Chapter 94 (Overhaul)
by"There is no distinction between right and wrong!" The fourth prince pointed at Jiang Rao, "She was the one who let the bird catch me first!"
Rong Ting's eyes fell on the fourth prince's fingers, and he hummed lazily, "Why do I look at it, is the fourth brother scaring the wren in her arms?"
The fourth prince's face turned blue with anger, "You just came here, what did you see?"
"I just saw it." Rong Ting didn't reason with him, turned around and hugged the wren from Jiang Rao's arms, holding it gently, and said slowly, "This wren belongs to Concubine Yun Gui. pets?"
Jiang Rao nodded hurriedly.
She lowered her gaze and looked at Rong Ting.
Although his back was thin, it already gave her a sense of happiness that she was hugging and being protected by her golden thighs.
Very reassuring.
The fourth prince choked.
This myn was raised by Concubine Yun Gui?
If it hurts Concubine Yun Gui's na, what can do? If that delicate beauty cried to his father, he would not have a good time for a while.
"I'll spare you all this time!" The fourth prince was angry and annoyed, and told someone to let Ming Shao go, with a red scratch on his face, and left angrily.
Rong Ting looked at his back, his thin lips parted slightly, and his voice was extremely low, "Bug."
...
Jiang Rao ran to Ming Shao's side, "Are you all right?"
"Are you alright, girl?" Ming Shao was a little startled, but she was not injured, and shook her head, "This servant is alright."
"Year by year."
Behind him, Rong Ting called her small words, his voice was a little eager, Jiang Rao turned his head, and Xiao Fugui was stepping on Rong Ting's shoulders, turning the young man who was dealing with the fourth prince with a calm face just now into a very embarrassed, stiff body and dare not dare Move, as if afraid of throwing the little myna off.
Jiang Rao couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly went back and carried the little wealthy who recognized the birth back into her arms.
Rong Ting coughed, and Huai Qing came forward knowingly, holding a wooden box and handing it to Jiang Rao.
"Girl, this is what His Highness Ninth brought back to you from Yun Ling."
Jiang Rao took the wooden box, and Xiao Fugui handed it to Ming Shao to hold it. She opened the wooden box, and there was a dazzling array of colorful clay puppets, mud whistles, bamboo dragonflies, and some gadgets she couldn't recognize at all. Boy, it's all little toys.
Jiang Rao was stunned for a moment.
She dreamed that he gave her something.
Ah, no, it's not him, it's Jiu Ye.
It wasn't a gift, but after he came back from a long trip, there were suddenly more things in her house.
The clay doll, which he brought back, was placed firmly in her house.
She didn't like that doll, and even found it scary.
Jiang Rao was in a daze, Rong Ting took the box from her hand, his expression didn't look good, and he said sadly, "If you don't like it, just throw it away."
"Eh?" She hurriedly grabbed the box from him, held it in her arms, and lowered her head, "I like it."
She emphasized it again, "I really like it."
It was only then that she understood that whether she liked it or not was not about her own preferences, but more about who gave the things.
"There will be a market every few days there." Rong Ting held a sleeve furnace with plum blossoms in his hands and looked at her, "Every time I see something delicious or fun, I will think of you."
Jiang Rao knew how fun the market in the village outside was. With a few small coins, she could buy delicious biscuits and fun toys, but when she thought of the lively and fun scene of the village market, she suddenly felt a little subtle. of displeasure.
She was worried every day in Jinling, counting the fallen leaves with her fingers and waiting for him to come back, but he actually ran to the market?
Humph.
No letters were sent to her.
Rong Ting asked her, "I have been away for more than four months, have you ever thought about me?"
Jiang Rao said coldly, "No."
Suddenly, there was a clear and slow voice, but the tone was a bit strange, with a high-pitched female voice, "Yunling, Yunling."
"When will he be back?"
Jiang Rao turned around in astonishment, Xiao Fugui was standing on Ming Shao's arm, with a bird's beak, speaking in her tone.
After teaching him idioms for several months, he hadn't learned them yet, but now he has learned even her sighs. After she finished learning the tongue, she gave a soft "huh".
Ming Shao looked at her in surprise, "Girl, Xiao Fugui can speak."
Jiang Rao: "..."
There was a faint laugh in her ears, it sounded like Rong Ting's voice, Jiang Rao blushed, "It didn't learn my words."
His eyes were like stars, and he said with a smile: "I didn't ask, did I learn what you said."
"..."
Jiang Rao choked on her face and flushed completely. She squatted on the ground and covered her head for a long time. She stood up tremblingly, pretending that what just happened didn't happen, and wanted to turn the matter over.
"Who told you to stay in Yunling for too long." She pouted and found herself going down the steps.
But her face flushed, and she gave Xiao Fugui an annoyed look.
It hurts in vain, and will dismantle her.
The little girl muttered in pieces, her white cheeks bulged and sunken, looking particularly cute.
Rong Ting shook his head and said helplessly, "I don't either.
wanted to stay so long. "
But as long as he doesn't stay until the last moment and the queen blocks his way, he can't justifiably get what he deserves.
Jiang Rao was just a messenger, she was not really angry, she told Ming Shao to hold the little rich and famous who was addicted to talking a little away, and asked Rong Ting curiously, "Just now, did you really see the Fourth Prince scare me? Mynah?"
In fact, it wasn't that the Fourth Prince scared Xiao Fugui.
It was he who was frightened by Xiao Fugui, and then scratched his forehead by Xiao Fugui who she threw in the past.
Her original intention was to let Xiao Fugui scratch his eyes.
Who made the fourth prince look at her with a squinted face, making her feel uncomfortable.
"I didn't see it, I made it up." Rong Ting was honest in front of her, "Anyway, you're right."
Jiang Rao: "..."
So unreasonable.
But she likes what to do.
Is that what it feels like to be protected by golden thighs?
Rong Ting looked at her bright eyes, as if he had taken advantage of some small advantage, the corners of his lips also twitched, and all his emotions were indulged in his deep eyes.
No one could see the displeasure in his heart.
"Fang Cai, what did my fourth brother talk to you about?"
He didn't know why his fourth brother approached her.
He didn't even know if his fourth brother had a marriage contract with her.
"He told me that you were rewarded for Yunling's affairs." Jiang Rao remembered the look in the eyes of the Fourth Prince looking at her, and said angrily, "He changed the script and said, Lord Chen is very satisfied with you, and thinks that marry your daughter."
Jiang Rao looked at Rong Ting, his expression became hesitant to speak.
She paused, spied something from his expression, and was silent for a while.
Then he asked hesitantly, "What the fourth prince said... is it true?"
Rong Ting nodded.
Jiang Rao's throat choked, and her face became ugly.
Chen Bing's daughter, Chen Congyun.
A well-known talented girl in Jinling, she is proficient in all things piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
She subconsciously thought about her fault, but her mind went blank, and after a long silence, she said, "That girl... she's fine."
Rong Ting kept looking at her.
Seeing her face changed from shock to confusion, and then when he heard her words, his eyes dimmed immediately, "Do you really think so?"
His jawline was taut, his eyes were as cold as a pool, and his blade was as cold as a blade.
Jiang Rao had never seen such an expression on his face.
The news was so sudden that she couldn't sort out her emotions, and said in a dull voice, "People in Jinling say that she is knowledgeable, gentle and considerate, and is a good candidate for a wife."
There was a very small voice in her heart, saying there, no, Chen Congyun can't.
But that voice was silenced by another voice.
She had been a little concerned that after he entered the Ministry of Industry, he would be excluded by the Xu family's henchmen. If he could marry Chen Bing's daughter, Chen Bing would definitely not let him be wronged.
"Yes." Rong Ting suddenly sneered, "I heard that Miss Chen is very good."
His voice was hoarse, with a thin layer of anger in it, "But I don't want it."
The ends of his eyes were a little red. If Jiang Rao looked at him at this moment, he would feel that the expression on his face was no different from the look on his face when Jiu Ye was angry in her dream.
Why do you want to push him out.
Jiang Rao was a little surprised and looked up at Rong Ting.
Her eyes were clear, like a clear spring.
There were surprises in it that she might not have realized.
When she raised her eyes to look at him, Rong Ting's eyes burned with anger and uncontrollable manic depression, all of which were hidden.
There was sadness in his heart, but a look of grievance appeared on his face, "I don't want to have anything to do with her."
"But you haven't seen her before..."
"I don't see it, I don't want to." Rong Ting's eyelashes blinked slowly, and his darkened eye sockets looked gloomy and depressed, but his voice was stubborn, "I know what I want. ."
Jiang Rao was bewitched by his gloomy voice, and his voice softened, "What do you want?"
"It's better to be about the same age as me, the eldest daughter in the family, with loving parents, and a younger brother, who was born in Jinling, but grew up in other places, likes sweets, and is confused." He said calmly, "It's only her. , I am willing."
Jiang Rao didn't react for a while.
With patience, she counted the conditions he said, one by one, and screened them among the noble ladies in Jinling that she knew.
They are about the same age, the eldest daughter in the family, loving parents, and a younger brother, which is easy to say.
No one was born in Jinling but grew up elsewhere.
Not to mention sleepiness and sweetness, how did she know which of them was sleepy and sweet?
There is no such girl in Jinling as he said.
She tilted her head and glanced at him, hesitating to say anything.
After counting again, I was even more helpless, so I had to ask him, "Only if you find such a person, would you be willing?"
"Only her."
His tone was firm, and it seemed like he already had a crush.
Jiang Rao bit her lips lightly, she put down her hand, shook her head, her pupils were bright, and she retorted seriously, "But there is no one like you said."
Rong Ting shook his head.
He meant something and said slowly, "Think about it."
His voice was low and steady, and he repeated the conditions he just said, "A little younger than me, but not too much younger, parents are loving and harmonious, she is the eldest daughter in the family, it is best to have a younger brother..."
Jiang Rao listened and listened. This time, before he finished speaking, he heard something was wrong.
When he came back to his senses, his breathing was disturbed, and he pointed at himself in surprise, "Me?"
Rong Ting made a "hmm" sound with a smile.
"It's you."
The beautiful red mole in his eyes was illuminated by the faintly white sunlight. If there were any viewers, they would all be dazzled. The glazed pupils were as clear as water, "It can only be you."
Jiang Rao was a little dazed, "Why?"
"You really want to know?"
The greed in his heart was about to swallow him whole.
He wanted her to belong to him completely, to share those ugly emotions with him—jealousy, greed, monopoly.
What is Pei Songyu, and what is Chen Congyun? What is his fourth brother?
In his world, there are only him and her.
Jiang Rao nodded, she seldom said anything against her heart, what was in her heart was what she thought, and looked up at him, "I want to know."
Rong Ting lowered his eyes and looked at her little hands that were slightly clenched into fists, as if he was very nervous to answer.
She didn't want to know why.
Why?
Because he was selfish and greedy, he wanted to confine her to a place where no one else could see her, and wanted her to belong to him alone, and he would only belong to her.
He has never lived under the sun, his nature is extremely evil, and he can't learn the morals and ethics of the world. Die together.
These thoughts were rooted in his mind, and he couldn't wave them away. He couldn't drop the knife that hurt her, but he yearned for the same response from her all the time.
Obsession has penetrated deep into the bone marrow, to the point of being twisted and morbid.
If she said all this, what would she be afraid of?
He won't let her know.
"Because I can't trust anyone else."
He didn't have a long speech, and when he called her in small words, his voice was so humble that it trembled, "Nian Nian."
"Besides you, I have no one to trust."
"I just want to marry someone I trust."
He was a hunter who carefully laid traps, a demon who used lies and disguises to deceive her kindness and sympathy, but also a poor creature who crawls on her heels, begging her to give him a trace of pity.
Jiang Rao didn't speak for a long time.
He said he had no one to be trusted except her.
When she first dreamed, she was afraid that he was terribly frightened, and she would never have thought that in the future, that high, indifferent and authoritarian man would be as docile as a new-born sparrow, and looked at her with trust written all over his eyes.
"Don't push me to others." Rong Ting's low voice sounded beside her ear again, his pupils were shining, his wet eyes looked very pitiful, "After I left the palace, there are people in the palace. The news said that the queen wanted to point me to a marriage."
Before Jiang Raohuan came out of his thoughts, he was caught off guard by his words.
She paused for a moment and said in astonishment, "The queen wants someone to watch over you?"
Rong Ting nodded slowly and firmly.
She definitely couldn't watch the queen arrange the eyeliner by his side.
His eyelashes were trembling slightly, and the sun was shining on them, "I don't know what to do."
"How could this be." Jiang Rao walked back and forth.
She never seemed to have thought that Rong Ting would get married.
In her dream, she had dreamed of him when he was twenty-six years old, when everyone else's children and children were already twins, he was always alone, even on the New Year's Eve when thousands of families were reunited, he was alone, staring at the snow outside the window , with a straight back and Chinese clothes, the back looks completely lonely, but it is difficult to approach, as if it will go on like this for a lifetime.
She paced a few steps in place, stopped suddenly, and asked him, "Then why didn't you agree to Lord Chen?"
If he agreed to Chen Bing first, then Empress Jiahe would not be able to propose marriage for him.
This is ready-made driftwood.
"Nian Nian, it's not what you think." Rong Ting lowered his head, "Besides, I said, no matter who I am, I can't do it."
His tone was harsh and a little flustered, "I don't know what to do."
There are no clouds in the sky, the sun is shining brightly, and there is not even the slightest haze.
Jiang Rao's eyes seemed to be covered with ashes.
She pinched her palm with her fingers, "don't panic, don't be afraid."
She lowered her head, thought about it for a long time, and finally turned her eyes to him slowly.
"Lord Chen Bing's daughter can't do it, what if it was me?"
