After rebirth, the prince fell into the hands of the princess again

When Rong Yan and Tang Mumu arrived at the city gate, Rong Lou and Linlang were already waiting there. They could sense the aura difference between the two from afar. In Tang Mumu's impression, the second prince was just a dumb guy who was not allowed to speak, but he seemed to be a different person when facing Linlang. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was cold and defensive towards her.

To the west of the Li Dynasty is Xiling. It took the group of four more than a month to enter Xiling after setting out from Shangjing. They first stayed in an inn. The journey had been arduous during this period, and both people and horses needed rest.

"After dinner, you can rest first. My second brother and I are going to the city. This trip may take some time, so we have to rent a yard. Now that we are in Xiling, we cannot easily reveal our identities. Princess Linlang, please pretend to be a couple with my second brother for the time being. From now on, I will call you my second sister-in-law. I wonder if Princess will agree to this?"

After spending nearly a month with her, I have a general idea of ​​everyone's habits. Princess Linlang is really like Tang Mumu said, a woman who values ​​friendship and loyalty, and has a chivalrous spirit. She likes to be straightforward in her words and deeds. Except for the conflict with her second brother, it is quite easy and pleasant to get along with them.

Linlang glanced at Ronglou and immediately rolled her eyes at him again, "I have no problem with that, but I'm afraid some people won't cooperate. You've seen how sarcastic he has been to me along the way."

Rong Lou couldn't help but frowning when he heard this. He always prided himself on having a good temper and being courteous and polite in dealing with others, but he really couldn't be polite to Princess Linlang who was forcing him to choose her as his marriage partner.

The first time they met, she broke into his tent carrying a big sword and wanted to exchange martial arts with him without saying a word. He was annoyed by her and agreed to set up a fighting arena in the army. The final result was obvious. He easily snatched the sword from her hand, but in the end, he did not use much force because he remembered that she was the princess chosen by Dong Xuan to marry.

Otherwise, he would have knocked this clingy princess down the first time they met.

"I won't be as unreasonable as some people. You are the one who should reflect on yourself in the face of the overall situation. As long as you behave yourself, I can tolerate it no matter how difficult it is to accept."

"What do you mean by that? I have never been unreasonable. It is you who are petty and have no tolerance for others. You are simply not worthy of being a general. You are just a scheming villain who cannot be reasoned with."

Rong Lou sneered and then kept silent, but even if he didn't say anything, Linlang would be so angry that she grimaced.

Tang Mumu and Rong Yan turned a deaf ear to them. In the beginning, they would even say a few words of comfort when the two quarreled, but now they have become accustomed to the way they get along with each other. They have been traveling hard recently and finally had a full meal, so naturally filling their stomachs is the top priority.

Tang Mumu picked up a piece of Dongpo pork and put it into Linlang's bowl, and poured her a glass of water. "We have been living in the open air for a while and have been hungry and full. It has been a long time since I had such delicious food. Even if we want to quarrel, we have to eat a full stomach to have the strength."

Linlang's characteristic is that she listens to advice. No matter how fiercely she quarrels with Ronglou, she will stop being angry as long as others give her advice. She quickly picks up the meat in the bowl and stuffs it into her mouth, filling her mouth. After swallowing the food in her mouth, she said to Tang Mumu: "Thank you, Mumu. I'm really hungry. This meat is delicious."

Rong Lou, who was sitting opposite her, couldn't help but glance at her, then frowned. How could she look like a princess when eating like this? She looked like a beggar who had been hungry for three days.

After dinner, the brothers Rong Yan and Rong Lou went to the city to rent a yard. Tang Mumu was bored staying in the room, so she went to Linlang's room to chat with her.

"Mumu?" Linlang opened the door and saw that it was Tang Mumu. Her face immediately turned pale and she quickly invited her in. "I thought it was that annoying guy who came back."

Tang Mumu sat down with Linlang and asked the question she had always wanted to ask: "Why do you have to marry the second brother? I think you hate him?"

"I do hate him." Linlang answered while pouring water for Tang Mumu. Seeing Tang Mumu frowning and not understanding, she added, "I hate him because he is a despicable person. I want to choose him as my husband because he is the only one I know in Shangjing. I am going to get married anyway, so I might as well find someone I know well. So my hatred of him has nothing to do with my marriage to him."

Linlang smiled and continued, "And there is actually another reason why I chose him. I can't beat him, but I don't want to accept it. So if I let him marry someone I hate, it will definitely make him very angry."

Tang Mumu was a little dumbfounded. This reason... why did it feel even more ridiculous than her original self?

"It's really that simple. Don't think too much. When two countries go to war, there are always winners and losers. Dong Xuan lost, so we can only blame Dong Xuan for not being as skilled as others. Because Dong Xuan lost the war, he lost the initiative. If I come to marry, I can prevent the two countries from going to war again and protect the people of the two countries. Even if it takes one or two years, it's worth it."

"I am the princess of Dongxuan Kingdom. I have been raised by the people of Dongxuan since I was born, so it is my duty and mission to marry into the Li Dynasty. I left my homeland and came to the Li Dynasty to marry not because of King Jing, but because this is my responsibility as a princess. This matter cannot be blamed on King Jing."

"But even if I had such an awareness, I would still be afraid when I came to Shangjing. Before this, I had already known King Jing. Since getting married is a fait accompli, I might as well choose him."

Tang Mumu couldn't tell what she felt at the moment. Linlang's calm words not only dispelled her previous doubts, but also made her see the true feelings of a princess.

“Linlang…”

"You don't have to sympathize with me." Linlang quickly interrupted what Tang Mumu was about to say, and continued cheerfully, "I have selfish motives to begin with. It's a fact that I can't beat Rong Lou, so I can only use things like marriage to disgust him. This is wrong of mine, but I just want to do it. He made Dong Xuan lose the battle. Although I understand that victory and defeat are common in the military, I still feel uncomfortable, so I won't feel pity for him, let alone apologize to him."

"Could there be any misunderstanding between you and my second brother? My second brother is a very nice person. It was on the way to Xiling that I saw my second brother making sarcastic remarks or even hitting a girl for the first time. This is not like him."

Linlang looked very proud. "That's right. This shows that I can really provoke him. Even though I can't beat him, as long as I can make him unhappy, it's enough. There are still so many years to come. If I can successfully make him unhappy every day, it will be a good deed."

Hearing this, Tang Mumu's mouth twitched, but she continued to ask her, "Is it because he is the commander-in-chief of the victorious army that you hate him so much?"

"How could that be?" Linlang took a sip of tea and almost spit out the tea in her mouth when she heard Tang Mumu's words. "I'm not the kind of girl who can't tell right from wrong. He can become the commander of a faction and lead the army to victory, which shows that he is a man. In the hearts of the people of Shangjing City, he should be a hero. I will not wrongly accuse a hero just because he is the princess of Dongxuan Kingdom."
