I took over after the heroine of the abusive novel ran away

On this day, Liu Shu had just come out of the palace and met the ninth prince Murong Xuan at the palace gate.

Murong Xuan was wearing a silver-white robe with a pattern of soaring clouds embroidered with gold thread on the chest. He had a white jade belt inlaid with gold tied around his waist, which made him look slender.

His hair was tied up high with an exquisitely carved jade headband. He held a folding fan in his hand, tapping it lightly on his palm, and stood at the palace gate with a calm posture.

Seeing Liu Shu coming out, Murong Xuan slightly turned sideways and gave her a smile as warm as the spring breeze.

"General Liu~"

To be honest, Murong Xuan is good-looking, and after dressing up, he is a handsome man.

But~

This voice? Liu Shu couldn't help but shudder. Oh my god! If I didn't know, I would have thought it was a eunuch in the palace.

Liu Shu had a stern face and bowed to him, "Hello, Your Highness!"

"General Liu, there's no need to be so polite."

Murong Xuan reached out and supported Liu Shu's arm, motioning her to get up.

"General Liu has worked hard these days and has been very busy. I feel really bad for seeing that General Liu has lost a lot of weight. General Liu should take care of his health!"

As he spoke, Murong Xuan opened his folding fan, and saw two lines of poetry written in a flamboyant style on it.

My fair lady, a gentleman is so good!

Liu Shu: ...

This idiot, everyone knows that he wants to use the beauty trap to win over Liu Shu.

But, I don't know where he learned this method from, it's so weird.

Although he is good-looking, Liu Shu has no interest in him at all.

Look at the movements of waving the fan, looking at people sideways, and shaking the head. It's really... too greasy and makes people indigestion.

Murong Xuan had no idea how disgusting he was, he felt great about himself.

He interpreted Liu Shu's speechlessness as being so bewitched by him that she couldn't speak.

He continued to look up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, raised his eyebrows, and raised the corners of his mouth in a smile that he thought was evil, and continued to speak in a choked voice.

"I heard that the peaches in Yunxi Mountain are ripe. I wonder if I would have the honor to go there with General Liu to enjoy them."

Liu Shu's fists stiffened, her face twisted slightly, she took a deep breath, and tried hard not to punch him in the face.

Other princes worked hard on their careers, but Murong Xuan spent his whole life trying to be funny!

Ninth Prince: See if I can charm you to death.

Liu Shu: Ugh~

"Your Highness the Ninth Prince, if you have something to say, just say it directly." Liu Shu didn't want to be bullied, so she went straight to the point.

Murong Xuan's face froze for a moment, then he turned the fan over as if nothing had happened and faced Liu Shu.

There are wood in the mountains and branches in the wood, and the heart is happy and the king does not know.

A line of poetry that flowed gracefully suddenly caught Liu Shu's eyes.

"General Liu, I just admire you and want to have a good talk with you. Do you have time?"

Murong Xuan looked to the side, indicating that this was not a good place to talk.

Liu Shu couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Bao! Don't look at me, as if everyone knows your purpose. All the civil and military officials in the court can see that you want to win her over!

The Thirteenth Prince's supporters, and even the Queen Mother have tried to test her several times, but Murong Xuan still wants to slowly implement his beauty trap.

He is also a talent.

"Your Highness, Lord Pei has invited me to Juyuan Tower for tea, so if you have anything to say, you may as well speak up."

Murong Xuan's face changed slightly. Lord Pei has always supported the Thirteenth Prince. He asked Liu Shu to have tea with him. Could it be that he also wanted to win over Liu Shu? No, he must not let that old villain get there first.

Murong Xuan coughed lightly and no longer cared about trying to be cool. He looked at Liu Shu with a serious face.

"General Liu, I have been attracted to you for a long time and want to marry you. I wonder if you are willing."

Liu Shu clenched the sword in her hand and looked at Murong Xuan coldly.

Happy?

If he had made a deal with her directly, she would have looked up to him, but he insisted on saying that he was pleased. Was he trying to save face, or was he treating her like a fool?

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. You are a good person, but I have no idea about you."

Liu Shu gave him a nice guy card and rejected him directly and straightforwardly.

Murong Xuan's smile froze and his face suddenly darkened.

"If there is nothing else, I will not disturb His Highness the Ninth Prince."

Liu Shu bowed and walked past Murong Xuan out of the palace.

Before he had taken two steps, Murong Cheng reacted and quickly caught up with him. Perhaps he knew that his strategies were useless, so he was much more honest this time.

"Wait, General Liu, the court is arguing over the choice of the new emperor. I can promise you that if General Liu is willing to support me, I am willing to marry him as my queen. Don't worry, I won't go back on my word like my seventh brother."

Murong Xuan lowered his voice and said that while he was painting a rosy picture for Liu Shu, he did not forget to bring out the master of painting rosy pictures from before and step on him.

Liu Shu paused, turned her head to look at Murong Xuan who had a sincere face, rolled her eyes, and said jokingly with a smile in her eyes.

"Really? Your Highness, do you dare to swear to marry me as your queen, to be with me forever, to never betray me, and to obey me in everything? Otherwise, you will be struck by lightning and die of fright."

Swear? The Ninth Prince was stunned and stopped talking.

Although he had not yet become emperor, all his places in the harem had been given away.

Well, when he was trying to win people over, he promised that he would marry their daughters. High positions in the harem, such as Imperial Concubine, Virtuous Concubine, Shufei Concubine, and Virtuous Concubine, had basically been given out.

But even if he didn't give it out, he couldn't agree to Uncle Liu's request!

Who can be an emperor and be together for life and have her do everything for him? Liu Shu must be crazy to make such a request.

Murong Xuan also thought about deceiving Liu Shu first and then doing it after he ascended the throne.

But he suddenly thought of the cause of Murong Cheng's death and immediately dismissed the idea.

Rumor has it that Liu Shu was born with a phoenix destiny, and Murong Cheng was punished by heaven because he broke his promise to Liu Shu and went back on his word to marry someone else.

Rumors may be true or false, but because Murong Cheng died of fright from a thunderbolt on the day she was enthroned as queen, many people believe in this rumor.

The reason why Murong Xuan wanted to marry Liu Shu as his queen was not only because of the power Liu Shu held, but also this reason.

But now Liu Shu asked him to swear.

Well, he really didn't dare. He could have casually uttered such a thing as an oath before, but now he didn't dare, especially to Liu Shu. After all, there was the lesson of Murong Xuan.

This woman Liu Shu is a bit weird.

Murong Xuan's expression kept changing and he didn't answer for a long time. Liu Shu smiled and walked past Murong Xuan to go out of the palace.

This time, Murong Xuan did not call her again.

Looking at Liu Shu's leaving back, Murong Xuan sighed somewhat dejectedly.

He thought bitterly that rumors were just rumors and could not be believed, such as that Liu Shu was born to be a phoenix.

Humph, why don’t they just say that Liu Shu was born to be a dragon?

If Liu Shu was born with the destiny of a phoenix, then no one in their Ye Dynasty could become emperor. He didn't believe that any man could fulfill the requirements set by Liu Shu.
