Chapter 415: Choosing a Husband

“If I were to change places, I would probably make the same choice.”

Thinking of what Song Qingshu said before, Wang Yuyan finally realized it and couldn’t help but look him over in surprise.

Song Qingshu continued, “Although Young Master Murong can be regarded as a versatile man in both civil and military affairs, there are many superior heroes in the world. To be honest, his ability is not up to par. If he wants to revive the Yan Dynasty, he can only be said to have great ambitions and weak talents.”

Wang Yuyan opened her mouth, and subconsciously wanted to refute, but after thinking about it carefully, she realized that what the man said was not unreasonable. The hope of her cousin reviving the Yan Dynasty was really slim…

“Actually, if it’s just that, it’d be okay for Miss Wang to follow Young Master Murong. A couple going through hardships would add more emotions. However, I think Young Master Murong has become obsessed with the idea of ??restoring the dynasty. In his heart, nothing is as important as restoring the Yan Dynasty. If someone offers to help him restore the dynasty in the future, but on the condition of asking for Miss Wang, do you think Master Murong will abandon you?” Song Qingshu looked at her meaningfully.

Hearing the word “couple”, Wang Yuyan felt a sweetness in her heart and looked shy. However, after hearing the next few words, her face turned pale, because based on her understanding of Murong Fu, it was easy to guess the terrible ending.

“No, no, my cousin wouldn’t do that to me!” Wang Yuyan shook her head dully and kept denying.

“If you were really so confident, you would just laugh at what I just said instead of emphasizing it so deliberately.” Song Qingshu sighed softly.

Song Qingshu continued, “That boy Duan Yu has a deep love for you, and he will definitely treat you better than Murong Fu. What’s more, he is the prince of Dali. Now Emperor Baoding of Dali has no children, and the throne will fall to Duan Yu sooner or later. When the time comes, you will definitely become the empress. Compared with Murong Fu’s illusory Yan Dynasty, it would be far better. What’s more, even if Murong Fu succeeds in restoring the dynasty, the position of empress may not belong to Miss Wang.”

“Then…do you want me to choose Young Master Duan?” Wang Yuyan suddenly raised her head and asked.

“If it were a peaceful and prosperous age, Duan Yu would be your best choice…” Song Qingshu shook his head slightly and changed the subject, “It’s just that now there are conflicts among the empires, and the small dynasty on the border of Dali is destined to be destroyed by other countries in the future. Miss Wang is extremely knowledgeable, and there are the lessons to be learned in the events of Madame Huarui and Xiao Zhouhou from the past. You must know what could happen to you if you choose that path.”

Wang Yuyan was startled and couldn’t help but worry about Duan Yu, “The royal family of Dali is devoted to Buddhism and has always had no disputes with the other forces. It also has good relations with the surrounding Song and Tubo countries, so it should not be in danger of destruction.”

Song Qingshu replied, “Miss Wang, you should know that Mongolia has been unable to attack Xiangyang for so many years. What if the high-level officials decide to go through Dali and attack the Song Dynasty from behind?”

Wang Yuyan had heard about the brutality of the Mongolian army, and her pretty face turned pale. Suddenly she seemed to have thought of something, and couldn’t help but look at Song Qingshu suspiciously,

“According to what you said, I can’t choose either of them…then, you don’t want me to choose you, right?”

Song Qingshu smiled faintly, “This Song is already burdened with too many women’s feelings, I am already too busy, how can I desire Miss Wang?”

Wang Yuyan finally felt relieved, and then she couldn’t help but feel a little bit of dissatisfaction in her heart.

Although she had never been proud of her own beauty, Duan Yu kept calling her his “fairy sister” all the time, and coupled with the amazing expressions on people’s faces when they saw her, she was still a little proud despite being shy.

But now, seeing that Song Qingshu didn’t take her to heart at all, she couldn’t help but think to herself, ‘Is he not attracted to me at all?’

Of course, that thought only passed by for a moment, and Wang Yuyan quickly calmed down.

“It’s getting late, I have to leave first. Miss Wang, see you later.” Song Qingshu stood up and said goodbye, then quickly disappeared.

Wang Yuyan pursed her lips and smiled, waving her hand at his back, “See you later, my close confidant.”

Although her voice was soft, Song Qingshu’s ears and eyes were so sharp now that when he heard the title, he couldn’t help but stagger and almost fell on the ground.

“I didn’t expect that Wang Yuyan, who looked so noble and acted like a lady, secretly liked to tease people?” Song Qingshu couldn’t help but mutter to himself after leaving the Golden Dragon Gang’s territory.

Suddenly, there was a melodious sound of the Guqin in the distance, and Song Qingshu couldn’t help but be startled, ‘There is actually a woman playing the Guqin in the middle of the night in the wilderness? Could it be that there is female ghosts in Liaozhai?’ (G: The guqin is a plucked seven-string Chinese musical instrument.)

If you asked him why he didn’t think the person playing the Guqin was a man. Song Qingshu thought to himself, ‘Isn’t that nonsense? A man playing such a sad and plaintive Guqin sound would be absolutely impossible!’

Song Qingshu was bold and relied on his martial arts skills to quietly follow the sound.

In the pine forest, a beautiful girl gently plucked the strings of the Guqin, and the sound came from her green and jade-like fingers.

Seeing her appearance clearly, Song Qingshu subconsciously walked over.

As soon as he arrived, two acquaintances stopped in front of him.

Song Qingshu smiled slightly, “The Princess has only brought these two people as guards, aren’t you afraid of encountering any danger?”

The young woman smiled slightly, “Although the martial arts of the two Xuanming Elders are not comparable to Your Excellency, it is more than enough to deal with the average scoundrel. As for you, we share the same worries and sorrows, so we can still be considered friends. Do you have any reason to do harm me?”

“So this is how the Princess treats her friends?” Looking at her gaze, Song Qingshu chuckled while paying close attention to the two Xuanming Elders who were blocking the way.

Zhao Min held the strings of the Guqin with both hands and said to the two Xuanming Elders, “Master Lu, Master He, you go back first. I have something to say to Young Master Song.”

The two Xuanming Elders suddenly said anxiously, “But Princess, your safety?”

Zhao Min pursed her lips and smiled, “With Young Master Song protecting this Princess, what are you worried about?”

‘He is the one we are worried about!’

The Xuanming Elders cursed in their hearts, and they couldn’t help but look at each other,

‘Junior Brother, do you believe that they don’t have a thing?’

‘Whether you believe it or not, I don’t believe it anyway.’

‘Humph, this girl loved Zhang Wuji to death before, but I didn’t expect to fall in love with another man so quickly. Wow, it’s true that an actor is ruthless and a b1tch is unrighteous.’

‘A b1tch is matched with a dog. Why do you care about what they do, Senior Brother, let’s go back and drink.’

‘That’s great!’

*****

Watching the two Xuanming Elders gradually disappear in the distance, Song Qingshu said with a smile,

“Those two subordinate of yours are quite interesting. They kept winking just now and seemed to be able to communicate with each other.”

“Those two old basta*ds, you don’t have to bother about them…they must be cursing me.” A charming blush appeared on Zhao Min’s face as she became angry.

With her sharp mind, how could she not guess what the Xuanming Elders were thinking, but they didn’t say it out loud, so Zhao Min couldn’t get angry easily.

Song Qingshu walked towards her step by step, “I was just wondering whether the person playing the Guqin in a place like this in the middle of the night was some kind of fairy or ghost. I was hesitating whether to come over, but I didn’t expect it to be you, Princess.”

Hearing the man insinuating that she was a female ghost, Zhao Min’s face darkened, “Since you are afraid of a female ghost, why did you come here?”
