Chapter 143 I Met Him After Jumping into the River
Wen Xingchen suddenly leaned over and whispered in his ear: "Chen Jingting, you don't like this princess that much, do you?"
Chen Jingting: ...
Liking someone is one thing, but betrayal is another.
However, Wen Xingchen jumped down from the beam, and Chen Jingting followed.
But Chen Jingting saw that she walked like the wind, which didn't look like a Chinese medicine doctor at all. Chen Jingting realized something and asked:
"You don't have any Chinese medicine?"
"Yes, I don't have any Chinese medicine. Chen Jingting, are you wondering why I'm pretending to have any? That bastard Xiao Bo certainly didn't tell you that I asked him to find you, right?"
Chen Jingting was speechless.
Xiao Bo did not say that she was the one looking for him. Not only did he not say it, he also tried to sow discord between him and Wen Xingchen.
And he actually fell into the trap.
Chen Jingting knelt down and said, "I am stupid and have been misled. Please punish me, Princess." Wrong is wrong.
Wen Xingchen then sat down and said to Chen Jingting graciously, "You don't believe me, but I don't blame you. It's all because of my bad reputation."
"..." Chen Jingting felt even more ashamed, "I deserve to die."
And shame was what she wanted.
The more ashamed you are, the easier it is for you to do whatever you want.
"You really deserve to die, but this princess loves you and can't bear to see you die."
The teasing words and ambiguous tone did not make Chen Jingting feel good.
And even more guilty.
Wen Xingchen knew him well. Right was right and wrong was wrong.
"Get up."
At this moment, someone's voice was heard outside the door. Wen Xingchen and Chen Jingting looked at each other. Wen Xingchen stood up first and walked to Chen Jingting.
"Go hide up there."
After hearing this, Chen Jingting stood up and half-hugged Wen Xingchen and climbed up to the beam again.
After a while, two people came in.
One was Xiao Sheng, and the other was the maid who poured her tea and brought her over.
"Where are the people? Are you sure you brought them here?"
"Yes, I'm sure, but not long after I left, the princess disappeared."
"You useless bastard, don't you know how to look at her?" She drank the medicine and was feeling unwell, so she must have known something.
So she hid.
But she was poisoned. If there was no antidote, she could only find a man. If she fell into the hands of someone else...
Humph, this matter must not be allowed to benefit others.
"Go find it for me."
As he said this, he began to rummage through the drawers.
After a while of commotion below, it finally quieted down.
Wen Xingchen came down from the beam and wanted to go out, but she was afraid that someone would discover her at the door, so she said to Chen Jingting, "Go and lead the people at the door away. I want to leave."
Chen Jingting didn't ask why, but went out to distract Xiao Sheng, and then Wen Xingchen left.
Chen Jingting led the others away and returned to look for her. He saw her standing at the bridgehead. His heart tightened and he quickened his pace. But Wen Xingchen had already jumped.
He had no time to stop it.
And he jumped down without hesitation.
The winter water was freezing cold. Chen Jingting fished the man out, touched his trembling body, and said unhappily, "What are you doing?"
Wen Xingchen said, "You are unwilling to cooperate, and this princess doesn't like other men. Is this the only way?"
"you……"
Chen Jingting wants to beat someone up now.
"What do you want to do?"
"This princess has been drugged, and since you don't want to, then this princess will find another way."
The other option is diving?
Chen Jingting said:
"Princess, the world is very harsh on women, and reputation is the most important thing. You and I shouldn't be like this."
Wen Xingchen asked him, "So it's not that you don't want to, it's for the sake of this princess's reputation."
"I don't want the princess to regret it in the future."
Chen Jingting was aware of what he had done today. "If you have no intention of marrying me, then we will be clear-minded. If you marry someone else in the future, your husband's family will not find fault with you and make things difficult for you."
Wen Xingchen laughed after hearing this. This is the family tradition of the Chen family.
However, she was surprised that Chen Jingting would fulfill his promise, as he was an exception in the Chen family.
But I can’t marry him in the future?
"Chen Jingting, do you like this princess?"
"Of course I like it. If I didn't like it, even if there was an imperial decree, I wouldn't let you control me in every way."
"Oh, if you like it, why do you curse me?"
"When did I curse you?"
"You just said that you want me to marry someone else? If I can't marry you, what's the point of living?"
The voice was mournful, just like the sadness and helplessness of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai when they separated in the opera.
Chen Jingting felt like an even bigger bastard for a moment.
It's just a nap, why can't it satisfy her?
Now it’s okay, and he has jumped into the river.
Chen Jingting pulled the person out of the water and headed straight for the side hall where he had been. He found a set of maid's clothes from somewhere...
Soon, the side hall became lively.
Princess Huayang fell into the water, and the emperor and empress were furious, but the Western Xia envoy was there, so he did not show it, but asked Furun to go and take a look first.
Furun knew the cause and effect of the matter, so before she went to the side hall, she had already captured all the people who needed to be captured.
She led the group to the side hall. Outside the side hall, Chen Jingting was standing outside, his body soaking wet. Seeing Furun, he knelt down and said, "I failed to protect Princess Huayang. I am guilty."
Furun looked at him. It was a freezing winter day, but he was soaked all over, yet he remained calm and had his back straight.
His physical fitness is excellent.
Although he admired her in his heart, he said seriously:
"Chen Jingting, you are indeed guilty. It's not that you failed to protect Princess Huayang, but that you rejected her time and time again..."
"I am guilty."
Wen Xingchen changed his clothes, sat on the bed wrapped in a quilt, and couldn't help sneezing.
Hearing Furun's rebuke at the door, Wen Xingchen shouted:
"Sister Furun, please come in."
Fu Run then ordered, "Ruo'er, take Master Chen to change his clothes, and give him a cup of ginger tea so that our Princess Huayang won't feel bad."
"Yes, Ruoer obeys."
Chen Jingting said, "Princess Furun, please ask the imperial physician to see the princess first."
"You feel sad now? What were you doing earlier?"
"I am guilty."
Furun was a little annoyed after hearing this, and waved his hand.
"Go down, and don't get in the way for now. And don't worry the people inside."
The first half of the sentence was useless to Chen Jingting, but the second half made him hesitate for a while. Hearing the people in the house sneezing one after another, he felt that he was in the way.
"I'll take my leave first. I'll come back to visit Princess Huayang later."
Wen Xingchen led the imperial physician in first and examined Wen Xingchen. Wen Xingchen sneezed one after another and felt very uncomfortable.
Fu Run asked knowingly, "What's going on? Why did you jump into the river?"
Wen Xingchen said, "Someone gave this princess a vile drug. This princess has no other choice but to jump into the river."
"Isn't Chen Jingting here?"
"I jumped into the river first, then I met him and was rescued by him."
