Chapter 1181: All The Careerists (11)
After much discussion, the candidate was still not confirmed.
Shen Yu went to look for Elder Feng after she came back from the imperial court.
“Why is Jing Se suddenly helping Shen Pin?” Shen Yu was furious. “Is she interacting with Shen Pin behind my back?”
“Your Majesty, I didn’t discover any interaction between Princess Seven and Jing Se...” Elder Feng hesitated before continuing, “Is she speaking the truth when she says that this matter could harm the reputation of our country?”
“You believe what she said?” Shen Yu smiled coldly. “Look at what she did recently. Do you think she cares about the reputation of the country?”
Elder Feng remembered the atmosphere in the imperial court. She was speechless.
“Go and investigate this matter. Find out what her relationship with Shen Pin is.”
“Yes.”
“Is there any progress in the matter I asked you to investigate?”
Elder Feng lowered her head. “The people from the prime minister’s mansion said that there is something amiss with Jing Se. However, besides a change in personality, there is nothing suspicious.”
“A change in personality is not suspicious enough?” As someone who was reborn, Shen Yu was more worried.
Elder Feng wanted to say that a person’s personality might change if she was prompted.
She went to ask the physician.
When she came back after her victory, that thing happened. She didn’t know how she found out, but to be betrayed by her trusted subordinate...
Shen Yu waved at Elder Feng.
Elder Feng walked forward respectfully.
Shen Yu whispered something to her.
“Yes.”
“Do it after the ambassadors of Beiyue Country leave. Don’t let them gain any advantages,” Shen Yu reminded her.
Elder Feng nodded.
...
On the day the ambassadors of Beiyue Country entered the city, the entire city was in an uproar. The civilians heard that the prince of the Beiyue Country was extremely beautiful. He was even more beautiful than the imperial concubine.
Ming Shu met the prince in the palace that was specially used to meet ambassadors from other countries.
He was indeed beautiful.
He wore a bright red gown. He had a different kind of beauty when compared with Shaoyao.
He was much taller than the men from Fengqi State and had an unruly aura about him. Ming Shu felt that he was difficult to interact with.
However, to her, no one was as beautiful as Shen Pin.
“This way please, Prince Huan Li.” Elder Feng was surprised by the prince’s beauty too. Unfortunately, he belonged to another country.
Huan Li opened his fan with a loud pa. He waved his fan slowly and entered the living palace.
Ming Shu didn’t need to attend to the prince so she left after he entered the palace.
Ming Shu was puzzled. Would this prince marry into Fengqi?
He must be here to create trouble!
The next day, Ming Shu received a piece of news stating that the prince wanted to marry Princess Seven.
Besides Shen Pin, he didn’t want to marry anyone else.
If they didn’t agree, they could continue fighting. Fengqi might have won this time, but Beiyue was not afraid of them.
Ming Shu: “...” F**k!
How dare you lay your eyes on my little demon!
That night, Ming Shu sneaked into the guest palace.
No one guarded Huan Li’s room. Ming Shu waited outside the window for a moment. The room was dark. There seemed to be no one inside.
In actual fact, there was really no one in the room.
Prince Huan Li didn’t come back the entire night.
The next day, he was found at the Baiyan Garden.
The Baiyan Garden was filled with men. Huan Li’s reputation was ruined when he appeared there but he managed to protect his virginity.
At night, Huan Li entered the imperial palace and never came out again.
The third day was the palace banquet. Ming Shu had no more chances to beat Prince Huan Li up.
Just as Ming Shu was wondering if she should snatch Shen Pin during the day of the wedding, she saw Shen Pin climbing through her window.
“Prime Minister.” Shen Pin rushed toward her and fell into her arms. They both fell onto the bed.
Ming Shu: “...”
Little ancestor, we can talk nicely. There is no need to attack me.
Ming Shu felt her eyebrows jumping. “Your Highness, why are you sneaking into my room in the middle of the night? Is this what you should do? Where did all your manners go?”
Shen Pin placed his chin on her chest. He chose to ignore her. He whispered, “Do you want to see me marry another man?”
Ming Shu pushed Shen Pin. Shen Pin just lay on her. His clothes were very thin. She could feel his muscles through the clothes.
Ming Shu: “...”
“Your Highness, this is not about whether I want him to marry you or not. Prince Huan Li is the person who wants to marry you.”
“I don’t know who he is. He must be up to no good.”
Ming Shu probed, “Maybe you met him in your dreams? He might have fallen in love with you at first sight.”
“Prime Minister.” Shen Pin placed his hands beside Ming Shu. He looked into her eyes directly. “I’m yours.”
Ming Shu noticed something different about Shen Pin’s face. He didn’t apply any makeup on his face so it seemed different.
It was beautiful but seductive.
That face came closer to Ming Shu’s. Shen Pin’s lips landed on hers.
They were as soft as marshmallows.
It tasted a little sweet too.
Ming Shu raised her hand and held his head. Shen Pin felt encouraged. He used his tongue to open her mouth.
The taste got sweeter.
By the time Ming Shu realized that there was something amiss, it was already too late.
Her body was extremely hot. The person lying on her felt like ice. She desperately wanted to grab him.
“Shen Pin!”
Shen Pin sat on Ming Shu’s body. He took off Ming Shu’s clothes with his fair fingers while saying seriously, “Prime Minister, I want to become your man.”
He rested his fingers on Ming Shu’s chest. He tapped lightly and then pointed to himself. “I want both your heart and body.
“Do you want me?”
Ming Shu gritted her teeth. “Antidote.”
Shen Pin pulled Ming Shu’s hand and placed it on his waist. “It’s me. I’m the antidote.”
He didn’t move. He just stared at Ming Shu.
Ming Shu didn’t know what he fed her. She felt that she was losing her reason. The hand on his waist was yearning to rip his clothes away.
Ming Shu’s breathing got heavier.
“Don’t force yourself. I’m here...” Shen Pin whispered. “You’d rather force yourself than touch me?”
“Shen Pin, you drugged me.”
“Yes.” Shen Pin smiled. “How else can I get you? From the moment I saw you, I wanted you. Just you.”
Shen Pin leaned forward and pulled Ming Shu’s clothes down. He kissed her neck and then sucked on it slowly. He felt something changing in the lower part of his body. He went down.
“You can only blame yourself for appearing in front of me.”
“You turned me into a devil. You make me do this. This is all your fault.”
“I’m upset that you don’t care about me. I’m angry, really angry. However, I can control myself...”
There was hesitation in his voice. He felt helpless. He didn’t know what this emotion was.
He felt depressed.
He was really upset.
Shen Pin pulled the band on Ming Shu’s waist with trembling hands.
“Shen Pin, don’t do this...” Ming Shu stopped him. “Release me first. I promise that... I will marry you. Let’s do this after we get married.”
