Chapter 102: Leaking Daughter's Identity
Wei Luo raised her eyes and took in Jing Ling's expression at a glance.
She hastily lowered her eyes and slightly curved the corners of her mouth.
This is exactly what she needs. She has even thought it through, if Jingling asks her to undress, she will let him. Even if he confirms that she is a girl, facing such a beautiful and handsome young face, he will have psychological barriers, he won't be blinded by lust, he won't immediately execute her on the spot, nor will he take her back to the mansion as one of his concubines.
Compared to the many beauties in his mansion, her current appearance was too harsh on his eyes.
For someone like him, women are easily obtainable, he doesn't need to resort to violence against this kind of woman.
It seems now that he has been shocked too much and doesn't even have the interest to check his body.
Yao Gong glanced at Wei Luo again and turned back to Jingling Gongzi, saying: "Is this child really Wei Luo?"
It seems he has also heard of the name Weiruo.
The Duke of Jingling nodded slightly, looking a bit tired.
Yao Gong said again with his hands clasped: "Young master, this child is indeed talented, why not treat him as a scholar?"
He exhorted him again, advising Prince Jingling not to take seriously the beautiful appearance of a young man from another family, but to value talent over physical beauty.
The Prince of Jingling lazily waved his hand and said, "He has been appointed as a second-class food guest." He said this, and indeed did not dare to say more, so he turned around without looking back and ordered Weiluo: "Withdraw!"
"Agreed."
Wei Luo responded with a sound and retreated with a bow.
The Medicine King saw that he was truly unmoved by the other's beauty, nodded in satisfaction and turned to leave. He walked quickly, flashing out of the study before Wei Luo could react.
Wei Luo didn't dare to linger either, and hastened her pace, hurrying out.
She had just taken less than five steps when Jinling Gongzi's low voice slowly came, "Wei Luo!"
Wei Luo stopped in her tracks.
She slowly turned around, lowered her hands and replied: "Yes."
"Come closer."
"Agreed."
Wei Luo's heart started racing again. Just now, the Duke of Jingling was so unenthusiastic, and she had seen it with her own eyes. How could he change his mind in just a short while?
She lowered her head and slowly walked up to the front of Jingling Gongzi.
"Kneel down."
Wei Luo immediately knelt down on the ground.
Jingling Gongzi looked down at her from a high place and said slowly: "You are very cunning!"
He said, "Children are so cunning!" With that, Wei Luo's heart tightened again, and her back was once again drenched in cold sweat. She really worried that she could deceive the usually trusting Yao Guang but couldn't fool Prince Jing of Ning.
Jingling Gongzi's sleeves fluttered as he slowly returned to his seat. After sitting comfortably, he leaned back and gazed quietly at Wei Luo, saying: "Speak! What did you fear when I came here in the past?"
It's still this issue that puzzles him.
This is a dead knot.
At the moment of Wei Luo's contemplation, Jing Ling Gongzi's voice continued to drift over faintly, "Using every trick in the book to delay and scheme. Is it all just to conceal this face? Wei Luo, little one, if you have something to say, speak clearly, if not, then beheading is also an option!"
It's also possible!
He said it's possible too!
Does he want to kill himself?
Wei Luo couldn't detect even a hint of pretence in his tone! That faint tone, that calm cadence, everything revealed the hidden exhaustion and murderous intent!
This murderous intention is without any pretence, and with his character's authority, there is no need for pretence.
He was really furious!
Wei Luo's face turned as white as paper.
She bit her lower lip and said after a while: "Please withdraw your attendants."
Jingling Gongzi was taken aback, his deep eyes stared at Wei Luo for a while, and then he slightly waved his hand.
All maids and reality have retreated one by one, and the people in the side house have also retreated one by one.
In just a short moment, within a hundred miles of this place, there will be no one who dares to approach again.
They're all gone!
The air in the study became heavy and oppressive.
Wei Luo bit her lower lip, and with great difficulty, she tasted the saliva in her mouth before saying in a low, hoarse voice: "Little one, little one, it's really a daughter."
This is a perfect interpretation.
In any era, a delicate woman without powerful backing can only be passed from one person to another. And if this woman has distinctive features and is beautiful, she is an even more valuable commodity. Like Wei Luo's current masculine yet handsome face, it is both distinctive and beautiful.
Moreover, if a woman is too talented, she may also be disliked by some virtuous scholars and swordsmen. Those who wait for them may silently perish.
The Way of Heaven, yin and yang have their order, Qian is above, governing growth, ascension, and expansion, while Kun is below, governing reception, collection, and storage. In other words, a woman who takes on the false role of Kun can only passively accept things, manage household chores, and take care of small industries. If she wants to grow, if she wants to stretch out like branches towards the sky, if she wants to reveal herself in front of people, then that would be against the Way of Qian and Kun, it would be a disruption of the world's order, an abnormal monster, and killing her would be justified.
So, after Wei Luo's words came out, Jing Ling Gongzi's breathing paused for a moment.
Weiluo's heart was tightly clenched, waiting for the verdict of the Zhenling young master! Although they hadn't spent much time together, Weiluo had always felt that he was a tolerant person.
He has a strong character, all the qualities of a king, one of which is that he can tolerate and endure.
This is an era where knowledge wins, and every country's princes and nobles open their doors to welcome wise men from all over the world in order to make their own countries strong. Therefore, in real history, Su Qin could wear the seals of six countries' prime ministers, Zhang Yi could repeatedly switch sides, but no prince dared to kill him when he defected. When Yue Yang tried to assassinate Qing Ji, Qing Ji spared this powerful assassin's life in order to show his reputation for loving talent.
The Prince of Xinling raised 3,000 retainers, these retainers although many were literate, but most were useless and couldn't even serve as watchdogs. They all came to swindle food and drink, the Prince of Xinling had no choice but to welcome them with open arms, not daring to refuse. Because he wanted a reputation for loving talent. He hoped that among the 3,000 grains of sand, he could find one or two gold nuggets.
These practices that are inexplicable in later generations were prevalent and natural at the time. Because nothing makes a country stronger than knowledge!
It can be said that the Spring and Autumn Period, Warring States Period is the era where talented people yearn to go. At that time, even royal power and strong power had to bow their heads to a large extent to scholars with insight.
Wei Luo had already showcased her talents to the Duke of Jing many times, and if it were someone else who possessed such talents, they would have long been qualified as a first-rate chef, or even received treatment as a national scholar.
However, her behavior seemed suspicious to the Duke of Jingling, making him uneasy. Moreover, she was too young, which made the Duke not take her seriously. Although he didn't trust her with important tasks, he kept her by his side, valuing her intelligence.
Wei Luo knew that the Prince of Jingling was not a narrow-minded person, and he had a strong desire to dominate the world. In this case, he should not kill himself just because he was a woman with great talent.
As expected, in a suffocating silence, the Prince of Jingling slowly said: "Relax!"
With a whoosh, Wei Luo's face turned red up to her neck. It seemed that the Duke of Jingling didn't believe in just one word, he wanted to verify it personally.
He actually wants to search him personally.
Wei Luo's small mouth trembled, she really wanted him to call a servant over. But she also understood that if she didn't want to die, it was best not to let too many people know that she was a girl. Otherwise, either she would be killed or those people would be silenced by being murdered.
After a long time, Jingling Gongzi slowly said: "Good."
Taking off the throat knot requires medicine, and Wei Luo naturally didn't have any with her. She stuttered as she said this. The Prince of Jingling hesitated for a moment.
In fact, any real man would never say that he is a daughter-in-law. Because such words can bring the greatest disaster and the greatest humiliation.
So when Wei Luo spoke out her own mind, Prince Jing had already believed her.
Half response.
"A low voice came slowly, 'What comes out of your mouth, enters my ears, it's a secret, don't leak!'"
I won! I finally won!
He wants to use my talent! He wants to actively cover up for me!
I can continue to walk in men's clothing and will not enter his harem to become a concubine, nor will I be suspected by him again!
Overjoyed, Wei Luo nodded her head and replied loudly: "Yes."
Jingling Gongzi's body leaned slightly, his breath colliding with hers, and he said in a low voice: "From now on, follow me."
At this moment, his masculine breath, his breathing, all subtly penetrated into Weiluo's heart and lungs. Weiluo didn't dare to move, letting him get close to her, letting his lips almost touch her forehead, she could only respond in a low voice, barely suppressing her shyness: "En."
