Chapter 496: Don't underestimate the enemy, defend like an iron barrel
"Third Prince, although I love you, I have never thought of having you all to myself. I have already missed the chance to be your principal wife. Now I am extremely satisfied to be by your side as a concubine. I never care about the gossip outside. I only care whether Third Prince has me in his heart. But the Queen doesn't like me. I don't want to cause discord between Third Prince and the Queen because of me. I also want to get the Queen's approval."
"The Queen likes Miss Rong Qingqing and has always wanted her to be your Third Prince's consort. Besides, Miss Rong Qingqing also likes you, the Third Prince. If the Third Prince insists on breaking off the engagement with her, what will she do in the future? Moreover, she has an engagement with the Third Prince, so if we talk about marriage in the future, I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to pick a good family."
Qin Yumo looked like she was considering Rong Qingqing.
"Yumo, you are so kind. Rong Qingqing treated you so well, but you still considered her. If she was half as good as you, I wouldn't hate her so much, and I wouldn't be unable to marry her."
"Third Prince, if you can marry Rong Qingqing as promised, the Queen will naturally not be so angry and will not put all the responsibilities on me. After we get married, I will be filial to the Queen and I believe she will accept me. So, Third Prince, just think of it as my sake and don't cancel the engagement."
"Third Prince, I have loved before, so I know the pain of being unable to love someone. Miss Rong Qingqing is just a bit spoiled and not very willing to lower herself. After she marries the Third Prince, she will no longer be like this. Which woman would still be cold to her husband all day after getting married?"
After Qin Yumo's persuasion, the Third Prince's rebellious mentality was not so strong anymore.
Moreover, he also heard Rong Qingqing say with his own ears that she deliberately ignored him because she thought he only had her in his heart, so he believed that Rong Qingqing had feelings for him.
"Yumo, I'm sorry that I can't marry you as my principal wife. Don't worry, I will make it up to you in the future. Except for your status as my principal wife, I will give you the best in everything else."
"Thank you for your love, Your Highness." Qin Yumo excitedly kissed the Third Prince on the cheek.
The third prince was stunned.
Qin Yumo escaped from his arms and turned to the side.
The third prince immediately pulled her back, held her in his arms again, and kissed her on the lips.
That day, when he was rescuing her from the water, he touched her.
Today I finally got to have a good kiss with Fang Ze.
The kiss lasted until both of them had run out of air. The Third Prince tried his best to suppress the impulse of his male instinct.
"Yumo, if you were a maid in my room, you would not be able to escape today. I would eat you!" After saying that, the third prince pinched Qin Yumo's chin and bit her lips hard.
"It hurts." Qin Yumo cried out.
"In my heart, I am your wife, and I am looking forward to our wedding night."
"I'm looking forward to it too." Qin Yumo responded shyly.
……
The queen discovered that the third prince had changed.
It seemed as if he had returned to his original state, and came to her obediently, saying that he would not let anything go wrong in getting the lanterns for the Qiqiao Festival.
The queen, who had always been very easy to get along with the third prince, felt what some people call retribution these days.
Just the fact that the Third Prince kept changing his ways made her feel tired.
"Qin Yumo does have some tricks up her sleeve." The queen was no longer as disgusted with Qin Yumo.
Prime Minister Qin took advantage of his position and sent many people to guard the riverside where the Lantern Festival was held. He even secretly watched the bamboo racks set up by the people in the Rongguo Mansion.
This bamboo frame is like a tower, built up layer by layer. It is as high as a city wall and is not easy to climb. It really looks like a test for people.
Now, the bamboo frame has been set up and various lanterns are being hung on it.
Rong Yuchuan saw Qin Xiang standing under the shelf and strode over.
"Prime Minister Qin." He bowed and called to Prime Minister Qin.
"Lord Rong." Prime Minister Qin turned around.
"I don't know what Prime Minister Qin is looking at, but does he think there is something wrong with this bamboo rack?"
"To be honest, Lord Rong, the Third Prince is of noble status. Even if you want to test him, you must know when to stop and never let him have any accidents. There will be some safety issues with such a tall bamboo tower, right?"
"Please rest assured, Lord Qin Xiang, there will be absolutely no problem with safety. Besides, the Third Prince is quite skilled, so it is not difficult for him to climb such a tall bamboo tower."
"It's good that Lord Rong knows what's going on."
"If Prime Minister Qin is worried, how about sending someone to check the firmness of the bamboo structure after it is built?"
"Since Lord Rong has said so, I won't refuse."
"Thank you, Prime Minister Qin."
"You're welcome, Lord Rong."
Prime Minister Qin really did as he said. He carefully inspected the bamboo tower and even sent people to climb it to make sure there was no problem.
When the Queen received the news from Prime Minister Qin, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Prime Minister Qin is a thousand-year-old fox.
It is not easy to do something under the nose of Prime Minister Qin.
However, the Queen still gave Prime Minister Qin a message: Don't take it lightly.
Because their opponent is Ji Chuhe.
This Ji Chuhe is not easy to deal with!
Moreover, when he takes action, it is always unexpected.
……
Ji Chuhe sipped the freshly brewed tea.
Yu'er sat beside her and ate snacks.
Ji Chuhe divided the snacks into small pieces and placed them on a plate, letting Youer grab and eat them by herself.
These snacks are all made of goat's milk and are Yuer's favorite.
"Madam, the young master is still young, I'd better feed him. Look, he can't hold it steadily." Mianzhu was a little anxious.
"No, let him eat slowly." Ji Chuhe refused softly.
"Madam, who would let such a young child eat by himself? Not to mention that we have a lot of people to serve him. Even if there is no one to serve him, we wouldn't do this." Mianzhu now completely treats the young master as if he were her own child.
"I don't care about other people's families, but this is how it is in our family." Ji Chuhe lowered his head and looked at Xiao You'er, "Is it delicious?"
You Er nodded immediately, "Delicious!"
This little guy is serious and methodical in everything he does.
Even when eating a pastry, he looks very serious.
Especially when it is so small, it looks so cute that it can simply melt people's hearts.
Nanny Ji also discovered something.
The young master and the young lady were very similar when they were young. It’s not that they looked alike, but their personalities were exactly the same.
"Madam, our young master is about to be one year old. Do you want to hold a birthday party?" Qingluo couldn't help but ask.
The smile on Ji Chuhe's face slowly disappeared and he picked up You'er.
