Chapter 26: Smooth-talking

Ling Shan opened her eyes wide and tightened her fists a bit more.

Just thinking of certain scenes, a wave of nausea suddenly welled up in her stomach.

This scumbag had truly reached a new level of despicability!

Wasn't he unable to feel superior in the prince's mansion, so he went out to seek a sense of self - worth?

Keeping actors?

If Jun Wuhao really liked men, yet he didn't miss out on taking wives and concubines. He deserved to be beaten.

Wanting everything was just wishful thinking. There was no such good thing in this world.

Not only did Lady Xiao want to beat him, but Ling Shan also felt so disgusted just looking at him that she wanted to punch him.

"So," Jun Wuyuan said with a smile, being quite agreeable. "As long as the Princess of Jing has no objections, next time when Prince Eleven brings his princess here in person, I will definitely issue an imperial decree for their divorce."

Jun Wuhao: "..."

Jun Wuyuan, you son of a bitch!

"What do you think, Prince Eleven?"

[If you can endure hardship, you can become a great person. Just because you got beaten once, you want to abandon your wife. You've shamed the Jun family. There's no such easy thing!]

Ling Shan thought: That's right!

[Moreover, how could such an exciting show only be watched once?]

Ling Shan seconded: Agreed! Add one! Add one! Add one!

Jun Wuhao's timid face stiffened slightly. "Your... Your Majesty, I... Lady Xiao is so overbearing and unreasonable. I'm afraid...

I'm afraid I won't be able to bring... bring Lady Xiao here in person..."

If that tigress Lady Xiao could be reasonable, the wounds on his face wouldn't have appeared.

Jun Wuhao couldn't understand. In the principle of "husband is the leader of the wife", even though she was from a martial family and he was timid by nature, he was still a proper prince. How could he be oppressed by Lady Xiao?

Jun Wuhao originally thought that since he came to the palace with wounds and Lady Xiao's status was not suitable to be a princess, Jun Wuyuan would most likely agree to the divorce.

However, he didn't expect that Jun Wuyuan would disagree.

Why?

Lady Xiao was the legitimate daughter of the General of Dingyuan. Wasn't this blood - thirsty tyrant afraid that his imperial brother might have improper thoughts?

Or did Jun Wuyuan simply not take his timid and cowardly imperial brother seriously?

"So, Prince Eleven, are you deliberately making things difficult for me?"

The light, slightly smiling tone floated into Jun Wuhao's ears.

As if he had thought of a bloody scene, a look of timidity and panic flashed across his eyes.

"I... I dare not... I know my mistake, Your Majesty. Please rest assured. I will have a good talk with Lady Xiao when I get back...

At that time, please, Your Majesty, make a decision for me..."

Tsk.

This cowardly guy still wanted to show his fangs?

A look of mockery flashed across Jun Wuyuan's eyes, and his lips curled up slightly.

"Go down. Have a good talk with the Princess of Jing. I can't be selfish and forget about the public, right? After all, the Xiao General's family has been loyal to the emperor and served the country. Don't let the loyal officials feel disappointed."

Jun Wuhao: "..."

It wasn't you who got beaten. It's easy for you to talk!

Compared to disappointing the officials, his good imperial brother, the well - known tyrant, was the real expert.

He was just a small prince. All he wanted was a gentle and virtuous princess. Was that wrong?

When had a proper imperial prince fallen to such a miserable state?

After being beaten, he still had to go back and coax Lady Xiao nicely to agree to the divorce?

What about the wounds on his face?

What did they count for?

Jun Wuhao left dejectedly. His already weak back looked even more like a drenched lapdog as he walked away.

Ling Shan felt delighted and the corners of her lips curled up.

Without even thinking, she knew that this Prince of Jing would surely end up with a swollen face like a pig's head when he got back.

Just thinking of that scene made her feel happy.

[What are you staring at that coward for, stupid goose? Staring and smiling. I'm still sitting here alive!]

Ling Shan flattened her lips: "..."

Who doesn't know you're alive!

"Your Majesty, have a sip of tea to relieve the greasiness. You must have been disgusted just now, right? This is Longjing tea that I brewed. Please have a taste, Your Majesty."

[Tsk, I knew it. With me here as a paragon, you, stupid goose, wouldn't be so blind as to stare at that short, poor and useless guy.]

Ling Shan: "..."

The small teapot in her hand seemed to have its own will.

It seemed to be shouting: Pour it on him! Wake him up!

Although it was the truth, compared to that timid and useless Jun Wuhao, Ling Shan really didn't take a fancy to him.

However, Jun Wuyuan wasn't any better!

He always threatened to chop off her head. If it weren't for the need to maintain her persona and seduce him to gain power, Ling Shan would really give him a good brain - washing.

"What do you think of Prince Jing?"

Jun Wuyuan gracefully held the Longjing tea and took a sip. He asked casually without much concern.

Ling Shan seriously stated her position with an angry pout on her pretty face:

"Your Majesty, I think Prince Jing only has good looks, but he is not even one - ten - thousandth as good as Your Majesty.

The heavens were kind enough to let him marry the Princess of Jing, but he didn't know how to cherish his fortune. He is so shameless...

I think although Prince Jing and Your Majesty are brothers, they are like one in the sky and the other on the ground.

In my heart, Your Majesty has a noble and handsome appearance, just as beautiful as a god..."

Jun Wuyuan sat up a bit straighter. A suspicious blush quietly crept up his ears.

[You smooth - talking stupid goose. I'm going to check how the vegetables in the peach orchard are growing!]

Ling Shan: "..."?

She stared at his back, which seemed to be running away in a hurry, and was slightly stunned with her eyes wide open for a moment.

Was Jun Wuyuan... shy?

Oh my god.

This was more shocking than watching Jun Wuyuan draw his sword to kill someone with her own eyes!

[What are you still standing there for, stupid goose? Do you want me to invite you?]

What?

Jun Wuyuan would kneel and beg her?

A really satisfying scene flashed through Ling Shan's mind.

Even just thinking about it made Ling Shan feel great.

Maybe one day... one day it would really come true?

"Your Majesty, I have a new idea about the peach orchard. I wonder if Your Majesty is interested in taking a look?"

In fact, at this moment, Ling Shan was just annoyed.

Jun Wuyuan nodded proudly as if he was extremely reluctant.

Ling Shan led the way in front with a gentle and respectful face, but in her heart, she had rolled her eyes a thousand times.

Stupid show - off guy!

Since Ling Shan moved into the peach orchard, Jun Wuyuan had handed over all the vegetables and flowers in the orchard to her.

He had been busy with official business in the previous few days. So when he came here this time, he was quite shocked.

The difference between a layman and an expert was very obvious.

It was undeniable that this stupid goose did have some skills.

"Your Majesty, come and take a look at this."

Ling Shan squatted in front of a sparse patch of fruit seedlings. The waves in her round almond eyes were as clear as autumn water, and the ends of her eyes were slightly upturned. The red mole on her face was extremely vivid.

She exuded a self - confident charm that was both alluring and unaware of it.

[Stu... Stupid goose actually looks quite... quite pleasing to the eye like this...]
