Your Highness insists that I marry him

In the past few days, the whole Nanlong City has been spreading rumors about how His Royal Highness Xue Qi was so brave that he personally lured the ghost dragon away for the sake of the people in this city, and then wiped it out in one fell swoop.

After that night, the dragon's head was hung on the city gate for all passers-by to watch.The more frightening this ghost dragon's face, the more stable the hearts of the people watching, and the more convinced they are of the majesty of the royal family.

Everyone felt that there was nothing in this world that could defeat the royal family.The beast disaster will be wiped out, and good days are coming.

But the common people don't know that Her Royal Highness is frantically looking for someone.

At the beginning, Siyi was naturally confident, and the pair of swallow rings seemed to follow the official road in a regular manner, and hurried all the way to the adjacent city.When she arrived on the bone tool, she easily stopped a carriage going to a neighboring city.

But when she walked in, she realized that it was clearly a cargo truck.She didn't believe in evil, and turned over all the places on the carriage that could hide people, which made the coachman tremble with fear.Finally, the Shuangyan ring stuck on a piece of wood was found under the carriage.

The pair of swallow rings were actually opened and re-locked by Na Mu Yong!The princess's face turned black, and she cut off the wheel of the carriage, and then took out the locked Shuangyan ring.She suppressed her anger and returned to Nanlong City, and immediately summoned Mrs. Guo.

Seeing the mayor's wife, the princess immediately slammed the pair of swallow rings and threw them to the ground.

"Did Mrs. Guo reveal the solution to the pair of swallow rings to others?"

"Princess, please be aware, I swear I never told anyone."

The princess pointed to the double swallow ring on the ground. "Then what's going on?"

Mrs. Guo picked it up, and after investigating it, she was surprised, and even forgot the princess's anger for a while. "This is indeed my Shuangyan ring. Not only did this person untie it, but he also destroyed the internal formation afterwards. Now this ring can no longer be undone."

This is not what the princess wanted to hear, "Mrs. Guo once said that this ring is used for tracking, and it is a foolproof artifact. Why, it turned out to be such a waste that can be destroyed so easily."

Only then did Mrs. Guo apologize, "Your Highness, the foundation of the bone vessel is the rune formation. If you meet a master of the formation, it can indeed be broken."

"What formation master? It was Mu Yong who broke the pair of swallow rings!"

"No wonder..." Mrs. Guo suddenly realized, "Master Mu is indeed a genius."

The princess almost choked to death, well, so she underestimated the enemy.

Unexpectedly, the wife of the city lord would still greatly admire Mu Yong in front of her.

"Many of the methods Master Mu said will bring about earth-shaking changes in the art of bone tools. No matter how well the high-level bone tools are made, the manpower of the nobles is limited. Only the lower-level bone tools are more lethal, and the officers and soldiers can reduce casualties. It is more efficient to wipe out animal disasters and benefit the common people. Unfortunately, Master Mu is very talented, so I can't learn his method personally."

"It's not just me. According to Master Mu, many talented people can't learn his bone art. In time, as long as Master Mu is willing to continue to study, his newly created bone art will definitely break the current family. The dominance of the situation makes the technique of bone tools more flourishing."

The princess suppressed her temper and listened for a while, her face became even more unpredictable.Mrs. Guo herself was not of a high family background, and after marrying the city lord, she has always attached great importance to the safety of the people at the bottom.Now that she dares to take the risk to speak for Mu Yong, why can't Siyi fail to hear the sincerity in her words.

Such a situation was beyond her expectation.In the end, she waved her hand and let the lady of the city lord go down.

"His Royal Highness..." Wei An approached and saluted.

"There's no need to be too polite..." Siyi sighed. "How is Xue Qi?"

"His Highness Qi's injury is not serious. However, he is still in the basement. He refuses to come out. He also refuses to speak."

The princess rubbed her eyebrows and sighed again. "What about the queen mother?"

Wei An could only shake his head.

"I see……"

Wei An hesitated, "Princess, do you want to order the arrest of Mu Yong?"

"Oh. I'm not arrested, I'm afraid I have to invite you." The princess's face showed some anger. "You said that Mu Yong is a common man, but you are wrong. This man is not only greedy for power, but also ruthless. He is not on the run, he is waiting for me to give in. As long as I give in, he may come out by himself .”

"I think that this Mu Yong is not an unfaithful person. Why don't Her Royal Highness give him a chance to work for the princess?"

The princess raised her eyes in surprise, she didn't expect Wei An to speak for Mu Yong. "You go down first. I'll think about it..."

Wei An had no choice but to back down.

Gui Lan walked over and held Siyi's shoulder.

"Would you like to talk to His Highness Qi?"

Si Yi slowed down her tone. "I've been there, and I told him that I'll get Mu Yong back. Guess what he said?"

Gui Lan looked at the princess and said cautiously, "Is he afraid that Mu Yong will be unhappy when he comes back?"

Siyi was stunned, "You guessed it roughly."

"Tell me what he thinks. I don't care about myself, I know I'm thinking about others." Siyi's face was a little unhappy again. "As the prince of the royal family, he voluntarily bowed his head and ears to a commoner, and bowed his knees. He didn't make Mu Yong unhappy. Heh. It was my conditions that made Mu Yong dissatisfied."

Gui Lan stroked Siyi's beautiful hair, before she could speak, the princess began to think on her own again.

"I underestimate Mu Yong. He can kill Hua Han and break the Shuangyan ring. He is also a talent. It's just that this person is so ruthless. I'm afraid he is using Xue Qi. You can say that Xue Qi can't be liked by someone else. ."

Gui Lan finally smiled helplessly. "Your Highness. This is not to say that you can change it." She squatted down, raised her head and looked at Siyi, "You say that you are cruel, and there must be someone who likes it."

Gui Lan lowered her eyes again, "If you love someone, you will be humbled unconsciously. As long as I can hear you say that you like it, there is nothing else to consider."

In the end, the air in the princess's heart deflated like a balloon.She let go of her thoughts and took Guilan's hand.

"As I said, this marriage is just a cover-up. The royal family has always had no freedom to marry. This is the most balanced way."

Gui Lan raised her head and smiled, "I know. To be admired by the princess is Gui Lan's lifelong blessing."

the other side……

At this time, Mu Yong had already arrived at a village by the sea along the opposite direction of the official road.

He stood at the port, looking at the large and small ships in front of him, and the people who came and went to unload the coolies, and he was in a daze for a while.

The scene made him feel a strange familiarity.Because the small town he was born in is also next to a port.Untalented men carry goods in the wind and sun every day, and there are tea stalls with tattered benches everywhere on the street.Going further into the alley, there will still be those half-aged ladies who still have charm, smeared and painted to attract passing boat passengers.

Mu Yong couldn't help standing here for a long time.Fortunately, no one looked at him more.At this time, Mu Yong had already thrown away the bloody noble clothes, and now he was wearing a rough and inconspicuous cloth.Although this dress was bought temporarily from a farmer, it doesn't fit well.But this lack of fit made Mu Yong more properly blend into this poor crowd.

"You want to go to sea by boat?"

Mu Yong came back to his senses and saw a dark and thin old man talking to him.At this time, the weather has turned hot and the sun is getting bigger.The old man was sweating profusely, holding a large porcelain bowl with a gap in his hand, drinking tea to quench his thirst.

"With this plan..."

"A while ago, when the beast disaster was severe, many people had to leave. There was a boatload of people in two days. Now many people don't want to leave, and it may take a few days to get all the people together." The old man said calmly, pointing Pointing to a passenger ship in the distance, "You have to find them."

Mu Yong nodded, "Thank you..."

"Young man, think it over again. This Nanlong City City Lord is a good one. Moreover, His Highness Qi is the one who is blessed and blessed. After he comes, even the ghosts will be wiped out." The old man said Xue Qi, He also bowed to the sky, "I think this day will get better and better. You young people will not be more miserable when you leave your hometown. Let your parents worry about you."

After the old Chinese spoke earnestly, he put the porcelain bowl back to the tea stand, and counted out a copper coin in a humble way.Afterwards, he knocked on his somewhat hunched body, and walked out of the shady place, intending to return to the line of carrying goods.

"Old man..." Mu Yong stopped him loudly, "I wonder if I can stay with you for a few nights before the passenger ship departs? I will pay for it."

The old man seemed a little surprised, standing in the sun, hesitated for a while before saying, "Aren't you going to stay at the inn?"

"I'm not used to living in an inn." Mu Yong didn't explain much.

"This..." The old man looked at Mu Yong, a little embarrassed, "Then come and see with me first."

Mu Yong followed the old man back to a soil-cultivated house with a yard.First, an old woman with gray temples walked out.Seeing Mu Yong, he was also stunned.The old man can make up his mind at home, so he hastily explained a few words.When the old woman heard Mu Yong said that she would pay, she didn't say anything, and walked back to a big wooden bucket in the yard and started washing clothes.There are a lot of clothes, and it seems that they are also found jobs.

The old man took Mu Yong into a simple room in the side room, which only had a kang and a cabinet.Although worn out, it was clean.

"This used to be my son's room." The old man sighed. "He was a backup soldier who died in the animal disaster a month ago. Don't you mind?"

Mu Yong understood a little bit, no wonder the old man is still working hard at this age. "do not mind……"

"That's good..." The old man smiled a little simple, the wrinkles on his face squeezed together, "Then you can live."

Mu Yong took out a gold coin and put it in the old man's hand.

"This! There are too many..."

"You can cook for me too. Eat something good..."

"Hey, this. Not so much."

"You keep it..." Mu Yong pretended to be impatient and handed it to him.

"Hey..." The old man finally took it, and then raised his head and asked. "Young man, were you hit by ghost fire a few days ago?"

Mu Yong froze for a moment, then looked down and saw his scarred left hand. "No, it's not a ghost."

The old man glanced at Mu Yong's expression, didn't ask any more questions, closed the door and went out.

Mu Yong sat on the kang, stretched out his left hand, and rolled up his sleeve.He stared blankly at the scars on his body for a while.

There were inexplicably more permanent marks on his body, which he didn't mind at first.After a while, I got used to it.Looking at it now, it actually reminds me of Xue Qi.

Mu Yong smiled wryly.I only hope that he can return to that fool's side, and coax Xue Qi to forgive him.

He has already made up his mind to stay at the port for the next few days to scout for news.

The best situation is naturally that the princess is willing to renegotiate with him.No matter how good the princess is, without him, Xiaoqi cannot play the role of a king in front of the nobles.Moreover, in terms of bone tools, he is also confident that the princess will recognize his talent.As long as the princess is willing to invite him back to the palace and treat him with courtesy, he can return to Xue Qi's side in a legitimate capacity.

In the worst case, of course, this move angered the princess.

If the princess wants to punish him recklessly.He had to get on the boat directly and leave Longwu Kingdom immediately.

Mu Yong took out Hua Han's storage bag.There are many bone tools and demon pills inside.Now that he has mastered the art of bone tools and has the capital to prove himself, even if he needs to escape to another country, it will not be the same as before.But now Mu Yong doesn't want to think about this possibility, he doesn't even want to go to the passenger ship to ask about the sailing date.

Instead, he took out a Hua family's high-end bone vessel and began to study the runes inside.The more cards in his hand, the better his chances of winning against the princess.

Mu Yong studied it for a while, until his eyes were sore, he closed his eyes and continued to nourish his meridians with spiritual power.He could barely feel the pain from the turbulent flow of spiritual energy.But that day to kill Hua Han, he used too much force, so he felt a little uncomfortable again.After he had almost rested, Mu Yong continued to study.

In this way, the two phases alternated, and time passed quickly.

When the sun was about to set, a seven or eight-year-old boy opened the door. "Guest? Grandpa asked you to eat."

Before Mu Yong could speak, the child looked at the things in his hand in surprise.

"You know bone implements!"

The child ran away with a bang, and then hurried back, holding a broken low-level bone implement in his hand. "This is from Dad. It was broken when I was fighting a monster." The boy looked lonely, and then looked at him expectantly. "Can it be repaired?"

The old woman from before walked in, looked at Mu Yong embarrassedly, and went to pull the grandson again. "Tie Zi, don't make trouble. How can a broken bone vessel be repaired?"

"I'm talented. If I have bone tools, I can also fight monsters. I can feed grandpa and grandma."

The old woman looked at her childish grandson, feeling relieved and distressed.I was speechless for a while.

Mrs. Guo once said that this bone vessel can save people.It was only at this moment that the weight of her words was truly presented in front of Mu Yong.The broken bones that had passed through his hands have now become dilapidated families.

Mu Yong wanted to help them repair the bone artifact.But he also had the urge to do more.He can make all the low-end bone tools in the entire Longwu Kingdom better, and he can also run a large school, including countless children with low talents like this boy.Let them know that what they can do in this life is not just relying on a low-end bone tool, exchanging their lives for money.Poor talents, as long as they are willing to work hard, they can also find their own way in bone tools and change their fate from then on.

He suddenly felt that there was still a lot he could do for Longwu Kingdom.And the gamble in front of him is not just the competition between him and the princess, but also the countless low-level people in the middle.

Mu Yong sank his mind, and lived with this family for a week, devoting himself to studying the Hua family's bone vessels and keeping an eye on the royal family's movements every day.

Until he waited for the news of the queen's death.

Mu Yong knew that the princess would not be able to sit still.
