Li Wan'er was astonished, "What do you mean, Prince?" Does he despise her for not having a higher status than the princess?
"Aren't you the one who's competing? The betrothal gifts are all according to the rules, but the amount of the dowry is up to your Li family." Xie Yunzheng lost his patience. He was just marrying her as a decoration, so there was no need to waste words on her.
Li Wan'er felt uncomfortable because he didn't consider her at all, but she was afraid that he would break off the engagement, so she said no more: "It's possible that I didn't express it correctly. Let's not talk about it anymore. You still need to take good care of your injuries and don't get angry."
…
When Li Wan'er left the house, the smile on her face disappeared. She thought that he would feel sorry for her a little bit, and would be able to comfort her even if he knew that she was not as good as him.
It seems that it would be better to avoid mentioning Princess Yongjia in front of him in the future.
Chen Shurong was still asleep in the room and knew nothing about it.
Xie Yunzhao watched from the side, not afraid of scaring his wife.
In the courtyard, Jin Zhi started crying again, covering her face and running to the maid's room.
Yinzhi was confused until Qiaoyu secretly told her that the prince had been assassinated and was seriously injured in bed. Only then did Yinzhi react.
She couldn't keep it a secret any longer. Something would happen sooner or later, so she went to guard the door of the new house.
Shen Shurong woke up and saw her husband standing by her side, a happy smile on her face.
Xie Yunzhao leaned over and kissed her. From now on, everything he did was justified.
Yinzhi heard the princess' voice and knocked on the door to come in.
Xie Yunzhao was unhappy because he hadn't kissed enough.
Shen Shurong glared at him: “In the future, over the years, there will be times when you are annoyed.”
"Impossible." Xie Yunzhao didn't say much. How could he be annoyed? He didn't want anything in this world except her.
Yinzhi was allowed to come in, and she knelt down and kowtowed: "My lord, I am guilty, please punish me."
This whole situation... Xie Yunzhao suddenly felt that Yinzhi's matter was more important than his, and his unhappiness at being disturbed disappeared.
"What's the matter?" Shen Shurong couldn't think of what would make her like this.
"I noticed something was wrong with Jin Zhi two months ago. After observing her for a few times, I found that she was actually thinking about the prince. Thinking about the affection we grew up together, I advised her many times, thinking that she would change."
"I shouldn't have kept this secret from you, my lady. Please punish me."
Xie Yunzhao's eyes widened. So that's why. No wonder Jin Zhi disliked him so much after the marriage.
Shen Shurong raised an eyebrow. “Why don’t you continue to hide this matter?”
"I just learned that the Crown Prince was assassinated and injured. Jin Zhi cried so hard that she couldn't do her job. I hate her for being so stubborn. It's not worth it for me to keep it secret any longer."
Injured in an assassination?
Shen Shurong finally knew who wanted to assassinate him and why he was not killed.
Xie Yunzhao looked at her nervously. Without telling her, would she be worried about Xie Yunzheng?
"Get up, you will be fined two months' salary. If you dare not report it again, you will pack up and leave the house."
"Thank you, my lady. I won't dare to do it again."
"Don't mention this to anyone else. This princess doesn't know about it either."
Yinzhi raised her eyes suddenly. What did that mean? Did the princess already know about it but pretended not to know?
She retreated in a daze: "Yes, I understand."
I closed the door, but my heart was still beating fast. The princess knew about it but didn't punish me. Besides, she must have known about it some time ago.
Why does the princess keep her here?
Xie Yunzhao didn't dare to mention Xie Yunzheng. He held him in his arms and only asked about Jin Zhi, "Did my wife know Jin Zhi's thoughts a long time ago?"
Shen Shurong bit her lip and looked up at him secretly: “I said, will my husband think I’m bad?”
Xie Yunzhao's eyes lit up, he hugged her and pecked her soft lips: "How bad is it? How bad is it?" He was very interested in doing bad things.
"What kind of punishment can you give me? At most, I'll kick him out of the house or lock him up. I don't think either of these is good."
"What should we do?" Xie Yunzhao also felt the same way. This kind of punishment was the most boring.
Chen Shurong knew that he was full of bad intentions, and now she was no less evil: "Love but cannot have it!"
Xie Yunzhao was stunned. No one knew better than him how cruel these four words were. He lay in the crook of her neck without saying a word.
If she hadn't married Xie Yunzheng, but had married herself, Jin Zhi wouldn't have had a chance to climb into Xie Yunzheng's bed.
Sensing his emotions, Shen Shurong hugged his waist tightly, "What's wrong, do you think I'm bad and are you scared?"
"No." He was just afraid of being punished like this again.
"We are already married, is there anything you can't tell me?"
“That’s a good idea.”
Shen Shurong touched his head: “Don’t worry, I won’t treat you badly.”
Xie Yunzhao grabbed her hand and put it in his mouth, wanting to bite it. These words really comforted him.
Xie Yunzhao, who had recovered, thought of another possibility and asked, "But she came here as a dowry and lives in the same mansion. What if she really gets the chance?"
Shen Shurong laughed: "That's even better, the two of us can watch their fun."
Xie Yunzhao’s eyes widened slightly. Rongrong actually said that Xie Yunzheng’s backyard... was lively?
I didn't want to mention Xie Yunzheng, but at this moment I suddenly had a little courage: "He is injured."
The head in my arms nodded slowly: "I know, I just heard from Yinzhi."
She didn't ask a single question? "He's seriously injured."
The person in his arms nodded again, his tone was neither hurried nor slow, neither sad nor happy, so calm that it made him excited: "Oh, do you want to send some supplements as a token of appreciation?"
Just pretend!
Xie Yunzhao wanted to laugh, but he looked up, afraid that she would see him. He was too proud: "Ahem, I didn't need to do that before, but now that I have a family, I should reciprocate."
Chen Shurong knew that he still had to keep up appearances: "Then let Mama Tian go into the warehouse and pick two to send over."
Chen Shurong looked up and looked at him with a wicked smile: "No, let Jinzhi send it."
Xie Yunzhao happened to see it and couldn't hold back any longer, so he lowered his head and kissed the lips and tongue that made him extremely happy.
A failed assassination should not be punished, but rewarded!
After a good while of intimacy, he went out to give instructions.
Jinzhi forgot to wipe her tears when she heard the order. She quickly took out the powder she usually used and applied layer after layer until it was finally almost covered.
He took the tray from Mother Tian and walked towards Chaohuiyuan.
Chiyu saw Jinzhi coming and happily invited her into the courtyard: "Miss Jinzhi, did the Second Master and the Princess ask you to come?"
Jin Zhi admitted generously: "Yes, the Second Master is concerned about the health of the Crown Prince, and the Princess arranged for the servants to bring some supplements."
Akabane should have taken it, thanked him, and sent him out of the hospital, but neither of them had any intention of doing so.
He wanted her to go in and see the prince. Since the princess couldn't come, the master would be happier if the princess's maid came.
She also wanted to go in and see the prince, to see how badly he was injured and why he couldn't even get out of bed. She felt really bad for him. If possible, she was willing to take care of him by his bedside until he recovered.
The two of them walked into Xie Yunzheng's bedroom with different thoughts.
Chiyu led the people in. The screen was still there. "Master, the princess... and the Second Master asked Miss Jinzhi to bring some supplements."
When Xie Yunzheng heard the word "Princess", his eyes suddenly opened. She sent someone to see her and also gave her some supplements? I really want to sit up and see it with my own eyes.
Jinzhi looked at the screen, then glanced at Chiyu. They had both come in, and she would feel uneasy if she didn't see them.
Akabane was very tactful in moving out. Presumably the princess wanted to see her master through the eyes of a maid and then report back to her.
