Chapter Eighty-Five: Don't Talk About Feelings in Business

Embarrassed! Extremely embarrassing!

Li Jie never expected that his fiancée would be so bold, she came to see him without saying a word, and she hid outside to eavesdrop, the key was to eavesdrop on what he and Zhu Yunxi were joking, and now he couldn't explain it if he wanted to.

"Ahem! See the princess on the Li Festival! In the end, Li Jie still saluted the girl with a cold expression in front of him, although the two were already considered husband and wife, but there was a difference between the top and bottom, and he still had to salute when he saw each other.

In addition, it is said that on the day of the princess and the concubine's cave room, after the husband and wife drank the wine, the concubine would also give the princess a courtesy of respect, and then a husband and wife ceremony, even on the day of the cave room, let alone usually.

In the face of Li Jie's salute, Zhu Yuning still didn't speak, but just let Li Jie bend over and stand there, which made the scene even more embarrassing for a while, and Zhu Yunxi next to him had some sympathy for Li Jie.

As time went by, Li Jie also became a little annoyed, although he was wrong when he joked about Zhu Yuning just now, but he had already made a gesture of apology, but the other party put on a look of being unforgiving, which was a little too cautious.

Thinking of this, Li Jie also simply stood up straight, he was half a head taller than Zhu Yuning, and he also looked down at the other party at this time, he was not married yet, if he lost his momentum at this time, would he still be able to hold his head up in marriage in the future?

However, what Li Jie never expected was that just after he raised his head, Zhu Yuning on the opposite side suddenly smiled brightly and said: "You are really bold, no wonder the imperial grandfather values you so much!" ”

Li Jie was stunned, daring to love his fiancée was testing himself.

"Sister, aren't you angry?" Zhu Yunxi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief at this time.

"Little brother, you go out first, I have something to talk to Li Jie alone!" Zhu Yuning instructed Zhu Yunxi.

"This ......" Zhu Yunxi showed a hesitant expression when he heard this, although he was young, he also felt that it was a little inappropriate for his sister and Li Jie to be alone in a room, but thinking that they were already engaged, and he also understood the personalities of his sister and Li Jie, so he finally nodded, turned around and went out of the door, and personally guarded the door.

"Why did the princess suddenly come to see me, aren't you afraid that Your Majesty will blame you?" Li Jie frowned and immediately asked, Zhu Yuanzhang attaches great importance to etiquette, he and Zhu Yuning are only engaged, and they should not meet before they get married.

"If it weren't for the nod of the emperor's grandfather, I wouldn't dare to come to see you." Zhu Yuning also smiled slightly at this time, and a pair of wonderful eyes were also looking at Li Jie seriously, although she had heard Zhu Yunxi mention Li Jie countless times, and had seen Li Jie's detailed information, but it was the first time she had seen him in person.

Before Zhu Yuning came to see Li Jie, she had also fantasized about his appearance, but now that she saw it, she found that Li Jie was more handsome than she imagined, but her figure was a little thin, and she definitely couldn't kill the enemy on the battlefield like her grandfather, with a pair of bright eyes, and at this time she was also looking at herself unscrupulously, which made Zhu Yuning feel a little shy, but she still straightened up and looked at Li Jie.

Li Jie is also the first time to see his fiancée, he is relatively tall in this era, but Zhu Yuning is only half a head lower than him, he is a very tall figure among women, and his appearance is exquisite, it can be said that he can't find fault with his appearance, but for him and Zhu Yuning, appearance is the least important.

"Why are you marrying me?" After a long while, Zhu Yuning took the initiative to speak.

"The princess misunderstood, it's not that I want to marry you, but Your Majesty gives you and me to marry, and I don't have a choice." Li Jie didn't tell the truth.

"Really?" Zhu Yuning raised his eyebrows, "As far as I know, you asked the imperial grandfather for Princess Shang before, but the imperial grandfather refused, and then you found an opportunity to give me the glass mirror, and repeatedly took great pains to make great contributions, but the imperial grandfather suddenly gave you and me a marriage, do you dare to say that you didn't know anything before the marriage?" ”

Zhu Yuning's question was very sharp, she had long doubted Li Jie's purpose of marrying her, and she had read Li Jie's detailed information, so this question was also asked to the key point at once.

Li Jie didn't expect Zhu Yuning to be so clear about his situation, and even knew about his previous failure to ask Princess Shang, which made him feel a little embarrassed, to put it mildly, he wanted to marry Zhu Yuning's aunt before, but after the failure, he turned his target to her, it can be said that Li Jie married her completely for utilitarian purposes.

"Do you have to know that?" Li Jie was silent for a long time, and then he sighed and said in a low voice.

"Since we are destined to be husband and wife, I also want to know more about you, so I hope you don't hide anything from me!" Zhu Yuning stared at Li Jie with torch eyes and said again.

Li Jie also smiled bitterly when he heard this, and after hesitating again for a moment, he finally raised his head and stared at Zhu Yuning's eyes and replied, "If I say that I married you to save my life, do you believe it?" ”

"Survival?" Zhu Yuning showed a puzzled look when he heard this, "You are the grandson of Han Gong, and you are talented, you have made great contributions repeatedly, the imperial grandfather and father attach great importance to you, I really don't see what you need to save your life?" ”

When he said this, Zhu Yuning seemed to think of something again, and immediately smiled and said again: "You don't want to tell me what terminal illness you have, and you have to marry a princess to be happy to live, right?" ”

"Almost!" What Zhu Yuning never expected was that Li Jie nodded after hearing her joking, which made her stunned at first, and then angry, she was also a princess anyway, and she was really used as a tool for joy by Li Jie?

"Don't get me wrong, I don't have any diseases in my body, but for some reason, I conclude that our Li family has come to a catastrophe, and if I and my parents and sister want to live, the only way is to marry a royal woman!" Li Jie stared at Zhu Yuning with a solemn expression and said again.

He didn't explain in detail the reasons for the Li family's catastrophe, firstly, some things were inconvenient to say, and secondly, even if Zhu Yuning knew, he would not be able to solve the problem, so it was better not to say it, according to the original history, it was estimated that in another month or two, Zhu Yuning would understand the meaning of his words.

Zhu Yuning also kept staring at Li Jie's expression change, and after a long time, he slowly spoke: "Although I don't understand why you said that the Li family is in trouble, I believe that you are not lying, and I want to ask another question, does Grandpa Huang know these thoughts of yours?" ”

"Your Majesty has long seen through my purpose!" Li Jie nodded again, now he is more and more satisfied with Zhu Yuning, because the other party is a smart woman, and living with such a woman is at least much easier to communicate.

"Sure enough!" Although Zhu Yuning had already judged, it was the first time he got a positive answer.

"Well, I don't have any problem with this marriage, but since you used my identity to save your life, do you want to do something for me?" Zhu Yuning was silent for a moment, and suddenly turned his head to Li Jie again.

"What do you want me to do?" Li Jie was stunned, he didn't expect Zhu Yuning to accept this marriage so calmly, and took the initiative to ask for it, which made him feel uncomfortable, as if the two were not talking about marriage.

"I want you to support Yunxi with all your might!" Zhu Yuning said very directly.

"You ......" Li Jie was also taken aback when he heard this, although he did have some other thoughts about Zhu Yunxi, but he didn't expect Zhu Yuning to say it so nakedly.

"Don't get me wrong!" Unexpectedly, Zhu Yuning raised his eyebrows again and said, "I'm not an ambitious woman, the so-called support actually wants you to help Yunxi do what he wants, if he only wants to be stable, then you will keep him safe and happy for the rest of his life, if he really has any other ideas, you just need to have a clear conscience!" ”

Zhu Yuning's conditions are actually very relaxed, she doesn't really let Zhu Yunxi fight with Zhu Yunxi for anything, everything depends on his own wishes, and even if Zhu Yunxi really wants to fight, if he can't support the wall, Zhu Yuning will also not let Li Jiezhu be abused.

"Good! I promise! Li Jie nodded immediately, he was not very satisfied with Zhu Yunxi, if Zhu Yunxi really wanted to fight for it in the future, he would definitely do his best to help him.

"High five!" Zhu Yuning saw that Li Jie agreed, and immediately showed a smile, and stretched out his right hand like jade.

Li Jie looked at Zhu Yuning's white palm but fell into deep thought, and the discomfort in his heart became even stronger, and after a while, he smiled bitterly: "We are obviously talking about marriage, why do we seem to be making a deal?" ”

"Isn't marriage just a transaction?" Zhu Yuning asked rhetorically with a natural expression, in her opinion, the marriage of a royal woman is a transaction, and both parties take what they need.

"Even if it's a deal, I ...... I also hope that you really like me as a person, and then marry me willingly! Li Jie's face turned red as he spoke.

Well, this time it was Li Jie who was greedy, originally he had always regarded this marriage as a transaction, but when he really saw Zhu Yuning, the other party was more thorough than him, and he talked about the transaction very rationally throughout the whole process, which aroused Li Jie's discomfort, so he wanted to add some more feelings to the transaction.

"A good marriage, why talk about those messy things?" Zhu Yuning was even more puzzled, the marriage in this era was originally the order of her parents and the words of the matchmaker, plus she grew up in the deep palace since she was a child, and her understanding of marriage is also more simple, although she has also fantasized about her wishful husband, but when facing reality, she never thinks about these.

Li Jie finally realized the generation gap with the ancients, but he still blushed and insisted: "I don't care how you understand marriage, anyway, I won't let our marriage become a naked transaction, before we get married, I will definitely make you like me!" ”

"Then if I still don't like you before I get married, won't you get married?" Zhu Yuning asked with a smile when he heard this.

"Huh? That's not it, we can continue to cultivate relationships after marriage! Li Jie brazenly said again, anyway, no matter what, he will marry Zhu Yuning's wife!
