Chapter 141 Nervous about His Own Wife
Du Huilan Jiang Youning said that her family background was far inferior to hers, and she was not worthy of Xie Jing at all, and was only worthy of being a concubine.
The more she thought about it, the more she was willing to accept it. She didn't eat a few bites of dinner.
The next day, Jiang Youning put on her dress under Chuntao's help. Summer dresses were not as complicated as winter dresses, but they were heavier than daily dresses, and even light dresses were a bit hot.
In her hair, there were luxurious and expensive hairpins. Jiang Youning had to wear them no matter how much she disliked it. The etiquette of meeting the emperor was much more sophisticated than that of the general's mansion.
While Chuntao was helping Jiang Youning with her makeup, Xie Jing sat aside, drinking tea and waiting for her.
Looking at Jiang Youning through the bronze mirror after putting on makeup, she is a little different from usual. The gorgeous dress makes her look dignified and elegant.
But her face is a little childish.
Jiang Youning stood up with her hair in a bun on top of her head, and looked at Xie Jing who was sitting on the couch. She saw that his eyes were fixed on her.
It was not the first time that she dressed so solemnly. She wondered what Xie Jing was looking at?
She walked to Xie Jing in small steps. Because the skirt of her dress was long, she could only walk slowly, otherwise she would easily fall.
"General, we can go now."
"Yes." Xie Jing took Jiang Youning's hand and walked out slowly.
Chuntao was watching from behind, feeling extremely happy. The general treated the girl very well, taking her alone with him.
The carriage had been waiting outside early, it was the largest carriage.
Jiang Youning got on the carriage with the help of Xie Jing.
Tea and cakes were prepared in the carriage as usual.
After Jiang Youning sat down, she picked up a cake and put it into her mouth to eat. When
Xie Jing came in and saw Jiang Youning eating cakes, it seemed that her mouth never stopped, he came to sit down beside her.
Jiang Youning handed over a piece of cake, "General, this is delicious."
Xie Jing looked at the cake in front of him, it was a mung bean cake, and it tasted really good. He took the mung bean cake from her hand and put it into his mouth and took a bite. The mung bean cake that had been chilled had a cool taste.
Jiang Youning ate the mung bean cake, and lifted a corner of the curtain with her slender fingers. Looking outside, the streets were crowded with people, and it was very lively even in the hot summer.
When they entered the palace, they came to the palace where the banquet was held.
Jiang Youning had been here twice, and the route was very familiar.
Xie Jing led her into the palace, attracting the attention of civil and military officials.
"The general and his wife are so loving."
"That's right. I heard that the general
fell in love with his wife at first sight, fell in love with her at second sight, and married her after seeing her for the third time." "They say the general is not interested in women, but I think he doesn't like women." "
The wife is really beautiful. The general holds her hand all the time and dotes on her very much."
The princess heard the discussion of the civil and military officials, and looked at Xie Jing holding Jiang Youning's hand, like a loving couple, and her eyes were full of jealousy.
What's so good about Jiang Youning? She is just a vase with beautiful appearance. When did Xie Jing become so vulgar?
Jiang Youning followed Xie Jing to pay respect to the emperor. The ceremonial dress was heavy, so Xie Jing held her hand all the time to prevent her from falling.
"Long live the emperor."
Xiao Yun lowered his eyes and looked at Xie Jing and Jiang Youning. No matter their looks or temperament, they were an enviable couple. Anyone who saw them would say that they were a match made in heaven.
"Stand up and take a seat."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Jiang Youning stood up and followed Xie Jing to the seat. She caught a glimpse of a gaze from the corner of her eye, as if she wanted to eat someone.
She was too familiar with this gaze. She looked up and saw that the princess was staring at her, probably at Xie Jing.
Although she didn't know how much the princess liked Xie Jing, she had heard about it.
The last time Xie Jing was drugged, could it be related to the princess?
Want to force him?
Ugh!
Such a wild feeling.
After taking her seat, Jiang Youning was quickly attracted by the food in front of her, and she didn't even care what the emperor and Xie Jing said.
The food in the palace was exquisite, a little bit in a serving, and it was gone in two bites, and she didn't even know the name.
She finished the dish in front of her, really just two bites, and it was gone before she could taste it.
She licked her lips and turned her head to look at Xie Jing. He hadn't touched the dish in front of him yet, and wanted to eat it.
Xie Jing noticed Jiang Youning's gaze, glanced at her, and found that she was staring at the dish in front of him.
After spending these days together, he could see through her thoughts at a glance.
He picked up the food in front of him and put it in front of her, "Eat it."
Jiang Youning's eyebrows curved happily, "Thank you, General."
The dish was crystal clear, slightly yellow on top, and filled with crab roe.
She picked up the chopsticks and couldn't wait to put it into her mouth to eat.
Xie Jing saw it and brought a few more dishes in front of her. He was not so keen on eating, but seeing Jiang Youning eating so happily, his mood would also become better.
Jiang Youning looked at the extra dishes in front of her, which were all the ones she had just finished. She happily stretched out her chopsticks and put the dishes into her mouth.
She glanced at Xie Jing, and seeing him holding up the wine glass, she whispered, "General, drink less."
Xie Jing paused in his drinking, lowered his eyes and glanced at Jiang Youning, "Yeah."
Jiang Youning heard him agree, and then she lowered her head to continue eating delicious food with peace of mind.
Xie Jing handed the wine glass to his lips, just took a sip, and put it down.
Jiang Youning drank a lot of juice and wanted to go to the bathroom. She glanced at Xie Jing and moved over a little embarrassedly, "General, I'm going to the bathroom."
Xie Jing looked over and said, "Do you want me to accompany you?"
Jiang Youning shook her head hurriedly, "No, no, I'll be back soon."
Xie Jing nodded.
Jiang Youning stood up and walked out of the palace in small steps.
She had been there last time and remembered the way, so she didn't let the maid follow her.
She went straight to the toilet, and after she had taken care of her physiological needs, the maid outside brought water for washing her hands.
Another maid held incense and walked around Jiang Youning to remove the smell.
After the smell was gone, the maid left.
Jiang Youning walked towards the palace in small steps. When she passed the rockery, two people suddenly rushed out from the side. Before she could see who they were, she felt a pain in the back of her neck, and she passed out.
Xie Jing looked at Jiang Youning and told her the location. After a while, when he didn't see anyone coming back, he got up and walked out.
The toilet is divided into men's and women's rooms, and the locations are also different.
At this time, Xie Jing was standing at the door of the Gongfang, asking the maid on duty, "Go in and see if my wife is inside."
The maid bowed, "Yes, General Cavalry."
The maid walked in with small steps.
Xie Jing didn't wait long before the maid came out, "General Cavalry, there is no one inside."
Xie Jing frowned when he heard it. An Ning had been out for a while, not inside, and didn't go back. So where did she go?
"Has she been here before?"
The maid replied, "General Cavalry, I just came here to take duty. I wonder if my wife has been here."
Xie Jing didn't waste any more words when he heard it, and turned around and strode away.
Seeing the eunuch guards on duty, he asked, "Have you seen my wife?"
The eunuch bowed to Xie Jing and said, "Reply to the cavalry general, I haven't seen the general's wife."
My dears, it's late.
I updated 5,000 words today, and tomorrow I will update 7,000 words if nothing goes wrong.
