Chapter 526 Another Reward
It was this well that he was able to get acquainted with Lu Yunqian.
Looking back, in just a few days, many thrilling things had happened between him and Lu Yunqian, it felt like the most exciting thing they had ever experienced.
Lu Yunqian is completely different from any woman he has known in the past. Every time she meets, she will bring him countless surprises, and he will never know what the next time will be like, just like every time he thinks he knows enough. When Lu Yunqian was young, he would discover a new side in her.
This woman is like a good book. You think you have reached the most exciting part, but in fact, when you turn to the back, there are more surprises waiting for you. It is this constant surprise that makes him unable to bear it. Make an exception for her again and again to get close to her.
Prince Jing had to admit that in his 24 years of life, he had never felt such an unstoppable feeling towards any woman.He thought, maybe this is the feeling of special liking?If this obsession is not love, then what is?
Bending down, Prince Jing stroked the edge of the well, and looked down at the bottom of the well. The inside was so unfathomable, but he jumped down without hesitation when he heard the call for help that day. Tiao just met such a stunningly talented woman.
Since he took care of this nosy matter that day, it is true that as Lu Yunqian said, he will take care of Lu Yunqian's affairs after saving people to the end.
So after making up his mind, Prince Jing left the back garden, just in time to run into Prime Minister Yuan who was looking for him.
Prime Minister Yuan had already supervised Mrs. Wang and Yuan Lan to be whipped. He anxiously went to Yang's courtyard to look for Lu Yunqian, but when he learned that Prince Jing had left, he wandered around the mansion and finally found a place in the back garden. bumped into him.
"Your Highness, I have already taught them according to your request." Prime Minister Yuan bowed to Prince Jing, respectfully repaying Madam Wang and Yuan Lan's disposition.
Prince Jing hummed lightly, noncommittal.
"Your Highness, do you have something on your mind?" Prime Minister Yuan observed his words and expressions, seeing that Prince Jing was still frowning, he couldn't help asking.
"Prime Minister, Ling Ai was brave and resourceful in rescuing the missing little girl this time, and she made the most of the contribution. This king has always been very clear about rewards and punishments. Naturally, Ling Ai should be rewarded. It's just that Ling Ai is a woman. This king really can't figure it out." I don't know what the Prime Minister thinks about what should be rewarded for her?" Seeing that Prime Minister Yuan asked, Prince Jing said it directly.
Prime Minister Yuan has always been scheming, and his daughter who rewarded him came to ask his opinion, what is this?No matter what the reward is, it's not because Prime Minister Yuan has a thick skin and asked for the reward through his daughter.
Thinking of this, Prime Minister Yuan naturally declined very modestly: "Your Highness, it is the foundation of being a man to be brave in seeing justice. What the little girl has done is not worth mentioning, and I dare not ask for any rewards. Please, Your Highness, give up this thought."
This answer was completely within King Jing's expectations, and he immediately refused without hesitation: "Prime Minister, protecting the family, defending the country, and rescuing the suffering people is originally a man's duty, and it has nothing to do with your love. Regardless of her own danger, she has made a great contribution, and she cannot be deprived of the reward she deserves just because she is a woman."
"Then what does Your Highness want to reward the little girl?" Yuan Chengxiang saw that Prince Jing insisted on this, and if he postponed it any longer, it would be hypocritical.
"This is exactly what troubles me. If your daughter is married, you can still give her orders as a wife, but now..." Prince Jing threw the question to Prime Minister Yuan again.
For Prime Minister Yuan, this question is naturally a bit difficult to answer. After all, in this era, women are raised in deep boudoirs and do not go out of the second door. If it is a man who has made such great achievements, it is very easy to be promoted according to the regulations. Yes, but for a woman, she has neither an official position nor a title, so it is indeed more troublesome.
"Your Highness, why don't you give me some vulgar things like silk, silk, satin, jewellery, girls will like it." Maybe that's all Prime Minister Yuan had.
However, Prince Jing immediately vetoed it: "How can that be done? Doesn't that belittle Miss Yuan Er? She is a woman who doesn't give way to a man, and rewarding these things will actually insult her."
Prime Minister Yuan was dumbfounded. Was this what Prince Jing said?He has been an official in the same dynasty as Prince Jing for seven or eight years, but he never knew that the resolute and uncompromising prince would be such a mother-in-law today, or because of a little girl?Could it be that Prince Jing really took a fancy to Lu Yunqian, that's why he beat around the bush in such a way that he didn't directly state his purpose?
"Then what does His Highness mean?" Prime Minister Yuan really couldn't figure it out, he thought that if Prince Jing had something to say, he might as well just say it, so as to save him from guessing.
Prince Jing also felt that he was not like him at all at the moment. If it wasn't because he had a heart for Lu Yunqian, why would he be so concerned about gains and losses? What he wanted was that Lu Yunqian would never be bullied by anyone again. , this point is also very easy to achieve, as long as Lu Yunqian is willing, he can immediately make a dowry to marry her as the princess.
But the problem is that now he doesn't know Lu Yunqian's thoughts at all, he wants Lu Yunqian to like him sincerely, and then marry him willingly.
If he proposes marriage at this moment, he believes that even if Lu Yunqian is unwilling, he will probably be forced to marry him by Prime Minister Yuan, and even if Lu Yunqian is willing, it is very likely that it is only because of his status and not because of his status. If you like him, then this is completely contrary to his original intention.
It was precisely because of this that Prince Jing was in a difficult situation. Since he did not marry Lu Yunqian, he was just an outsider in the Prime Minister's Mansion. It was true that Lu Yunqian's life in the Prime Minister's Mansion should be made easier for Lu Yunqian as an outsider. Not very easy to intervene.
"Just now the imperial doctor gave Miss Yuan Er a diagnosis and treatment. She said that her old wounds were not healed and she had new wounds. If she doesn't take care of her body, I'm afraid that the root cause of the disease will fall, just like her mother." Thinking of these thoughts, Prince Jing thought Still a little suffocated.
Prime Minister Yuan never cared about the affairs of the back house, so naturally he knew nothing about it, and he felt ashamed for a while and wished he could find a crack in the ground to get in.
"This king also knows that the prime minister is busy with official duties, so he doesn't have time to take care of the affairs of the back house. It's just that Miss Yuan is a person of merit. This king really can't bear her to be bullied in a place where the prime minister can't see." Prince Jing met Lu for the first time. When Yunqian was in charge, he used sidesteps to get Prime Minister Yuan to treat Lu Yunqian kindly, but now it seems that it is of no use at all.
"It's my negligence. Please rest assured, Your Highness. I will definitely teach you a lesson and make her treat Xin'er kindly in the future." Prime Minister Yuan was ashamed, but also a little joyful. This King Jing seemed to treat Lu Yun shallowly. I really care about it very much. It is definitely impossible to say that I don't like her.
"What this king thinks is, since the prime minister's wife doesn't have the ability to manage the back house, can she be handed over to Miss Yuan Er to manage it? Naturally, no one can bully her." King Jing thought for a while, and still proposed that this should not be his responsibility. Suggestions made.
