Chapter 20: Twenty Pure
Although Zhao Jinyan still maintained his usual cold look on his face, it could be seen from the stiffness of his facial muscles. At this moment, he was very embarrassed.
He subconsciously glanced at Fleur, but he didn't expect that Fleur was also looking at him embarrassedly at this time. After the two collided with each other, they both involuntarily turned their eyes away.
When Zhao Jinyan saw this, he was particularly embarrassed.
He doesn't know what evil he has bumped into recently, obviously he has no friendship with Xia Furui over the years, but recently, he has bumped into each other three times and twice, and every time, it is such an embarrassing scene.
The first two times were fine, but this time, he didn't bump into it by accident, but was pulled in and eavesdropped. After being discovered, he really wanted to leave directly, but with him, Wei Lin still had to pull him forward.
Fu Hui didn't know what Zhao Jinyan was thinking, but she held back an urge to scold people in her heart, especially when she saw Wei Lin's appearance that she was obviously found to have done something bad but was not weak at all, but had a funny look, she couldn't wait to smash the box in her hand on the other party's handsome face.
She and Wei Lin are also relatives, and his grandmother is the eldest princess of Suiyang, that is, the aunt of the eldest princess of Jinyang. But it is too far away, although the Empress Dowager Wen and the eldest princess of Suiyang are very close to each other, and Fu Hui has also seen this aunt and grandmother in the Empress Dowager's palace many times, but for Wei Lin, the grandson of the eldest princess of Suiyang, I really haven't seen it a few times.
The reason why some impressions can be recognized is due to the good face of the other party, who is known as the first son of the capital, only because he is too handsome, it will make people unforgettable.
Of course, at this moment, Fleur didn't think that the other party was handsome at all, she felt that the other party's face, in addition to being under-flat, was still under-flat!
Wei Lin and Zhao Jinyan will walk together, and Fu Hui is not surprised, after all, these two are close friends, and no one will know about it. Can...... The two of them were so good that they walked together to peep, and Fleur really felt speechless and choked.
She was embarrassed and embarrassed on her side, and she wanted to leave immediately. The other party who was eavesdropped, Zhao Jin'an, was much calmer, but after all, he was listened to by someone with a little private words, and his heart was also unnatural.
Wei Lin smiled and came to the two of them, teasing in his mouth: "Leave us alone, you continue to talk and continue, what are you talking about?" Oh, by the way, that means only our sister Fleur can be worthy of this pearl......"
"Wei Shizi, cousin Wei Lin......"
Zhao Jinan begged for mercy and waved his hand at Wei Lin, hoping that the other party would show mercy.
Wei Lin only looked at it with a smile, although he stopped talking, but his hand suddenly poked out, and before Fu Hui could react, the box that he was still holding in his hand fell into Wei Lin's hands.
Wei Lin opened the box and said, "I want to see what the biggest pearl in the North Sea looks like, it's a blessing for eyes today!" β
Zhao Jinyan listened on the side, only feeling embarrassed and inappropriate, and before he could reach out to stop it, Wei Lin had already opened the box with his hand.
Sure enough, there was a pearl in the box, it was indeed big, as big as a woman's fist, but it was amazing. Perhaps because the pearl is too big, it has lost the unique charm of the pearl, and on the surface, there is only a layer of cold white light, and there is no warm feeling of the pearl.
Wei Lin glanced at it, then lost interest and directly buckled the lid. He threw it casually, not back into the hands of Fu Yuan, but into the hands of the third prince, and said with a lack of virtue in his mouth: "Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, you shouldn't have been deceived!" This pearl is big, but it's a little fake, it's not good-looking! β
When Zhao Jinan heard this, his face was a little embarrassed, and Zhao Jinyan, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but pull Wei Lin, and stopped him in a cold voice: "Wei Lin, don't talk nonsense." β
After saying this, he bowed slightly to Zhao Jinan and said, "Second brother, I'm sorry, Wei Lin and I will leave first." β
Zhao Jinyan has never known how to play a round, and what he said just now was also blunt, but it more or less alleviated a little embarrassment.
Zhao Jinan nodded stiffly, and only after watching Zhao Jinyan pull Wei Lin away did he breathe a sigh of relief. He turned his head to look at Fleur, hesitated and whispered, "Fleur, if you don't like this gift, I'll give you something else?" β
When Fleur heard this, how could she really say this, that is, she didn't plan to accept the gift, so she had to accept it now.
"The second cousin laughed, I ...... I love this gift. β
After Fleur said this, in order to show the sincerity of her words, she deliberately stretched out her hand to receive the gift.
Zhao Jinan showed a bright smile on his face, which was very infectious, and it couldn't help but improve when he looked at it.
When Fu Hui returned to the main hall of the palace where the Queen Mother lived with Zhao Jin'an's gift, the meal had been placed on the table in the main hall, but only the eldest princess of Jinyang sat in front of the table.
When the eldest princess of Jinyang saw Fleur, she beckoned Fleur to sit down beside her, and explained: "Your grandmother was tired and used some porridge to eat, so she lay down." β
"Well, what about my brother, won't he come back?"
Fu Yuan nodded, but asked Xia Yuelang.
The eldest princess of Jinyang replied casually: "Your uncle left the meal, so he won't come." By the way, what is it? β
The eldest princess of Jinyang's eyes fell on the box that Fu Hui put on the table, and asked casually. However, I am afraid that I already know the source of this box in my heart.
Fleur didn't hide it, and replied softly: "It's my second cousin's birthday gift." β
"Can my mother take a look?"
It is rare that the eldest princess of Jinyang is not domineering and arbitrary, and she also opened her mouth to ask.
Since Fu Hui brought the gift back and put it in front of the eldest princess of Jinyang, it was naturally impossible to stop it.
She nodded and handed the gift in her hand to the eldest princess of Jinyang.
After the eldest princess of Jinyang opened it, she took a look at it and closed the lid again, without expressing any opinion on this gift. It's just that when she put the gift back in Furao's hand, she opened her mouth and asked: "Furao, my mother asked you, do you want to marry Zhao Jin'an?" β
Fu Hui didn't expect the eldest princess of Jinyang to suddenly say such a sentence, she was stunned for a moment, and then she shook her head again and again to deny it.
"Mother Mo Hu said, I just treat my second cousin as a brother, how can I have such thoughts!"
When the eldest princess of Jinyang heard this, the corners of her mouth were pulled up, and she smiled lightly. Her expression was very soft, and she looked at Fu Hui and said softly: "When my mother asked you if you liked His Royal Highness the Prince, you said that you would treat His Royal Highness the Crown Prince as a brother. When your mother asked you if you liked Zhao Jin'an, you also replied like this, then you sue sΓΉ mother, who do you like? Is it difficult or that Zhao Jinyan? β
"Mother, how could I ......?"
Fleur was a little anxious, she was so anxious that she didn't know how to explain, and it took a long time before she said in a loud voice, "Those are my cousins, and I don't have other ideas." What's more, why did my mother only think that I would choose between a few cousins? β
Fu Hui didn't care about being embarrassed and shy, but asked the eldest princess of Jinyang seriously.
The eldest princess of Jinyang was stunned for a moment when she was asked such a rhetorical question, but she quickly shook her head with a smile, looking at Fu Yuan's gaze as if she was looking at an ignorant child. She stretched out her hand and touched Fleur's head, and said softly: "My daughter is so good, where is an ordinary man worthy, she has to be worthy of this best man in the world." And this best man is in the royal family, whether it is power, appearance, talent and knowledge, who can compare to these cousins of yours! β
Fleur's lips moved, wanting to speak, but for a moment she didn't know what to say.
The eldest princess of Jinyang smiled again: "What's more, the building near the water gets the moon first, silly boy, this is the best man in the world for you to choose, why do you want to go far and near!" β
"Who does my mother want me to marry?"
Fu Yuan didn't refute this, but just looked at the eldest princess of Jinyang and asked.
When the eldest princess of Jinyang heard this, she smiled and said, "My mother hopes that you can marry His Royal Highness the Prince." β
"But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince already has a princess ......"
"Silly boy, the Chen family is not afraid, as long as you want that position, my mother will let them give this position to you." The eldest princess of Jinyang smiled wantonly, she looked at Fu Rui's disapproving appearance, softened her tone, and said softly, "Mother wants you to marry His Royal Highness the Prince, not because he is His Royal Highness the Prince, but because Mother knows that only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is good to you if he likes you purely." It's only because of you that I want to marry you and be with you. β
Fu Rui looked at the soft and smiling gaze of the eldest princess of Jinyang, and was stunned for a moment, and after a while, she asked in a daze: "Since my mother is optimistic about His Royal Highness the Prince, why do you want to ask my three cousins, who do I want to marry?" β
The eldest princess of Jinyang shook her head with a smile and explained softly: "Mother hopes that you will be happy, and I hope you can choose the person you like." Marrying His Royal Highness the Prince, your future life will be smooth and happy, and with His Royal Highness the Prince's love for you, you will definitely live a relaxed and happy life in the future. But if you like other people, your mother will not object, and your mother will arrange it for you, but you will work harder. β
"I know my mother and sister are thinking about me. It's just that these things you said are too far away, that is, one day, I have to make choices for my own life, and I don't want to hurt others, let alone others to marry me for a purpose. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince treats me very well, so I sincerely wish His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can be happy as soon as possible, so that the royal family can have an incense inheritance. My second cousin has taken care of me since I was a child, thinking about me, and I believe that he is really good to me and not wanting to get anything from me......"
When Fleur said this, she was actually a little confused. From an objective analysis, she also knew in her heart that in fact, the second prince Zhao Jinan was a good choice for her. She can not bear the condemnation of conscience, but also have a marriage that is blessed by all.
But she really never had the idea of making Zhao Jinan her husband in the future, maybe there are some things that she is too idealistic.
Fleur looked at the box with the pearls in her hand, and couldn't help but think deeply, maybe she really should think about her future now.
It's just that Fu Rui's idea just came to mind, but she heard the eldest princess of Jinyang say to her with a smile again: "It's really too early for my mother to tell you these things. You are still young, and what you can see now will be much less than what you will see in the future. And the current thinking, compared to the future, will also change a lot. β
"Not everyone is as simple and purposeless as you."
When the eldest princess of Jinyang said the last sentence, she meant something, but she didn't reveal anything.
