Steam Daming: Stop calling me to supervise the country

Chapter 220
"Ah?" Zhu Zhanchang looked at Chen Xinyue in surprise. He didn't expect her to say such a thing when he killed him, and she was actually the concubine that his mother chose for him.

She said these words calmly, with a full smile, pure and happy, I haven't seen her smile like this for a long time.

Yes, I haven't seen her in a long time.

Suddenly interested, Zhu Zhanyi laughed and teased her again: "Then you are my daughter-in-law now, not what I want to do."

Chen Xinyue didn't change her face and added hot tea to him: "Your Highness, you are not married yet, the Crown Princess said that His Royal Highness is the most disobedient to etiquette, so she asked me to be boring in the future, and I have to frame the rules of Your Highness, so as not to He was punished as usual this time."

"Now my reputation, other high-ranking nobles, and the women of Gongbo Hou's mansion have all withdrawn from the election. Are you not afraid of marrying the wrong man and entering the Dragon Lake Tiger's Den?"

"I'm afraid." Chen Xinyue's answer was straightforward and simple: "His Highness is rumored to be insane, but I know His Highness, I know His Highness is not that kind of person."

"You seem very different from before."

"Your Highness is very different from before."

Cold wind and cool, warm tea and hot stove, a little fragrance, two tender feelings.

Zhu Zhanchang asked his own questions over the years: "A few years ago, why did you leave? Every time I communicate with you, I only talk about business matters."

Chen Xinyue's face was slightly red, and she looked at Zhu Zhanchang with bright eyes like stars.

"Why do you look at me like that?"

"If I reveal the truth to His Highness, can His Highness promise not to laugh?"

"I'm a professional and generally don't laugh."

Chen Xinyue blushed and said softly, "I was young at that time, and suddenly I felt that there were beauties around Your Highness, Li Xiaozhu, Zara, and after spending a good night with Princess Siam, I felt that I was superfluous, and I felt jealous in my heart, as if Your Highness He doesn't mean to like me, maybe he just likes flirting with girls."

She said it carefully, but also showed her heart.

Seeing that Zhu Zhanchang was just listening, he continued: "Xinyue is just the daughter of a merchant. Although she adopted the name of the uncle, she can be considered to have a family background, but His Highness is surrounded by princesses of a certain country, and there are others in the palace. So many noble ladies look at it, and they feel withdrawn, a girl like me, Your Highness should not look down on it."

"Then why did you come back this time?"

Chen Xinyue lowered her eyebrows, lowered her gaze and did not look at Zhu Zhanchang. She looked at the tea in her cup, rippling slightly, and was at a loss. She put her slender and tender hand on her guqin and played it lightly unconsciously.

"It's...that's..."

"What is it?"

Chen Xinyue gathered up her courage and said, "I thought that Your Highness would not care about me, but His Highness kept sending letters. I thought I was not worthy of His Highness. In the future, I would find a talented scholar of the right household to marry a husband and wife and teach children. But every time I open His Highness's letter, I want to see His Highness again, but I can't wipe my face, because I am afraid that His Highness thinks that I want to stick to His Highness and climb a high branch, so I will refrain from seeing you and not replying to your letter."

"In recent years, there have always been people who have come to ask for relatives. There are scholars in the dynasty, noble clansmen, and young masters of the Houfu. Just because my heart is full of His Royal Highness, I can't tolerate others."

Girls of this era want to say these words, one can imagine how much courage Chen Xinyue mustered to tell Zhu Zhanchang a little bit of her thoughts.

Her eyes were flushed red, with seven points of love and three points of shyness, dripping into the teacup, with shallow ripples reflecting on her face.

The cold wind is cold, the frost is white, you and the winter snow are pure white, and the girl's mind is enough to break free from the frost and snow, and turn into a spring breeze.

"You don't even dare to come to see me, how dare you say this today?"

"Since I found out that His Highness was going to choose a concubine, I felt melancholy and unhappy every day. After thinking about it, I gathered up my courage and became discouraged. After going back and forth for a few days, I was not reconciled, so I asked my grandmother to find someone to paint a portrait for me. I specially made the paintings look better, and I came here with a thick skin."

"Since you have already participated with a thick skin, why don't you be thicker and tell Your Highness what you have in mind today, if His Highness really doesn't like me, according to His Highness's character, even if you go beyond the etiquette, you will not marry me. If Your Highness still has a heart for me, even if it is difficult, I am willing to marry Your Highness."

The most difficult thing in the world is beauty.

"I have no military power now, and my reputation has been smeared by the officials. Everyone is shouting and beating. Now that I have been released, I am afraid that I will not be able to regain my glory in the future. Those noble ladies who wanted to marry me before. They all withdrew, in case I will be rejected by His Majesty in the future, and I will become a powerless and powerless county king in the future, and my life will be difficult, have you ever thought about retreating?" Zhu Zhanchang asked curiously.

Chen Xinyue's eyes were bright, and there were still some crystal tears in her eyes, and she shook her head vigorously: "What I like is not the Prince of Pearl River, what I like is not the Golden Seal of the Tiger Talisman of the Si Fan Dynasty, and what I like is not the cleverness that everyone praises. The Fifth Emperor, I just like a boy who was a bit playful when we first met but jumped into the river to save me without thinking."

"Also, Your Highness, I have money, and life will not be difficult."

The girl smiled happily with tears in her eyes. At this moment, she said all her thoughts, and she felt much more relaxed.

Zhu Zhanchang's heart warmed. He was scolded like that before. If it wasn't sincere, which noble would be willing to marry his daughter to a lost county king, a bad one would be irreversible, and an emperor who was hated and rejected by the emperor. Sun still doesn't know what will happen next.

Only through adversity can the true feelings be seen, and Zhu Zhanchang's somewhat depressed mood suddenly became clear.

If my wife is her, it should be fine.

"You were so jealous when you were a child, so aren't you jealous now?"

"Yes." Chen Xinyue said without hesitation: "A little bit."

A lot of things can't be entangled with yourself, you have to think about it.

Zhu Zhanchang laughed: "Play another song for me."

"What do you want to hear, Your Highness?"

"You can play whatever you are best at."

The sound of Chen Xinyue's piano resumed, and Zhu Zhansang listened to the tea. Halfway through hearing it, Zhu Zhansang suddenly stood up and walked behind Chen Xinyue, reached out and hugged him to the side, completely hugging it.

Chen Xinyue turned pale with fright, and the maid not far away was so frightened that she jumped up.

"Your Highness, what are you going to do?"

"I hug my wife, why not."

Chen Xinyue's cheeks reddened: "Your Highness, there are still two days before we get married. I also ask Your Highness to go beyond the etiquette system, so that Xinyue can be the Princess Princess of His Royal Highness the Prince of Zhujiang County."

Hearing this, Zhu Zhanchang put Chen Xinyue down, but held hands. He finally understood why he didn't want to marry a concubine he had never met before.

He can play tricks and tricks in the officialdom, weigh the pros and cons, and intrigue. The only thing is marriage, because it is purely because of love, not family marriage, and a tool for clan clans to hold together.

He didn't want to use his marriage for his own benefit.

If you can get it as you wish, you will be lucky in three lifetimes.
