Chapter 165 Prepare for a rainy day
At noon that day, Jin Chu didn't even have lunch, and hurriedly bid farewell to the wife of Marquis Jinchuan again.
Unlike previous situations where the servants had warmly welcomed her, this time she arrived at the door alone.
Looking at the towering gate of Jingchuan Marquis Mansion, Jin Chu sighed silently in his heart.
Nothing is perfect in the world. Since there is no possibility for her and Zhao Huaiqing to get close, it will be difficult for her to get along harmoniously with the Marquis' wife who loves her son deeply.
Today's showdown is not just about the Jingchuan Marquis' Mansion, I'm afraid she will rarely have the opportunity to visit the Wang family's mansion again.
Thinking about the half year of living with the Wang family, especially Zhao Huaiqing, which ended up with such a sad ending, even though he was mentally prepared, Jin Chu still inevitably felt a strong sense of loss.
With mixed feelings, Jin Chu returned to his home, but did not notice several suspicious figures hanging far behind him.
When they got home, Jinchu told Huanyan directly about the Jingchuan Marquis Mansion and reminded her: "Unless it is necessary in the future, we can just stay at home and live our own lives!"
Huanyan nodded sensibly and comforted Jinchu: "Don't worry, sister. No matter who comes or goes, I will follow you wholeheartedly and obey your orders, even if it means climbing a mountain of swords or jumping into a pot of oil. I will not hesitate."
With a puff of laughter, Jin Chu smiled: "Sister, am I that bad that I would push you to climb a mountain of swords and plunge you into a cauldron of oil?"
She reached out and tapped Huanyan's head, knowing that the girl was trying to make her feel better. It did comfort her a little, knowing that there was still a girl who cared about her wholeheartedly.
She was about to open her mouth to say a few more words when she heard a knock on the door.
The two looked at each other and changed the subject. Huanyan got up and went out to open the door. When she came back, she had a letter in her hand.
"Sister, a child outside the door brought it to me." After saying that, he handed the letter to Jin Chu.
Jin Chu saw the familiar font on it at a glance. Needless to say, it was sent from the North.
Jin Chu nodded at Huanyan and turned to go into his room.
This time the letter was longer. Su Cheng'an patiently recounted how he arranged for his own people in the Northwest Army to contact Sheng Xuan, and after several conversations, he finally spoke frankly, causing Sheng Xuan to admit that his true identity was Ye Jinxuan, the third son of the former Wu'an Marquis Ye Shengpei.
At this time, the people from Dingbei Palace took out the handwritten letter from Jinchu to his third brother, and further elaborated on the cooperative relationship between Jinchu and the prince of Dingbei. Seeing that his sister had already submitted to the Northern Territory, Ye Jinxuan's last bit of worry disappeared, and he immediately swore allegiance to Dingbei Palace, and only asked the people of Dingbei Palace to protect his sister and younger brother in the future.
Seeing that the third brother always put the lives of his siblings first, Jin Chu was moved but also worried.
In order to restore the good reputation of the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion, the third brother has really put his own life and death aside. Now that he knows that his most concerned brothers and sisters are safe, he will probably be even more fearless and charge forward!
Fortunately, Su Cheng'an assured her that since he had Ye Jinxuan's help, he would not let him lose his life easily. So he placed two people with good kung fu skills around Ye Jinxuan so that they could protect Ye Jinxuan's life first in case of an accident.
Jin Chu finally let go of the worry he had been carrying.
To Jin Chu's surprise, Su Cheng'an, contrary to his usual behavior, did not mention much about Zhao Huaiqing, the prince of Jingchuan Marquisate.
But he mentioned a more important matter. One of the people who pushed for the downfall of Wu'an Marquis Mansion was actually the current Jingchuan Marquis Zhao Wenyan.
This also means that Marquis Jingchuan is also one of Marquis Wu'an's enemies!
Jin Chu was shocked and couldn't help but feel lucky that he didn't have too many entanglements with Zhao Huaiqing. Otherwise, if the bloody drama of the victim's daughter and the son of his father's murderer really fell in love with each other, it would be really ridiculous.
At this point, Jin Chu's last bit of reluctance to part with Zhao Huaiqing disappeared into thin air.
From now on, we really need to keep the roads to our roads and the bridges to their respective owners!
Thinking of this, Jin Chu picked up his pen and began to write a letter.
Su Cheng'an, who was far away in the northern border, was also calculating the girl in the capital's reaction after receiving the letter.
In his letter, he only said that he persuaded Ye Jinxuan to return to the northern border, but he was embarrassed to give the specific reasons for persuasion.
He also sent a letter to Ye Jinxuan, in which he wrote about the several times he and his sister had rescued each other, and how he eventually fell deeply in love with his sister and was determined to marry her.
This also made Ye Jinxuan, who was already tempted, fall directly and decisively to the northern border.
The girl must be happy and delighted that her brother could return to the Northern Territory, but she might not be in a good mood towards Zhao Huaiqing, the current prince of Jingchuan Marquisate!
No matter what her mood was, the current Prince of Dingbei, Su Cheng'an, was in a visibly good mood.
As a favored child of heaven, Su Cheng'an rarely feels the feeling of wanting something but not getting it. Unfortunately, when it comes to the girl Ye Jinchu, he shamelessly sticks to her, but is still treated lukewarmly by the girl.
Now that man's identity is revealed. Not only did he win the top three places in the imperial examination, he is also the eldest son of the Jingchuan Marquisate. Such an outstanding person also likes the girl he likes.
Su Cheng'an was in a complicated mood, not knowing whether he should be proud of his vision or worried about his feelings.
Although he had rarely come into contact with Zhao Huaiqing, he could feel the hidden threat from him.
That person is so outstanding and has always been by Jin Chu's side. Even though he is always proud of himself, he can't help but worry that he will get the moon first because he is close to the water.
Now, this person turned out to be the son of the enemy of the Wu'an Marquis Mansion. When Su Cheng'an got this news, he shamefully relaxed.
He knew very well how tough and proud Jin Chu was. The four words "son of the enemy" completely cut off any possibility between Jin Chu and Zhao Huaiqing.
Even if Zhao Huaiqing was the man Jin Chu loved, she would decisively withdraw her feelings. What's more, Zhao Huaiqing had never entered Jin Chu's heart, so naturally it was impossible for him to have the opportunity to get close to the girl he was thinking about.
How could Su Cheng'an not be happy when he eliminated his most threatening love rival without any effort?
While he was feeling happy, Su Cheng'an suddenly thought of what happened after Zhao Huaiqing moved out, as mentioned in Jin Chu's letter, and he couldn't help but become worried again.
Before, he hated the fact that Zhao Huaiqing and Jin Chu lived under the same roof, but now that they had moved out, he was worried about the safety of Jin Chu and the other two.
Thinking of this, he waved and called Qingying.
Qingying came in response.
"How long has it been since the letter from the capital was sent?" Su Cheng'an asked with a frown.
"If it's fast, it should be delivered to Miss Jin in three or two days." Qingying calculated and replied.
The prince suddenly called me over, probably because he had something else to tell me.
Sure enough, Su Cheng'an lowered his head in silence for a moment, then ordered again: "Send two capable brothers to the capital as fast as possible, and then..."
Qingying nodded as he listened, then went downstairs to make arrangements.
