Reborn to marry the emperor, I just want to confuse the emperor and seize the throne

She was exhausted after a tiring day today. The secret guard brought news that the soldiers had indeed searched Grandma Mao's house, but in the end they found nothing and left.

She was glad that she did not bring trouble to the lives of Grandma Mao and the others.

Meng Yao was able to evade the search of officers and soldiers thanks to Xie Qiyun's help.

Jiang Fenghua got on the bed with the sword in her arms. Thinking of the scene where he forcefully kissed her, she unconsciously rubbed her lips back and forth. Has he always been so overbearing? He doesn't know how to respect others at all.

After a while, the room was suddenly filled with a familiar scent of incense. Her eyelids began to droop and she fell into a deep sleep.

Only after she fell asleep did Xie Shang sneak in.

Jiang Fenghua was so hostile to him that he had to knock her out. Only when she fell asleep would she retract her claws and act as obediently as a kitten.

After that, he held her in his arms and slept soundly.

The next day, Jiang Fenghua woke up feeling refreshed, which meant that she slept very well last night. Ever since she followed Lin Yu out, she had been too scared to sleep too deeply.

At this moment, when she felt a person lying next to her, she jumped up in surprise. Seeing that he was Xie Qiyun, Jiang Fenghua hurriedly checked his clothes and fortunately there was nothing unusual.

Jiang Fenghua was so angry that he turned over and grabbed his neck. Xie Shang was also woken up. He was too tired last night, so he fell asleep too.

"You...I..." He wanted to tell him that he hadn't had a good night's sleep in the past two months.

"Why are you in my room?" she pressed harder.

Xie Shang held her wrist, "Nothing happened between us. We just had a good sleep. I... I was also afraid that there might be some emergency and there might not be enough rooms in the inn..."

Jiang Fenghua increased her strength. She knew of course that nothing had happened between them. If he dared to do anything inappropriate to her, she would kill him with one sword.

She suddenly let go of her hand, feeling aggrieved. Why should she be manipulated at will and not be able to resist? Tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, and a feeling of helplessness and loneliness surged in her heart.

Xie Shang saw that her eyes were red, "Ruan Ruan, why are you crying?"

He also panicked and quickly got up from the bed, "I really didn't do anything, I swear, look at my clothes, they're still on me."

She said coldly: "You rely on your wealth and power to break into my room without my consent, and even have a way to make me fall asleep.

I can't kill you, but you can easily kill me or bully me. I have told you that I don't like you, but you still break into my room without permission and even bully me in public.

You didn't do anything, but what will others think? A man and a woman alone in a room, who do you think I am? Do you think I am a wild woman, a concubine you take at will? Am I an object you can manipulate at will?"

Xie Shang was dumbfounded. He explained: "Of course I treat you as my wife."

A tear fell from Jiang Fenghua's eyes, "Aren't you still not married? How can you be my wife if you're not married?"

Xie Shang has become mute, so why did he say he was her fiancé? He should have just said she was his wife.

As expected, he couldn't cover up a lie no matter how many lies he used.

Jiang Fenghua told him a lie at the beginning, and then she had to continue to make up countless lies to cover it up. This must be how she felt at the beginning!

He said, "I'm sorry, I didn't think it through. I thought..."

He thought that if he kept pestering her, she would like him. He thought that if she forgot the hurt she had suffered, he could also forget it.

"Ruan Ruan, I'm sorry." Xie Shang apologized sincerely, "You don't like me, I will never force you to like me again."

At this time, a group of people came to the inn, and someone downstairs shouted, "Isn't this Captain Wang? You're here so early, our boss hasn't even gotten up yet."

Wang Fu said, "My master knows that your boss wants to buy pearls, and he wants to come and confirm it in person. Go and invite him down!"

"Please take a seat here, sir. I will go and invite the host."

The adult who followed Wang Fu into the house forced himself upstairs, “No need.”

Shen Bingxuan, who was hiding upstairs, was stunned when she saw the person coming. Seeing this, Lin Yu whispered, "You know someone."

"The fourth prince Meng Li."

Seeing that the person who came was actually Meng Yao's brother, Lin Yu hurriedly said, "Hide first, and don't come out."

Shen Bingxuan was so scared that she trembled. She nodded and hid in the room.

Lin Yu quickly went to Meng Yao's room and asked him to hide as well.

At the same time, Xie Shang heard the sound downstairs and lowered the bed curtain, "Don't come out, I'll go see who's here."

Jiang Fenghua pulled him and asked, "Who's here?"

"I guess the person who came must be of high rank. It seems that the bait was too tempting and the fish took the bait."

After Xie Shang finished speaking, he opened the door and went out, and happened to run into Meng Li who was going upstairs.

Wang Fu saw the sponsor and said, "Mr. Jiang, you are up so early. This is my Lord Meng."

Xie Shang nodded and bowed to him: "Hello, Lord Meng, I am Xie Qiyun." Since he was surnamed Meng, it seemed that he was a relative of Meng Yao. No one expected that he was so lucky and caught a big fish.

Meng Li glanced at him and said, "Are you the merchant from the Great Zhou Dynasty who needs to buy 100,000 pearls and a large amount of jade?"

"That's me." Xie Shang deliberately sounded doubtful, and then asked, "Does Lord Meng really have a way to get top-quality pearls?"

Meng Li saw that he was full of nobility and his temperament was even more noble, and he didn't look like a liar. "The price of top-grade pearls is not low. Mr. Xie really wants 100,000 pearls."

"The more the better." Xie Shang said in a deep voice.

"I'm not afraid to tell you that it was a coincidence that Mr. Xie came here. Another jeweler happened to have a batch of pearls to deal with. I came here this time to discuss the payment method with Mr. Xie. Since the goods are not in our hands, we are just acting as a middleman." He meant to make a profit from the difference.

"Money is not a problem, but I have to inspect the goods first. If the goods are good, I can pay a part of the deposit first. Once you find all the goods, I will pay you right away. I will not give you less for your hard work, Mr. Meng."

Meng Li was still a little worried because his elder brother had instructed him to strictly check anyone entering Licheng.

"Are all the people that Mr. Xie brought with him his own people?" Meng Li asked.

"Of course, they are all the guards and escorts I hired. There are so many goods to be transported from the Great Zhou to the Southern Kingdom. I have to escort the goods back to the Great Zhou after I purchase them. There are many bandits on the road, so it would be unsafe if I don't bring more people with me."

"Can I go check it out?"

"Your Excellency."

At this time, Jiang Fenghua's charming voice came from the room, "Husband, what are you doing?"

Xie Shang was stunned. "It's my wife. I brought her to the South Country to buy jewelry. I bought the pearls to please her. Thank you for your concern..."

"Mr. Xie spent millions of gold just to win a beautiful woman's smile?" Meng Li wondered what kind of beauty could be so generous.

The next moment, Jiang Fenghua appeared barefoot in front of them. Her long black hair was casually tied up with a jade hairpin and rested on her shoulders. She was so beautiful that she was unparalleled in ancient and modern times.
