Chapter 184: Plan to Marry the Princess
The Third Prince suddenly realized: "Brother Cheng is right! But the Crown Prince is doing well now..."
Cheng Jiayu said calmly: "Your Highness, there are two ways. One is to wait for the right opportunity. The prince always makes mistakes. For example, last time he favored a palace maid, his reputation was damaged."
The third prince thought it made sense: "What about the second method?"
Cheng Jiayu said seriously: "The second method is to create difficulties to make the prince make mistakes!"
Third Prince:! ! !
"Brother Cheng, be careful with your words! It's not that easy to frame the prince. The Jinyiwei are all over the palace. If I am accidentally exposed, I can just stay in my fiefdom!"
Cheng Jiayu knelt down directly, with a sincere face: "I am willing to make this knife! If it succeeds, I will not take credit for it. If it fails, I will bear the responsibility and will never let Your Highness down in the slightest!"
The third prince was stunned!
There are actually people in the world who treat him like this, daring to risk the world's condemnation just to give him a chance to rise!
His eyes were slightly red, and he helped Cheng Jiayu up, saying seriously: "Brother Cheng, there is no need to be like this. There is no rush for the collection of essays. I am willing to wait for the right time. Brother Cheng, please do not take risks. I will need you in many places in the future! If you want anything, just tell me!"
Cheng Jiayu pretended to be touched: "Your Highness! I know you are kind, but taking the initiative is the best way. I just came to Your Highness and am the most suitable person to do this. Even if I fail, I will not bring trouble to Your Highness!"
"Stop talking!" The Third Prince said earnestly, "The length of time doesn't mean anything. Brother Cheng treats me sincerely, how can I let him down? I have made up my mind about this matter, so there is no need to mention it again!"
Cheng Jiayu mocked in his heart, he was indeed a perfect puppet, stupid and easy to control, but on the surface he still opened his mouth and said helplessly: "I will follow your Highness's order."
The Third Prince was satisfied and said, "Well, that's right! Now that we are in decline, lying low is the best option. Oh, by the way, I have opened a few new ironware shops in Jiangnan, and the income is not bad. I will give one to Brother Cheng later."
Cheng Jiayu shook her head quickly: "Your Highness loves me, so you can just give me some things as a reward. I must not ask for your property. What's more, Your Highness is in need of money right now. I am eager to offer my property to you, but unfortunately my family is in chaos and I am short of money. I can't help you!"
"Hey!" The Third Prince disagreed, "How can I, a prince, take your property? But now that you mention it, it reminds me that you haven't married yet, and there's no woman in your house to help you manage your family business. It's really not good! How about this, tell me if you have a sweetheart, and I'll help you find someone?"
Very good, this is what I was waiting for. Cheng Jiayu looked shy and said falsely, "No, no!"
"Hahaha!" The Third Prince immediately understood after seeing him like this, "It seems like there is one. Tell me, which family is this lady from?"
Cheng Jiayu hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "I don't know which family this lady is from. When I went to the Xu family to attend a banquet, I saw a fairy-like girl from a distance. Since then, I have been unable to sleep at night. If Your Highness can help me find out, that would be great."
The Third Prince understood: "Since you met her at the Xu family, I think she must be a cousin of the Xu family. That's good. Xu Zhen, who was engaged to you before, is gone, and you've fallen in love with a girl from the Xu family. It shows that you are destined to be with the Xu family. But, there is no clue, how can I ask for you?"
Cheng Jiayu smiled faintly: "In fact, I have a small portrait of her hidden here. I will take it out and look at it occasionally to ease my longing for her."
"Oh?" The Third Prince asked curiously, "Bring it to me?"
Cheng Jiayu then took off the sachet from her body and handed it to the third prince.
The Third Prince opened it and said jokingly, "Brother Cheng, what you are doing is not gentlemanly. If someone sees it by accident, it will affect the reputation of the girl!"
Cheng Jiayu smiled faintly and said nothing. The third prince took out a piece of paper and saw a portrait of a woman. Her clothes and jewelry were extremely exquisite, but her facial features were not drawn. It turned out to be a faceless portrait.
"This is……"
The third prince had a complicated expression. In fact, just from the way she was dressed he knew that this was his sister, Princess Changxing.
Cheng Jiayu's eyes sparkled, and she asked tentatively, "Your Highness, do you know this young lady?"
The Third Prince paused, sighed and said, "This is my sister, not the daughter of the Xu family."
"What!" Cheng Jiayu was shocked, and seemed unable to accept this fact. Then he knelt down and said, "Your Highness, please forgive me! I was ignorant and delusional! I have no intention of coveting the princess! I will be careful in my words and deeds in the future. As for marrying a wife, I will marry whoever Your Highness tells me to marry!"
Hearing this, the third prince's doubts disappeared, and he helped Cheng Jiayu up again and said, "Okay, okay, you don't know my sister's identity, so it's not wishful thinking."
Cheng Jiayu burst into tears of gratitude: "Your Highness is so broad-minded, I am ashamed! I will go home and reflect on myself now, and I will devote all my heart and soul to serving Your Highness in the future, and not think about anything else!"
The third prince did not expect that Cheng Jiayu actually liked Princess Changxing. Looking at his distraught back, he was actually moved.
If we put our heart and soul into it, wouldn't the marriage be more secure? In this way, the third prince began to consider whether it was feasible to match his sister with Cheng Jiayu.
When Cheng Jiayu returned home, he knew that his goal of marrying the princess had begun to be implemented. The important thing was not to get the princess to insist on marrying him, but to get everyone around the princess to agree to the marriage!
The third prince is the best breakthrough!
Very good, the next one is the crown prince. What does it matter if he made a mistake? He wants to get rid of the crown prince quietly and then tell the third prince that this is God’s will!
In this way, once the collection of essays comes out, the Third Prince will definitely convince Concubine Xu, and then the filter can be used on the princess.
perfect!
Cheng Jiayu, in a very good mood, went to the study, took out a landscape painting and started looking at it. At this time, Chen Wei pushed the door open.
Cheng Jiayu frowned slightly, put away the painting, and looked at her unhappily: "Why didn't you knock on the door?"
Chen Wei looked aggrieved and put down the chicken soup in her hand: "I have already knocked on the door, but the door was ajar, it's... my fault, don't be angry!"
Cheng Jiayu glanced at the chicken soup and teased her seriously: "Since you know you are wrong, you must be punished. I will punish you... drink this chicken soup!"
Chen Wei smiled shyly: "Thank you for the...punishment!"
But just as she picked up the chicken soup to drink it, Cheng Jiayu stopped her and smiled evilly: "I didn't say to drink it with this mouth above."
Chen Wei's face immediately turned red, and she was extremely shy. She looked away and said, "This... How can this be done? Besides, the couch will get wet!"
When he looked at Cheng Jiayu again, he saw that she had already started to undress and said shamelessly, "Then don't lie on the couch. The desk is quite big."
Chen Wei was really panicking now: "Books, desk?"
Cheng Jiayu hugged her and asked her to bend over and lie on the table. Then she leaned close to her ear and said, "Let's try it!"
