Chapter 659 A few words led into the ditch
Leng Rongyue glanced at Jiang Ruofu, who was a few steps away from her, and then looked at the old woman who had just whispered with Jiang Ruofu.
The old woman leaned close to Jiang Ruofu's ear and spoke, covering her mouth with her hand.
Leng Rongyue couldn't hear clearly what the old woman said in Jiang Ruofu's ear.
Can't read lips either.
However, it was impossible not to hear the exclamation that Jiang Ruofu let out after hearing what the old woman said.
"is her!"
Who is that she?
Look at that old woman staring at me...
She must have recognized me.
Or maybe...she guessed who she was.
It doesn’t matter if that old woman recognized me or guessed who I am.
He didn't want to face the competition and entanglement with women like Jiang Ruofu.
Although, Xiao Jingyu has clearly expressed his feelings to her.
However, her engagement with Xiao Jingyu had changed due to the death of Qinxing Marquis Leng Xian.
Until Emperor Hong De makes a clear statement, the prospects of the engagement remain unclear.
At this time, she was neither convenient nor willing to come into conflict with the other so-called noble ladies who coveted Xiao Jingyu.
This scramble is ridiculous and boring.
I despise myself.
Besides, whether or not to annul the imperial decree granting marriage is up to the emperor;
Whether the engagement continues or not is a matter between himself and Xiao Jingyu;
Who Xiao Jingyu likes and who he wants to marry is Xiao Jingyu's business.
It doesn't mean that Xiao Jingyu will marry anyone who wants to marry him;
Whoever wants to marry into Prince Yu’s mansion can become Prince Yu’s princess.
Even if these women want to get married, it depends on whether Xiao Jingyu is willing to marry them!
Based on my understanding of Xiao Jingyu, none of these women who were full of greed, disregarding shame and dignity, wearing heavy makeup and glamorous clothes, and running to the temple to flirt and seduce others would catch Xiao Jingyu's eye...
Otherwise, Xiao Jingyu would not be Xiao Jingyu!
Even if Xiao Jingyu really wanted to choose a princess from these so-called noble ladies...
What about the other women?
We can't just accept everyone who comes and take them all into Prince Yu's palace, right?
These so-called noble ladies are nothing more than making a fool of themselves, losing face, and becoming a joke, and eventually becoming the topic of conversation among people in Beijing after dinner!
Thinking of this, Leng Rongyue actually felt more sympathy for these women.
Ugh!
It's nothing but a wishful thinking!
I hope it doesn't get to the point where it can't be resolved.
In this era, a woman’s reputation cannot be ignored!
However, I now have neither the position nor the obligation to persuade them to quit;
As for these noble ladies who are full of greed and desire, if they could understand this truth, they would not chase Xiao Jingyu up Yunxiang Mountain!
Then again...
This is the Qingguo Temple in Yunxiang Mountain...
At least I listened to the sutras for two days and worshipped Buddha for two days;
At least I have understood a little bit of Buddhism.
I can still be more tolerant of these noble ladies who came to Qingguo Temple in Yunxiang Mountain with greed, anger and ignorance.
I just hope they can turn back!
Leng Rongyue only had this thought for a moment.
Retracting his gaze, Leng Rongyue whispered to the four people in blue, "Let's go!"
"Yes, miss!"
The people in green, blue and purple all responded.
"stop!
Did I let you go?"
Before Leng Rongyue, Qingyi and the other three could take a step, they heard Jiang Ruofu's angry shout from the opposite side.
Leng Rongyue closed her eyes impatiently and looked at Jiang Ruofu again...
Leng Rongyue thought to herself, "Does Jiang Ruofu really think that she is the confirmed consort of Prince Yu?
Or do you think you are really that good-natured and weak and can be bullied?
Leng Rongyue’s lips curled up slightly, and she said lightly: “Miss Jiang, I just heard that you are from a noble family of the Second Assistant Mansion.
Is this... true?"
"Of course it's true!"
Jiang Ruofu raised her chin habitually.
Suddenly he remembered... Leng Rongyue had once mocked him for having big nostrils and being ugly, so he hurriedly put his chin back.
"Miss Jiang was born into a noble family, so she must have received a good upbringing in the boudoir of the Cifu Mansion, right?"
"of course!"
Jiang Ruofu almost raised her chin again, but fortunately she stopped it in time.
"Oh!
Then... poetry and books... Miss Jiang should have read a lot, right?"
Leng Rongyue asked very seriously.
"of course!"
Jiang Ruofu looked at Leng Rongyue with haughty eyes.
Leng Rongyue nodded, "If that's the case... has Miss Jiang never heard of a common saying?"
“A colloquialism?
What idiom?
Jiang Ruofu asked doubtfully.
Leng Rongyue opened her red lips and slowly uttered five words:
“A good dog stays out of the way!”
"You...you...you...you dare to call me a dog?"
Jiang Ruofu was so angry that she almost ran away.
Leng Rongyue had a smile in her eyes, "Oh!
She is indeed a lady from a noble family brought up in the Cifu Mansion!
He is really well-read and knowledgeable!
As soon as I said this, Miss Jiang understood it instantly.
This comprehension... is really admirable!"
"presumptuous!"
Jiang Ruofu was embarrassed and angry...
I secretly hated myself for not being more careful!
I was led into trouble just by a few words.
"You... stop talking nonsense in front of me!
If you anger me, the consequences will be unbearable!"
