If Zhou Chengzhen could truly overthrow the Yan Kingdom and ascend to a high position, then she.........
Thinking of this, Lin'er's heart pounded. She twisted her handkerchief and asked, "Father, have you really seen Lin Jiaoyun, whom Zhou Cheng treats like a precious jewel? Is she really not as pretty as me?"
"Absolutely true!"
"If that daughter goes to the banquet tonight, will she really be able to bewitch Zhou Cheng completely?"
"Hahahaha! Daughter, you have too little confidence in yourself. Think about it, even someone as pretty as Lin Jiaoyun could make Zhou Cheng lose himself and give her his heart and soul for three years."
"Even though Lin Jiaoyun was getting married, even though he knew it was His Majesty's scheme, Zhou Cheng still rushed to the capital without hesitation to try and steal the bride. He was willing to do this for that woman."
"With your beautiful face, daughter, he'll probably stare at you until you appear!"
Prefect Xia laughed out confidently.
As a man, he knows best what men value.
Zhou Cheng was able to go to such lengths for Lin Jiaoyun, probably because of her looks and figure. Let's not talk about profound things like soul. When he first fell for her, her appearance must have been half the reason.
How big is Beijing anyway?
How many delicate beauties can come from such a small place?
Given Lin Jiaoyun's looks, Zhou Cheng must have considered her to be an absolute beauty. Otherwise, why would he fawn over her like this? Impossible!
"Oh dear, Dad..."
"Don't make fun of our daughter. She's just average-looking."
Lin'er covered her mouth and smiled shyly.
Confidence in her own beauty shone in her eyes, and a haughty smile curved her lips: "Since Father has said so, then I will go and meet Zhou Cheng myself."
"Let's agree on this beforehand."
"If Zhou Cheng were ugly and stupid like a pig, I wouldn't care about her being the mother of the nation or the queen. My daughter wouldn't want her."
Prefect Xia burst into laughter.
He thought smugly and confidently.
His daughter, whom he had always been so proud of, might truly bring him wealth and prosperity this time.
A young man like Zhou Cheng, who has lived for twenty years, probably has never seen such beauty as his daughter. If we arrange a stunning entrance, it will surely stun Zhou Cheng.
Ha ha ha ha........
Good, good, good!
If Zhou Cheng succeeds in the future, he will become the emperor's father-in-law.
Unfortunately, Magistrate Xia's dream is likely to be dashed. Although his daughter is somewhat pretty, she is only slightly better than the delicate and charming Lin Jiaoyun.
Not to mention Cheng Xianyi, the most beautiful woman in the capital.
Even Ziyan, who was following Cheng Xianyi, had a delicate oval face that could easily outshine Lin'er.
"Young Master!"
"Young Master!"
"A letter from the black sheep on its way to Pingyang City!"
"A letter from the Xia family of Wangcheng."
Meanwhile, Zhou Cheng was in the inn in Wangcheng, ordering a table full of meat dishes for the archers. After several days of travel, they deserved a good meal and a rest.
Cheng Xianyi obediently leaned against Zhou Cheng.
She tucked her soft, white hands into Zhou Cheng's sleeves to keep warm, and every now and then she would open her mouth to be fed lunch by Zhou Cheng.
Ziyan, who had been bombarded with displays of affection the whole way, thought: "........
Zhou Cheng picked up a peanut and stuffed it into Cheng Xianyi's mouth, then looked up at the black horse: "Read it."
"Reporting to the young master, the Xia family of Wangcheng has prepared a banquet and would like to invite you to a gathering tonight. He also said that he used to be a retainer of the Zhou family and that he and the Zhou family are close friends despite their age difference."
