Chapter 218: Too good to her
The emperor knew that a girl should not be kept at home, so he sighed helplessly, "When do you plan to leave for Daxia?"
Jiang Youning knew that the emperor had agreed, and she said, "Tomorrow."
The emperor was even more reluctant to leave when he heard tomorrow, "Okay, I will prepare the dowry and the guards, and I can't let you suffer any grievances."
Jiang Youning was surprised and happy when she heard about dowry. She didn't expect that she would still have dowry after such a long marriage.
When she got married, she didn't have much dowry, and Xie Jing arranged it all by himself, which was also considered to be a show.
The emperor looked at Xie Jing and said in a stern voice: "She is the apple of my eye. If you dare to bully her, I will never forgive you."
Xie Jing clasped his fists and bowed, saying: "Please rest assured, father, I will treat Aning well and will never bully her."
The emperor nodded with satisfaction. He looked at Jiang Youning and saw the familiar face. He sighed that time passed so quickly.
After the banquet, the emperor asked people to prepare the wedding dowry and the princess's guard of honor so that Jiang Youning could return to Daxia in glory.
When Xiao Yu learned that she could return to Daxia, her peach blossom eyes were full of joy, "Finally, I can go back. I miss the delicious food in Jinling so much, and my hot pot city."
Xiao Yu said and looked at Chu Qing again, "Wife, are you happy?"
Chu Qing was naturally happy, because she was not used to the eating habits here.
"Yeah."
Jiang Qibai also breathed a sigh of relief, "This time it was not in vain. After experiencing life and death, I am more transparent."
Xue Yi smiled and said, "Indeed, after experiencing life and death, I have figured out a lot of things."
Jiang Qibai laughed and joked, "You have not experienced enough life and death, right? Then doesn't it mean that you have figured out everything about the next eighty years?"
Xue Yi smiled, "You can say that."
Jiang Qibai just said, "I admire you."
Tonight, everyone was very excited.
But they all went to bed early, leaving Chenyi Kingdom early tomorrow morning.
The lights were on in Huihe Palace.
Jiang Youning was counting the things in the warehouse and took everything she could take.
Xie Jing sat aside and watched her holding the account book in one hand and the pen in the other, with a serious expression.
He was a little helpless, "You don't have to take everything."
Jiang Youning nodded and said unhappily, "I know, I took all the valuable and easy-to-carry things."
Xie Jing sighed helplessly, "Money is something outside of the body."
Jiang Youning said, "Money is not omnipotent. You can't live without money on the computer. It is something outside of the body before you die, but when you are alive, money is a good thing."
Xie Jing: "..."
In the end, Xie Jing got up and threw the account book in her hand, and then carried her to the bed.
"If you don't go to sleep, it will be dawn."
Jiang Youning lay on Xie Jing's shoulder and said, "I'm almost done."
Xie Jing put Jiang Youning on the bed and questioned, "Are those things more important than me?"
Jiang Youning snuggled in his arms and said softly, "Of course my husband is more important."
Money is equally important, it is her way out.
Xie Jing always felt that Jiang Youning didn't mean what she said, but it was a pity that he couldn't hear what she was thinking.
Since waking up from the coma, he found that his mind reading skills had failed.
He asked again, "Count those things, are they more fragrant than hugging me to sleep?"
Jiang Youning stroked Xie Jing's chest muscles through his clothes with one hand, and looked at the pile of gold and silver jewelry, which seemed to smell good.
She raised her head and looked at Xie Jing, kissed him on the lips, "It's still better to sleep with you in my arms."
When she got out of bed, those vulgar things still smelled good.
Jiang Youning threw herself into Xie Jing's arms, touching his chest and abdominal muscles wantonly.
Xie Jing looked at Jiang Youning lying on him, and didn't stop her, but just told her: "Rest early, we have to hurry tomorrow."
Jiang Youning turned a deaf ear to him, and after groping for a while, she suddenly raised her head and looked at Xie Jing, "Your chest and abdominal muscles are not strong anymore."
Xie Jing: "..."
Suddenly remembered that he hadn't exercised for a long time, and his muscles were indeed much less.
"When we get back, I'll continue to exercise and I'll be stronger."
"Yeah, you'll get it with practice." Jiang Youning hugged Xie Jing, buried her head in his arms, and found a comfortable position, "Let's go to sleep."
Xie Jing took a deep breath. He couldn't stand being touched for a long time.
But he had to hurry tomorrow and needed to rest well.
The next morning, Jiang Youning was pulled up by Xie Jing.
After getting dressed and having breakfast, the two said goodbye to the emperor.
The emperor was reluctant to let his daughter go.
"Come back often when you are free, okay?"
Jiang Youning nodded obediently, "I know, father. Take care, father."
That being said, it would be difficult to come back often given the distance between us in a horse-drawn carriage.
The prince came over and looked at his long-lost sister, also reluctant to leave.
In the past few days, he has also figured out one thing.
Whether Jiang Youning is his sister or not, he and Jiang Youning will not be together.
In that case, it would be nice to be brother and sister, and the relationship would be further improved.
"Ning'er, I will come to see you when I am free in the future."
Jiang Youning nodded vigorously upon hearing this, "I welcome my prince brother to visit me at any time, and I will prepare delicious food for him then. "
The prince smiled when he heard this, "As for the division of the shop for Sui Sui and Ru Yi, I have arranged it all. You don't have to worry about it. Just supervise. The shop managers are all carefully trained by me and are trustworthy people."
Jiang Youning was moved when she heard this. She didn't expect that he had arranged everything.
So that she didn't have to worry about the future.
He knew that he would leave one day, so he made arrangements in advance.
Where can you find such a good prince brother?
"Over the past year or so, I've made you suffer a lot and exhausted you, but you never complained." Jiang Youning said with some guilt.
The prince smiled and said, "These are nothing. They are all my strengths. I can do them easily. I'm happy to help you."
Xie Jing watched the prince chattering for a long time, more than a woman.
He reminded her, "Aning, it's time to go."
Jiang Youning smiled and said, "Brother Prince, goodbye."
The prince watched Jiang Youning and Xie Jing get on the carriage one after another, and he realized that he was still reluctant to leave.
Before Jiang Youning got on the carriage, she glanced behind her and counted sixteen carriages. It is said that they were all dowries given to her by the emperor, and the emperor was also very generous.
When they got into the carriage, they found that it was covered with thick animal fur, which was very comfortable to sit on.
Xie Jing hugged her into his arms, and they were finally going back to Jinling.
The carriage team slowly drove out of the palace. Many people were watching on the roadside, curious about what the real princess looked like?
Xue Yi and others were waiting outside the city until they joined them, and then they left Chenyi Kingdom together.
In the carriage, Jiang Youning's heart finally settled down. She always felt uneasy in the palace. She
was afraid that something unexpected would happen and she and Xie Jing would not be able to leave.
It was getting closer to the end of the year, and the weather was getting colder.
Jiang Youning was wearing a thick fox fur coat and snuggled in Xie Jing's arms, but she was not cold.
Xie Jing looked at the person in his arms and said, "If you are sleepy, just take a nap."
Jiang Youning was indeed very sleepy. She had not slept well in the past two days. Sitting in the carriage, swaying, made people more sleepy.
"Then I will take a nap first."
Xie Jing hugged her tightly, "Sleep."
Jiang Youning closed her eyes and fell asleep in a short while.
Xie Jing looked down at Jiang Youning in his arms, thinking that he finally lived past the age of 24 and could stay with Aning forever. This kind of joy is something that others cannot experience.
In another carriage, Xiao Yu also hugged his wife because Chu Qing was carsick and vomited not long after running.
Xiao Yu was heartbroken.
"Wife, bear with it for now. I'll take you to eat hot pot when we get back to Jinling."
Chu Qing was craving for hot pot when she heard about it. She had no taste in her mouth and just wanted to eat hot pot.
"That'll take a long time." Chu Qing said weakly.
Xiao Yu comforted her, "Wife, take a nap first. Time will pass quickly when you sleep."
Chu Qing: "..." What he said was all nonsense.
Xiao Yu looked down at Chu Qing in his arms and felt that she had lost a lot of weight.
He looked at her belly again and couldn't help but reach out his hand and touch her belly. He could feel that it was bulging.
I don't know how big the baby is.
Xue Yi was drinking tea when he found Jiang Qibai reading a storybook again. He smiled and said, "Don't you want to sleep for a while?"
"I'm not sleepy for now. I'll read for a while and then sleep later." Jiang Qibai's eyes did not move away from the storybook, as if he was reading it very seriously.
Xue Yi also read a storybook, but he didn't read it carefully.
He just didn't know that Jiang Qibai liked reading so much.
He shook his head helplessly, picked up the teapot, poured him a cup of tea, and then held it up and handed it to him, "Have some tea."
Jiang Qibai glanced at the teacup, which was still steaming. He took it and drank a few sips, "The tea is good."
Xue Yi chuckled, "You bought this tea."
"Really?" Jiang Qibai was a little surprised, looked down and didn't get the tea, smiled and said, "I forgot."
Xue Yi knew that Jiang Qibai didn't forget, but was too engrossed in reading the picture book, so he ignored this.
Seeing that Jiang Qibai was still reading the picture book, he didn't make a sound to disturb him, but took out a book and read it with him.
At this time, in the general's mansion,
Nan Mianmian followed Leng Xiao for several days, and he didn't say a word. She stomped her feet in anger, not wanting to follow him anymore, but unwilling to do so.
Leng Xiao must know where Jiang Youning went.
Today, Leng Xiao went out to do some work.
Nan Mianmian thought there was something wrong with Leng Xiao, so she followed him secretly.
The general and his wife were not at home, and no one was watching her, so she could go wherever she wanted.
After following him all the way, Nan Mianmian didn't know what Leng Xiao wanted to do.
Leng Xiao knew that someone was following him, so he deliberately took the person behind him for a long walk on Jinling Street.
Nan Mianmian saw that Leng Xiao was always walking around the street, not buying anything, and not doing anything, so she thought it was boring.
"I followed you all the way, and I was drunk all the way. If I follow you again, I'd be a fool."
Nan Mianmian threw her handkerchief angrily and planned to go back to the general's mansion.
She hadn't taken a few steps when someone covered her mouth from behind and dragged her all the way to the alley.
Nan Mianmian opened her eyes wide and wanted to call for help, but her mouth was covered tightly and she couldn't say a word.
During the struggle, the handkerchief in her hand fell to the ground, and she had no time to pay attention.
Suddenly, her eyelids felt very heavy, and she lost consciousness in a short while.
When the man in black saw that Nan Mianmian had lost consciousness, he carried her and left quickly.
Leng Xiao realized that the person behind him was no longer following him, so he walked back and caught up with Nan Mianmian.
Since he came out of the general's mansion, he knew that Nan Mianmian had been following him.
These days, she probably followed him except when she was sleeping.
He didn't know where Nan Mianmian got the patience from. She kept following him without saying a word.
Leng Xiao walked for a while and didn't see Nan Mianmian, but he saw a handkerchief on the ground. He bent down and picked it up. He saw the peony embroidered on it and recognized it as Nan Mianmian's handkerchief.
Although Nan Mianmian was spoiled and willful, she would not throw her handkerchief on the ground, nor would she leave it unpicked.
A handkerchief would not fall on the ground for no reason.
Did something happen?
He thought of the kidnapping that Jiang Youning had encountered. Could Nan Mianmian also have been kidnapped?
Thinking of this possibility, he clenched the handkerchief in his hand, stood up, and looked around.
It has been rainy these days, and today it was sunny, and the water on the ground has not dried up yet.
Leng Xiao saw vaguely chaotic footprints on the ground, and the footprints were covered with mud.
He followed the footprints and caught up.
When Nan Mianmian woke up again, she found herself in a shabby house with the windows still exposed to the wind.
From time to time, cold wind blew in, and Nan Mianmian couldn't help but shrink her neck.
Her hands and feet were supported, and she couldn't struggle.
At this moment, the shabby door was pushed open and two men came in.
About thirty years old, strong and healthy, one of them looked a little fierce.
The other was shorter and had a black mole on his face.
The two men were very ordinary looking, wearing coarse cloth, like villagers.
"This woman is really beautiful, with fair and tender skin." The man with a mole on his face said obscenely, "Is this woman really for us? We can do whatever we want with her?"
"That man said that we brothers can do whatever we want with her, as long as we don't kill her." The fierce-looking man stared at Nan Mianmian, he had never seen such a beautiful woman. When
Nan Mianmian saw the two men, she knew they were not good people, but she didn't expect to be insulted and abused by them. It would be better for her to die.
She wanted to cry, but with a cloth stuffed in her mouth, she couldn't even cry or speak.
"I've lived for thirty years and I can't even get married. I never thought I could play with such a beautiful woman today. It would be great to take her home as my wife."
The man with a mole on his face came to Nan Mianmian with a lustful look and squatted down, touching her delicate face with one hand, "Oh, this face is so tender."
Nan Mianmian turned her head away with disgust, but as soon as she turned away, she was grabbed by her hair and turned back again, and the disgusting hand touched her face again.
The man with a fierce look couldn't help it at this time, and rushed towards Nan Mianmian, tearing her clothes.
"I can't help it anymore, it's free, I'll play with it for nothing."
Where has Nan Mianmian seen such a situation? She was immediately scared and tears came out, and she was afraid and disgusted.
The man with a black mole on his face saw Nan Mianmian crying, which aroused his desire to abuse her.
He pulled out the black cloth from Nan Mianmian's mouth, raised his palm and slapped her face hard, "Scream louder."
Nan Mianmian's tears fell like they were free, and she cried out in pain on her cheeks, "Please, let me go..."
"When we have enough fun, we will let you go." The man with a black mole on his face pulled her skirt.
At this moment, the door was pushed open with a clang.
