LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 29:
Chapter 29
Wei Hanzhang looked at the ink jade in his hand, with an elegant "Xiao" character engraved on it.
The ‘Xiao’ of the clan.
After being stunned for a few seconds, Wei Hanzhang asked bluntly: "Xiao... Your Majesty, do you like me?"
No matter how dull she is, she can still detect that this person's mind is definitely not pure. How can there be any reason to exchange jade pendants like this!
Unexpectedly, she would be so direct. Xiao Junzhan's eyelashes trembled. He was particularly embarrassed by her question. He didn't even care about being misunderstood as the 'Prince'.
After a moment of silence, he composed himself, looked directly at her, and said, "This jade was a gift from my grandfather. I have worn it with me for ten years."
The implication is that this jade pendant is of extraordinary significance. If he didn’t really like it, he would not give it to him casually.
"I can't want it." Wei Hanzhang understood what he meant, his face became cold, and he said decisively: "Since the prince knows that I have a marriage contract under discussion, he should understand that I will not accept a token from a foreign man."
Xiao Junzhan's face darkened at being flatly rejected. He slowly withdrew his hand and said: "The so-called engagement is just being discussed and has not been truly finalized. Besides, you seem to be quite distressed about this marriage."
"Your Majesty, you are wrong. I and the husband of the Gu family are our childhood sweethearts. We love each other. We just had a quarrel, but we will soon reconcile."
Wei Hanzhang said: "Rather than refuse the marriage and find someone with a different temperament, I think this marriage is excellent."
I kept slandering in my heart: It turns out that a person cannot be judged by his appearance. This prince of Prince Yan has an otherworldly appearance, but he did not expect to have such a human face and an animal heart.
It had only been half a year since his first wife died in childbirth, but he actually started hooking up with a little girl. I heard that there are two side rooms in the backyard. The side room of the palace can have **** with jade butterflies, and can go out to make friends and meet guests. They are all daughters of a wealthy family, so they were remembered by the Jiang family. Down.
This is just what the Jiang family wrote down. There are many concubines whose names have never been publicized. Compared with being remembered by such a man after refusing marriage, Wei Hanzhang suddenly felt that Gu Yunran was not very attractive.
Xiao Junzhan looked at her silently, his eyes gradually became cold, and he was silent for a long time.
Wei Hanzhang was not afraid of him. He raised his eyes and looked at him for a moment, and said slightly, "Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for helping me turn around my reputation in the past few days. If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
"Something's wrong," Xiao Junzhan said softly: "The Jiang family you just talked about, count the days, it will take a few days to be escorted to Beijing, and the criminals who are awaiting trial according to the law will be sent to the sky jail..."
“!” Wei Hanzhang’s eyes suddenly widened: “Do you know about the Jiang family’s case?”
"I know." Xiao Junzhan smiled lightly: "I also know that the things Jiang Zixiu committed can be big or small. Whether he will implicate the entire Jiang family or just punish him, it all depends on the prince's thoughts."
"Do you know the prince?" Thinking that he is a descendant of the clan, and naturally he has met the prince, Wei Hanzhang said anxiously: "It is said that His Highness is generous and kind. My grandfather served as an official in two dynasties, serving the country and the people. Now at the age of seventy, the prince Can you please be patient and forgive the rest of the Jiang family?"
"Don't panic, I have known the prince since childhood, and I can help you say a few words." Xiao Junzhan turned his head away from her eager look and said, "Miss Ranran, can you consider my wishes?"
Wei Hanzhang's breath was stagnant, and he was momentarily speechless. He stared at him blankly, his eyes full of panic.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Junzhan took a step forward and said helplessly: "I'm not asking you to accept me immediately, I just want you to try to see what I mean. I know this request is a bit ungentlemanly, but you have already started talking about marriage..."
He did not say anything else, but Wei Hanzhang already understood.
Are you afraid that the girl you like will marry someone else, so you can only do this?
She thought for a moment, raised her eyes and asked, "Can you really help me rescue the Jiang family?"
Xiao Junzhan said softly: "Jiang Zixiu is a criminal with conclusive evidence. He and his family members cannot escape the sentence of exile. As for the rest of the Jiang family, I can guarantee their safety."
As for the rest of the Jiang family, I can guarantee that they are safe...
Although it was only the third time we met, and although his voice was soft and gentle, there was an indescribable confidence that made Wei Hanzhang instantly convinced that he could really save the rest of the Jiang family.
Tianwei Hanzhang had already thought about this. Since the evidence of her uncle's crime was conclusive, the law was ruthless, so he had to be sentenced. There was a flood in the south of the Yangtze River, and thousands of people were displaced. Even the uncle who had money allocated by the imperial court to build the dam dared to make plans. Exile was already a light thing, and Wei Hanzhang did not feel any regret at all.
This uncle is greedy for women and is very happy with his success. Now he has brought trouble to the whole family and he deserves to suffer.
Thinking of this, Wei Hanzhang said: "Then how do you want me to repay you?"
As long as she doesn't force her to agree to him, there's nothing else to say. There's no such thing as a free lunch. Wei Hanzhang was thinking about what he would ask for when he heard a man's voice.
Xiao Junzhan's eyes were soft and he said warmly: "My study is short of someone who can grind ink and serve tea. Miss Ran Ran, would you like to come?"
Wei Hanzhang was startled, grinding ink and serving tea...
The dignified Crown Prince Yan would never be short of helpers. It was just a way to get close to her, and Wei Hanzhang knew it in his heart.
But it was just a job of grinding ink and serving tea, but it could save her grandfather's family, so the business was not a loss.
After thinking for a moment, Wei Hanzhang chose to respond: "How long? There must be a time limit, right?"
Her decisive agreement made Xiao Junzhan pause, then suddenly smiled and said: "Then let's wait until the sentence on Jiang Zixiu's case is completed, okay?"
This smile made the cold and distant air around him disappear, and he became more gentle and jade-like. Wei Hanzhang looked slightly dazed.
She quickly came back to her senses, feeling a little annoyed. After she calmed down, she asked, "When did it start?"
Xiao Junzhan nodded and said with a smile, "I will send someone to pick you up tomorrow."
Pick her up?
How can this be done?
The people in Zhongyonghou's residence are very discerning. If someone saw her getting into a strange carriage...
Wei Hanzhang said: "No, I can come by myself. This is your other courtyard, so I will wait for you here tomorrow."
Waiting for you here...
Xiao Junzhan's heart trembled slightly. He pondered for a moment and said, "It's not appropriate for you to leave the house frequently. I have another courtyard separated from the southwest corner of the Zhongyong Hou Mansion by only a wall. If you are willing, you can...I can have someone dig it out..."
Speaking of this, he seemed to remember something, paused again, and smiled: "How about opening the door?"
"..." Wei Hanzhang always felt that his pause meant something, and there was some inexplicable shyness on his face. The impression of her drilling into a hole in the wall couldn't be erased, right?
However, the southwest corner…
Her Linfeng residence seems to be the southwest corner of the Hou Mansion?
It's not just separated from his other courtyard by a wall, right?
Wei Hanzhang suddenly remembered that he had heard Nanny Sun say before that the opposite wall of the Tingfeng Building in her backyard used to be the house of an old man. A few years ago, the old man retired and returned to his hometown, and the yard was given to Yan by His Majesty. king…
So, she was right?
Is this person in front of me really the prince of Yan, whose wife died less than half a year ago?
