Chapter 94: Ninety-Four
Ninety-four
There were not many people waiting in Liyuan, and when Shen Rong was not there, even the people under Zhao Chengjin's room did not dare to enter casually.
The guards were all guarding outside the door, and when they saw that Princess Rui had arrived in person, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and their faces showed an expression that someone had finally come to help, and they were about to enter the house to report, but Princess Rui waved his hand to stop him, and pushed the door straight into the house.
As soon as she entered the door, Princess Rui was startled by the mess all over the ground, and the rice paper full of words was thrown everywhere, Princess Rui picked up one casually and looked at it, and the dragon and phoenix danced and couldn't recognize what was written, but the full of resentment and anger were all vented through the back of the paper.
I'm really angry!
Princess Rui walked a few steps further, only to find that Zhao Chengjin was half-lying on the couch with a book on his face, and he didn't move when he heard movement in the room, maybe he was asleep. Princess Rui looked angry and funny, and whispered to the people to clean up the study, and she stepped forward and lifted the book from his face.
Zhao Chengjin was startled, opened his eyes in a daze, a little angry, and was about to have a seizure, suddenly saw who the person in front of him was, and all the anger was immediately suppressed, lowered the corners of his eyes, and bowed his head to Princess Rui a little unnaturally, and whispered: "Mother, is it you?" How did you get here? β
Princess Rui glared at him angrily and said, "I won't come again, I don't know that our prince is still playing the trick of the little girl, he doesn't go out of the door, he doesn't eat, who is this for?" People don't know that you don't think about tea and dinner here. She had already inquired with the guards around Zhao Chengjin about what was going on, although those guards resolutely refused to confide in half a point, but Princess Rui was not stupid, and when she asked someone, she knew that Zhao Chengjin rushed back from the Meng family that day. Except for the little girl of the Meng family, who has the ability to make him angry like this?
Zhao Chengjin's face was extremely ugly, but his mouth was still hard, and he said forcefully: "Mother, don't talk nonsense, I'm fine, I'm practicing calligraphy at home." β
"I'm practicing calligraphy, I'm doing a good job." Princess Rui then picked up the scroll on the desk, "Who can't you get along with this murderous person?" β
Zhao Chengjin lowered his head and did not speak, his face became more and more pale. Princess Rui looked a little distressed, stepped forward to straighten his clothes, and said softly: "Is there anything that can't be explained clearly, what are you angry with yourself?" You are angry with yourself like this, and Xiaoxue doesn't know anything about it. If you are really a smart person, even if you pretend, you have to pretend in front of other girls, and you can make people feel distressed and distressed, don't you say? β
Zhao Chengjin's face turned red suddenly, although he deliberately let Princess Rui see his thoughts when he led Xu You back to the palace last time, but at this time, Princess Rui really said it so directly, and he was a little embarrassed.
It's just that I was really aggrieved and sad at this time, and Zhao Chengjin didn't have the heart to joke with Princess Rui, lowered his head, and said helplessly and heavily: "It's all my own shaving of my head and the burden is hot, and I am just amorous." She doesn't have me in her heart at all. β
Princess Rui pretended to be surprised, her eyes widened, and she looked at Zhao Cheng up and down, shook her head and said, "No, our brother Shun'er's bearing and appearance, how many young men in the whole capital can compare?" Which little girl doesn't blush and heartbeat when she sees it, I don't think Xiaoxue is very good with you? If it really doesn't mean anything to you, people always accompany you everywhere? Didn't you make it clear to others? β
Zhao Chengjin's eyes were red, he had been independent for so many years, no matter what happened, he was used to carrying it alone, and even when he returned to the capital, he was used to dealing with all kinds of problems by himself, but he really had no experience in this emotional problem, and he paid a lot wholeheartedly, and finally ended up with such a result, which was really aggrieved and sad.
"What else does she not know?" Zhao Cheng said angrily: "She actually told me that I walked too often to the Meng family, which made the family misunderstand." What is the misunderstanding? Who is she afraid of misunderstanding? Who in the Meng family doesn't know my mind? We have known each other for so many years, and I dare to love me, and in her heart, she can't even compare to Hu Pengcheng, that idiot. As soon as he mentioned this, he was angry, and he couldn't wait to fight with Hu Pengcheng's kid, but more than that, he was not convinced, no matter what it was, what was he inferior to Hu Pengcheng?
The guards and the subordinates around Princess Rui had already been dismissed, so Zhao Chengjin was so unscrupulous when he spoke, and the more he talked, the more his true feelings were revealed, so that his eyes were almost red, as if he was about to cry at any time. Princess Rui felt uncomfortable in her heart, so she tried to persuade again: "Then since people have others in their hearts, it is better to just do it." If you really want to talk about it, there are many good girls, and Ming'er's mother will take you out for a walk, according to the character of our brother Shun, I don't know how many girls want to marry you. β
Zhao Chengjin immediately exploded, his eyes were full of horror, "I'm not going!" β
"Why don't you go?" Princess Rui looked at him and smiled, her smile was very meaningful. It was rare for her to see her son look so naΓ―ve and excited, and she just thought it was very cute.
Zhao Chengjin gritted his teeth and stopped talking.
"Okay," Princess Rui didn't force him, and said slowly, "Let's not go anywhere else, let's go to your grandfather's house, right?" Are you really going to hide at home and not go out? Otherwise, go directly to Meng's house and make it clear to the girl that it is a matter of death or life. Manly man, why are you timid at this time. β
Zhao Chengjin beat the drum in his heart, he wanted to go to the Meng family, but he was very afraid. Although he and Xiaoxue have quarreled now, they will not become enemies, and after meeting and saying a few good words, Xiaoxue is still the same as before, but if he really makes his words clear, there will be no room for retreat......
"That's still ...... Let's go see my grandfather......."
Princess Rui nodded his forehead with hatred of iron and steel, and scolded angrily: "Look at your corn-like guts!" β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Zhao Chengjin didn't come to the door for half a month, and even the second aunt couldn't help but start asking quietly, "...... The prince has been coming home recently, are you busy? β
Mrs. Meng didn't hide it from her, shook her head and said, "I quarreled with Xiaoxue, I'm angry." β
The second aunt's eyes suddenly widened in shock, "Xiaoxue's temper is too strong, what a good temperament the prince has." β
Old Madam Meng sighed and didn't speak. Xu You puffed out his face and was silent.
She was a little hesitant, she didn't know if she should go to the palace to find Zhao Chengjin to say sorry, think about it carefully, what she said that day seemed to be really a bit excessive, although she didn't mean to alienate him, but Zhao Chengjin was afraid to be angry. Xu You had never seen Zhao Chengjin so angry.
Or, when Ah Chu comes back from vacation, she will go to Zhao Cheng to apologize? With Ah Chu by his side, Zhao Chengjin may not pull down his face and get angry with her. Anyway, it's only a few days before Ah Chu comes back.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
In the Kangguo Mansion, Zhao Chengjin has been with the old grandfather for several days, and Princess Rui is also rare to be able to live in her mother's house for a few days, and she is very comfortable, but it would be better if some people were not so ignorant of words and feelings.
Beat from Princess Rui's mother and son back to the Guogong Mansion, the low-key and deserted Kang Guogong Mansion suddenly became lively, Kang Guogong has six sons under his knees, more than a dozen grandchildren and grandchildren, there are always all kinds of relatives and then various excuses to visit the house, to the house, a few words of greetings to the topic of Princess Rui's mother and son, and then down, it is Zhao Chengjin's marriage.
The Duchess only didn't understand, and Princess Rui was also "the prince is the master of the marriage", and she blocked the mouth of the person who came with a word, but she was still a little indomitable, and she even personally led her daughter and niece to visit. Among them, there is the daughter of the Li family who was politely rejected by Princess Rui.
The eldest lady Liu was afraid that Princess Rui would misunderstand, so she secretly pulled her with an embarrassed face and explained in a low voice, "...... I really refused, and the eldest lady of the Li family also responded, who knows...... They'll come again. She didn't understand, this Li family is also one of the best families in the capital, and the eldest girl is not bad, how many people can't ask for a kiss, why do they have to hang themselves on a tree. The first time was enough, but she clearly refused, and actually led the girl to the door in person, which was a bit too difficult.
However, Mrs. Li's face was as usual, and she didn't even ask about Zhao Chengjin at all, let alone say anything about family affairs, which made Liu can't help but wonder if she was thinking too much, maybe people came to the house today just for coincidence, not for Brother Shun at all?
Princess Rui finally met the eldest lady of the Li family, in all fairness, whether it is her bearing or appearance, she can't find a trace of fault in her words and deeds, if it weren't for her family background is too prominent, Zhao Chengjin and her heart belongs, Princess Rui may really fall in love with her.
Mrs. Li didn't stay in the Guogong Mansion for long, and after talking for a while, she got up to leave, and the Liu family politely said goodbye, but Mrs. Li shook her head, "Originally, I was just passing by, so I came in to visit Mrs. Guogong, but now that I have seen it, it is time to go back to the house, and there are still a lot of things in the house." With that, he led the eldest lady of the Li family out of the door.
I didn't want to get out of the yard yet, but it suddenly started to rain in the dark sky, and the work became bigger and bigger in the blink of an eye, and it became a pouring rain in a blink of an eye.
"This is really a guest from God." Liu said with a smile, and while talking, he led the Li family's mother and daughter back.
The mother and daughter of the Li family were helpless, so they turned back again.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Today is the day when Ah Chu goes home, Xu You got up early and followed Second Uncle Meng to Xiangshan Academy to pick up people.
If Xu You and Zhao Chengjin hadn't quarreled, they would have almost never thought about letting Ah Chu come back with the carriage of King Rui's Mansion, where would they still need to pick them up, and they would have saved them from going to the car shop to hire a carriage. But since the two of them fell out, Zhao Chengjin hasn't been on the door of the Meng family for more than 20 days, not to mention Xu You, even Xue Dad and Second Uncle Meng are a little drumming in their hearts.
Xue Dad didn't think about going to Zhao Cheng to apologize, in the end, after all, it was Xu You who didn't listen to what he said that day, but Xu You desperately stopped him, and said: "This thing is not good for me, even if I really want to apologize, I should go, how can I let Daddy go to him." Brother Shun is a generation shorter than you. β
really asked her to come to Zhao Chengjin, but Xu You didn't know what to say when they met. Before, she didn't know Zhao Chengjin's thoughts, so she would speak and act so unscrupulously, but now, since she knew that Zhao Chengjin had feelings for her, how could she still be as casual as before.
She didn't even know what attitude to use to face him.
Zhao Chengjin, that is naturally an excellent person, but ...... She has always treated him as a younger brother, and suddenly it has developed into a relationship between men and women, is this jump a little too big, she suddenly can't accept it!
The carriage hired by the second uncle is a bit old, and I don't know what goods I have pulled before, there is always a smell of in the carriage that can't be dispersed, Xu You has been sitting in the car for a long time, and he feels that he has been infiltrated by the smell from head to toe, and even the pores are full of that disgusting smell.
They arrived early, Ah Chu hadn't come out yet, and many carriages gradually came from outside the academy, all of which stopped at the door in turn, and after a while, the old one stopped. Xu You's heart was beating hard, thinking about what he would do if he met Zhao Chengjin for a while? She should have grinned at him as if nothing had happened, and then ......
"Dad-" Ah Chu rushed out of the academy like a happy pony, and when he saw Second Uncle Meng at the door, he immediately rushed over with joy, and Xu You also greeted him happily, waving vigorously: "Ah Chu, I'm here!" β
"Sister Xiaoxue, you're here too!" Ah Chu jumped up and down in front of her, and just about to say something affectionate, he suddenly covered his nose, twisted his neck and flattened his mouth, and said with a disgusted face: "What does this smell like?" β
"The smell in the carriage," Xu You was also quite helpless, waved his sleeves and fanned, and said, "Let's go back quickly, take a shower and change clothes when we get home, this smell is quite unpleasant." β
Ah Chu blinked, a little embarrassed, "Brother Ping hasn't left yet." β
"The carriage that the palace came to pick up people must have arrived, are you afraid that he will not be picked up?" In fact, Xu You didn't want to meet Zhao Chengjin a little.
"Orβ" Ah Chu whispered, "Let Brother Ping come with us?" β
Xu You couldn't cry or laugh, "You let Brother Ping sit in this stinky carriage, even if we are willing, he will not be." "Even Ah Chu is so disgusted, Brother Ping was raised with fine clothes and jade food when he was a child, and he can stand this smell.
"That'...... Shall we take his car back? β
Xu You immediately understood what Ah Chu meant, his face collapsed, and he said in a deep voice: "If you want to take the carriage of the palace, go and take it, and my second uncle and I will drive this carriage back." With that, he ignored him, lifted the curtain and got into the car quickly, sat for a few seconds, and pinched his nose in disgust.
No matter how sluggish Ah Chu was, he realized that something was wrong, he didn't dare to ask Xu You, and quietly returned to Second Uncle Meng and whispered, "What's wrong with Sister Xiaoxue, so angry?" I just suggested that I go back in the carriage of the palace, and she immediately turned her face. β
"Quarreled!" Second Uncle Meng's afterglow suddenly caught a glimpse of the carriage of King Rui's Mansion driving to the gate of the academy, and his face suddenly became solemn, "Your sister quarreled with the prince." β
Ah Chu was suddenly shocked, "No! β
Then good friends will quarrel too!
Zhao Chengjin got out of the car and saw Second Uncle Meng, his cold face showed a trace of warmth, his eyes quickly swept around, he didn't see Xu You, and a thick disappointment suddenly swept over. He exhaled heavily, squeezed out a smile and walked in front of Ah Chu, and said softly, "Brother Ping hasn't come out yet?" β
Ah Chu was a little nervous, and stammered back, "He'...... The mountain chief talked to him...... A while...... Only...... It's coming......" As he spoke, he nervously looked in the direction of the carriage where Xu Yu was, Zhao Chengjin immediately noticed it, and his eyes involuntarily glanced in that direction, but he only saw a thick curtain.
The person was in the carriage, but he deliberately avoided it, obviously because he didn't want to see him. Zhao Chengjin only felt a tightness in his chest, and he couldn't even breathe.
