Mu Jingshan then realized what was happening, and a set of big white teeth suddenly appeared on his dark face. He immediately knelt down in front of Su Ruojin.
“Your Highness, I am willing to marry Zhihua and be good to her for the rest of my life. I will never betray her.”
Upon hearing Mu Jingshan's words, Zhihua's face instantly turned red with embarrassment.
She and Mu Jingshan had grown close friends after running the clinic together for some time. Mu Jingshan had also thought that once the prince and princess returned from Xiaoyue, he would go to the capital to propose marriage to the princess.
Unexpectedly, before he even arrived in the capital, the princess came to Yanyang and brought up the matter herself, giving him an opportunity. How could he not be happy?
Seeing Mu Jingshan's reaction, Su Ruojin looked at Zhihua and said, "Zhihua, are you willing to marry Mu Jingshan? There is no need for any coercion."
When Su Ruojin asked her question, Zhihua blushed even more. Yanluo gently nudged her waist, signaling her to express her opinion.
Zhihua also knelt down beside Mu Jingshan, her eyes resolute, "Miss, I am willing to marry Jingshan."
Su Ruojin smiled gently, "Yanluo."
Yanluo hurriedly took out two boxes and handed them to Zhihua and Mujingshan.
"Open it and take a look." Su Ruojin gestured for the two to open the box.
When the two opened the box, they saw that each of them had half a jade pendant inside, which together formed a circle.
"Now that you two have settled your marriage, Young Master Mu, I am entrusting Zhihua to you. You must remember the promise you made today. If one day you break your promise and let Zhihua down, I will not forgive you."
Su Ruojin spoke calmly, even with a smile on her face. But knowing Su Ruojin as he did, Mu Jingshan knew that the princess was not joking. If he dared to betray Zhihua, the princess would never let him off the hook.
Mu Jingshan kowtowed respectfully again, raised his right hand with three fingers pointing to the sky, and said, "Today, in front of the Princess Consort, I, Mu Jingshan, swear to the heavens that I will only have Zhihua as my wife for the rest of my life, love and respect her, and will never take a concubine!"
Zhihua went from being shy at first to being moved, and her eyes filled with tears.
It wasn't just because of Mu Jingshan's heartfelt promise, but also because of the young lady's care for her.
Zhihua has been by Su Ruojin's side for so long and knows that her mistress always keeps her word. If Mu Jingshan dares to break his promise today, her mistress will not let him off the hook.
Miss is here specifically to support her; this support is for life!
To have met such a master in this life, Zhihua felt she could die without regret.
"Thank you, Miss (Princess)." Mu Jingshan and Zhihua respectfully kowtowed to Su Ruojin.
"I'm relieved to have Ren'ai Hall in your care. I'll come back on your wedding day."
Yanluo knew that her mistress had always been concerned about Zhihua's marriage, so she came to Yanyang this time to arrange the marriage between Zhihua and Mu Jingshan, which would put her mind at ease.
"Yanluo, once the Su family's affairs are settled, I will also arrange your marriage with Hu Qing," Su Ruojin said to Yanluo on the way back to the capital.
Yanluo blushed and quickly waved her hands, "Miss, no, no, I won't marry. I want to stay by your side."
"Oh, you don't want to? If you don't want to, then I'll arrange another marriage for Hu Qing," Su Ruojin said.
"No, Miss, I'm willing." Yanluo hurriedly spoke, but seeing the smile on Su Ruojin's face, she realized that her mistress was teasing her.
“Miss…” Yanluo’s face turned even redder.
"Alright, you and Zhihua have been with me for so many years, and I hope you both find a good home."
Only then will I feel at ease and entrust everything to you.
Su Ruojin silently added a sentence in her mind.
Back in the capital, just as they were about to enter the city, Su Ruojin thought for a moment and said to the coachman, "Go to Ma Family Village."
Majia Village?
Yanluo didn't realize for a moment where she was.
Su Ruojin didn't explain either.
