Chapter 264: Yue Guo's Temptation

Chen Jing and Jiang Ruofu made an appointment to meet at the Water Pavilion, Jiang Ruofu arrived half an hour early, but he didn't expect Chen Jing to have already arrived.

He was playing chess against himself.

The river breeze covers his face, the gentle but rippling young man's face is moist, like a clear blue wave, the long wind moves the vines, and the small flowers on the vines are blown, gentle and calm, just like the young man who plays quietly with himself in the pavilion.

It cannot be denied that Chen Jing does have the capital to be admired in the circle of noble girls.

And he has a gentle and considerate temperament, but I am afraid that he is the wishful man in the hearts of many people.

Jiang Ruofu climbed the steps, Chen Jing easily noticed her existence, and the smile on her face never stopped since she appeared.

"Jover."

Jiang Ruofu put away the umbrella for the shade, sat opposite Chen Jing, and broke the stalemate with the sunspot.

"I want to thank the Prime Minister and Mrs. for not abandoning me, and at this time, I am willing to tell you that I am your fiancée."

Chen Jing said warmly,

"My mother said that people can't be treacherous, and my father's temperament, I think you know better, my father has always been upright, he liked you very much at the beginning, and he paid more attention to your character than your appearance and family background."

Jiang Ruofu raised her head, and Chen Jing smiled at her gently, her eyes were full of gentleness.

Jiang Ruofu's veil was suddenly blown off by the wind, and her face was suddenly exposed in front of Chen Jing.

Chen Jing hurriedly turned his face sideways and didn't look at her, for fear of making Jiang Ruofu feel uncomfortable.

Xiao Yu hurriedly chased the veil.

Jiang Ruofu got up, walked in front of Chen Jing, and slowly squatted down, his voice soft,

"Ah Jing, look at me."

Chen Jing didn't move.

Jiang Ruofu raised his head and said seriously,

"Is it because you hate me the way I am?"

Chen Jing hurriedly turned his head,

"Nope."

But he was directly in line with Jiang Ruofu's gaze, and he also saw Jiang Ruofu's face.

There was no longer the terrible blood stain on the face that it had at the beginning, but instead there was a brown scar, from the bottom of the eye to the side of the cheek, a slanted knife, I thought it was accidentally scratched by the color ink.

It's just that although it's no longer terrifying, it's still abrupt, especially on such snow-white skin.

Chen Jing's gaze became extremely distressed.

Jiang Ruofu said softly

"If I marry you in the future, you will have to face this face day and night, I only hope that you can see it now, and you can not regret it, if you regret it, you can cancel the marriage contract at any time."

Chen Jing hurriedly said,

"No, I don't regret it."

Chen Jing helped her up, his eyes burning,

"I'm not afraid of your scar, as long as you and I are together, all this will not make me regret it, I am very happy to marry you, really."

He looked excited.

Jiang Ruofu chuckled in the wind,

"I believe in you."

Those thin eyes were watery, like affectionate veins.

Chen Jing laughed, and the two dimples were shallowly recessed,

"Let's go to the Flower God Shrine tomorrow to worship, the master told you and me my fortune, we went to make a vow this time, presumably God can also see your sincerity and mine, and will bless our marriage."

The breeze of the water pavilion is slight, the falling flowers are swaying in the wind, the green ridge rises and falls, and the egrets wander in pairs in the breeze, like a light ink painting.

——

The summer breeze was gusting under the trees, and there were many noble ladies fanning the wind.

There were princely relatives here, not only unmarried men and women, but also nobles of the older generation at the table.

I also ate half a bowl of ice cheese, only to see that the prime minister's wife was late.

One is to laugh,

"I want to see people today, I'm late for grooming, and I'm not considerate, I hope you will bear with me."

Stretch out your hand and don't hit people with smiling faces, not to mention that Hu's reputation among everyone is really good.

The Countess fanned her fan,

"What's not thoughtful, I see that your brother is very thoughtful, and he can take care of the guests on his own."

made such a joke, everyone around laughed,

"That's it, you can start a family."

Chen Jing was ridiculed by everyone so that his ears were red,

"The elders have praised it."

Hu Shi also smiled,

"Speaking of which, there is one more person I would like to introduce to you today."

Hu's gaze crossed over many people, looked at Jiang Ruofu, and beckoned gently,

"Joff, come here."

Jiang Ruofu got up.

Everyone looked at her, there were many people who knew about her rumors today, and the disfigurement of Jiang Ruofu was almost all over the place.

Originally, I thought it was the concubine of the inner historian who climbed high, relying on the empty glove white wolf of the first beauty.

Now that she is disfigured, the Chen family has not ruined the marriage contract.

The Chen family is really righteous, and they can't complain about these days, and they have praised the righteousness of the prime minister's family among the people and nobles, which has made the prime minister's family earn a lot of reputation.

Jiang Ruofu walked up to Hu Shi step by step, and Hu Shi grabbed her shoulder,

"Good boy."

Hu Shi looked at everyone,

"This is the second daughter of the Jiang family, born in a famous family, and her temperament is also in line with the temper of my father-in-law, she is a good boy, Chen Jing has also reached the age, and the two families have changed Geng Ti, in the future, this is my daughter-in-law."

Although everyone has many things in their hearts, they are all congratulating, flattering or appreciating the Chen family's righteous deeds on the surface.

"Look at this girl's eyes, she is really good-looking."

"The girl raised by the Queen Mother's side is really extraordinary in appearance and dignified."

Mrs. Hou said that Jiang Ruofu was a girl raised by the Queen Mother's side, and she deliberately put gold on Jiang Ruofu's face.

Mrs. Hou and the Hu family have always had a good relationship, and at this time, they also sold her a favor.

And the people did say,

"The county lord does have a bit of the queen mother's style, look at this dignified demeanor of the light breeze, it is rare for a girl of this age to have it."

"I heard that at the Gu family's flower banquet before, he also won the literary champion in poetry, and he is really a child with both talent and learning."

"It's a natural pair with Chen Gongzi."

"Look at these two children, they are a great match."

Chen Jing's ears became redder and redder when he heard this, and he looked at Jiang Ruofu, with a shy and gentle smile in his eyes, but he was frank and undisguised.

But a different voice came from behind the crowd,

"I heard that Chen Gongzi's fiancée was born with unparalleled beauty, since she is meeting with everyone today, why is she still wearing a veil?"

Song Luozhen walked in front of the people, followed by the palace people who played umbrellas and fans.

The crowd got up,

"Her Royal Highness the Tenth Princess, Jin An."

Song Luozhen didn't say flat, but took two steps forward,

"How can the county lord of Fuxi hide it, could it be that he has a yin owl in his heart and doesn't dare to see people?"

Jiang Ruofu was half-squatting, maintaining the movement of saluting,

"The courtiers don't dare, but they feel the wind and cold occasionally, and they are afraid that they will be sick to you."

The people at the table secretly slandered,

These two are talking nonsense.

Obviously, the tenth princess has already lifted the veil of Fuxi, knowing that Fuxi is disfigured, and she is still asking such a fake question.

Fu Xi maintained decency and never mentioned disfigurement.

Both of them are talking nonsense.

Song Luozhen raised his hand to unveil Jiang Ruofu's veil,

"What's there to scrupul about this, it's hot and dry now, and the heat has already evaporated the sickness—"

It's just that before her hand touched Jiang Ruofu's veil, Jiang Ruofu raised her hand to untie her veil.

Everyone raised their eyes to peek, and Chen Jing hurriedly wanted to cover her, but she was stunned the moment she saw Jiang Ruofu's face.

Song Luozhen's hand stopped in mid-air, looked at Jiang Ruofu's face in disbelief, and muttered,

"How so?"

And at this moment, Jiang Ruofu in front of her did not have the slightest scar on her face, her snow skin was smooth, and her appearance was beautiful and refined.

The summer wind blows people's hearts indiscriminately.

Everyone also saw the lower half of Jiang Ruofu's face.

Smooth and flat, delicate and fair skin, cherry lips and snow skin, long hair rises in the wind.

Didn't you say that Jiang Ruofu was disfigured?

What's going on?

There is no sign of disfigurement on this face.

Song Luozhen frowned, and stopped talking

"You..."

Jiang Ruofu lowered her eyes, she couldn't see the emotions in her eyes clearly, she only listened to her voice, but she was calm and respectful,

"Thank you for your concern, Your Royal Highness the Princess, since Her Royal Highness the Princess has given the order, the courtiers will naturally obey everything."

Everyone present stared at Jiang Ruofu's face.

It's still that face, many people have seen it.

But the surprise and surprise it brought were the worst this time.

Could it be that the day was a false rumor?

Jiang Ruofu was not disfigured at all?

Song Luozhen was in front of everyone, and she couldn't do anything to Jiang Ruofuduo, just looking at her outstanding face, the nameless fire in her heart grew.

Seeing that Song Luozhen's expression was not quite right, Chen Jing hurriedly blocked in front of Jiang Ruofu and arched his hand,

"Her Royal Highness the princess can come to participate in the summer banquet of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Prime Minister's Mansion is full of splendor, if the princess is willing, please also allow the Prime Minister's Mansion to arrange a seat for the princess, and the princess will stay for a while."

Chen Jing blocked Jiang Ruofu and separated Jiang Ruofu from Song Luozhen.

The subordinates immediately arranged the seats, and Chen Jing stretched out his hand and led Song Luozhen to sit down.

"Princess, please."

Song Luozhen was still staring straight in Jiang Ruofu's direction, and everyone was worried and waited for a moment before seeing Song Luozhen sit down according to his words.

Everyone finally relaxed.

Chen Jing quietly held Jiang Ruofu's hand, and Jiang Ruofu subconsciously wanted to retract his hand.

And Chen Jing looked back and gave her a soothing smile, and Jiang Ruofu's action to retract his hand stopped.

She froze for a moment, then smiled at Chen Jing.

Everyone sat down, although many people looked in the direction of Jiang Ruofu, but in the end, they were safe, and everyone gradually relaxed their minds and chatted.

"I heard that Yue Guo has been making a lot of trouble at the border in recent days, and it is already a trivial matter to rob the house, but I am afraid that this is just a temptation, and Yue Guo will make a big move next."

"What a mad man, ten years ago, Yue Guo's soldiers were strong and strong, forcing Jokhang to move the capital, and it has only stopped for many years."

"Back then, it was Lord Taiwei who raised troops to suppress it, but now Lord Taiwei is no longer in his prime, and his temples are gray, how can he let adults run around on the battlefield to fight for his life? The Queen Mother also said that now that the prosperous world is peaceful, Lord Taiwei should enjoy his old age in peace. ”

"It's just that the triennial Hajj is coming, shouldn't Yue Guo take advantage of this moment to enter Jokhang under the pretext of Hajj and relatives, and take the opportunity to make trouble?"

"How does this work?"

"I heard that His Royal Highness King Chen is now living in the palace, and he is preparing for the Hajj to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

"It seems that the Queen Mother is going to slowly unload the burden to the son."

"It's just... Which prince did Yue Guo come to make pilgrimage and kiss? ”
