Chapter 178 Good Relationship
Chen Jingting led the princess away.
Seeing the princess leave, Xiao Zhao pushed the cards beside her and stood up, saying, "I will go to my aunt to report later. My fourth brother and the princess have a very good relationship."
Yes, they had a purpose in asking the princess to play mahjong.
There was no way around it, because the princess's Treasure Garden was so tightly protected that others couldn't find out anything.
Yesterday, my fourth brother was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall. Mother was worried that the princess would be angry, so she asked them to test her.
Ouyang Qiyue didn't care whether Chen Jingting was good or not. She only cared: "Sister-in-law, have you known that she is good at playing cards?"
Mrs. Lu nodded.
"I heard from your eldest brother that the nobles in the palace don't dare to play cards with the princess."
Ouyang Qiyue: "Why didn't you tell me earlier, sister-in-law? You made me embarrassed."
"Princess, I've heard of it before, but I've never seen it."
Xiao Zhao looked at the silver on the table and said, "The princess didn't take the silver away."
"Huh, who cares?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yingying came over, picked up the silver on the table, and took the tray away.
Everyone: "..."
Chen Jingting and Wen Xingchen want to return to their own courtyard.
The corridor is long, and one has to pass through seven corridors to get from the reception room to the courtyard.
Wen Xingchen thought about what they said and felt curious.
In her previous life, she had indeed heard rumors about Chen Jingting, and one of them was that he liked men.
I didn't expect to hear such explosive rumors just after getting married.
So she stopped, and Chen Jingting also stopped.
"how?"
Wen Xingchen said: "Won't you explain this rumor?"
"What else is there to explain? Wasn't it obvious what I did? Let's go back and continue later?" Chen Jingting was still unsatisfied. He was very restrained and cautious with the delicate and fair princess. He was afraid of hurting her and would not let himself touch her in the future.
This is not what Wen Xingchen cares about.
"I know you can do it, but how did a rumor like this get out? What did you say? Why did you say that?"
Wen Xingchen has a bad reputation because he is young and ignorant and no one taught him how to maintain his reputation.
But how could Chen Jingting's family background allow him to be rebellious?
The more Wen Xingchen thought about it, the more confused he became. What kind of mentality did he have in slandering his reputation?
"Let me guess, could it be that because you didn't like her, she got angry and accused you of being gay?"
"Isn't that a bit rude? Tell me which girl she is. If I meet her again, I will seek justice for you."
"But don't worry, I will prove it for you in the future."
Hearing her chattering on and on, Chen Jingting smiled.
"The princess guessed half right."
Wen Xingchen was extremely curious and wished she could answer his questions quickly.
But this guy pretends to be mysterious and doesn't understand women's hearts at all.
Thinking back to when she was in the harem, gossip was what kept her happy every day.
"Chen Jingting."
"Hmm? What's up Princess?"
Wen Xingchen saw him pretending to be stupid, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.
It was like someone snatched away the biggest melon I had just gotten.
I feel inexplicably depressed.
Wen Xingchen stopped talking.
Turning back, he saw Yingying holding the silver coins and asked, "Did you get it back?"
Yingying nodded and said firmly:
"What the princess won, she cannot keep."
Wen Xingchen nodded, not taking it seriously.
"Well, keep it."
Remembering something, Wen Xingchen asked casually, "How is Wu Shidao doing recently?"
When Wen Xingchen wasn't gossiping, his face looked serious.
Yingying thought for a moment and said, "He's still living in my house, and I've been sending him money regularly lately. But he hasn't used it."
Wen Xingchen chuckled.
"People still need to have some backbone."
Yingying also said, "I heard that Princess Furun arranged for him to study at the Inspectorate. This means she is entrusting him with an important task."
Wen Xingchen nodded again.
"This shows that Princess Furun has a keen eye for talent and easily recognized his abilities."
Yingying shook her head and said:
"Princess, you have a keen eye for talent. You chose her right away among so many students."
Wen Xingchen was also very proud.
"That's right, can this princess choose a husband for you who is short-sighted and slow-witted?" No.
"Yes, my master is wise and powerful, with both wisdom and beauty, power and tenderness, unparalleled in the world."
Hearing such praise, Wen Xingchen smiled widely.
"But apart from giving him money, you didn't show any concern or care for him."
"Isn't giving money considered caring?"
“What about humanistic care?”
Yingying doesn't understand.
Yingzi next to her smiled.
"Yingying, Princess, in addition to giving him silver, did you give him some clothes, belts, etc. to express your admiration for him?"
Yingying curled her lips.
"If I give him the silver, won't he buy it himself?"
"But he doesn't need your money."
Yingying: “…”
"This man is such a hassle."
Yingzi smiled helplessly.
"You'd better be careful that he runs away in the future."
"He dares, dares to betray the princess, he will be castrated in a minute."
Wen Xingchen: ...
Wen Xingchen sincerely hopes that she can live a great life in the future.
"Wu Shidao is an excellent man. He keeps to himself, keeps to himself, and is very gentle. If you spend more time with him, you will definitely discover his good qualities."
Chen Jingting saw the princess bragging about another man as if no one was around. Although he was Yingying's man, Chen Jingting still felt a little unhappy in his heart.
"Princess, how did you get to know Wu Shidao? How can you be sure that he is the man you can entrust your life to?"
Wen Xingchen looked at Chen Jingting without saying a word.
Chen Jingting said helplessly: "Princess, I was wrong."
Wen Xingchen pretended to be confused and asked, "Are you wrong? What's wrong? How did you make a mistake?"
Chen Jingting smiled helplessly.
He waved to the maids and asked them to stay away.
Yingying received the princess's signal and then took several steps back.
"Princess, I was naughty when I was little, so the old man was never keen on letting me see a match. He was afraid that I would delay the girl's marriage and cause resentment between the two families."
"..."
"But, I'm born good-looking, and there are many people who are attracted by my appearance."
Wen Xingchen nodded slightly after hearing this. He was indeed a good-looking man, with a face as sharp as a knife and a strong body. His muscular body was something to be desired. It was also possible that he was attracted by Chen Jingxi's prestige.
Thinking of this, his face suddenly became a little uncomfortable.
Chen Jingting saw that the princess didn't say anything because she was still very concerned.
He then went on to explain: "So, they came to see me, and I had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure."
Wen Xingchen asked, "Did you make up the rumor yourself, or did your father ask you to?"
Chen Jingting said seriously, "Do you think Dad would let me slander myself?"
Also.
No father would allow his son to be so self-deprecating and affect the family's reputation?
Therefore, this idea could only have been thought of by Chen Jingting, who was still young at the time and did not think things through comprehensively.
Thinking of this, Wen Xingchen's mind flashed with Chen Jingting's serious and composed look, which was really "incompatible" with his innocent and cute appearance today.
But I have to say, this is a permanent solution.
