Chapter 302: When did they get married?
Zhou Lang panicked upon hearing this and hurriedly held Luo Lin's hand, then looked at Zhao Jinghua for help.
Zhao Jinghua chuckled and then turned to look at Zhao Jingcheng who was approaching from afar. "Why did your highness leave the palace?" As he finished speaking, a hint of imperceptible guilt flashed in his eyes.
Zhao Jingcheng set his eyes on Luo Lin, then smiled shyly, "I was thinking that I would no longer be the crown prince tomorrow, so I came to discuss with Prime Minister Wan, Uncle Wan, whether I can propose to Miss Luo."
As soon as these words came out, everyone except Zhao Jinghua and Wan Sutong was stunned.
Zhou Lang felt like crying after hearing this. Luo Lin also came back to her senses. She held Zhou Lang's hand and patted the back of his hand. After a moment, she stood up and knelt down to Zhao Jingcheng. "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. But I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. Zhou Lang and I have been married for a long time, and we are husband and wife."
Zhao Jingcheng's pupils suddenly shrank and he took a step back in disbelief. "When did you get married?"
Without giving it much thought, Rowling immediately gave the answer, "Your Highness, August 27th."
Zhou Lang was afraid that Zhao Jinghua would be in a dilemma, so he pretended to be angry and said, "My wife, you remembered it wrongly. It was August 25th! You returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion on that day. You see, I told you that your family is more important than me in your heart."
But Zhao Jingcheng obviously didn't believe it at this time. He lowered his head and kept repeating August 28th. After a long time, he raised his head and looked at Zhao Jinghua with surprise in his eyes. "So you intended to stop it at the beginning?"
Zhao Jinghua frowned slightly but nodded without speaking. Seeing this, Zhao Jingcheng stepped forward and held Zhao Jinghua's arm. When he spoke, his tone was extremely excited as if he was suppressing great anger. "Why did you help him? How could you help outsiders? Yes! He was your former personal bodyguard! But I am your half-brother! And your great-grandson in name!"
Zhao Jinghua's brows were furrowed more and more at this time, but he still patiently persuaded, "Jingcheng, they have been in love with each other for three years. Do you want to break them up? And she..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Jingcheng sneered and interrupted, "You are going to say that she is just a maid again, right?" At this point, Zhao Jingcheng's voice suddenly rose, "I understand! You like the emperor's sister-in-law because she is the daughter of the right prime minister? If she, Wan Sutong, was not the daughter of the right prime minister, you would not even look at her, no matter in the past or now, right?"
Zhao Jinghua's face suddenly froze when he heard this, and he waved his sleeve to shake off Zhao Jingcheng's hand. He lowered his head slightly and looked at Zhao Jingcheng as if he was looking at a dead person. When he spoke, his tone was cold and unquestionable, "Don't make trouble! She is over thirty years old and six years older than you!"
Zhao Jingcheng raised his neck fearlessly to confront Zhao Jinghua, "You are more than a hundred years older than the emperor's sister-in-law! Besides, your body is nine years younger than the emperor's sister-in-law's!"
Zhao Jinghua's face turned blue with anger after hearing this. 0533 burst out laughing when she saw this, "Hahahahahaha, you've hit your husband right in the lungs with just one sentence, hahahaha"
Unexpectedly, Wan Sutong didn't laugh after hearing this. Instead, she looked at 0533 angrily, then raised her hand and hit it hard on the head, "What are you laughing at!"
Zhao Jinghua closed his eyes and gasped, trying to calm down his emotions, then he took Zhao Jingcheng's arm and led him away. "Come with me. Tonight, I will have a good chat with you and tell you why I helped him." After that, he looked at Wan Sutong with an apologetic look in his eyes, and at the same time sent her a message, "Take your father-in-law and the others to Qiyue Pavilion. I'll wait for you by the formation." Then the two of them gradually disappeared into the night.
Wan Sutong sighed heavily and then rolled his eyes at 0533, "What's so funny!"
Rowling then said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I said the wrong thing."
Wan Sutong waved her hand generously, "It's okay. Since my husband has chosen to help you, he must have a reason to convince Zhao Jingcheng. It's okay." After saying that, she held her father's arm and hooked her finger at Feng Ming, "Let's go, let's go and encircle and suppress the Jiao family! Let's get rid of the harm to the people!"
At this time, in a remote corner of the Prime Minister's Mansion
Zhao Jinghua sighed and spoke in a very serious tone, "First, Su Tong and I are not husband and wife. It's just that I respect and love her and won't force her to do anything she doesn't like." Zhao Jingcheng was about to speak when Zhao Jinghua raised his hand to stop him, "Second, although she and I love each other very much, if it weren't for the fact that she had an engagement with Zhao Sinian, she and I would not get married. Even if she loves me, it's not because I don't want to, but because I can't. I can't let this ruin her future. Do you understand what I mean?"
Zhao Jingcheng sighed heavily after hearing this. "Yes, I understand, but what does this have to do with me and Rowling?"
Zhao Jinghua sneered and then turned his back to Zhao Jingcheng and said helplessly, "Why not? Have you considered Luo Lin's feelings? She and Zhou Lang have been in love for three years, but you want to separate them with a marriage certificate?"
At this point, Zhao Jingcheng looked at Zhao Jinghua in surprise, "At this point, you are still thinking about outsiders!"
Zhao Jinghua frowned and held his shoulder tightly with his left hand. At the same time, he lowered his voice to a very low level with anger hidden in his tone, "Please listen to me first! Yes! You like her, but she is six years older than you. You have never been out of Kyoto and you are young and ignorant. But have you ever thought that when you have seen the beautiful rivers and mountains, are no longer young, and your mind is stable, you will meet the person you like again and she can only be a concubine. Will you regret marrying her as your wife? She is also a maid. It has been a rule since ancient times that a woman cannot be divorced unless she has no children. But she has three sons and one daughter in her life! If you have a concubine, she will definitely complain to your offspring about her past! You are unbearable! How do you want your children to see you as a father! Do you think I, Zhao Hongyu, am a good person? Will I be kind enough to help an outsider? You are just impulsive. Have you thought about the future!"
Zhao Jingcheng suddenly understood what was going on after hearing this. "I understand, but if she is no longer a maid, then there will be some trouble, right? What if I help her restore her country?"
Zhao Jinghua raised his eyebrows after hearing this, but instead of being angry, he smiled. "The difference between you two is not because of your status, but because of your experience! You can go out of Kyoto and walk around the border town. There are thousands of women in the world. Why do you have to be obsessed with her?"
At the same time, three hundred secret guards stood in front of the Qiyue Pavilion. Wan Sutong and a group of people were standing behind Zhao Jinghua. On her left was Wu Yisa and on her right was Feng Ming.
"Brother, why did you come to Yuwen Country? Did Jinghua bring you here?"
Wu Yisa shook his head and said proudly, "No, I came here disguised as a merchant the day before yesterday. It was very exciting and scary along the way. It took me half a month to get here."
Feng Ming exclaimed in disbelief, "Who will govern the country after you leave?"
