"No." Shen Qing shook his head.
Jiang Zhuo lowered his head and chuckled, he knew it.
“This is it.”
Chen Qing held a jade pendant in his hand, which shone with a warm luster. Under the splendor of the fireworks blooming brightly in the sky, all the noise around him seemed to gradually fade away.
Jiang Zhuo looked at Chen Qing, his heartbeat seeming to drown out the crackling of firecrackers in his ears. At this moment, his world seemed to be filled with only Chen Qing in front of him, the way she held the jade pendant, and the face that made him intoxicated.
His eyes seemed to be locked on Shen Qing, as if he was under a spell, immersed in this dreamlike scene.
"Don't want it? Then I take it back."
"want."
Jiang Zhuo took the jade pendant and held it tightly in his hand.
"Master Jiang, I don't like to drag things out. I seem to have suddenly realized that your joining may be more meaningful than me going it alone."
"Master said that fireworks are more beautiful when viewed with the one you love. Jiang Zhuo, are you willing?"
"Qingqing, you are so strong. I am not prepared for today. This is not my most beautiful dress. I, my mind is blank now. I don't know what to say, but of course I am willing..." Jiang Zhuo was a little incoherent.
"When did you fall in love with me?"
"Maybe it was the first snow that day, I made a wish..." Shen Qing looked into his eyes, "If the gods have spirit, let him appear before me."
"Then you showed up, holding a glass of wine and saying, 'Qingqing, can I play chess with you over a glass of wine?'"
The scene of that day still appeared clearly in her mind, and she even remembered the taste of the wine clearly.
"This is the best New Year's gift I have ever received."
The snowflakes fluttered down and flew around freely, as if in response to some romantic atmosphere.
"Qingqing, it's snowing."
"Well, Happy New Year, Lord Jiang."
"Happy New Year, my dear."
…
"When can I go to the general's mansion to present the betrothal gifts?" Jiang Zhuo held an umbrella for Shen Qing and asked her sincerely.
"Is Lord Jiang ready?" Shen Qing joked in a good mood.
There was nothing that couldn't be discussed. Since they were on the same page, they could naturally start the process. She didn't want to be criticized.
"I started preparing the first time I met Qingqing."
"Sure enough, every time you approached me later, it was premeditated."
"Isn't it obvious? I'd almost have it carved on my face and then run around the capital." Jiang Zhuo pointed at his face. "That fleeting glimpse in the dilapidated temple almost made me conclude that I would like you more and more."
"I thought Lord Jiang treated that woman like this!"
"My Lord Princess, I won't even look at other women!"
Indeed, for example, Li Ruyue, he couldn't even remember her name.
Some people say that secret love is actually very obvious, and if the other person can't notice it, it only means that she doesn't like you.
Not to mention, Jiang Zhuo is almost in an open relationship.
"Then you're ready, you can go through the process." Shen Qing shrugged, "Go and deal with my father and my eldest brother."
"Chen Qing, the most talented and beautiful woman in the world, actually has a connection with me. I must have accumulated great virtue in my previous life."
"Haha, did you give yourself this title?"
She is also the most beautiful woman in the world with unparalleled talent and beauty.
"I am the Dali Temple Minister. This title cannot be false!"
Shen Qing smiled and looked at the fireworks in the snow, which was really beautiful.
Jiang Zhuo turned his head to look at her profile, with an uncontrollable smile on his lips.
On New Year's Eve of the seventeenth year of Yongshun, Jiang Zhuo and Chen Qing are together!
On the fourth day of the New Year, tranquility came.
Although Shen Jianshan had already said that he would cut off ties with Shen Jing, she still came shamelessly.
Shen Qing sat in the front hall, watching Shen Jing and Cheng Xue hugging each other and crying, feeling a little funny.
It's New Year's Day, and you're still crying and making people upset.
"Mother, Jing'er misses you." Shen Jing wiped her tears and stroked her belly, "Jing'er is pregnant, you are going to be a grandmother!"
"Is it true?" Cheng Xue asked in surprise.
Shen Jing nodded, and glanced at Shen Qing from the corner of her eyes. Seeing that she didn't respond, she couldn't help but raise her voice.
"Mother, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince treats me very well. He orders his servants to prepare supplements for his daughter every day. This time, when he knew I was coming back, he even had people bring me a lot of things."
Shen Qing yawned. He was too sleepy after studying chess records until midnight last night. "I'm so good to you, why didn't I come with you?"
"Your Highness is very busy with government affairs and really can't spare the time."
"The civil and military officials haven't even started court yet, so why is he the only one busy?"
“Chen Qing, if you have something to do, go and do it first.”
Seeing that Shen Jing looked bad, Cheng Xue quickly asked Shen Qing to go first.
She hadn't thought of coming here at first, but someone told her that Shen Jing had come and brought a lot of things with her. She guessed that Shen Jing must have come with Murong Zhi's mission.
If she didn't want the General's Mansion to embark on a path of no return, she wouldn't have come.
Shen Qing stood up and gave a perfunctory bow, "Madam, you should think carefully before accepting the gift that Shen Zhaoxun brought."
If Cheng Xue had any brains, she would know what she meant.
That’s all I have to say. She can’t stay in this place for even a moment.
Shen Qing returned to Wangyuexuan, took off his cloak and nestled on the soft couch, feeling extremely comfortable.
This finest fox fur was sent by Jiang Zhuo.
So thoughtful.
"Miss, this is a New Year's gift from Young Master Qin."
"What is it?"
When mentioning Qin Wanming, Shen Qing actually felt as if he had been in another world, as if he hadn't heard his name for a long time.
"Golden Jade Hairpin."
"No, throw it back."
What kind of thing is worthy of giving her a hairpin?
"Okay." Qingge had him taken away and sent back to the Qin Mansion. "Miss, does this Second Young Master Qin want to marry you? Then why doesn't he come and ask you out in person to ask for your consent?"
“Humph, he thinks that Mrs. Shen is the boss of this family, and he doesn’t care about my thoughts.”
Qin Wanming is too chauvinistic.
To put it bluntly, it's just pretending.
"Ah? Then will Madam secretly reach some kind of agreement with him?"
You see, even Qingge thinks so.
"Who knows, maybe the Second Young Master Qin will come to propose marriage tomorrow."
Shen Qing was planning to take a nap when an uninvited guest came to Wangyuexuan.
"Sister, I finally came back. Wouldn't you consider talking to me?" Shen Jing pushed the door open and sat down without any hesitation, motioning Qinghe to pour her a glass of water.
"I'm afraid the tea here is not to Shen Zhaoxun's taste." Shen Qing stepped forward and asked Qingge to take the teacup and tea set away. "If Zhaoxun is thirsty, it's better to say less and drink it back in the East Palace."
She didn't dare let her eat the food here.
Shen Jing's smile froze for a moment, then returned to normal.
"elder sister……"
"Don't call me sister. As far as I know, you are no longer the second lady of the general's mansion. We have no personal relationship. You can call me princess."
"Chen Qing, you are going too far!"
