I leaned against the windscreen. The cool breeze from any pool brushed my sleeves, and the strings of my skirt fluttered at my side, like the swaying of a weeping willow. Narrowing her eyes, Ren Feng'er brushed away the dry heat from her body, enjoying the pleasant scent of the lotus.
"This humble subject pays his respect to Princess Jin!" His eyes were clear as a limpid pond, filled with unconcealable joy and elation, as if it was a great favor to him to be summoned by me.
I gently smiled and asked,
"Did he ever take a wife?"
A slight blush appeared on his face as he replied.
"This humble subject has never taken a wife."
"Oh? Are there any arranged marriages? " He was not yet on the weaker end of the line. If he could not get married, it was expected. However, getting engaged was a different story.
"And never engaged." He turned even redder, not daring to look up at me, but standing with his hands down, eyes to the nose, nose to the heart.
I had some confidence in myself. After a slight hesitation, I said:
"Prince Jin's Mansion does not need so many people. They are preparing to send some palace maids away. Does anyone from the Jin Mansion like this?"
As for the palace maids beside me, Chen Zihuan was the most beautiful, and he was also familiar with Ah He. If he could bring the two of them together, it would be a perfect match, a perfect match.
He raised his head, the bashfulness in his eyes had disappeared without a trace. He stared at me with a trace of unexplainable hurt in his eyes, but he couldn't find any clues as to whether he was willing to or not.
"I admit that Princess Consort dotes on me, how could this humble subject dare to think otherwise?"
I thought that he was too young to be ashamed. In the end, the unmarried man's face was a bit thinner. Thus, he smiled and said:
"He is now an official. With his martial arts skills, he is just around the corner. It's just that he needs to gain more experience, why would he belittle himself?"
He looked bashful and could not speak a word. After a while, he finally spoke.
"When it comes to marriage, this humble official dares not make any decisions based on the orders of the parents and the words of the matchmaker."
I laughed and said:
"What he said is true. I was just wasting my breath. If you agree, I will ask the matchmaker." "Because the person I like is not an average person. He is the Southern Chen Princess, Chen Zhong. You should recognize him as well, so it is not that I have disgraced you."
He quickly waved his hand and explained:
"This humble subject does not mean that. This humble subject, how can I be worthy of Lady Chen?"
My heart was a little anxious, and my tone was also a little heavy.
"Is He Mo not satisfied with Chen Wu? Or do you think I'm being nosy? "
The look on He's face tightened as he hurriedly kowtowed and said,
"No, how could this humble subject have such thoughts? If this humble subject's marriage to Lady Chen would please the wangfei, this humble subject will make use of the wangfei's authority to make the decision! "
I secretly regret that I shouldn't have been in such a hurry. I didn't want to say anything, so much that it was like I was forcing the A'he. He could not bear to see him kneel on the ground with both solemnness and fear. In my heart, I had always treated him as a friend. Although he wasn't as intimate as a dog, but because he had saved my life, that feeling of gratitude had turned into an unforgettable memory for me.
Now I intend to give him Chen, also for that day's saving grace, originally thought that Chen Zhen's appearance is also one of the top, how many people would have wanted, did not expect such an attitude.
Forget it, forget it. Everyone has their own ambitions. Perhaps he already has someone he likes, but I'm just too embarrassed to say it out loud.
"He, get up. I'm just saying whatever you want. If you want, I'll tell Chen, but if you don't want to, then take it as if you didn't want to say it today." I tried to speak slowly.
He stood up, respectful and expressionless, and I noticed that his eyes were filled with something I didn't understand. Helplessness? Or a lingering sadness? In the end, it turned into a sigh. This sigh lingered in the depths of his heart. Although it did not spill any words, it did not stop for a long time.
"This humble official still has official matters to attend to. It's inconvenient for this humble official to stay any longer, Prince Jin's wife values her well!" After a moment of hesitation, he cupped his hands and said.
"Go." Initially, I thought that it was a miraculous match made by the heavens, but to think that it would be such a situation. I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed as I waved my hands to instruct him to leave.
That night, someone leaked the news. Chen Zhong knelt in front of me with tears in his eyes and pleaded:
"Princess doesn't need a servant?" This servant will not go anywhere, only willing to stay by the princess' side, and vow to never leave the Jin King Manor! "
Seeing her crying so much and every word coming from her heart, I couldn't bear it anymore. Moreover, I was only guessing that she had distracting thoughts towards Yang Guang and didn't have any proof. Perhaps everything was just a coincidence, but my nerves are too sensitive. With a sigh in his heart, he helped her up and said:
"No one wants you to leave, I just want to send some palace maids so that I can save some money." No one wants you to leave, I only wanted to send some palace maids so that I can save some money.
"This servant doesn't need half a month's money from now on, as long as Princess can give this servant three meals a day." Chen Zhen said earnestly.
To tell you the truth, I was really moved by her at the moment, her original wariness in tears in her tears, I absent-mindedly feel, Chen Hutong is still my good sister. Perhaps because she is still young and has no one to rely on in the Big Sui, it is normal for her to be attached to me more. She has already given up the idea of marrying her in her heart, and only thinks that in a few years, when she is older, she should be willing to marry.
Many years later, I was filled with regret for today's soft heart, but the great mistake had been made, and it was impossible to recover it. Outsiders are easy to guard against. Only the people you are most familiar with can give you the most fatal blow.
After a few days, I only sent off a few of the older and willing ladies. The palace also released a group of palace maids, who were either the empress, married, or sent back to their hometowns.
