She is a heartthrob who wants to live a good life
Chapter 57: The Scheming Princess 14
The two entered the house and sat down at the table.
Seeing that Chu Mingyue had no intention of pouring tea for him, Lin Rongyin felt dissatisfied, but his face was full of guilt: "I haven't seen you for a long time, and I am also uneasy. I know that I have done something wrong, and I really don't have the face to come in front of you."
Chu Mingyue seemed to have no idea what she was talking about: "Rong Yin, what do you mean?"
Seeing that she didn't respond, Lin Rongyin had no choice but to continue testing. She sighed:
"On the birthday of His Royal Highness, I gave you that bad idea because I saw that you were in love with His Royal Highness but to no avail. I regretted giving you the medicine. I have been worried since that day."
As she spoke, she looked carefully at Chu Mingyue's expression:
"Your Highness is the crown prince anyway. If you act carelessly, you could be killed. I'm relieved because I haven't heard anything in the past two months. It seems you've thought it through and didn't do anything, right?"
Chu Mingyue smiled calmly: "Rong Yin, you are right. I have now completely figured it out. You don't have to worry about me anymore. I have already been engaged to Mr. Nie, the second son of the General's Mansion."
The fake smile on Lin Rongyin's lips froze: "What?"
"Today is the auspicious time, and the Nie family will come to propose marriage."
Lin Rongyin couldn't help but blurt out, "How can you get engaged to someone else?"
Chu Mingyue smiled faintly, "Why can't I get engaged to someone else? I'm no longer obsessed with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, aren't you happy for me?"
Lin Rongyin barely maintained a concerned expression on his face, and said in an embarrassed tone:
"That's not what I meant. It's just that you clearly like His Royal Highness the Crown Prince so much, why do you suddenly want to get engaged to Second Young Master Nie? Are you forced into this?"
"Do you think I'm being forced?" Chu Mingyue asked back, "Second Master Nie and I are a good match, aren't you happy for me?"
Chu Mingyue asked this question again, and Lin Rongyin had no choice but to agree with her: "You are my good friend, so of course I am happy for you."
Chu Mingyue changed the subject and sighed faintly: "In fact, I retreated only after seeing the situation clearly."
Lin Rongyin saw the sorrow in her eyes and asked with concern, "What do you mean by retreating when faced with difficulties?"
"You don't know," Chu Mingyue lowered her voice, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince already has someone he likes, so naturally he can't see anyone else."
Lin Rongyin was wondering why the emperor's plan to select a princess for Xiao Chongyu had suddenly stopped. When she heard Chu Mingyue say this, she secretly wondered if the prince had asked the emperor for favor.
But she had never heard that the emperor would issue an order to grant her a marriage.
"So, Mingyue, you know who the Crown Prince likes?"
Her curiosity was immediately aroused.
Chu Mingyue smiled bitterly: "Let's not talk about this. It's not glorious to say it out loud."
Lin Rongyin was really itching to tell the truth, so she pulled her and begged, "Mingyue, you don't want to say anything after all this, what's the reason? Just tell me, I won't spread it."
She gritted her teeth in her heart, wanting to know which bitch seduced the Crown Prince.
Chu Mingyue pretended to be embarrassed, and after hesitating for a long time, she said hesitantly: "You must swear not to tell anyone else."
Lin Rongyin raised his hand without hesitation and swore: "If I spread this, I will die miserably!"
Chu Mingyue then whispered in his ear: "The Crown Prince's sweetheart is Princess Ji Fu Shen Weicang of the Qingyang Palace."
Lin Rongyin's eyes widened in surprise, "How could it be her?!"
"Shh!"
Chu Mingyue quickly covered her mouth: "I told you not to let anyone else know!"
Lin Rongyin stared with a funny look on her face: "Mingyue, you must be mistaken. Everyone knows that the marriage between Princess Ji Fu and His Royal Highness Prince Jing is a done deal. How could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."
Chu Mingyue was about to cry: "Why would I lie to you? If you observe carefully during the autumn hunt next month, you will know whether what I said is true or not."
Lin Rongyin still looked dazed until he stood up and left.
Chu Mingyue asked Luyin to see her off. The sad expression on her face disappeared, leaving only a hint of hatred beneath the calmness.
A red figure walked out from the inner room behind the screen, and said in a teasing voice: "Miss Chu, are you unable to praise me in front of me? Why don't you praise me a few more times?"
Chu Mingyue poured a cup of tea and took a sip: "After hearing so many compliments, I'm sure Second Master Nie is already tired of them."
"Not necessarily."
Nie Feiyun sat down without hesitation and poured himself a cup of tea: "At least I still want to hear Miss Chu's praise."
Chu Mingyue was slightly distracted as she watched him drink tea as if it were wine.
Thinking that this man's skin was so fair and would inevitably become rough on the battlefield, she actually felt a little bit of pity in her heart.
Nie Feiyun finished his tea but did not put down the cup. Instead, he held it in his hand and played with it, with a playful smile on his face: "You just said those things to her, are you planning to use her to deal with Shen Weicang?"
Ever since Chu Mingyue was punished by Xiao Chongyu in Tanming Temple, her heart was hurt again, and she agreed to Nie Feiyun's deal on a whim.
Nie Feiyun saw that she was acting on impulse and advised her to think again. Even if it was a deal, he didn't want to marry someone who was unwilling to do so.
But Chu Mingyue was still determined to cooperate with him, with only one condition, that he would help her expose Shen Weicang's true face in front of Xiao Chongyu.
Chu Mingyue had never thought that the woman Xiao Chongyu loved so deeply would be such a narrow-minded and vicious person. She didn't know what had happened to make her unhappy, and she would push herself into the water.
Originally it was just a vague suspicion, but after listening to Nie Feiyun's analysis, Chu Mingyue became convinced that Shen Weicang was definitely not the pure and kind woman that Xiao Chongyu described.
She wanted to see how exciting Xiao Chongyu's reaction would be after he knew the true face of the person she loved deeply.
Nie Feiyun agreed with interest.
Thinking about the person Xiao Chongyu was in a hurry to meet in the bamboo forest that day, it was probably Princess Ji Fu.
Then, it was she who eavesdropped on his conversation with Chu Mingyue in the bamboo forest.
No wonder my good friend Xiao Chongling came to me to ask about this matter, it turned out that Shen Weicang wanted to know.
But he couldn't understand why Shen Weicang was interested in his marriage.
Perhaps, what she was interested in was not her own marriage, but Chu Mingyue's marriage.
When he thought about it, he realized that he had never seen what Shen Weicang looked like before, and he couldn't help but become curious.
What kind of person is she that could attract both Xiao Chongyu and Xiao Chongling to fall in love with her?
If her true identity could be exposed, it would be a good thing for his good friend, so that Xiao Chongyu and Shen Weicang would not collude to harm Xiao Chongling after he left Beijing.
Shen Weicang ran out of the gate of Qingyang Palace happily and held Xiao Chongling's arm affectionately: "Brother Jingwang, I will be with you for the next few days. You promised to hunt a white fox for me to make fox fur!"
In preparation for this hunt, Shen Weicang specially wore a riding suit that was convenient for movement. The narrow-sleeved, fiery red riding suit clearly outlined her exquisite figure, and she also carried a small crossbow in a very formal manner.
