Cheng Yujin entered the door, and first glanced at Cheng Yuanjing calmly. Then she bowed her head and bowed dignifiedly to Old Marquis Cheng: "Granddaughter greets grandfather, grandfather is in good health."
After finishing speaking, Cheng Yujin turned the direction slightly and greeted Cheng Yuanjing: "My niece has seen Ninth Uncle, Ninth Uncle Wanfu."
Cheng Yuanjing raised his hand lightly and said, "Get up."
Cheng Yujin was a little surprised, Cheng Laohou was still here, Cheng Yuanjing made the call? She quietly went to see Old Marquis Cheng, and found that he was calm and calm, as if he didn't realize anything was wrong.
Okay, since Lord Cheng doesn't care about being offended by his son, what does she hate. Cheng Yujin stood up, smiled and said to Cheng Yuanjing, "My niece didn't know that the ninth uncle came back today, and that he missed a long way to welcome him. How was the ninth uncle all the way?"
Cheng Yuanjing looked at Cheng Yujin's flower-like smile, and thought to himself that he really left the capital for too long, and he couldn't keep up with the dynamics of the capital. Today's little girls are young, but they all look good. Cheng Yuanjing wouldn't believe it if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, such a gentle and beautiful little girl would slap her fiance's face with a slap.
Cheng Yuanjing said, "It's okay. You shouldn't have to worry about things outside."
Cheng Yujin felt awkward when she heard the words "junior" coming out of Cheng Yuanjing's mouth. Cheng Yuanjing didn't look much different from her, but she blurted out to call her junior, Cheng Yujin couldn't take it calmly.
But who made her grandfather unforgettable, Cheng Yujin could only accept this uncle who was only five years older than her.
It happened that Cheng Yujin was there, and Mr. Cheng asked, "Daughter, let me ask you, what's the matter with you and that kid from the Huo family?"
Cheng Yujin glanced at Cheng Yuanjing quietly and quietly, Old Marquis Cheng didn't ask about world affairs, so if he knew this kind of thing and didn't think about it, it must have been brought by Cheng Yuanjing. Cheng Yujin thought that her movements were secretive and fast, but Cheng Yuanjing turned her head accurately and smiled at Cheng Yujin.
Cheng Yujin was even more nervous. She wasn't sure how Cheng Yuanjing told Old Master Cheng, so she said conservatively first: "Grandfather, I and Master Huo... have nothing to do with it."
"What?" Old Marquis Cheng frowned, "What nonsense are you talking about at a young age, you are already his new wife, and you will spend the rest of your life with him, so it doesn't matter what you call it?"
Cheng Yujin lowered her head, showing just the right amount of sadness and depression: "Master Huo... today came to retire from relatives."
"What!" Old Marquis Cheng was even more surprised this time, and even his voice became higher consciously. Cheng Yuanjing was also surprised for a moment, it turned out to be a divorce, no wonder she aimed at each other's face with a slap and went. If that's the case, it's really worth fighting.
Old Marquis Cheng didn't even know about quitting the marriage, and it seemed that he didn't know that she slapped Huo Chang Yuan. Cheng Yujin was relieved now. It turned out that Cheng Yuanjing didn't talk much to the old marquis, much less than she expected.
Cheng Yujin let go of her hands and feet and complained in a low voice: "The granddaughter really doesn't know what's wrong, she has been fine before, but this morning, Lord Huo suddenly came to the door, and as soon as he entered the door, he said coldly that he wanted to break off the marriage. The granddaughter was at a loss and wanted to go over and ask. Asked what was going on, only to hear him say to his grandmother…”
Cheng Yujin lowered her head even lower, as if she couldn't hold back her tears and didn't want to be seen by others, so she lowered her head and refused to show her face. Cheng Yuanjing smiled without saying a word, quietly watched Cheng Yujin cry, if she really cried.
Old Marquis Cheng was really worried and asked, "What did he say?"
"He said that there was no reason, he just wanted to break off the marriage with his granddaughter. He also said later that I was trying to make a name for myself and forged it. After he broke off the engagement, no one would marry me again."
Cheng Yuanjing raised his eyebrows and glanced at Cheng Yujin with a half-smile but not a smile. This sentence was for him. He came in from the outside and wanted to see Cheng Laohou's illness, but he met a man and a woman arguing on the corridor. Cheng Yuanjing has a strong sense of domain, he stopped, intending to wait for the young couple to finish their quarrel before going over.
Although in terms of time, Cheng Yuanjing came first.
He never thought that he saw such a wonderful play.
Up to now, the eldest lady of the Cheng family is still calculating. "Fame and reputation" and "falsehood" are Huo Chang Yuan's original words, but after Cheng Yujin's seemingly non-existent rehearsal, the whole meaning is completely different. Cheng Yujin wanted to buy grievances cheaply from her grandfather, but was afraid of being exposed by him, so she deliberately played some word games.
Cheng Yuanjing is really not so free.
When Old Marquis Cheng heard this, he was really angry and cursed Huo Chang Yuan as his grandson. Cheng Yujin listened comfortably, and added from time to time that her bright eyes were like lacquer, and she turned around gently, looking forward to Shenghui, and her eyes fell on Cheng Yuanjing. She said: "Master Huo has military merits, and the rank of Hou is personally taken care of by the Holy Master. His future is limitless, and it is normal for him to despise me. It's just that it doesn't matter if he humiliates me, but there is no reason to bury the entire Cheng family. Ninth Uncle ,Is not it?"
Old Marquis Cheng glanced nervously at Cheng Yuanjing. The crown prince only gave orders. Who in the world would dare to speak to the prince in such a tone? Old Marquis Cheng sank his face and rebuked: "Eldest daughter, don't be presumptuous."
presumptuous? Where is she arrogant? Cheng Yujin was completely stopped. When chatting, you come and go, who doesn't do things like this, Cheng Laohou even said that she was presumptuous!
No wonder Mrs. Cheng hated the little Xue Shi so much, and Mr. Cheng's partiality was too obvious.
Cheng Yuanjing clearly felt that Miss Cheng looked at him unhappily. Although she didn't show it, she must have rolled her eyes in her heart. Cheng Yuanjing didn't care, and instead asked, "Huo Changyuan's marquis was taken care of by the saint?"
"Oh, this is what happened." Old Marquis Cheng explained, "It's exactly what I told you before. The Holy Master saw that Huo Chang Yuan and the Crown Prince were about the same age at the celebration banquet, so he asked a few questions, and then The people below will take care of the Huo family's title."
Cheng Laohou said that Cheng Yuanjing listened to what Cheng Yuanjing said, but Cheng Yujin didn't know it, so she answered unpreparedly: "In the end, Huo Changyuan is still in the light of His Royal Highness. I don't know what their family is proud of."
Old Marquis Cheng didn't expect this sentence at all, he looked at Cheng Yujin in surprise, his mouth couldn't close. Dare to speak of the crown prince in such a casual tone, and pass by, as if he were a family, and it was too bold.
Cheng Yujin was startled, thinking that she had accidentally made a taboo: "I... Did I say something wrong?"
Cheng Yuanjing on the side laughed softly, although he has been smiling lightly since Cheng Yujin came in, but now it is different, it is the kind of sincere and vocal laughter.
This seemed to be the first time he had expressed his emotions explicitly. Cheng Yujin was inexplicable in surprise, but Old Marquis Cheng suddenly let out a sigh of relief and smiled.
He had talked for so long before, but he never saw the prince express his position at all, but the prince was very reluctant to talk about it. Unexpectedly, the little girl complained casually, but instead it solved the prince's knot and made His Highness laugh.
The prince has experienced human suffering since he was a child, and he became deep and introverted from a very early age, and his joy and anger were invisible. This is indeed a protective color, but the prince has not laughed for a long time. Old Marquis Cheng couldn't even remember when was the last time Cheng Yuanjing laughed sincerely.
Cheng Yujin watched her grandfather change from being an enemy to being relieved, and then seemed to become sad. Cheng Yujin raised her eyebrows and asked with a smile, "Grandfather, ninth uncle, what's the matter?"
"It's nothing." Old Marquis Cheng was relieved, but he suddenly raised his face and taught Cheng Yujin sternly, "Don't arbitrarily discuss government affairs in the future."
Cheng Yujin bowed her head and replied respectfully, "Yes."
Lord Cheng put down a heavy burden in his heart, and suddenly felt relieved, as if the disease on his body was relieved. He said to Cheng Yuanjing, "Jiu Lang, you finally came back to see the old lady."
Old Marquis Cheng's words were not so much an order as a question, but Cheng Yuanjing actually thought about it for a while before standing up and gently nodding to Old Marquis Cheng: "I'm going to see Madam Hou, Marquis, please rest in peace. ."
Old Marquis Cheng was in a hurry to respond: "Hey, good."
Cheng Yujin watched from the side, her eyes narrowed. It's not quite right for the father and son to get along.
Cheng Yuanjing had already got up, and Cheng Yujin said quickly, "Grandfather, I will accompany the ninth uncle to see my grandmother, so I won't disturb your recuperation."
Cheng Yujin quickly chased to the door, Cheng Yuanjing glanced back from the corner of his eyes, not surprised at all.
Based on Cheng Yujin's many years of life experience in the house, the two bid farewell at the same time, and it is obvious that they should go out and walk together. However, after Cheng Yujin put on the red cape and changed her boots, Cheng Yuanjing went out without waiting for her.
Cheng Yujin was surprised for a while, did this person really rise to the fourth rank by himself? Such a careless and unreasonable style of behavior, let alone officialdom, can't even survive in the gate of the mansion
Cheng Yujin hurriedly put on her shoes, took the small copper stove from the maid's hand, and ran out with the curtain lifted.
After walking outside, the cold wind rushed to his face, and the air was filled with the unique coolness of the snow queen. Cheng Yuanjing walked for a while, and suddenly heard a burst of calls behind him: "Ninth uncle."
Cheng Yuanjing was born as the eldest prince. When he was a child, the court was turbulent, but no matter how much the court outside the harem fought, no one dared to treat the eldest son harshly, at least not on the surface. Cheng Yuanjing lived a noble life since he was a child. After the age of three, he was taken by the emperor himself to take care of him. Just after the age of five, the emperor made him the crown prince according to the ancestral system.
No one dared to let Cheng Yuanjing wait, and Cheng Yuanjing never had the habit of waiting.
Someone called him from behind and told him to stop, which was really new to Cheng Yuanjing. It was also a ghost, and Cheng Yuanjing really stopped, lowered his eyes, and watched the fiery figure running step by step.
It's rare that she can run away.
Cheng Yujin didn't know how the person in front of her arranged her in her mind. She stopped in front of Cheng Yuanjing, even if she kept slandering someone so big, but when she asked for others, Cheng Yujin was always very polite. She squinted and smiled, her eyes like crescent moons, warm and beautiful: "Ninth Uncle, you walked so fast."
Cheng Yuanjing still looked at her quietly. Seeing that Cheng Yujin didn't say anything for a long time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince lost his patience and asked bluntly, "What's the matter?"
The expression on Cheng Yujin's face was hard to hold, she blinked, showing a standard ladylike smile: "Ninth uncle just came back, niece was supposed to clean up for ninth uncle, but... but ninth uncle bumped into some mess. "
Cheng Yuanjing knew what she wanted to do after catching up, and he smiled slightly, wanting to see what else the woman could say.
Cheng Yujin smiled with a perfect arc, and her eyes flashed with many temptations: "It is said that the family is ugly, but this matter is not easy to talk about at home. One of my grandmother's heart was broken for me, and my grandfather was still sick. It's really unfilial to bother the elders with these trivial things. Second, marriage matters after all, and it would be fine if I was the only one, but the Marquis Jingyong was the one the emperor personally took care of, and he was also in front of the sage. If we keep the bottom line, we will arrange his private affairs at will, fearing that the reputation of the Yichun Houfu will not be good. Three things…”
Cheng Yujin has always taken one step to count three. No matter what happens, she will definitely occupy the moral high ground. First, she will throw out the high-sounding loyalty, righteousness, benevolence and filial piety. No one can say that she is wrong. Cheng Yujin gave Cheng Yuanjing a high platform according to his usual method, but he didn't expect him to listen for a while, and suddenly said, "Why are you talking so much nonsense."
Cheng Yujin was stunned for a moment. As the eldest girl of Yichun Houfu and a direct beneficiary of the patriarchal system that respects the elders, Cheng Yujin has never heard such words for so many years.
The model girl Cheng Yujin was immediately annoyed: "What did you say?"
