Before the hour (thirteen o'clock to fifteen o'clock), the king returned from the palace with an extra scroll of holy decrees in his hand. From his serious and indifferent expression, it was really impossible to tell whether he was happy or worried, but Mu Lingzhen felt that there must be nothing good, at least that's what her sixth sense told her.

Sure enough, after King Qi returned to the study, he called Mu Lingzhen over. Mu Lingzhen slowly followed Manager Zhang to King Qi's study, and before he entered the door, he heard the sound of a teacup falling to the ground. Manager Zhang's leg that just wanted to enter the door stopped on the threshold, and he didn't know whether to go out or enter.

"Except for Leng Mu, the others will get out of this king immediately!" King Qi's cold snort came out of the house, and when Manager Zhang heard this, he immediately pushed Mu Lingzhen in, and as for him, he must have run away.

Mu Lingzhen was pushed by Manager Zhang like this and almost lost her balance, but fortunately, she didn't fall, she just stumbled. "The prince is looking for Leng Mu, what do you have to say. As soon as Mu Lingzhen entered the door, she asked Ling Ying if she had anything to order, she thought Ling Ying would scold her, but things didn't seem to be as bad as she thought.

"Come here. King Qi ordered Mu Lingzhen indifferently, Mu Lingzhen was taken aback when she heard this tone, she was thinking about whether she should go over. "Didn't you hear, this king called you over!" Ling Ying's tone instantly turned cold, as if he could freeze people in an instant, Mu Lingzhen was so frightened that he immediately walked over.

"Lord Wang!"

"From this day on, you will obediently follow this king, where will this king go?

"Slave, understood!"

"You are now the king's personal maid, do you need this king to teach you what to do?"

"The slave and maid understood what the prince meant. Mu Lingzhen said. "Very well! Do you remember the Decameron?"

The slave remembered that it was said to the slave when the murderer pretended to be the prince. ”

"This king wants you to honor it, so tomorrow you will follow this king into the palace and choose a concubine for this king. Ling Ying said nonchalantly, but this sentence made Mu Lingzhen gasp: If she wants to choose a concubine, if she doesn't agree with the prince's wishes, then wouldn't she turn around! No! No!

Mu Lingzhen refused thousands of times in her heart, just: "You don't have to be embarrassed, just choose any one to be a show." Ling Ying picked up the brush and prepared to paint again, but when Mu Lingzhen saw this, she immediately sharpened it for him.

"In that case, why don't you choose your own choice? The slave and maid are clumsy, afraid that the person selected will not be in line with your wishes. Mu Lingzhen was bent on grinding ink and refusing, and didn't see Ling Ying's expression that seemed to be smiling rather than angry, although there was a hint of laughter, it was only fleeting.

"However, since you have already said so, the slave naturally has nothing to say. It's just that if the princess chosen by the slave maid is not to your liking, I hope you will bear with me. ”

"This king asked you to choose a concubine this time not to deliberately make it difficult for you, but this king thinks that because of your intelligence, you should be able to find a woman who is beneficial to this king and not harmful to be the princess. If it weren't for the king's trust in you, how could he have entrusted your life to you? ”

King Qi had something to say but did not elaborate on, because he expected that Mu Lingzhen must understand what he meant, and if he didn't understand, then she was not worthy of a strategy for him.

"Lord, the slave and maid understand. ”

"Oh, what do you understand?" asked the master knowingly. And a certain woman did not learn to pretend to be stupid, but asked seriously and calmly: "Lord Wang, is there anything in those courts and deep palaces that has threatened your status and safety?"
