93. Chapter 93

Mingyue Tower.

As soon as Chen Yingshi got off the horse, a friend came out inside and smiled and said, "The Marquis is here. A young man said he had made an appointment with you and asked the young man to lead the way."

He looked at the young marquis in front of him with inquiring eyes, afraid that the young man in the second floor would be deceived by him.

Chen Yingshi's expression was faint, and he signaled him to lead the way.

The guy immediately made a request gesture.

Chen Yingshi followed him and glanced at the various private rooms on the second floor. He felt puzzled and nervous.

She left Xi'an in September last year and returned at the end of June this year. Although he wanted to see her, because she said she had no intention of him and was in filial piety, she really didn't have much leisure to consider the longing of her children. Only when she saw her letter did she suddenly realize that his missed her more deeply than she thought.

The guy led him to a private room and stepped back. Chen Yingshi stood in front of the door, calming down his throbbing in his heart, and then pushed the door open and saw a handsome man sitting in a white shirt sitting at the table by the window... The girl, her appearance coincided with her memory, and seemed to be even more outstanding, like a pearl in the elegant room, radiant surrounds her body.

"Miss Two." Chen Yingshi said politely and closed the door.

"Young Master Chen, don't be fine." Xie Lanqiao stood up and greeted him, "I have heard of the matter of Lord Chen, too. Please forgive me for your mourning."

Didn't call him the other Marquis.

This is to treat him as a friend.

Chen Yingshi couldn't help laughing, and said that his deceased father, who had passed away for a year, was quite calm. "The deceased is gone, I understand, the second girl doesn't have to worry. Why did the second girl come to Xi'an alone this time?"

He walked to the chair opposite her and sat down, with a calm expression, and did not hide his knowledge of her entry into the city.

Xie Lanqiao looked at him more and sat down and said, "To be honest, I wanted to travel with my brothers, but I just received a letter from home and heard that my sister Lanyin was given to His Highness the King of Qin as her concubine by the emperor, so I gave up my mind."

Chen Yingshi was about to serve tea, but when he heard this, he withdrew his hand and looked directly at the girl opposite him and said, "What does the marriage between Miss Five and His Highness the King of Qin have to do with your ambition?"

He also received news about that incident, but he had known that Xiao Yuan had Xie Lanyin in his heart, and was not surprised.

Xie Lanqiao smiled and signaled him to drink tea first. When Chen Yingshi acted gracefully and put down the tea bowl, he said: "Before I answer this question, I also wanted to ask Mr. Chen, you once proposed marriage to me last year. I wonder if Mr. Chen still likes me after a year?"

Chen Yingshi's heartbeat, but how smart he was. Thinking of Xie Lanqiao's words just now, he immediately understood what she meant after a brief heartbeat. He frowned and said, "The King of Qin is not favored by the emperor and the queen. The Xie family became a relative of him. In the eyes of outsiders, he naturally became a faction of the King of Qin. Even if he pretended to be incompatible with the King of Qin, once the King of Qin pretended to be a Luoyang merchant and made love with the fifth girl came to Beijing, it would inevitably arouse suspicion from the people in the palace."

The relationship between King Qin and Xie Lanyin was unknown to the people in the capital, and the people in Xi'an had not known it. He had seen both identities with King Qin, so Xie Lanqiao could naturally guess that he knew the inside story, and then think about the threat he might pose to them.

Chen Yingshi's voice became cold and his face looked very ugly, "Do you want to use your whole life to keep it secret for me?"

In her eyes, he was the villain who was waiting for?

"Young Master Chen misunderstood." Xie Lanqiao said calmly and sincerely, "Young Master is not a person who tells the truth. I know this very well. But the identity of the King of Qin is there. The emperor believes that his father may not believe in his life for a lifetime. There is Lan Yin. His father and the King of Qin are inconsistent with each other, so she cannot go home casually. So what I want to change is not to ask you to keep it a secret, but to use your and my marriage to completely reassure the emperor and the Queen. The two girls of the Xie family, one married the prince's cousin and the other married the King of Qin, are both daughters. In the heart of the emperor and the queen, my father can only remain neutral, and Lan Yin will be much more relaxed."

Chen Yingshi's expression was still cold and said to the window: "With a sister like you, Miss Five is so lucky."

He liked her, but he didn't want her to marry him for such reasons that had nothing to do with love, but he couldn't think of a way to help her without marrying her. What's more important is, if he refused, would she misunderstand that he had changed his heart and would she feel embarrassed?

It was not appropriate to have been silence for too long, Chen Yingshi reluctantly asked: "Are you really willing to let yourself down for the sake of the fifth girl for the rest of your life?"

"Why do you feel wronged?" Seeing his embarrassment and consideration, and knowing that he still likes her, Xie Lanqiao relaxed, and a hint of cunning appeared in his bright peach blossom eyes. "Young Master Chen, I never do business that is losing money. If you are ugly or have bad character, I will get bored when I see you. I will never come to you. It is because you are a very suitable marriage candidate that I thought of this method."

Speaking of the last sentence, her voice lowered. It was not shy, but a bit of a romantic young man who was sophisticated and playful. Chen Yingshi looked at her in disbelief, looked at her with a smile, and then recalled the unconcealed praise in her words. His fair and handsome face was uncontrollable and slightly red, "You..."

Are you telling the truth or just to coax him to agree...sweet words?

But Chen Yingshi couldn't ask any of this kind of thing a woman should have asked a man.

Xie Lanqiao knew what he meant, looked at him frankly and said, "I'm telling the truth."

After saying that, she picked up the teapot and walked to Chen Yingshi to pour tea for him. She looked down at the man's face that was getting redder because of her approaching. Xie Lanqiao raised the corner of his mouth and his voice softened, "Mr. Chen, I rejected you last year because I wanted to travel around, but have you ever said that I don't like you? Now I just gave up my plan to travel for my sister's family, but I also got a man who was infatuated with me. What's wrong with me?"

The best oolong tea fell gently into the tea bowl, with a beautiful sound, but not as good as every word she said.

Chen Yingshi watched her put down the teapot and slowly retract her hand. He could notice that she was looking at him and knew that she must have seen his embarrassment. The grand man's face was hot because of a girl's words, and probably red. Chen Yingshi was a little afraid to look up and face her. She stood beside him, as if waiting for something. Because of his silence, she turned around and wanted to return to her seat.

Chen Yingshi suddenly refused to let go.

He quickly grabbed her wrist and stood up and asked him, "If it weren't for the Fifth Girl, would you really want to marry me?"

Xie Lanqiao slowly turned around, looked up at the man who was much taller than her, and said sincerely: "I never thought that because I just thought you were a good person, and Lan Yin would continue to travel if she didn't marry the King of Qin. Then I was not so arrogant that I thought that you, who came from a famous family in three years, would like me, so I didn't consider your future."

Chen Yingshi's eyes are even more brilliant.

If she had a word of certainty, he would continue to suspect that she was just coaxing him, but if she said so, he believed it.

"I really don't regret it?" Chen Yingshi confirmed again, still holding her wrist.

Xie Lanqiao did not break free, turned his head to look at the window, and was a little worried, "I'm just afraid that your mother and aunt will not agree to you marry me."

She said the truth, and she really admired Chen Yingshi. Now that marrying him can relieve his father and uncle's future worries and make his sister live a peaceful life. These two things are enough to make up for the regret of not being able to travel around. There are gains and losses, which is very fair, and she can bear it. As for how to be a Marquis, as long as he can marry her, she is confident that she can do it well.

"As long as I want to marry, no one can care about me."

Chen Yingshi slowly clenched her hand, and when she looked over, she whispered: "I will go back to Beijing at the end of the year. You go back with me. I will tell the queen that she will marry you after she becomes filial. She is a smart person and will not miss this opportunity to bring the Xie family back from the King of Qin, so you don't have to worry."

He didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the palace. Now he didn't want to help Xiao Yuan or help her.

He just wanted to marry her.
