Is he happy that His Highness has broken off the engagement?
The answer is unquestionable.
However, facing those smiling phoenix eyes at this moment, the flash of narrowness in his eyes made Du Fengju suddenly feel ashamed.
He wanted to shake his head and answer no, but he really couldn't say such a thing against his will.
He adjusted his breath slightly, looked at Zheng Ji with the same smile, and asked: "Isn't your Highness happy in your heart?"
"..." Zheng Ji didn't expect him to ask the question back. He was silent for a moment and then laughed "haha".
"Happy, I am extremely happy. I can finally get rid of this marriage!"
In front of Feng Ju, she was not afraid to show her true emotions.
Intentionally or unintentionally, she said: "I used to know Song Zan through Lin Jun in the palace. I thought this was the best. I was really young and confused."
Isn't this young and confused?
Trapped in the palace, she was like a frog in a well. When she saw a blade of grass, she thought it was an entire forest. Because of this, she was punished enough.
"It wasn't until I left the palace and opened my mansion that I realized that this was not the case."
A mere Song Zan is nothing.
What she was talking about at this moment was not just Song Zan, but her state of mind.
At this time, she was extremely lucky that her mother-in-law and the Jiang family helped her leave the palace and open a mansion. She was also extremely lucky that her father loved her very much and allowed her to leave the palace and open a mansion.
Otherwise, she would be trapped in the palace like in her previous life, never knowing how vast the world outside was.
Du Fengju agreed very much with this. He said sternly: "What your Highness said is true! Therefore, we cannot be limited to one person in one place. We must climb to higher places and go to farther places in order to see different things. thing."
That's what it means to climb high and look far, to see the whole world.
"If possible, Your Highness needs to contact more people and visit more places in person in order to see a broader and more real world."
These words were taught by his father, emphasized by his adoptive father, and this is what he has always done.
When he was in Hedong, he traveled to all the great roads in the world, and finally returned to Jingzhao. During this time, he also changed various identities and met many different people.
Everywhere he went and every person he met made him grow, making him the Du Fengju he is today.
This was his experience, and it was also his experience. Unknowingly, he said it to Zheng Ji.
It is too difficult for ordinary girls to do this, but with the favor of the Emperor and the financial support of the Jiang family, Your Highness should be able to do it, and maybe even better.
For example, Your Highness has already entered the martial arts pavilion, right?
"..." Zheng Ji didn't know what to say.
Such Fengju made her feel as if she had returned to the time when she first met Fengju in her previous life. At that time, Fengju would also say something to her from time to time and teach her some principles.
At that time, she always listened silently, feeling extremely grateful in her heart.
When she was so down and out and didn't even dare to mention her own name, there were still people willing to teach her. This was already a kind of God-given luck.
In this life, she is in a high position and has power, but there is still such a person who speaks this truth to her from the bottom of his heart, and truly wants her to become a better person and see a broader world.
How lucky she is to meet Fengju!
"Hahaha" she laughed again, her laughter was wanton and hearty.
Du Fengju looked at Zheng Ji who suddenly laughed, feeling puzzled, and then he also laughed.
No matter, I am happy today anyway, just laugh.

Zheng Ji's breakup of the engagement added a lot of excitement to the palace. Although she was not in the palace, everyone in the palace was talking about her.
Everyone is thinking that this is the first princess in Yongning to withdraw from the engagement. Anyway, this is not a decent thing, right?
However, they were disappointed.
According to the report from the maid they secretly arranged, His Highness Changding not only
Instead of being haggard and decaying, his face was radiant, and his appearance seemed a bit more gorgeous than before.
"Haha, even if Huinan didn't say it, I still know what they said behind their backs. Will they be disappointed now? Xiaojiu is very good, but he is not as sad as they thought!" Concubine Jiang smiled road.
During these days, because of the Zixi Pill, she had to lie in bed and pretend to be weak. Her greatest pleasure was the gossip from other concubines.
Of course, the greater pleasure is to see those concubines jumping with anger, but unfortunately, I can't see it for the time being.
It was as if she could not get pregnant for the rest of her life. On the surface, the people in the harem were grieving for her, but in fact they were secretly happy. For example, when Xiaojiu broke off the engagement, they thought that Xiaojiu would be crying and grieving all day long.
They may never understand that one is like a bear's paw and another is like arsenic and frost. They will look down upon things that they think are excellent.
"Mother, that's about it. You're smiling so happily that you can't pretend to be sick anymore." Zheng Ji said with a smile.
The mother and daughter wanted to say something more, but the young chamberlain came in and said, "Your Highness, the fifteenth princess wants to see you."
Is Zheng Chuan here?
"Invite her in quickly." Zheng Ji said immediately.
The fact that the mother-in-law's pregnancy was resolved so smoothly was thanks to Zheng Chuan who brought the news about the Zixi Pill, and she wanted to thank him!
During this period of time, Zheng Chuan had been so frightened that he did not even dare to leave the palace gate. Fortunately, now that the matter has finally come to an end, she dares to come to Fuqing Palace.
She came here mainly to get back her mother's notes, and there was another thing that had been bothering her for a long time...
After getting the notes, Zheng Chuan hesitated for a long time and stammered: "Sister Jiuhuang, I want to ask, I want to ask..."
It was really hard for her to talk about this matter. Sister Jiuhuang had encountered so many things during this period, and she had just broken off her engagement. She was so busy that she must not have had time to deal with that matter, but...
To her, this was a big deal, making her uneasy all day long. All she could ask was Sister Jiuhuang.
Zheng Ji saw that her hands were trembling with nervousness, and he immediately answered, "Fifteenth Princess, what do you want to ask about the general under the crown prince's command?"
Zheng Ji has never forgotten this matter.
After Qin Zhou came back from Jiangnan Road, she asked Qin Zhou to check the general beside the prince.
By coincidence, Qin Zhou happened to know this military commander named Wei Que.
"We have sent people to investigate. Wei Que is indeed disabled in his legs and feet, but he can still walk. He has married two wives and has three sons and two daughters. The second wife passed away last year. He is... said to be honest and honest. Yi, martial arts is very good..."
Zheng Ji told Qin Zhou everything he knew and found out, trying to be as detailed as possible.
In general, Qin Zhou is very similar to what the queen said to Zheng Chuan.
This is indeed a military commander that the prince reuses. He has a high official rank and his conduct seems to be pretty good at the moment.
In the dynasty, there were too many precedents for high-ranking military generals Shang Zhu, so Wei Que's request to marry Zheng Chuan was not inappropriate, especially since the empress was involved.
But why did the Empress take a fancy to Zheng Chuan?
