Chapter 418 Crash
Chapter 418 Crash
Wang Er didn't think much about it. After all, Wu Jinxi was arranged by Meng, and he couldn't afford to offend him.
"Okay, let's go then!"
Taiye Lake in the eastern suburbs.
The Taiye Lake is as calm as a mirror, the water is as green as emerald, and the sunlight pours down obliquely, making the scenery even more enchanting and charming.
In the Idle Pavilion, Ji Qingqing and Luo Jingshen sat opposite each other, admiring the beautiful view of the lake.
She brewed a pot of tea and filled it up for Luo Jingshen herself. She asked tenderly, "How come Your Highness the Crown Prince has time to invite me to enjoy the lake view today?"
Luo Jingshen grabbed Ji Qingqing's hand and looked at her affectionately, "Of course I miss you!"
Ji Qingqing blushed and lowered her head slightly, "Your Highness, you are annoying~"
Luo Jingshen suppressed the darkness in his eyes, curled his lips and chuckled.
"Qingqing, I have already consulted the official matchmaker, and he said that tomorrow is an auspicious day, very suitable for a betrothal. I will go to the Marquis's mansion in person to propose marriage and give you the greatest honor."
Ji Qingqing's eyes lit up and she looked up at him in surprise.
"Your Highness, are you serious?"
Nazheng means proposing marriage and sending betrothal gifts. Ji Qingqing originally thought that their wedding date was nearly two months away, so it was too early for Luo Jingshen to send the betrothal gifts.
I didn't expect that he would propose to me so soon?
It would be a lie for Ji Qingqing to say she was unhappy.
Luo Jingshen looked at her lovingly, "Of course it's true. When have I ever lied to you?"
"I have already prepared the betrothal gifts. Tomorrow you can dress up nicely and wait for me in the mansion."
Luo Jingshen actually had selfish motives in doing this.
He didn't want to propose to Ji Qingqing so early, but some time ago, Xie Liuzheng sent hundreds of boxes of betrothal gifts to Luo Qingge. The ceremonial guard circled the street with loud gongs and drums, and then sent them into the palace in a grand manner.
The grand occasion allowed these two people to steal the limelight.
All the men in the capital city envied Xie Liuzheng, while all the women envied Luo Qingge.
Now that the wedding is approaching, the Rongguo Mansion is already busy decorating the wedding hall. As the crown prince, Luo Jingshen naturally does not want to be outdone by Xie Liuzheng, the useless prince.
It just so happened that he also wanted to see what kind of dowry the Yongning Marquisate would prepare for Ji Qingqing?
Ji Qingqing thought that Luo Jingshen's barbecue restaurant made a lot of money. She thought that it would not be long before the prince would return the original amount of 300,000 dowry to her.
Her heart became more and more excited, but she tried to control herself and smiled gently on her face.
"Then I will hold a banquet in the palace tomorrow, waiting for the arrival of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
The carriage driven by Wu Jinxi also arrived at the edge of Taiye Pond. From a distance of dozens of meters, he saw two figures, one yellow and one purple, sitting opposite each other.
The yellow one is Ji Qingqing, and the purple one is Luo Jingshen.
Sometimes they looked up and chuckled, sometimes they looked at each other sweetly, and sometimes they clinked glasses and drank. The atmosphere between them was relaxed and ambiguous.
Wu Jinxi was stunned, and his eyes looked at the two of them without any hesitation.
"So this is the legendary Crown Prince, Yueyue's future husband. His figure and temperament are truly like a dragon and a phoenix, a figure of heaven."
"If Yueyue marries him, won't she be the queen who is second only to the emperor and above everyone else?"
His eyes were sharp and he was mumbling something in a daze. Wang Erleng, who was standing beside him, couldn't hear a word.
He wanted to tell Wu Jinxi not to stare at the Crown Prince and the Second Miss, as it was against the rules and would offend them.
But when he finished his whispered reminder, there was no response for a long time.
When Wang Er looked up again, he found that Wu Jinxi was no longer around him.
He felt that he was too far away to see the facial features clearly, so he moved closer to see what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked like.
In this way, he could go back and brag to Chen Huaxiu and his two sons about how handsome and dignified the Crown Prince was.
Luo Jingshen naturally also noticed Wu Jinxi. As he sat there, he felt a pair of malicious gazes falling on him.
He looked straight ahead with his sharp gaze and saw a middle-aged man in servant's clothes. He had a very ordinary appearance, but he had a mouthful of big yellow teeth.
Luo Jingshen was angry. He had never seen anyone dare to stare at him so blatantly.
And he is a wretched middle-aged man.
Luo Jingshen put the teacup heavily on the stone table and shouted loudly.
"Someone, bring this man up to me!"
Ji Qingqing still didn't understand what was going on. She only noticed that Luo Jingshen's expression suddenly changed. She asked in confusion, "Your Highness, who are you escorting?"
Luo Jingshen didn't respond to her, and a man's urgent call came to his ears.
"Let me go, let me go, I haven't broken any law, why are you arresting me?"
Ji Qingqing just felt that the voice sounded familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had heard it for a while.
It was not until Wu Jinxi was dragged over by two guards and forced to kneel in front of Luo Jingshen that Ji Qingqing was shocked!
"!!!!!!"
Wu Jinxi, how could it be him!?
Wasn't he sent to the Night King's Palace by me? Why was he here?
Ji Qingqing was extremely confused and had a thousand questions in her mind. She didn't even dare to look at Luo Jingshen's face.
Could it be that the Crown Prince had discovered their relationship? That was why he arrested Wu Jinxi and forced her to confess?
Ji Qingqing was wondering whether she should kneel down and admit her mistake, saying that Wu Jinxi had deceived her and that she was also a victim.
Suddenly, Luo Jingshen kicked Wu Jinxi to the ground.
"Who are you and why are you staring at me furtively?"
Wu Jinxi felt a dull pain in the chest from being kicked, but he didn't dare cry out in pain. He could only support his body, get up, kneel down and kowtow.
"Your Highness, please spare my life. I am a servant of the Yongning Marquis's Mansion. Madam Meng sent me to take the Second Miss back."
"I have never met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I was shocked by his temperament and appearance. I was stunned for a moment. I did not mean to offend His Royal Highness. Please forgive me, Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Ji Qingqing reacted quickly. She breathed a sigh of relief and slapped Wu Jinxi in the face.
"How dare you! Who is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Who are you? How dare a lowly servant like you to look directly at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's face?"
"Get out of here now, you disgraceful person!"
Wu Jinxi's pupils shrank slightly, and he felt a burning pain on his face.
He never dreamed that his own daughter would slap him in the face in front of the prince without any hesitation.
The other party even used such abhorrent words to humiliate him.
Say he is lowly and call him shameful.
For a moment, Wu Jinxi had the urge to expose Ji Qingqing's identity, but when he saw Ji Qingqing smiling and trying to please Luo Jingshen, his thought was shattered.
