Chapter 127 The Queen Arrives 16
"The Marquis of Anding's regret for the engagement is tantamount to a slap in the face of the Cui family, a noble family. The Cui family and the Marquis of Anding are bound to break up. If Your Majesty accepts the invitation, you will be standing against the Cui family. Therefore, I have rejected the Marquis of Anding on your behalf."
The Regent stared at Chen Jia with his sharp eyes, observing her reaction.
Chen Jia smiled and praised, "Uncle Huang is indeed very thoughtful. I have nothing to worry about."
"Although I have rejected the Marquis of Anding, I have prepared a suitable gift for you and sent it to the Marquis of Anding's mansion as a token of your majesty's kindness." The Regent King added, "By now, the Marquis of Anding should have received your majesty's gift."
Your Majesty did not attend the event in person, which gave face to the Cui family; he sent a gift, which saved the reputation of Marquis Anding.
It really is the best of both worlds.
"Uncle, since you rejected Marquis Anding on my behalf, why did you still bring me out?" Chen Jia didn't understand.
Of course I can’t say that it was just a spur of the moment decision.
The regent carefully gave a reasonable explanation, "I did bring Your Majesty to watch the wedding ceremony, but we watched it here."
He pointed to the window, and Chen Jia looked in the direction he pointed. The street, which was bustling just now, had now been dispersed to both sides of the street, leaving a wide road in the middle.
A wedding procession gradually approached from a distance. They were wearing festive red clothes, beating gongs and drums, and looked very happy.
The groom sat on a tall horse, followed by a bright red wedding sedan carried by six people, surrounded by three or four maids, and a long dowry team.
The people on both sides of the road were amazed at the grandeur of this wedding. An old man with silver hair stroked his beard and sighed, "I have lived for so long and I think I have seen a lot of things in the world, but this wedding is really an eye-opener..."
Changjing Street is the only way for dignitaries to reach the two southeastern districts. Needless to say, the Dongdu District has always been a place where royal relatives and nobles live. The Nandu District is no less impressive. Those who live here are all ministers of the third rank and above in the imperial court.
These two areas are often patrolled by soldiers and are heavily guarded, so ordinary people are not allowed to go there.
Changjing Street happens to be connected to the main roads of these two areas. Whenever there is a major event, Changjing Street is the only way to go.
At the other end of Changjing Street is the tall city gate that directly connects the inner and outer cities.
Outside of curfew hours, people from the outer city can also enter the inner city through this channel.
Recently, a restaurant opened in the best location on Changjing Street, and business is booming!
I have seen many luxurious carriages that symbolize the status of high-ranking officials, but this scene still shocked him.
"I guess this noble man must be of extraordinary status!" The old man guessed secretly.
Marquis Anding is also a young man who became famous at a young age. In recent years, he has been guarding the border and has rarely returned home.
Common people have only heard of him but have never seen him.
The grandson next to him didn't know what his grandfather was thinking, and he grabbed his grandfather's sleeve and kept asking, "Grandfather, Grandfather, I want to see, let me see!"
The old man bent down and lifted up his grandson to let him enjoy himself. The chubby grandson clapped his hands and laughed, "Oh, the noble master is getting married..." The handsome groom sat on a tall horse, wearing a festive red suit that made him look like jade and full of energy.
As the male supporting role in the film Chasing His Wife to the Crematorium, his appearance is naturally impeccable.
Chen Jia was even more curious about the bride sitting in the wedding sedan. What kind of angelic beauty could she have to impress the male supporting role who was labeled as cold and heartless.
"Your Majesty, would you like to have some food first?" The Regent frowned when he saw the queen's eyes fall on Marquis Anding.
The two servants guarding the door had already placed the meal on the table. When Chen Jia stood up and left the window, the two servants just happened to close the door of the box quietly.
Just as Chen Jia was leaving, Marquis Anding, who happened to be passing by, looked over suddenly, but saw only an empty window and curtains fluttering in the wind.
It seems that it was my own illusion.
Marquis Anding relaxed his frown and put aside the doubts in his heart. The important thing was to bring the bride back as soon as possible, so he couldn't help but speed up.
"Try the specialties here." The regent handed over a pair of ivory jade chopsticks. "This restaurant has just opened. The chef's skills are good. The ministers like to come here in their spare time."
This restaurant has both delicious food and fine wine. Not only is it expensive, but reservations are required.
Chen Jia didn't know that for security reasons, the Regent had booked the entire floor.
Chen Jia glanced at the table filled with food and found that most of them were of her favorite flavors, with only two dishes being lighter.
"Uncle, you don't have to accommodate my taste." Chen Jia said seriously.
What she hates most is being indulged by others, because she will feel guilty, and if she feels guilty she will lose her appetite.
"Your Majesty, I'll remember that." The Regent nodded and used his chopsticks to pick up some dishes and put them on Chen Jia's plate. "Your Majesty rarely comes out, and I just want to make sure Your Majesty enjoys himself..."
Damn it, I—
Chen Jia immediately fell into guilt, which was three times stronger than the feeling of being indulged by others just now.
How could her mouth, which was only 37 degrees cold, utter such cold and hurtful words?
"Uncle..." Chen Jia didn't know what to say, so she could only concentrate on eating a bite of the dish he had picked up. Seeing that he didn't move his chopsticks, she immediately followed suit and picked up some light dishes and put them on his plate. "Don't just focus on me, uncle, try some too. The food here tastes great!"
"I'll try it..."
The Regent did not thank her again, but he obediently ate the food she picked for him, which really made Chen Jia feel a little less guilty.
The Regent took a bite, raised the corners of his lips, and smiled softly, "Your Majesty, I think it tastes really good."
"Then eat more!" Chen Jia picked up some more dishes for him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The Regent looked at the pile of plates and was silent for a moment.
There is a kind of hunger called "His Majesty thinks you are hungry."
Again!
Chen Jia held his forehead with his hand, "Uncle, do we have to be so polite when we are traveling in casual clothes?"
The lady emphasized this point again and again, which shows that she is not just saying one thing and thinking another, but really does not care.
"Then your majesty hopes..." The regent looked over with his deep and calm eyes, staring at her without blinking, "How should I address you?"
Chen Jia pondered for a moment and found that no matter how she addressed him, it would seem strange. She put down her jade chopsticks in frustration and looked at the table in frustration, "At least, at least don't be so distant..."
Don't thank her all the time, she didn't do anything!
"Your Majesty, please allow me to consider this." The Regent did not agree immediately. It was difficult to find the right balance in "not being so distant".
Suddenly I felt like I had shot myself in the foot.
The Regent felt very confused. His good Majesty had succeeded in putting him in a dilemma.
"Forget it, eat the food..." Chen Jia gave up and picked up the jade chopsticks to eat the food, turning her grief and anger into appetite.
"Your Majesty, after dinner, can you take a walk with me and see the scenery of Kyoto?" The Regent made an enticing suggestion, and Chen Jia quickly took the bait, "Yes!"
With a carrot hanging in front of him, Chen Jia simply put down the jade chopsticks and stood up quickly, "The sooner the better, the sooner the better, so let's get going now!"
The Regent stood up and caught up with Chen Jia in three or two steps. A fox fur coat was put over his head. While Chen Jia closed his eyes, the fox fur coat was fixed by someone.
She walked happily in front with a hood on. The Regent was half a step away from her, with a faint smile on his lips.
