Chapter 1862 - 1850: That Woman Doesn’t Look Like a Good Person



Chapter 1862 - 1850: That Woman Doesn’t Look Like a Good Person

The people present didn’t dare to breathe heavily, either raising their heads to look at the sky or lowering their eyes to the ground.

Several grassland girls dancing were suddenly shocked; they hadn’t expected this noblewoman to be so persistent. What should they do?

A few of them nervously cast pleading looks at Batu.

Batu wiped his face; what could he say?

They always heard that the Great Chu women were delicate and weak, rarely leaving their homes, with no opinions of their own. Before marriage, they listened to their fathers, after marriage to their husbands, and even if the husband died, they had to listen to their sons.

They were exceptionally cautious, abiding by the rules.

Especially noblewomen, they were like canaries raised in cages.

Most of the Great Chu women Batu encountered were captured during wartime, and some had a fierce nature and would seize the chance to commit suicide.

Most of them were gentle and submissive, only wishing to live without any temper.

How could they compare to the forthright and candid girls of the grasslands?

But he had never seen a noblewoman like Wang Yongzhu. Seeing beautiful girls made her unable to move, fixated entirely on them.

Honestly, when Batu looked at Song Chongjin now, he felt the color on Lord Song’s head seemed somewhat wrong.

Looking at the few grassland girls kneeling before him, apparently adding color to Song Chongjin’s hat, Batu was speechless. The look Song Chongjin gave before leaving was something Batu had received.

If by tomorrow morning, these dancing girls were still here and seen by Song Chongjin, there might just be a confrontation.

Truth be told, Batu had his reasons for arranging these dancing girls.

He never thought of placing these girls beside Song Chongjin. For one, based on what he knew of Song Chongjin, he wasn’t someone obsessed with beauty. Secondly, Song Chongjin brought his wife Wang Yongzhu with him this time; moving girls to him would be counterproductive.

Batu just wanted Song Chongjin to refuse, while the lower members of the diplomatic mission were unwedded. Placing a couple beside them wasn’t much, without expecting to gather critical information, but what if? What if they gathered a bit of intelligence, inserted a few spies? It would be useful.

Unexpectedly, encountering a woman like Wang Yongzhu made Batu give up on this idea.

The focus should be on the bigger picture!

Batu first put on a smile, sending off Fu Jian and other diplomatic members to their tents.

Only then did he coldly glare at the dancing girls before him, scolding them harshly, "Useless creatures!"

The dancing girls didn’t dare speak, trembling with their heads lowered.

Scolding them now would be to no avail. Enraged, Batu kicked over the desk beside him and ordered, "Send these useless things away overnight!"

His confidant nodded to agree, waved his hand, and people came forward to drag the girls, who dared not even cry out, away.

Moving closer, the confidant whispered, "What should we do next, Lord? This strategy was wasted! Hmph, who knows what’s wrong with that Great Chu woman! How can there be such women in this world?"

Batu pondered how such a woman could exist in this world!

Rubbing his forehead, about to speak, his confidant muttered, "That Great Chu woman doesn’t seem to be a good person! So eager for beauty! Just these few dancing girls got her enthralled, imagine if she met our Queen Ah Lan, she might just pounce—"

Batu suddenly pictured a scene: everyone was solemnly meeting Queen Ah Lan, Wang Yongzhu was lustfully staring at Queen Ah Lan, then taking advantage to pounce forward, while saying, ’Oh my, you’re so beautiful, your waist is so slender, your skin is so smooth—’

His vision went dark, suddenly feeling terrified.

Finally calming his nerves, his first response was to instruct: "From tomorrow, no one is allowed to offer dancing girls or female slaves en route! Ensure the diplomatic mission reaches Wang Capital without a single female mosquito nearby! Understand?"

The confidant swallowed, reluctantly agreeing and went to make arrangements.

As for Batu, he immediately returned to the tent to report to Queen Ah Lan! Her heartfelt concern, Song Da Ren, seemed fine now, but his wife was full of issues! She must prepare mentally, not be taken lightly by this female hooligan from Great Chu!

Not long afterward, a hunting falcon silently soared into the sky, flying toward Wang Capital.

Of course, several pairs of eyes in the camp witnessed this, but they were instructed to act like nothing happened, letting it pass lightly.

Meanwhile, in the Great Chu diplomatic mission’s camp.

Returning to the tent, Wang Yongzhu patted Song Chongjin, "Will you put me down?"

Song Chongjin sneered, "Shall we have a serious talk?"

Saying this, he carried Wang Yongzhu in his arms and sat her on the bed, preparing for a heart-to-heart talk.

Wang Yongzhu’s eyes shifted, sensing something amiss; oh no, she played too deeply into the act earlier, what now?

Before she could think of a response, Song Chongjin began speaking in a very gentle yet dangerous tone, "Those dancing girls had quite slim waists, didn’t they?"

"Ah, okay, okay maybe!" Wang Yongzhu said seriously.

"Their hands were quite soft too, huh?"

"Uh, average, average—"

"I bet they smelled good in your arms, huh?"

"Not really!" Wang Yongzhu regrettably said, "Honestly, their skin was rough, yet their muscles were elastic, they looked healthy! Probably from eating beef and lamb daily, their body odor was strong, not everyone can be Princess Xiangxiang!"

"You still seem regretful?" Song Chongjin initially spoke to her half-jokingly, but hearing her words, he genuinely became annoyed.

Wang Yongzhu quickly shook her head, "No regret, not at all!"

Seeing Song Chongjin’s dark face, her heart was both amused and tender. She embraced Song Chongjin’s neck, kissed him on the cheek, "How can wildflowers and weeds outside compare to my husband! Rest assured, my encounter with them was just for entertainment, my heart always belongs to my husband!"

Song Chongjin felt amused, knowing Wang Yongzhu was playing with him deliberately. He retaliated by lowering his head...

After a while, they separated, both panting, Wang Yongzhu then said, "The eavesdroppers have left—"

They exchanged a look and relaxed on the bed. Soon, Wang Yongzhu chuckled softly, "After today’s event, Lord Batu won’t dare send dancing girls to the mission again. We’ll finally have some peace along this journey."

Song Chongjin held Wang Yongzhu closer, kissed her again, and said, "It’s a bit unfair to Madam—"

Wang Yongzhu giggled; what’s there to feel unfair about? An idea formed in her mind; with this reputation, she might use it when they reach the Grasslands Royal Capital.
