353 Out of Control
"Marriage? Who to do?"
Elder Zong Ye was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Situ Xingchen's expression, he suddenly understood.
"and you!?"
Situ Xingchen nodded gently.
"The father is doing this."
Elder Zongye was extremely surprised.
Yaochen Kingdom and Xingluo Kingdom had not had too many contacts before, so why are you going to marry suddenly now?
And he actually made the idea of Situ Xingchen!
"What did your father think? Rong Jin is not outstanding, and judging from what you just said, he is even narrow-minded and unable to achieve great things. He is not worthy of you at all!"
Even if it is not Rong Xiu, he should be another young talent. How could it be Rong Jin?
Situ Xingchen seemed to be distracted and said with a smile:
"After all, he is the prince of Yaochen Kingdom, and he is not completely incapable of being able to reach this day. You may underestimate him. Moreover, although this matter has not grown yet, the father is very persistent. He must have his reasons, what do you think?"
"Anyway, I'm not optimistic about this marriage!"
Elder Zongye snorted coldly.
"If it really happens, then will you stay in Yaochen Kingdom in the future? Since Rong Jin has done so many ridiculous things, it proves that he is not enough to take on the great responsibility! Although he is still the crown prince now, he may not be able to sit in this position for long! Xingchen, don't worry, when that kid comes tomorrow, I will definitely stop this marriage! With me, your father dare not force you!"
Situ Xingchen's eyes flashed slightly.
"Elder Zongye, Xingchen knows that you are doing it for my own good. But today I have said so much to you, but in fact... I hope you can agree to the marriage tomorrow."
"What!? Do you really want to marry that boy Rong Jin?!" Elder Zong Ye looked at Situ Xingchen in disbelief, "You, you are not deliberately angry because Rong Xiu wants to marry someone else, right?"
Situ Xingchen burst out laughing.
"You think too much, how could I do that? I really agree with this marriage. You also know that not many people know about this before. If you say it suddenly, it will definitely be opposed by many people. But if you can express your opinion tomorrow, then others will definitely not say much."
Elder Zong Ye has a very high status in Xingluo Kingdom. As long as he speaks, things will definitely go smoothly.
"I... Xingchen, have you really thought about it?"
"yes."
Elder Zong Ye looked at Situ Xingchen's firm expression and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"Okay! Since that's the case, I promise you!"
Situ Xingchen smiled a little deeper.
"Thank you, Elder Zongye."
...
Yaochen Kingdom, the imperial palace.
It was already dark, but the queen and Rong Jin were still discussing something in the room.
"You are going to Xingluo Kingdom tomorrow. This marriage must be completed." The queen looked very serious, "This is your best opportunity. Once you miss it, I don't know how long you have to wait."
Rong Jin nodded: "Oh Chen knows. Don't worry, Situ Xingchen and I have passed the letter, so there will be no problem with this matter."
The queen relaxed a little, leaned on the chair, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.
"That's good. I asked you to find a way to enhance your relationship with her before, but I didn't expect it to be so smooth."
Rong Jin also laughed, looking quite proud.
"It is said that Situ Xingchen is the most shining pearl in Xingluo Kingdom. Since she and the Hailang have asked for marriage, she has never agreed. The son-in-law thought that she should be very difficult to get close to, but unexpectedly, she just wrote a letter and she..."
"Maybe she was interested in you before, but she couldn't say it right."
The queen looked at Rong Jin and said with a smile.
"For women, love is the most indefinite thing."
It is said that Situ Xingchen has a high vision, but when he meets a person like Rong Jin, he will naturally feel secretly.
Rong Jin originally had no special feelings for Situ Xingchen, but such a beautiful woman who was extremely outstanding in all aspects favored him, which of course would greatly satisfy his vanity.
Because of this, his attitude towards this marriage has changed drastically.
He was a little reluctant before, but now, he had an inexplicable expectation to see Situ Xingchen tomorrow and make a marriage contract.
"Anyway, you did a good job in this matter. When you arrive, try to finalize this matter as soon as possible. As long as you make a marriage contract, your position as prince will be stable." The queen sighed, "In this way, even if your father knows about Zhenzhen, we can still have a trump card."
Rong Zhen asked with some concern:
“Have you found someone yet?”
"There is no news at all, it seems like the world has completely evaporated."
If there was no movement in the palace, she would have thought Rong Zhen was dead.
But obviously not.
Rong Zhen was just secretly hidden by someone, but they searched for so long but still couldn't find it.
The queen didn't know how she had been through these days in fear.
Last time Emperor Jiawen proposed to visit Rong Zhen, but suddenly he received a letter from Xingluo Kingdom, which was delayed.
The content of the letter, she later guessed, was related to marriage.
Because Emperor Jiawen lifted Rong Jin's house arrest not long after, his attitude towards him also improved significantly.
"You are leaving tomorrow. For this reason, your father specifically mentioned that he would let Zhenzhen give you a gift today, but he was stopped by this palace. Your father was busy with your affairs with Situ Xingchen, and he could not worry about Zhenzhen for the time being. But he already had doubts and this matter would not last long. As long as you can resolve the marriage as soon as possible, your father weighed the pros and cons and would definitely not do anything to us mother and son."
Rong Jin nodded.
"My son knows."
...
Leave the palace.
Rong Xiu was sitting in the study, writing something.
Yan Qing and Yu Mo were waiting aside.
The light of the glazed octagonal lamp shines on Rong Xiu's face as jade as she looks.
He lowered his eyes, and his long eyelashes made a faint shadow under his eyelids, like a wisp of blue smoke floating above the bright moonlight, cold and noble.
I don't know how long it took, but he finally stopped writing.
Yan Qing and Yu Mo both were excited and looked up.
Rong Xiu picked up the writing, read it again, and placed it on a clear and lustful square jade in front of him.
The moment the two came into contact, a faint phosphorescence suddenly appeared on the square jade.
It turned out that the square jade was sunken in the top, and there was a very shallow water bay inside.
The thing transforms into the water when it encounters water, and turns into the waves on the water surface.
After a moment, the light dissipated, the water surface calmed down again, and gradually penetrated into the interior of the jade, disappearing.
At first glance, it seemed like a piece of ordinary jade, without any surprise.
Rong Xiu pushed the thing forward and said lightly:
"Send this back."
Yan Qing took a step forward and carefully picked up the thing.
However, at this moment, he saw Rong Xiu's white fingertips, and a cluster of golden light suddenly appeared!
He spoke in shock:
Chapter completed!
