Are you forcing this prince?
He's actually making tea?
Tang Si felt that it was unfair. She was struggling to read a book, but this brat was leisurely making tea.
The moment he let out his anger, he was instantly enraged.
"Mo, I'm talking to you! Are you deaf? Or are you deliberately ignoring me? "
"…"
"Hey!" Tang Si stood up angrily. "If you don't say anything, I'm going to look for Ah Ji."
He was still sitting there calmly, holding the teapot and pouring a cup of tea.
The aroma of tea permeated the air.
It was refreshing!
He only said slowly, "Say, why are you so insensible?"
His tone was indifferent.
Tang Si walked over and questioned, "How am I insensible?"
"Sigh." His heart was tired. He was too lazy to explain and waved his hand. "You should hurry up and read. Books are full of treasures. You should read more medical books. Not only can they save lives, they can also help you clear your qi."
He tried to persuade her.
"Clear my qi? I'm the one who's angry right now. "
"Where did you get your anger from?"
"From that dog official." She pounded her chest and stamped her feet. "No one in this world has ever dared to tie me up. Not only did he tie me up, he even pinned me to the ground and tried to hit me. Does he think I'm a pushover?"
She was so angry!
Mo Ruo laughed. "What's there to be angry about? You only tied him up and left a few shallow marks on his wrists, but you whipped Magistrate Zuo until he was half dead. There wasn't a single part of his body that was left unscathed. If it weren't for Jing Rong's order, I reckon he would have been beaten to death by you. Tell me, why are you so angry? Did you suffer a loss? "
"How could this young lady suffer a loss?"
"Then why are you angry? Hurry up and read your book. Stop talking nonsense. "
"I …"
She was speechless.
The next moment, her eyes widened and her head tilted as if she was thinking about something. She sat down next to Mo Ruo and reached for the cup of tea.
Slap!
Mo Ruo mercilessly slapped the back of her hand.
She retracted her hand in pain and glared at Mo Ruo. "It hurts."
"You still dare to touch other people's tea when you know it hurts?"
Speechless!
She didn't make a fuss and stared at him with her large eyes.
He was calculating something in his heart.
Mo Ruo was concentrating on making tea, and only after a long time did he notice the gaze on him. He tilted his head and met Tang Si's gaze. He frowned and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face? "
"No."
"Then why are you staring at me?"
She bit her lip and shifted her butt closer to him. Looking like she was gossiping, she asked, "Let me ask you. Have you ever liked a girl?"
"Yes!"
"Ah!" Her expression darkened. "Who is it?"
She sounded like she was being interrogated by a concubine.
Mo Ruo opened his mouth and said, "There are many. For example, Lady Lin from Shangshan Lou, Lady Jiang from Treasure Pavilion, and Lady Lu Yun from Flowing Water Lane in West City. She has a beautiful voice and her songs are like the chirping of an oriole. Of course, the one I like the most is Lady Que 'er from South City Lou. She plays the zither very well. Just watching her play the zither is enough to move one's heart.
Her eyes lit up!
The more he looked like he was enjoying it, the more unhappy Tang Si became. She slammed her fist on the table and glared at him. She questioned loudly, "What's so good about those women? They're all prostitutes. They're filthy. "
Mo Ruo wasn't annoyed by her slander and even laughed.
He mocked, "You can't eat the grapes, so you say the grapes are sour."
"This lady doesn't care. So what if they can play the zither? This lady knows martial arts too. Those useless things aren't as powerful as the whip in my hand. I used my whip to save your life once. Can those people sing and play the zither save you? "She picked out her voice.
Of course not!
However, Mo Ruo found it very funny. He stole a glance at her. That woman's face was full of anger, as if she was … jealous.
Was he seeing things? He was slightly taken aback.
Then, he pushed the cup of tea that Tang Si wanted to take earlier towards her.
"Come, calm your anger!"
Pfft!
"You're the one who calms your anger."
"Sigh." Mo Ruo sighed again and shook his head.
Tang Si felt unhappy. Her chest felt tight and sour. Coupled with the fire in her heart, she stretched out her leg and kicked Mo Ruo's knee from under the table.
"Ah!"
That hurt.
It was very painful.
The culprit ran away and sat back at the table. He opened the medical book and stared at the densely packed words on it, pretending that he didn't know what was going on.
Her face covered by the medical book was a little unhappy.
In fact, she also didn't understand what she was thinking.
She loved and hated Mo Ruo at the same time.
That kind of feeling made her hate herself.
Unfortunately, Mo Ruo was a simple-minded person. He couldn't see through Tang Si's current thoughts. He only thought that the lass might be having a seizure. He could only endure the pain in his knee, grit his teeth, and ignore her.
Just like that, the two of them sat inside without saying a word.
One was focused on pouring the tea in her hand.
The other was staring at the medical book in a daze, but couldn't remember a single word.
… …
The next day.
Jing Rong ordered his men to bring Wen Panshi over.
It had only been two days, but that man was no longer as charming as before. His originally refined appearance was now covered with stubble. His eyes were sunken and lifeless, and his cheeks were thin.
He was completely in dire straits.
Jing Rong sat there, scrutinizing him from head to toe.
He suddenly let out a sigh of relief and asked, "General Wen, is the prison comfortable?"
"There are snakes, insects, rats, and ants."
"Do you want to go in again?"
"Your Highness, why beat around the bush? If you have something to say, just say it. "Wen Panshi said with a straight face.
Jing Rong couldn't help but sneer. He picked up the teacup beside him and took a small sip. "If this Prince didn't already know about your plan, would you really have killed this Prince at that time?"
"Yes!"
Without hesitation!
Haha!
"Then do you think that if Teacher Ji hadn't stopped me, this prince would have killed you?"
"Yes." Wen Panshi said straightforwardly.
"That's right. If it weren't for Teacher Ji, you and your soldiers would already be dead. “
Wen Panshi was very stubborn. "If you want to kill me, then kill me."
If he wanted his life, he wanted his head.
From the moment he decided to avenge the Imperial Duke fourteen years ago, he was already prepared to sacrifice himself at any time.
"Are you forcing this prince?"
"Your imperial father can kill everyone in the world for the sake of the throne. You are his son. What's the point of killing a few people for your own benefit?"
