She is a heartthrob who wants to live a good life

Chapter 50: The Scheming Princess 7

Her tears came immediately: "But you are only a prince now, and he is the crown prince. If he wants to kill you in the future, who will protect me if I am left alone?"

Seeing his beloved crying uncontrollably, Xiao Chongling's heart ached, and he quickly asked her, "Yi Cang Cang, how can I protect you?"

Shen Weicang bit his lip: "Brother King Jing can only protect Cang Cang if he holds the power in his hands."

She reached out and held Xiao Chongling's hand, her face full of sorrow: "Cang Cang knows that Brother Jing Wang has no intention of fighting for power, but if I don't have someone to rely on, how can I protect the people I care about? In order to protect Brother Jing Wang, Cang Cang is willing to risk his life."

Xiao Chongling is only seventeen years old this year. Although he is usually steady and decent, he always has some youthful vigor and vitality when facing his sweetheart.

Moreover, Shen Weicang's eyes were red as he said these words, which immediately softened Xiao Chongling's heart. He immediately said, "Don't worry, Cangcang. I will definitely not put Cangcang in danger."

But in the end, he did not make it clear that he would build up forces to fight against Xiao Chongyu.

Shen Weicang was extremely annoyed and felt really disappointed with this fool.

Suddenly, she thought of someone.

***************

Since Chu Mingyue jumped into the lake in the palace that day and was caught in a bit of wind, she fell seriously ill when she returned to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

After walking out of the Imperial Garden alone, she waited for a long time for Luyin and Hongyu to come looking for her, but she met Lumei beside Shen Weicang.

Chu Mingyue was impressed by everyone around Shen Weicang.

In her previous life, she loved Xiao Chongyu to the point of madness, and could not figure out how she was inferior to Shen Weicang. She even observed the maids around her thoroughly.

In my impression, this maid named Lumei seemed to be gentle and low-key. Chu Mingyue finally asked Lumei to help find people and brought back Luyin and Hongyu.

The two were frightened when they saw how miserable she was. It was Lumei who led them to find a palace maid and changed their clothes in a palace room before leaving the palace.

Chu Mingyue was suddenly reborn and fell into the water again. After returning to the Duke Zhenguo Mansion, she developed a high fever and fell into a coma. It was not until the past few days that she recovered completely.

This frightened the entire Zhenguo Mansion family, and they all thought that she was hurt by love. As soon as Chu Mingyue woke up, the Zhenguo Duke's wife hurried to comfort her: "Don't be sad, Yue'er, the emperor intends to make you the crown princess, and your wish will come true soon."

Chu Mingyue woke up from the shock: "Mom, what did you say?"

Madam Chu thought that she was too excited and that was why she reacted so strongly. She was relieved and said, "Don't make such a fuss after you get married. His Royal Highness is the crown prince, and as his crown princess, you have to..."

Chu Mingyue quickly grabbed her hand and interrupted her: "Mother, I'm asking what you just said, the emperor wants to make me the crown princess of Xiao Chongyu?!"

Madam Chu covered her mouth and said, "You are so old and yet you are still so reckless. How can you call the Crown Prince by his name casually?"

Chu Mingyue didn't take it to heart. Not to mention Xiao Chongyu's name, she and this man had been married for ten years in her previous life. She had said everything that should and shouldn't be said, and done everything that should and shouldn't be done.

When the quarrel got intense, she even hit Xiao Chongyu on the head with a vase.

"Mom, I don't want to marry him!"

Mrs. Chu was really confused at this point: "What is Yue'er saying? Is she too happy and confused?"

Chu Mingyue said anxiously: "Mother, everything I said is true. I don't like him anymore, and I don't want to marry him. I will never have anything to do with him again in this life!"

"this......"

After nightfall, Madam Chu relayed her daughter's words to the Duke of Zhenguo with a bewildered look on her face. She couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried: "How could Yue'er change so quickly? Yesterday she was begging you to ask the Emperor for a marriage."

The Duke of Zhenguo shook his head helplessly. His daughter had been spoiled since she was young and was always quick to act.

It would be bad enough that she is so obsessed with the Crown Prince that she has done so many ridiculous things, but she also asked him to ask the Emperor for a marriage. Doesn't she think about the fact that as a subject she has no qualifications to do so?

Not to mention that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not favored by the Emperor. If he were to marry the Crown Prince, the entire Duke Zhenguo's Mansion would be like being tied to this ship. How could it be a good thing if the lives of the entire family were to depend on the Crown Prince's decision?

His daughter is too naive to see it, but he is not a naive child. No matter how well the ambition in the eyes of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is concealed, it can still be seen. Forcing him to marry someone he doesn't want to marry, no matter what the result is, Chu Mingyue's ending will not be good.

However, the emperor's attitude made him uneasy, and the Duke of Zhenguo was caught in the middle.

Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger.

He sighed, "It's a good thing that my daughter has given up on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Before the Emperor makes it clear, we might as well arrange the marriage. No matter what, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not a good match."

"But this is too hasty. It takes time to identify good families."

The Duke of Zhenguo sighed: "As soon as possible, I just hope the emperor will change his mind."

As a parent, no one wants to watch their daughter jump into the fire pit.

As soon as Chu Mingyue recovered, she was taken by her mother and brother to Tanming Temple to worship Buddha.

She vaguely sensed that something was wrong, and her mother even asked Hongyu to dress her up carefully.

Sure enough, after offering incense, Mrs. Chu and Chu Hengqi said they wanted to go to the back mountain to see the scenery. After a while, Chu Hengqi pulled a young man over, and a beautiful lady walked slowly behind them.

Chu Mingyue recognized that this was Nie Feiyun, the second son of General Nie Ji, the Protector of the Nation.

In their previous life, Nie Feiyun and Xiao Chongling were known as civil and military generals in the southwest, and they had a close relationship like brothers.

After Xiao Chongyu ascended the throne, he forced Shen Weicang to marry him, forcing Xiao Chongling to rebel in the southwest, but he was soon killed. Not long after, Nie Feiyun resigned from his post and returned to the capital, where he became the playboy he used to be, doing nothing all day long.

Chu Mingyue didn't expect to see Nie Feiyun here, who had not yet joined the army. At this time, he still had a youthful look on his face, not as idle and listless as he later looked. Instead, he was surrounded by an indescribable youthful spirit.

His appearance was different from Xiao Chongyu's aggressive look. He had fair skin, clear eyes, a high nose bridge, red lips and white teeth. When he smiled, Chu Mingyue felt that her broken heart was as if it was illuminated by the sun and was warm.

Chu Hengqi and Nie Feiyun came over and said, "Mom, this is General Nie's second son, Nie Feiyun. He is my good friend. I happened to meet him today so I went for a walk with him."

Then, he introduced her to Nie Feiyun: "This is my sister. She was ill a while ago. Today we are here to pay homage to the Buddha and fulfill our vows."

Nie Feiyun first clasped his fists and saluted towards Madam Chu: "Greetings, Madam Zhenguogong."

Then he smiled at Chu Mingyue and said, "Hello, Miss Chu."

Madam Chu and Madam Nie smiled at each other and said tacitly, "Young people love to play around. Why don't we go to the side room and rest for a while and let them play around."

At this point, Chu Mingyue still couldn't understand what her mother meant. Chu Hengqi had long disappeared. Only she and Nie Feiyun were left standing under the tree facing each other. She smiled helplessly.

"I didn't know about my mother's arrangement beforehand, so I'm sorry to bother Master Nie."

Nie Feiyun didn't care: "How did Miss Chu know that I came here for business today?"

He pointed to the bamboo forest over there and said, "The sun is shining brightly. Why don't we go to the bamboo forest and talk?"

The two walked slowly towards the bamboo forest. Chu Mingyue said as they walked, "I know that Prince Jing has been accompanying Princess Ji Fu to pray at Tanming Temple recently. Master Nie is here to see His Royal Highness Prince Jing, right?"

Xiao Chongyu stood in a pavilion in the distance with his hands behind his back, looking down at the scene.

Wei Yun said with a smile: "You can rest assured now. It seems that Miss Chu has really given up on you!"
