Chapter 513: Fight for a small life
Princess Taiping's toughness made Haoda furious, and he was about to open his mouth to scold, but was stopped by Mao Wenlong waving his hand. Mao Wenlong looked at the princess with his eyes level, and said seriously: "The twisted melon is not sweet, and Mao also knows that the princess does not really like me." Since neither of us liked each other, why did the princess force it so much? ”
"No need to talk nonsense, you just have to answer now whether to marry or not to marry." Princess Taiping is still the same unreasonable look.
In the princess's opinion, she can sacrifice everything, including her own body, for the future of the old Zhu family and for the sake of Chongzhen's Daming. And it is a matter of course for her to do this, and it is also her filial piety to Chongzhen.
Princess Taiping will never forget the scene when Chongzhen had tears in her eyes in the imperial city and personally stabbed all her family members with a sword. And when it was her turn, Chongzhen's originally firm expression loosened.
"Yu Jiao, you can escape by yourself, go to your master, my father has no other requirements, I just hope that you can leave a bloodline for our Zhu family. And your title of Princess Changping will also be changed to Princess Taiping in the future, hoping that the Ming Dynasty will have a peaceful day in the world. Chongzhen put down the sword resting on his daughter's neck.
"Father, the daughter is willing to live and die with her father." Zhu Yujiao resolutely responded to Chongzhen.
"Do you know why your father is the only one who doesn't kill you?" Chongzhen said with a bitter face.
"My daughter doesn't know?" Zhu Yujiao replied.
"Because you still have an unfinished mission, in case your father has three longs and two shorts this time, you will have to bear the same line between the Ming and Zhu families in the future." When Chongzhen spoke, his heart was full of bitterness.
Before that, he actually had two or three princes, but none of them were people who could be trusted. It's either too small, or it simply can't afford such a burden. Rather than keeping them to be used by people with ulterior motives in the future, it is better to kill them directly to prevent future troubles.
Princess Changping is different, she has worshiped the master of Fangwai since she was a child, and she is rarely in the palace. Ordinary people don't put their ideas on her, and besides, the princess herself has learned a good martial arts, so self-protection is not a problem at all.
Mao Wenlong looked down at the tip of the sword against his heart, and then looked at Princess Changping, who was completely likely to stab him to death with a sword. A trace of hesitation flashed in Mao Wenlong's eyes, with his understanding of Zhu Yujiao, it was entirely possible for this persistent crazy woman to stab herself to death with a sword when she was desperate.
died like this, Mao Wenlong was not stupid enough to be so stupid, he slowed down his tone and said softly: "Princess, why should you!" In fact, Mao also knows that you are doing this just for your Zhu family and your father's Daming. And if you want to do these things, you don't have to use the method of Mao marrying a princess. ”
Princess Changping frowned suddenly, she was already a little moved in her heart at this moment, but she still stubbornly believed that at present, in addition to letting Mao Wenlong marry her and then give birth to a child, this is the most direct and appropriate way.
Mao Wenlong saw Princess Changping's hesitant expression, and he hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and said: "I, Mao Wenlong, can swear in front of the princess tonight, and in the future, Daming will definitely belong to your Zhu family." I, Mao Wenlong and everyone in the Mao family, will never have the heart of voyeurism. ”
"Hmph, Mao Wenlong, you are too underestimated in this palace, and you want to use this kind of indiscriminate empty vernacular to fool this palace, don't think about it." After a short period of wandering, Princess Changping immediately regained her clarity.
Seeing that the princess still didn't trust what she said, Mao Wenlong said helplessly: "Then how can the princess believe what Mao just said?" ”
Princess Changping sneered: "It's very simple to ask this palace to believe you. As long as you, Mao Wenlong, marry this palace, all of this has nothing to do with it. ”
Going around and around, and finally still going around to this problem, Mao Wenlong suddenly had an impulse, he really wanted to go up and slap this confused woman twice. But thinking that his life at the moment was still in the hands of the princess, Mao Wenlong could only continue to persuade patiently: "Besides this, can't the princess think of other ways?" For example, the hostage or some of Mao's handles are in the hands of the princess, and so on, ......"
No way. Mao Wenlong is also so anxious and confused now, he actually taught others to use such insidious means to deal with himself. However, there seems to be no other way out than to do so.
After Princess Changping heard this, her eyes were really bright, after all, she was not a princess who stayed in the palace all year round. She hadn't even thought of such a small means, and it wasn't until she was reminded by Mao Wenlong like this that her mind began to come alive.
Princess Changping is not stupid, Mao Wenlong's reminder that she has begun to think of the people next to Mao Wenlong, and her mind has begun to think about it, racking her brains to calculate Mao Wenlong.
Seeing the princess's suddenly enlightened expression, Mao Wenlong didn't dare to let her imagine it infinitely. So, he began to take the initiative to guide again: "How is it? What does the princess think of Mao's proposal, and is it feasible? ”
Without waiting for Princess Changping's response, Mao Wenlong continued: "Actually, you are already staying in Mao's mansion now, whether it is Mao's family or my own safety, is in your hands, does the princess think this is not enough insurance?" ”
Princess Changping was stunned for a moment, and she suddenly felt that what Mao Wenlong said seemed to be quite reasonable. Thinking about her own time in Mao's Mansion, she was monitoring Mao Wenlong at all times, and she could contact Mao Wenlong's family at any time. This is enough to prove that Mao Wenlong has no defense against her at all.
After some careful thought, Princess Changping slowly withdrew the long sword that was in Mao Wenlong's heart, and snorted coldly: "This palace will believe you for the time being, and I will give you an answer after this palace has discussed with my father." ”
The deadly sword finally left him, Mao Wenlong's hanging heart finally calmed down, and he said with a sigh of relief: "It's okay for the princess to discuss slowly, in short, the agreement we just made is always valid." ”
Let a dangerous person like Princess Changping haunt her and her family at any time. Mao Wenlong actually didn't want to do it in his heart, but he didn't seem to have any other choice but to do so.
Princess Changping withdrew her sword and gave Mao Wenlong a warning look when she left.
Mao Wenlong watched her leave, his face full of helplessness.
"Chief soldier, why don't I take a few good hands to tie up this princess and let the chief soldier fall?" Vast and timely advice.
Shaking his head, Mao Wenlong said: "If killing her can solve the problem, do you think I will keep her until now?" ”
