Qiao Yuning's face lit up, "Princess, are you really willing to help me? I am committed to the princess for the rest of my life."
Jiahe sneered in his heart, but his face showed a rare gentleness, "What are you talking about? If I don't protect you, who will?"
She said and thought for a while, "But this matter must be put aside first. I have to think about it."
Qiao Yuning was originally full of expectations, but after hearing this, she was a little disappointed.
Who would have thought that Jiahe's next sentence would be, "You've been talking for a long time, are you thirsty?"
Then he seemed to suddenly remember, "By the way, this tea was just brought here from the palace. The prince-in-law hasn't even drunk it yet. Aunt Qiao happens to be here. Why don't you bring it to the prince-in-law?"
Qiao Yuning was stunned. It was ridiculous to say that she was determined to marry Wen Liang, even if she didn't hesitate to be a concubine.
But after being married for so long, she had only seen him a few times, and the two of them had never even been alone together.
But now there was finally an opportunity, but it was a reward from Princess Jiahe.
For the first time, she began to doubt whether what her aunt had told her was really correct.
Is it true that as long as you have the means to win a man's heart, you can live a better life?
Feeling upset, he carried the tray to Wen Liang's study.
Seeing her coming, Wen Liang was surprised at first, and then quickly looked at the yard outside the window, "Why are you here?"
Originally, he thought he would be surprised, or at least cherished, but it was impossible for him to know anything about how she was doing during this period.
But no, his first reaction was panic.
Qiao Yuning suddenly felt a great anger in her heart, but she didn't know who this anger was directed at.
Is this the man she likes?
In front of Princess Jiahe, she has no self-esteem or temper at all, she is so weak and unbearable!
But she still suppressed her emotions and tried her best to show a gentle smile, "The princess asked me to come here."
Hearing her words, Wen Liang's face was filled with disbelief, and then came a huge surprise.
He walked up quickly, put aside the tray in Qiao Yuning's hand, held her shoulders with both hands, and looked at her face in surprise, "Are you serious? The princess asked us to meet?"
He was still so eager, and there was a lot of love in his eyes. From his words, Qiao An could tell that there must be something going on between him and Jiahe.
But Qiao Yuning was surprised to find that her heart was not disturbed at all.
Even when Wen Liang hugged her, she felt a little nauseous.
"Ning'er, we... haven't seen each other for a long time. You... why don't you look happy?"
Qiao Yuning was startled, came to her senses, raised her head and looked at him with an aggrieved look, "Fourth Master, are we going to live like this in the future? Even if we meet once, we need the princess's approval. What we said before
, don’t they all count?”
Seeing his beloved crying, Wen Liang's face was full of heartache, "No, no, Ning'er, believe me, we will be able to stay together forever in the future, I will belong to you alone, please be patient first,
Princess……"
He thought for a while, seemed to be hesitating, and finally said: "The princess has a bad temper, but she has no ill intentions towards us."
Qiao Yuning's heart moved and she raised her eyes to look at him, "Really?"
Wen Liang said no more. He helped Qiao Yuning sit down next to him, "Okay, it's the princess's matter after all, so we can't talk much about it. You'd better tell me about you! I haven't been allowed to see you.
How's it going with you there?"
Even though she didn't want to admit it, Qiao Yuning also knew that Wen Liang was no longer the man she used to be able to manipulate at will.
Even though she was very curious, she still suppressed her impulse and treated him tactfully and gently.
But when his hands began to move dishonestly into her clothes, she still couldn't stand it, so she tried her best to pretend to be shy and pushed away.
However, Wen Liang was so impatient by her push that he simply pushed her directly onto the desk and started to lift her skirt.
"Ning'er, you are mine now. We are one body. This is how we should be separated. You don't have to be afraid of people bumping into you."
Qiao Yuning looked at the beams on the top, feeling cold in her heart.
This is her first time, right here?
Is it so hasty and unbearable?
At this moment, she suddenly remembered her dream when she was young.
At that time, Qiao Yuyan had not yet appeared. Mrs. Xu doted on her, her father treated her well, and her mother accompanied her tenderly. Everyone under her was respectful and obedient to her.
Every time she went out and looked at the way other people looked at her, she always thought that she wanted to marry the best son in the capital.
Ten miles of red makeup, everything is majestic.
Her husband must be the best among men, and she wanted to stand side by side with him, but in the boudoir, he doted on her alone and gave her all kinds of love.
How passionate and affectionate her wedding night must have been!
Two people should sleep in a soft bed with their necks crossed.
But at this time, apart from the physical pain, there was only a coldness that penetrated her whole body.
Amidst the man's heavy breathing, Qiao Yuning suddenly remembered that this was not when she was young.
In fact, she is not yet fourteen years old.
It was only two years ago, but now it suddenly seems like a dream.
Wenliang didn't last long, and Qiao Yuning even felt that she had to grit her teeth and endure it.
Even though I felt sick in my heart, my face was full of shyness, as if I didn't dare to look at him.
Wen Liang's eyes were full of satisfaction. He kissed her forehead, then he stood up and went to the hand washing rack to get a handkerchief to clean himself up.
He didn't even help her up.
Qiao Yuning sneered in her heart, then she stood up with support on the table, enduring the extreme discomfort, and straightened her clothes.
It's just that her bun was messed up, and she couldn't comb it back without anyone's help. She could only tuck it up as much as possible to make herself look less embarrassed.
"It's getting late, I should go back."
She said timidly in a soft voice.
Wen Liang also tidied himself up, turned around and walked over, his face full of reluctance, but he finally hugged her, "Well, you go ahead!"
Qiao Yuning was stunned, "Am I just going to leave like this?"
Wen Liang actually smiled, then stretched out his hand to scratch her nose, "Little fool, you are my aunt now. If something happens between the two of us, who else can say anything? Others just saw me.
It’s just a favor to you.”
Qiao Yuning almost shed tears at these words, but she finally swallowed the bitterness in her throat and said, "Okay, I'll go back then."
Wen Liang seemed to be still immersed in the joy just now, and he didn't even notice that she had changed her name.
Qiao Yuning numbly left the study and walked out of the courtyard. She saw the strange looks and mocking looks of the maids in the princess's courtyard.
The eldest maid in front of the princess, Jielan, appeared on the steps, "The princess said that my aunt is tired, so there is no need to say hello anymore. Go back and have a good rest!"
The word "tired" almost pulled Qiao Yuning's face off and stomped it on the ground. She could almost hear the whispers and giggles of others.
But she could only grit her teeth and endure it.
In a short time, the news that she was married to Wen Liang's study secretly spread throughout the house.
After Yuan Bao heard this, he immediately ran back and told Qiao Yuyan.
