The next morning, just after dawn, Zhu Wenyu couldn't wait to arrive at Zhao Xuanyi's home. After arriving, he went directly into the backyard and knocked on Zhao Xuanyi's door without hesitation. "Brother, are you awake? Brother?"
Zhao Xuanyi opened his eyes in anger, "Did you take chicken blood early in the morning? Are you in such a hurry?"
"Can I not be anxious? Get up quickly. Is Miss Qin back?" Zhu Wenyu was jumping up and down outside the room, very anxious!
"I'm back. Ask Brother Shen to help you. Don't bother me!" Zhao Xuanyi shouted and covered his head with the quilt!
"Hey? Don't sleep, get up quickly, let's go together!"
"What am I going to do?"
"I myself... am a bit abrupt!"
"Then don't go!"
"Brother, help people to the end and send Buddha to the West! Please, ancestor, come with me!"
"Ancestor, can I ask you to do it? Can I get out of bed?" Zhao Xuanyi shouted without tears.
"Oh, I forgot about this in a hurry, so just keep sleeping! I'll go see Miss Qin first! Brother Shen? Where is Brother Shen?" Zhu Wenyu shouted loudly throughout the yard!
Zhao Xuanyi sighed and turned to look at Zi Yuan who was lying next to him, "Believe me, his status as a prince protects him!"
Zi Yuan smiled, then hugged Zhao Xuanyi's arm and continued to rest!
Zhu Wenyu found Shen Wei and pulled Shen Wei to Qin Jinyi's courtyard. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Yulan already drawing water outside. Seeing Zhu Wenyu coming, she hurriedly put down the basin in her hand. "See Prince!"
Zhu Wenyu waved her hand, "Where is Miss Qin?"
"Miss... she's still sleeping and hasn't woken up yet!"
"That's it! Then I'll wait outside, don't wake her up, and let her sleep a little longer!"
"yes!"
After Zhu Wenyu finished speaking, he walked outside the yard and waited quietly for Qin Jinyi to wake up. For Zhu Wenyu, as long as Qin Jinyi came back, nothing else would matter! No need to worry anymore!
Just like that, after waiting for an hour and a half, Qin Jinyi woke up. The long period of detention had caused her biological clock to be disrupted. She would not normally wake up at this hour!
After walking out of the yard, Yulan hurriedly brought her face wash. Qin Jinyi washed her face and then sat on a chair nearby. "Yulan, Master Zhao, did you ask someone to come over and explain something?"
"No! Mr. Zhao didn't come, but... the prince is here!"
After Qin Jinyi heard this, she stood up quickly, "Prince? Where is he?"
"I'm waiting outside. I told you not to disturb your rest!"
After Qin Jinyi heard this, she sighed and walked out of her yard. When she came outside, she saw Shen Wei and Zhu Wenyu chatting. Shen Wei saw Qin Jinyi coming out and hurriedly winked at Zhu Wenyu!
Zhu Wenyu turned around and saw Qin Jinyi coming out. She was very excited and quickly came to Qin Jinyi: "Miss Qin, you're awake!"
"I didn't know that the prince was coming. I slept too much for an hour. Please forgive me, prince!"
"You're welcome, Miss Qin. You have been imprisoned for so many days and you should have a good rest at this moment! It was me who was rude!"
"Your Majesty, your words are serious!" The two of them talked very politely.
An hour later, Zhao Xuanyi was carried to the hall by four Qilin guards and sat on the Taishi chair. Because ordinary chairs required holding the chest up, which would involve the wound, Zhao Xuanyi could only sit on the Taishi chair!
Zhu Wenyu and Qin Jinyi also came. Zhao Xuanyi looked at Li Hanyan and Zi Yuan and waved, "You all go down. Brother Qin and I and Miss Qin have a few words to say alone!"
"Yes!" Li Hanyan left obediently, and Zi Yuan followed suit. Only four people, Zhao Xuanyi, Zhu Wenyu, Qin Jinyi and Shen Wei, were left in the room!
Qin Jinyi looked at Zhao Xuanyi, "Mr. Zhao, do you want to talk to me about being kidnapped?"
"Uh... no! I want to talk to Miss Qin about something more important!"
"Master Zhao, please speak!"
"That's right, Miss Qin must also know that the reason why we went to your house this time was because of the prince.
When I was wandering around, I stayed at your house and fell in love with you at first sight, so I went here this time to invite you back to the capital, protect you, and take care of your future life! "
"But the plan didn't change quickly. I'm really sorry for making Miss Qin suffer so much now! Please forgive me!"
After Qin Jinyi heard this, her face turned red with embarrassment. It would have been better if she didn't mention the rules. She mentioned that she was the prince's crush, which made Qin Jinyi very shy, "It doesn't matter, everything is fine now!"
"Miss Qin, I won't hide it from you anymore. What I'm talking to you about today is your life-long event. What do you think?"
"Master Zhao, do you want to marry me?"
"..." Zhu Wenyu turned around and stared at Zhao Xuanyi, thinking to herself, are you the one who gets the moon first when you are near the water? I've been busy for so long, you want to propose marriage?
Zhao Xuanyi was so frightened that his hair stood on end, "No, no, no... Miss Qin, you misunderstood, it's not me! It's the prince who wants to accept you as the crown prince, so that you can live a lifetime of food and clothing, glory and wealth! If the prince becomes the emperor in the future, You are the queen of the world, and this kind of glory is what everyone in the world dreams of!"
"What?" Qin Jinyi turned to look at Zhu Wenyu, and Zhu Wenyu's face felt hot when Qin Jinyi looked at her like this, and she hurriedly lowered her head and blushed with embarrassment!
Qin Jinyi thought that Zhao Xuanyi called her here to discuss marriage with her, but it turned out that he was a matchmaker for the prince. Yes! Being able to be a crown princess and a queen in the future is a life that many women dream of, but Qin Jinyi is not very excited!
"Prince, is what Young Master Zhao said true?" Qin Jinyi asked seriously.
"It's absolutely true! It can be said that I fell in love with Miss Qin at first sight. For so many years, I have never been involved with another woman, just so that one day I can marry you home and stay with you forever! I... ?" Zhu Wenyu got excited and kept talking.
But Qin Jinyi made a stop gesture, "Your Highness, it seems that you are serious, but what do you mean? Stay with me forever? You are the prince now, do you plan to marry me?"
"nature!"
"What if you become the emperor? How many more will you marry?"
"This...?" Zhu Wenyu was speechless for a moment!
"I thought that a man like Mr. Zhao who has four wives and concubines is already busy enough, but you are destined to be the third palace, sixth courtyard, and seventy-two partial concubines. Why are you marrying me back? Living in the palace, every day Living with your fingers raised, not allowed to leave the palace, with all the rules?"
"After you have married countless concubines, I can only expect you to visit me every day? I come from the world, and although I don't know martial arts, I don't want to live in a golden cage, waiting for your viewing! Even going out for shopping , will be kidnapped at any time."
"I'm sorry, this is not the life I want! If my words offended the prince, I apologize to you. If you think I don't know how to praise you, you can do whatever you want! If my father was still alive, I might not dare to be so disobedient. , maybe my father will be happy to hear this news, and now I am alone, without any restrictions!"
Qin Jinyi's answer was beyond Zhu Wenyu and Zhao Xuanyi's expectations. They originally thought that after Qin Jinyi was rescued, she would be happy to accept the position of Crown Princess, which would be enough to defeat Qi Lianzhong's ambitious plan, but they did not expect that it would end like this in the end. !
"You know? During the many days of being kidnapped, I thought about countless outcomes. The worst was that I was killed. And I also told myself that if I could come out alive this time, I would definitely fight for myself in the future. Live, after all, I only have myself left!"
"Fame, wealth, position, and power have nothing to do with me. I just think about whether I want to live in another city in the future, do some business, and at least pay back Mr. Zhao's silver. As for getting married? I don't have any parents now. It's fate and the matchmaker's words, so I'm not in a hurry!" Qin Jinyi said very calmly.
Zhu Yuejun’s words can be described as a blow to the head! The beating made Zhu Wenyu very miserable. He had all kinds of tenderness and the throne, but when it came to Qin Jinyi, there were all kinds of restraints and shackles. Zhu Wenyu was very helpless at this moment. With his status alone, why bother talking to such a folk woman? ? You can easily get her with a direct decree!
But Zhu Wenyu also understood that this woman
With her character, if she accepts her rude imperial order, someone might die! Thinking of this, Zhu Wenyu laughed miserably. It turned out that the things he fought so hard to seize were so cheap and useless in the eyes of some people!
Zhu Wenyu slowly raised her head, "Miss Qin, I'm being too abrupt. I shouldn't ask you so forcefully. Since the girl doesn't want to, then forget it! I... have something to do in the palace, so I won't be here to accompany you. Take my leave!" After Zhu Wenyu finished speaking, he stood up and left!
"Huh?" Zhao Xuanyi just wanted to call Zhu Wenyu, but he was already gone! Zhao Xuanyi turned to look at Qin Jinyi, "Miss Qin, why don't you take this opportunity?"
"Mr. Zhao, if you were me, would you agree with your character? I don't understand the affairs of the court, but I know that what matters is power, what matters is background. I am a person with no father or mother. Woman, how do you expect me to survive in the palace? I don’t even understand the etiquette of the palace. Do I go in and wait for others to frame or kill me? Are all you men like this? If you fall in love with that woman, just marry her home, whether she likes it or not. , can you survive?" Qin Jinyi asked coldly.
"Well...I don't. These ladies of mine are all voluntary!" Zhao Xuanyi hurriedly explained.
"You men are all the same!" Qin Jinyi said, got up and walked out of the hall!
Qin Jinyi's words made it difficult for Zhao Xuanyi to answer, thinking that this girl is smarter than imagined and not stupid!
Shen Wei came to Zhao Xuanyi and poured him a cup of tea, "This girl is not as weak as she looks. She is very difficult to get along with!"
"yes!"
"Then what to do next? Do you plan to continue to help Zhu Wenyu match him, or do you want to take it in yourself?"
"Don't make trouble! If I marry again, will I die? And if I really marry Qin Jinyi, Zhu Wenyu will be very angry with me. Then the future emperor will be invisibly developed into a rival. This is not a good thing! "
"Then what to do next?"
Zhao Xuanyi sighed, "We really don't have time to talk about Qin Jinyi now. Looking at this situation, it is estimated that the situation in the palace will be more serious!" Zhao Xuanyi gritted his teeth, grabbed Shen Wei's shoulders with his big hands, and stood up slowly!
"Young Master, don't be brave, you haven't even had half a month's rest!"
The severe pain in his chest forced Zhao Xuanyi to sit down. "Damn it, the injury was too serious this time. I thought I could stand up and walk! I didn't expect to become so embarrassed!"
"Ancestor, please stop doing this! Otherwise it will be troublesome if the wound splits!" Shen Wei said with a distressed look on his face.
"I thought that if I could leave, I would enter the palace once!"
"Entering the palace? What to do?"
"Let's see with our own eyes how capable this Qi Qingyu is. If this girl really has other plans in mind, I will definitely disrupt this matter, but now I can't even stand up, let alone walk! "
"Young Master is worried about Daming, but! If you want to go to the East Palace, it's not impossible. Can we use a sedan to carry you in?"
Zhao Xuanyi glared at Shen Wei, "I am a chariot and sedan chair in the palace? Are you looking for death?"
"Isn't there no way out? You can't walk. I believe the emperor won't blame you. But if you really can't... ask the eldest princess for help?"
When Zhao Xuanyi heard about the eldest princess, he immediately became energetic and said, "I will write a letter immediately and you can send it to the eldest princess immediately!"
"Yes!" Shen Wei nodded and said.
In the Mingyue Palace, Nan Zhu came to the hall with a letter, "Elder Princess, this is a letter from Duke Zhao!"
"Letter?" Zhu Wenyu smiled, wondering if this guy could just say a word if he had something to do? And make it so formal! He took the letter and opened it.
[The eldest princess personally read that Qin Jinyi has been rescued. This morning the prince came to the palace with great joy to propose marriage, but was rejected on the spot. He must be filled with grief at this moment, but the matter of marrying the concubine is imminent. I went into the palace in advance and went face to face with the daughter of the Qi family. Only by understanding this can we come up with a strategy to defeat the enemy. However, I am now seriously ill and unable to walk. Please come up with a strategy, the eldest princess, and take me into the palace. Then I will act according to the opportunity. Yours sincerely, Zhao Xuanyi! 】
After Zhu Yuejun saw the letter, a complicated expression appeared on her face. How dare a commoner girl refuse the prince's marriage proposal? Don’t want to live anymore? and
And Zhao Xuanyi seemed to have no way to persuade Qin Jinyi, so he asked himself to wait until he entered the palace to come up with a countermeasure!
Zhu Yuejun lowered his head and thought deeply. If it were normal, he could just issue an imperial edict to bring Zhao Xuanyi into the palace. But Zhao Xuanyi's current situation... is really not easy, but Zhao Xuanyi must be allowed in, otherwise he will not be able to discuss how to deal with Qi Qingyu. !
"Nanzhu!"
"The maid is here!"
"You personally drive to the Protector's Mansion, pick up Zhao Xuanyi, and take him to my Mingyue Palace!"
"Yes, then...eldest princess, the reason?"
Zhu Yuejun smiled slightly, "I have important matters to discuss with you. Also, please call me the Crown Prince and Qi Qingyu!"
"Yes!" Nanzhu said.
