Upon seeing this, Chen Liang brandished his sword and fought with Prince Xian.
The guards behind Prince Xian hurried to rescue Nalan Meng. These people were all strong in martial arts and could fight against ten people.
So soon, Chen Liang's people were at a disadvantage.
Upon seeing this, Nalan Meng said in a deep voice, "Chen Liang, you are not Prince Xian's opponent. I advise you to leave quickly and not make unnecessary sacrifices."
They were all Donglin people, and she didn't want to see these people die.
At this time, Chen Liang's left shoulder was stabbed by Prince Xian's sword. After a muffled groan, he covered his bleeding left shoulder and looked at Prince Xian.
Prince Xian could actually stab him, which showed that his martial arts were very strong.
It seemed that they couldn't get any benefits today. They could only withdraw first to save their lives.
He immediately said to his men, "Let the Miss go. Everyone, let's withdraw first!"
After Chen Liang finished speaking, his men immediately released Nalan Meng, and then they all withdrew from the city.
Mo Yu and others wanted to chase after them, but Prince Xian immediately said, "Mo Yu, come back, don't chase!"
It seemed that Nalan Meng knew these Donglin people. Since Nalan Meng didn't want to kill them, he would let them live.
Seeing Nalan Meng being released, Prince Xian hurried over and asked with concern, "Miss Nalan, are you okay?"
Seeing Prince Xian's concerned eyes, Nalan Meng's mind moved slightly.
She didn't expect him to save her again.
She said lightly, "Thank you, I'm fine."
Prince Xian breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good that you're okay. But who are these people? Why do they want to catch you? "
Nalan Meng glanced at the crowd, walked to a stream, and said, "They are all my father's people. They were ordered by my father to catch me."
Prince Xian followed her with a look of surprise, "Your father's people? Why did your father send people to capture you? What happened? "
When Nalan Meng saw that only she and Prince Xian were here, she looked into the distance and said, "Actually, my father hoped that I could go back and get married, but I didn't want to marry the person he arranged, so I didn't go back. When he saw that I hadn't returned, he sent people to capture me, hoping to bring me back to get married. "
Hearing this, Prince Xian shook his head. "So you and I are both in the same boat. I didn't expect your father to force you to get married. I understand how you feel."
Nalan Meng was startled. "You mean, your father is also forcing you to get married? Who is he forcing you to marry? "
Prince Xian chuckled self-deprecatingly. "He didn't force me to marry anyone. He just told me to find a woman to marry within a month. It doesn't matter if she's tall or short, fat or thin, as long as she's a woman. "
"As long as it's a woman? It seems like your father is really anxious! "
"Then do you have someone you like? If you do, why don't you just marry the person you like? "
Prince Xian looked at the sunset on the horizon, a trace of disappointment flashing through his eyes.
He did have someone he liked, but the other party didn't like him.
Seeing that Prince Xian didn't want to answer, Nalan Meng didn't ask any more questions.
Looking at him, he must have a woman he deeply loved, but he couldn't be with her.
A person like Prince Xian wouldn't easily fall in love with a woman.
She was really curious about who that woman was, to actually be able to enter Prince Xian's heart and make Prince Xian so sad.
In order to ease the awkwardness, she said, "Your father is the same as my father. They're both dictators. My father treated me as a victim of political marriage. He never considered whether I wanted it or not, whether I liked it or not. He tied my marriage to the fate of my family. If he wanted me to marry someone, I had to marry that person, even if I didn't like that person at all. That's why I'd rather drift outside than go home. "
Prince Xian said, "I know that my father is doing this for my own good, but I really can't marry someone I don't like."
At this time, Nalan Meng suddenly looked at Prince Xian, as if she wanted to say something, but hesitated.
Prince Xian saw her strange expression and said, "Miss Nalan, what's wrong?"
Nalan Meng raised her eyebrows, her voice bold and straightforward, "Prince, since you and I are both being forced into marriage, why don't we make a deal?"
"A deal? What kind of deal? "Prince Xian said.
Nalan Meng looked at him confidently, "We can have a fake marriage."
"A fake marriage?" Prince Xian was startled.
Nalan Meng crossed her arms, "That's right! You need a wife to deal with the emperor, and I also need a marriage to escape my father's arrangements. Both of us need a marriage, so why don't we make a deal and each take what he needs? That way, you can answer to the emperor, and I can also escape from my family's control. I happen to find you quite pleasing to the eye, and you're the type that I don't dislike, so I think we can cooperate. "
The Sage King was stunned. This woman was really daring and full of confidence.
However, he didn't answer her, but was deep in thought.
Seeing Prince Xian deep in thought, Nalan Meng continued, "Don't worry, we're only faking our marriage. We're husband and wife on the surface, but in reality, we're just a couple in name. You don't have to bear the responsibility of being a husband, and I don't have to bear the responsibility of being a wife. We only need to be husband and wife in front of others. After this period of time, we can divorce at any time. "
Prince Xian's expression was very serious, "Miss Nalan, marriage is a major event in life, not a game. Even if it's a fake marriage, we still need to be careful. Please let Wang think about it. "
Nalan Meng chuckled, "What's there to think about? It's just a fake marriage, and I won't ask you to take responsibility for me. We're just working together. If there comes a day when we don't want to work together anymore, we can just end this marriage. Even a woman like me is so straightforward, so why should you hesitate? "
Hearing this, Prince Xian suddenly said, "Alright, Wang also thinks that Miss is a trustworthy friend. Wang can cooperate with you. If there comes a day when you want to go back on your word, we can divorce at any time. "
Nalan Meng was right. Even a woman like her was so straightforward, so why should he hesitate?
In any case, he couldn't find a suitable candidate.
They were only faking their marriage. She wouldn't force him to do anything he didn't want to do. They didn't love each other, so there was no need for any intimate actions. He was willing to accept this kind of marriage.
As for Liu 'er, she wanted love, a husband, and warmth. He couldn't afford to give her any of these.
So he could only apologize to her.
-
After Nalan Meng and Prince Xian came to an agreement, the two hit it off and prepared for the marriage.
Soon, Prince Xian told Emperor Hongyuan about his marriage with Nalan Meng.
Emperor Hongyuan was very happy when he heard this.
He didn't expect that the Sage King would find the best one when he didn't look for one.
The Nalan family was very powerful. With Nalan Meng's help, Prince Xian's strength would definitely reach a new level.
It was such an important marriage between the two countries. Emperor Hongyuan had to make arrangements for Prince Xian's marriage to show the country's prestige.
Concubine Jing was also very happy when she heard this.
However, she was also worried. She was afraid that Liu 'er wouldn't be able to accept it after hearing about it.
