Chapter 68
Hold her in your arms
Which of the noble families in Daye State was not secretly training his daughter to be the Crown Princess?
They are noble and dignified, beautiful and virtuous, skillful and have strong backgrounds.
None of them is like Jiang Zhaoying, who has unique ideas, acts boldly, goes in and out of mountains and forests, and deals with all things in the world.
The prince looked at Jiang Zhaoying quietly, her respectful yet a little distant look in her eyes, his eyes dimmed. After she finished speaking, the prince asked her in a cold voice.
"Is it just because of this?"
When this question was asked.
The prince stared at Jiang Zhaoying inexplicably, as if he wanted to see through her.
Jiang Zhaoying's long eyelashes trembled slightly. She didn't expect that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would ask so bluntly. She looked up at his handsome face and smiled slightly.
"Your Highness is the best man in the world. Who wouldn't be attracted to him? I... am of humble origin and have an awkward status. Of course, this is the reason."
That's true.
The prince's annoyance suddenly disappeared, and after a while he nodded expressionlessly.
Jiang Zhaoying breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he didn't seem to have any grudges.
"When the Crown Prince marries the Crown Princess, I will definitely present the most precious gift and will also help you protect Her Highness the Crown Princess."
The prince looked Jiang Zhaoying up and down, his expression half-smiled for a moment, and suddenly said something.
"Then there's no need to be so troublesome!"
After a pause, the prince asked her again.
"You rejected the mountain god. Is he unhappy?"
"I don't know. I just promised to build a temple for him so that he can receive incense. In this way, even if Qishan Town no longer exists and the dragon energy moves, he can still continue to exist in the world."
Seeing the prince frowning slightly, Jiang Zhaoying continued.
"He is the mountain god of this area. The mountain collapsed, all life was wiped out, and he has no incense to continue, so he will naturally disappear from this world."
As a mountain god, it naturally knew that an earthquake was going to occur. It also wanted to save the people of Qishan Town, the creatures in the mountains and rivers, and even the plants in the forest. They were all its people, so it had been trying its best to prevent the dragon vein from moving.
Because someone designed it.
They disturbed the dragon vein, and the mountain god realized that all his efforts over the years had been destroyed, so he was extremely angry and refused to see them.
at the moment.
Jiang Zhaoying repeatedly assured him that she would save both people and things, and would help them continue to exist in the world. For him, all his worries no longer needed to exist.
only.
She didn't understand why the mountain god asked her to marry the prince?
"I will do this. Are there any requirements for the location of the temple?"
"After the earthquake, when everything has settled down, we should pick a good place for him near here."
The prince nodded.
At that time, he would choose a place with convenient transportation so that the common people could come to burn incense and pray for blessings. In this way, the common people would live and work in peace and contentment with the protection of the mountain god, and the mountain god would be able to survive with the incense. It was the best of both worlds.
“What do we do next?”
"Your Highness, have you arranged for the people to leave?"
Two people look at each other and talk at the same time.
When the wind lingered between them, it made them both feel inexplicably embarrassed.
The prince grabbed Jiang Zhaoying's arm, helped her find a stone for her to sit down, and stood in front of her to block the wind. He then took out a piece of cake and handed it to her before speaking.
"It has been arranged. The porridge shed, the place to live, the clothes to change, and the pharmacy for medical treatment have all been simply prepared. As long as they pack up the important things and come out together, the secret guards can even arrange for them as a family unit."
Because they responded quickly and made sufficient preparations, even though there were only a few days left, the problem could still be solved perfectly as long as it was resolved quickly enough.
"How cooperative are the people?"
"I asked the governor to order the people to relocate. If there is a chance, I will definitely let them come back and settle down. However, based on the news I have received so far, there are still many people who do not believe it and are unwilling to leave."
Jiang Zhaoying knew that this would be the consequence, especially for the elderly, who were stubborn and hard to reason with. But the longer they delayed, the more dangerous it would be, and more people would die.
"Your Highness, can you send a message to them and tell them that those who are willing to leave and obey the arrangements will be given 100 taels of silver each, and those who refuse to leave will be responsible for their own life and death, and have them sign a life and death contract."
"Can!"
This was a good idea. The prince took out a flare and sent it out. When the colorful light exploded all over the mountains, a pigeon flew up soon. The prince took off the hairpin on his head and opened it gently. There was a pen inside that could write. After saying a few simple words, the pigeon flew away.
"Jiang Zhaoying, thank you for what you have done for the people. I will keep it in mind. I may not have as much money as you, but I can compensate you with other things."
Mrs. Jiang's business ability is unmatched, and Jiang Zhaoying is truly a wealthy person.
possible.
Jiang Jianzheng didn't even know she had so much money.
Jiang Zhaoying nodded.
"I am happy to help the people, but money may not be everything. If I can get help from Your Highness, that would be great."
The prince raised an eyebrow, and when the wind stopped, he walked over to her and sat down, then turned to look at her.
"Song Chengyu obviously likes that cousin, but he married you. Could it be that he is attracted by your money?"
"Yes, Your Highness. I suspect they must have caused some trouble that requires a lot of money to solve, so they planned this with my stepmother."
"Your stepmother?"
Why is there something about a step-wife involved here? Isn’t the step-wife her biological aunt? She was also Madam Jiang's personal maid.
in other words.
Mrs. Qian Jiang was the benefactor who saved her life.
"After we get down the mountain, I'll help you check it out, okay?"
Hearing His Highness speak up, Jiang Zhaoying raised her face with some joy, and when she looked at the prince, her beautiful eyes were gleaming like night pearls.
This look made the prince slightly stunned. It was just a small matter, but she was so happy?
It can be seen that they really want to divorce!
His hard brows softened unconsciously, and he raised his hand to pat Jiang Zhaoying's shoulder, but felt it was inappropriate and withdrew his hand.
"Life is already difficult for women. Tingyun is just like you, and she has her own sufferings. You wouldn't feel sympathy for her and save her like that, would you?"
Jiang Zhaoying picked up a leaf and played with it, whispering with some sarcasm.
"Maybe it's to please you, to get close to you."
The prince turned his head suddenly.
Looking at the self-deprecating smile on her face, his heart sank and he said in a cold voice.
"If I allowed you to get this close, would you not smile like this?"
The joy and smile on her face just now were the most vivid and lively. He liked that kind of smile more. It was just some small tricks. Why should she be so unbearable?
Who doesn't have means?
"kindness?"
Jiang Zhaoying turned her head, a little confused. The prince patted her head and said nothing.
"Your Highness, what we need to do next is to ask the dragon vein to leave. Asking him to leave and letting him leave in anger will have completely different consequences."
The prince looked at the mountain quietly, and suddenly held Jiang Zhaoying's hand.
"Jiang Zhaoying, is there any way I can control this dragon vein?"
Jiang Zhaoying suddenly raised her eyes and met the Crown Prince's cold gaze. Her heart trembled slightly, and she freed her wrist. She lowered her eyes to look at the leaves that had just fallen on her knees, and spoke after a while.
"If you are not careful, you will die without a burial place, Your Highness."
The dragon vein is highly respected by the world, and even the royal family treats it with great respect, as if they were seeing their parents. Now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to hold it in his hand, but he is afraid that the dragon vein will resist.
"Tell me, if I really do this, do I have a chance of winning?"
They are all from the Dragon Vein clan. The strong will win and the strong will control everything. What's wrong with that?
For generations, the dragon vein has always been the priority, and the royal family has been trembling with fear and respect. But if he is the one in charge of the country, the one who governs the country, the one who creates prosperity and peace, and the one who protects the rivers, why should he be controlled by the dragon vein?
What if the dragon vein gets angry again and causes another earthquake? Wouldn’t that mean that more and more people will die?
Jiang Zhaoying leaned against the tree behind her, but the trunk was too hard, making her feel particularly uncomfortable. Seeing this, the prince turned around and sat back to back with her, then said.
"Lean on my back."
Jiang Zhaoying was slightly stunned.
She really had never thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would be so thoughtful.
Between lips.
She leaned lightly on the prince's back. She was so exhausted. This game had consumed so much of her energy, and she was punished, which made her lose all her energy.
The moment she closed her eyes, Jiang Zhaoying fell asleep.
The prince heard her even breathing, turned around gently, and held the fallen Jiang Zhaoying in his arms.
In the wild mountains and wilderness.
She slept soundly.
Lower your eyes.
The prince looked at Jiang Zhaoying carefully for the first time. Her creamy face was pale and even her lips were starting to turn white.
When the prince gently pressed his fingertips on her slightly cool lips, he was not surprised to think of Jiang Zhaoying in his dream.
She was a very bold and proactive woman, completely different from the man who was following the rules and backing away.
The wind was blowing gently and the mountain air was getting cooler, but inexplicably my palms were burning like fire.
His eyes gradually moved down and when they fell on her lips, a hot feeling he had never experienced before surged up, making his mouth feel dry.
The prince didn't know when he lowered his head or when he put his lips close to hers.
The only sounds in my ears were the whistling of the wind, the rustling of leaves, and even the sound of leaves and petals falling.
besides.
The sound of the heart beating against the chest.
I don't know how long he maintained this action, but the prince suddenly woke up, raised his head abruptly, and his whole expression became unnatural.
The wind gradually grew stronger, and the prince held Jiang Zhaoying tightly in his arms.
This feeling of dependence reminded him of the times he had escaped death several times in the deep palace after his mother passed away.
"Jiang Zhaoying."
The prince whispered her name. The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and she couldn't sleep here for too long.
"Jiang Zhaoying."
"kindness."
Jiang Zhaoying whispered softly, turned her head and nestled into the prince's arms and rubbed against him, causing the prince to feel numbness in the left side of his chest.
For a while.
Jiang Zhaoying's soft body stiffened slightly and she sat up suddenly.
The prince knew that she would follow those rules again and said coldly.
"It's okay. I was afraid you'd get sick from the wind, so I held you. Are we going down the mountain now?"
Jiang Zhaoying stood up slowly, looked at the clothes wrapped around His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, quickly took them off and returned them to him, then said.
"Originally we wanted to ask the dragon vein to leave, but Your Highness has other plans, so let's go down the mountain and make plans."
It is not an easy task to grasp the dragon vein in your hand. Few people can win in the battle against heaven.
But I don’t know why.
She was willing to accompany His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to give it a try, otherwise she would end up like her, with her luck stolen and the other person doing bad things, and she would have to bear the consequences.
"I will carry you down the mountain."
The prince squatted down and patted his shoulder. Jiang Zhaoying knew that she was weak, so she turned around and lay on him.
When the prince saw that she did not hesitate this time, the corners of his lips curled unconsciously.
It's getting dark.
Torches and bonfires had been lit at the foot of the mountain. Shen Liuguang, Cheng Ting'an and the others were getting anxious, while Xu Zhiyan and Wei Jiuzhao were holding compasses and looking at the location on the mountain with heavy faces.
"Your Highness."
Hearing the sound of footsteps in the mountains, Shen Liuguang rushed up and saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince carrying Jiang Zhaoying down, and called out hurriedly.
When everyone heard the sound, they all ran over here.
"Ying'er."
Xu Zhiyan stepped forward to pick up Jiang Zhaoying, held her and sat back on a tree stump, looking her up and down. Doctor Chu stepped forward to feel their pulses one by one, and Wei Jiuzhao brought up the meat soup that had been prepared long ago.
"Drink some quickly."
Before, they stayed below, watching the lightning and thunder in the sky, which frightened them so much that they could not sit still.
They had never seen such a vision, nor had they seen the wonder of wind, clouds, thunder and lightning.
This time.
When they looked at Jiang Zhaoying again, everyone's eyes were filled with much more respect and caution.
"Big Brother, Second Brother, I have something to tell you."
Jiang Zhaoying spoke to them softly. Xu Zhiyan and Wei Jiuzhao looked at each other and nodded slightly.
Then.
Jiang Zhaoying told them about the Crown Prince's plan. Wei Jiuzhao stood up in shock. After all, Xu Zhiyan was a person whose soul had been replaced, so he had to be much calmer.
"Ying'er, do you agree?"
Wei Jiuzhao asked her with a frown.
"If we fail, we will all die."
Jiang Zhaoying nodded.
"Big Brother, has anyone ever dared to do such a thing since ancient times?"
Of course not. No one would even dare to think about it, let alone do it. Seeing Wei Jiuzhao shaking his head, Jiang Zhaoying smiled.
"I want to try and see whether I will die here or be remembered for generations."
"Passed down through the ages?"
Xu Zhiyan lowered his eyes and murmured these words softly. While clenching his fists, he looked at Jiang Zhaoying.
"I'm willing to give it a try with you."
If they died together, it would be a blessing. If successful, they would all be close ministers of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and it would be much easier for him to take revenge.
Maybe.
Maybe after revenge, he will have a chance to confess his feelings to Ying'er, and...
"Is this the right place? Have you found the right place? Oh, hurry up, you are taking so long."
far away.
came a hurried voice, followed by another.
"Master Zhou, this is the letter that the young lady sent. I will not make a mistake."
Hearing the familiar voice, Jiang Zhaoying quickly stood up and ran towards the torch.
When Zhou Ruogu heard the voice, he looked up in a hurry. When he saw Jiang Zhaoying running towards him, he happily stuffed the torch into A Ba's hand, ran forward with his arms open, and hugged Jiang Zhaoying in his arms.
…
The prince and Xu Zhiyan looked at this scene in astonishment.
The face looks so ugly!
