"Tell me, what are you going to do with me?" Ashita Liren asked as she stared at Søren. The affection in her eyes did not diminish, but neither did the sarcasm on her face.
Søren was probably the kind of man who understood a woman's heart the best. He knew exactly what Li Ren was thinking.
She had indeed fallen for him, and even fallen in love with him.
The numbness and sinking feeling when her snow-white buttocks were slapped proved everything.
However, Søren's motive for approaching her and flirting with her was to gain her support, not out of love.
With her personality, she could not tolerate any sand in her eyes.
Therefore, during those days in Rouran City, she did not take the initiative to see Søren. It was not because she wanted to put on a show, but because she did not know what to do next.
If something really happened, it was bound to be an unfair relationship.
After waiting for a few days, Søren made a prompt decision to leave. This was because he knew that there was no longer any suspense about the position of Ashita Liren and Rouran City.
However, he did not expect that after learning that Søren had left, Ashita Liren would come to Fengdu first.
From this, it could be seen that she was stubborn and domineering.
However, from the fact that she was waiting here for Søren and her sharp words, it could be seen that she already had an answer in her heart as to how their relationship should develop.
Ashita Liren said, "You don't have an answer as to how to deal with me, do you? Why don't you listen to my answer? "
"Alright," Søren said.
Ashita Liren said, "I will stand by your side, live and die together, advance and retreat together!"
Søren nodded.
Ashita Liren said, "I like you, you move my heart, you enter my sweet dreams!"
Just hearing these words made Søren's heart beat faster.
"But …" Ashita Liren said, "if nothing changes, our relationship will end here and not go any further. Because your motive for flirting with me is not because of feelings, but because of benefits. "
Søren remained silent. He had already expected this outcome.
"I like you, but I won't be with you," Ashita Liren said, "because this isn't a fair relationship."
Søren looked at her beautiful eyes and said after a long time, "I'm sorry!"
After a moment of silence, Ashita Liren asked, "Søren, who is the woman you love the most in this world? The kind of love between man and woman! "
Søren thought for a while and then said, "Sister Suo Ningbing."
Ashita Liren's beautiful eyes widened. She was a little startled, and her face blushed slightly.
Then, she stared into Søren's eyes and said, "You really are a bastard, even more of a bastard than Aslo."
Søren couldn't explain that he and Suo Ningbing weren't real siblings.
"But, I don't know why, but my heart is beating even faster." Ashita Liren said, "It seems that most women like bad men, especially bad but not evil men."
The evil she was talking about was Aslo.
He was a man who could make people's heart beat faster, but he was too evil, so people were afraid of him, not moved.
Gui Qinshao was afraid the moment she saw him, and didn't dare to look at him.
Ashita Liren took a deep breath and said, "I'm a very loyal person, I will always stand by your side. But if you dare to mention anything like spanking again, I will break your hand. "
Søren forced a smile and said, "Then I will practice martial arts with all my might, and strive to surpass you in cultivation. That way, I can fight and do whatever I want."
Ashita Liren looked at Søren seriously and said, "That's fine too. Being raped by a man you like is probably a way to break through the bottleneck of a relationship."
Søren was stunned.
… …
"Søren has returned to the capital!" Zhi Li sighed.
Ma Yingwei, Gui Xingfu, Turin Tuo and the rest looked at each other with complicated expressions.
"This person is truly a monster." Zhi Li said, "He helped Ashita Liren to the position of city lord, and killed Ashinzhuo in a few days. What's more, against the invasion of the three hundred thousand Yelan Principality army, he actually turned the situation around."
Yes, a monster … …
Turin Tuo, Ma Yingwei, Gui Xingfu and the rest were deeply shocked.
At that time, the three hundred thousand Yelan Principality army invaded the Rouran, and when Ashita Liren came to ask for help, Zhi Li ignored her.
Because he felt that the Rouran was already destined to be destroyed, there was no construction without destruction. Either he forced Ashita Liren to submit completely, or he completely let the Yelan Principality destroy the Rouran, and cut off an arm of Jung Yeon and Søren.
After he succeeded the throne, he would send troops to take back the Rouran Principality and turn it into a Fury Waves Province directly under the kingdom.
But he never expected the situation to be reversed.
Grand Duke Lanshi died suddenly, causing Prince Lan Tu's two hundred thousand troops to retreat, and Rouran City was actually saved.
Even though there was no evidence that Grand Duke Lanshi's death was related to Søren, Zhi Li instinctively felt that it was Søren's doing.
"Should we expose Grand Duke Lanshi's death as Søren's doing?" Duke Ma Yingwei said.
Turing Tuo and Gui Xingfu did not say a word.
Zhi Li shook his head. "There is no evidence, and the Dragon Temple has already endorsed Grand Duke Lanshi's book, saying that it was a warning from the heavens, and divine lightning descended."
Ma Yingwei said, "Is there no other way to deal with that little bastard?"
Zhi Li sighed. "Originally, I did not want to complicate matters during this period of time, and wanted to wait quietly for Pi Bian to die so that I could succeed the throne. But I never expected Søren to put on such a show. "
Ma Yingwei said, "Thankfully, Rouran City has yet to make a public statement!"
At that moment, a eunuch entered and said with a trembling voice, "Your Highness, the Rouran City Lord, Ashita Liren, has come to visit the capital!"
…
Ashita Liren had long entered the capital, but the previous time, she had infiltrated alone.
But this time, he led over a thousand cavalrymen, and they marched majestically into King City, right in front of everyone's eyes!
The number one duke in the world had entered the capital!
This was the first time in more than a decade that the Rouran City Lord had visited the capital.
The previous city lord, Ashimo, had never stepped foot into Fengdu since the first year of his allegiance when he visited King City to meet with the king.
Furthermore, even though they were known as the dukes of the Raging Wave Kingdom. For the past two decades, Rouran City had maintained absolute independence, be it in terms of military, politics or economy.
Tianshui City, which was also a dukedom, had to pay taxes to the capital every year. As for the taxes that Rouran City paid to the royal family, it was a symbolic sum of less than a thousand gold coins.
Now that the Rouran City Lord had finally stepped into the capital for the second time, the entire Fengdu was in an uproar!
In order to express their respect for the number one duke, Zhi Li and Jung Yeon actually came to the capital's city gates to welcome him.
Not only that, almost all the nobles and royal family members in Fengdu came out.
At that moment, the entire Fengdu city gates were heavily guarded, as though they were facing a great enemy.
Tens of thousands of soldiers stood in formation, guarding every inch of the city walls like nails.
Hundreds of nobles and their families stood at the city gates, waiting for the visit of the number one duke.
In the huge open space in front of the city gates, there were two distinct camps.
On the right, there were only three people: Princess Jung Yeon, Søren and Duchess Linting.
On the left, Prince Zhi Li led the way, with hundreds of people standing behind him. Almost all the dukes' representatives, the nobles in the capital, and the high-ranking officials.
The difference in strength between the two sides could no longer be described as a huge disparity. It was an overwhelming advantage.
Zhi Li wanted everyone to see that the whole world was on his side.
Originally, there was no need for such a grand display even to welcome the number one duke. However, Zhi Li wanted to make up for it. He welcomed Ashita Liren with the highest courtesy so that she would at least remain neutral. Of course, it was more of a deterrent so that Ashita Liren could clearly see how powerful the forces behind him were.
As the fiancé of the princess, Søren stood side by side with Jung Yeon, and even in front of Duchess Linting.
Behind Zhi Li, Søren saw many familiar figures. Among them, Luan Yangcheng's crown prince, Tu Liyang, stood out because of his height. He was also pushing a wheelchair in front of him, with Turin Duo sitting in it.
In fact, she had already recovered, but in order to refuse to consummate the marriage with Tu Liyang, she still pretended to be paralyzed and sat in the wheelchair.
Søren saw that she had become more plump, and her skin had become much fairer.
This was probably the first time she saw Søren after being thrown into the sea by the rock demon. However, throughout the entire process, she did not even glance at Søren.
Another particularly eye-catching person was Gui Qinshao.
She was simply too eye-catching. No matter where she stood, she was like a rose with thorns. Her beauty was unparalleled and captivating.
At this moment, she was standing beside her father, Gui Xingfu, and Ling Ao.
Usually, she was arrogant and haughty. The more she was in a crowd, the prouder she was like a little peacock, trying her best to show off her beauty and attract the attention of others.
But today, she seemed to be preoccupied and uneasy.
Furthermore, she did not even glance at Søren.
…
They waited for a full hour.
Finally, the Rouran City troops arrived in a grand procession.
More than a thousand Rouran cavalrymen escorting two large and magnificent carriages entered everyone's sight.
The Rouran cavalrymen stopped when they were about ten meters away from the city gates.
However, the door of the magnificent carriage opened and a figure alighted.
Instantly …
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
Be it Zhi Li or the other men, everyone's eyes widened.
Even the preoccupied Gui Qinshao widened her beautiful eyes in disbelief as she watched Ashita Liren alight from the carriage.
This was the first time everyone saw Ashita Liren's face!
She was actually … so beautiful.
What did it mean to be devastatingly beautiful?
What did it mean to be a masterpiece from the heavens?
Everyone finally experienced it now. Zhi Li even held his breath for a moment.
He had thought that there was no one more beautiful than Jung Yeon and no one more beautiful than Gui Qinshao.
The Ashina Liren in front of him was as beautiful as Si Yan, peerless and peerless.
And her beauty was even greater than Gui Qinshao's.
That frosty celestial air, that natural seductiveness, and that devilish figure brought about a charm.
She was a complete combination of a fairy and a witch.
At this moment, Prince Zhi Li's heart was filled with an endless desire to possess her!
This was the first time he was filled with the desire to possess a woman because of her beauty!
He had always felt that beauty was just an embellishment of power. But at this moment, he deeply felt that if he could not possess such a woman, he would not be worthy of being a king.
And Gui Qinshao's eyes were wide open, and her small mouth was agape, forgetting to close.
She really could not believe that there was a woman in this world who was not only more beautiful than her, but also more gorgeous.
Søren was also very surprised that Ashita Liren did not wear a mask when she publicly entered the capital again!
This meant that she would completely bid farewell to masks in the future. What was the meaning behind this?
Ashita Liren leisurely walked over, her steps were filled with the boldness of a strong person, and also full of the charm of a woman.
As she approached, an enchanting fragrance and a cold aura greeted him.
Søren now finally understood what it was like to hold one's breath and be completely silent.
When there was only one person facing Li Ren, her beauty was already astonishing. And when all eyes were focused on her, she was really as dazzling as a star, sparkling wherever she went.
This was no longer just beauty, it was more of a kind of temperament, a kind of radiance.
The Yin Draconic Meridian may have made her life short, but it completely condensed and blossomed her beauty for decades.
"Greetings to Your Highness Zhi Li, greetings to Your Highness Jung Yeon!" Ashita Liren stepped forward and half saluted.
Ashita Liren's eyes momentarily blurred, but when he heard Liren actually put his name before Jung Yeon, he immediately felt a burst of joy.
He really did not expect Ashita Liren to be so beautiful.
"City Lord Ashina has had a hard journey." Zhi Li stretched out his hand to help her up, then said: "Tonight, I will hold a banquet in the residence to welcome Your Highness."
"Many thanks, Your Highness." Ashita Liren said.
Zhi Li once again secretly rejoiced!
Then, he officially began the red tape of the feudal vassals visiting the capital. A full quarter of an hour later!
Then, Ashita Liren led a thousand cavalrymen into Fengdu and stayed in the Marquis Rouran's residence!
As the number one feudal vassal in the world, the royal family would definitely not be stingy with a residence. It was just that this marquis's residence had been bestowed to her more than ten years ago, but she had never stayed in it for a day.
Today, as the owner, Ashita Liren finally moved in.
After staying in the Marquis's residence, Ashita Liren bathed and changed her clothes, then entered the palace to have an audience with the king!
Of course, she could not see the king because Fengdu had changed and no one was seen, but she still had to follow the etiquette.
After nightfall, as the crown prince, Prince Zhi Li, held the biggest banquet!
All the feudal vassals, nobles, high-ranking civil officials, high-ranking generals, and all the envoys from other countries were all present!
This banquet only had one purpose, and that was to welcome the Rouran City Lord, Ashita Liren!
...
As one of the feudal vassals and Princess Jung Yeon's fiancé, Søren naturally attended Zhi Li's banquet.
When he and Jung Yeon entered the young lord's residence, almost everyone was already present.
Ashita Liren was in the middle of the banquet hall, personally accompanied by Zhi Li, like the moon surrounded by stars.
Almost all the feudal vassals and nobles surrounded her and Zhi Li.
Because Liren had been learning martial arts in the East Li Kingdom for a long time and had never appeared in public in the Raging Wave Kingdom, she did not know anyone yet.
Zhi Li patiently and gently introduced her to every noble, every high-ranking noble above the rank of earl.
The ice-cold Ashina Liren only nodded at every noble and vassal, but even a simple nod in response was enough to make people feel flattered.
During the day at the city gates, because she was the center of attention, many men were able to look directly at Ashita Liren's face.
But at tonight's banquet, because of the close proximity and the fact that they were facing her alone, many men instinctively lowered their heads after a glance at Ashita Liren's peerless beauty.
That kind of peerless beauty, that cold temperament, that devilish figure, coupled with the aura of a top-notch powerhouse, gave people a great sense of temptation, but at the same time, it also brought about great pressure.
Because of her presence at tonight's banquet, the other women were indeed overshadowed.
The only one who could compete with her in terms of appearance was Princess Jung Yeon, but she wore simple yet elegant clothes and gently held Søren's arm, unwilling to compete for any attention.
...
"Greetings, Your Highness!" Suddenly, an old man's voice came from behind Søren.
He could not help but look back.
Instantly, he saw a tall old man. Søren glanced at him and felt that he looked familiar, but he was sure that he had not seen him before.
Soon, he knew why he looked familiar. It was because he looked a little like himself.
This old man also had the appearance of a man and a woman. When he was young, he must have been a very handsome person.
But unlike Søren, his handsome face had a pair of especially domineering eyebrows, which gave him a sharp and domineering feeling.
He should be more than sixty or seventy years old, but he looked to be around fifty. His hair and beard were jet black, but there was a tuft of red in the center of his hair.
Moreover, he was also wearing a scarlet brocade robe.
Domineering, cold, and unfathomable!
This was Søren's first impression of this old man.
He was Søren's maternal grandfather, the second most powerful duke in the world, Marquis Fu E, the Lord of Divineflame City.
"Greetings, grandfather." Søren bowed.
Jung Yeon bowed slightly and said, "Greetings, grandfather."
She actually called him grandfather, indicating that she would follow her husband's example.
Marquis Fu E was slightly taken aback, and once again bowed to Princess Jung Yeon.
Immediately after, his expression towards Søren became very bad. His eyes were cold, and his face was stern. "Come with me!"
Then, he walked out without another word.
Søren glanced at Jung Yeon, and then followed. He did not know what this grandfather, whom he had been separated from for many years, had to say to him.
After walking out of the banquet hall, a petite figure suddenly walked past Søren with her head lowered.
Then, Søren felt that there was a ball of paper in his hand.
Søren walked to a secluded place and opened it, only to see the words written on it:
"Come to the fake mountain in the garden. I will wait for you. I have something important to tell you!"
Signed: Qinshao.
That's right, it was Qinshao, omitting the surname! The person who gave him the ball of paper seemed to be Gui Qinshao's personal maid.
Søren recalled that he did not see Gui Qinshao in the banquet hall, and that she also looked uneasy when he greeted Ashita Liren at the city gate.
Something important? What could it be?
Then, Søren noticed that there was a fragrance on the paper, and upon closer inspection, he found a faint lip print.
It was Gui Qinshao's handwriting, and the lip print was also hers.
No matter what important matter it was, one thing was certain: this bold, delicate lady had the intention to have an affair.
But now, Søren was not in the mood to have an affair with this delicate lady, because his grandfather, Fu E, was looking for him.
Putting away the paper, Søren continued to follow behind Fu E.
But unexpectedly, he kept walking forward, and the direction he was walking in seemed to be the garden.
This was a rather inevitable coincidence, because he had something very private to say, and could only say it in the most remote part of the garden.
When they reached the depths of the garden of the young lord's residence, it was already secluded and deserted.
Not far ahead was the fake mountain where Gui Qinshao had agreed to meet. Søren could even feel her breathing, her rapid and nervous breathing, and the unique fragrance of her body.
His grandfather, Marquis Fu E, stopped and turned to Søren, saying coldly, "Søren, your mother asked me to pass you a message."
