Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

The next day, Chu Ning asked the servants in the mansion to prepare a pot of good tea early.

Just after the hour of Chen, the sound of horse hooves was heard outside the palace.

Shen Wanying and Feng Mulan came together.

The former was dressed in a purple palace dress, with three thousand black hair draped behind her, and two golden hairpins adorning her head. With her beautiful face, she looked very noble.

The latter is still wearing a tight suit, with her hair tied together and piled behind her head. At first glance, she looks very youthful and beautiful!

"Greetings, Princess. The prince is waiting for you in the hall. Please come this way." The guard at the door led Shen Wanying into the mansion.

At this moment, Shen Wanying looked like the mistress of the house. She looked around the house from time to time and made arrangements for the upcoming engagement banquet.

Soon, they arrived at the hall and smelled a faint fragrance before entering.

When I stepped in, I saw Chu Ning holding a cup of tea and drinking it leisurely, looking very comfortable.

Feng Mulan rolled her eyes.

I don't know how this guy convinced Wanying to agree to help her and even asked me to come along.

While thinking, Chu Ning smiled and picked up the teacup: "Come over here, both of you..."

Before she could finish her words, Feng Mulan snorted coldly, took a quick step forward, and drank the other cup of tea in one breath.

This action, which was like drinking like a cow, stunned Chu Ning.

At this time, Feng Mulan casually placed the teacup on the table and sneered, "Why, you only prepared two teacups, don't you welcome me?"

If Chu Ning dared to say no to his unruly look, she would definitely give him a good beating.

Chu Ning's mouth twitched.

He had seen powerful women before, but this was the first time he had seen such a tough woman.

Shaking his head, Chu Ning smiled and said, "I didn't expect Miss Feng to come along, but I do have something important to discuss with the princess today, so please wait here for a while, Miss Feng. I will go to the backyard to talk with the princess."

Go to the backyard and talk inside the house?

What does this guy want to do?

Feng Mulan glared at him, "Don't even think about it! I'm telling you, as long as I'm here, I won't let you touch Wanying even a finger!"

Although Shen Wanying was a little surprised by Chu Ning's behavior today, she also understood that Chu Ning must have something important to talk to her about, otherwise he would not be waiting for her here.

After all, Chu Ning said that he would be very busy during this period, so letting Chu Ning stay in the mansion must be no small matter.

"Mulan, I want to talk to the prince alone."

"No, he has bad intentions towards you, I have to keep an eye on him!"

Even though Shen Wanying tried to persuade her personally, Feng Mulan still looked determined.

Shen Wanying raised her eyebrows, feeling quite helpless. She knew her friend's character better than anyone else, and once she made up her mind, it would be difficult to change it.

Seeing this, Chu Ning laughed inwardly.

It seems that this most talented woman in the Great Chu also has her moments of distress!

You still have to do it yourself.

Chu Ning shrugged: "Well, since you want to stay, then listen to how the prince and the princess discuss the engagement banquet."

In Feng Mulan's surprised eyes, Chu Ning turned to look at Shen Wanying and said seriously: "The people attending this engagement banquet are all well-known people, so the seating arrangement cannot be wrong.

In your opinion, should I invite the Crown Prince and other brothers? If they come, how should I arrange their seats? And the envoys from other countries..."

Feng Mulan couldn't listen any more and interrupted him halfway through the conversation: "Alright, alright, I don't want to hear this. If you want to talk, go ahead, but I'll only give you half an incense stick of time!"

Chu Ning smiled slightly and winked at Shen Wanying, who followed him into the backyard room.

Along the way, Shen Wanying didn't say a word, but just looked at Chu Ning's back with strange eyes.

When they got inside, before Chu Ning could say anything, Shen Wanying took the initiative to speak: "It's really unexpected that you can cure Mulan."

Chu Ning chuckled and said slowly: "For someone with a straightforward personality like her, we just need to temper her temper."

After a pause, he took out the letter he received last night from his sleeve and handed it over.

"Look, someone secretly passed this letter to this king last night."

Shen Wanying took the letter with a puzzled look on her face. When she opened it, her puzzled expression became even more intense.

"Strange, someone in Kyoto actually warned you?"

Shen Wanying looked at Chu Ning with strange eyes: "The letter said that there was danger at the engagement party, and it was most likely from those literati. Your Highness asked me to discuss this matter. Could it be that he wanted me to teach Your Highness some poems in advance?"

Chu Ning laughed, raised his thumb and nodded, saying: "The princess is really amazing, she actually guessed the reason why I came to see you.

Those scholars are looking for trouble with me just to embarrass me, but if you teach me a few poems in advance, I think it will be more than enough to deal with these people. "

There are times when this guy needs help from me!

Shen Wanying raised the corners of her mouth slightly, a rare smile appearing on her face.

Suddenly, she smiled like a flower!

Chu Ning only felt his eyes brighten, as if the whole world lit up, and there was only Shen Wanying in his eyes!

But at this moment, Shen Wanying's words brought him back to reality.

"Why should I help His Highness?"

Shen Wanying stared at Chu Ning with a half-smile: "Even if those people are looking for trouble, they will go to your Highness. It has nothing to do with me."

He cheated the Shen family out of so much food and forced me to agree to the engagement. I don't want to help him.

Besides, Chu Ning has been too arrogant recently, and we must suppress his arrogance.

If I don’t agree, I will wait for Chu Ning to beg me!

Unexpectedly, Chu Ning chuckled, and suddenly came close to Shen Wanying, saying with a smile: "I am being bullied, and I am not the only one who is embarrassed!

Just think about it, the man engaged to the most talented woman is actually someone who doesn't understand poetry. Who would be embarrassed if this got out?

Anyway, I am born in the common people, so I am thick-skinned. These things are not a big deal to me, but it may not be the same for you, the princess, right?"

The smile on Shen Wanying's face gradually froze.

Although I know that this is what Chu Ning said, it does make sense.

Once Chu Ning was stumped by someone's question, she, the most talented woman in the Great Chu, would definitely be ridiculed.

This guy is so despicable. He actually used his power to threaten me!

Taking a deep breath, Shen Wanying tried to calm herself down.

She didn't know why, but every time she met Chu Ning, she found it difficult to calm down.

But when she came to her senses, Shen Wanying found that Chu Ning was actually standing in front of her, and her mouth and nose were full of Chu Ning's masculine scent.

The strong smell of hormones hit her in the face, which made Shen Wanying, who had never had close contact with a man, blush slightly and quickly took two steps back.

"I will arrange for the people in the mansion to buy food first. As for the matter of poetry, I will talk about it after I finish dealing with the affairs in the mansion!"

After leaving behind these words, Shen Wanying fled.

But as soon as she walked out of the room, she saw Feng Mulan coming into the yard.

When Feng Mulan saw Shen Wanying coming out, she was about to step forward to speak to her, but she found that Shen Wanying looked flustered and her face was slightly red.

This look, could it be...

Feng Mulan was immediately furious, her whole body burst into a rage, she drew her sword from her waist and roared:

"Chu Ning, you bastard, how dare you flirt with Wanying!"

After saying that, Feng Mulan rushed into the house with a sword in hand.
