Steal my marriage? Turn around and marry the dude to take power
Chapter 67 Gao Qingqing's Regret
Everyone went back together.
Wen Xingchen rode in a carriage, while Chen Jingting and several princes rode horses.
After they had taken a few steps, the King of Jin started to attack.
"Chen Jingting, Princess Huayang is a princess of the royal family. You cannot act recklessly. Have you considered the consequences of taking the princess out alone today?"
"If something happens to the princess, can you afford it?"
Prince Lu Xiao Yue had just been beaten by the princess a few days ago, so he was behaving well now, just following and not getting involved.
Xiao Bo and Chen Jingting were familiar with each other, as they had fought together in Jiangnan.
"Brother, this trip was proposed by the princess. She makes the decision, so who can refuse?"
"Even so, we should persuade the princess not to take such a risk."
Chen Jingting did not argue, but said: "Yes, I know I was wrong."
The King of Jin felt like he had punched cotton, and he felt very suffocated.
At this moment, Wen Xingchen lifted the curtain and called out Chen Jingting.
Chen Jingting rode over and said something to Wen Xingchen with his head down. Wen Xingchen's eyes were full of spring, and when the King of Jin saw this, his eyes were filled with sourness.
Xiao Bo naturally saw the gloom in King Jin's eyes, but he pretended not to see it.
After all, he had seen Wen Xingchen's
A group of people went to the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion. As soon as they arrived, they were shocked by the things placed in the yard.
Xiao Qi came over, greeted his brothers, and then said to Wen Xingchen, "General Tai asked me to come and celebrate the princess' birthday. This gift was sent back by him and several generals."
Wen Xingchen looked at the packed courtyard and said, "Go back and tell General Tai that there's no need to go to so much trouble next time. This princess has everything she needs."
Xiao Yue said, "Why did General Tai think of giving Xingchen a birthday gift? I've never seen one before."
Xiao Qi said, "I just heard about it too. General Tai and his men send it every year."
Xiao Yue asked, "Is this my cousin's birthday or her wedding?"
Wen Xingchen instructed Yingying, "Go and deal with these things."
Wen Xingchen led everyone to the house. Xu had already prepared tea and snacks, and the stage was set up.
Just waiting for the nobles to come and listen.
Because Wen Xingchen returned home, Cheng Yan was also notified, so she invited her sisters to celebrate the princess' birthday together.
Among them is Gao Qingqing.
After returning from the horse farm last time, the Gao family contacted the Prince of Han’s Palace several times, but was rejected every time.
The Gao family was anxious, and this time they inquired about the princess' birthday. Originally, Gao Qingqing wanted Cheng Yan to help and ask the princess to discuss her marriage with the Prince of Han's Mansion.
After all, it was Princess Furun who acted as a matchmaker, and the princess was familiar with the princess.
But unexpectedly, Xiao Qi was also here today.
This kid Xiao Qi likes beautiful women.
But the last time he heard Wen Xingchen say that Gao Qingqing didn't like him, he went back and told his mother to break off the marriage.
Royal nobles all have pride.
Today is the princess' birthday. When Xiao Qi saw Gao Qingqing, he just looked at her from a distance and did not come closer.
He came out to give gifts today, so he is not in a hurry to return to the camp. He will stay at home for two days before leaving.
At this moment, Xu came out.
Wen Ruyue followed behind her.
Wen Ruyue looked at the gifts all over the yard and felt extremely jealous.
She also became more certain that she, Wen Xingchen, could not marry Xiao Sheng. If she did, when Xiao Sheng became emperor, she would have no chance at the position of empress or queen mother.
"Big sister, how can we let you gentlemen stand here? Let's go to the East Garden quickly. The stage is ready and waiting for you."
Wen Xingchen called people over.
Xu was not close to her, but she was very good at saving face.
The stage is well built, and the cakes and tea are also excellent.
Wen Xingchen looked back at Chen Jingting, who was standing behind him, saying a few words to Xiao Bo from time to time.
Retracting her gaze, she led everyone to the East Garden.
The East Garden is spacious, and even after setting up a stage, there is still enough space to accommodate a lot of people.
Men and women sit separately.
Cheng Yan took Gao Qingqing to sit with the women.
I don't know who started it, but someone asked Chen Jingting about the incident of General Tai inviting him to drink tea. Chen Jingting just said it was for tea.
Xiao Qi knew the truth.
He vividly described how Chen Jingting fought against a large number of enemies in the military camp. His story was so wonderful that it was breathtaking for others to listen to.
"What if Chen Jingting doesn't have the ability to fight alone against a large number of people? What if he is just a weak scholar? Will the general kill him?"
Xiao Qi smiled.
"It's hard to say. General Tai has a bad temper. He might actually get himself killed."
Chen Jingting shook his head.
"General Tai is a man of great character. He will not hurt innocent people casually. Moreover, the marriage between the princess and me was arranged by His Majesty. He knows his limits."
Xiao Qi said, "Measure? You don't know General Tai. Not long ago, a soldier disobeyed his orders and he beat him to death."
Xiao Bo asked:
"Xiao Qi, when you first entered, did General Tai give you any trouble?"
Xiao Qi shook his head.
"This prince's kung fu is quite impressive. General Tai values talent and will naturally not make things difficult for this prince."
Besides, she was stuffed in by Wen Xingchen, so General Tai wouldn’t dare to do that.
On the women's side, everyone listened to the men's conversation, which was more interesting than the opera on the stage.
"Why did the general invite Chen Jia Silang to have tea?"
"Could it be that Chen Jia Silang has committed a crime?"
After hearing this, Xiao Qi said, "You don't know, General Tai and the Grand Princess Protector of the Nation are sworn siblings, and the princess calls General Tai uncle. We're all relatives, so having a cup of tea is only natural."
Women grew up in seclusion and don't understand much about such things.
After listening to Xiao Qi's explanation, everyone looked at Wen Xingchen with more envy.
Having an uncle who is an emperor is already enviable, and now he has an uncle who is a general?
What kind of fate is this?
Cheng Yan looked at Gao Qingqing beside her and saw that she was absent-minded. She asked, "Sister Qingqing, seeing that the Prince of Han didn't bother you today, should we just call it quits on this marriage?"
Gao Qingqing bit her lip.
"It's the princess's credit, she must have said something to Xiao Qi."
Gao Qingqing frowned and said, "Sister Yan, don't talk nonsense. Our family really hopes that this marriage can be successful. I... also hope to marry the Prince of Han."
Cheng Yan:.......
Cheng Yan looked up at Xiao Qi who was not far away. He was with several other gentlemen. He was a tall and strong man with a straight face and an innate aristocratic air.
The royal family members had no bad reputation except that they usually liked to play with birds and tease women.
He usually doesn't have a proper job, but he is not short of ways to make a living.
And the starting point is higher than that of ordinary people.
The family background is more than one point higher than the Gao family.
"You weren't... before, so what should we do now? I think the Prince of Han seems..."
"Sister Yan, can you help me for a moment?"
"How to help?"
"I want to talk to Xiao Qi alone."
This is the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion, I'm afraid it's not easy to see.
Cheng Yan said: "If there is a chance, I will keep watch for you."
A few people were chatting about something when the announcement of the arrival of the Princess Protector of the Nation made the small theater lively.
"Greetings to Her Royal Highness, the Princess Protector of the Nation."
Furun came over, followed by a group of people holding gifts.
"Everyone, get up. I hope this princess is not late."
Xiao Bo joked, "Royal sister, if you don't come soon, this birthday will be over."
