At the same time she recognized Chen Congyun, Chen Congyun reported his family name and said, "My daughter Chen Congyun, my father Chen Bing, the Ministry of Industry Du Shuiqing Officials and Zuo Shilang."
She looked at Jiang Rao, and there was some astonishment in her eyes, "Fourth Miss, can I take a step to talk?"
Jiang Rao thought that her father was Chen Bing, so she couldn't relax her guard for a while, and suggested: "It's still snowing, come with me to Shuxiang Palace?"
Bringing Chen Congyun into Shuxiang Palace, she will not be afraid of what she will do to her.
Chen Congyun nodded in agreement.
Shuxiang Palace, Nuan Pavilion.
Although it was Chen Congyun who approached her, since the Nuan Pavilion was in Shuxiang Palace, Jiang Rao put herself as the master and asked the palace servants to bring tea and snacks, and treated the guests seriously.
The delicately shaped snacks were placed in front of her, but Chen Congyun was not interested, she lowered her head, her eyes were a little uneasy, she was dull for a while, then suddenly raised her head, with tears in her eyes, "Miss Jiang, help me. "
Crying when speaking.
Jiang Rao has been waiting for her to speak first, and after waiting for a long time, she was a little startled by this sudden sentence, paused for a while, and quickly asked the servants on the side to wipe away the tears for Chen Congyun, she asked her softly , "How do you want me to help you?"
Chen Congyun shed a lot of tears, choked up and said, "I don't want to marry the Ninth Prince."
Jiang Rao's face became serious.
Chen Congyun looked up at Jiang Rao with tears in his eyes, and she stared at Jiang Rao vaguely, "I found the girl only when I had nowhere to go, I know, you want to marry the Ninth Prince, can you quickly ask your father to go to the Holy One to beg for her?" A sacred decree for marriage."
She looked at Jiang Rao, her eyes showed extreme prayer and envy.
Although the foundation of Ning'anbo's house is much better than hers, there are families in Jinling that are richer than Ning'anbo's, but the girls from those families all live in the deep house compound, and all of them carry a name on their backs. The shackles of the family, no one can truly live freely like Jiang Rao.
Jiang Rao was taken aback, "How did you know that I wanted to marry the Ninth Prince?"
This matter should only be known to the people in her family and her aunt.
Chen Congyun looked at Jiang Rao enviously, feeling so sad that he couldn't speak.
Jiang Rao took the handkerchief from the maid's hand, and wiped away Chen Congyun's tears in person.
But just as she stretched out her hand, Chen Congyun hid back as if frightened.
It looked like she was bullying her.
Jiang Rao sighed, "Don't cry first, you explain the matter clearly, then I will know how to help you."
"You promised to help me?"
Chen Congyun's eyes lit up, he raised his hand to wipe away his tears, and said in a choked voice: "My father was drunk last night, I wanted to take advantage of his drunkenness to make him promise me to marry the person I want to marry , but he scolded me and said that my marriage was about to be snatched away by you."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Jiang Rao with a little surprise in her eyes, but she was not as scared as before.
Chen Bing's original words when he was drunk were naturally not that simple.
He had been in trouble recently, and wanted to say that the model of the Yunling plank road was made by him, but Emperor Zhaowu had already seen the drawings drawn by Rong Ting, and since the emperor knew about it, how dare he take the credit for his son? Even if Xu Guozhang assured him, he didn't have the guts. It's just that the credit that he thought he could get it disappeared, and he was upset. He scolded Jiang Xingzhou for raising Jiang Rao to be domineering. A series of swear words made Chen Congyun terrified.
In addition, the reputation of Jiang Xingzhou's daughter slave in Jinling has been passed down for a long time, she thought... Jiang Rao was really a domineering girl just like her father scolded her.
If she hadn't been desperate, she would never have thought of coming to Jiang Rao.
Jiang Rao was a little surprised, "Do you have someone else in mind?"
A blush rose on Chen Congyun's face, he lowered his head, and gave a soft "hmm".
Jiang Rao rolled her eyes, she was curious, she wanted to know who Chen Congyun liked.
"Can you...can you tell me?" she asked tentatively.
Chen Congyun hesitated for a moment.
Although Jiang Rao didn't promise her that she wouldn't go out and talk nonsense, but she took a look at her and felt that she was someone she could trust.
Jiang Rao's eyes were clean, like a penetrating and beautiful crystal, Chen Congyun looked at her, and suddenly made up his mind, "It's the third prince."
"I came here today with the intention of breaking the boat, and I won't hide anything from you."
Jiang Rao was surprised.
She had seen the third prince in the academy, but she didn't have much of an impression. She tried hard to think about it, but she only remembered a vague figure. His appearance was far inferior to Rong Ting's, his talent was no better than Pei Songyu's, his personality was gentle and cowardly, and he was indeed not outstanding enough.
Chen Congyun saw Jiang Rao's surprise, as if she couldn't stand her sweetheart being questioned by others, she felt aggrieved, "He is a very good person."
She confided in her heart: "A few months ago, I went to the mountain for summer vacation and was almost bitten by a dog. He saved me..."
The first time I talked with Chen Congyun, I heard her talk about so many personal matters, Jiang Rao always felt unreal that she was listening to the story, a little bit unsure, but after thinking about it, even if she believed her words, It was not hindered or damaged, so I didn't think too much about it, and believed her words.
But she frowned, "The grace of saving your life and your love...can it be the same thing?"
If it's the same thing, if a man saves her in the future, he will promise him with his body
"I didn't fall in love with him at first sight because he saved my life, but later..." Chen Congyun blushed, and suddenly couldn't continue, "During the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, he secretly gave me a purse, and refused to give it to me because of me." I don't like Jinling, he has already told the emperor that he wants to go to a remote fiefdom to be a prince, he has done so much for me, I,... "
"I don't want to let him down."
She raised her hands to cover her face in shame.
Although Jiang Rao was very curious about what she wanted to say after the sentence "later", but seeing that Chen Congyun was too shy, she resisted her curiosity and didn't ask so many questions.
Chen Congyun suddenly felt as if something had been unloaded from his heart, and heaved a long sigh of relief, "I have never said these words to others, and this is the first time I have said them today, and I will never hide them from others in the future."
Jiang Rao glanced at the back of Chen Congyun's hand, "On your hand..." Chen Congyun hurriedly put his hand down, covering the scar on his palm.
But Jiang Rao had already seen it, "Why are there so many injuries?"
Chen Congyun lowered his bitter eyes, "I have the reputation of being a talented girl, but Tianzi is not very intelligent, she can even be regarded as dull. In order for me to win him over, my father has treated me extremely harshly since I was a child. Forcing me to know the rhythm, forcing me to understand piano and chess, asking me to be able to write and draw, otherwise I will be beaten by a ruler. I have done everything, and I have escaped the beating all these years. Last night, again... "

"I have listened to his words for fifteen years, only marriage." She was choked up again, lowered her head, and there was a touch of determination in her always submissive eyes, "I don't want to listen to him anymore, he taught me There are so many etiquette and ethics in the book, but he wants me to help the queen and do treacherous things, I can't bear it."
Chen Congyun looked at Jiang Rao with some embarrassment, "I let you see my joke. But Miss Jiang, only you can help me."
After hearing so much, Jiang Rao still didn't understand how she could help Chen Congyun.
She can't convince her father by herself.
Chen Congyun looked at her hesitant and tangled expression, and said: "I heard from my father last night that when he visited your house, your father already wanted to marry you to the Ninth Prince."
Jiang Rao slightly parted her lips in surprise, "Really?"
Chen Congjun nodded immediately, "Can you leave the palace quickly and tell your father to ask for an imperial decree to grant marriage earlier? I'm afraid that my father will join the queen in a few days, so hurry up and win the marriage grant first." decree."
…
The next day, it was sunny and snowy, and Jiang Rao was standing alone on the swing in the imperial garden. When she saw Rong Ting's figure, she ran over, put the sleeve stove in his arms, and said excitedly, "I can married you."
Rong Ting stared at her, as if heavy snow had crushed a tree branch, and his vision was chaotic.
"What you said is true?" His voice was hoarse, Jiang Rao nodded, "As long as what Chen Congyun said is true."
Chen Congyun
Rong Ting frowned slightly, "When have you seen her?"
"Yesterday." Jiang Rao said, "She came to me, and I was speculating with her. She told me that my father had softened his attitude and wanted to promise me."
After thinking about it for a while, he felt that this scene was a bit weird.
How could she be speculative with someone who was almost engaged to him
"Yesterday she came to my aunt's palace, and she wanted me to help her. She is actually interested in your third brother, so I wish we could get engaged earlier."
Jiang Rao listened to the story all day yesterday, and she still felt lingering when she thought about it, she suddenly felt a little emotional, "I didn't expect that the third prince looks a bit cowardly, but he is actually a responsible person."
Rong Ting felt harsh.
His third brother should not be the one who almost had a marriage contract with her when he was a child, but even if he knew this, he still felt that her praise of other men was extremely harsh.
Jealousy stirred, his tone was difficult, and he looked up aggrieved, "I know that some of my royal brothers almost got engaged to you."
"But since you are going to be engaged to me now, you only think about me, okay?"
His tone was too humble, if there was a tail behind him, he would be begging for mercy.
Jiang Rao didn't notice the crazy possessiveness hidden in his eyes at all, she gave him a puzzled look.
Brother? who
"You have been away from Jinling for too long, but you don't know what kind of people my imperial brothers are. They are not good, really not good. You said that my third brother is very affectionate, but he is not only good to Miss Chen, he I have already had Tongfang and concubine rooms, and several of my imperial brothers have them."
With pure and innocent eyes, he said words to slander others, with a little bit of reprimand, a little bit of disdain in his expression, and more, a kind of inexplicable comparison.
"When you were young, the one you were almost engaged to was not a good person. You wouldn't want to marry such a person, would you?"
His voice was deep but weak, as if he was coaxing and coaxing Jiang Rao to say "yes".
"Your words are indeed reasonable." Jiang Rao pondered for a moment, then raised her puzzled eyes, "But the person who almost got engaged to me, isn't it you?"
Could it be that he knew that Chen Congyun didn't want to be engaged to him, felt that he was not threatened by Empress Jiahe, so he didn't want to be engaged to her, and found a reason to refuse her politely
Otherwise, how could anyone scold him for not being a good person
Thinking of this possibility, Jiang Rao opened his eyes wide, "Don't you... don't want to be engaged to me?"
