Chapter 294 You Really Don’t Want to Live
Soon, even Zhou Ruihai left, and only the two brothers were left in the study. Now was the time to be frank with each other.
Zhao Jingcheng looked unhappy, and even his tone was a bit harsh: "The girl from the Su family, this is the first one who is so ignorant that she doesn't even give the royal family face!"
"Royal brother..."
"Alright, you don't have to say any more. I know you will plead with Su Jin, but I don't think she has done anything wrong!"
The royal family's reputation cannot be offended casually. Su Jin's refusal is a slap in the face of the royal family.
Ordinary people can negotiate and continue if they agree, and forget it if they disagree. But the royal family cannot do that. If it was not Zhao Jingyu who went to talk about this matter, but a matchmaker went instead, then if they refused, then they refused. But Zhao Jingyu cannot do that, because he is Prince Rui, a prince, and a royal relative!
Zhao Jingcheng was angry here. He felt that Su Jin was just ungrateful!
"Brother, if you want to punish someone, punish me!"
Zhao Jingyu lifted his robe, knelt down, and said, "This time it was my own fault. It has nothing to do with the Sixth Miss. I was just self-righteous and sentimental. What does it have to do with her?"
"I don't even dislike her for being a divorced woman!"
"Royal brother!" Zhao Jingyu said anxiously, "No matter how wrong I am, it's all my fault. Royal brother, if you punish Sixth Miss, then I am willing to be punished together with you!"
"you!"
Zhao Jingcheng was so angry that his chest hurt, but there was nothing he could do. He didn't understand why Zhao Jingyu fell in love with a divorced woman?
It was impossible to say that he was not angry at all, but Zhao Jingyu tried his best to persuade the emperor and finally appeased him. Zhao Jingcheng's meaning was very clear, it would be best if this matter did not spread out.
If it wasn't spread out, then the dignity of the royal family would be preserved. But if it was spread out...
snort!
The emperor snorted coldly and said nothing more.
When Zhao Jingyu returned to the Prince's Mansion, he was covered in sweat.
It was almost dawn now, and he simply washed up and went to attend the morning court immediately.
Thinking about it carefully, fortunately, everyone in the yard is our own family, so no one should tell others, right?
However, it was such a coincidence that someone told everyone about what happened last night, and everyone in Beijing knew about it.
"Have you heard? Prince Rui confessed his love to Miss Su Liu last night!"
"What, confession? What is that?!"
The people of the capital were in an uproar, and a new word came into being and was talked about by everyone.
Confession? What is that?
It was Prince Rui who told Miss Su Liu that he liked her!
"Like? Prince Rui likes Miss Su Liu? The lady from Yong'an Marquis's Mansion who left last year?"
"Yes, it's her. I don't know what Prince Rui is thinking. He actually likes a divorced woman!"
"Oh my God, isn't this divorced woman already in her thirties? Her son is already grown up, and she's also the mother of three children. If her children get married, won't she immediately become a grandmother?"
Everyone was talking about this matter, with gossipy expressions on their faces, mainly because this matter was so explosive!
Prince Rui, who is second only to the emperor and the dream lover of many young girls, actually likes a divorced woman who is as old as his grandmother?
This is shocking news!
For a while, everyone was talking about this matter with great relish, but Gu Changqing, who heard about it, was completely stunned.
Prince Rui likes Su Jin?
He said something a few days ago, saying it was absolutely impossible, but now he has slapped himself in the face.
"Prince Rui confessed his love to Su Jin?"
Gu Changqing was so angry that he almost went crazy.
"Yes, sir, everyone on the street is talking about it like crazy!"
The housekeeper thought it was just a joke and told it to Gu Changqing. Gu Changqing didn't even finish his meal and got up to walk out. He remembered Sun Yuan saying behind him, "Master, where are you going?"
"Go find Su Jin!"
Gu Changqing left in anger after saying this.
I always thought that the person who liked Su Jin was Xie Huaiguang, but who would have thought it was Zhao Jingyu? Could it be that Xie Huaiguang had been covering for Prince Rui before?
This is too much. What's wrong with the prince? The prince cannot bully other people's wives...wait...
Gu Changqing suddenly stopped.
Yes, Su Jin is no longer his wife.
Then it wouldn't count as humiliating my wife, but, but, I have to go, I have to go!
Gu Changqing couldn't find any reason, but he just felt that he had to go to Su Jin's place.
"master!"
When Sun Yuan chased out, the man had disappeared. Sun Yuan felt angry and helpless.
She couldn't understand why the master still wanted to look for Su Jin even though Su Jin had clearly left.
Why is this?
Sun Yuan could only walk back and eat dinner alone.
In the yard, An Xiaoniang was taking Mu Ge'er for a walk. The little guy was one and a half years old and could already walk unsteadily, but he couldn't run yet. He walked with a staggering movement, which was very cute.
Sun Yuan also likes children, but unfortunately she has not been pregnant yet. She looked at the chubby Mu Ge'er with envy, and then looked at An Xiaoniang.
They are all concubines, no one is superior to the other, it is just a matter of who enters the house earlier or later.
Sun Yuan greeted first, and An Xiaoniang nodded with a smile.
"Sister, the atmosphere in the Marquis' Mansion is good. I don't see anyone being jealous."
Sun Yuan tried to speak, and An Xiaoniang said, "It existed before, but it's gone now. The mistress of the house has left, so what is there to fight for?"
An Xiaoniang felt sorry for Su Jin.
Sun Yuan then asked, "Master, do you like... that person very much?"
"Master, I never like anyone."
After An Xiaoniang finished speaking, she stood up, took Mu Ge'er's hand and left.
Sun Yuan subconsciously looked up at the courtyard of the Marquis's Mansion. It was very large and empty. Occasionally, a servant would pass by in a hurry, but there was no sign of any woman in the backyard.
I heard that the master had five concubines. Now that Lin Wanhui has gone to the farm, there are four left. I just saw An Xiaoniang. I can occasionally see Mei Xiaoniang. There is Du Xiaoniang who rarely goes out. There is also another one who has been hiding in the Buddhist temple. Sun Yuan has never seen him...
However, among so many concubines, not even one could be seen in the mansion, as if she was the only female member left in the entire mansion.
Sun Yuan was confused again.
Is it really as An Xiaoniang said, Master, you don’t like anyone?
**
At this moment, Gu Changqing had already rushed to Su Jin.
The gatekeeper tried to stop them, but failed. Gu Changqing led the servant to clear the way and quickly broke into the yard as if he was in an empty space.
"Su Jin!"
Gu Changqing had a scowl on his face.
Su Jin was holding Dingdang and looking at the scenery in the yard when Gu Changqing suddenly broke in, destroying all the beauty.
"Um?"
Su Jin was not flustered and responded lazily.
Gu Changqing was going crazy.
"You still have the leisure to play with cats here. You rejected Prince Rui. Do you know what will happen to you? Su Jin, do you really not want to live anymore?"
Su Jin:?
"Are you worried about me?"
