SFS Chapter 166 I am her cousin
Chapter 166 I am her cousin
At that time in Dayong, literature was given priority, and there were many people who were proficient in poetry, books and etiquette.
There are not many people who are good at military strategy, and this person can be considered a military genius.
Zhong Ning's eyes were blazing as he stared at Lu Xingzhou with great passion.
After all, if he hadn't spoken up, I would have forgotten about it long ago!
Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard Lin Jiacai say, "Brother Lu, I've told you countless times not to discuss this in front of others. We are students preparing for exams, not soldiers in the military."
Lin Jiacai's meaning was very clear. Although he also admired the soldiers, in this era, scholars had a natural sense of superiority over warriors.
In the court, military generals were extremely suppressed by civil officials.
Although the imperial court was about to deploy troops and military generals had a place to use their skills, military men were still military men, extremely rude and without any manners or manners.
How can we compare with these literati?
Zhong Ning's eyes turned cold when he heard this. "From what Brother Lin said, are you looking down on the soldiers of Dayong?"
Lin Jiacai's expression changed slightly, and he immediately explained: "I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it. Civil officials and military generals each have their own merits."
He didn't dare to say openly that he looked down on military generals. If this were to reach the ears of the military generals, he would probably be beaten.
"You, come here!" A cute and anxious female voice suddenly sounded. It was Murong Huan.
When everyone saw Murong Huan coming, they all turned their eyes towards Lu Xingzhou.
The little princess is here again, Brother Lu is really charming!
Lu Xingzhou's face darkened slightly. He stood in front and shouted at Murong Huan, "Nonsense! Princess, please pay attention to your identity!"
At this moment, he just thought that the little princess was unwilling to be rejected by him again and again, so she sent guards to tie him up and take him back.
How could he, a man, be toyed with by a woman like this?
Only Zhong Ning raised his eyebrows slightly.
Murong Huan's direction seemed to be directed at her!
"Bring him to me!"
When Murong Huan saw Zhong Ning dressed in men's clothes and mixed in with a group of men, and so close to her brother Lu, she immediately jumped up in anger.
Lu Xingzhou's eyes were filled with fire, and he was about to scold Murong Huan for his bad behavior of bullying men and women, but he didn't expect that the two guards would directly pass him and rush towards Zhong Ning.
Lu Xingzhou's eyes paused slightly, and he looked at Murong Huan in disbelief.
This little princess who had been chasing him relentlessly for a few days had actually changed her target today?
But even if it wasn't directed at him, he shouldn't be so presumptuous!
Lu Xingzhou was about to stop him, but suddenly, he saw the always gentle and polite Mr. Zhong smile.
Then he took a few quick steps and rushed straight towards Murong Huan, went around behind him and took him into his arms.
He pinched her neck with two fingers in the shape of tiger claws and warned, "If you come any closer, your little princess will be dead!"
The two guards and the maid were suddenly horrified and rushed over one by one to save their princess.
Zhong Ning held Murong Huan's body and pressed harder with his two fingers. Murong Huan was so angry that he whispered to Zhong Ning:
"Murong Ning, you've gone too far. If I hadn't been worried about you getting hurt here, I wouldn't have come all the way here to protect you. But you're so ungrateful that you've touched me in public."
Murong Huan opened her eyes wide and glared at Zhong Ning's rude offense!
Zhong Ning rolled his eyes and whispered back, "You sent someone to arrest me as soon as you came here. How can I run away if I don't threaten you?"
"Who told you to tease this princess first?"
"You were the one who provoked me first..." Zhong Ning replied calmly.
"Ah...I hate you so much..."
"Each each other!"
Others present: ...................
The situation was rather strange now. Zhong Ning, dressed in men's clothing, half-hugged Murong Huan in his arms, his fingers loosely grasping her neck.
Then the two of them chatted as if nothing had happened.
The voices were so low that it was hard to hear what was said, but from the expression, one could tell that Murong Huan was very angry.
"Hurry back and don't bother me here!" Zhong Ning whispered in Murong Huan's ear, threateningly, "Otherwise I'll strip you naked and throw you into the mountains to feed the wolves."
"Ah... Murong Ning, this princess must be crazy to worry about you, you heartless bastard, just wait, this princess will not let you go..."
"How can you not let me go? Huh?" Zhong Ning held her in his arms and blew a breath in her ear teasingly.
"Mu, Rong, Ning, you rascal, you don't deserve the dignity of a princess of the current dynasty at all. Aren't you afraid that I will complain to the emperor's uncle?" Murong Huan was very angry. After all, there were other people here, and her brother Lu must have misunderstood.
"Yes, go ahead. I promise that the day you enter the palace, Princess Anqing's heroic deeds of being obsessed with men and disregarding etiquette and shame in order to pay for them will spread throughout the streets and alleys!"
"you......."
Murong Huan was successfully angered to tears, and her tears were about to fall, which made the people opposite her very worried.
"Brother Zhong..." Lin Jiacai took the lead and stepped forward, bowing and saying, "The princess has no ill intentions. I hope Brother Zhong will show mercy!"
Lin Jiacai's face was full of heartache. How could such a beautiful woman, who was born into a royal family as a princess, be so blind as to fall for that cold guy Lu Xingzhou?
Isn't he handsome enough?
Isn't he talented enough?
Why do all of them look down on him?
Now that he has taken the initiative to plead for Princess Anqing, the princess will definitely see his intentions clearly.
Lu Xingzhou's expression was calm, and he looked at Zhong Ning with some hostility. Although the little princess had acted a little naughty, she had no ill intentions.
Moreover, in this era, the separation between men and women is very strict. Brother Zhong's behavior is not good for the reputation of the little princess.
"Brother Zhong, a woman's reputation is extremely important. Don't hurt the princess again, or you will be in danger!"
When Murong Huan heard Lu Xingzhou pleading for her, she was moved to tears. She knew that Brother Lu could not be indifferent to her.
Lin Jiacai:.........
It really blinded my sincerity!
Zhong Ning slowly let go of Murong Huan's neck, then explained with a wry smile, "It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. Let me introduce myself. I'm Zhong Huaren, a distant relative of Prince An's Mansion, and also the distant cousin of this young princess!"
"Right? Princess?"
Murong Huan:.........
Damn it, you bastard, it’s obvious that this princess is half a year older than you!
How dare you take advantage of this princess?
But now that things have come to this, she couldn't refute it, so she could only grit her teeth and admit, "Yes, cousin!"
"What about you just now?" Xu Zirui asked in confusion.
"This princess was so excited when she saw my cousin... She wanted to invite him to stay at the No. 1 Guest House for a while, but she was afraid he wouldn't agree, so she took action... Right, cousin?" Murong Huan gritted her teeth and looked at Zhong Ning.
"My cousin is so kind, I dare not refuse. However, I have already checked into the Dingzi Guest House and will leave early tomorrow morning, so I won't bother going back and forth..."
