Chapter 156 There is nothing about him that I don’t hate

The smile on Xiao Jinmian's face disappeared. After a moment of silence, he sighed softly.

Shen Qingyi looked at her expression seriously, but her face was indifferent and she couldn't tell anything.

"Actually, it's not something I suddenly thought of, but I've been wanting to tell you for a long time."

"Princess, I want to ask you, how do you feel about Shen Yaoxing?"

How does it feel?

Xiao Jinmian raised her head slightly, her eyes darkening as she said without any emotion, "I'm disgusted, I'm disgusted by him, I wish I could tear his mouth apart."

"Except for that face, everything about him is what I hate the most."

Shen Qingyi: "..."

Shen Qingyi never expected to hear such an answer. Her heart instantly turned cold and fell to the bottom.

What on earth did Chen Yaoxing do to make the princess hate him so much?

Also, the princess hates him so much, how dare he have such a desire for her?

Dad and elder brother are really something. They actually said that the princess also has feelings for Shen Yaoxing. This is not love at all. It’s so uncomfortable that I feel uncomfortable for a long time just by looking at him.

And she actually believed what her father and elder brother said and came to tell the princess about this. It was really ridiculous.

If she had known that the princess had no affection for Shen Yaoxing at all, she would never have told the princess these things even if she was beaten to death.

How to end it now?

"Uh, Princess, since you hate him so much, then just pretend I didn't say anything today and forget everything we said before. Let's change the subject, okay?"

Xiao Jinmian looked at her, inquiring for a moment, and then said, "Qingyi, you're not acting right today. Why did you mention those things when you knew I was engaged?"

"I just saw that the princess liked my face, so I thought of some irrelevant things for a moment."

Shen Qingyi stuck out her tongue, took Xiao Jinmian's arm, and looked at her flatteringly.

"If I had known that the princess hated him so much, I would definitely not have said that."

"Also, I love the princess so much that I got carried away and wanted to get closer to her."

She couldn't tell the princess, because Shen Yaoxing liked the princess, so he came to say these words to the princess.

The princess only has disgust towards Shen Yaoxing. If he wants to win her heart, it seems that he needs to win her favor himself.

After returning today, she would go find Chen Yaoxing and ask him to put aside all his work and come to the princess to improve her favor.

If he still can't make the princess fall in love with him in the end, he can only blame himself for his incompetence.

I hope he can face reality and not do anything despicable.

"Okay, even though I think you're a little weird today and what you said doesn't seem true, I've decided to believe you."

Xiao Jinmian raised her chin, curled her lips and smiled, looking as if she didn't care about Shen Qingyi. Shen Qingyi was so excited that she wanted to hold her face and kiss her twice, but she tried hard to resist this impulse.

"That's so kind of you, Princess."

"Qingyi is also very good."

“…”

The two of them started to flatter each other.

After the mutual praise mode ended, Shen Qingyi changed the subject and continued to whisper in Xiao Jinmian's ear, trying to brainwash her.

"Princess, there's something I've thought about for a long time, and I've decided to tell you. But you can't be angry with me after hearing it, okay?"

"You speak first. As for whether I should be angry or not, I can only decide after you finish speaking."

Xiao Jinmian raised her eyebrows and smiled proudly.

Having said that, Shen Qingyi could already tell from her expression that no matter what she said, the princess would not be angry.

She took a deep breath, organized her words, and spoke slowly.

"Princess, do you trust my judgment of people?"

Without waiting for Xiao Jinmian's response, she continued, "I always feel that Lu Jinghuai is not your ideal man. He is not as sincere to you as you imagine."

"Marriage is a lifelong matter, it concerns a lifetime of happiness. Princess, are you really determined to marry him?"

Hearing this, Xiao Jinmian began to look confused.

"If I remember correctly, this is the second time Qingyi has told me about this. What happened to Lu Jinghuai? Qingyi seems to dislike him very much."

He will kill you!

Shen Qingyi sighed silently. There was no way she could tell Xiao Jinmian the plot. Even if she did, Xiao Jinmian would not believe it because it had not happened yet.

"Princess, Master Xie was so rude to me. Do you think I have ever said anything bad about him?"

"Those involved are confused, but those on the sidelines can see things more clearly. The princess herself cannot see clearly, but I can see that Lu Jinghuai does not truly love the princess."

"The princess is so noble, so precious, so favored by the empire. Why would she marry a man with ulterior motives? To become his stepping stone to power?"

"He's a bastard, and only after he attached himself to the princess did he replace the legitimate son and become a young marquis. The princess has already given him more than enough."

Since he couldn't tell the truth, he could only use the power of language to deceive people and plant a seed of doubt in the princess's heart.

Once the right opportunity arises, this seed will take root and sprout, quickly invading the princess's heart.

"As I said, marriage is a lifelong matter. Princess, once you get married, it will be too late to regret it."

"Therefore, I hope the princess can consider it carefully."

"Finally, I would like to ask Princess, is it because of the engagement we made years ago that you want to marry him, or is it because you truly love Lu Jinghuai?"

"Princess, do you love him?"

A trace of sadness flashed across Xiao Jinmian's eyes, and then a bitter smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"It doesn't really matter whether he loves me or not, as long as he shows that he loves me."

"I don't care about his heart, I only care about his actions. As long as he does things that make me happy and joyful when he's with me, that's enough."

"As for sincerity, who can guarantee how real it is?"

"As long as I remain the emperor's favorite princess, even if he pretends to love me, he will have to pretend for the rest of his life."

"If you can pretend for a lifetime, what's the difference between that and the real thing?"

Shen Qingyi was deeply shocked and felt that her entire worldview had been severely impacted.

She had never thought that Xiao Jinmian would have such thoughts when it came to choosing a husband.

'I only like people who like me.'

"If you can pretend forever, then what's the difference between that and the real thing?"

This idea does sound incredible, but we have to admit that it makes sense. Isn't it a kind of clarity?

The only problem is, things change in this world.

If Lu Jinghuai was given a chance to fall in love with other women, he would dare to murder the princess of the time.

How could she watch the princess jump into the fire pit?

"Princess, before this, I really didn't understand your standards for choosing a husband, but now I know."

"Although you have thought it through clearly regarding marriage, I still hope you can think about it again."

"I hope the princess will have a carefree life and find true happiness..."
