Chapter 261: Punishing the heart is the best policy
"Your Highness, are you alright?"
"You haven't eaten a drop of water today, do you want to eat something?"
Xu Manjin took the maid into the door, put the food box on the table, and took out a bowl of sweet soup and a stack of snacks.
Lian Jinchen came back to his senses in a trance and looked at Xu Manjin.
"Do you want to leave?" Lian Jinchen asked suddenly.
Xu Manjin was stunned for a moment, and asked softly, "What does Your Highness mean by this?" ”
Lian Jinchen lowered his eyes.
He didn't like Ning Fengxu before.
Without him, Ning Fengxu has a perverse personality, and there is nothing comparable to him, but he loves Qi Wan, and he can see it clearly.
Qi Wan treats Ning Fengxu well, and he is much more familiar with nature than him.
He didn't want to think about it at the time.
It's because I don't care.
Later, he realized that he didn't like Ning Fengxu because Ning Fengxu was interested in Qi Wan, and he didn't like Qi Wan because he couldn't feel the love between men and women in Qi Wan.
Qi Hui is a good wife, but her heart is too shallow.
All she treats him well is simply because he's okay and she's her fiancé, that's all.
Not in love with him.
He thought that he and Qi Mingyue were in love.
But now it turns out that this is nothing more than a ridiculous calculation.
He is also just a pawn used by Qi Mingyue, a knife to help Qi Mingyue realize her ambitions and ambitions.
This knife also obediently eradicated her troubles for her.
even has a "deep affection" for her.
It's stupid.
Qingqi has never liked him, and all the flirtatious temptations she used to have with him were just for Qi Wan's revenge.
It is the best policy to punish the heart.
He failed Qi Wan, and Qingqi led him step by step to take the bait, provoking his feelings with Qi Mingyue, and letting him see clearly how fragile and ridiculous the relationship between himself and Qi Mingyue was.
And Xu Manjin, who was included in the mansion by him in front of him, was calculated by Qi Mingyue, and became his side concubine in order to protect Mingzhe's body.
No one truly loved him.
He has been smart since he was a child, and he has been smooth sailing and conceited.
But this conceit was in the end, his desire to conquer the world was never realized half a step, but he was played by several women along the way.
"Hahaha~"
Lian Jinchen suddenly raised his head and laughed.
Xu Manjin's eyelids jumped.
She waved her hand to let the maid behind her withdraw, and stood with her head bowed respectfully.
When Lian Jinchen had laughed enough, the madness on his face had disappeared and he regained his composure, he looked at Xu Manjin: "You are innocently affected, as in this king's mansion, this king knows that what you ask for is not love." If this throne is still the same, it may be able to promise you a future. But now, the future of this king is uncertain, and there is no need to continue to implicate you. ”
"This king gives you two choices, one is that this king will let you go home, and the matter of the side concubine will be stopped, you go to find the eldest princess of Xiangyang, she will handle this matter for you."
"The second is that you continue to stay in the house, and this king's expedition is imminent, and if you go, I am afraid that there will be no time to return. Those cousins of this king, no matter which one succeeds to the throne, will not be difficult for you. ”
"The choice is yours."
Xu Manjin didn't expect Lian Jinchen to say such a thing to her.
Since breaking through Qi Mingyue's strange methods, she has been trembling these days, and she has not been able to sleep peacefully for a day.
Now it is probably impossible for Qi Mingyue to come back.
Chenwang's Mansion is relatively safe.
If she returns home at this time, she doesn't know how much gossip she will face.
It's better to stay here for now, and wait for King Chen to really die before making plans.
So Xu Manjin said decisively,
"The concubine is grateful for His Royal Highness's mercy, and the concubine is willing to stay in the house."
