Chapter 475 Crazy, crazy
Qi Yizheng returned to Xiangman Garden in the evening. Seeing that Jiang Yingying didn't seem to want to reply, he said angrily, "The three-day deadline is up. What do you think?"
Jiang Yingying put down the broom in her hand and put her hands on her waist: "I don't want to." She said it straightforwardly and directly, leaving no room for maneuver.
Qi Yizheng frowned: "Why?" Even if he died, he wanted to know why he died.
Jiang Yingying looked at him with complicated eyes: "You and I have different identities." One is an official, the other is a thief. Even if they are thieves who have retired from the underworld, they are irreconcilable.
Qi Yizheng said: "It's okay, I don't mind."
Seeing that he was stubborn, Jiang Yingying used her trump card: "Although I am an ordinary woman, I still have high requirements for my future husband. He cannot take concubines, and all the money he earns must belong to me. General Qi can't do these two things alone, right?"
Jiang Yingying raised her eyebrows. How could a man be faithful to one woman? Besides, Qi Yizheng was stingy and mean. She didn't believe that after she made these two requests, Qi Yizheng would continue to stare at her.
Qi Yizheng frowned tightly, and said after a while: "Okay, I promise you that I will not take a concubine in this life. As for the money... I can give you half, and I have to use the other half to support my parents."
Jiang Yingying looked at him with wide eyes, thinking she was hallucinating.
Qi Yizheng took out a hairpin from his bosom. He had listened to the emperor's advice humbly and bought it specially for Jiang Yingying. He wanted to impress Jiang Yingying with practical actions, give her gifts, fulfill her requests, show her care, and let her slowly like him.
Jiang Yingying really didn't expect that Qi Yizheng would agree so quickly. She scratched her hair in annoyance and almost pulled it out bald.
"No... I mean... could it be that you have been possessed by another spirit? How can you agree to such a strict request?" Jiang Yingying couldn't believe it.
Qi Yizheng narrowed his eyes and said, "So, I agree to your request, and I can also sign a document to say that I will never regret it. But you can't regret it either. When will you marry me? Let's set a date."
"Ahhhhhh... It's crazy!" Jiang Yingying was overwhelmed. She threw away the broom and ran away in a hurry.
Qi Yizheng looked at Jiang Yingying who was "fleeing" and curled his lips in a good mood: "Little guy, fight with me!"
The problem of the bride was solved, and Qi Yizheng's worries were finally put to rest. He decided to go home tomorrow to report to his parents, and then take back the two-story house that was rewarded to him by the emperor and was still being rented out, and renovate it. He was going to start a family.
In Changle Palace, Tao Yanyan was looking through a pile of business cards and portraits of young masters from various families in the capital. After flipping through them, he felt that Gu Yi was the best match for Xinlan.
"Ah, so tiring. Being a matchmaker is not only a mental job but also a physical job." Tao Yanyan put away the portraits and returned them to Mingyue: "None of them are attractive, take them all away."
Mingyue put away the portrait with a smile and said jokingly, "Your Majesty, after seeing His Majesty's heavenly appearance, you naturally look down on other men. In fact, there are quite a few outstanding young men among these young men. I heard that among them, there are four handsome men who are admired by the noble ladies in the capital."
Tao Yanyan became interested when he heard this: "Oh, who are they?"
Mingyue said: "They are the Third Young Master Qi from the Qi family, the Second Young Master Fang from the Fang family, the Young Master Li from the Li family, and the Second Young Master Gu from the Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion."
Tao Yanyan was stunned. She didn't know the other young masters, but she knew the second young master Gu. However, compared with Gu Yi, her second cousin seemed less tough.
"It would be nice if Xinlan was introduced to the second young master of Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion." Tao Yanyan muttered to herself.
"What's not bad?" He Linzhang's voice came from outside the door. Mingyue quickly put away all the portraits, saluted the emperor, and hurried out.
"Your Majesty, you came very early today. Have you reviewed all the memorials?" Tao Yanyan asked with his head tilted.
He Linzhang shook his head: "They are all in the study. I will review them later. I came here early because I want to tell you a good news."
Tao Yanyan looked at him curiously, his eyes sparkling.
"Qi Yizheng is getting married to Jiang Yingying." As soon as He Linzhang finished speaking, Tao Yanyan opened his eyes wide in disbelief: "Ah? The two of them?"
One is a general, the other is the most famous thief in the world. This CP...will only make people have a balanced diet.
He Linzhang smiled and said, "When I first heard about it, I was as surprised as you are. But seeing Qi Yizheng's anxious look, I knew he was trapped this time. Otherwise, why would he give up the princess and choose a commoner girl instead?"
Tao Yanyan felt a little embarrassed about Jiang Yingying's identity, but if she really changed her ways, she might be given a chance, so she didn't object.
"He has been with me for more than ten years. I feel at ease seeing that he has finally met the person who will accompany him for the rest of his life." After He Linzhang said this, he thought of another study companion - Li Cairen's brother, and frowned slightly.
Tao Yanyan didn't notice the emperor's strangeness. She changed her position and nestled into He Linzhang's arms, saying softly, "General Qi is really quick to find his ideal partner. It seems that more contact between men and women can really create sparks."
She thought about Xinlan's request to arrange two more meetings with Gu Yi, so she asked, "Your Majesty, are there any events taking place recently? I want to help Xinlan and my cousin get together again."
He Linzhang was puzzled: "General Gu didn't like Xinlan, did he? Why did you still want to tie them up by force?"
Tao Yanyan pouted: "Xinlan is so stubborn. She said that three times is the limit, and asked me to arrange it three times. Alas, this sister is too honest. She won't give up until she reaches the Yellow River."
He Linzhang thought of Gu Yi's unclear feelings for Tao Yanyan and narrowed his eyes. "We should indeed arrange more for them. I am going hunting this year and originally planned not to bring my female relatives. If you want to arrange a meeting for them, why not follow me and call Xinlan."
When Tao Yanyan heard about going hunting, he became interested: "Okay, okay, I want to go. I have never seen hunting before. The children must want to go too."
Seeing that she was already a mother but still had a playful look, He Linzhang shook his head lovingly. After all, the little concubine was still young and it would probably take several more years for her to become mature.
Qi Yizheng was in high spirits as he enjoyed the good news. The courtyard was renovated, the engagement procedures were carried out step by step, and even his steps became lighter when he went in and out of the palace every day.
Because he and Gu Yi were going to escort the emperor out of the city for hunting, Qi Yizheng went to the military camp early to discuss the details with Gu Yi.
"All of the above will be arranged. General Qi just needs to protect His Majesty and his entourage." General Gu Yi explained the situation of the officers and soldiers guards one by one.
Qi Yizheng said: "Okay, this arrangement is very appropriate. By the way, I will be responsible for the Imperial Concubine, Princess Xinlan, the Virtuous Concubine, and several princes and princesses. General Gu can lead people to provide protection outside."
When he heard Xinlan's name, Gu Yi frowned and felt a little annoyed.
