo has a relationship with the original owner after all, and this matter is not handled well, as a detailed work of Zhou Guo, she will definitely die without a place to be buried. Now I have to think of a reason, first stabilize Zhou Jincheng.

Ning Liuying thought about it again and again, and hesitated to speak: "I am now a lost martial artist, and I am a waster. Even Shen Zhou, the world's number one divine doctor, said that there is no way to save me, even if I return to Zhou Kingdom, what can I find a way to remove the residual poison from my body? ”

"Even if I go back with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, it will only cause trouble to His Highness, Your Highness, you know my intentions, and I don't want to be a burden to you."

She moved Shen Zhou's name out, and made up nonsense with the original owner's feelings for the prince of Zhou, thinking that Zhou Jincheng should not waste any more effort on her for his own great cause.

Unexpectedly, after Zhou Jincheng was silent for a moment, he said in a deep voice: "This king doesn't care about this, you have already sent the Yinluan Sword and the city defense map to this king, and you have done a great favor." ”

"Your responsibility is over, and staying by Yuan Chufeng's side is probably worrying about your life."

Fear for your life?

Ning Liuying remembered Yuan Chufeng's usual appearance of caring for her carefully, and she was in a trance for a while.

She thought about it, but still refused, "This silver luan sword and city defense map can only be used for a while, since I am a detailed work of the Zhou State, then I should be loyal to the Zhou State to the end." ”

"Your Royal Highness, you also know that the palace of the king of Zhennan is not something that anyone can enter if they want to, let me stay here, and I can also observe the movements of the king of Zhennan. After that, if Your Highness has any needs, I will be able to help you as soon as possible. ”

Ning Liuying's words were indeed reasonable, but in Zhou Jincheng's ears, there was something unpleasant.

Why did she refuse again and again?

In the past, she wanted to stay in Zhou State and stay by his side, if it wasn't for the situation, she wouldn't have chosen to blend into the Zhennan Palace.

Now that he has come to take her back, she is unwilling?

Zhou Jincheng's heart was suspicious, but his face was still silent.

The two were speechless for a moment.

After being silent for a while, Zhou Jincheng, who was suspicious in his heart, suddenly said: "Liuying, you don't have to do the fine work of Zhou Guo in the future, you will be mixed into the Zhennan Wangfu, and it will be too embarrassing for you to stay by the side of the ruthless and violent Zhennan King." ”

"If you go back with this king, this king will not count so much, and marry you into the house."

He wanted to test Ning Liuying and see what she thought.

Ning Liuying still didn't say a word.

Marrying Zhou Jincheng is the lifelong dream of the original owner.

But she is Ke Wan, and she has nothing to do with Zhou Jincheng, and she can't talk about any feelings.

Now she just wants to stay by Yuan Chufeng's side.

Ning Liuying slowly raised her gaze and said softly:

"Thank you Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince for your love, but I think that national affairs should come first in the private affairs of children. Now that the major events of the Zhou Kingdom have not been accomplished, it is difficult to find someone to infiltrate the Zhennan Palace, and I should take this responsibility instead of always being attached to His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

The implication is that I don't want to marry you.

Zhou Jincheng could hear what Ning Liuying meant, where would he believe this high-sounding statement, and directly sneered in his heart.

"Liuying, you didn't have this attitude towards this king in the past." Zhou Jincheng suddenly spoke, and his voice was a lot colder.

"Really? I just think that my previous thoughts are still not conducive to surviving in this Zhennan Wangfu, and by the side of the Zhennan King, I still need to think more, maybe this is what makes His Royal Highness the Crown Prince feel that I have changed. ”

Ning Liuying said lightly.

One bite of "King Zhennan", it's really annoying to listen to.

Zhou Jincheng was unhappy in his heart, and was about to open his mouth to persuade again.

The white-feathered cockatiel in the room suddenly cried.

"See the prince! See the king! ”

Zhou Jincheng set his eyes on the bird, and suddenly asked, "This is given to you by Yuan Chufeng?" ”

Ning Liuying let out an "um" and nodded.

"Yuan Chufeng treats you well now?" Zhou Jincheng asked again.

Ning Liuying was silent for a while.

It seems that at this juncture, no matter what the answer is, it is not appropriate.

After all, if he says "good", I'm afraid it will arouse the suspicion of the prince of Zhou, what if he finds out that she has betrayed her? But even if you say "not good", the luxurious furnishings in this Jiuxiang Temple can't deceive people.

But what Ning Liuying didn't know was that Zhou Jincheng already suspected her.

As soon as he entered this courtyard, he noticed that Ning Liuying seemed to have a different status from the other concubines in the Zhennan Palace.

is also an ordinary concubine, only Ning Liuying alone occupies the largest and most luxuriously decorated courtyard, and there is also a gift from Yuan Chufeng in the house, which shows that she should be very favored in the Zhennan Palace.

Since Ning Liuying has a confused memory now, it is difficult to guarantee that she will not rely on Yuan Chufeng's kindness to her in the case of amnesia, so she turned to betray him, and this possibility is not impossible.

But even so, he would take Ning Liuying with him.

After all, he wouldn't allow Yuan Chufeng to rob anything that belonged to him.

Even if Ning Liuying is unwilling to leave now, it doesn't matter, he only needs to use a little trick to separate the two, and borrow Yuan Chufeng's hand to make Ning Liuying die, and Ning Liuying will continue to work for him at that time.

Zhou Jincheng made a plan in his heart, so he didn't mention taking Ning Liuying back.

He thought about it and said, "It's good that you have the important affairs of your family and country in mind, and this king shouldn't force you." For now, if you want to continue to stay in the Zhennan Palace, then let it be you, and this king will return to the Zhou Kingdom by himself. ”

"It's just that this king was alone when he came, and he originally thought that he could take you back with him, but he didn't expect such a change to happen. This king doesn't ask you for anything, three days later, at the gate of Hanzhou City, can you come and give me a ride? ”

His tone softened a lot, as if he was genuinely inquiring.

Hearing that Zhou Jincheng didn't mean to take her away compulsorily, Ning Liuying's heart was happy, so she didn't think so much and agreed to him directly.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, for understanding the warbler, three days later, I will see His Highness off at the city gate. I just hope that His Royal Highness will concentrate on dealing with the affairs of the Zhou State after returning to China, and don't worry about my affairs. ”

Saying that, Ning Liuying glanced out the window, and saw that the hour was approaching, and Yuan Chufeng should come to her room soon, so she anxiously urged:

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you better leave quickly, the King of Zhennan will come to my room tonight, and now that the hour is approaching, I am afraid that something will happen if Your Highness stays further."

Hearing this, Zhou Jincheng nodded, turned his head and walked towards the wooden window.

Before leaving, he turned his head and glanced at Ning Liuying meaningfully, tiptoeed, and disappeared out of the window.

"Wandering Warbler, don't disappoint this king."

Fluttering words came from the wind.

When Ning Liuying was stunned, a burst of footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door.
