The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 194

Zhou Jin came riding from a distance on horseback. The young man had a bright smile on his face and a little white fox in his arms.

He entered the camp and got off his horse, lowered his head and teased the little fox again, the little thing seemed to be spiritual, and arched its furry head against him.

Zhou Jin was holding the rein of the horse with one hand and holding the little fox in the other, and was walking back when he heard a woman calling him not far away.

When he turned his head, he saw a woman in palace attire walking towards him with a lot of entourage.

After the woman approached, Zhou Jin recognized from her clothes that she was a noble princess. He didn't know the princesses of Emperor Ming, so he only asked vaguely and respectfully, "I see Your Highness the Princess."

The woman stepped forward, looked at him and said, "I am Qingyuan, the eighth princess of the Holy Majesty, don't you recognize me?"

Zhou Jin lowered her head and said respectfully: "The eighth princess is a golden branch and jade leaf, and I am a rough person. How lucky I am to know Your Highness the princess."

The eighth princess, Qing Yuan, has taken a fancy to Zhou Jin since she met Zhou Jin outside the imperial study of the Ming Emperor last time. After Meng Guifei learned about her daughter's thoughts, she also asked her daughter-in-law, Princess Jin, to ask Zhou Jin's mother, Lan Ling. The meaning of the princess, at that time, Lanling declined.

Concubine Meng Gui was annoyed when she learned that Lanling did not agree, but for the sake of her daughter's happiness, she was unwilling to force him in marriage, so she kept perfunctory her daughter, only thinking about staying for a while, and her daughter forgot about it stubble.

Lan Ling didn't want to have a relationship with Concubine Meng Gui, so naturally he didn't even mention the Eighth Princess to his son.

Therefore, Qingyuan didn't know that the other party was unwilling, and Zhou Jin didn't even know that she was favored by the eighth princess.

Seeing Zhou Jin up close, Qing Yuan felt that he was more handsome than the glimpse outside the royal study that day, and she was very pleased with him in her heart.

Qing Yuan smiled at Zhou Jin and said, "You don't know me, but I know you."

With a look of surprise on Zhou Jin's face, Qing Yuan continued: "I often go to the Qinzheng Hall of the Emperor Father, and often see you and the Li family's son come to see the Emperor Father."

Zhou Jin replied: "So that's the case."

Qing Yuan glanced at the little white fox in Zhou Jin's arms, and said happily: "Did you hunt this little fox? It looks so cute, can you give her to me?"

Zhou Jin stayed on the mountain all night last night before catching this little thing that came out to look for food early in the morning. After all his troubles, he planned to send him to his sweetheart, Jin Yan, the third girl of Zhen Guogong's mansion. How can you be willing to give it to others at will.

Although this other person is a princess, for a young man who is just in love, the person he loves is the most important thing.

Zhou Jin rolled her eyes and said perfunctorily: "The grandmother in Weichen's family has been in poor health. Some wise people said that a white fox is needed to make medicine to recover. This white fox was hunted by Weichen for the old grandmother. Forgive me I dare not give it to the princess, please forgive me, Your Highness."

Qingyuan is the jewel in the palm of Emperor Ming, she wants nothing, she just uses this white fox to talk to Zhou Jin, she doesn't really like this little beast.

Seeing what Zhou Jin said, Qing Yuan smiled and replied: "It's rare that General Zhou has such filial piety, so naturally I won't blame him."

Zhou Jin said respectfully: "Thank you princess for your understanding, I have something to do, so let's go ahead."

Qing Yuan glanced at Zhou Jinyuan's tall and straight back, with a satisfied smile on the corner of her mouth.

As soon as Li Ling walked halfway with his female relatives, Zhou Jin rushed up to meet him. When he came close, he greeted Li Ling and the others with a bright smile.

Li Ling glanced at the little white fox in his arms, and said casually, "This little jade fox is the most cunning, and you hunted it down?"

Zhou Jin replied: "Yesterday I went hunting with everyone and surrounded this little thing in a pre-set trap, so I caught it."

He quickly glanced at Jin Yan who was at the side, looked at Li Ling and said, "It's useless for a big man to grab such a little thing. Since my cousin is here with his female relatives, let's give it to my cousin, and give it to my sister-in-law and my wife." Cousins, let's play with it."

Xu Wanning didn't know Zhou Jin's thoughts, so she quickly took the little jade fox and gave it to the third girl: "Our third girl likes this cat and dog thing the most. This little jade fox is really cute, so we will take it back." Keep it up and play."

Jin Yan is also a big girl, Zhou Jin intentionally approached her again and again, and she also noticed something.

Jinyan took Xiaoyuhu, blushing and said: "Thank you, Cousin Zhou."

Seeing that the third girl liked her, Zhou Jin grinned and said, "You're welcome, cousin."

Everyone chatted and laughed together to watch the polo match, and the third girl liked the little jade fox very much when she was proud of it. She only cared about teasing the little thing in her arms, and she was also absent-minded while watching a polo match.

Zhou Jin was also absent-minded, but it was the third girl who he quietly glanced at.

Qingyuan, who also came to watch the game, although sitting on the royal seat is not too close to the seat of Zhen Guogong, but the gentle eyes of the little jade fox and Zhou Jin in the arms of the third girl are clear to her from time to time. It fell into her eyes.

After this game, Zhou Jin, Sanniu, and Qingyuan all watched absently.

Especially the eighth princess, Qing Yuan, was so angry that Zhou Jin was so pleased with the third girl of the Duke's Mansion.

Before the game was over, she was annoyed and took the maid back to the imperial tent.

Seeing her daughter returning in a rage, Concubine Meng hurriedly asked, "What is this? Who offended you again?"

Qing Yuan asked angrily: "Concubine Mother, my daughter has taken a fancy to the son of the Zhongshun Hou Mansion, are you caring about me?"

Concubine Meng hurriedly persuaded: "How can the mother concubine not care about it? It's just that you are a princess, how can any man marry you so casually? Your father said that he wants to observe the identity of the Zhou family's eldest son." How about your character ability, if you are a good Bengong and your father, you can rest assured that you will marry him, if you are a bad one, how can you be worthy of Princess Shang."

After listening to Concubine Meng's words, Qing Yuan felt a little more at ease in her heart, she murmured: "My daughter just likes the eldest son of the Zhou family, but the cousin of the Duke of Zhen's mansion seems to want to rob my daughter of him."

Concubine Meng comforted her daughter with a smile and said: "Third Miss of the Duke of Zhen's Mansion is the only daughter of your imperial aunt, but how can she compare to you, you are the most honorable princess, the jewel in the palm of your father's emperor. "

Qing Yuan snorted coldly: "Mother Concubine is right, how can that cousin of the Li family compare to me, and what qualifications does she have to rob me."

After hearing Qing Yuan's words, she understood in her heart.

Since the Zhou family rejected them this time, it is most likely that they have the idea of ​​going with the Duke of Zhen's mansion.It's about her daughter's lifelong affairs, a shrewd concubine like Meng Gui doesn't want her daughter to marry someone who has other people in her heart, although Meng Guifei is annoyed, she won't be arrogant about her daughter's lifelong happiness.

Since the Zhou family doesn't know how to flatter, she just needs to choose another good match for her daughter. She is such a precious daughter, and Meng sincerely hopes that the future son-in-law can hold her daughter in the palm of his hand.

Concubine Meng still perfunctorily said to her daughter: "It is a matter of your life, I and your father should always be cautious, the position of the eldest son of the Zhou family is too low, I always feel that he is not a good match. "

"You are choosing a son-in-law for me. Naturally, I want to choose the one. I have chosen the eldest son of the Zhou family. Tomorrow I will go to ask my father for a marriage."

After all, the little girl's family doesn't understand the relationship between a man and a woman. It needs your love and my willingness to be sweet.

The eighth princess, who had always been used to being arrogant and pampered, left the tent angrily after leaving those words behind.
