Very soon, someone reported the situation in the backyard to Qin Ye. Qin Ye was immediately relieved. He had wanted to tell King Zhongshun directly to make him give up on this idea, but he was afraid that King Zhongshun would act up and rob him, so he held back and did not say anything. He thought that it wouldn't be too late to argue with King Zhongshun after the Jia family's son-in-law had gone far away!
"Your Highness," he patiently advised,"you are a noble prince of the imperial court. You should set an example for the people." Things like today are strictly prohibited by the law. I really can't bear to see your highness make a mistake and be laughed at by the world.”
Ning Jun walked up the steps." Let them laugh! I only ask for a clear conscience!"
He wanted to walk further in, but Qin Ye hurriedly stopped him." Your Highness, my daughter is of a mediocre stature. It's difficult for her to enter the hall of elegance. You're a descendant of the royal family. How can you be worthy of her? Please reconsider, Your Highness!"
Ning Jun grabbed Qin Ye's hand." Father-in-law, you don't have to say anything. I've decided on your daughter today. Just let me bring it home!" He sneered. If he still dared to stop them, the dozens of guards below would not be to be trifled with.
He signaled with his eyes, and the guards began to chase out the Qin family's irrelevant people. Soon, only the two sons-in-law, the matchmaker, and a few close friends were left in the front hall.
Seeing that things had come to this, Qin Ye could not care less about etiquette. He stomped his foot and said,"I say, Prince Zhongshun, you have a high position and authority. As long as you say the word, what kind of woman can't you have? Why did he have to find trouble with the Chen family?”
Ning Jun was still smiling as usual." Now that I've said it, as long as your daughter becomes my princess consort, why can't you make an exception?”
The veins on Qin Ye's forehead popped." No, no! My daughter has already been betrothed to the Jia family of Ningguo Manor. The engagement is still there, and she is already a member of the Jia family whether she lives or dies. I advise your highness not to force others. It doesn't matter if I lose face, but if I implicate the Jia family to be criticized by the secular world, it will be my fault.”
"Why? Do you think I'm afraid of the son of a third-grade general?" Ning Jun sneered. Or is father-in-law threatening me?”
Qin Ye hurriedly shook his head." I don't dare. I just want to remind Your Highness that justice is in the hearts of the people. Aren't you afraid that rumors will spread and others will follow suit?”
Ning Jun laughed." I've always been frank and upright. What can a mere commoner do to me with a few words of gossip?" Father-in-law, seeing that the auspicious time has arrived, please invite Gu wangfei out so that I can enter the palace to show Retired Emperor, Empress Dowager, and the Emperor. You don't know, but they've been so worried about my marriage. Especially the empress dowager, she would always say a few words every time she entered the palace to greet her. Now that I have finally found a wife that she likes, you can't add to the trouble. Let me tell you this, it's not a big deal to anger me, Ning Jun. If he dares to make the Empress Dowager unhappy, I will make him unhappy for the rest of his life!”
Qin Ye opened his mouth a few times, but he did not dare to persuade her again even though his face was red. He could only look anxiously at the door.
A servant of the Qin family came in from outside in a panic and panted heavily."Old Master, it's bad. The groom's team is still blocking the entrance of the street. I'm afraid they won't be able to come over for a while.”
"Then did you see the palanquin?" Qin Ye asked anxiously.”He wanted to ask where the palanquin was.
The servant thought about it carefully." Master, the son-in-law's palanquin is still stuck there and can't move!”
Qin Ye thought that something was wrong. How many palanquins did the Ningguo Manor send? He looked at Ning Jun worriedly and quietly asked someone to verify the situation.
In the end, the Jia family naturally picked him up.
Perhaps my son-in-law has a trick up his sleeve? It was just that he shouldn't have hidden it from her too. That was good, that was good!
Ning Jun had never been a good-tempered person. He had been here for so long, but he didn't even have a cup of tea. He didn't even care about a seat. Did he think that what he said was not important?
"Lord Father-in-law, I advised you nicely and didn't want to make things difficult for both of us. However, Lord Father-in-law has the intention of stalling for time and waiting for that Jia Rong to come over to fight.”
As he spoke, the guards of the Imperial Residence rushed forward and forced Qin Ye and the others into the backyard.
Qin Ye also wanted to do his best to block it, but they were all civil officials and were powerless. How could they be a match for these arrogant scoundrels? He pushed her lightly and took a few steps back.
This was the result of the guards holding back 90% of their strength for the sake of the king's father-in-law. Otherwise, if they had hit him with their sticks, they would not care if he lived or died!
Seeing that Ning Jun and the others were about to break in, Jia Rong and the others finally stumbled into the Qin residence.
One of the hairpin flowers on Jia Rong's gauze hat had already been broken, the red cape on his green robe was in a mess, and there were many footprints on his black boots.
He was followed by Head Chief Lai Sheng and a few small butlers. They shouted anxiously,""Father-in-law, this little son-in-law has come to fetch the bride! Quickly…"
They had heard that someone was causing trouble and snatching the bride. How could they tolerate this? No matter who it was, if the bride was really snatched away, would the Ningguo Manor lose face?
This was intolerable!
Therefore, they hurriedly entered the door and looked up to see a person wearing a winged crown and a dragon robe.!
Jia Rong immediately saw stars. He was so flustered and exasperated that he didn't ask who was so daring.
He stopped running and was about to turn back. The one behind was still charging forward. The two carriages collided and fell.
The supposedly high-spirited and handsome groom was now lying prostrate in the dust.
"Good son-in-law!" When Qin Ye saw that Jia Rong had arrived, it was as if he had seen his savior." Come quickly…" Then, he looked awkwardly at the disheveled Jia Rong, who could not get up for a long time.
Lai Sheng and the others hurriedly helped Jia Rong up." Master Xiao Rong, are you alright?!"”
Although Jia Rong had never seen King Zhongshun with her own eyes, she had been in the Divine Capital for a long time. There were only a handful of silkpants in the Divine Capital who could afford to wear such a dragon robe. The only one who could do such a thing was King Zhongshun. His deeds were naturally well-known. As early as four or five years ago, he was drunk and led his soldiers straight into the Imperial Censor's house. He insisted on removing the bride's veil at the wedding. So be it, but he still had to comment on it, causing the bride to be so embarrassed that she almost hanged herself.
His legs and stomach were trembling. He knew that the old man had taken a fancy to him. He would not dare to come even if he was beaten to death!
Qin Ye was still calling him, so Jia Rong took the opportunity to hate Qin Ye.
He really did a lot of harm to people and implicated our Ningguo Manor!
Thinking of this, he hurriedly tidied up his clothes and ran over to Ning Jun to kowtow." I, Jia Rong, pay my respects to Prince Zhongshun!”
The correct attitude and the sincerity in his tone made Ning Jun, who had originally planned to confront Jia Rong head-on, stunned.
Fortunately, Ning Jun also changed his mind quickly. He put on an air and said in a deep voice,"Forget it! Are you here to pick up the bride?"
Its eyes stared at him like a ferocious tiger.
Jia Rong smiled and stood respectfully in front of Ning Jun." Your Highness, it was originally the case.”Lai Sheng hurriedly tugged at his sleeve.
Jia Rong didn't know what he meant. In a panic, he blurted out,"If this lowly one knew that this would happen, this lowly one wouldn't have come today. I'm willing to give it to you.”These were his sincere words.
Ning Jun was stunned for a long time.
He couldn't be blamed for this. After all, he had only been in this world for a little more than a day. How could he, who was originally a lowly citizen, understand the honor of a superior?
It turned out that the personalities here were divided into levels, and he was the highest level.
Today, when Jia Rong knelt down, he finally felt the true meaning of the word noble. The so-called being below one person and above ten thousand people was no longer a myth.
Ning Jun had no choice but to re-recognize his identity.
I am a first-class prince!
I am the emperor's younger brother, the youngest son of the Retired Emperor and Empress Dowager!
In my eyes, the laws of the imperial court are nothing!
Ning Jun, who suddenly understood this point, was a little dazed. His mentality had changed, and his way of doing things had naturally changed.
At this moment, Ning Jun had a domineering aura. Even though he was still standing like before, the nobility that was deeply rooted in his blood made the people around him want to bow down.
This was the true demeanor of a prince!
Qin Ye no longer dared to argue with Ning Jun. If he had not been forced into a dead end earlier, he would not have stood up straight and spoken no matter how upright he was.
Speaking of which, there were only a few people who could stand tall in front of the Prince, other than the few Pavilion Elders!
Back to the main topic, Ning Jun collected his mood and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly."She should be my person. What do I want you to do?"
Jia Rong cupped his hands and smiled apologetically.”
Qin Ye pointed at Jia Rong with his mouth agape." How could you do this? How can my daughter marry a second time? What a disgrace! What a disgrace!"
Jia Rong said to him with a straight face,"That's right. You're marrying a daughter twice. My Ningguo Manor hasn't found trouble with you yet!" What are you thinking of framing us?”
Since she couldn't afford to offend Ning Jun, Jia Rong immediately turned the gun and scolded Qin Ye.
Qin Ye was a righteous person. Otherwise, he wouldn't have argued with reason. Who knew that Jia Rong would be so useless? The moment she came, she would change her tune and abandon her good wife just like that! It was really beyond his expectations.
He couldn't catch his breath and was about to roll his eyes.
Ning Jun was close to him. He took two steps forward and helped him breathe. He smiled and advised,"Father-in-law, don't be so angry. When we bring wangfei back, this one will treat you to a drink! The best imperial wine."
Qin Ye looked at Ning Jun, then at the uneasy Jia Rong, and sighed.
"My daughter is already betrothed to the Jia family. If the Jia family is willing to sell her, it's up to them to decide.”
Hey, you old fogey!
Jia Rong almost cursed out loud. If Qin Ye had just nodded in agreement with him, the engagement between the two families would have been canceled.
No one would be embarrassed, and everyone would be happy.
Now, Qin Ye's words had pulled everyone back to the starting point. Would Jia Rong not be hopping mad?
Lai Sheng came out and said," Your Highness, Mr. Qin, Master Xiao Rong, in this servant's humble opinion, we can't just stay here. Why don't we go back and inform Master and Madam first and invite them over to discuss with Your Highness and Mr. Qin?" This is such a big matter, our master can't make the decision.”
Jia Rong quickly nodded in agreement." Butler Lai is right. I can't be a family.”
Qin Ye continued," That's good too. I reckon that my daughter's bridal sedan has already entered the Ningguo Manor!" Son-in-law, hurry back and get married."
"What? What was going on? What sedan chair did you send back?" Jia Rong's hair stood on end. He clearly didn't ask anyone to do that!
He saw Ning Jun's malicious gaze and hurriedly explained,""Wangye, this lowly one really didn't know and definitely didn't send another bridal sedan chair to secretly bring her back!”
Ning Jun made a countercharge." If you didn't take it, could it be that I took it? If I accept it, would I still talk nonsense with you and not enter the palace to report the good news?”As he spoke, he ordered the guards," Go in and search! See if anyone is here!"
Dozens of guards rushed in like wolves and tigers, scaring the maids so much that they didn't even have time to hide.
There was chaos.
The guards reported that the Princess Consort had indeed disappeared!
This was even worse!
Ning Jun sat in the middle of the hall." Which one of you can explain to me? Are you guys colluding with each other to abduct people, or are you guys scamming people for money? Speak!" He slammed it heavily on the table, scaring the people below until their legs trembled.
A few matchmakers and friends who had been implicated immediately kowtowed and cried out," Your Highness, this has nothing to do with us. Qin Shi, where did the Princess Consort go? We really don't know anything. We beg Your Highness to understand!”
Qin Ye was also confused. He even widened his eyes and questioned Jia Rong,""You really didn't pick him up? The person who came said that it was your idea to pick her up first and then bring her home!”
"Nonsense!" Jia Rong said. Why would I do such a thing! You must have wanted to break off the engagement and deliberately blamed it on me. It must be like this! Simply muddle-headed!"
He spoke without thinking.
Ning Jun's face was as black as ink, and his expression was as dark as water." I will count to three. If you don't hand over my princess consort, I will personally capture you and send you to the Guardian Office of the Royal Guards! One! Two!"
Before he could say anything, Jia Rong had an idea. She knelt down anxiously and said,"Your Highness, this lowly one is willing to cancel the engagement with the Qin Clan. I only hope that Your Highness will be merciful and find the Qin Clan. Then, I will be at ease.”
You removed it yourself, it has nothing to do with me!
Also, you guys were the ones who lost Ke Qing. I didn't snatch him away!
When everyone saw that Ning Jun was still holding out a finger, Jia Rong finally understood. She stepped forward and kicked Qin Ye." You just have to nod your head, and everyone will be fine!”
Qin Ye looked at Jia Rong angrily and could only nod helplessly." Since the Jia family has broken off the engagement, my Qin family will listen to you. We will return all the betrothal gifts immediately!”
"No need. It's the Jia family's fault. We'll just make it a congratulatory gift!" Lai Sheng said.”
Everyone had guessed that Ning Jun had cheated Ke Qing away, but Ning Jun insisted on not admitting it. What could they do?
Humiliation was indeed a little humiliating. As the saying went, a wise man would not take advantage of the situation in front of him. He would make plans when he returned.
He couldn't just let this matter go. He had to get back at her.
Otherwise, if the faces of the Jia Family and Rong Ning Mansion are stepped on by others, who would still think highly of us?
Just wait and see, even wangye can't do whatever he wants!
