This invitation was submitted by Lin Jun.
Since she was the princess' companion, the concierge sent her greeting card.
The greeting card was written with sincerity and expressed his eagerness to see Zheng Ji.
"Take this post and ask her to come over in three days." Zheng Ji casually put down the post and said calmly.
She could guess the reason why Lin Jun asked for a meeting.
At this time, the Lin family not only had to raise money for flood control in Jiangnan Province, but also prepared a scapegoat after something bad happened. Of course, Lin Jun wanted to come and ask to see her. .
She was silent for a moment and asked curiously: "Auntie, are we really... so stupid?"
"Your Highness, what are you talking nonsense about?" Aunt Huinan glared and said angrily: "Our Highness is very smart. Who is talking nonsense in front of His Highness? I will be the first to forgive you!"
Zheng Ji touched his nose and whispered, "I am just curious."
Otherwise, why would a single person come to her to make a plan?
Song Zan wanted to use Liu Chundu in order to get money from the Jiang family through her; Lin Jun used their sisterhood as a cover up in order to use her.
They all targeted her, of course, because she was easy to deceive.
Only those who are stupid can be easily deceived. Such a person is the most beloved princess and the most beloved granddaughter of the richest man.
If you don't seek benefits from her, you would be sorry for yourself. If you plan less, you can be said to be a kind person.
However, this was all in the past.
She is looking forward to it now, how will Lin Jun, this extremely smart person in his previous life, coax her into the game this time?
Three days later, Lin Jun arrived as promised.
As soon as she saw Zheng Ji, she laughed, and the smile spread from the corners of her lips to the bottom of her eyes, as if it came from the heart.
She greeted him warmly and said with a sweet smile: "Your Highness, long time no see! I miss you so much. Did your Highness miss me?"
Anyone who sees such a performance will sincerely say: The relationship between these two little sisters is so good!
Who would have thought? Is this all an act?
Perhaps, it's not pretending, it's just that underneath this friendship, there is still a plan to seek wealth and murder.
Zheng Ji just didn't expect it in his previous life, so he was so unbelievable when Lin Jun stabbed him in the back.
After the previous life, she was also tempered at this moment, and said with a straight face: "It's been a long time since I saw you. If you miss me so much, why didn't you come to see me?"
If Lin Jun is intimidated by this, then he is not Lin Jun.
Her expression dimmed for a moment, then she smiled again and said, "Your Highness, you know. It's not easy for me to leave the house. Besides, I know that Your Highness has been very busy recently, so I don't dare to disturb you rashly."
Sensible, considerate, and always thinking about Zheng Ji, this was what Zheng Ji liked most about Lin Jun in the past.
It's strange to say that there are too many considerate and considerate people around her, and Lin Jun is just one of them. Why does she think he is different?
Probably because Lin Jun would say it.
As long as he did half a cent, he would let her know, and if he did something a few cents, he would also say ten cents, which would make her feel grateful.
It seemed that Lin Jun was always thinking about her, but in fact, it was Lin Jun who was leading her by the nose.
Just from the perspective of calculating people's hearts, she had to accept it!
Since the last long banquet, she had disgraced Lin Jun in public, and her previous mocking rejection must have been enough for Lin Jun to notice that her attitude had changed.
At this moment, what attitude will Lin Jun use to respond?
Lin Jun looked at Zheng Ji without any trace, but his face was still full of enthusiasm: "Your Highness, are you done with your work? I also heard about Your Highness's majesty in the back house. His Highness was the first to enter the martial arts pavilion. Princess, this is so awesome!"
Lin Jun looked proud, blinking his eyes with admiration.
If it were Zheng Ji in the past, he would definitely enjoy it in his heart, and the same is true now...
Who doesn’t like to hear nice words?
The difference is that in the past Zheng Ji would follow Lin Jun's words and fall into the pit, but now she just wants to push Lin Jun into the pit.
She stretched out her slender finger, poked Lin Jun's nose, and said, "You know how to say nice things. Don't we know you yet? By the way, what trouble did you encounter this time?"
Instead of letting out a sigh of relief, Lin Jun felt excited: "Your Highness, everything is fine for me recently and I haven't encountered any difficulties."
However, when she said this, she frowned slightly, but immediately raised her head and smiled at Zheng Ji.
The smile is bright, as if it can dispel all the gloom, making people feel happy when they see it.
Because, the slight sadness that just flashed through became more and more obvious.
Zheng Ji smiled and acted as he had done before, pretending to be angry: "Are you really okay? I don't believe it! You are my companion. If the Lin family bullies you, they don't take us seriously!"
Lin Jun looked at Zheng Ji gratefully: "Your Highness, they really didn't bully me. I just... just..."
"Just what?"
Lin Jun was about to speak but stopped, seeming very embarrassed.
Of course Zheng Ji had to continue to ask questions, otherwise, how could he let Lin Jun speak his mind smoothly?
"But it doesn't matter, I will definitely support you!"
As soon as he said these words, Lin Jun's eyes turned red and he said with a choked voice: "Your Highness, you are the best to me. It would be great if my grandfather and others treated me like this..."
Zheng Ji lived up to her expectations and continued: "So, they bullied you?"
Lin Jun still shook his head, but there was a trace of embarrassment on his face: "Your Highness, they didn't bully me. Grandfather had no choice. Grandfather said that the family has been in trouble recently and my dowry will be halved..."
She twisted her handkerchief and looked at Zheng Ji in a panic, saying incoherently: "Your Highness, what should I do? The Yu family has already paid a betrothal gift. If my dowry is reduced by half, then...then if I marry into the Yu family, what will I do? How to be a human being?"
Her eyes were obviously filled with water, but her expression was very stubborn. She bit her lip and refused to let the tears fall.
The more optimistic and cheerful a person is at ordinary times, the more pitiful he is when he occasionally shows vulnerability and sadness.
Zheng Ji's eyes showed pain, and he said proudly: "Isn't it just a dowry? To put it bluntly, it's still a matter of money! You are the companion of this palace, and I will definitely let you get married in a glorious way! The Yu family will definitely not dare to say anything!"
"Li Xing'en, bring me half the private seal of the palace! Little Que'er, just take the private seal of this palace and buy it. Buy whatever you need!"
When Li Xing'en heard this, his face was very troubled: "Your Highness, your private seal...I dare to advise you, but this may not be appropriate."
While saying this, he kept winking at Lin Jun, intending for her to immediately reject His Highness.
However, Lin Jun, who used to be very smart, seemed unable to understand what he meant and was still twisting his handkerchief and feeling sad.
Ha...it was just as His Highness expected.
