Chapter 179 Eldest Princess 16
Tao Yao looked at Li Qingshu who was getting closer and closer, her heart pounding nervously. His hand was getting closer and closer to her, just when it was about to touch her.
A figure pulled Tao Yao out of the water like a flying swallow, and the next second, a cloak wrapped around Tao Yao's body.
Tao Yao looked at Murong Fu's handsome profile and instantly felt extremely relieved. Although Murong Fu was a sharp-tongued and arrogant guy, at least he would not be as unscrupulous as Li Qingshu and spread his wings towards her.
Murong Fu hugged the woman tightly in his arms and looked at Li Qingshu in the water with a cold expression.
"I didn't expect that Master Li had a habit of forcing himself on women. The princess is a princess of wealth and status. Master Li is being too frivolous and frightened His Highness. I'm afraid Master Li can't afford to pay for it even if he has ten heads."
Li Qingshu's pajamas, as thin as a cicada's wing, were now soaked and stuck to his body. He looked at Tao Yao, who was trembling with fear in Murong Fu's arms and wished she could crawl into the cracks of the ground. His heart sank. It turned out that Gao Yan had no feelings for him at all. She had been lying to him before.
Li Qingshu looked at Tao pitifully, his tone particularly sad. "Your Highness, did Qingshu scare you? It was Qingshu's fault. I shouldn't have been so reckless. Please forgive me. I was just afraid. Your Highness has someone new and you've forgotten me."
Tao Yao felt a little guilty when she heard him being so aggrieved. She was just about to raise her head to comfort him.
But the next second, Murong Fu's big hand held her tightly in his arms.
"I will escort Your Highness back. It's getting late and the dew is heavy. Your Highness is fragile, so please don't catch a cold."
After saying this, Murong Fu didn't give Li Qingshu any chance to explain himself and walked out with Tao Yao in his arms.
After they left, Li Qingshu seemed like a completely different person. His eyes, which had been gentle and affectionate just now, were now as sharp as ice knives. He slapped the water with one palm, causing the water in the bathtub to begin to sway.
Li Qingshu's face looked grim, and his angry eyes were fixed on the water.
"Murong Fu, the outcome is still unknown. We have a long way to go."
When she came out of the bath, she still felt a little cold. Tao Yao grabbed Murong Fu's collar with her small hands, and buried her head in his chest, absorbing his body warmth.
An angry laugh echoed from above Tao Yao's head. "Oh, I never thought Your Highness was so romantic and passionate. You just seduced me to the point of losing my mind, and now Young Master Li is offering himself to you. Your Highness is truly enjoying the blessing of having two wives. Everyone is envious."
Tao Yao heard the obvious sarcasm in his words. Murong Fu was really drunk. He looked like he was completely bewitched by her. He just talked nonsense when he opened his mouth. Besides, she didn't seduce him at all.
Besides, it was Li Qingshu who took the initiative to throw himself into her arms tonight. What does it have to do with her? It wasn't her who asked Li Qingshu to do this.
Tao Yao muttered softly. She was still in Murong Fu's arms. She didn't dare to act rashly. Who knew if this guy would throw her out if he got unhappy? That would be the end of her, and she was still naked.
"General Murong, please stop mocking me. I've never flirted with you. If you don't want to be on the list, I'll have the palace maids cross your name off tomorrow morning."
Murong Fu sneered. He was really stubborn even when facing death. If she hadn't seduced him on purpose, how could he, Murong Fu, have such thoughts about the daughter of a tyrant emperor.
"Your Highness is really stubborn. Since Your Highness doesn't admit it, then I won't force you. However, apart from this general, I'm afraid no one in the Daye Dynasty can be worthy of Your Highness, this jewel and pearl. How about Your Highness, please accept the grievance and choose me as your husband?"
Tao Yao didn't expect that such words could come out of Murong Fu's mouth. She couldn't help but start to doubt the truth of his words. Rong Fu had no feelings for Gao Yan and only wanted to use her. He was probably not really interested in being her husband. This sounded like a trick of Murong Fu to let her guard down.
Let her think that he is deeply in love with her, steal her trust, and then cheat her into giving away the military token. Yes, that must be the case, but she can use the same trick against him.
This way, she could also get rid of Li Qingshu. Li Qingshu's feelings for her were inexplicable, and his actions in the past two days really scared her.
"General Murong is serious about what he says. I know that his affection is fake, and I'm afraid he wants to use me as an excuse to get some favors. However, I can be General Murong's ally."
Murong Fu knew that she had misunderstood his meaning, but since the prey had already jumped in, there was no reason for him not to eat it.
"Ally? Your Highness did remind me of this, but Your Highness wants to be an ally with me. What conditions can Your Highness offer me? Your Highness, please tell me."
When Tao Yao heard Murong Fu say this, she immediately felt that she had guessed his thoughts. As expected, she said that Murong Fu, this fox, had been so attentive these days and it must be profitable.
"General Murong, I know you have great ambitions. I can help you, but I have two conditions."
Murong Fu: "Your Highness, do you know what I want?"
Tao Yao nodded, "I know, you want the kingdom of my Daye Dynasty."
Murong Fu stared at her beautiful profile, "Your Highness, do you know what you are talking about?"
Tao Yao continued to nod, "Of course I know what I'm talking about. Not only do I know that, I also know that you hate me and my father to the core, and you want to skin us both alive."
Murong Fu looked at her quietly, the bright moonlight sprinkled on her black and shiny hair, her black hair was like a waterfall, her skin was whiter than snow, and her teeth were bright and white. If he had to use something to describe her beauty at this moment, Murong Fu would only say that even the fairy of Yaochi could not be more beautiful than her.
"I didn't expect Your Highness to be so direct. The Great Ye Dynasty was completely destroyed by your father, Emperor Gao Yang. The people of the world are suffering terribly. The barbarians have invaded our land and harmed our people. This is a bloody fact."
"Even if I, Murong Fu, don't rebel, someone else will sooner or later. This is a fact of destiny. It seems that I have misunderstood the princess. The princess is smarter and more interesting than I thought."
"General Murong, I can help you gain this vast kingdom, but I have conditions. First, after you ascend the throne, you cannot kill my father. Second, I also want to be a princess of the Daye Dynasty. General Murong, what do you think of this deal?"
While the two were talking, Murong Fu had already sent Tao Yao back to the room. A Bi was hurrying to catch up with her. She had just gone to get the prince's underwear, but she didn't expect that in a moment, this Master Li had sent the maid away and entered the bath.
She was shocked and scared at the moment. His Highness had a bad temper. What if he punished her later? She was afraid of death. She knew His Highness's methods best. His Highness would only make people live a life worse than death, because sometimes, living is more painful than death.
The human pigs displayed outside the palace are living examples.
