Chapter 139: Others spend time in front of and under the moon, while His Highness is in and out of prison
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Jinzhi's heart rose in his throat again.
He usually made jokes, and even in the morning court, when dozens of courtiers participated in the performance at the same time, his expression did not change. However, at this moment, his whole body was a little stiff due to nervousness.
He waited quietly for Chu Huanyan's answer. Every minute and every second of the other party's silence seemed to be extremely long.
He was afraid that Chu Huanyan would refuse.
Even though Chu Huanyan refused at the moment, he still had many ways to always appear in front of her and find ways to make her change her mind.
But doing so is ultimately rude and stalking.
After all, people sometimes have to learn to respect other people's rejection.
But... what if Chu Huanyan really refuses?
Xiao Jin's already fast heartbeat accelerated again.
Although he just hoped that Chu Huanyan would consider him, what he wanted at the moment was an opportunity, not an answer, but what if the other party was not even willing to give him this opportunity?
Xiao Jinzhi became more and more nervous, as if he was pulling a thin rope between two steep peaks. He stepped on the rope halfway, unable to advance or retreat.And Chu Huanyan frowned casually, as if a hurricane had blown up and could blow him away at any time.
Finally, Chu Huanyan spoke.
"Besides Fujin Tower, what other properties does His Highness have?"
"What?" Xiao Jinzhi was stunned, and after regaining consciousness, he immediately spoke, "There are also some restaurants, pharmacies, and various shops, but most of them are secretly located, and not all of them are in the imperial city."
Ever since he became aware of his mother's attitude towards him, if he takes a closer look at his father, it is not difficult to find that he doesn't seem to have much affection for him as a father and son.
So over the years, he has been secretly planning. Although many shops were opened in the name of others, they were all his private property.
"Does His Highness also have other help in the court, but it has not been revealed openly?" Chu Huanyan continued to ask.
"Yes, the more important courtiers probably include the Ministry of Household Affairs..."
"Your Highness, there is no need to go into such detail." Chu Huanyan interrupted Xiao Jinzhi, "I just want to confirm."
As for the specific list, she didn't want to know.
Xiao Jinzhi stopped and did not continue, "Then you..."
"Don't you want a chance, Your Highness?" Chu Huanyan looked at Xiao Jinzhi and curled her lips the next moment, "I just agree, my lord."
"Really?" Peach Blossom's eyes suddenly burst with brilliance, like the strong wind blowing away heavy dark clouds and the occasional moonlight pouring down.
Seeing such a happy look, Chu Huanyan was a little dazed. Isn't it just an opportunity? As for being so happy?
"it is true."
She thought very clearly that Xiao Rongxuan's words at the palace gate today had obviously put her in the same boat as Xiao Jinzhi.
And after what happened to Concubine Xue, even if she wanted to cut off her relationship with Xiao Jinzhi, others wouldn't believe it.
In this case, one cannot bear the reputation in vain without receiving any protection.
Anyway, what Xiao Jinzhi wants is just a chance to consider him, not to marry him immediately or enter into an engagement. Even if she agrees, she will not lose anything.
Xiao Jinzhi's hanging heart completely dropped, the stiffness around his body disappeared completely, and the smile on his face dazzled. This look made Chu Huanyan's eyes tinge with laughter.
When leaving Tianlao, Yun Chen and Xian Yue were already waiting outside, and Chu Huanyan said goodbye to Xiao Jinzhi.
Although Xiao Jinzhi was a little reluctant to leave, he still needed to go back to the Prince's Mansion to bathe and change clothes, so he did not try to persuade him to stay, but watched Chu Huanyan's carriage leave.
Seeing His Highness staring at the carriage with a smile on his face, Qin Li couldn't help but speak.
"Your Highness, it's just an opportunity, are you so happy?" "You don't understand." Xiao Jinzhi shook his head leisurely.
Chu Huanyan may be more defensive and alienated than anyone else. Since she is willing to give herself this opportunity, it means that she still has a good impression of herself in her heart. If not, at least she doesn't hate herself!
As for the rest, he just keeps on working hard.
Xiao Jinzhi was full of confidence, and his whole body was filled with a... sour smell of impending love, which made Qin Li shake his head.
"Your Highness, I really don't understand, but this is the first time I've seen him express his feelings in the prison."
Others spend time in front of and under the moon, and His Highness is in and out of prison, which is considered a novelty.
Xiao Jinzhi was stunned for a moment, and the smile on his face froze, "I was impulsive just now, but now that I think about it, there is something wrong. Otherwise..."
The carriage had completely disappeared. Xiao Jinzhi turned around and discussed with Qin Li.
"Change a different place and confess your love again?"
It just so happened that he felt that his performance in the prison was not very good just now. He was so nervous that he forgot to say some things.
Qin Li looked at His Highness with complicated emotions, "Aren't you afraid of asking again, but Miss Chu changed her mind and refused?"
Xiao Jinzhi: "..." Forget it!
……
After the carriage left Tianlao, it headed towards Ning'an Marquis' Mansion.
Chu Huanyan opened the car curtain, and the autumn wind blew on her face, which already brought a bit of chilly air, making her feel more awake.
But in his mind, he kept recalling what Xiao Jinzhi said just now.
Chu Huanyan felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.
Obviously two days ago, she was still telling Xian Yue that people are most afraid of being sentimental, people's hearts are changeable, and it is difficult to like this thing for a long time, so you should not be gullible.
But just now in the prison, there was a moment when she really believed Xiao Jinzhi.
It was probably because of the nervous look on the other side, which seemed too sincere, so sincere that at that moment she forgot everything she had done in her previous life, and so many betrayals and deceptions.
It seemed that she was just Chu Huanyan, not burdened with the memories of her previous life, but just the Chu Huanyan of this life and this moment.
"Miss, ma'am?"
The crescent moon's call rang in her ears, pulling Chu Huanyan back from her thoughts.
She looked at Crescent Moon, "What's wrong?"
Xianyue shook her head and said worriedly: "I just saw you getting on the carriage and didn't say a word. Miss, is nothing wrong?"
"It's okay." Chu Huanyan shook her head and pulled away from her thoughts.
He withdrew his gaze and glanced out the window again. Just as he was about to lower the car curtain, he suddenly saw a familiar face.
"Stop the car." Chu Huanyan said.
Yunchen immediately stopped his horse and said, "Miss, what's wrong?"
Chu Huanyan did not answer, but looked through the car window at the woman begging on the street.
Unkempt, dirty, and with a broken hand, he was sitting slumped on the street, begging people passing by to be kind.
Xianyue followed Chu Huanyan's gaze and looked carefully for a while before identifying it.
"Miss, isn't that..." Yang!
