After the indigenous heroine was reborn, she went crazy and reorganized the plot line

Chapter 209 Rejection

"How do you want to make up for it?"

Rong Su was amused by his rogue behavior and followed up his question, wanting to see what he wanted.

Shen Peiqing let her go and looked her straight in the eyes with a serious and solemn expression.

"Give me a sachet." He seemed to be afraid that she would not agree, or that she would find it troublesome, so he compromised and changed the subject, "You can also buy one for me. Three days is too rushed to make a sachet. You should buy it for me."

Rong Su blinked, not expecting that the compensation he wanted was just a sachet. She tilted her head and asked with a smile, "Why do you suddenly want a sachet?"

Shen Peiqing looked away, not meeting her gaze. He clenched his fist and placed it against his lips. He coughed softly, seemingly trying to hide something, and stammered, "Nothing. I just wanted it."

"Is this request too much? If you don't want to." He seemed really afraid of troubling her, and began to think about something else hesitantly.

Rong Su saw his conflicted look, pursed her lips and smiled, saying, "It's not something expensive, just a sachet. I can make it for you, but my female worker is not good. Don't expect it."

When Shen Peiqing heard that Rong Su was willing to do it for him, he instantly became happy, his face full of smiles. He held her hand, put his hand against her shoulder, and said, "As long as it's you who does it. It's worth my anticipation."

When did this man become so good at saying such sweet words? Rong Su felt like she was about to fall for him and shook her head with a helpless smile.

Then the two of them sat side by side and watched the night view of the lanterns for a long time. It was not until curfew that Shen Peiqing took her down the mountain.

On the way back, Shen Peiqing also bought her a very cute lantern, which was a lantern carved with a jade rabbit.

They returned to the gate of the Regent's Palace, talking and laughing.

At this moment, a questioning voice with gritted teeth sounded from not far away, mixed with a hint of sarcasm.

"I was wondering why His Majesty suddenly came to see me. It turns out it was the prince's handiwork. It seems that the prince also put a lot of effort into what happened tonight."

Bei Xin stared at Shen Peiqing with a forced smile. If he hadn't been trying to maintain his image in front of Rong Su, he would have probably started a fight with Shen Peiqing without saying a word.

When Shen Peiqing saw Bei Xin, the smile on his face disappeared instantly like water spilled into the desert.

His tone was calm and his expression was cold: "This prince does not understand what the young master said."

At this time, Mu Tou came forward and whispered to Shen Peiqing, "Master, His Majesty has been safely sent back to the palace."

Shen Peiqing nodded, then looked at Rong Su, smiled again, and took her hand: "Xiao Su, let's go home."

This action undoubtedly aroused Bei Xin's anger, which he had suppressed with great difficulty.

Rong Su looked at Bei Xin, then at Shen Peiqing who was smiling at her, and sighed inwardly, just about to say something to ease the tense atmosphere.

The next moment, Bei Xin started to attack Shen Peiqing like a lit bomb.

He rushed over, raised his fist, and swung it towards Shen Peiqing. The speed was like a violent storm, sweeping in front of Shen Peiqing.

Shen Peiqing also reacted very quickly. He dodged sideways a second before Bei Xin's fist was about to reach him, and even attacked Bei Xin's back.

Bei Xin was also quite sensitive. When Shen Peiqing's knifeman attacked his back, he stepped to the left, bent sideways, raised his arm, and blocked Shen Peiqing's knifeman.

The two men faced each other arm to arm, neither of them showing any sign of weakening their momentum, and were full of arrogance.

Rong Su, who was watching the fight, could clearly see the uneven blue veins on the backs of both of their hands, which showed how much arm strength they exerted.

Seeing that they were about to continue, Rong Su felt that she could not let them go on like this any longer.

He immediately looked at the two of them and said in a serious voice: "Enough!"

This sound made them both stunned. Bei Xin was still very angry and raised his fist to hit Shen Peiqing hard.

Blood instantly flowed out from the corner of Shen Peiqing's mouth. Since he had been hit, he naturally would not let himself suffer a loss, so he also punched Bei Xin.

Afterwards, both of their faces were red and swollen, and it looked like they were going to fight again.

Rong Su couldn't bear to watch it any longer. Her heart beat faster for a second after Shen Peiqing punched her. She didn't hesitate any longer and took out two silver needles and gave each of them one.

When Shen Peiqing realized it, he had already been hit by the needle and fell backwards. Seeing this, Mu Tou immediately stepped forward to support the unconscious Shen Peiqing.

Bei Xin lost consciousness after being hit by the needle and fell to the ground. Rong Su finally calmed the two men down and let out a breath. She then arranged for her servants to send Bei Xin back to the post station.

After Mu Tou sent Shen Peiqing back to his room, Rong Su asked him to get a basin of hot water for Shen Peiqing.

Then she sat down on the edge of the bed, staring at the quiet and handsome face lying on it for a long time, and then sighed silently.

She whispered to the comatose Shen Peiqing, "You're not a child anymore. Why are you angry with Bei Xin? Don't worry. I will make Bei Xin give up. You should just focus on the war."

Soon after he finished speaking, Mu Tou brought hot water. Rong Su personally washed Shen Pei's face before leaving.

When she left Shen Peiqing's room, she called out to Mu Tou: "Your Majesty, how is your condition now?"

The first time Rong Su met His Majesty was at His Majesty’s coronation ceremony. It was such a heavy responsibility for such a young child to shoulder the mission of a country.

Mu Tou understood Rong Su's concerns, but he did not hide anything and told her the truth.

"Your Majesty, now that the master has returned and the master has been comforting you, your Majesty is in a much better mood. However, your Majesty is still a six-year-old child after all. I hope Miss Rong will ask for permission to come to the palace to see your Majesty if she is free."

Knowing that Xuanyuan You's condition was not that serious, Rong Su felt relieved. After all, this child was Xuanyuan Yuance's child, and Xuanyuan Yuance was so good to her, like her father. So, she naturally treated Xuanyuan You as her own brother.

"okay, I get it."

-

In order to allow Shen Peiqing to go to the battlefield with peace of mind, Rong Su decided to deal with Bei Xin first.

She made an appointment with Bei Xin to meet at the teahouse.

When Bei Xin saw Rong Su, he looked very happy, as if he had forgotten all the unhappiness of last night.

"Miss Rong, do you know? When I found out you asked me out, I was so happy I couldn't even imagine it."

He smiled and sat opposite her, keeping a certain distance from her, as if he was taking special care of her because he didn't want to put pressure on her.

Rong Su saw it and understood his feelings, but matters of the heart cannot be forced.

After pouring a cup of tea for Bei Xin and pushing it to him, she went straight to the point.

"Young Master, I told you before. I have someone I like."

Bei Xin's originally happy expression suddenly faded, and he retracted the hand he had just extended.

"I know. Miss Rong said that before. But it doesn't matter. As long as I'm not married, I still have a chance, right? Miss Rong, give me a chance. I believe I can definitely be your ideal husband!"

Bei Xin patted his chest, his face sincere, and even his peach blossom eyes were determined.

Rong Su looked at him like this, and did not rush to say anything harsh. Instead, she asked calmly, "What do you like about me?"

As soon as this question came out, Bei Xin seemed to have already thought of how to answer it, and quickly blurted out: "You are special, you are not like other women who are tempted by my body odor!"

To Rong Su, this answer was almost what she had thought, and she smiled faintly at Bei Xin.

"Young Master, you've concluded that you like me simply because of one special thing about me. That's too casual. You have to know that liking someone isn't about liking their uniqueness, but about liking everything about them, including their ordinariness and lack of specialness. You haven't even gotten to the point of understanding me, so how can you even talk about liking them?"

After hearing this, Bei Xin fell into deep thought and confusion, and then, as if unwilling to give up, he said, "As long as you give me a chance to understand you, I will definitely like you!"

Rong Su faced Bei Xin's persistence and shook her head helplessly: "But liking someone isn't something you can just give them a chance to do. Besides, he and I already had an agreement. As long as he keeps his promise, we will be together forever. Young Master, would you force someone you like to do something she doesn't like?"

The expression on Bei Xin's face changed from unwilling to confused, then to sad and lonely, and finally to shaking his head in frustration.

"I won't do that. But do you hate me that much? You won't even give me a chance?"

Rong Su could feel that Bei Xin's feelings for her were very pure. He was the kind of person who liked someone if he liked them and hated someone if he hated them.

He was also very direct and clear in expressing his feelings. The more he did so, the more guilty she felt towards him. However, this matter had to be cut cleanly.

"I don't hate you. But our relationship can only be friends. I'm sorry." Rong Su said these words to Bei Xin calmly with a faint expression.

After hearing this, Bei Xin's face showed obvious sadness, his eyes lowered, and he seemed to be shrouded in gloom.

"Is this the only way?"

"Yes," she said firmly.

Bei Xin suddenly became even more gloomy, and said dejectedly, "I'm really unwilling to accept this. But I don't want you to be troubled because of me. Is the person you have in mind the Regent?"

Rong Su did not deny it this time and nodded generously.

After learning the answer, Bei Xin felt even more uncomfortable, but he pretended to be fine and looked at her with a smile on his face again.

"Okay, I get it. I won't bother you anymore. But, like you said, we can still be friends, right?"

Rong Su nodded. She would definitely not refuse this request. After all, Dongzhou and Ancheng were now allies on the same boat.

Bei Xin saw Rong Su nod, and felt relieved. He smiled sadly, "At least we can still be friends."

She sighed silently in her heart.

Suddenly, Axia ran towards her hurriedly from not far away, with an anxious expression.

"Girl! Please go and save the princess! She's been drugged!"

Upon hearing that Lianxin was in trouble, Rong Su quickly stood up from her chair with a serious expression.

"What! Take me there!"

Seeing that Bei Xin was still there, she hurriedly said, "I have something to do now. If it's okay with you, Master, I won't see you off."

Bei Xin saw that Rong Su was very anxious about something and should have left. After all, he had been severely rejected, which was a very embarrassing thing. But he couldn't pretend to ignore Rong Su's troubles when he knew about it.

"Miss Rong, I'll go with you. Maybe I can help."

Axia was already extremely anxious and kept urging: "Girl!"

Rong Su knew that she couldn't delay any longer, so she could only nod and agree to let Bei Xin go with her.

Led by Axia, they arrived at the Prince of Jin'an's Mansion.

After entering, I saw a lot of people standing in the side hall, talking.

There are even some quite elderly people.

It must be those elders from the side branch of King Jin'an who Lianxin mentioned had always been making things difficult for her.

Rong Su immediately understood that these people must have wanted to make Lianxin and the collateral relatives have a fait accompli, so they drugged Lianxin.

After thinking this through, Rong Su became furious and wished she could teach those shameless old men a lesson on behalf of Lian Xin.

But Lianxin's condition is very serious now, and she can't be delayed by other things, so she ignores those people for the time being.

But just because Rong Su ignored it didn't mean those people wouldn't come and cause trouble.

"Axia! Who did you invite to the palace? Do you know that it is a crime to let anyone into the palace at will?"

A middle-aged man with a serious face and a pair of gloomy and sharp eyes yelled at Axia at this moment. While he was speaking, someone blocked their way to Lianxin's room.

When Axia saw those men blocking the way, she became even more anxious and scared, and looked at Rong Su for help.

The middle-aged man noticed that the woman Axia had found looked somewhat familiar, but when he thought about the fact that she was just a woman, he became even more emboldened and continued to threaten Rong Su, saying, "Miss, I advise you to stop meddling in other people's business and leave the palace immediately. Otherwise, I will clear you of any crime and punish you for trespassing."

Rong Su felt a little amused when she saw the middle-aged man's arrogant look. Bei Xin couldn't stand it anymore and seemed to want to step forward to speak for Rong Su, but she stretched out her hand to stop Bei Xin and said to him in a low voice, "I can handle this matter."

Bei Xin looked at her a little worriedly. Seeing that she was so persistent, he still chose to believe that she could solve it herself. He retreated to his original position and looked at the middle-aged man opposite with cold eyes.

The middle-aged man saw Bei Xin's eyes and was slightly frightened, because Bei Xin's eyes were extremely cold. However, he saw that Bei Xin was just a young boy, and immediately comforted himself that he didn't need to be afraid of Rong Su and the others. He was the second uncle of King Jin'an, and he believed that outsiders like Rong Su had no power.

"Come here, get them out!" The middle-aged man began to give orders to the servants.

When Axia saw this, she became even more anxious: "Girl!"

Rong Su looked at A Xia with a soothing look. After seeing this, A Xia was still anxious, but chose to trust Rong Su and calm down.

Seeing several servants beginning to gather around, Rong Su spoke directly: "I am a good friend invited by the princess. What qualifications do you have to chase me away?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the middle-aged man frowned. Seeing that the servants began to look at him, he began to wink, as if he did not take Rong Su's words seriously at all.

"I am the second uncle of King Jin'an. The princess is not feeling well now. It is not convenient for her to see guests. Please go back, young lady."

Seeing that the middle-aged man began to play dumb, Rong Su narrowed her eyes and saw the servants starting to come over again.
