Venomous Empress Reborn

535 I Want It (6)

“Your Highness, you must be joking.” Fu Xiuyi cupped his hands. “It’s just that I am not ready yet.”

Seeing that Fu Xiuyi had rejected Prince Rui’s offer, the other princes looked a little better. However, after what happened just now, they were no longer at ease with Fu Xiuyi. Today, Fu Xiuyi said no, but who could guarantee that he would not change his mind in the future?

“How strange.” Prince Rui seemed to be very interested in Fu Xiuyi and did not let him off just because Fu Xiuyi rejected his offer. He said with a faint smile, “The Ninth Prince is not married and has no girls in mind. Why won’t you consider my offer? I see that the Ninth Prince is also a handsome young man. Don’t tell me you don’t have a girl who likes you.”

As soon as she said that, Prince Cheng, who had always been a little slow on the uptake, laughed and said, “Prince Rui, you might not know this, but in Ming Qi, there was a girl who liked our Ninth Brother. Everyone in the capital knows that.”

“Is it Shen Miao?!” Before Prince Cheng could finish speaking, Princess Ming An interrupted him anxiously. Princess Ming An had heard those rumors about Shen Miao and even mocked her back then.

“So Princess Ming An knows about it too?” Prince Cheng was a little surprised.

“Even people in the State of Qin know that Shen Miao is infatuated with Prince Ding,” Princess Ming An said gloatingly. As long as she could embarrass Shen Miao, she wouldn’t hesitate.

“That’s right.” Prince Cheng smiled and said, “Prince Rui, you might not know this, but Shen Miao is the daughter of the mighty general. She is the girl who competed with Her Highness over archery at the banquet that day.” He sighed and said, “Back then, Shen Miao was still young, so she spent all her time thinking of ways to find Ninth Brother. She knew no shame and directly told Ninth Brother that she loved him. She even made clothes, pastries, played the Guqin, and wrote poetry for Ninth Brother… Tsk tsk, she really did a lot of things.”

“That day at the tribute banquet, she was quite charming.” The person who spoke was Huangfu Hao. Huangfu Hao couldn’t help but be a little surprised. In his mansion and at the tribute banquet, Shen Miao did not look like the fool she was rumored to be. What was more, the way Shen Miao looked at Princess Ming An was very strange and cold.

“Back then, Miss Shen was young.” Prince Cheng continued, “Who knew that two years later, she would actually become so beautiful? Moreover, she was originally stupid and timid, but now, she’s no longer the same as before. Among the ladies in the capital of Ming Qi, those who can compare to her are very few.” Prince Cheng chuckled. “If Nine Brother knew that she would change so much, he probably wouldn’t have turned her down back then. But it’s too late to regret now.”

Princess Ming An sneered. “Miss Shen is quite something. As a girl, she doesn’t know shame at all and openly expressed her love towards a man.”

Knowing that Princess Ming An was at odds with Shen Miao, the princes only smiled and did not comment.

Fu Xiuyi shook his head gently and said, “Miss Shen is a good person. Everyone, don’t make fun of her.”

“Ninth Brother, you’re too serious.” Prince Chu smiled and said, “Are you telling me you don’t want her and you also don’t want others to have her? If not for the fact that I’m already married, I’m willing to marry Miss Shen!”

“That’s right!” The other princes echoed.

“That’s right.” Huangfu Hao smiled and said, “If I were the Ninth Prince, I would definitely marry her.”

Princess Ming An was extremely unhappy. She looked at Prince Rui and realized that he was not laughing with everyone. Instead, his eyes were calm. She was delighted and asked, “Prince Rui, do you think so too?”

Prince Rui paused.

Everyone looked at him.

The young man with the mask picked up the wine cup and played with it. He said indifferently, “Making clothes, pastries, playing the Guqin, writing the poetry for someone she likes…”

Princess Ming An said, “That’s right. It’s simply unbefitting and laughable!”

Prince Rui smiled and said, “As it happens, I want such a good girl too.”
