Chapter 30 You can try it
Shen Jingxuan heard the sound and turned to look where the sound came from.
Then I saw a woman in a lavender dress with small pale pink petals embroidered on her body walking towards me.
Her hair was casually tied up with a lavender hairpin inserted diagonally. The woman wore a little makeup, and her lips were red without any touch of makeup.
Seeing that the young lady had been looking at the woman who was approaching, Chun Tao approached Shen Jingxuan and said, "Young lady, she is Jiang Shaoying, the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery."
Jiang Shaoying did not walk with lotus steps like other women. She walked towards this side with light and graceful steps.
Before she could even stand still, a voice came over: "Lu Jinxuan? Why don't you let your people retreat?"
Seeing Jiang Shaoying coming over, Lu Jinxuan knew that she couldn't stop Shen Jingxuan today no matter what.
Why did Jiang Shaoying, such a nosy person, come here at this time?
Lu Jinxuan said impatiently: "Ms. Jiang, I just want to stop my cousin's wife."
She raised her hand, signaling the guards surrounding Shen Jingxuan to retreat.
Jiang Shaoying taunted, "Oh, is this how you stop someone? You really taught me a lesson."
She turned her head and looked at Shen Jingxuan and smiled: "Miss Shen, you can leave now."
Lu Jinxuan's face gradually became gloomy, and she once again secretly thought that she was meddling in other people's business.
She turned around and left, and the guard who had just stopped Shen Jingxuan also left with her.
Shen Jingxuan raised her eyebrows: "Thank you, Miss Jiang."
After saying this, she took Chuntao and walked away.
To her surprise, Jiang Shaoying followed her.
"Miss Shen, I am the daughter of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery. You can call me Ying'er." She said as she chased Shen Jingxuan.
Shen Jingxuan kept perfunctorily saying, "Okay, my name is Shen Jingxuan."
Even if she didn't say her name, the other party must have known it.
Jiang Shaoying laughed: "Can I call you Xuan? I see you are different from other women."
"They all say you are stupid, but I think they are blind. How could a beautiful girl like you be stupid?" After saying this, she nodded affirmatively.
Shen Jingxuan didn't care and said, "Let them say whatever they want."
She spoke calmly, as if the foolish girl everyone was talking about was not her.
Jiang Shaoying has also been talked about since she was a child. She is not like other women who are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Since she was little, she has loved following her father in wielding swords and guns, and she doesn't look like a girl at all.
Therefore, until now, no one has come to propose marriage.
Jiang Shaoying looked at Shen Jingxuan and asked, "Xuan, can we be friends? I have never had any friends since I was a child."
Hearing her words reminded Shen Jingxuan of Mu Yating.
She remembered that Mu Yating said the same thing at that time, that she had no friends and everyone hated her.
Coincidentally, no one likes Shen Jingxuan and she doesn't have many friends either.
Mu Yating followed her every day, talking non-stop, and she just listened silently.
Over time, the relationship between the two became better and better, and finally they became best friends.
But it was her best friend who betrayed her.
friend?
She never seemed to need it. After what happened in her past life, she didn't trust anyone.
Shen Jingxuan stared ahead and whispered softly: "Friends? If we are lucky enough to meet again, we can give it a try."
Her tactful refusal made Jiang Shaoying slightly stunned, but she became more determined.
Shen Jingxuan is indeed not a silly girl. They will definitely meet again and eventually become friends.
"Okay, we will definitely meet again."
Jiang Shaoying left with her maid, and Shen Jingxuan stood there quietly watching her figure disappear into the distance.
The sun sets in the west and the sky is filled with rosy clouds.
Xie Zihan was kneeling in the queen's bedroom, and the palace maids stood far away and dared not make a sound.
The queen sat on the soft couch above, her chest heaving violently.
She was almost mad with anger. Such a good marriage was ruined by Xie Zihan.
She repeatedly warned him not to cancel the engagement, but what did Xie Zi Han do?
Not only did he have an affair with the Crown Princess's sister before marriage, he even slept with her, and was caught red-handed by his fiancée-to-be.
A prince was actually broken off his engagement by a woman. Is this the heir she has been carefully nurturing for many years?
The Queen was very angry. She was angry at the Prince's incompetence, at Shen Jinghuan's seduction, and even more angry at Shen Jingxuan.
Not only did she demand 300,000 taels of silver in compensation from the Prince's Mansion, she also broke off the engagement with the Prince in public.
Her chest heaved more and more violently, and she angrily pushed everything on the table to the ground.
The queen stood up suddenly. Xie Zihan, who was kneeling on the ground, heard the noise and looked up, only to see the furious queen.
In his entire life, he had never seen the queen so angry, but he did not regret it.
Xie Zihan frowned and said, "Mother, please don't get angry. It will hurt your body."
"Do you still have me, your mother, in your heart? Wouldn't it be a good idea for you to piss me off to death?"
"Mother, I dare not." Xie Zihan still kneeled there with his head lowered.
The queen glared at Xie Zihan. He was the prince she had finally gotten and she had loved him since he was a child.
If she wasn't afraid that this matter would affect Xie Zihan's future, she wouldn't have been so angry with him.
She slowly suppressed her anger: "What do you want to do?"
"My son wants to marry Huan'er." Xie Zihan said what he was thinking.
The queen glared at Xie Zihan angrily. The prince meant to marry her, which meant that he liked this woman very much.
She really wanted to know what kind of woman could make the prince do anything to marry her.
"Impossible, your father will not agree."
Xie Zihan also knew that his father would definitely not agree to what he and Shen Jinghuan had done.
But she didn't let her beloved girl become the Crown Princess. Xie Zihan thought her Huan'er had suffered a great injustice.
He knelt quietly without saying a word, and the queen was furious when she saw him.
After a while, the queen gritted her teeth and said, "She can only be a concubine. This way, your father won't say anything."
Xie Zihan looked at the queen, but he was thinking of Shen Jinghuan. After all, he had wronged her Huan'er.
The Queen asked Xie Zihan to leave and go back to wait for news while she personally told the Emperor about the matter.
After leaving the Queen's palace, Xie Zihan walked aimlessly. When he came to his senses, he was already outside the imperial study.
The palace servants guarding outside the imperial study saluted when they saw him: "Your Highness the Crown Prince."
"Please stand up. Is our father in there?" Xie Zihan asked the palace maid.
The palace servant replied cautiously: "Your Highness, the Emperor and the Regent are discussing matters."
Hearing that Xie Lingxiao was also there, Xie Zihan left directly and returned to the Prince's Mansion.
At this time in the imperial study, the emperor was playing chess with the regent.
Xie Lingxiao didn’t know which game this was. He and the emperor had been playing chess for more than two hours.
And every time he lost to the emperor by one move.
"Royal brother, your chess skills are becoming more and more sophisticated."
Xie Lingxiao replied calmly: "Not as good as the emperor."
"Hahahaha... ..., I appreciate your concession, my royal brother."
Another game of chess ended, and Xie Lingxiao lost to the emperor again, making the emperor laugh.
He put away the chess pieces and said as if chatting, "My royal brother, you are twenty-three this year, right?"
"Do you have a girl you like? If so, you must tell me, my brother."
After he finished speaking, the emperor looked at Xie Lingxiao intently, afraid to miss any expression on his face.
