360 bridal chamber, calling a man's name
Zhai Dongming said that assassination is not something that cannot be used, it depends on who it is used on. Assassinating a prince or princess of a country is basically impossible, but assassinating Feng Qingchen is not a difficult task.
After what happened today, Xiling Tianlei probably wanted to eat her alive, as well as Nanling Jinfan. Given that man's stingy look, he would definitely settle the score with her tomorrow for what Wang Jinling had forced on him today. If it didn't work openly, he could always do it secretly.
Thinking of this, Feng Qingchen felt a headache. She hadn't dealt with one problem yet, and now she had provoked another. It was true that she would get into trouble. Feng Qingchen mourned in silence. When God gave her a physique that would cause trouble, why didn't he give her an identity that could suppress trouble?
Feng Qingchen thought of the Ninth Prince's reminder, and deliberately walked two steps slower, waiting for Wang Jinling to come together. Being careful did not make any mistakes. With the eldest son of the Wang family around, most people would not dare to take action.
"Qingchen, wait a moment."
But unexpectedly, he waited for Dongling Zichun before Wang Jinling.
Although Dongling Zichun has the title of prince, he never asks about state affairs, and certainly will not stay to discuss matters at this time. The only thing he wants to do for Dongling is to marry Xiling Yaohua when the time comes.
This is the life of a prince or a grandson of the emperor. No matter how favored you are, as long as you are supported by the royal family, you have to make sacrifices for the royal family, and marriage is just one of them.
"Is there anything for His Royal Highness Prince Chun?" Feng Qingchen had already walked out of the hall. Because she and Prince Chun were closest to the throne, they were the last to come out, and there were not many people behind them. However, when the ministers in front heard Prince Chun speak, they hesitated and were unwilling to leave.
Dong Ling Zichun only had Feng Qingchen in his heart and eyes, so he didn't have the time to care about those people. Feng Qingchen wanted to speak, but seeing their bright eyes, she knew that it would be useless even if she spoke, as these people would not listen to her.
Seeing Feng Qingchen's indifferent look, Dongling Zichun felt a little embarrassed and uneasy at the same time. As a prince, he stood in front of Feng Qingchen, but was suppressed by Feng Qingchen without any arrogance: "Qingchen, I, I..."
"Your Highness Prince Chun, please just say whatever you want to say." Feng Qingchen was getting impatient. Wang Jinling had already come out, and if she didn't step forward, Wang Jinling might be intercepted by someone else. Wang Jinling was very popular right now.
Dong Ling Zichun took a deep breath. He knew that if he didn't speak today, he would have no chance. Prince Chun looked at Feng Qingchen affectionately: "Qingchen, I like you. I originally wanted to marry you as my principal wife, but because of Princess Yaohua's matter, I..."
Speaking of the Yaohua incident, Prince Chun was really an innocent victim. He clearly did nothing.
Feng Qingchen was horrified by Prince Chun's eyes. Before he could finish, he interrupted and said, "Thank you Prince Chun for your kindness. Prince Chun will marry Princess Yaohua soon. Please don't say this again, Prince Chun."
This is the love of men in this era. They can marry a wife and say they love you, and ask you to be their concubine. They don't feel uneasy at all, and even take it for granted, because this is the way it is in this era.
Marry a woman of equal social status, marry a woman you truly love as your bride, give your wife enough respect, and while you still like that woman, give her enough love.
Such a life seems normal in the eyes of others, but Feng Qingchen cannot accept it.
"But the person I want to marry is you." Dong Ling Zichun said anxiously. He really wanted to marry Feng Qingchen.
"Your Highness Prince Chun, the fact that you will marry Princess Yaohua cannot be changed. You have no say in your marriage, so please don't say this again, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble." Feng Qingchen saw the admiration in Dong Ling Zichun's eyes, but at the same time understood his plan, so she refused without feeling that she had hurt him at all.
As expected, Dong Ling Zichun told her his plan: "Qingchen, can you marry me as a concubine? I promise that I can give you everything except the position of the principal wife."
"I'm sorry, Your Highness Prince Chun, I'm not interested in sharing a husband with Princess Yaohua." Feng Qingchen tried her best to choose an answer that would not hurt Dong Ling Zichun's self-esteem. Men all care about their reputation, and she didn't want to make enemies.
"But I don't want to marry Yaohua. I don't want to marry her." Dong Ling Zichun felt aggrieved. If he had known that things would turn out like this, he would never go to the Ninth Prince's villa, let alone drink that snow wine.
Snow brew, yes, it must be snow brew.
Dong Ling Zichun's eyes lit up, and he quickly grabbed Feng Qingchen's hands: "Qingchen, Xue Niang, there must be something wrong with the Xue Niang. Princess Yaohua and I drank Xue Niang, and that's why we got into trouble. Ninth Uncle, Qingchen, let's go find the Ninth Uncle now."
Perhaps because he was too well protected or because he was too anxious, Dong Ling Zichun had completely failed to consider what kind of trouble his words would bring to the Ninth Uncle or even Dong Ling.
"Let go." Feng Qingchen didn't like, and even hated, the feeling of having her hand held by someone. Up to now, the number of people who could hold her hand could be counted on one hand.
The Ninth Prince is one, Lan Jiuqing is one, and she can accept it if Wang Jinling does it occasionally.
"Qingchen, listen to me, this is most likely about the Ninth Uncle..." Dong Ling Zichun was so excited at the moment that he didn't notice Feng Qingchen's worried expression.
Feng Qingchen had a headache. Before Dong Ling Zichun could finish, he interrupted him: "Shut up!"
"Qingchen, I... I was framed." Dong Ling Zichun didn't understand why Feng Qingchen was angry. Wouldn't it be better if he made things clear?
Feng Qingchen was troubled. How could the emperor raise Dongling Zichun to be so simple? She didn’t know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.
"Your Highness Prince Chun, put aside your speculation. No matter what the truth is, now that the result is out, you have ruined Princess Yaohua's innocence, and you have to marry her no matter what.
Besides, you don’t know the truth of this matter. You are just guessing, and your guess will put Dong Ling in a passive position.
Your Highness Prince Chun, don't forget that you are a member of the Dongling royal family. Everything you do must be based on the interests of Dongling. Otherwise, even the emperor will not be able to protect you."
Feng Qingchen's words were half threatening and half intimidating, and in order to prevent others from hearing them, she whispered in Dong Ling Zichun's ear.
Dong Ling Zichun only felt a numbing heat coming over him, and he felt dizzy all over. He didn't hear what Feng Qingchen said at all, and just nodded repeatedly.
Anyway, everything Feng Qingchen said was right.
This child is teachable!
Feng Qingchen thought that Dongling Zichun had listened to him and nodded with satisfaction. Seeing that Prince Chun was so obedient, Feng Qingchen decided to disgust Princess Yaohua and plant a seed of disgust for Princess Yaohua in Dongling Zichun's heart.
"Your Highness Prince Chun, I know that asking you to marry a woman who has someone in her heart and who even calls another man's name in the bridal chamber will make you very unhappy and feel that it hurts your self-esteem as a man, but things have come to this point and neither you nor I can change it. Qingchen only hopes that you can live in harmony with Princess Yaohua and grow old together." With the previous words that killed without shedding blood, Feng Qingchen's blessing at the end seemed particularly funny.
“Puff!”
Wang Jinling was confident that he was a gentleman and would never laugh at others, but when he heard Feng Qingchen's words, he couldn't help laughing.
Qingchen, you are so interesting!
