Chapter 120: I'm Getting Married
The next day, at breakfast.
Meng Yong's expression was as usual, with a smile in his eyebrows and eyes, he slowly peeled the egg for Zhao Chen and put the yolk into his bowl.
"Here, eat more." He brought the remaining egg white to her lips and whispered.
Zhao Chen only felt that his scalp was numb, and he swallowed the bun in his mouth stiffly, "I'm full, there's still something to doβ"
After that, get up and leave.
Walking quickly all the way to the front of the mansion, the cold hair on her body was still standing on end, and her mind was full of Meng Yong's smiling face.
After a moment, she closed her eyes and shook her head, then she collected her thoughts and instructed Yingchun: "Go to Zhulinxuan." β
Zhulinxuan is a rare single flowing water pavilion in Beijing, where you can enjoy the scenery and drink tea, and you can also taste wine and chat.
Passing through the front hall, one by one exquisite water pavilions, half of them are on the shore, half of them are supported in the water, and there are green bamboos and willows everywhere, separating each small pavilion from afar.
When Zhao Chen arrived, King Yu had already been sitting for a while.
"This place is chic, opened in the past two years?" He asked with a smile on his face.
Zhao Chen nodded, sat down and went straight to the point, and said in a low voice: "The third child sent someone to contact Xiaoyao Hou last night. β
King Yu raised his eyebrows, but he didn't think about it so quickly, and paused: "Xiaoyao Hou will not be won over so easily, not to mention hanging his appetite, he has to wait for the third child to act in person." β
Thinking of Meng Yong's full smile, Zhao Chen hesitated: "Meng Yong and Xiaoyaohou are involved, and it is likely that they will take the opportunity to pull them in the middle, and it should not be delayed for too long." β
"After the third child consciously wins over to Xiaoyaohou, he will definitely make a move against you, and we will have to guard against it from now on."
King Yu asked sideways: "Then Meng Yong is just a play, how can he be so deeply involved with the powerful?" β
Zhao Chen was also a little puzzled, "Last time about the Lin family, Xiaoyao Hou not only gave ten miles of Xinzhu to Meng Yong, but also obviously cared about his life and death, and I also asked people to check afterwards, butββ"
She couldn't help frowning her face and muttered, "That dead white bone spirit has cleaned up all the front and back of his body, and it is impossible to find out when he and Xiaoyaohou hooked up." β
King Yu patted her shoulder soothingly, and said softly: "It's okay, don't embarrass yourself." β
"Now whether it is open or secret, you and Xiaoyaohou are competitors, and no one can give up the military power." She narrowed her eyes slightly, "Meng Yong also won't sit and watch, you must remember to be careful." β
King Yu nodded, and was about to say something, but was stopped by Zhao Chen.
"You go first." She said softly.
King Yu looked at her eyes, did not hesitate, got up and strode away.
The silver armor is red and embroidered with black clouds, and the posture is as tall as a pine.
Zhao Chen looked back, drank the warm tea in the cup, and also limped in the other direction.
After a long time, there was no one around, and a slender figure slowly walked out of the bamboo forest not far away.
She was distracted, stepping into the water pavilion, her eyes fixed on one of the empty spaces where the cups were placed.
Another moment.
She sat there slowly with her eyes down on the railing, tilting her head to look at the scenery that she had been lucky enough to be taken in by the man before.
The bamboo and willows reflect each other, and the water is rippling, just like the eyebrows of the man.
As her thoughts drifted away, her fingers unconsciously touched the jade cup, but she withdrew it before she could reach it.
"Do you admire him or do you want to harm him?" Zhao Chen's faint voice suddenly sounded.
The woman got up in a panic and knocked over the jade cup, the tea bottom wet the hem of her skirt, and she looked like a thief who had been stolen.
Zhao Chen ignored it, sat down on the beauty's back, and pressed down the jade cup that was spinning on the table with one hand, and then raised his eyes to look at Xiang Yiyi, who was at a loss.
"The division of military power is imminent, and I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at him, trying to find out his mistakes and omissions so that he can be kicked out of the candidates." Zhao Chen's eyes were cold.
"Xiang Yiyi, your family is already talking about marriage for you, don't feel uncomfortable for yourself, and don't involve others."
She seemed extremely unkind, "Something similar to trespassing in the East Palace, this king doesn't want to have a second time, since you are willing to sacrifice yourself for your own family, then marry well!" β
Xiang Yiyi bowed with a pale face, and her voice was slightly hoarse: "Prince Wu, Yiyi has no other meaning, and it will not harm His Royal Highness the King of Chongqing, the matter of the East Palace is Yiyi's fault, I hope you will forgive me." β
"Yiyi only learned that he was here this time, and wanted to come and see, and take another look-"
She said another salute, "The clan has raised Yiyi for 16 years, and it is right to sacrifice yourself for the clan to do your best, please rest assured, Yiyi will know the etiquette and observe the etiquette, and will not involve His Royal Highness the King of Chongqing." β
"Yiyi is about to get married, I... I'm getting married. β
She smiled reluctantly, lowered her eyes and bowed deeply, and walked away with a messy step.
Zhao Chen looked at it with some amazement.
Zhulinxuan is the business of the Xiang family, and it is also managed by Xiang Yiyi secretly.
The reason why she asked King Yu to come here today was to take the opportunity to attract this girl and stop the signs of trouble.
After all, being entangled by a girl who is discussing her marriage and even dares to break into the East Palace is likely to cause trouble for King Yu.
But I didn't think about it-
"It's my villain's heart." Zhao Chen rubbed his eyebrows, turned his head to look at King Yu who walked out of the shadows, and sighed: "This is really a sensible and good girl." β
King Yu's astonishment had disappeared, his eyes were full of complexity, and he was silently looking at the vague slender figure.
After a long time, he lowered his eyes and said: "I have always regarded her as a junior, and I don't want her to be-" paused, "Since she doesn't want to marry, she still wants to marry, is it persecution in the clan?" β
"Yes, this family affair is estimated to be decided by those people in the Xiang family, how can she be willing?" Zhao Chen looked at him, but he also felt a little unbearable, "She should be afraid that she can't suppress her affection for you and cause a storm..."
"Besides, she's just a victim of the big clan, who would ask her what she wants?" She sighed softly.
King Yu's eyes couldn't help but flicker slightly, and he asked lightly: "Then, what is the character of the person she wants to marry?" How's that for talent? Can... But a good guy who can match her? β
Zhao Chen froze for a moment, and coughed strangely: "I don't know how many times that thing has been beaten by me, and it can't match up with its character and talent... At best, he's a powerful man. β
King Yu sank his face suddenly, and only after a moment did he say coldly: "How can such a person be worthy of her, Xiang Huaiyu is trying to push his daughter into the fire pit?" β
"A huge family, it depends on a weak woman to pave the way for her in-lawsβ" A little chill ran in his raised eyes.
Seeing that he seemed to have some plans, Zhao Chen hurriedly said, "Don't think about it. "You don't like this family business, then I want to find a way to make it yellow, don't worry, I haven't been in vain for all these years." β
Maybe I can bring back a sister-in-law for my own scourge...
King Yu's eyes relaxed, and he said softly: "If there is anything that can be used for me, you must say it." β
Zhao Chen nodded, signaling him to rest assured.
After King Yu walked away, she thought about it before calling Shuangxi and asked him to invite the one who wanted to marry Xiang Yiyi.
