    ☆, Jin Yi Lu 10

    “Today I went to Bao’en Temple to seek marriage for Yao’er, and the fortune-telling that came out was auspicious!” At the dinner table, Mrs. Meng’s face was full of interest. “Master Lingquan, who interpreted the fortune-telling, said that our Yao’er is in the red luan star. Although there are twists and turns in our marriage, the result will definitely be flowers and wealth, and the house will be filled with gold and jade. My heart, which was still in a state of anxiety, can be regarded as settled in my stomach.”

    Master Meng sat next to Madam and quickly echoed: “Yes, Madam, you are so thoughtful. Master Lingquan of Baoen Temple.” He thought for a moment, who is this monk? He has never heard of it, but continued without hesitation, “He is quite famous. I heard that his interpretation of the signatures is extremely accurate.”

    he After saying this, Mrs. Meng became even more happy: “Yao’er, did you hear that? It seems to me that your cousin Hongwen is the destined one. Otherwise, why would the Red Luan star not move earlier and later? It happened to move when your cousin’s family went to Beijing.”

    Yaoji didn’t want to displease Mrs. Meng, so she could only agree with him a few times, and buried her head in her mouth to pick up the rice, but she was thinking in her heart, is the red Luan star moving?Mother, if you knew that someone proposed to me, I’m afraid you wouldn’t feel that the red star is moving on cousin Hongwen’s head.

    It’s just that she couldn’t accept the man’s marriage proposal. At first, she suspected that the man had taken the wrong medicine.After confirming that Su Jing was sober and not drunk or burned out her brain, she refused he without hesitation, and the reason she used was quite ruthless: “If Jin Wu wants to be responsible for me, there is no need. Tell the truth to Jin Wu, if I have anything to do with you, Jin Wu, not to mention that my career as a royal censor may come to an end, and my father will be the first to break my legs.”

    The girl’s words were sonorous and powerful: “I am a member of the Meng family who have been loyal to the court for generations since my great-grandfather. My grandfather, father, and I have never formed any clique for personal gain, let alone have any involvement with the traitors who confuse the government and the public. I don’t want to be kicked out by my father, so please think twice.”

    In retrospect, Su Jing did not tear her into pieces after saying these words, which can be said to be very self-restrained.The man just stared at her with a cold, handsome face and a gloomy expression. What he received was that she refused to give in, and even looked back with a bit of pride.

    Finally he let go of she and said calmly: “I will send someone to take you home.”

    “No,” the girl grabbed her messed up robe, “I am not as powerful as King Wu, and I still have to control the government.”

    At this time, she looked like a wild cat that had been victorious. Su Jing was angry and funny at the same time. She glanced at her slender legs that were not yet wearing pants: “Do you think you still have the strength to go out on the street now?”

    “You!…Rogue.”

    The marriage proposal ended here, and even now Yao Ji doesn’t understand whether Su Jing was sincere or her head was burned out.She didn’t want to have anything to do with that man, but someone wanted to find her.After going to the office that day, she rode home. When she reached Yudai Bridge, she was stopped by a familiar person.

    “Miss Qiongyu?” The girl on horseback tightened the rope, still wearing the crimson peacock pattern official uniform, and still looking as proud as she did that day.

    Qiong Yu lowered her head, hiding the jealousy in her eyes, and knelt in front of her horse: “Meng Zhongcheng, I did something wrong that day. I beg Zhongcheng to forgive me. Seeing that Zhongcheng was not injured, please let me go!”

    Yao Ji was a little confused at first, but after understanding the meaning of her words, her eyes suddenly became sharp.

    So…she was tricked into drinking Hehuan Powder in the Jiaofang that day. Was it this woman?At that time, she also thought about who wanted to assassinate her. When Su Jing sent someone to send her back, she asked her subordinates to say: “Meng Zhongcheng need not worry about this matter. King Wu will definitely give Zhongcheng an explanation.”

    “I…” Qiong Yu looked haggard, no longer as beautiful as before.When she thought about what happened to her after the incident was revealed, Master Su did not do anything to her. At that time, she was pleasantly surprised and thought that she actually had a place in Master Su’s heart. Unexpectedly, what awaited her was a never-ending nightmare.

    She lost Master Su’s blessing and instantly fell from an unattainable courtesan to a helpless bitch.Yes, no matter how outstanding her talent is, what’s the use of her far-reaching reputation? When she is given up by that man, the halo that is placed on her will only make her more and more the fat that men covet.

    She had never regretted her greed like that. She finally understood that everything she had was given by Su Jing, and that man didn’t even need to say a word, just showed his attitude, he could push her into hell.

    “Because I’m…jealous of you.”

    “Jealous?” Yao Ji became increasingly puzzled, “I’ve only met you twice.”

    “But I could tell at a glance,” the woman smiled miserably, the tears in her eyes were both regret and hatred, “Don’t you know, he has never, ever touched me. The reason why he protected me and allowed me to act under his banner is just because… he regarded me as your substitute.”

    Stand-in…

    Until Qiong Yu left, Yao Ji was still stunned and couldn’t react. Su Jing used other women as her substitute?Doesn’t that mean… She wondered if Qiong Yu had made a mistake, and there was another voice in her heart that kept shouting, asking him, asking him what was going on!

    She took a long breath, waved her riding whip and ran towards the Qingyi River.Su Jing is still in the Yaxuxuan on the second floor, but she is no longer with the beauty, and there are no other newcomers.She felt increasingly uncertain. Could what Qiong Yu said be true?If Su Jing admitted it, how would she deal with it?

    The depression in her heart finally made her ask her doubts. The man glanced at her lightly: “Do you think she looks like you?”

    “Well…” The girl thought about it for a moment, it didn’t look like it…

    “She made a mistake.” He put down the book in his hand, his expression as indifferent as ever, “I didn’t expect that she would still come to you. It seems that the lesson given to her was not enough.”

    “Don’t,” Yao Ji hurriedly stopped her, “You have to spare others and spare them, but you insist on killing them all like this? Be careful one day it comes back and bites you suddenly.”

    These words were just blurted out. After she finished speaking, she found a smile flashing in Su Jing’s eyes. “I wanted to ask before,” he said slowly, “You have warned me several times. Could it be that… you are worried about me?”

    “Who, who is worried about you?” The girl’s cheeks instantly turned red, but when she faced the man’s dull black eyes, she was unable to say anything.

    “She is not your substitute,” he said suddenly, “No one can replace you.”
