Chapter 157 Promise You
Upon hearing that the queen was coming, Song Nuannuan took action and prepared to go to the side hall.
Gu Mujun grabbed her and glared at Tangning, bringing up something completely off-topic.
"Tangning, I'll settle your score with you later."
Tangning immediately shut her mouth and huddled close to Gu Mufeng, who protected her behind him.
"My royal brother, please forgive me. Ningning is timid. Please don't scare her."
"She's timid? There's no one braver than her!"
"Your Majesty, if my sister has done anything wrong, it is because I, as her elder sister, have failed to teach her well. I am willing to take full responsibility."
Song Nuannuan finally spoke, but the words she said were so unfamiliar that Gu Mujun was stunned on the spot.
After struggling for a while, Gu Mujun didn't dare to be angry with him and asked:
"Song Nuannuan, why did you lie to me that you were dead? Do you know how sad I am?"
Tangning responded without hesitation:
"You're sad, but you still married a new wife. Why didn't you say you were sad when you were in her bed?"
"Tangning! Do you really think I dare not kill you?"
Gu Mujun drew his sword as he spoke, and Song Nuannuan stood in front of Tangning.
"Because I don't want to be in the same room with you. I feel sick and want to vomit. Because I think you're hypocritical and I'm afraid of your scheming. Because you're not the one I love."
"Ok?"
Everyone looked at Gu Mujun together. Could it be that he was also penetrated?
Only Gu Mujun didn't understand what these people meant, and looked at Song Nuannuan in disbelief:
"Then who do you love? Didn't you say you would only love me forever?"
Apparently not, everyone's eyes turned to Song Nuannuan again.
"The one I love is Gu Mujun from two years ago. Back then, I believed he truly loved me, and it's also true that he doesn't love me now.
Gu Mujun, I will just treat the old you as dead and stop bothering me from now on, okay?"
Song Nuannuan's words made Gu Mujun so angry that he couldn't speak. The two looked at each other, neither of them willing to give in first.
"What a tragedy!"
Tangning shook her head with emotion, drawing everyone's attention.
Gu Mufeng pulled her back and told her not to say anything.
"In this situation, it's better not to speak."
Gu Mufeng brought a stool for Tang Ning, figuring the argument wouldn't stop for a while.
Seeing how brave he was, Tang Ning quietly pulled him to the side hall. Wouldn't it be a nuisance if this happened here?
What is he doing with the stool? Is he planning to sit down and watch the show?
If a quarrel breaks out later, don’t forget that he is the emperor. What if he gets angry and directly implicates them?
Xukong was better at reading people's expressions. Seeing that the situation was not right, he took Mu Zixin into the side hall first.
Seeing that everyone was gone, Gu Mujun could no longer control himself and wanted to hug Song Nuannuan into his arms:
"Am I not good to you? Do I let you suffocate like this?"
Song Nuannuan took a step back and left him alone:
"Gu Mujun, if you are a man, let me go and don't let me hate you."
"Don't even think about leaving me and going somewhere else!"
In the side hall, Tang Ning took herself a piece of cake. She was hungry after arguing for so long.
It's just the same few sentences over and over again, so boring.
"Pah! This pastry doesn't taste right. Never mind. I'll give you some of my newly made bread."
The first one was handed to Mu Zixin, who took it angrily and ate happily, but he looked at Tang Ning with a sidelong glance.
"Did the emperor hit your eyes? Did he make you squint? Come on, that's quite unique!"
Mu Zixin bit even harder, you were beaten, your whole family was beaten!
"Don't mind it, Miss Tang. He just has a childish temper and is a little angry. He'll be fine once he thinks it through."
As he was about to reach out to take his share, Tang Ning immediately put it into his space.
"And you, tell me, why do you bother us whenever the royal family bothers you?"
Xukong was also angry. The master was right. These people had evil hearts. How could they stay in peace in the Taoist temple?
But there was someone he cared about at the foot of the mountain, so he had to come down.
"No, this is the last time. From now on, I will not care about his affairs, and I can't care about them anymore."
Taoist Master Xukong looked at Mu Zixin with some nostalgia. The two siblings looked almost the same, but they had experienced a lot over the years.
His appearance has changed a lot, but he still looks very much like his sister.
"If you push me again, I'll really die this time!"
An angry roar was heard from the hall, and Tang Ning rushed out with a bang.
"Nuannuan, put the hairpin down. Be careful not to puncture any blood vessels!"
When Gu Mujun saw the blood flowing from her neck, the nightmares in his dream seemed to reappear before his eyes, and he pleaded carefully.
"Nuannuan, don't be impulsive. I will agree to whatever you say!"
Song Nuannuan got the answer she wanted and slowly put down the hairpin.
Tang Ning rushed over and chopped it off. She and Gu Mujun were probably the only ones who knew Song Nuannuan best.
Nuannuan was not a threat just now, she really wanted to die.
"Let us go now!"
Song Nuannuan looked at Gu Mujun with disappointment in her eyes, no longer holding any hope for him.
"Okay, I promise you!"
After getting the answer she wanted, Song Nuannuan pulled Tang Ning and looked at Gu Mufeng.
"let's go!"
"Royal brother, I..."
Gu Mufeng looked at his second brother worriedly. Gu Mujun waved his hand, signaling them to leave:
"Protect them well, Mu Feng. I entrust her and the child to you. In time, I will definitely give you the richest fiefdom."
At the door, Song Yanran, who had been eavesdropping with her ear tilted, heard the door open and quickly stood up.
Just as I was about to go in, I looked up and saw two people who shouldn't be here.
"How will you be here?"
Tang Ning was in a bad mood. She pushed away the person blocking her way and, led by the eunuch, the group walked out of the palace.
"Stop, stop right there! Aren't you dead? Why are you here?"
Song Yanran looked around at Song Nuannuan in disbelief, thinking of the ridiculous things that happened at her wedding, things that made her, the queen, unable to hold her head up until now.
If Song Nuannuan faked her death, then she must have done it on purpose, deliberately trying to make His Majesty disappointed in her and misunderstand that she was the one who did it.
She was banished to the cold palace, and now she is back alive to compete for her favor.
Thinking of this, her eyes turned red with anger. What did all the grievances she had suffered during this period mean?
"Get out of the way, good dogs don't get in the way!"
"Come here, arrest them. Song Nuannuan, I don't care how you survived, but you have committed the crime of deceiving the emperor and deserve death. And you, Tangning, you dared to disrespect me? Drag you away and give me a severe beating."
Before the guard could step forward, Tang Ning slapped him first.
"I've been wanting to give you this slap for a long time."
"How dare you hit me!"
"I'm going to hit you if I want to. Do I need to choose a time?"
