When it was time to eat, Cuiyun Tower was not full yet.
Yu Yuan felt particularly strange when he saw Jiang Shu.
"What a coincidence. Brother Zheng just came and you came too. It's like an appointment."
Jiang Shu's almond-shaped eyes flashed slightly when he heard this: "Is the prince here?"
"Just arrived." Yu Yuan pointed to the private room upstairs.
Jiang Shu suppressed his emotions and said calmly: "I'll go say hello."
Yu Yuan didn't pay attention, but Jiang Ning was a little puzzled and then understood something.
When Jiang Ning went upstairs, she lowered her voice and asked, "Sister, are you here specifically to see King Jing?"
"Is it important? I won't delay your meal." Jiang Shu changed his focus.
Jiang Ning thought about it. It was reasonable and reasonable to have dinner with her future brother-in-law.
The door to the private room was pushed open, Yu Zheng raised his eyes and saw a warm smile in his eyes when he saw Jiang Shu. When he saw Jiang Ning following him, he was slightly shocked.
"Your Majesty." Jiang Shu walked to Yu Zheng and sat down next to him.
Yu Zheng subconsciously looked at Jiang Ning's reaction.
Jiang Ning said clearly: "My sister has told us, there is no need to pretend."
Yu Zheng: "..." Then what are you doing here?
Jiang Shu coughed lightly and briefly explained the reason.
After hearing this, Yu Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly and asked Jiang Ning what he wanted to eat.
"Are you treating me?" Jiang Ning asked with bright eyes.
Yu Zheng said: "Your sister said she would treat me to a meal for the rest of my life."
Jiang Ning choked, and he was also eating his sister.
"Hurry up and order, otherwise you will have to wait when there are too many people." Jiang Shu hurriedly smoothed things over.
Jiang Ning doesn't hate Yu Zheng, and because of Yu Zheng's identity and his kindness to the Jiang family, he knows what's appropriate.
After ordering, Jiang Ning took the initiative to pour tea for Yu Zheng and talk to him.
"Sister said you led troops to suppress bandits. Was it successful?"
Yu Zheng nodded: "It went smoothly."
Jiang Ning added: "Did you know that many people came to our house to propose marriage to my sister a few days ago?"
Yu Zheng nodded again: "That's why I rushed back."
"Then when will you come to my house to propose marriage?" Jiang Ning asked what he was most concerned about.
Although he was reluctant to let his sister get married, he wanted her to be happy even more.
"Brother." Jiang Shu tugged on Jiang Ning's sleeve, blushing and not daring to look at Yu Zheng.
How embarrassing to ask directly about this kind of thing.
Yu Zheng and Jiang Ning looked at each other and said solemnly, "It will take some time."
"Why?" Jiang Ning was puzzled.
Yu Zheng pursed his lips and said seriously: "I have to make my father, the emperor, mother and concubine willing, so that your sister will not be wronged."
"It sounds difficult." Jiang Ning frowned sadly.
Jiang Shu was sandwiched between them and couldn't get a word in, so he suggested, "How about I change seats and you guys sit closer to chat?"
"Need not."
"Need not."
The two said in unison.
Jiang Shu glanced at them and was about to speak when Yu Yuan opened the door and came in.
"Brother Zheng... Hey, why are you still here?" Yu Yuan was holding the wine with a surprised look on his face.
From Yu Yuan's expression and reaction, Jiang Ning concluded that he didn't know the relationship between the two.
So he said deliberately: "We are here to eat. The food hasn't been served yet. Where can we go?"
Sure enough, Yu Yuan frowned and said in confusion: "You just eat, why are you sitting with my brother Zheng?"
"Because he wants to have dinner with my sister."
"Ah?" Yu Yuan opened his eyes wide and glanced back and forth at Yu Zheng and Jiang Shu.
Jiang Shu looked shy, and Yu Zheng looked at Jiang Shu with eyes full of tenderness!
"Are you hiding something from me?" Yu Yuan thought they looked very innocent!
The matter has come to this, and there is no need to hide it anymore.
Yu Zheng took Jiang Shu's hand, put it on the table and said, "As you can see."
Yu Yuan: "...!"
What did you see? When did they hook up together? Or have they been hooking up under his nose?
Yu Yuan was greatly shocked. He quickly rushed to the table and sat down. He poured himself a glass of wine and muttered to himself: "No, I have to drink a glass of wine first to calm down the shock."
"Is it done? I need your help with something," Yu Zheng said.
"What's the matter?" Yu Yuan put down his wine glass and asked.
Yu Zheng glanced at Jiang Ning and said hesitantly: "We are going to talk about some adult matters. You go out to play for a while first."
Jiang Ning shook her head and raised her chest: "I am already an adult, there is no need to avoid it."
"Are you sure?" Yu Zheng frowned.
Jiang Ning nodded firmly: "OK."
He's grown up and there's nothing he can't hear.
Jiang Ning, a simple young man, never expected that what Yu Zheng said next would shatter his outlook on life.
Seeing Yu Zheng's serious expression, Yu Yuan had a bad premonition.
Jiang Ning didn't want to leave, he wanted to leave.
Under the curious gazes of the three people, Yu Zheng spoke slowly: "Help me find a few servants and let them serve me. Then find someone to make up some rumors about broken sleeves, hidden diseases, Long Yang is so good, how can it be too much? How to pass it on."
Yu Yuan was petrified after hearing the whole thing. After coming back to his senses, he trembled and went to get the wine bottle: "I have to suppress my shock again."
Who would create their own rumors, or in such an insulting way? Isn't this self-destructive?
After downing three glasses of wine, Yu Yuan barely regained his composure.
Jiang Ning took the tea and put it in his mouth. After drinking it, he realized that it was hot. It made him blush and stick out his tongue.
Jiang Shu was better than them. He swallowed his saliva and asked, "Why do you want to ruin your reputation?"
Over the years, Yu Zheng, like the prince, was diligent in government, loved the people, and had the world at heart. He was praised and supported by hundreds of officials and praised and respected by all people.
Coupled with the favor of the Holy Emperor, Yu Zheng is very likely to ascend to that high position in the future.
But if his reputation is ruined, he will not be able to compete with the prince.
Jiang Shu didn't understand, Yu Yuan didn't understand either, and Jiang Ning was even more confused.
Yu Zheng said solemnly: "I want to marry Shu'er as soon as possible. This is the fastest and most trouble-free way."
As soon as these words came out, the three of them immediately understood.
Nobles from aristocratic families all value their reputation, especially the royal family.
Under normal circumstances, given the huge difference in status between Yu Zheng and Jiang Shu, even if the Holy Concubine allowed it, Jiang Shu could only be a side concubine at best.
But if Yu Zheng loses his reputation and the noble concubine thinks that he has a habit of cutting off his sleeves and is unable to marry a concubine seriously, then the standards for concubine selection will be lowered.
At that time, Jiang Shu will not only be able to marry Yu Zheng in the name of the royal concubine, but the Holy Emperor and the concubine will not be embarrassed because they feel guilty.
Although this method works, it is too bad.
Yu Yuan said with a downcast face: "Brother Zheng, is there no other way?"
"Yes, but it's too slow. I can't wait any longer." Yu Zheng held Jiang Shu's hand tightly, making no secret of his impatience.
Jiang Ning saw it in her eyes and heard it in her ears, and was greatly moved in her heart.
If the majestic prince can sacrifice his reputation and seek marriage, he will definitely treat his sister well.
"Then have you ever thought about the consequences? If the Holy One finds out, he will break my legs. In the future, it will be clarified, and you will also be criticized and make a fuss about this matter." Yu Yuan persuaded earnestly.
Yu Zheng said: "I don't care."
Yu Yuan was anxious: "I don't care, the Holy Spirit will really break my legs."
Yu Zheng's black eyes narrowed slightly and threatened: "If you refuse, I will tell Uncle Wang now that you knocked off the missing corner of the jade seal back then."
Then his father will break his legs today!
"Brother Zheng, you didn't leave any way for me to survive!" Yu Yuan pounded the table in pain, regretting stepping into this door.
Yu Zheng raised his eyebrows: "Move quickly, I want to see someone within three days, rumors will spread within half a month, and the whole city will be in trouble within a month."
Yu Yuan was shocked, he was really anxious!
