Chapter 697: Chapter 697 The Man Who Doesn’t Understand Romance (6)_1

"Dismissed!"

Nangong Yi said indifferently.

"Thank you, Your Highness King Qin!"

Shen Furong bowed again before slowly, tremblingly, standing up. She was extremely excited. His Highness King Qin had noticed her and he had spoken to her. His voice was so lovely, like the casual strumming of an ancient zither - intoxicating to the ear.

Shen Furong regained her composure and spoke in a lovely voice, "My father worries that King Qin might not have good food in the military camp, so he sent me here with some food and essential medicine. Please accept them, Your Highness."

Nangong Yi simply nodded and instructed the attendant next to him, "Collect them and distribute them amongst the soldiers of the Three Armies."

Immediately, all the soldiers present in the tent got up, thanked King Qin loudly and said, "Thank you for the reward, King Qin!"

Seeing this scene, Shen Furong quickly said, "Your Highness, all these items are rare delicacies, specially prepared by my father for you to strengthen your body. Look..."

All these items were indeed rare delicacies, for example, the Siam pig from Qu Luo Kingdom, roast duck from Lady Shen’s Roast Duck, Yu Family’s Crystalized Pork Knuckle, and some bird’s nest, monkey head mushrooms, shark fins etc...

She had hoped that King Qin would think of her while enjoying these delicacies. If all these were given away, how would he remember her? Moreover, these delicacies were originally prepared exclusively for him - there wasn’t enough to share amongst so many people!

Just as she finished speaking, Nangong Yi’s expression darkened - his voice turning as cold as a harsh winter day.

"What? Do I need your opinion on how to distribute the military supplies?"

"No, no... I dare not!"

Shen Furong was startled by Nangong Yi’s sudden coldness, and hastily raised her head to plead her case, her big, misty eyes full of panic.

"Humph, at least you know your place. Go now!"

Nangong Yi had no interest in arguing with her. He waved his hand, signaling he wished to resume strategizing with his generals.

Shen Furong has overcame mountains and traversed vast distances over two days to get here. Her dream was to bewitch King Qin and change her fate. How could she bear to leave now? Seeing that King Qin had lowered his head to study the maps and clearly showed no intention of entertaining her plea, and that King Qin’s attendant had approached her, implying that she should leave, she clenched her teeth, took a step forward and said, "Your Highness, before I left, my father had instructed me not return. He had asked that I serve by your side from today onwards. Please fulfill my father’s loyalty to you!"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Yi raised his head and looked at Shen Furong, coldly mocking her, "Even if Lord Shen County is an official of the Imperial Court, he should know the rules that women are not allowed in a military camp, right? Or perhaps he has hidden intentions, deliberately attempting to corrupt the discipline of my army, and weaken the will of the soldiers?"

The other generals also frowned, their faces filled with disgust as they looked at Shen Furong.

This woman had audacity! She actually nominated herself to be King Qin’s woman in full view of everyone. Doesn’t she know her place? With Royal Consort of King Qin here, she doesn’t even deserve to carry King Qin’s shoes!

Shen Furong hadn’t expected her nomination to be outright rejected by King Qin. Despite boldly using Shen Luming’s name to support her claim, his blunt refusal and accusation of her disrupting the king’s harmony shocked her, causing her knees to go weak and drop to the floor in a sob, "Please, King Qin, forgive me! My father is just worried that there isn’t a woman with a careful eye in the army. With only men as attendants, he is concerned that they may overlook some things. For this reason, he sent me here. Please, King Qin, I beg you to pardon my father, for his loyalty’s sake..."
