Quick Wear: Pampering Your Lover
Chapter 108: The childhood sweetheart killed by her fiancé (10)
The summer is scorching, and even people's hearts begin to get restless.
The streets have been very lively recently.
I heard that when Marquis Zhongping was catching thieves outside, he rescued a beautiful girl and brought her back to the marquis' mansion. This is not a big deal, the important thing is that the girl turned out to be Minister Kuang's former fiancée!
It is said that the fiancée was kind to Minister Kuang, but after the top scholar rose to prominence, he abandoned his fiancée who had been with him for more than ten years and hooked up with the princess instead. He was so ungrateful and heartless!
Many people in the capital were jealous of Kuang Ji, so they took advantage of the situation and in a short time, Minister Kuang's reputation in the city plummeted. Some people even secretly threw rotten leaves and eggs in front of his house.
In addition, while Marquis Zhongping was ruthless and selfless in handling cases, he was also bloody and brutal. The girls in the capital were afraid of him. There was a girl who was not afraid and wanted to approach him, but he arrested her as a suspect. After that, no girl was willing to get close to him anymore.
Now that he has brought back a girl and raised her in the Marquis's mansion, people are wondering if he is going to get married?
But not long after, Marquis Zhongping recognized the girl as his sister.
It seems that Marquis Zhongping wants to live out his life alone!
But no matter what, although the girl met a ruthless man, she turned a disaster into a blessing and became the sister of the Marquis of Zhongping. She was lucky.
There are many different opinions and people are talking about it.
At this moment, Mingzhen was not affected by the outside world at all. He was leisurely picking lotus seeds in the Mansion of Marquis Zhongping. The lotus pond in the Mansion was more than three times larger than the lotus pond in the house purchased by Liu Xuanyi.
Mingzhen sat in a small boat, her light blue dress complementing the lotus pond. She held a handful of lotus pods in one hand and a paddle in the other. She happily shuttled around with the boat. When she saw plump lotus pods, she would stop to pick them. Her small face, the size of a palm, was filled with a smile from the heart, and her almond eyes were shining. Such a scene was so attractive that people couldn't take their eyes off it.
After all, she was just a sixteen-year-old girl, still childish and very fond of these new things.
"Hurry, hold it for me first."
Mingzhen docked the boat at the shore, and the three people on the shore quickly surrounded her. She handed over the lotus pod, which was taken by Zheyu, who then held Zheshi's arm and stepped ashore.
The hair in her bun fell down mischievously and got wet and stuck to her cheeks. Mingzhen wiped the sweat off his face, but saw Zhezhu turn around and leave.
She wondered, "Does Zhezhu hate me?"
Zhe Yu broke off a lotus seed and put it into his mouth, then said with a slur, "Zhe Zhu is just a taciturn person. He's like this to everyone. Sister Zhen, the lotus seed is so sweet. Come and try it."
"Really?" Mingzhen's eyes lit up, and he quickly went over to pick up one and threw it to Zhe Shi, then took another and prepared to break it open himself.
At this moment, a shadow was cast in front of him, the lotus pod in his hand was taken away, and a cup of tea was stuffed into his hand.
Zhezhu put the tea in her hand, opened the lotus pod for her, and carefully picked out the lotus seeds one by one.
Mingzhen didn't refuse. She was thirsty too, so she just picked up the water and drank it, while accepting the food from Zhezhu.
"You're so good! I was wondering why you left suddenly. Turns out you were trying to please Sister Zhen!" Zhe Yu complained angrily.
Zhezhu glanced at him without saying anything, and continued to hand the peeled lotus seeds to Mingzhen.
Zhe Shi looked at this scene and frowned slightly.
Is Zhezhu right for Miss Ming...
But he also saw clearly in the past few days that the master had some special feelings for Miss Ming, and if Zhe Zhu liked her... it would be fruitless.
"Is your master very rich?"
Ming Zhen asked casually. After all, the mansion was so big, and he was the only master, but there were quite a few servants. The design of the mansion was quite interesting, so Ming Zhen was not bored at all staying here.
"That's not the case." Zhe Shi explained, "Most of the master's wealth was used to help disaster relief, leaving only this mansion..."
In the past, the Ye family was also a large family, but they were wiped out by their enemies, leaving only Ye Chengshu as the only descendant. In order to appease him, the emperor made him the Marquis of Zhongping and brought him to his side to use.
Although Ye Chengshu later successfully killed his enemy, he also became cold and indifferent. Except for a few rare people, he didn't like to contact anyone.
if......
Zhe Shide's gaze fell on Mingzhen's face.
If the master likes Miss Ming, it would be great if he could marry her. The mansion would be filled with laughter and joy, and the master would be much happier.
Mingzhen was surprised, "Then your master is still a good person!"
I feel very relieved to cooperate with him.
The four of them sat in the pavilion chatting and laughing, and occasionally they could hear Zhe Yu's angry roar. Ye Chengshu took in this peaceful scene.
There was a rare warmth in his eyes, and when he looked at Mingzhen, there was an imperceptible emotion in his eyes. His usually cold and hard expression now showed a distinct smile.
Mingzhen, this little girl, can always convey her happiness to others. Although she is petite, she is extremely determined inside. It is really easy to fall in love with her.
The palace hasn't been this lively for a long time.
......
Mingzhen took a short nap at noon, then went to find Ye Chengshu with a bunch of lotus pods.
I happened to see him standing in the small martial arts arena built in the mansion, patiently wiping his black long sword that was rarely unsheathed.
He lowered his head slightly, wearing a plain coat covered with silver kirin-patterned shoulder armor. He glanced up at the person coming, and a murderous aura emanated from him. Seeing that it was Mingzhen, he retracted his aura of keeping people at a distance, sheathed his sword, and walked towards her.
"Why are you here? Do you want to talk to me?"
"Yes." Mingzhen raised the lotus pod in his hand, "Please have some lotus seeds, my lord."
"You're asking me to eat lotus seeds from the lotus pods I planted. Isn't that a bit unreasonable?" Ye Chengshu's lips curled up slightly as he took the lotus pods.
The two walked to a pavilion and sat down, and several servants brought them snacks and tea.
Mingzhen rested his face on one hand in a leisurely manner. With the other hand, he picked up a piece of cake, sniffed it, and took a bite. "How's the investigation of the assassin going?"
"It's the prince."
"I knew it." There was no surprise in Mingzhen's tone.
The prince is a sinister and vindictive villain who will never allow anyone to escape his control.
Even though Mingzhen stayed in the mansion of Marquis Zhongping every day, someone still sent people to sneak in and kill Mingzhen. Fortunately, the mansion was well guarded, and Zhe Shi, Zhe Zhu and Zhe Yu were always by her side to protect her.
However, Liu Xuanyi didn't kill Mingzhen, but lied about completing the mission. Although he found a good excuse, he is afraid that he will still be tortured by the prince...
......
On the other side, Kuang Ji, who was caught up in public opinion, kept his head down and said nothing.
"Brother Jie, say something!" The fifth princess' eyes turned red with anger, but when she saw the depressed man in front of her, she softened her heart.
Everyone in the capital has been talking about this matter recently. Judging from the haggard look on my brother's face, I'm afraid he has suffered a huge blow.
Maybe he just loves himself too much, so he dare not tell himself about his past.
She went forward and hugged the man, burying her face in his chest, "Brother Jie, don't be like this, I believe you... I don't care what others say, I just want you..."
Kuang Ji rubbed her head, but his eyes were filled with darkness.
He was released after being imprisoned for three days and was told that he had been poisoned. Not only would he suffer excruciating pain every full-moon night, but he could die at any time.
Therefore, he could only agree to that condition, perhaps there would be a glimmer of hope.
As for the Crown Prince and the Fifth Princess, I can only apologize to them...
Because he doesn't want to die yet.
