Extra chapter: relying on looks VS relying on strength!



After Wen Zhi and Zhou Zhengyang talked it out, their relationship became better. Wen Zhi was willing to wait for Zhou Zhengyang, not to mention one year, she would even be willing to wait for two years.

The little girl loves a free and easy life. She has learned medicine from Murong Shu and her third master since she was a child, and practiced martial arts with her senior brothers, uncles and grandfather. Therefore, the little girl is good at both medical skills and kung fu.

Of course, she did not neglect her studies, but in comparison, Wen Zhi preferred practicing medicine and traveling around the world.

Wen Jing knew that his daughter really liked Zhou Zhengyang, so he intended to promote Zhou Zhengyang and would take him with him whenever there were opportunities for training.

So for the following year, Zhou Zhengyang was extremely busy, going out early and coming back late every day.

The court officials were all shrewd people. They could see that Wen Jing was cultivating Zhou Zhengyang, and they couldn't understand why the new number one scholar had won the favor of the Prime Minister for no reason.

Even the emperor and the prince noticed Wen Jing's abnormality. When Jun Ao and Mu Youran talked about this, Mu Youran smiled and said

"Husband, you don't care about Zhi'er at all. Don't you see that Sister Zhi'er has fallen in love with our number one scholar?"

Prince Jun Ao was very surprised when he heard this. "You Ran, when did this happen? How come I didn't get any news about it?"

"You are busy with court affairs every day, how can you know these things? Just look at the attitude of my uncle towards Zhou Zhuangyuan and you will understand."

Mu Youran knew about Wen Zhi and Zhou Zhengyang. She had been close to Wen Zhi since childhood, and there were no secrets between her and Wen Zhi.

"Does Zhier really like Zhou Zhengyang?" Jun Ao still found it a little unconvincing.

"Of course, but Zhi'er confessed her love to Zhou Zhengyang before and was rejected. Then Zhi'er went out for a while, and they reconciled after she came back."

"Reject Zhi'er? Zhou Zhengyang is so brave. It's his blessing that Zhi'er likes him, but he still dares to reject Zhi'er. I think his life is too smooth."

When Jun Ao heard that Zhou Zhengyang rejected the cousin he had spoiled since childhood, he became unwilling.

"Husband, calm down. This matter is over. You can't bring trouble to Zhou Zhuangyuan again."

Mu Youran hurriedly tried to persuade her, saying that her husband loved Zhier the most and had never said a harsh word to her since they were little. It was inevitable that he would be angry and distressed when he heard such a thing now.

"Zhi'er has suffered such a great injustice, how can I just stand by and watch." Jun Ao was furious and had already thought of a thousand ways to punish Zhou Zhengyang.

"But now Zhi'er really loves our Zhou Zhuangyuan. If you go looking for trouble with Zhou Zhuangyuan, Zhi'er will definitely make trouble with you."

Mu Youran's words made Prince Jun Ao calm down all of a sudden, it seemed that was the case.

Zhier is a protective person. If she were to find out about Zhou Zhengyang's affairs, she would definitely be angry with him and this would cause the siblings to become estranged.

"Silly Zhi'er, you must have been attracted to Zhou Zhengyang's face." Prince Jun Ao was a little unconvinced. His cousin was perfect in every way. Zhou Zhengyang must have bewitched his cousin with his face.

"Zhou Zhuangyuan's appearance is indeed attractive, so it is understandable that Zhier likes him." Mu Youran thought that Zhou Zhengyang's appearance was indeed attractive.

"Youran, how can you praise other men for their good looks? Isn't your husband good-looking?" The prince asked Mu Youran aggrievedly.

Mu Youran wanted to shut her mouth. Why did she praise Zhou Zhengyang? Now she was jealous and she had to appease him.

"My husband is the most handsome man in the world in my heart. No one can compare to him even one ten-thousandth of him."

"Then you swear that you only love me."

“I swear, I only love my husband.

Only after Mu Youran swore an oath did Jun Ao become happy again. Mu Youran was a little helpless. Who would have thought that the prince, who was so decisive in the court, had such a temper in private.

Since marrying the prince, Mu Youran has gotten to know him again, but he is still the person she has loved since childhood.

After understanding the whole cause and effect and being coaxed by Mu Youran, Jun Ao was no longer angry.

The next morning court session.

The emperor saw the prince staring at Zhou Zhengyang from time to time all morning with an indescribable strange look in his eyes, and the emperor felt uneasy.

Wen Jing personally advises the people he likes. If the prince makes trouble, he will definitely be dealt with by Wen Jing, even if Wen Jing is his uncle.

Zhou Zhengyang was also somewhat puzzled by the prince's look. He thought about it seriously and realized that he had not committed any crime against the prince.

After the court session, Wen Jing asked Zhou Zhengyang, "Did you offend the prince?"

"No!" Zhou Zhengyang had no contact with the prince recently, so how could he have offended him.

"It's okay. It doesn't matter if you offend someone. Just do your job well and don't worry about these things." Wen Jing was relieved when he saw that Zhou Zhengyang was very stable.

This is the emperor's side.

The emperor deliberately kept the prince to ask, "Do you have a conflict with Zhou Zhuangyuan?"

"No!" The prince wondered what his father was imagining all day long. He just looked at Zhou Zhengyang a few more times.

"Then why did you keep staring at Zhou Zhuangyuan with a strange expression during the morning court session?" The emperor asked the question in his mind.

"I just want to see what charm Zhou Zhengyang has that can bewitch my cousin." The prince became angry when he thought of this. Even his You Ran praised Zhou Zhengyang.

"Hahahaha, it turns out that Xiao Zhi'er saw last week's number one scholar. This is great. I will grant them marriage later."

The emperor likes Zhou Zhengyang very much. He is diligent, down-to-earth, has his own principles and bottom line, and is handsome. He also does things well and is a rare talent.

"Father, if you have nothing to do, please read the memorials more often and don't grant marriages without thinking." The prince felt that Zhou Zhengyang could not be let off so easily.

"Hahaha, which couple that I have granted marriage to is not happy? Your third uncle and your third aunt, your cousin and your cousin's husband..."

The emperor felt that every couple he arranged a marriage for were very happy, and he could also arrange a marriage for Wen Zhi.

"Anyway, don't grant Zhi'er's marriage yet. It's not so easy for Zhou Zhengyang to marry Zhi'er."

The prince felt that he couldn't let Zhou Zhengyang marry Zhier too easily. His cousin was someone who could marry anyone, so she had to stand the test.

"Father advises you to save your energy. Be careful not to mess things up, or your third uncle will punish you."

The emperor felt that as Jun Ao's father, it was necessary to remind him, but whether he listened or not was his business.

"Third uncle won't do that. Besides, Third uncle loves Zhier the most, so he doesn't want Zhier to get married."

The prince felt that his third uncle must share the same stance as him.

The emperor's mouth twitched when he heard this. He felt that the prince was still young and needed experience. It seemed that he would have to help him for a few more years.

"Father has reminded everyone who should be reminded. You can do as you please with the rest. After all, only through experience can one grow." The emperor resigned himself to his fate and continued to review memorials.

The prince felt that his father was worrying too much. His third uncle loved him the most. When he had time, he would talk to his third uncle and ask him to test Zhou Zhengyang.

It's useless for a man to rely on his looks alone, he also needs to rely on his strength. Both myself and my third uncle relied on our strength to pursue our beloved girls.

(Wen Jing's inner thoughts: No, I'm not. My wife just likes my face.)
