Chapter 216: Refusal
Don't say that Concubine Jing was surprised, and even Jin Zhao himself felt incredible.
She has obviously deliberately kept a distance from Yu Wenyu, and normal people can see that a smart person like him will not be unclear.
In that case, why did he ask the Holy God for a decree to grant marriage, so that he was not afraid of being denied marriage? When the time comes, will you lose face?
It's just that, after thinking about it, Jin Zhao felt that his idea seemed to be wrong. Who in the world today dares to disobey the will of the king and disrespect the will? Perhaps, Yu Wenyu calculated this point correctly, so he went so confidently to ask the saint for marriage.
In the final analysis, she still underestimated Yu Wenyu.
Jin Zhao pulled back his thoughts and said to Concubine Jing: "Don't hide it from Niangniang, this move of the three princes really surprised Jin Zhao. In fact, in private, I don't have much friendship with the third prince. ”
Usually respects Yu Wenyu and avoids it, how can he have any deeper friendship with that person, Jin Zhao is also telling the truth.
Concubine Jing listened, but she looked unconvinced.
She asked rhetorically: "If it is a faint acquaintance, how can you agree to the three princes to enter the palace to take care of the food in the palace, the dignified daughter, in and out of the kitchen every day, to do these things that only the next people do, if it is not for the sake of the three princes, is it against the palace?" How do you explain this? ”
“………”
Jin Zhao choked up for a while, she really didn't have a good reason to answer Concubine Jing's question. Half of the reason why she agreed to Yu Wenyu was because of Concubine Jing, after all, Concubine Jing was still good to her at the beginning, and she was not a person who did not know how to be grateful. But she couldn't tell Concubine Jing these things directly, after all, where did the current Concubine Jing know about her previous life.
Seeing that Jin Zhao was silent, Concubine Jing confirmed the conjecture in her heart even more, and said with a smile: "There are no outsiders here, you like the third prince, don't feel embarrassed."
While speaking, Ding Lan, the palace maid on the side, couldn't help but purse her lips and smile.
Jin Zhao suddenly blushed, Concubine Jing's determined attitude made her unable to justify, in desperation, her eyes suddenly lit up, as if she thought of something, and said: "Niang Niang said that she laughed, Jin Zhao looks like this now, others can't avoid it when they see it, as for the third prince, Jin Zhao is still self-aware, how can he have any thoughts about him, it's just because of the holy decree."
Concubine Jing thought that she felt that she was not worthy of the third prince because of her appearance, and she had a slight inferiority complex, and her heart was touched for a while, so she comforted and said: "The third prince is not a superficial person who values appearance, otherwise he would not have asked for marriage at this time." He grew up watching Bengong since he was a child, what kind of person he is, Bengong knows best in his heart, if he is just a person who cares about the appearance of the other party, there will be no talk of marriage between you and him. Your marriage to the third prince is the will of the Holy One himself, and this cannot be changed, so you don't have to worry about it. As for Yu'er, Hongu believes that he will be a person worthy of being entrusted with his life. ”
"This palace called you here today to ask you what you want, and secondly, to tell you not to think too much."
Looking at Concubine Jing in front of her, Jin Zhao was very emotional, she didn't know how to explain this matter to Concubine Jing, even if she told her the truth, the other party might not be able to understand, maybe the more she explained, the more complicated things became.
Jin Zhao thought about it for a while, and said: "Jin Zhao's appearance was ruined, but it is a fact, it is rare that the third prince does not dislike it, and he also takes the initiative to ask for marriage, which is Jin Zhao's blessing."
Thinking about it, it is a great blessing for such an ugly person as her to be fortunate to marry the prince, in the eyes of outsiders, if she has any ideas, she is a little uninteresting.
Jin Zhao thought to himself, he hadn't reached the point where he didn't know what to do.
Concubine Jing listened to what she said, nodded, and said: "Yu'er, this kid, usually doesn't talk much, and looks like he doesn't smile, but he is not an indifferent and ruthless person, and your feelings for Yu'er are not so deep at the moment, but in the future, if you get along with him for a long time, you will slowly get to know him as a person."
Concubine Jing is true at this point, if you want to understand a person, it is far from enough to just look at the superficial impression, only by getting along can you have a further understanding.
Jin Zhao responded: "What Niangniang said, Jin Zhao understands it, and he will get along well with the third prince in the future."
Hearing this, Concubine Jing showed a gentle smile on her face, and her eyes were a little softer when she looked at Jin Zhao.
"If you think so, this palace will be relieved. You are delicate and understanding, and you have entrusted the three princes to your care, I believe that you will not disappoint this palace. ”
These words are undoubtedly an affirmation of her.
Jin Zhao didn't know why she wanted to say this to Concubine Jing, obviously what she wanted to say was not like this, obviously her original intention was not to marry Yu Wenyu, if it wasn't for Fu Ye, if it wasn't for her mother's idea of matching her and Fu Ye, she wouldn't have agreed to this family business, and now that the holy decree has been issued, her marriage to Yu Wenyu is a sure thing, and it cannot be changed. She knew this very well.
Leaving from Wuxi Palace, Jin Zhao was about to return home with Qiao Ci, Qiao Ci suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Isn't the eldest lady going to Yunxiang Hall to see the princess?"
Jin Zhao looked at the time, waved his hand and said, "No, it's not too early, next time."
After a long delay at Concubine Jing's place, if she went to Yunxiang Hall again, the princess would definitely pull her to speak, but it would not be over in a while.
And if it is delayed any longer, when the palace gate is closed, she will not be able to leave the palace. And with her appearance, it is really inconvenient to stay in the palace, in case she shows any flaws and is seen by others, wouldn't it be very good.
What's more, it is really not appropriate for her to come to the palace often at the moment. She is nominally the princess, but she has not married Yu Wenyu yet, so it is inevitable that she will be tongue-in-cheek.
Thinking like this, she saw Zixiang walking towards her from a distance.
Jin Zhao and Qiao Ci exchanged glances, and Qiao Ci greeted him with a comprehension.
"Miss Zixiang, what are you doing here? I wanted to talk to you at Niangniang's place, but unfortunately you left. Qiao Ci said.
Zixiang explained slightly apologetically: "I'm really sorry, my mother explained the errand......"
Qiaoci had an idea, and asked in a loud voice: "In the final analysis, it is because of Miss Zixiang's ability, otherwise Niang Niang will not hand over the errand to you."
Zixiang said disapprovingly: "Actually, it's not all, it's not the eldest lady of the Yan family, these days I often come to the palace to ask to see Niangniang, and I also sent things to please Niangniang, Niangniang didn't want to see it, so I asked the slave maid to send it away, and I just sent the things back." After a pause, he said to Jin Zhao, "Don't get me wrong, Niangniang is on your side." ”
How could Jin Zhao not know this truth, otherwise Concubine Jing would not have said such things to herself today.
