Chapter 180 The Prince's Motivation Is Too Simple
Chapter 180 The Prince’s Motive is Too Pure
Xue Mei sent Wen Zhao back with a few candies.
Wen Zhao is as old as Xue Mei, and is eighteen years old. No matter what era he is in, he is a half-aged child. In addition, he is pure in nature, ignorant of the world, has no scheming, and is more like a child.
It's not difficult to fool him.
After a few words, Xue Mei comforted Wen Zhao.
It has been three days since Xue Mei retired from the marriage ceremony.
This is not known to everyone in the world - Xue Mei is not a famous socialite himself. Jingli knows her deeds, but she is not very clear about her person.
When it comes to her medical skills, others will use "the ancestor of the Lu family" to replace her. As for the ancestor herself, many people have not contacted her with the eldest lady of the Yongning Marquis' Mansion.
Also, there are not many gimmicks to talk about when Xue Mei withdraws from her bride.
She reached an agreement with the Wen family.
Xue Mei returned more betrothal gifts than the Wen family gave, and the Wen family did not suffer any losses; the business she gave to the Wen family could make money, and it was a long-term business.
The Wen family said to the public: "The Hou Mansion concealed the eldest lady's birth date and horoscope at that time, but now the eldest lady has only said it. Once the eight characters are combined, it is actually incompatible."
With the divorce letter written by Xue Chi, the Wen family does not need to explain anything to Yongning Hou.
Yongning Hou was very angry and sent someone to question him. After all, he did not say the wrong character at the beginning.
The Wen family took out the divorce letter written by his eldest son, but the Marquis of Yongning didn't care.
In this way, the Wen family quit.
It is because the Wen family doesn’t want Xue Mei, and the Wen family should be despised; but insiders say that Xue Mei has been named the county lord, and it is very likely that she looks down on the Wen family.
Xue Mei suffered a loss on the surface, but actually took advantage.
If public opinion cannot stand in line, it is hard to say much. It is often angering thing that will trigger big discussions.
Both she and the Wen family have benefited from Xue Mei's affairs and suffered losses. The spectators could not find resonance, so they dispersed.
Xiao Jingcheng picked up the teacup, and the elite lights in his eyes were restrained in the mist of the tea: "Things are done very quickly."
"I've wanted to do it for a long time." Xue Mei smiled, "I have been writing my elder brother's divorce letter for a long time, but I haven't taken it out. Now it's almost the end of the year and the opportunity is right, so I've retired."
Xiao Jingcheng nodded: "This is great. Wen Zhao is not worthy of you, you can find a better one."
"Like you?" Xue Mei asked with a smile.
She and him were not as cautious as they first met, and Xue Mei began to tease him.
Xiao Jing nodded seriously: "Like me!"
Xue Mei: "..."
The key is that your motive for marrying me is too simple, just to repay your kindness, and you have no impure thoughts about me.
Is this called marriage?
Xue Mei felt that if she really married Xiao Jingcheng, she would not be a princess when she went to Prince Rui's Mansion, but a princess.
Her son, I want to offer her.
She wanted to be a princess, not a concubine.
"Let's talk about it." Xue Mei smiled, "I don't want to consider marriage for the time being."
Xiao Jingcheng: “…”
When they were talking, the snow outside became heavier, and the path was already buried by snow.
Xiao Jingcheng told Xue Mei: "I want to live in the capital for one year. If I get what I want in the future, I may not go to Baiya Town. I will fight for the imperial court for nine years and should also enjoy my happiness."
Xue Mei nodded: "Yes, normal discharge is a reasonable requirement."
“Retired from the Army?”
Xue Mei was about to explain to him, and footsteps came from outside.
From a distance, one person came in the snow, followed by two servants.
It is Yongning Hou.
Xiao Jingcheng suddenly felt a slump.
He has a very strange aura - although he can't speak gentle when talking to Xue Mei, he can't speak softly, like a handsome young man.
But once there are outsiders, especially those he doesn't like, he suddenly feels like a shell, and he feels cold and "don't enter the newborn" body, which can make people feel froze.
Xue Mei remembered her boss again.
When that person is a fool, he can make people angry; but when he is pretending, no one can defeat his murderous aura.
He is a versatile player.
Just like Xiao Jingcheng.
Xue Mei was shocked by herself, and she suddenly lost her little thoughts about Xiao Jingcheng's "sexuality makes him stupid" and even wanted to be eight hundred away from him.
Who are you not good to be like? Do you have to be like that bitch?
Xue Mei was speechless too.
When she and Xiao Jingcheng had their own thoughts, Yongning Hou smiled and entered the yard of the fifth young master.
"Prince." He gave Xiao Jing a greeting.
Xiao Jingcheng was the prince, and he received the rituals of the Marquis of Yongning. He said for a while: "The Marquis does not need to be too polite."
The Marquis of Yongning stood up straight: "The prince climbed to the humble house, prepared a little wine at noon, and asked the prince to admire his face."
"No need." Xiao Jingcheng said.
"The little girl is about to marry Prince Yu, sooner or later she will be a family, so the prince doesn't need to be polite." Yongning Hou smiled and wanted to act like she was neither humble nor arrogant.
Xiao Jingcheng glanced at him coldly: "Who will your daughter marry? What do you have to do with me?"
Yongning Hou didn't expect that he looked so bad.
In his marquis's mansion, he actually looked at himself, which was very embarrassing.
Xue Mei smiled and smoothed out the situation: "Father, the prince is busy with work today, so he won't leave any food."
She stood up and said, "Prince, I'll take you out."
Xiao Jingcheng nodded and stood up.
He did not give Yongning Hou any face.
Yongning Hou didn't know how he offended him. He recognized Xue Mei, who was Xue Mei's father, and said hello to him. Why did he have this attitude?
Did Xue Mei say bad things about him?
Thinking of this, Yongning Hou felt that it was very likely that Xue Mei had disrespectful to his father recently.
What's the point of asking her!
Yongning Hou remembered again that she joined hands with her elder brother to retire from the Wen family's marriage and also refunded the bride price of 50,000 taels, and felt very angry.
When Xue Mei acts, he doesn't even look down on him.
He was very angry, so he didn't say anything to Xue Mei.
"During the Chinese New Year, we must find another marriage for her. She stayed in the mansion and ruined our reputation, which was not good for Yutan." Yongning Hou thought.
No matter how powerful Xue Mei is, she is just a daughter's family, and her marriage depends on her parents.
Xue Mei didn't know her father's idea and sent Xiao Jingcheng to the gate.
"...I really don't need to ask your Majesty for reward?" Xiao Jingcheng asked her again.
She "cured" Xiao Jingcheng, who planned to ask her for a princess title, which was also his purpose of pretending to be asleep. Of course, the deeper purpose was that when he frequently looked for her, the mother and the emperor would not be suspicious.
Xue Mei refused the reward.
"As it said, I want a serious princess. His Majesty saw this, even if he had signed me as a princess, he would not be happy.
Besides, your majesty and the queen mother have been covering up your illness, and your majesty can't find an excuse to reward me, don't make things difficult for him." Xue Mei said.
They were talking when suddenly a carriage was parked at the gate of the Yongning Marquis' Mansion.
A man got off the carriage.
The man was very young, with a tender face, about the same age as Xue Run, and he looked like he was fifteen or sixteen years old.
Xue Mei didn't know each other, so she looked at her curiously for a few more times. She didn't know whose relative he was, and why she came to Yongning Hou's Mansion.
