Chapter 37
Nangong Yun looked into Du Yunlie's eyes with a trace of chill, "My lord, I remember telling you before, since I was a child, no one forced me to do things I didn't want to do, and it's the same now. The emperor's marriage is indeed undeniable. But if you force me, what you marry will only be a corpse. Even if you get my man, so what, if you use coercion to force me to submit, it will only make me hate you, and you, too Will never get my heart."

Du Yunlie raised his eyebrows and looked at Nangong Yun, half of her face was immersed in the halo, and her lacquer-like black eyes were gleaming and smooth, but with indescribable stubbornness and firmness.

"You would rather die than marry me, and I just make you hate me?" Du Yunlie was impatient.

"My lord." Nangong Yun met his blood red eyes and said word by word: "You can't give me what I want."

Du Yunlie looked at her in surprise, he is a prince, what she wants, he can't give it?

Nangong Yun said seriously: "You are a prince, your status is destined to have three wives and four concubines, I have also seen your side concubines, to be honest, I don't want to spend the rest of my life with these women Intrigue, just to get your sporadic favor."

Du Yunlie was taken aback. Could it be that what she wants is...

"What I want is a couple for the rest of my life. Can the prince give it to me? I can't share a husband with other women, and the prince can't leave Yun'er alone by his side, so we are destined not to be together." Nangong Yun looked at him and said seriously.

Du Yunlie was slightly startled, the elegant smile on his lips had long since disappeared.

This woman is smart, sharp, cunning, and sharp.

She knew exactly what she wanted, and she didn't hide it at all. The strong self-confidence that radiated from head to toe was so radiant and dazzling.

He stared at her, there was no hesitation on her face, it was silent and calm.

Her stubbornness, ordinary people really can't stand it...

"That's all. Since you don't want to marry, I beg Brother Huang to take back his life." Du Yunlie sighed softly.

Nangong Yun was stunned on the spot, she was ready to fight Du Yunlie to the death, but with his simple words, he actually agreed to her unreasonable request.

"You agree?" Nangong Yun asked in disbelief.

Du Yunlie glanced at her indifferently: "What else can I do if I disagree? Could it really kill you? I don't want you to die right now."

Nangong Yunqian swallowed, listening to this, why are you so awkward?
"It's fine if you don't marry me, or you will be tired of dealing with these women in the mansion. But—" Du Yunlie looked at her leisurely, "One day, I will let you marry me willingly."

Nangong Yun's eyebrows twitched, noncommittal.

Walking out of Prince Qi's mansion, sitting in the carriage, Nangong Yun lifted the curtain to look at the street scene, a self-deprecating smile slipped across his heart.

She actually told Du Yunlie that what she was looking forward to was the love of "a couple for a lifetime"?

In this world, she is probably the person who is least qualified to say this.

but--

After all, she has lived a new life, shouldn't she let go of the past?If she did it all over again, she would definitely not allow herself to degenerate and become a mistress...

Putting down the curtains, Nangong Yun closed his eyes fiercely, and a trace of coolness slid down his cheeks.

In fact, like most women, she yearns for love...

-

As soon as Nangong Yun left, Du Yunlie got down from the bed, and all the iron and blood thirteen riders stood in front of him, and hurriedly reached out to help him.

Du Yunlie pushed them away, and said lightly: "It's okay, it's an arm that's disabled, not a leg."

"My lord..." Thirteen iron-blooded knights knelt down on the ground at the same time, with tears bursting from their eyes, with endless remorse and self-blame: "This subordinate deserves to die, for failing to protect the lord, please punish the lord!"

Du Yunlie pushed open the window with his left hand, looked at the sunset in the distance, and couldn't help but sigh: "The sunset is infinitely better, but it's almost dusk."

Under the setting sun, Du Yunlie's facial features were sprinkled with a layer of golden brilliance, making his already picturesque eyebrows even more gorgeous.

He turned around and said lightly: "It's none of your business, get up."

The Iron Blood Thirteen Knights looked at each other, the boss took the lead, stood up one after another, and stood in front of Du Yunlie in three rows, orderly.

Du Yunlie's deep eyes were mixed with a bit of sternness: "Someone wanted to kill me, but I didn't even know who the enemy was. No wonder I was plotted several times. Have you found any results from your investigation?"

The boss took two steps forward, cupped his hands and said, "Reporting to the lord, all the men in black who assassinated the lord that day have been arrested, but we haven't gotten anything out of them yet, and we've crushed each one of them." Molar, committed suicide by taking poison."

The third child continued: "I have asked someone to test it, and the poison they took is called 'Wuling powder', which is a powder made from the five water chestnuts of the bamboo water chestnut, and it is highly poisonous. Once it gets a little bit of saliva, it will kill you on the spot. "

"Wuling powder? Why have you never heard of it?" Du Yunlie frowned slightly.

The third child hurriedly explained: "This kind of poison is produced in the Western Regions, and it is the unique secret book of the Tang Sect. It is strange, as far as I know, the Tang Sect was wiped out ten years ago, and all the poisons were destroyed. This Wuling San Coming out of the arena suddenly, I'm afraid it will cause another bloody storm."

Du Yunlie pondered for a moment, then asked coldly: "Does the poison I've been poisoned this time have anything to do with the Tang Sect?"

The third child glanced at the fifth child, and the fifth child understood, stepped forward and replied, "My lord, the poison you have been poisoned this time is called 'Ban Xin San' and it has the same origin as the 'Duan Sheng Yuan Duck' last time. They are all produced in Lingnan, we checked all the way, and the result..."

"What's the result?" Du Yunlie saw that the third child hesitated to speak, so he knew that there must be something difficult to say.

Old Sanyi gritted his teeth: "As a result, we found that the origin of this poison is in Qinhuai."

"Qinhuai?" Du Yunlie murmured, but smiled slightly: "Isn't Qinhuai the hometown of the Shen family? It seems that there is really a 'hidden dragon and crouching tiger' around me..."

The people who rode the iron blood thirteen didn't dare to say anything. It was about the prince's family affairs, so they didn't dare to comment on it.

"Investigate again and find conclusive evidence. I don't want to wrong her for nothing." Du Yunlie's voice was very cold.

"Yes." Thirteen Jagged Knights bowed their heads in response.

Du Yunlie was a little tired, leaning lightly on the back of the chair, looking at the charming peach blossoms outside the window, he said leisurely: "The peach blossoms bloom really well this year, how about Qinhuai?"

He suddenly turned his head and said to Lao Ba: "Lao Ba, you make arrangements. On the first day of next month, I will go to the Qinhuai River for a walk, quietly, don't let the wind out."

"Yes." Although Lao Ba didn't know what the prince was going to do, he still agreed without hesitation.

"Jin Yu, tell Fourth Miss Nangong that I will go to Qinhuai with her on the first day of next month." Du Yunlie said calmly.
