Chapter 429: The Paranoid Prince in the Extra Story (9)
After leaving, Ruan Jiuchao looked uneasy all the way, with nervousness and uneasiness in his eyes, and returned to his own courtyard.
Ruan Jiuchao sat on the chair in the study, a little dazed.
He didn't know when Cheng Yan fell in love with him.
But he was very sure in his heart that he didn't like the other person.
However, when Cheng Yan confessed to him, the person who suddenly appeared in his mind was Jiang Zui.
If he knew that someone else confessed to me, would he... be angry? !
Since when, whenever the topic of future husband came up, his first reaction was always Jiang Zui, who would tell him jokes, tease him, and show concern for him in his letters.
Jiang Zui's face had become blurred in his mind, but he still had fantasies about him.
The other party had mentioned countless times that he would marry me when I reached the age of 15.
But he is only one year away from his coming of age.
Will Jiang Zui show up by then? !
Thinking of this, Ruan Jiuchao inexplicably missed Jiang Zui very much, and the desire to write a letter to Jiang Zui reached its peak. Without thinking, Ruan Jiuchao unfolded the paper in front of him and began to write the letter.
He wanted to test Jiang Zui, so he told him vaguely that someone was proposing to him.
On the other side, in the capital.
Jiang Zui, the free and easy king who is in his prime and full of vigor and vitality, has long become the husband that everyone in the capital wants to marry.
The seventeen-year-old Jiang Zui had handsome eyebrows and phoenix eyes, was extremely talented and beautiful, and was the emperor's most beloved brother. Many people had long wanted to enter the Xiaoyao Palace, either openly or secretly.
However, men of similar age to Jiang Zui have either already started a family or have concubines and maids.
However, Jiang Zui was the exception. He was neither married nor had a lover. He seemed to be pure and had no desires, which made the noble ladies and brothers in the capital sigh with emotion.
With such a good candidate for a husband, I wonder who can win Jiang Zui's favor.
Jiang Zui was still handling official business when he received the letter from Fuzhou County.
A few years ago, Jiang Yimo finally married the woman of his dreams and gave birth to a prince.
I don’t know if it’s because of the late emperor or something else, but in any case, Jiang Yimo has only one queen in his harem, and they only have one prince.
The prince and Jiang Zui have a very good relationship.
Jiang Zui took the letter and opened it. After a few minutes, after reading it, he held the letter paper more tightly, causing wrinkles on the paper.
Jiang Zui frowned tightly, with some anxiety in his eyes.
For so many years, he has been on guard against the appearance of the protagonist, but he once asked Ruan Jiuchao jokingly about it, and the other party said no. He knew that the protagonist Cheng Yan and Ruan Jiuchao were neighbors, so he also asked, but Ruan Jiuchao just said he was not familiar with them.
He thought he had changed the plot.
It turns out...it was waiting for him.
Ruan Heng's friend?!
Haha...Okay, his damn brother-in-law actually caused him trouble.
No, he couldn't wait any longer.
He originally planned to marry Ruan Jiuchao directly after she came of age.
But now...his plans had to be advanced.
After reading the letter, Jiang Zui did not reply.
He planned to give Ruan Jiuchao a surprise.
Jiang Zui simply went straight to the palace to find Jiang Yimo.
Jiang Zui left the palace at the age of twelve and lived alone. Even so, Jiang Yimo did not revoke Jiang Zui's special rights in the palace.
Jiang Zui could still enter and leave the palace freely, and he did not need to kneel when meeting the emperor and empress.
Jiang Yimoxi was afraid that becoming the emperor would alienate him from Jiang Zui, so he eliminated all differences in status.
Even the ministers in the court expressed their disapproval, saying that if Jiang Zui was doted on so much, to put it bluntly, what would they do if Jiang Zui rebelled one day?
Jiang Zui's current treatment is even better than that of the prince.
Even though Jiang Yimo is married now, in his heart, the most important person is still Jiang Zui.
Jiang Yimo directly retorted, not to mention that his brother wanted to rebel, if Jiang Zui really wanted the throne, he would be willing to give it up without saying a word.
After these words were spoken, the ministers were speechless.
They also wanted to sow discord between Jiang Yimo and Jiang Zui, but Jiang Yimo simply ignored it.
Jiang Yimo was so good to Jiang Zui, so Jiang Zui naturally reciprocated the favor.
As soon as Jiang Yimo saw Jiang Zui, he cheered, "Xiao Zui, why are you here?!"
Since Jiang Zui left the palace, he rarely came without permission.
"Brother Emperor, I want to marry a husband." Jiang Zui said directly.
Hearing Jiang Zui's words, Jiang Yimo was extremely happy and said, "Have you figured it out?! I will issue an order for whichever brother you want."
"Brother, you know."
As soon as these words came out, the smile on Jiang Yimo's mouth froze instantly, and he said: "Are you...are you sure you want that Ruan family brother?!"
He thought his brother was just doing it on a whim, but he didn't expect he could persist for so long.
Even so, he was still in a dilemma.
He wanted Jiang Zui to get what he wanted, but he also didn't want to make Ruan Yu sad.
He was afraid that his younger brother would marry the young man from the Ruan family on a whim, but then find out that he didn't like him. This... How should he explain this to Ruan Yu?
He sent someone to inquire and found out that Ruan Jiuchao was the apple of Ruan Yu's eye and was very doted on.
Although Ruan Yu is already the governor of Fuzhou County, he has made a lot of contributions to Fuzhou County and several surrounding counties over the years. He is also thinking of promoting him this year or next year.
Putting all this aside, he and Ruan Yu are good friends. If Ruan Jiuchao is let down by his brother, he... he will definitely stand on his brother's side, but if so, the friendship between him and Ruan Yu... will probably end here.
Jiang Zui nodded firmly and said, “Brother Emperor, I am sure.
I just want to pray."
After a pause, Jiang Zui said earnestly: "Brother, why do you think I have not cared about marriage for so many years?
I am the same as you, brother.
I just want to find a husband whom I love and who loves me too.
Since I was nine years old, I have made up my mind that I will marry every day in my life."
Jiang Zui's words made Jiang Yimo sigh deeply and said, "I'm sorry for putting you in such a difficult position, Xiaozui."
Jiang Yimo thought that Jiang Zui was also influenced by the late emperor and hated people who were indecisive and promiscuous.
"Royal brother, why did you transfer my father-in-law to the capital?" Jiang Zui asked with a pleading tone.
Jiang Yimo burst out laughing and said, "We haven't even gotten married yet and already my father-in-law is calling me?!
Next year, after the New Year, I will demote him."
It’s only September now, and there are still several months until next year.
Jiang Zui frowned and said, "Brother, then I...I want to go to Fuzhou County."
"What are you going there for?!" Jiang Yimo asked subconsciously.
Jiang Zui scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Chao Chao wrote to me saying that someone asked him to marry her, I...I was worried, so..."
Jiang Zui didn't finish the rest of his words, but Jiang Yimo already understood his meaning.
Jiang Yimo laughed loudly and said, "Hahaha, I was wondering why you are so impatient? You didn't want to wait for these few months, so this is the reason?!"
"Royal brother!" Jiang Zui said shyly as he listened to Jiang Yimo's teasing voice.
"Why are you still shy?!" Jiang Yimo chased after him, "Isn't it the time when you teased me?!"
A few years ago, when he met the Queen, Jiang Zui teased him. Unexpectedly, now it is his turn to tease his own brother.
Seeing his brother's expression about to explode, Jiang Yimo quickly changed the subject and said, "Do you want me to issue an order in advance?"
"No need." Jiang Zui shook his head and said, "I'm afraid I'll have to spend the New Year there this time. Chao Chao and I will come back together in the spring."
"Humph!" Jiang Yimo said softly, "Chao Chao, Chao Chao, you're calling me that in a rather intimate way. It's still unclear whether the young man likes you or not."
"Chao Chao must like me." Jiang Zui answered without even thinking.
"How do you know that she likes you? You haven't met her in all these years, and you only rely on letters. Who knows, maybe she already has someone she likes." Jiang Yimo teased.
Jiang Zui was furious and said, "No way."
"Royal brother, just wait to drink at Chao Chao and I's wedding wine."
After saying that, Jiang Zui turned and left without looking back, but raised his hand and waved, saying loudly: "Just wait and see."
Jiang Yimo looked at Jiang Zui's elegant figure, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly, and past scenes instantly emerged in his mind.
My younger brother has grown so big already.
It’s time to get married.
Hey!
