Chapter Twenty-Six: The Contract

Hong Ling's heart was stagnant, Prime Minister's Mansion, if it was before, she would definitely be very happy to recall this place, where there were mothers and fathers who loved her. Seeing sad tears slowly flowing from Hongling's eyes, Chen Jinye raised his hand to wipe them away and asked, "Is it a painful memory?" Hong Ling came back to her senses in an instant, twisted her head and wiped her eyes, and said, "It's nothing, it's just that I'm suddenly homesick", Chen Jinye didn't talk again, let Hong Ling secretly digest the sadness, for a while, the servants outside were scattered, Hong Ling and Chen Jinye were still sitting like this, time seemed to have stopped between them, one person was faintly sad, one person was faintly guarding, it seemed to be a tacit understanding, a tacit understanding not to disturb each other.

Xiaoqing came in from outside the door, and slowly saluted, "His Royal Highness the Prince, Niangniang, it's time for breakfast", Chen Jinye nodded slightly, helped Hongling beside him up, and said, "Let's go together", Hongling glanced at him, and her cold heart seemed to be wrapped in the light projected by the rising sun. Touched by the inevitability of her heart, Hongling stared at Chen Jinye for a long time, slowly withdrew her hand, pursed her lips slightly, and said, "Let's go together."

Hongling held a bowl of porridge, the faint fragrance of rice seeped into her nose, the steaming heat swelled her eyes, and the soothing breath permeated between her eyebrows and eyes, so that her eyes, which were still sour, converged, and exhaled slightly, blowing away the heat, and her heart was full.

"My father and mother love me"

Chen Jinye paused his chopsticks and looked sideways at Hongling, as if he hadn't heard it.

"My father and mother love me very much" Hong Ling repeated with a smile, Chen Jinye put down the dishes and chopsticks, and turned slightly sideways to face Hong Ling, "Is it?" ”

"One day I was sick and fainted, my father was anxious to stay in front of my bed, but I was frightened, so I yelled at my father a few times, and now I think of my father's injured expression at that time, I am really ignorant", said, Hongling deflated her mouth, pulled a few dishes and chopsticks at will, and then said: "Later, my mother came back, my mother hugged me and coaxed me, I was very happy, and I also hugged my mother, and also hugged my father", after speaking, Hongling drank the porridge water in one go.

"How? Do you feel that my father and mother love me very much? Seeing that Hongling stood up, Chen Jinye looked at her with a strange light in her eyes, and asked rhetorically as if she was very arrogant, in this regard, Chen Jinye nodded undeniably.

"Indeed, you have many talents worthy of love"

"Talent?" Hongling wondered

Chen Jinye pouted slightly, "For example, you can make these people obey you in just a few days", Hong Ling smiled, "What's so difficult about this?" Chen Jinye raised his eyebrows slightly: "Isn't it difficult?" ”

"The way to treat people is just a word of sincerity, not only integrity, but more importantly, sincerity", as early as when I was still in kindergarten, my father was talking about these in my ear all day long, to treat others sincerely, I didn't expect that one day, I would actually tell Chen Jinye about these.

"Sincerely, huh? Do you have a heart for them? ”

Hongling lowered her head and thought for a moment, "No, it's just like that, the truth is always as long as you understand, but who can ensure the practice, isn't it?" ”

"Then you say, 'What's so hard about that?'"

Hongling frowned slightly, "To make others want to be good to you, as long as you are good to others first, most people will be convinced by this law, but this is just a kind of human nature, so it is not difficult, and if you want to be convinced by you wholeheartedly, you can't do it without a sincere word."

Hearing this, Chen Jinye grinned: "Ling'er is reminding this king to keep his promise?" ”

was in a good mood, but when Chen Jinye reminded her like this, Hong Ling thought about it, and simply withdrew from everyone and asked, "So does the prince still plan to continue to fulfill our agreement?" ”

Chen Jinye made up his mind, and I have to say that after an interview this morning, most of the doubts in his heart had already disappeared, and he "counted himself".

Hongling was in a good mood and tentatively proposed: "You said before that you didn't think about how to ask me for a corresponding benefit, so why don't you overturn the previous contract and rewrite a new one today?" ”

Chen Jinye felt quite funny in his heart, how about writing it down, and what if he didn't write it down? Could it be that a piece of paper can restrain her? "How do you want to write?"

"Emmm, what I want has never changed, but the freedom to go in and out of the house and not to have sex with you, mainly in you, what do you want me to do?"

Chen Jinye's hand tapped on the table, tilted his head to look at Hongling, and said: "On the wedding night, you seem to have said that you would give up the position of the princess to the woman I really like, I think, this is a good idea."

Hongling nodded, then frowned again: "That's it?" ”

"And help me deal with Luo Luoyu"

"Gone?"

"This king sees that you still have a little talent, and it's not good to waste it", Chen Jinye held his cheeks and looked at Hongling, looking very sorry for his talents, the corners of Hongling's mouth twitched, "Then how do you want not to waste my 'talent'?" ”

"Didn't think about it"

Hong Ling closed her eyes slightly, took a deep breath, then opened her eyes, pulled a big smile, tried to suppress the surging anger, and asked in a kind tone: "So you are teasing me, Lord Wang?" ”

The corners of Chen Jinye's mouth hooked slightly, and he pretended to frown, as if he was very embarrassed, hesitated for a moment, and said: "No, in addition, Ling'er promised me a few extra things every month, so that Ling'er's talent would not be wasted, and it could be regarded as a contract that was not biased."

After hearing this, Hongling galloped through countless grass and mud horses in her heart, but she still asked politely: "How many?" ”

Chen Jinye saw that her face was full of sincere smiles, but her hands were clenched tighter and tighter, maybe she didn't notice it herself, the feet at the bottom of the table were about to crush the shelf with her feet, so she pretended to be casual and leaned on the chair: "Three pieces", I saw Hongling seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, "It's so good, you wait for me here, I'll go find pen and ink", after speaking, he rushed out with a smoke, and after half a moment, he came in with a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and still carried the contract written on the night of the wedding banquet in his arms, saying that it was called Chen Jinye for reference, Indeed, he had forgotten that the covenant was written by his own hand that day.

Soon, a new contract was drawn up, Chen Jinye copied a copy and handed it to Hong Ling, saying: "You see how it is", Hong Ling roughly browsed, "Not bad, not bad", in fact, she had already seen it in detail behind his back, Chen Jinye snorted, "Then so be it", after that, he was going to fold one of them and put it up, "Eh, wait", Hong Ling hurriedly pressed down Chen Jinye's hand, and said: "It's not over yet", said and took out a box of rouge from the pile of papers on the side, and said: "We take this as a bet", As he spoke, he dipped his thumb on the position of his signature, signaling Chen Jinye to do the same, Chen Jinye was puzzled, but he still followed, Hongling showed her face and folded the contract carefully and stuffed it into her arms.

Chen Jinye was puzzled, so he asked, "I don't know what this means?" Hongling tilted her head and glanced at him, "It's just a mark", "A mark? I saw that Hongling was not as nervous as before and moved to the seat, swinging her legs, and said: "There are traces of you and me on this contract, no one will be able to forge it", Chen Jinye couldn't help frowning: "But there is already the handwriting of you and me here", Hongling patiently explained: "The handwriting can be imitated, but you and I fingerprints are indeed unique", Chen Jinye heard this, and quickly picked up the contract to observe, sure enough, but still felt very strange, and said: "You and I are indeed different, How do you know that other people are different from you and me? Hongling silently held her cheeks, looked at Chen Jinye, and thought to herself that these things are good for common sense, on the importance of nine-year compulsory education.

Then he said lightly: "I saw it in an ancient book before, and I thought it should be true, so I used it", "Which ancient book?" This king has never heard of it", "emmm, I read it in the Tianpu Palace before, the book is very broken, the title of the book is not clear, it may be a lonely book".

Hong Ling secretly sighed that she was witty, thinking that she could throw anything to the Tianpu Palace in the future, anyway, the Tianpu Palace was a place that Xiaoqing had never been, so in this case, there was no need to bother to explain.

Finally sent away the 'curious baby' Chen Jinye, Hongling lay on the table with relief, smelling the incense of the tower tree while admiring the loot in her hand, I have to say that she is really a negotiation genius.
