Jade Without Fragrance Chapter 7

  Chapter 7 Rejection

  Cheng Shu looked weird for a moment, and then returned to nature: "This is the only one. Oh, I'm relieved to confirm that the second cousin can speak. I still have something to do. I'll come back to the second cousin to celebrate."

  The second cousin heard those rumors, what if she was so angry that she couldn't speak? But he is not good at lying, so it is better to go first.

  Cheng Shu ran away in a hurry, almost bumping into the maid who was walking towards Luoyingju.

   "Watch your son."

  Cheng Shu swept away the servants behind the maid who were holding boxes and picking boxes, and asked in confusion, "You are—"

   "Madam asked to bring these gifts to the Second Girl's Court."

   Aunt hurts this cousin a lot, Cheng Shu is clear, he is no longer curious and walks away quickly.

  The little maid at the gate of the courtyard saw the maid and reported, "Girl, sister Fangfei from Madam's courtyard is here."

  Fangfei walked to Wen Hao and bowed her knees: "Second girl, Madam ordered the maid and others to bring these gifts to you."

   "For me?" Wen Hao glanced over the boxes and cages, somewhat surprised.

  The mother's dowry is generous, and the girls' favorite gadgets are sent to her and her sister's courtyard from time to time. But in my impression, I didn't send so many things at this time.

  Wen Hao was surprised that it was not these things, but the difference from the previous life.

   Fangfei explained with a smile: "It's a thank you gift from Prince Jing's mansion to the second girl. Madam ordered it to be delivered directly to the second girl."

   "Where's my mother?"

   "I'm talking to the steward from the palace."

  Wen Hao nodded and waited for Fangfei to leave, staring at the gifts and thinking.

   If it is different, it is still on Prince Jing.

   Prince Jing took the matter over and relieved her, so that Princess Jing sent someone to send a thank you gift.

  Yesterday—Wen Hao carefully recalled every detail.

   Yes, she couldn't help shouting when she fell off the wall, but in her previous life she fell directly in front of Prince Jing with only a thud.

   So, did Prince Jing react differently because he heard her shout?

   And when she was dumb, she turned a blind eye - Wen Hao inevitably flashed this thought, touched Lin Xiaohua's head and smiled.

  In any case, Prince Jing has helped her, and she can't be so demanding of others.

  Wen Hao figured out the reasons for Prince Jing's different reactions, and no longer took this matter to heart.

  In the evening, King Jing walked leisurely to Princess Jing's place, and Princess Jing brought the matter up.

   "You mean, you want to marry Miss Wen for Shuo'er?" Prince Jing was obviously shocked by Princess Jing's words, and his eyes widened.

   "Your Highness, keep your voice down." Princess Jing sneered at him, "Isn't this discussed with Your Highness? Besides, it depends on the intention of the Wen family."

   King Jing scratched his head, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while: "Shuo'er is the prince, so you can't be careless in marrying the prince's concubine."

   "Then let's pick again?"

   "Thousands of thousands of people choose one who is particularly happy. I am afraid that one will feel unsatisfactory." King Jing calmed down and smiled bitterly.

   These princes were more than ten thousand people when they were in the fief, and it is good to say that the emperor was reluctant to bear these brothers. In fact, he wanted them to live under his nose.

  The emperor invaded the capital as a vassal and seized the throne back then, so he naturally wanted to eliminate this hidden danger.

   Even now, the emperor's suspicion of these princes has not diminished.

   "Do you think Wen Er girl is good, or is it Shuo Er's meaning?"

   Princess Jing sold her son without hesitation: "Shuo'er thinks Wen Er was born beautiful."

   "Superficial!" King Jing was about to despise his son, when he received a half-smiling look from Princess Jing, and smiled shyly, "It's true."

   He also fell in love with the beautiful princess at first sight and insisted on marrying him, for which he was reprimanded by his father.

   "Wen's family is neither high nor low, but it is suitable. It is rare that Shuo'er is satisfied. The princess will arrange for someone to ask the Wen family's meaning in a few days."

   In the next few days, Wen Haowo will stay in Luoying Residence to raise his feet and prepare for the impending crisis.

   On this day, Lin Shi almost came to Luoyingju at a trot.

   "Where are you girls?"

   "The girl is in the study—"

   After listening to the maid's words, Mrs Lin walked into the study like a breeze.

  Wen Hao pulled the brocade cloth to cover the square box, looking at Lin Shi who was short of breath, a little surprised: "Is there something urgent, mother?"

   Lin strode up to Wen Hao, staring at her daughter.

  Wen Hao raised his hand and touched his cheek: "Could it be that there is something dirty on your daughter's face?"

   Could it be that the contents of the square box were seen by the mother?

  Shi Lin sat straight down, looking like a dream: "Ah, a strange thing happened."

   "What's the matter? If the mother sells her off again, the daughter will be anxious."

   "Just now someone from King Jing's mansion came to inquire about your marriage."

  Wen was stunned.

   "Marriage? Prince Jing's Mansion?"

   "Prince Jing's residence intends to beg you to marry Prince Jing's heir." Lin was not someone who could hide his words, so he said it in one breath.

   "Impossible!" Wen Hao blurted out.

"Yeah, Mother also thinks it's impossible!" Lin Shi responded when she met her daughter's gaze, "Mother didn't say that Ah Hao is not worthy of Prince Jing, but we are more than enough to match Prince Jing. It's just too sudden. The princess has a lot of contacts, but I didn't see that she meant it at all..."

  Wen Hao couldn't understand it, but there was a very important question: "Mother, you won't agree?"

   Lin shook his head: "How can the other party just mention it and answer it, I always have to ask what you mean."

  Wen Hao felt sour and held Lin's hand.

   Having a mother's pain is different in the end, even if the one who came to propose marriage is the palace, the first thing that comes to mind is her mood.

   "Well, what do you think of this marriage?"

   Wen Hao saw the expectation in Lin's eyes, and was obviously happy to see this marriage come to fruition.

   It's just that she was doomed to disappoint her mother.

   "My daughter feels bad."

   If she wants the relatives she cares about to avoid the tragedy, as long as she exposes her father's true face, it's just a family matter.

   King Jing's mansion is different.

   She returned to the capital and learned that Prince Jing's mansion had been beheaded for treason.

  If she married into Prince Jing's mansion, she would drag her relatives into this quagmire.

   "Ah Hao, what do you think is wrong?" Although Lin didn't mean to force her daughter, she couldn't help but ask.

   Although Prince Jing didn't go out much, because her family was close to Prince Jing's mansion, she had seen it many times. She was born handsome and did not say anything, and her behavior was steady, without the arrogance of royal children.

   "Prince Jing...I don't seem to be in good health." Wen Hao frowned.

  Lin was startled, and held Wen Hao's hand tightly: "Ah, you still think carefully, mother almost ignored this!"

  Prince Jing fell seriously ill when he entered Beijing, and his health was not good. In case he couldn't be with his wife in vain—

   Ah Hao, you can't marry a sick child!

   Lin shi secretly said that it was very dangerous, and turned back and declined the Jingwang mansion.

   Princess Jing never expected that the Wen residence would refuse, and was so angry that she didn't even eat breakfast.

   "Call the prince to come."

   An unfilial son really doesn't give her a long face!
