Chapter 220, This Concubine Wants to Be Cool18
Shuyan Shangshen naturally knew that Teng Wuzhe had just come to the roof of her house. But he also pretended not to know.
But she was also curious about how this old fox, who didn't understand the relationship between men and women, would deal with Liu's brother breaking off the engagement.
In the evening, Liu Yuanbo took Shuyan to the Prince Regent's Mansion.
He went there when it was dark because he was afraid of being seen.
The brother and sister both put on their hats. As soon as they entered the house, the housekeeper greeted them, "Is the in-law son here?"
Liu Yuanbo hummed coldly and asked, "I'm looking for your prince."
The housekeeper's heart skipped a beat, and he secretly thought that his prince was actually guarding against Young Master Liu.
So he said respectfully, "If you go back to your in-laws, our prince is not in the house."
Liu Yuanbo was stunned, "What? Not here? Then where did he go?"
The butler said respectfully, "Old slave, I don't know that when the prince is busy, he doesn't tell us his whereabouts."
Liu Yuanbo expressed dissatisfaction with this.
Why did he feel that Teng Wuzhe was deliberately avoiding him?
Or is it that Teng Wuzhe already knew that their brother and sister were coming to break off their engagement, so he hid on purpose?
Liu Yuanbo thought it was very possible, so he asked the housekeeper angrily, "Tell me the truth, is Teng Wuzhe hiding from us?"
The butler had a serious look on his face, opened his eyes and said nonsense, "What are you talking about, my in-laws? Our prince is really busy with many things to do every day."
"Besides, Your Majesty is young. Your Majesty has to be busy both at home and outside. He has to be so busy that he can't stay home."
Liu Yuanbo felt that this was correct.
But he still felt vaguely weird.
But Lord Shuyan noticed that Teng Wuzhe, the old fox, was clearly hiding from them.
So she didn't ask any questions, took Liu Yuanbo and went back.
After returning to the Liu Mansion, Lord Shuyan said to Liu Yuanbo, "Brother, since the prince is not here, let's just run away from the wedding. He is not here anyway."
After hearing this, Liu Yuanbo hesitated, "Like this? Okay?"
Will you be arrested and imprisoned again if you defy the decree and escape from marriage? He was scared.
Lord Shuyan smiled and said, "Then let's hide in disguise and live in seclusion in the mountains and forests so that they can't find us."
Teng Wuzhe eavesdropped on the rooftop and hummed, "Want to escape? You are so beautiful."
Liu Yuanbo also wanted to leave the capital. He thought carefully about the possibility of escape.
He said distressedly, "But now that Teng Wuzhe's power is everywhere, how can we avoid his eyes and leave?"
Shuyan went to the gods and said, "Then, shall we take the water route?"
Liu Yuanbo thought about it and felt that it was not impossible. "There are many people on the waterway. If you walk fast, it's not impossible to get out."
So the brother and sister began to discuss in whispers.
Teng Wuzhe rarely acted as an eavesdropper in his life. Now it's all over the place.
After Shuyan Shangshen and Liu Yuanbo discussed the details, they were ready to go back to the room.
Teng Wuzhe followed him in the dark.
Anyway, if he doesn't take care of Liu Jinyi's little girl today, he won't be able to sleep well.
So the dignified regent quietly went to the boudoir of the eldest lady of the Liu family and became a gentleman for a time.
Shuyan Shangshen knew that he had come in, but he still pretended not to know anything.
She sat at the table and slowly ate the buns she bought at night.
While eating, he sighed.
"Why…"
Seeing her sigh, Teng Wuzhe didn't know what she was thinking, so he fell in front of her.
Ask her in a low voice, "What are you sighing for?"
Lord Shuyan pretended to be surprised and wanted to scream, but Teng Wuzhe was one step ahead of her and covered her mouth.
"Shut up! Don't scream."
Shuyan Shang Shenjiao glared at him, bit his hand angrily, "Let go~"
Teng Wuzhe let go of his hand covering her mouth and patiently coaxed, "What are you talking about?" Why don't you marry him? Seriously.
Shuyan Shangshen snorted at him, "You don't like me, then why should I marry you."
"Besides, you don't know how to care for others. If I marry you, can you care for others?"
Teng Wuzhe was stunned by her question, "Me."
He wanted to say that if he didn't like her, how could he marry her.
It's just that he never quite knew how to coax girls. Now when he met her and asked about the homes of these little girls, he didn't know how to respond.
Lord Shuyan knew that he was not unkind to Liu Jinyi, so he came over and pulled his sleeve and said, "After the prince marries the slave family, will he be good to the slave family?"
Teng Wuzhe looked at that bright little face and said "yes", which was regarded as an agreement.
Shuyan Shangshen took his big hand again and said, "Then, from now on, I will be the only prince, okay?"
"Just you?"
Does this mean he is not allowed to have other women?
Teng Wuzhe didn't mind that she was the only woman, but which man in this world didn't have three wives and four concubines? There are very few houses with only one mistress.
She hadn't even gone through the door yet, she dared to make such a request, and she wasn't afraid of being criticized by the world?
Shuyan Shangshen said with a serious face, "I don't like the mess in the backyard, and my natal family has also lost. If the prince brings in other women in the future, won't the slave family be bullied to death?"
Wasn't Liu Jinyi killed by his women in the previous life?
Teng Wuzhe didn't expect this.
He wanted to say, no one dares to bully his woman.
But there are a lot of troubles in the backyard, and he has experienced it himself. So he thought about it and asked her, "If I don't agree, will you run away from the marriage?"
Shuyan Shangshen coughed and said, "Actually, my brother hopes that I will marry an ordinary man. From now on, I will be monogamous and have two children. It will be better to lead an ordinary happy life."
But if you marry into the palace, you will have to participate in many things in the future.
Teng Wuzhe didn't expect this.
He originally thought that his woman would just enjoy herself in the backyard, but he forgot that as a princess, she would have to have some social activities in the future.
But this is not the reason for her to run away from marriage.
He really didn't understand, "You are a lady after all, and you have all the proper etiquette. Your mother should have taught you a lot about socializing with the ladies of the court, so what are you afraid of?"
Lord Shuyan pretended to be pitiful and said, "Those are those. What I really want is the prince's consideration and concern."
"For example, if you are busy outside every day in the future, will you tell me what you are busy with and how long you are busy for, so that I don't have to worry?"
"Or, when I miss you, can you stay with me for a while? So that I won't be so lonely?"
Teng Wuzhe really felt that her demands were too many, and they almost climbed to the top of his head.
How could he tell her casually about important matters in the court?
Besides, if you are not allowed to participate in politics in your backyard, how can you say many things?
As for accompanying her as she said, it is even more impossible.
Now that the emperor is still young, he has to deal with many things personally. Even if he wants to spend time with her, he doesn't have much time.
So he couldn't do any of these things.
Seeing his face turning greener and greener, Shuyan Shangshen sighed.
She also knew that her request might be too harsh.
After all, this was ancient times, and it was common for men to be busy and not go home.
Especially as a regent, he was too busy to be in a hurry, and was even said to find time to spend time with her.
So after she made these requests, she felt guilty.
But she didn't really want Teng Wuzhe to do everything. She just wanted to test the regent's sincerity for Liu Jinyi.
