Princess of the auxiliary country

Chapter 5; Boring loss

Huo Jingzhi reacted immediately when he saw this, but his expression was a little bitter.

He opened his mouth several times, but in the end nothing came out, so he could only sigh.

"She is also an ungrateful person. I have seen her flirting with the prince more than once in the mansion."

"This shows that the two of them have been secretly in love for a long time, and who is Zhao Yan'er's father?"

"He is also the Duke of the country, and he is also the Minister of War. In comparison, it is self-evident who the prince will choose."

I have to say that although Huo Jinyan is only 20 years old, his brain is really very good.

Even if you don't pretend to hear some secrets like Huo Junyao, you can still analyze them by yourself.

Princess Ningyang remained silent.

As a royal princess, is she stupid?

It's obviously impossible to be stupid.

But she trusted Zhao Yaner too much. After all, this was the girl she had watched grow up and taught for many years. She confidently believed that the other party would not do such a bad thing.

It's a pity that these are just her own opinions. Now that the facts are in front of her, how can she not face them?
To be honest, the prince's and Zhao Yan'er's calculations were not very clever.

As long as the causes and consequences are clear, it is actually easy to see through.

However, it was such a clumsy calculation, but because they lost the opportunity, they were now helpless.

First of all, the attitude of the prince next to him can be seen from the words he said. Most of what he said is true. Although Huo Junyao's status is noble, his experience of living outside for more than ten years in the past is a flaw.

In addition, the prince said it, and the gap in status can easily mislead people's trust.

One party is the prince, and the other party is just a village girl living in the countryside. Whose words are more credible?

In this way, they will be powerless if they want to refute, and the more they try to refute, the more trouble they will get and the darker they will get.

Secondly, Zhao Yaner was the first to play the card of sacrificing herself to save others.

At that time, Huo Junyao fell into the Taiye Pond and almost drowned. Zhao Yaner jumped in to save her regardless of her own safety. Even after pushing Huo Junyao to the shore, she almost lost her life due to loss of strength.

After this was revealed, the focus of those outside was first on how she sacrificed herself to save others. Few people would think about why she appeared in Taipei when she should be attending the palace banquet in Fengqi Palace. liquid pool.

Nowadays, everything about Taiye Lake has been spread outside. The prince's distorted remarks are at the forefront, and Zhao Yan'er's righteous act of sacrificing himself to save others is behind.

The people in Duke Ji's mansion couldn't refute it even if they wanted to.

The former will become darker and darker, and the latter will be labeled as ungrateful, which will only make the reputation of Huo Junyao and Duke Ji's mansion worse and worse.

"How come our poor Yaoyao meets such ungrateful people?"

Princess Ningyang's eyes turned red again as she spoke.

Next to him, Duke Ji Guo Jingzhi also sighed repeatedly, his face full of the bitterness of having his teeth knocked out and blood swallowed.

Only Huo Jinyan looked grim.

"You can keep the green hills without worrying about having firewood. If they dare to plot against my little sister and Duke Ji's mansion like this, I will make them pay the price."

"Yes, we can only suffer the consequences this time, but we can't just let it go."

Princess Ningyang immediately stood up again and turned to look at Aunt Zhao who was waiting for her.

"I'm notifying you that from today onwards, Zhao Yan'er is not allowed to enter the gate of Duke Ji's mansion. Anyone who dares to let her in will be killed with a cane."

Aunt Zhao quickly stepped back.

Princess Ningyang turned to look at her husband Huo Jingzhi again.

"And you, from today on, stay away from the prince. Since he looks down on us so much, there is no need for us to stick to him."

Huo Jingzhi nodded. Although he didn't say much just now, he was no less angry than his wife and son in front of him.

Some words don't need to be said out loud, as long as they are in the heart.

The prince and Zhao Yan'er framed his daughter like this. If he didn't get it back, he would be in vain as a father.

"Your Royal Highness, the eldest princess, the Duke, the young master, and the third young lady are here." A slave came in from outside and bowed to the three of them.

"Ah? Yaoyao is here, please come in quickly."

Although Princess Ningyang said to come in, she had already taken steps to walk outside.

"Yao Yao, why are you here? Didn't I tell you to have a good rest in your room?"

"Does your head still hurt?"

At the door, Princess Ningyang held Huo Junyao's arm and asked with distress and concern on her face.

"I just took medicine and the pain is gone."

Looking at her mother's red eyes and the concern that was about to overflow from her eyes, Huo Junyao felt warm in her heart.

In her previous life, she grew up in an orphanage. Apart from feeling this kind of strong and pure concern from the dean, she rarely felt it from others.

Seeing the concern in Princess Ningyang's eyes at this time, she was in a trance for a moment, as if she saw the eyes of the dean in her previous life.

Unconsciously, she felt a little closer to Princess Ningyang as her mother.

"As long as it doesn't hurt, if it does, remember to tell your mother and she will find a doctor for you."

Princess Ningyang helped Huo Junyao walk into the main hall.

"Yao Yao, does your head still hurt? Come to the side and sit down to rest."

As soon as he entered the main hall, he bumped into Huo Jingzhi and his second brother Huo Jinyan who were waiting outside.

"Little sister, second brother will help you."

"Thank you dad and second brother for your concern."

"Silly girl, how can the family thank you?"

A gentle smile appeared on Huo Jingzhi's face.

"What are you doing standing there stupidly? Hurry up and ask the servants to get your daughter a cup of tea and some snacks."

Princess Ningyang glared at Huo Jingzhi impatiently.

Then he looked at Huo Junyao and immediately smiled gently.

"Your father has such a meek temper. He always needs someone to direct him so that he knows what he should do."

Huo Junyao smiled and said, "Dad is a scholar. Although he does things slowly and slowly, he is very reliable and warm."

This is her intuitive feeling about this cheap dad.

From the time they met in the mountain village, to the time they got together all the way back, and spent more than a month together, Huo Jingzhi was a very gentle person, also known as a warm man in the later world.

"It's not slow or slow, you can really make him feel safe."

Although Princess Ningyang had a look of disgust on her face, her eyes slowly turned into a smile.

Obviously he agrees with his daughter's assessment.

"Little sister, why are you here? Is there something wrong?"

Huo Jinyan next to him asked in a gentle voice.

Hearing this, Princess Ningyang also looked at Huo Junyao with curiosity in her eyes.

"I know all the rumors outside."

As soon as she said this, the smiles on the faces of Princess Ningyang and Huo Jinyan froze, but they recovered quickly.

"Yao Yao, let's not listen to those people outside talking nonsense."

"Second brother will seek justice for you, little sister. Don't think too much about it. Second brother, mother and father all believe in you."

Seeing that the two of them were obviously very angry but still suppressing their anger and not wanting to scare her, Huo Junyao felt warm in her heart.
