Cheng Jingyu sat speechless for a long time.
Then he said sadly: "I haven't agreed to go yet, have I?"
"Ms. Chen replied and asked who was there. She has never been familiar with the powerful people in Beijing. If there are no other girls she knows, it would be inconvenient for her to go."
Nie Wenxun twirled the teacup on his fingertips, speaking carelessly, as if he was just muttering unintentionally.
If Chen Yili doesn't go, then of course there is no need for Cheng Jinghe to go.
He immediately said: "Ms. Chen said that she had a relationship with Jingyu at Xiaoda Temple Fair. Since Jingyu is gone, she must have a girl she knows well."
Cheng Jingyu: "...I won't go. I don't like to go out recently."
"You have been sitting in the mansion since the crown prince's resignation. Could it be that you have something on your mind? Prince Wenxun is also kind-hearted. If you go out for a walk, the scenery in spring will have a unique flavor."
Nie Wenxun also helped: "Yes, princess, don't you still want to get back the things you lost?"
Unexpectedly, after he said this, Cheng Jingyu turned sideways and gave a smile that I knew.
Only then did Nie Wenxun realize that the other party's several rejections might just be for the sake of making excuses.
"You have indeed seen that thing of mine," Cheng Jingyu said, "What do you want to do?"
"Anyway, I don't have the stuff here. If you want it, you have to go there yourself."
Cheng Jingyu could probably guess who picked up her handkerchief.
She had only met two people in prison, Wei Changming and... Fu Yanci.
But why did Fu Yanci ask Nie Wenxun to come to her for horse racing?
When she thought of Fu Yanci, she felt slightly uncomfortable.
"I have brought the message to you. Can the Princess and the Major General discuss it further? We will be waiting on the banks of the Nagasaki River tomorrow morning."
It wasn't until Nie Wenxun's car drove away that Cheng Jinghe realized that he had just been used by Nie Wenxun as bait for his sister.
"Did he sincerely invite us to go horse racing?"
Cheng Jingyu didn't know what Fu Yanci was going to do, so she shook her head.
Whether it's meeting in the prison in the morning or a horse race tomorrow.
She didn't really want to see Fu Yanci.
She felt embarrassed when she thought of what Su Yi said about how she cried and made trouble that night.
Moreover, when she was first reborn, she only regarded Fu Yanci as a life-saving straw. At that time, she felt that it would be great if Fu Yanci would marry her.
Or if you don't want to marry, it would be better if you are willing to accept her surrender.
No matter what, it would be good if it could provide the Cheng family with a final way out for the future.
But now she doesn't dare to be so sure that she still has this idea.
When looking at Fu Yanci from another angle, he is like a powerful god and Buddha, which makes people unconsciously fascinated.
Especially when he looked at himself intently.
Cheng Jingyu could clearly hear her heartbeat from her chest.
If she no longer knew what was wrong with her, it could be said that Cheng Jingyu had lived two lives in vain.
She's not that slow yet.
But falling in love with Fu Yanci is more dangerous than dealing with Xiao Heng.
Especially now, when everything is still unclear and Xiao Shenggao is eyeing the Cheng family.
She said rather upset: "I don't know."
"Xiao Heng's fall is nothing to us, but I don't think he is suitable to be the prince, let alone what he did with Jiaojiao."
Cheng Jinghe could see that Cheng Jingyu's mood these days was obviously not as energetic as before.
And he couldn't imagine why Cheng Jingyu was like this.
She just thought that she did have some friendship with Xiao Heng and was feeling sad for him.
So even if it wasn't for Chen Yili, he still hoped that Cheng Jingyu could go out and relax.
Just think it's for herself.
Cheng Jingyu pursed her lips. She didn't care what Cheng Jinghe was thinking.
But Nie Wenxun had already said it for this reason, and he was timid if he continued to hide.
Being cowardly is not Cheng Jingyu's style.

What was originally just a horse racing pastime was turned into a spring banquet by Nie Wenxun.
Not many people came originally, at most a few young men from aristocratic families.
But because Cheng Jingyu and Cheng Jinghe were coming, and the lack of girls was unreasonable, Nie Wenxun had no choice but to invite them all.
The mats were also temporarily installed.
We even asked a famous confectionery chef in Kyoto to make all the famous confectionery from all over the country.
I have to say that Nie Wenxun really knows how to choose. There is an endless grassland on the banks of the Nagasaki River.
In March, the grass grows and warblers fly, which is perfect for horse racing.
When Cheng Jingyu arrived, a lot of people were already there.
The coachman lifted up the curtain for her, and Cheng Jingyu, who dismounted, was dressed in riding attire, with a slim waist outlined by a girdle.
This is Cheng Jingyu's first appearance in front of the public after being awarded the title of princess.
Everyone who was already present gathered around and greeted her.
"Princess Heshuo Jin An!"
Cheng Jingyu's eyes only focused on what was in front of her: "Everyone, get up."
Among the nearly ten noble gentlemen present, there were many who had felt that Cheng Jingyu was leaning against Xiao Heng.
But this time something happened to Xiao Heng, and Cheng Jingyu's title went even further.
No one dared to look down upon her anymore, and their greetings were all respectful.
Nie Wenxun, as the 'host', had arrived a long time ago. He was talking to Fu Yanci and now he also came over to welcome him.
"The princess looks really cool and neat today."
Cheng Jingyu bowed slightly: "His Royal Highness."
"Your Highness the Crown Prince." Cheng Jinghe on the side also raised his hand, but his eyes were looking for someone everywhere.
Then he locked eyes on a graceful and gentle figure, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly walked over.
Cheng Jingyu took a look and saw that Chen Yili was still the same as before.
There was no expression on her face, but one could easily tell that she was smiling.
It's very pleasing to the eye, no wonder my brother is so enamored with it.
With this action, everyone present was taken for a tour.
Cheng Jingyu didn't quite recognize the girls, they were all faces.
Nie Wenxun's communication skills should not be underestimated. In the short time he came to Xichu, he was able to invite so many people.
Looking to the right, there are two people standing next to Fu Yanci, Xiao Yi and Tang Weiyang.
Xiao Yi was talking with a rather sad face.
Tang Weiyang, on the other hand, had a smile on his lips and whispered comfort.
Only Fu Yanci was like an outsider, not knowing whether he was listening or not. His eyes fell on a nearby flower.
There is a butterfly stuck to the flower.
He was also in riding attire today, dressed in moon white, with white deerskin boots covering his slender legs, and his girdle seemed to be a picture of auspicious clouds outlined with gold thread.
The whole person was calm and handsome, catching people's attention among the many people present.
He also specially brought Tang Weiyang with him today, and it seemed that he really cared about Tang Weiyang.
Suddenly, as if he felt eyes falling on him, Fu Yanci suddenly raised his head and looked over.
Cheng Jingyu was caught off guard, and she didn't even have time to look away. She just met his eyes, and their eyes collided.
boom.
Bang bang.
Cheng Jingyu heard her heartbeat getting louder again.
She turned away her eyes almost hastily, trying to pretend that nothing happened.
But there turned out to be a pit of broken earth beneath my feet, and I almost missed the step and lost my footing.
A pair of hands quickly appeared on her waist, hugging her and holding her steady.
