"But now that the emperor comes to see my daughter every night, isn't he forcing me? If my daughter doesn't accept the emperor, are you going to pester her until she agrees?" Meng Shu continued.
The emperor fell silent upon hearing this.
It seemed that this girl really didn't like him at all, otherwise she wouldn't have pointed it out first and cut off his hope.
The emperor had to admit that Meng Shu, a girl who had grown up in Guiyun City, was really different from most women. Especially compared to the noble girls of these aristocratic families in the capital, Jian Shu was very different.
The capital is at the feet of the emperor, and the emperor is a superior being to the ladies. If they knew that they were favored by the emperor, they would definitely enter the palace happily.
Facing him as an emperor, not to mention trying to please him, at least he will treat him as an emperor and not dare to make mistakes.
As for Meng Shu?
She grew up in Guiyun City, where she had no restrictions since she was a child. It was a place where the mountains were high and the emperor was far away.
Therefore, this girl has never been afraid of him. Even if she knew that he was an emperor, she would still reject him as long as she didn't like him, and more than once.
The key is, even if he, the emperor, deigned to be noble and climbed over the wall to find her for more than half a month, she was not moved at all and never thought of accepting him.
This made the emperor feel helpless and frustrated.
This is the first time in his life that he takes something so seriously.
I came here full of joy, but was rejected by others.
At this point, the emperor felt that he should give up.
But looking at the woman beside him, he felt unwilling to do so.
Perhaps it was because he had been educated by the prince since he was a child and grew up in an extremely repressive environment. He had followed the rules since he was a child and did not dare to take a wrong step. When he saw such a lively and unrestrained woman like Meng Shu, who was not even afraid of him, he I find it fresh, interesting, and even envious of her, so I want to keep her by my side.
With her here, his future life will not be like the past, a pool of stagnant water.
But she didn't agree and wasn't happy, and he had promised her not to force her.
You can't just keep your word!
The emperor was silent for a long time before saying: "I understand what you mean, Shu'er... Do you really not like me at all? Is it true that no matter what I do, you will never accept me?"
Although she refused, the emperor was still unwilling to give up and asked shamelessly.
This is the first time in his life that he is so "shameless".
Of course, he has no face to speak of since he has been looking for this girl for more than half a month.
Meng Shu was slightly startled after hearing the emperor's words.
Doesn't she like the emperor at all?
Meng Shu herself was not sure.
The emperor is undoubtedly very outstanding. As an emperor, it goes without saying that he is capable. He also knows martial arts and is not the kind of man who has no strength to restrain a chicken.
Meng Shu grew up in Guiyun City since he was a child. Of course, he admires strong men with strong martial arts skills and those who are invincible on the battlefield.
The emperor can be considered this kind of person, although he has never been on the battlefield.
Secondly, he had a great temperament and never acted like an emperor in front of her.
Moreover, he is also good-looking.
Meng Shu didn't think there was anything wrong with her thinking this way. A man would look at his face when looking for a wife, but wouldn't the same be true for a woman?
She is the eldest lady of the Duke's palace, so there is nothing wrong with wanting to find a handsome man to be her husband!
Meng Shu thought about it and realized that she was thinking wrongly.
"The Emperor is actually quite good, but my daughter... let me tell you the truth, my daughter grew up in Guiyun City and is used to being free, so she is not suitable for entering the palace."
The emperor is very good. It is impossible to say that she is not moved at all.
But she still has reason.
The palace is not suitable for her.
That's not the place for her.
Meng Shu had already made a lot of determination when she came back to fulfill her engagement.
The result turned out to be yellow.
Then, she decided to break the tradition, not marry, and go to Guiyun City to become a female general, but the emperor appeared again.
She didn't want to waver in her decision.
The emperor felt that he still had a chance.
She said she was not suitable because she felt that there were many rules and restrictions in the palace and she did not want to be restricted.
"When I resolve the matter between the Queen Mother and King Wei, I will give you a satisfactory answer." The emperor suddenly smiled.
She didn't say she hated him, that was enough.
Meng Shu felt that he didn't understand what she meant. She was about to say something when she heard the emperor say: "It will snow in a few days. The snow scenery in the foggy mountains outside the city is amazing. You haven't seen it yet, have you?"
"No." Meng Shu shook her head.
In the past, when she returned to the capital, it was always in spring when the flowers were blooming, and she did not spend the winter in the capital.
"When it snows, let's go mountain climbing and enjoy the snow together. It's getting late, so I'll go back first and you can rest early." The emperor smiled.
The boy Yan Shangfei told him that good girls are afraid of stalking men. Although he is an emperor, Meng Shu is not afraid of power and does not treat him differently just because he is an emperor. He cannot let go and can only marry like an ordinary man. My wife is so thick-skinned.
He knew Meng Shu would refuse, so... he left without giving her a chance to refuse.
When Meng Shu opened the window and took a look, the emperor had disappeared without a trace.
Does this person plan to continue to pester her?
However, Meng Shu soon heard the noise coming from outside.
At this hour, everyone is ready to go to bed, why is there such a fuss?
Could it be that the emperor was discovered?
As soon as Meng Shu had this idea in her mind, the maid guarding the door opened the door and came in.
"Miss, the assassin was found outside. The prince led his guards to catch up. Miss, you must be careful. The assassin was found outside our Youth Courtyard."
Meng Shu couldn't help but put her hand on her forehead after hearing this.
The emperor was highly skilled in martial arts, and he must have brought secret guards to cover him when he went out. How come he was still discovered?
But having said that, today is October 11th, and her eldest brother does not have to be on duty in the palace, so he will stay in the mansion tonight.
The eldest brother is highly skilled in martial arts and has been in the military since childhood, so he must be more alert than the guards.
All I can say is that the emperor is really unlucky!
Meng Shu hurriedly walked out.
Su Ye and the others hadn't rested yet, so they came over to greet them.
The master and servants came out of Fanghua Courtyard together and found a man in black surrounded by Meng Yanxing and many guards.
Meng Shu knew he was the emperor as soon as he saw his attire.
His night clothes are slightly different from ordinary ones. They are probably made of special fabric, making them harder to spot at night.
"Shu'er, this thief was discovered outside your yard. My eldest brother saw him flying out of Fanghua Yard. Did it disturb you?" Meng Yanxing turned to look at his sister and said solemnly.
"No!" Meng Shu shook her head.
"Come here, capture this thief." Meng Yanxing turned his head and ordered loudly.
Meng Shu wanted to say something, but held back.
The emperor has strong martial arts skills and someone to support him, so he should be able to escape smoothly.
