Chapter 145
The eighth day of November is the birthday of Princess Yongchang’s 65th year.
The eldest princess Yongchang has a adopted daughter who looks like a deceased daughter this year. Her heart is comforted and she smiles more and more. The old man is happy. Wuping Hou is also very happy and decided to hold a birthday party for her mother. The invitations to the various governments have been sent over long ago, and the three famous opera troupes of the country have also invited them to the capital in advance. Then, this family will sing in the morning, the other one will sing in the afternoon, and another evening will be released.
On the way, guests came to visit one after another.
Emperor Huiyuan ordered people to send birthday gifts in the palace, and the princes who had already left the palace naturally came to celebrate their birthdays in person.
Zhou Qian came sooner or later. As soon as he got off the car, the manager in charge of the welcome guests of the Hou Mansion shouted loudly: "Your Highness Ding is here!"
In the hall, Chen Jiao, who was sitting in the lower left head of the Great Princess Yongchang, quietly clenched her hands.
When she left Zhou Qian, Zhou Qian acted and played with his lips and tongues, thinking that he was very proud of her tight control. Now she got rid of his concubine because of the love of Princess Yongchang and was also named Princess. Although this princess is just a decent title and has no practical benefits to get, she is one senior in the end, so Zhou Qian must be very angry.
Soon, the maids brought the VIPs to celebrate their birthday.
Except for the eldest princess Yongchang, who continued to sit with a smile, everyone in the hall stood up and rushed to the yard to salute Zhou Qian.
Chen Jiao was sitting closest to Princess Yongchang. When she went out to greet her, she walked at the end.
But the first thing Zhou Qian saw was the last one.
Zhou Qian almost didn't recognize his steps.
Chen Jiao is a noble daughter of the Duke's Mansion at heart. When she was in the palace, she was under the roof. Chen Jiao's words and deeds had to be careful, which was not much different from real palace maids. That kind of humility and caution was what Zhou Qian was familiar with. Later, the two became close to each other and Chen Jiao became more bold, but Chen Jiao, who was in Zhou Qian's heart, was always a palace maid.
When he arrived at the Marquis of Wuping, the eldest princess of Yongchang treated Chen Jiao as his daughter, and the servants of the Marquis of Housing also regarded Chen Jiao as their master. Chen Jiao gradually regained her original demeanor. Some servants were jealous of Chen Jiao ascended to the sky in one step, and secretly mocked Chen Jiao for pretending to be the master's proposition. She really treated herself as a daughter. Chen Jiao couldn't hear that, and even if she heard it, she wouldn't care. Princess of Yongchang, the change that the Marquis of Wuping and his wife liked her was enough.
Wherever she is, she should show her performance. She has been named the princess. Now her words and deeds represent the eldest princess of Yongchang. Could it be that she still has to be servile like a palace maid?
Today, the Hou Mansion held a birthday party. The eldest princess of Yongchang was dressed in great costumes. Chen Jiao dressed very grandly, wearing a golden hairpin and a red-bottomed and floral embroidered zither. Although she looked down and bowed her head, the princesses seemed to be born. There were princesses in the palace, but Zhou Qian actually felt that in terms of demeanor, those princesses would lose to Chen Jiao at this time.
The sparrow turns into a phoenix, very good, she really treats herself as a phoenix!
He withdrew his gaze at a glance, and Zhou Qian walked through everyone without squinting.
He passed by, and Chen Jiao saw the hem of his crimson python embroidered robe and a pair of black boots under his clothes.
It was still early before the birthday party began, and a stage was set up in the garden, and everyone went to watch the show first.
Chen Jiao held Princess Yongchang's hand, wherever Princess Yongchang was, she was.
Zhou Qian sat in the back row, facing the stage, but Yu Guang fell frequently on Chen Jiao. She sat next to the eldest princess Yongchang with a smile, talking to the old lady, serving tea and savoring it, and then grabing the melon seeds and eating them slowly. The red collar made her face look white and tender and tempting.
Zhou Qian closed his eyes.
The night before she left, he asked her if she would regret it. Now two months have passed, Zhou Qian doesn’t know if she regrets it, but he often misses her, her chubby body, and her charming charm. Sometimes Zhou Qian even feels that when they are together, they don’t have to do anything. As long as they can hold her and pinch her, it is also a kind of enjoyment.
It’s not that I have never tried to find someone to replace her. It’s not difficult to find a plump beauty, but I don’t know if it’s because of the change in my face. Zhou Qian just couldn’t get any interest in the newly found beauty. Chen Jiao stretched her clothes tightly. He found it interesting. If he changed it to someone else, he just felt fat and had no urge to relieve their clothes.
Just like Dongpo pork, there are some chefs who can make Dongpo pork, but not every chef makes Dongpo pork so fat just right.
I watched the play for the morning absent-mindedly, and the banquet started at noon, and after the banquet, I had to start listening to the play for the afternoon again.
Zhou Qian was still staring at Chen Jiao.
Chen Jiao listened to the play for a while, maybe she had drunk too much tea and suddenly wanted to get rid of it.
She approached Princess Yongchang's ear and asked for instructions, and Princess Yongchang nodded with a smile.
Chen Jiao left the table and walked aside. Lizhi followed her and accompanied her to the clean room.
The clean room was farther away and had to pass through half a garden. When Chen Jiao passed by, she met two female guests who had returned from the clean room and nodded to greet each other. However, when Chen Jiao came back, there were no people on the way, and only the lively hustle and bustle on the stage came over.
Passing by a rockery, a figure suddenly popped up from the side. Chen Jiao was startled and looked closely and found that it was Eunuch Liu.
"Princess, the prince invites you to go to the rockery and talk to you." Eunuch Liu looked around and whispered.
Chen Jiao frowned and said, "I have nothing to say about the prince."
After saying that, Chen Jiao was about to leave, but Eunuch Liu stepped in front of her and smiled and said, "The prince is destined. If the princess doesn't go, the servant will stop the princess. Someone may come here at any time. The servant is thick-skinned and not afraid of being pointed at by others. The princess has a noble status, so I am afraid he doesn't want to be criticized, right?"
Chen Jiao bites her lip.
She was originally someone around Zhou Qian. If someone caught her and Zhou Qian were entangled, gossip would definitely be indispensable.
Chen Jiao looked at the rockery, and she didn't believe what Zhou Qian dared to do.
Ignoring Eunuch Liu's threat, Chen Jiao walked directly to the rockery.
Eunuch Liu winked at the nervous lychee, and the two of them hid nearby.
Chen Jiao walked around the rockery and saw no figure. She walked forward in confusion. Suddenly, her wrist was grabbed and pulled her to the side. It turned out that there was a rockery cave next to her. When Chen Jiao was dragged in, she saw a crimson embroidered python robe. She knew that it was Zhou Qian, so she didn't call.
Zhou Qian pushed her to the mountain wall, and he pressed her tightly, while lifting her chin.
The cave was very dark, but it did not prevent Zhou Qian from seeing her angry eyes.
Zhou Qian sneered and slowly stroked her side face with his thumb: "Why, do you really treat yourself as a princess? Don't forget, you have long been mine."
Chen Jiao replied with a sneer and said bluntly: "I think the prince has a bad memory. My princess is personally conferred by the emperor. I am no longer the prince's concubine. In terms of seniority, the prince still needs to call me a cousin."
Zhou Qian breathed a lot, but the next moment he smiled again, his eyes shifted from Chen Jiao's face to her clothes with a frivolous look, and said hoarsely: "Okay, let me see how different it tastes from before after you become my king's cousin."
Before the voice fell, Zhou Qian suddenly blocked Chen Jiao's mouth and headed straight for the cotton he had been thinking about day and night.
Chen Jiao was ready to be bullied by him when he was suppressed. Almost as soon as Zhou Qian kissed her lips, Chen Jiao bit her first. Zhou Qian felt pain in her mouth, but her hands forgot to move. Chen Jiao pushed her hard and then took the opportunity to run out. Zhou Qian reacted quickly and immediately grabbed her wrist from behind and pulled the person back. Chen Jiao turned around uncontrollably, annoyed, and she raised her hand and waved her face!
Zhou Qian didn't expect that she would dare to take action. He had a flash of eyes and a "pop" sound, and she was already slapped on her face.
Zhou Qian held her in one hand and touched his face in disbelief.
Chen Jiao said hatefully: "The prince invited me over. I was invited to see the prince because of your former master and servant relationship. I know that the prince thinks that I am a humble person and looks down on me from the bottom of my heart. It is your business that you look down on me, and I can't control it. But if the prince thinks you can do whatever you want to do to me, then I advise the prince to kill me first and then show off his animal desires. At that time, I can't resist but I can't resist. You can do it at your disposal."
There was a bright light in her eyes, and her words were as strong as a knife.
Zhou Qian looked at her like this and suddenly felt very strange.
The two of them had been in the middle of the night countless times, and there were many of them that she took the initiative to invite favor. Now he just wanted to hug her again, but if she didn't agree, she wouldn't agree. She would just slap him, but as for what she said, "kill first and then rape him, what do she treat him as?"
"It was you who said in person. You are mine, and you have me in your heart." Holding her wrist tightly, Zhou Qian suppressed his anger and asked, "Isn't all the words you said true? If you don't want to be a concubine, why didn't you look so fierce at the beginning, but now you're looking for death with me?"
Chen Jiao sneered and looked at him and said, "Because I was stupid at that time, I thought I was kind to the prince. The prince might be willing to marry me as his wife. I knew that a palace maid wanted to marry a prince as his wife, which was like a fool, but I just wanted to try it. Even if the prince left in anger after learning about my daydream and had not stepped into the backyard for nearly two months, I still had a glimmer of hope. Until I waited for the prince to wait for the prince to wait for the marriage of the prince and the prospective princess."
Zhou Qian pursed his lips.
"Before the prince gave the marriage, how did I treat the prince, how did I treat the prince after the prince get engaged, so what would I treat the prince? When will I really pretend to be fake, I believe the prince knows better than me." Chen Jiao said calmly.
Zhou Qian's eyes flashed slightly. Before and after the marriage, her attitude towards him was indeed completely opposite.
"I can marry you as a concubine." Her wrist was warm and delicate. Zhou Qian recalled the toss and turns of the days. He relaxed his strength and whispered to her: "You know whether I spoil you or not. Although the concubine is not as noble as the princess, she is also very noble. Don't worry, as long as you come back, no one can surpass you in the future."
His tone was very sincere. Chen Jiao shook her head and lowered her eyes and said, "What I want is wholeheartedness. Even if you are willing to marry me as a princess, if you still think of other women and have a lot of wives and concubines, I won't care."
Zhou Qian's strength became stronger again and said angrily: "Except for poor people who are poor and have no ability to take concubines, how many people in the world can only marry a single wife?"
Chen Jiao smiled and raised her chin to the stage: "If you don't say it far away, Wu Pinghou is just one."
Zhou Qian was blocked by her in one breath.
But he was unwilling to accept it.
He said with a tense face: "Mrs. Wuping Hou was born in a famous family, what do you compare with her?"
Chen Jiao was not angry at all. She just glanced at him and sighed: "I can't compare with Mrs. Marquis, but I can marry an ordinary man who treats me seriously as much as the Marquis. In short, the Prince doesn't like me, and I never thought about forcing the Prince. From now on, I will not provoke the Prince. I also ask the Prince to forget me, a lowly girl. Let's go our own way, how about?"
Zhou Qian didn't speak, his breathing became heavier and heavier.
The silent anger was more terrifying than the outbreak. His wrist was so painful that it hurt. Chen Jiao hesitated for a moment, then suddenly stepped forward and hugged Zhou Qian.
Zhou Qian was shocked.
Chen Jiao leaned against his chest and said softly: "The prince's status is noble and his future princess is a perfect match for heaven. The people's daughter is as cheap as grass. It is not worthy of the prince's concern. Why should the prince be persistent?"
As he said that, Chen Jiao grabbed Zhou Qian's big hand with her other hand and broke it apart bit by bit.
