Chapter 92: The ability to throw oneself into the arms of others
Chen Niao and Zheng Qingrong looked at each other and then looked at Yu Qinghuan.
Zheng Qingrong hesitated to speak, but Chen Niao beside her spoke for her, "But if she surrenders to the Crown Prince and Prince Rui finds out, Arong will be in danger in the palace. Moreover, the Zheng family and the Rui Palace are relatives. If she surrenders to the Crown Prince now, he probably won't believe her and might even think it's a trap."
What Chen Niao said was what Zheng Qingrong was worried about.
What Yu Qinghuan said, surrendering to the prince was indeed a solution, but what she feared was offending Prince Rui, and the Zheng family would not be trusted by the prince. It would be one thing for her to die, but it would also bring trouble to her family.
Seeing Zheng Qingrong's hesitation, obviously afraid of bringing trouble to her family, Yu Qinghuan said with a smile, "The Zheng family is not an ordinary family. If Lord Zheng is sincere enough to the Crown Prince, the Crown Prince will not distrust you. Besides, aren't these injuries on your body the best evidence to gain the Crown Prince's trust?"
She stopped there and didn't say anything else. After all, it all depends on whether Lord Zheng loves his daughter.
If he loved his daughter, and he came forward to join the prince, he would have the confidence to fight against King Rui.
If Lord Zheng doesn't care about his daughter's life or death, then Zheng Qingrong doesn't need to worry about her family. She can just hand over the evidence against Prince Rui to the Crown Prince and seek protection.
In the final analysis, she could only rely on Zheng Qingrong to point out a clear path, and the rest depended on her own choice.
Zheng Qingrong and Chen Niao were not fools. After thinking about it carefully, they knew what she meant.
After a while, Prince Rui from the front yard sent someone to urge Princess Rui to return home, saying that it was getting late. Only then did Zheng Qingrong and Chen Niao stand up and say goodbye.
Although Zheng Qingrong hadn't made up her mind yet, she knew that Yu Qinghuan had indeed come up with an excellent solution for her. Before leaving, she bowed to Yu Qinghuan and said, "Madam Yu, thank you for today. I've taken note of everything you said."
When Chen Niao left, she thought of the annoying old lady in Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion and Yu Qinghuan being trapped in the square courtyard. She couldn't help but say to her, "It's a pity for you to get married like this."
Yu Qinghuan didn't understand what she meant, so he just smiled and sent the two away.
After Prince Rui and his wife left, the guests in the front and back yards also dispersed one after another, and the Xie brothers saw them off at the gate of the mansion.
After Yu Qinghuan sent Zheng Qingrong and Chen Niao away, she wanted to go back to her backyard. However, as soon as she turned around, she bumped into a wall of people. She staggered backwards and was grabbed by the arm, and fell into the other person's hot arms.
The scent of ambergris filled her nose, and Yu Qinghuan knew it was Xiao Jinghe without even looking up.
Considering that someone might come and go here at any time, she immediately wanted to push Xiao Jinghe away, but Xiao Jinghe's palm held her waist tightly, and she couldn't move back even a step.
Xiao Jinghe's lips curled slightly, and his deep voice brushed past Yu Qinghuan's ears, "Madam Yu is good at throwing herself into the arms of others."
At this time, Sang Ru had already skillfully walked to the side and kept watch for the two of them.
Yu Qinghuan's face was red from the cold wind, and she pressed tightly against Xiao Jinghe's warm chest. Although she felt somewhat comfortable, she frowned and said, "Your Highness, this is the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion. Please let me go. If someone sees us, it will be bad."
Xiao Jinghe reluctantly released her hand after hearing her words, but he had no intention of letting her go. Instead, he pushed Yu Qinghuan to the edge of the corridor step by step, and lifted the pendant hanging from her ear with his fingers. "You look very beautiful in this outfit today. Why didn't I see you wearing it before at the manor?"
He had never known before that a woman could look so beautiful in a purple dress. At this moment, he even wanted to tear off Yu Qinghuan's clothes bit by bit...
Yu Qinghuan clearly saw Xiao Jing in front of her, and the surging dark tide in his eyes, which was filled with extremely strong possessiveness, as if it wanted to swallow her up.
She swallowed nervously, afraid that someone might pass by at this moment. What would happen if the news got out that the prince was secretly meeting a married woman in a minister's house?
Just at this moment, Xiao Jinghe's hand rubbed her earlobe for a while, took off one earring and held it in his palm, without any intention of keeping a distance from her.
Yu Qinghuan sensed something was wrong and turned his head away from the aggressive gaze before him. He whispered, "Your Highness, Xie Zhiwen is alive."
The implication is that both himself and Xiao Jinghe should pretend that what happened in Zhuangzi never happened, instead of being like this now.
Xiao Jinghe raised his eyebrows slightly, "So what?"
Yu Qinghuan gritted her teeth. This guy asked even though he knew the answer!
She said stubbornly, "Your Highness should forget about the past. It will be a good thing for you..."
As soon as she said this, Xiao Jinghe pinched her chin and forced her to look up and look at him.
Xiao Jinghe's voice turned cold and angry, "Yu, it was you who took the initiative to come here and seduce me into having an affair with you. Now that Ningyuan Hou has just returned to the capital, you want to distance yourself from me?"
He was extremely annoyed. He hadn't even thought it through yet, but the woman in front of him had already decided to break up with him and wanted to pretend that nothing had happened before.
Yu Qinghuan looked helpless and a little aggrieved. She nervously clutched her sleeves and met Xiao Jinghe's questioning gaze. "I am a married woman. If Your Highness is involved with me and others know about it, it will damage Your Highness's reputation."
Xiao Jinghe sneered, not buying her tricks. This woman was always good at putting on an act. "You're not worried about damaging my reputation, you're clearly afraid that Ning Yuanhou will find out about us and divorce you."
"Yu, if Ningyuan Hou knew about this, would he hand you over to me or continue to protect you?"
Yu Qinghuan was silent for a moment. Seeing that pretending to be pitiful was useless, she simply asked openly, "What do you think, Your Highness?"
Xiao Jinghe thought for a moment, "I heard that Ningyuan Hou will take you to Jingyuan to enjoy the scenery tomorrow?"
Yu Qinghuan's heart skipped a beat, and she had a hunch that something bad was going to happen.
Xiao Jinghe changed the hand that was pinching her chin to cupping her face, lowered his eyes and approached her, stopping just before he almost touched her red lips. "I will send someone to look for you, you'd better come and see me obediently."
Yu Qinghuan felt dizzy. She thought Xie Zhili was crazy enough, but now there was an even crazier Xiao Jinghe.
What kind of place is Jingyuan? It is the biggest entertainment place for people in the capital, with all kinds of people there. Xiao Jing and the prince just went to that kind of place for a visit, and they also wanted to meet her. If someone saw them, her head would really be moved off!
But if I don't agree now, I'm afraid my head will be moved soon.
Yu Qinghuan agreed reluctantly. Xiao Jinghe was very satisfied with her understanding. He opened his lips and bit her red lips, taking in her sweet breath inch by inch.
The snowy wind blew across the entangled clothes of the two people, and this scene made Sang Ru terrified. At this moment, several footsteps were heard not far away!
She shouted nervously, "Madam, I have found the handkerchief!"
