In the carriage, Ye Yining looked nervously at Jun Jiuji who was very close at hand.
Obviously the carriage is so big, why can’t we sit farther away?
"Xiao Ning'er, are you afraid of me?" Jun Jiuji's eyes darkened, and with a slight exertion of his hand, he pulled the person into his arms.
"I...I didn't." Ye Yining immediately denied.
In the past, she could raise her hand and wave a whip when she saw him, so how could she be afraid of him?
"You didn't want to marry me on a whim this time. You won't regret it, right?"
Jun Jiuji seemed to have asked this casually, but in fact, after she said it, his eyes had been locked on her, and he did not want to hear a negative answer.
He has already decided in his heart that even if she wants to regret it, he will not give her this chance again.
Ye Yining could hear the warning in his tone, and when she thought that she still had revenge to take, she tried to look into his eyes calmly.
"I'm serious. I'm sorry for what happened before!"
Her voice was very soft when she said the last sentence, with a deep sense of guilt.
Jun Jiuji was slightly startled, this girl would actually apologize to him?
He lifted her chin and asked her to look at him.
"I'm serious about you too."
Ye Yining blinked in surprise, is he...serious?
Jun Jiuji raised his hand to caress her eyes that were as clear and lively as a deer, "I will be with my father later, no matter what happens, you must stand firm. Remember, I am the one you want to marry, do you understand?"
”
Ye Yining seemed to be confused and nodded obediently, "I understand."
Only when she actually entered the palace did she know why Jun Jiuji said those words before.
Because they were not the only ones in the imperial study at this time, there was also that scumbag Mo Huanchong.
What's even more disgusting is that he actually told the emperor that he and she were in love with each other, and they even exchanged love tokens and made a private commitment for life.
The emperor looked at the little girl standing next to Xiaojiu, frowned and asked: "Ye Yining, do you have anything to say?"
Ye Yining glared at Mo Huanchong, who looked like a dog but was indifferent, "What is the token of love you are talking about? Why didn't I know? When I said this, I thought of a lot of things. Mo
Huan Chong, where is the Kirin soft armor you borrowed from me last time? When will you return it to me? The emperor gave it to my father. My father felt sorry for me and was afraid that I would get hurt, so he gave it to me. Please let Su Yuer inform you
I said you were going to the border to do a dangerous special mission, so that you could have more protection and return it to me when you come back. Now that you have been back for more than half a year, why don't you return the things to me?"
When Mo Huanchong heard this, he was suddenly stunned.
Did she call him Mo Huanchong?
Didn't she call him Brother Mo before?
It was true that he borrowed the Kirin Soft Armor, but why did she say that in front of the emperor?
When the emperor knew that the Qilin Soft Armor was at Mo Huanchong's place, his face suddenly darkened.
Jun Jiuji also turned his head slightly and glanced at Xiao Ning'er thoughtfully.
"Why, you don't want to pay it back, right?" Ye Yining angrily glared at Mo Huanchong who was trying to argue.
Mo Huanchong endured the anger in his heart and said: "How could it be? I just forget about it as soon as there are too many things."
Ye Yining breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, "That's good. If you don't return it, how will I face my father and the emperor? By the way, the two-color purple jade stone you took from me last time
What? You said you asked craftsmen to make jewelry for me. It’s been more than a year, and I haven’t seen even half of the hosta. Give it back to me. The Queen Mother’s birthday is coming soon, and I plan to ask King Ji to help me find it.
Craftsmen make jade carvings."
Mo Huanchong's face darkened when he heard this. Wasn't that two-color purple jade stone a New Year's gift from her?
The emperor became a little more interested at this time, "Little girl, the two-color purple jade stone you are talking about is the purple jade stone that was auctioned by Qianbi Pavilion last year and is half a person's height?"
Ye Yining nodded, "Yes! It's the two-color purple jade rough stone. My father didn't have that much money, and my uncle paid for it for me at the time! I originally wanted to ask someone to make many, many jewelry, which can be used
I came to see a lot of people off. But after Mo Huanchong took it away, there was nothing to say. I was so angry, but I was too embarrassed to get angry."
Mo Huanchong really couldn't control it at this time. He almost gritted his teeth and said: "You gave me that rough stone, saying it was a New Year's gift."
Ye Yining's eyes widened in astonishment, "Who told you? I just promised Su Yu'er that I would give your mother a set of jewelry, so why would I give you a whole piece of two-color purple jade stone? I didn't
Silly, that was one of the dowries my uncle gave me."
Mo Huanchong's expression suddenly froze. What happened to Ye Yining? Why is it different from usual?
While he was still dazed, Ye Yining knelt down aggrievedly, "Your Majesty, can you help me? I really have no intention of giving him such a valuable thing. I just thought he was the same as my father.
The kind of upright and righteous person who speaks with spit and nails, will not take advantage of others."
"The winter before last, he asked his daughter to borrow a million taels of silver notes, saying that he wanted to buy food for disaster relief. He would pay it back to me when the court allocated the money, but he didn't pay it back to me. And in January of this year
, Su Yuer and Mo Huanchong told me that they wanted to buy a batch of medicinal materials to send to the front line, and asked me to borrow money from my uncle to help them turn around, and I also lent them five hundred thousand taels. But I thought what Mo Huanchong meant,
It seems like I don’t want to pay it back.”
"Silver is an external possession. If you don't want to return it, don't return it. Anyway, it is given to the frontier warriors and to help the victims. However, the two-color purple jade rough stone, the Kirin soft armor, and the Lingxing dagger must be returned to me. Please, Your Majesty
Make the decision for me!"
Jun Jiuji's eyes were slightly cold. He had given the Lingxing dagger to Xiao Ning'er before, but the girl changed hands and gave it away.
Although he was extremely dissatisfied with Mo Huanchong and wanted to kill him, he remained calm on his face, "Didn't my father allocate funds for disaster relief and sending medicinal materials to the front line? And the prince was responsible for this."<
/p>
The emperor's expression was also very bad at this time. He looked at Mo Huanchong with a sullen face, "Get out! What Ye Yining said, together with 1.5 million taels of silver, will be delivered within an hour."
Mo Huanchong didn't dare to refute, so he rolled and crawled out of the imperial study room.
The emperor looked at Ye Yining, and then his eyes fell on Xiaojiu.
"Are you planning to ignore the past grudges and make up your mind to marry Ye Yining?"
Jun Jiuji stretched out her hand to pull Xiao Ning'er up and looked at her father seriously, "Father, I want to marry her!"
The emperor looked at his son and waved his hands in annoyance, "That's all. Protect the person you choose!"
"I grind ink for my father."
Jun Jiuji calmly walked forward to the Long Case and took the initiative to help the emperor grind the ink.
Obviously, he meant for the emperor to write the marriage edict now.
"You are quite positive at this time." The emperor glanced at him, but still wrote the imperial edict of marriage.
Ye Yining stared blankly at the way Jun Jiuji got along with the emperor. Who said that King Ji was not favored?
The scene in front of me is not what an ordinary prince would see when getting along with the emperor.
"Xiao Ning'er, please sit down and have a rest. Don't be tired." Although Jun Jiuji was staring at himself writing the marriage edict, he was always paying attention to Xiao Ning'er from the corner of his eyes.
The emperor glanced at Ye Yining and said, "Xiao Dezi, please give me a seat."
The chief eunuch who was guarding outside quickly brought a chair to Ye Yining.
