Rebirth of Noble Menjiao

Chapter 81 Sincerely Seeking Marriage

Mingyi looked away, squatted down, and was about to pick up the hand stove that fell on the snow. Unexpectedly, a hand stretched out from the thorn and took a step faster than her, and their hands were almost touching.

But when Mingyi saw the Canaan wood ring engraved with a Bodhi leaf on her hand, her pupils shrank in shock, she subconsciously retracted her hand and stepped back sharply. She was so hasty that she stumbled and almost fell down. Fortunately, there was a strong arm behind her that stopped her. However, just this stop almost made her jump up and fall directly to the ground.

"Be careful!" A cold and deep voice sounded in her ears, forcefully pushing her heart that had jumped into her throat back into her cavity. It was Xue Lin. He didn't know when he came. When Mingyi was about to fall, he helped her up at the right time, but it was only one hand. When she stood firm, his hand on her waist was instantly removed. Going back, he turned his back and looked calmly at the man wearing the Canaan wood ring who had picked up Mingyi's stove, "Mr. Wei, thank you!"

That person was indeed Wei Xuazhi, and it was precisely because he recognized the finger that Mingyi had such a big reaction.

Wei Xuanzhi had a wry smile on his face, "I originally wanted to do a favor, but I didn't know that I had good intentions and did something bad. Instead, I scared the princess. I'm so sorry!" When he spoke, his eyes were very sincere. , looked at Mingyi apologetically.

Mingyi's heartbeat had calmed down, and she was secretly annoyed that she had overreacted. Hearing this, she smiled slightly and said sheepishly, "I made a fuss at the moment. It's my turn to apologize to Young Master Wei." After saying that, he had already made a fuss. He knelt down towards Wei Xunzhi and said, "I'm sorry, Third Young Master Wei, and... thank you so much!" When he finished speaking, he glanced back, and Wei Yu behind him stepped forward knowingly and took the bag from Wei Xunzhi's hand. Only hand stove.

"No, it's nothing to worry about." After hearing Mingyi's words, Wei Xuanzhi finally softened the awkward look on his face. He gave the hand stove without leaving any more, and he found an excuse to walk away.

Mingyi watched his back, the smile on her face disappeared from her lips, "Weiyu! Throw it away!"

Weiyu was stunned, and it took her a moment to react. When she met Mingyi's cold eyes, her heart froze. She didn't dare to say anything except to do as she was told. She said "yes" and threw the hand stove aside.

The expression on Mingyi's face just turned brighter. She looked up and saw Xue Lin staring at her with a heavy look. She was not afraid and smiled openly, "I hate him. I will never touch anything he touches again." need."

"The Third Young Master of Wei that you hate is a very important person. However, in just a few days, he has gained His Majesty's favor. His Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess also have many praises for him. Even the nobles in this palace have no one." Say something bad about him." Xue Lin hummed softly.

Mingyi frowned when she heard this. In her impression, Wei Xuazhi was an emperor who held the power of life and death. He was suspicious, uncertain, and cruel...nothing worthy of others' liking.

"He must be pretending. Didn't the people who stared at him notice anything?"

Xue Lin shook his head, "There's nothing unusual about it."

Not only did Mingyi feel uneasy when she heard this, her eyebrows furrowed even more tightly.

There was silence between the two. After a while, Xue Linfang said, "Let's go! It's getting late, let's go to Shuying Pavilion!"

Mingyi nodded subconsciously, before taking a step forward, she glanced at his empty waist, then remembered something and said hurriedly, "Wait!" and stretched out her hand towards Wei Yu.

Weiyu understood and handed over a box that had been in his hand.

Mingyi took it and handed it to Xue Lin, "If I don't see you in the palace today, I would like to visit your house soon. Wangjing City is not as good as Northwest, and it would be awkward to carry a wine bag with you. , but you can’t be an alcoholic but don’t have any alcohol to drink, here, I’ll give you this!”

Xue Lin took the box and opened it, only to see that the box contained an exquisite silver wine flask, only the size of a palm, with carved patterns and jade on it. It was more of a decoration than a wine flask. . He raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "You suddenly gave me something. Do you think you have something against me? Or do you want something?" Mingyi's eyes flickered subconsciously, "What's wrong with you? Son? Are you still suspicious of this or that when I give you something? This is just a New Year's gift, if you don't want it, just give it back to me!" With that, he reached out to grab it.

However, Xue Lin turned sideways and dodged, took out the wine bottle from the box, weighed it in his hand, "It's flashy, but... it's better than nothing. Thank you!"

Mingyi took back her hand and snorted softly, but she was ignored in the end.

Xue Lin hung the wine bottle on his waist and sighed, "It's just that I didn't prepare any New Year's gifts for you."

"Isn't this already there?" Mingyi pointed to the forbidden step around her waist. Xue Lin looked over and saw that a piece in the middle of the forbidden step looked familiar. If he took a closer look, it was not his piece. Drop-shaped malachite? Instead, she took it and strung it together with the strings and gold and jade beads. At first glance, it looked a little strange.

However, Mingyi wore it without saying anything and brought it into the palace. She seemed to like it very much... Xue Lin looked at the smile on her face and was silent for a while.

Mingyi looked at the silver pot on his waist, with satisfaction on her lips, "Let's go! Didn't you say you want to go to Shuying Pavilion?" After saying that, she took a step first, and after a few steps, she listened. There were also footsteps coming from behind.

Xue Lin was obviously long and wide, but today he was always two or three steps behind her, neither far nor close.

After waiting outside for a while, when they arrived at Shuying Pavilion, there were many people in the pavilion. An Qian, who was busy in the imperial dining room earlier, had also arrived, but she looked a little strange. When she saw Mingyi, she pulled her in Beside him, he asked in a low voice, "Where have you been?"

"What happened?" Mingyi asked An Qian softly.

The atmosphere in the pavilion was a bit delicate, with many people whispering. While talking, they secretly glanced at the superiors, who were none other than Emperor Chongning and others. Wei Xunzhi and Chu Yanze were also in front of the emperor.

An Qian pondered for a moment, leaned into her ear and whispered softly, "Just now, the Third Young Master of Wei sent a box of Dongzhu, saying that he fell in love at first sight with Princess Changning, the Palm Pearl of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he sincerely asked to marry her."

"What?" Mingyi's face suddenly changed, but her heart sank heavily. She never thought that Wei Xunzhi had such an idea? In an instant, Mingyi's mind was buzzing.

"... He said that he didn't dare to have any unreasonable thoughts, but he couldn't control his feelings. Ever since he met Princess Changning, he has been deeply in love with her, so he had the courage to propose to His Majesty. He knew that Princess Changning was the apple of His Majesty's eye, and was also His Majesty's favorite niece. He was absolutely reluctant to let her marry far away. To show his sincerity, if His Majesty agreed to marry the Princess, he would not return to southern Hunan and would live in Wangjing forever... ..." An Qian was still whispering in Mingyi's ear.

He lied! For a moment, Mingyi almost shouted out of control. He had clearly figured out the thoughts of His Majesty and the eldest princess. He knew that Li Fengjiao had hurt her face and that her current marriage had become a heartache for both of them... No wonder, he deliberately tried to please, and in just a few days, he managed to win over both His Majesty and the palace. Everyone thought he was pretty good, so it turned out that this was what he had planned.

Did he fall in love with Li Fengjiao at first sight? His so-called "love" has always been based on sexual desire and robbery. Li Fengjiao should not attract his attention now.
