Chapter 17 She doesn't want to be a concubine!
Xiao Yun didn't disbelieve that Xie Jing fell in love with a woman at first sight. He wouldn't think it was a problem at other times.
But getting engaged when he wanted to arrange a marriage was suspicious.
[Editor, please continue to make it up for me.]
Xie Jing and Jiang Youning were engaged by agreement, so naturally they had never thought about getting married.
He was indeed making it up, and Xiao Yun couldn't do anything about it if he didn't admit it.
If he took a concubine casually, he wouldn't go to great lengths to deceive the monarch. It would just be one more mouth to feed, and he could just place her in the mansion and raise her.
Princesses are different, they can't be raised casually.
"Your Majesty, she is not yet of marriageable age, wait a little longer."
Xiao Yun learned yesterday that Jiang Youning is 14 years old. She looks younger, with a pink and tender face, very cute.
"She is not young anymore. Girls of this age can get married. Some are already mothers."
Xie Jing: "..."
"Your Majesty, I will get married as soon as possible." So, the emperor gave up that idea!
Xiao Yun nodded thoughtfully, "Since you have decided to marry Miss Jiang, then marry the princess as well. The princess will be the principal wife, and Miss Jiang will be a lady."
"..." Xie Jing: "Your Majesty, I promised to make her the principal wife, how can I let her be a concubine?"
Xiao Yun said: "Then you can't let the princess be a concubine? Not even a co-wife."
"The princess is of noble status..."
Xie Jing was interrupted by Xiao Yun before he finished speaking, "I naturally know that the princess is of noble status, how can she be a concubine?"
Xie Jing: "..."
"You have made great contributions to Daxia over the years and delayed your lifelong event. I am only two years older than you and have four sons and two daughters, but you haven't married yet."
[How can a man be without a woman all year round? What if he gets sick? You don't feel bad, but I do! 】
【Four beauties have been given away, but there has been no movement until now. When can Xie Jing have descendants? With such excellent genes, it would be a loss for Daxia if he doesn't give birth to a few sons. 】
Xie Jing: "..." So you went to the general's mansion for half a year and stuffed four women for this purpose?
Xiao Yun's deep eyes were full of expectation, "Do you understand my intentions?"
【Think more about your own body, and give birth to a few more sons while you are young. I am still looking forward to it! 】
Xie Jing: "..."
"Your humble servant cannot be compared with the emperor."
"Think about it again, and don't let me down."
"..."
Xiao Yun took a deep look at Xie Jing and turned to leave the private room.
After Xie Jing watched Xiao Yun leave, he sat down at the table, picked up the wine pot and poured himself a glass of wine.
Who would have thought that the current monarch has been keeping an eye on his marriage, more concerned than his father,
... his father is gone ~
it seems that Xiao Yun is the father of the child.
Led by Xue Yi, Jiang Youning and others came to the private room where Xie Jing was.
Xie Jing sat at the square table, and the food had just been served.
After Jiang Youning and Jiang Yanran came in, they came forward to greet, "General."
Xie Jing saw Jiang Yanran frowned, "Sit down."
"Thank you, General."
After Jiang Youning sat down, he glanced at the dishes in front of him, which were still the signature dishes of Fu Jiang Restaurant.
[They are all my favorite dishes.
Jiang Yanran raised her eyes to look at Xie Jing, her sight fell on the wine glass in front of him, the wine inside was already empty.
She said softly: "General, I will pour you some wine." As
she spoke, her hand had already reached out, picked up the wine pot and poured him some wine.
Jiang Youning picked up the chopsticks and reached into the plate, poked a four-happiness meatball and put it into her mouth and took a bite.
Chuntao was standing behind Jiang Youning, and saw Jiang Yanran being attentive to General Xie. She looked at her own girl and found that she was eating the four-happiness meatball with her head down.
[Girl, why do you still remember to eat at this time? The second girl shamelessly followed you, and now she can't wait to be attentive. If General Xie takes a fancy to the second girl, you will be in trouble. Xie
Jing raised his eyes to look at Jiang Youning, only to see that she had just finished one Four-Happiness Meatball and was picking up the second one.
He remembered that she had eaten the whole dish of Four-Happiness Meatballs yesterday by herself.
Jiang Yanran looked at Jiang Youning and saw that she was eating the Four-Happiness Meatballs. She asked curiously, "Sister Ning'er, you have a really good taste. Even though you were dressed so ugly before, General Xie would still like you. Unlike Shen Tanhua who broke off the engagement..."
When she said this, she suddenly covered her mouth and stared at her innocently, "Sister Ning'er, I didn't mean to mention Shen Tanhua."
Xie Jing would definitely be angry if he knew that Jiang Youning was ugly before and liked Shen Tanhua, and even cried and made a fuss for him, he would definitely be angry. No man can accept such a frivolous woman. Jiang Youning
's mouth was filled with four-happiness meatballs, her cheeks were bulging, and she said incoherently: "How can Shen Tanhua be compared with the general?"
Jiang Yan sneered in her heart, [Jiang Youning must be guilty and afraid that General Xie would be angry, so she praised General Xie so much. General Xie was just deceived by her simple appearance.]
"Sister Ning'er is right, how can Shen Tanhua be compared with General Xie? If I were Sister Ning'er, I would also choose a man like General Xie."
Xie Jing frowned, raised the wine glass to his lips and drank two sips.
Jiang Yanran took out an exquisite sachet from her sleeve and shyly handed it to Xie Jing.
"Thank you, General. Sister Ning'er doesn't know how to sew. This is a sachet I embroidered myself. It contains tranquilizing grass, which helps with sleep."
Chun Tao couldn't help rolling her eyes when she saw it. [Second Miss is really something. What's wrong with a girl not being able to sew? She deliberately mentioned it in front of the general, as if she was afraid that the general didn't know it. She also gave the general a sachet. I've never seen such a shameless person.]
Xie Jing didn't even look at the sachet and refused it coldly: "I don't need this thing."
Jiang Yanran's face froze. She glanced at Jiang Youning and pursed her lips. "General, this is made by me on behalf of Sister Ning'er."
Xie Jing glanced at Jiang Youning and saw that she was eating the fish on the plate, as if the fish was more attractive.
He retracted his gaze and refused again in a cold voice: "I don't need it."
Jiang Yanran was a little embarrassed. Since Xie Jing didn't accept it, she had to take it back.
[Why didn't Xie Jing accept my sachet? Is it because I didn't embroider it well enough? It must be because I said I embroidered it for Jiang Youning that Xie Jing didn't accept it. ]
Xie Jing: "..."
Xie Jing had official business to attend to, so he asked Xue Yi to send them back and left first.
Jiang Youning was full and satisfied, but Jiang Yanran, on the contrary, returned to the Jiang residence with resentment.
As soon as Jiang Youning sat down, Chuntao said, "Miss, the second lady deliberately mentioned the third place in front of the general and said that you can't do needlework. It's obvious that she wants to ruin your reputation. How can you let her do that?"
Jiang Youning smiled and said, "The general is very powerful. Look at the sachet. Didn't the general take it away?"
Xie Jing has the ability to read minds. He knows what Jiang Yanran is thinking.
Why is she still joining in the fun?
Chuntao thought of the sachet and felt a little relieved. "You have to keep an eye on that girl too. The second lady has no good intentions."
Jiang Youning nodded vigorously, then fell asleep on the couch.
Chuntao saw that Jiang Youning was asleep, so she took out a blanket to cover her and then walked out.
When Jiang Youning woke up, she found herself lying on a strange bed. Her first reaction was that she was drugged and kidnapped.
She wailed in her heart, no way, just after saving some money, she encountered such a bad thing?
"Awake?"
Jiang Youning heard the voice sounded familiar. She propped herself up and sat up. She nervously scanned the room and found a man sitting at the table. She also knew this man.
