"Host, why did you act so quickly this time?" As we were walking on the road, the system couldn't help but ask.
Jinse was in a good mood and kicked the stones on the road.
"Didn't I say that I would make him look good in this life?"
After a pause, she continued: "The emperor wants me to marry the prince. If I don't marry, I have to find a reason that won't lead to punishment."
In his previous life, Nangong Jin knew that he would not end well if he went to the prince's house.
Once the prince gains power, the old emperor will definitely kill the donkey before he ascends the throne.
Complying with the emperor's wishes can only ensure temporary peace.
Xie Xiuming performed very well in front of her, and Nangong Yu kept praising Xie Xiuming in front of Nangong Jin.
Only then did she risk everything and choose him.
The emperor only has three sons, the prince is incompetent, the third prince is a cripple, and the one who has the loudest voice is the second prince Xie Xiuming.
In the previous life, Nangong Jin chose Xie Xiuming, and the other party was even more powerful.
Therefore, Nangong Jin made the emperor jealous, and Xie Xiuming, who wanted to arouse Nangong Jin's hatred for the emperor, was behind it.
In the end, Nangong Jin's mother was sentenced to death.
This time she chose Xie Xiuqi, who seemed uncompetitive.
Although it cannot help the prince, it will not pose a threat to the prince.
As for the marriage, the emperor can think of another way. Doesn't the Nangong family still have Nangong Yu?
Since she couldn't wait to marry the prince and gave up her family for love, she let her reach heaven in one step.
Jinse narrowed her eyes and was in a good mood.
This good mood lasted until the Nangong family was broken.
…
When Jinse came back, he happened to meet a family having lunch.
As soon as she saw her coming back, Nangong Jin's mother rushed over, hugged Jin Se and cried.
"Jin'er, you've been away for four or five days. If Yu'er hadn't come back yesterday and said she saw you, my mother would have thought something happened to you!"
Jinse looked around and saw the female relatives stopping their chopsticks one after another.
Although the men in the family were still holding chopsticks, they didn't touch the rice in their bowls. They all listened to the sound of Jinse with their ears pricked up.
Except for Nangong Yu, she stared at Nangong's figure, especially when the other party hugged Jin Se's waist, with a flash of jealousy in her eyes.
Jin Se's eyes were hurt when he saw her, so he turned to comfort Nangong.
"Mom, I had a fever yesterday. The third prince took me back for treatment, and I got better today."
Nangong was a little anxious and touched Jinse's head: "Are you okay?"
"Mom, sister must be fine," Nangong Yu hugged Jinse's arm and stuck out her tongue playfully, "At that time, I thought sister seemed to be sick, so I wanted to take her home."
"But Sister seemed to be in high spirits, so she took the initiative to reject me and took the Third Prince's car..."
Glancing at Jin Se's clothes, she teased: "Sister, your clothes are different from the ones I saw yesterday."
She winked playfully and faced everyone:
"The Third Prince is a famous beauty in the Jing Kingdom. Yesterday was the first time I saw the Third Prince. It's understandable that I didn't react for a while."
These words were spoken in an innocent tone, but every word in them pointed directly at Jinse's indiscretion.
She was seduced by Xie Xiuqi's beauty, so she disappeared all night.
Nangong's father turned pale when he heard this, and some other people in the family also looked unhappy, but they didn't say anything.
Only Nangong's father slapped his chopsticks on the table.
"Jin'er, if it were normal times, dad would never say anything to you, but now is a critical moment and you are back from the palace."
"Instead of talking about going home, I actually went... to... with the third prince..."
He was so confused that he couldn't say anything, and in the end he just let out a long sigh.
"Everyone in the family is waiting for news about you. You didn't come back all night, and your grandfather was looking at the door in the middle of the night."
Jin Se glanced at Nangong Yu and keenly noticed that there was a piece of skin on her neck, and her skin color was paler than the surrounding areas.
Her red lips curled up: "When I had a fever and fell into coma yesterday, I met my sister in the palace. She was sitting on the second prince's carriage..."
"The third prince arrived later, and I asked him for help. As for the clothes, they were all soaked due to the rain yesterday, so I had to put on dry clothes."
"My sister should pay more attention to her health."
She held down Nangong Yu, who was trying to hide, and rubbed her white part, revealing a red mark.
"You see, in this season when there are not many mosquitoes, if you are bitten, it's better to apply some ointment."
When Jin Se mentioned that Nangong Yu and Xie Xiuming were together, the expressions of Nangong's family all changed.
The Nangong family never participated in the struggle for the throne, and their children never married relatives of the emperor.
This is almost an obvious family rule.
Nangong Yu and Xie Xiuming have always been together secretly, and the Nangong family has never made it public.
Except for a few unmarried children, everyone here has been there before. How could they not recognize the traces on Nangong Yu's body?
Previously, they thought that Jinse, whom Nangong Yu met at the palace gate, had not thought about the palace.
What kind of relationship could a woman be brought into the palace by a prince?
Father Nangong couldn't believe it: "Yu'er, is what Jin'er said true?"
Being exposed by Jin Se to his face, Nangong Yu felt embarrassed and resentful at the same time.
Jinse stayed overnight at the third prince's residence, hung out with the third prince, and had an affair without a matchmaker. No one said anything about such an obvious thing.
But she just met true love, and she couldn't help but fall in love with Xie Xiuming, and she became more affectionate than polite.
I will be scolded by my father in public.
Nangong Yu ran away crying, "Dad, you don't believe me."
After this incident, everyone looked at Jinse.
Under the gaze of everyone, she started eating on the ground.
I was in coma for one day and one night, plus I had been on my knees for three days and three nights.
Except for a drink when it rained, I didn't eat anything the rest of the time.
The reason why he is able to resist until now is because Nangong Jin has been marching and fighting for many years and has good martial arts skills and good health.
Jinse seemed to be eating elegantly, but in fact, she was eating very quickly. In a short while, half of the food on the table was eaten.
Noticing everyone's gaze, she told the truth: "I haven't eaten in four days and I'm a little hungry."
Everyone felt guilty.
Of course they knew why Jinse didn't eat.
…
In the study, Nangong's father, Nangong Jin's grandfather, Nangong An, and Jin Se were sitting opposite each other.
Nangong An is 40 years old this year. In this era, he is considered an old man.
In the past two years, he has been in a bad state of mind, and if there is no big deal at home, it won't bother him at all.
He was very old, with white temples, and he still had the aura of a dragon and a tiger sitting there.
"Jin'er, what did the Holy One say?"
Jinse told the truth about her conversation with the emperor.
Father Nangong shook his head: "Jin'er, although the prince may not be a good husband, life is more important."
"Since the Holy One is willing to spare you the crime of deceiving the emperor, I think it is better..."
"No," Nangong An flashed his eyes, interrupted Nangong's father, and looked at Jin Se, "Jin'er, what do you think?"
Jinse: "How can you allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch? The current Holy Emperor experienced his relatives interfering in politics when he was a child, so he will definitely not cultivate the next powerful relatives."
Nangong An glanced at Jin Se, his eyes full of admiration: "How about Jin'er?"
Jin Se was determined to win, and he said with great momentum: "Of course I have to find another way to find a way out."
Nangong's father was confused: "What riddles are you playing?"
Nangong An glanced at Nangong's father with disgust: "How could I give birth to a son as stupid as yours?"
"If your brothers are still here..." He stopped his grief and turned to Jinse, "Fortunately, you gave birth to a good girl."
