concubines are respected

Chapter 122 The Covenant of Gentlemen
Murong Haotian didn't refuse, picked up the wine glass and drank it down again.

The third prince drank three glasses of wine in a row, his eyes became slack, and his speech speed was much slower, "Gu... Gu is not very strong for drinking, so I can't drink any more. I have to teach Miss Lin to practice tomorrow. If I get drunk, won't I I missed the time for horse training..."

"It doesn't matter, if the third prince can't teach on time tomorrow, I can take over for a day." Murong Haotian also felt that his eyes were a little dizzy, but his thoughts were clear.

"Master, this servant has prepared some small dishes, master, please take your time." The maid who prepared the dishes entered the room with a tray.

Inside the tray, there are cold tripe shreds, crispy beans, white mushroom slices, and crispy chicken breast... Although there are not many dishes, they are quite delicate.

There were wine cups on both sides of the Fu table, but in the center was the scroll that the third prince was reading just now.

The palace maid had no choice but to put the tray on the side of the case and carefully arrange the case.

At the moment when the palace servants were tidying up, Murong Haotian discovered that the scrolls placed in front of the third prince were actually placed upside down. So upside down, could it be that he was reading at night while holding candles?

Murong Haotian was a little funny, and was about to say something funny, when a light and familiar fragrance wafted into his nostrils, which made him half awake from the drunkenness, and subconsciously looked around, but didn't see the haunted man. Qianying, but this fragrance is...
"Master, why is your silk handkerchief under the scroll?" The maidservant's voice came, and there was a silk handkerchief embroidered with a golden python in her hand, and the fragrance continued to radiate from the silk handkerchief after shaking it lightly.

Is this thing?Today in the arena, the object that Suxian handed to the third prince turned out to be this object?There was a muffled bang in Murong Haotian's head, and he felt a tightness in his chest, as if it was much more difficult to breathe. Why is the third prince's personal belongings in Suxian's hands? Could it be that the two of them... really have something to say? the secret of...

Murong Haotian's face turned pale, and he didn't dare to think about it any further, his arm holding the wine cup trembled uncontrollably, the wine overflowed the cup and dripped onto the table.

The drunk-eyed third prince obviously also smelled the fragrance, glared angrily, snatched the silk handkerchief from the hand of the palace maid, and shouted sharply, "Presumptuous, who told you to tamper with lonely objects? Get out, get out!"

"Master, servant girl..." The maidservant's face turned earthy in shock, what happened to the master today, and she took care of herself like this on weekdays, why did she become so angry today, she just whispered a word, but met the angry gaze of the third prince, He was silent for a while, not daring to say anything, and hurriedly retreated.

The faint blood in the eyes of the third prince became more intense. I don't know if it's because of the anger or drinking. At the same time, he quickly put the handkerchief in his arms, picked up the wine cup uncomfortably, and said to Murong Haotian Said, "Brother Haotian, cheers!"

This time, Murong Haotian did not raise his glass, but fixedly stared into the eyes of the third prince, and said very slowly, "Third prince, although you are the king and Haotian is the minister, but these years, Haotian has Treat you as a close relative and brother. Third Prince, you should understand Haotian's thoughts, right?"

"Lonely...Lonely understand..." The third prince put down the wine cup, dragged over the tray containing the side dishes, and casually picked up the chopsticks on the tray, holding the crispy beans on the plate, However, after pinching it several times in a row, Qiaodou slipped off the chopsticks, and the third prince put the chopsticks aside with a 'snap' sound slightly annoyed.

Murong Haotian witnessed everything, and it wasn't until the third prince put down his chopsticks that he said, "Man, do something and don't do something. Haotian respects the third prince as a brother, and hopes that the third prince will abide by the way of being a brother... ··”

Although not specified, but both of them have their own ideas.

"Brother Haotian, you misunderstood him as a brother." The third prince was half awake from the wine at this time, and his speech became much smoother.

"Oh... Haotian wishes this was a misunderstanding..." As he said that, Murong Haotian became a little dull, and then changed the subject, "The third prince has practiced martial arts for many years, how can he use snow dew to relieve his fatigue?" .”

The third prince was silent for a long time, as if he had made up his mind, he took out the silk handkerchief dyed with the scent of snow dew from his arms, spread it flat on the table, and said seriously, "I borrowed this handkerchief from Miss Lin yesterday to wipe the stains." Miss Lin took it back to wash the orphan and returned it today. Maybe it was because Miss Lin soaked in snow dew yesterday, so she inadvertently smelled the smell of snow dew on the silk handkerchief. This is how it happened , Haotian doesn't need to think too much about him."

Facing the calmness of the third prince, Murong Haotian felt a little ashamed, it seemed that he was indeed too nervous and Suxian, his usual composure no longer existed, and he actually suspected the third prince.

In his thoughts, the third prince's voice continued to sound, "Brother Haotian just said that is right, a man can do something and not do something. Since Gu and you are called brothers, if you have strange thoughts in your heart, you will never hide them. ··" As he spoke, he paused for a moment, with an abnormal flush on his face, "Gu admits that Gu is indeed interested in Miss Lin..."

As soon as the words finished, Murong Haotian loosened the fingers of the wine cup that was being held, the wine cup fell on the table, the cup fell to the ground, sprinkled water all over the table, and even onto the silk handkerchief that was spread flat on the table, giving off a faint fragrance , was soon covered by a strong smell of alcohol.

Murong Haotian's reaction was already expected by the third prince, "Brother Haotian, don't worry, Gu is not a person who uses power to oppress others. At this time, Gu is frank with you, but I just don't want to betray the love between you and me as a brother. I promise you that before the competition is over and everything is unclear, I will force this thought to the back of my mind. If Miss Lin wins the competition and becomes the imperial concubine, Gu will cut her love with her sword from now on, and will decide Zunlin as her younger brother and sister. There will definitely be no wrong thoughts. If Ms. Lin loses in the competition, I will not use power to overwhelm others, I will definitely respect Ms. Lin's choice and deal with it with the way of a gentleman."

Murong Haotian was stunned and didn't say anything. Although the other party is a brother, he is also a king. If he asks the emperor for a marriage, according to the current situation, the emperor will naturally agree, and it can be regarded as a favor for the sixth princess.But not only did he not do that, but he told himself frankly that everything is enough to show that although he likes Suxian, he is not willing to marry by force. An afternoon of doubts.

"The third prince can be so frank with Haotian, it shows that he didn't treat Haotian as an outsider, Haotian thank you here!" Murong Haotian stood up, and gave the three emperors a deep blessing with a solemn expression. He continued, "In this case, Haotian will tell you bluntly that after the match, regardless of the outcome, Haotian will not marry Lin Suxian!"

"Hahaha! Well, brother Haotian is really a man of temperament." The third prince was slightly taken aback, then stood up with a big smile, and said loudly, "In this case, I will make an agreement with you. If you two As long as the marriage contract is still in place, Gu will never pester Miss Lin. If the marriage contract between the two of you is gone, then everything depends on fate. No matter what the ending is, you should bless each other and don't feel resentful. Brother Haotian, look at this How are you?"

"A gentleman!" Murong Haotian raised his hands and said solemnly.

"It's hard to catch a four-horse horse!" The third prince responded, and immediately clapped his hands up.

There were crisp applause in the room...
