204 Is it right to suddenly have an affair with a love rival?
"Yes, Your Highness the Princess," Bai Jinan stepped forward and saluted.
Ji Mingzhu took a look at his appearance and said, "He does look a bit like your mother, but his eyes are really annoying."
Bai Jinan looks very much like his mother, but his eyes are more like his father's, which makes Ji Mingzhu feel a little disgusted. He and Bai Jinan's mother are childhood sweethearts.
Rongyue was her study partner when she was a child. They were inseparable and even looked a bit alike. Even the emperor joked that Rongyue and Mingzhu looked a bit similar after being together for a long time.
The two grew up together. Rong Yue was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting and chose to stay in the palace to teach the ladies, while she chose to do business, believing that a woman's destiny should be in her own hands.
Although Ji Shengze did not agree with her showing up in public, he had no choice but to let his spoiled daughter do what he wanted.
It's a pity that the fate of the two people is the same but different. Rong Yue married the one she loved, and she married the one she didn't love.
She didn't care, after all, she still had wealth on her side and didn't have to rely on her husband's family. But Rong Yue was different. Her talents were not favored by her husband's family, and they ordered her to take care of her husband and children and no longer need to teach the noble ladies.
Such a talented woman was imprisoned and humiliated, and died with hatred. In the end, she couldn't even protect her child and had to give him away.
Nowadays, nine out of ten women are in a tragic situation. Few of them marry for love and are loved by their husbands. They think it is a paradise, but in fact it is just a swamp coated with sugar.
She advised Rong Yue not to put her body and soul on a man, and to rely on herself instead of others, but Rong Yue still insisted on marrying for love.
A stupid woman, but also a pitiful woman
Ji Mingzhu took a deep breath to suppress the bitterness in her heart. "If she forces you like this again, just come to my shop with my Peony Order and find me."
After all, she still couldn't let go of her friend's son. She didn't protect her when she was looking for business opportunities in other places, and she didn't even see her for the last time. Ji Mingzhu regretted that she should have forced that stupid woman to take her away.
Ji Mingzhu handed the Peony Order to Nanfeng and asked him to give it to Bai Jinan, but no one took it for a long time. She looked at Nanfeng in confusion.
Nan Feng sat upright with no smile on his face, as if he didn't notice Ji Mingzhu looking at him.
Ji Mingzhu finally understood that she had neglected her son over the years. He had grown up so fast. Last time, she asked her grandma to bring him some cakes, but she didn't know if he liked them.
"What gift would Feng'er like for his coming-of-age this year?" Ji Mingzhu placed the Peony Order on the table, signaling Bai Jinan to come and get it himself.
Nan Feng said without any expression, "Your Highness, my coming-of-age ceremony has already passed."
Is it over?
Ji Mingzhu thought about it for a while. She hadn't asked about Nanfeng's affairs for a long time. She didn't expect that no one reminded her during the coming-of-age ceremony. She was in the wrong.
"Then what do you want? Mother can give it to you." Ji Mingzhu looked at Nanfeng's cold expression and felt an indescribable annoyance when she heard his name.
"Your Highness, please arrange a wedding for me!" Nan Feng's words shocked the two people in the room.
Ji Mingzhu looked at Bai Jinan in surprise and said, "Didn't you cancel your engagement with the Bai family with His Majesty?"
Bai Jinan also didn't understand what Nanfeng was going to do. Didn't he like Jun Huai? Why did he suddenly want to have a wedding? Was he in love with someone else?
If Jun Huai knew, would he be so sad that he would go crazy...
Thinking back to when he saw Jun Huai after the general's family died, he saw his cold and violent look when he killed those arrogant captives with a knife with bloodshot eyes. Bai Jinan still trembles.
"The Bai family's engagement was just a verbal promise, I never took it seriously." Nan Feng glanced at Bai Jinan and then looked away without caring.
Is he disliking me?
I always feel that there is something dirty in his eyes.
Bai Jinan's expression was complicated. Being despised again and again by someone would make a soft persimmon explode, not to mention that he was not a soft persimmon.
"Your Highness, my nephew has someone he loves, and he will definitely not marry a prodigy like Master Nan." He emphasized the word "prodigy" very strongly, and he would not like a nerd!
Bai Jinan glanced at Nanfeng provocatively
Ji Mingzhu seldom comes back. Although she doesn't really want to take care of these things, she owes Nanfeng something, so she can still agree to this. "In this case, you should always tell your mother where you will pick up your bride."
“He’ll find it himself.”
Nan Feng's confident tone made Ji Mingzhu unable to figure out what he was thinking. "Okay, whatever you say."
........................
Hearing that the Grand Tutor's grandson Nanfeng was going to marry the Bai family's illegitimate son, everyone sat back and waited to see whether the little devil would steal the bride.
But I feel something is wrong when I look at it
Is there something missing from this street?
Where is the wedding procession?
What about beating drums and gongs?
What about people?
Besides being able to see the outside of the Taifu Mansion decorated with lights and colorful lanterns, big red lanterns hanging high, red silk ribbons fluttering, a golden "囍" character pasted on the door, flowers placed on both sides of the steps, and servants busying themselves in and out,
It doesn't look like a wedding at all. There aren't even any guests inside. So is it a wedding or not?
I caught a servant and asked him, but he knew nothing.
Even the emperor asked about this matter and summoned the Taifu
The Taifu is also clueless.
Only Ji Mingzhu left with a sentence "He has his own reasons" and left. She still had a lot of account books to look at. She had spent a lot of time these days decorating the Taifu Mansion.
There was no movement in the Taifu Mansion for a long time. Those old stubborn people dared not say a word after being taught a lesson by Ji Mingzhu and let them toss around.
Some people are not giving up and squatting around the Taifu Mansion to see if they can get the first-hand melon.
As a result, it was not until the evening when the red lanterns of the Taifu Mansion were lit that a servant came out yawning, looked around, and then closed the door.
? ?
What direction is this going?
They were just playing a joke on me. Who on earth spread this news?! Then they all left cursing and swore never to spread rumors again.
What a waste of time! They have to hurry to the casino to see if they can get their money back. Damn it, they must not let it be embezzled!
The little stone who was secretly scolded by others looked at his own merits and smiled so hard that his mouth could not close. "Handsome brother, it's a pleasure to cooperate with you. I won't disturb you tonight, hehe (￣▽￣)σ"
Sitting on the bed in the bedroom covered with red curtains, Nan Feng casually took off his clothes and put on a red brocade robe, calculating the time in his heart.
It was a pity that after waiting for a long time, no one came in from the window. He did not rush to touch his thigh with his fingertips until the candle was half burned and there was no sign of the familiar figure.
Nan Feng lowered his eyelids, a faint purple flashed in his eyes, and the originally curved corners of his lips gradually returned to normal. He, who had always been meticulous in his calculations, had tasted the taste of failure twice on the same person.
Novel but also disappointing enough
I still have to lock up the kitten so that it will be obedient and won't leave.
He slowly stood up and extinguished the candles one by one. He pulled off the red hairband on his hair and held it in his palm. He pinched his fingertips and a faint white mist of spiritual power appeared. Just as he was about to make a move, he heard a faint conversation outside the window because of his excellent hearing.
Nan Feng looked at the window that Lu Junhuai had climbed through, and the emotions in his eyes surged like a tide.
I caught you...

Anyone with a discerning eye can see what Nan Nan is going to do.
Fishing, of course. Catch the escaped fish and eat them.
