Chapter 101 Men's Damn Competitive Spirit
Su He didn't expect Zhao Yunzheng to be cold to her, and she didn't expect him to question her words in such a distant and indifferent tone.
Upon meeting Zhao Yunzheng's icy gaze, Su He's breath hitched, and she subconsciously released her grip on Zhao Yunzheng's sleeve.
She suddenly looked at Xu Jiaojiao, her brow twitching almost imperceptibly.
It seems Xie Peining was right; this woman truly holds a high position in Yunzheng's heart.
She has always been frail, and the imperial physician said she might not be able to have children. If she wants to secure her position after marrying into the Prince Chen's mansion, she can only rely on Brother Yunzheng's love for her and the kindness he showed her back then. Therefore, Xu Jiaojiao must not be allowed to live!
We absolutely cannot let any other woman leave a mark on Brother Yunzheng's heart!
I must never let other women threaten me!
At this moment, Su He, who had previously disregarded Xu Jiaojiao, decided to kill her.
She wants to make Xu Jiaojiao disappear completely!
The atmosphere was tense, and Xu Jiaojiao sighed softly, feeling a bit of a headache.
Since she was going to escape anyway, she decided to be a good person one last time and take the initiative to defuse the stalemate, so that the three who were at odds with each other would not fight on the spot.
The emperor is still in the main camp not far away. If things get out of hand, she might also be implicated.
The overall situation is paramount!
The bigger picture is paramount!
Thinking of this, she looked up at Prince Jin and obediently bowed: "I am flattered by Your Highness's favor. I hope Your Highness will not find me too uncouth."
As she spoke, she looked reassuringly at Jia Rong, who was standing to the side in shock and bewilderment, shook her head silently, and then carried the wine pot toward Zhao Minghuai.
Seeing the helplessness and disappointment in her eyes, Jia Rong felt a sudden pang of heartache.
Jiaojiao was heartbroken by her second brother's attitude towards Su He.
Even though Sister Jiaojiao was already so upset, she still had to appease Lao Wu in order to help her out of the predicament.
Su He deserves to die!
Why is this sickly child out here harming people instead of staying at home?
Zhao Yunzheng, sitting in the main seat, was startled and his hand tightened suddenly.
What is Xu Jiaojiao doing?!
In that instant, Zhao Yunzheng blurted out from the bottom of his heart: "When did I ever say that I don't like drinking wine? Since this wine was offered to me, how can it be offered to someone else?"
Xu Jiaojiao paused, giving Zhao Yunzheng a strange look.
Before Prince Jin appeared, Prince Chen didn't utter a word, but now that Prince Jin wants him, he's unhappy.
Tsk…
Men's damn competitive spirit!
She refused to be cannon fodder in their power struggle!
Before she could speak, the princess said casually, "The prince already has Miss Su by his side. Why not do him a favor and give this wine to Prince Jin?"
Zhao Minghuai smiled deeply: "Yes, second brother, you already have a beauty by your side, why are you so greedy that you want to snatch this one away too?"
After a pause, he exclaimed as if suddenly realizing something, "Could it be that Second Brother wants to emulate Emperor Yao, possessing two beauties and enjoying the bliss of having two wives?"
Jia Rong snorted coldly: "Not everyone is as dissolute as you, with a harem of wives and concubines! This wine was originally intended for Second Brother before Su He arrived. He can do with it as he pleases. What right do you have to steal it from him!"
"Ah..." Su He trembled with fear and hid in Zhao Yunzheng's arms: "It's my bad timing, it's all my fault..."
Jia Rong, who was about to win back Jiao Jiao, asked, "?"
She looked at Su He with a puzzled expression, almost blurting out, "Are you sick in the head?"
Su He ignored Jia Rong's gaze and continued, "It's just a pot of wine. Since Brother Yun Zheng and His Highness Prince Jin both like it, why not offer this pot to Brother Yun Zheng and have the maid go back to the tent to fetch another pot to offer to His Highness Prince Jin?"
The princess immediately nodded in agreement, saying, "In this way, it's a win-win situation, so that both the prince and Prince Jin can drink wine."
Jia Rong was so angry that his vision went black.
Is this about alcohol?
Zhao Yunzheng's gaze grew increasingly gloomy: "Since it's a wine offering, how can the person leave after offering the wine? This maid should naturally stay by my side to serve me and pour wine for me at any time!"
"Hey!" Zhao Minghuai was about to continue speaking when he heard a loud "bang!"
The atmosphere was tense, and the piercing sound immediately drew everyone's attention.
"ah……"
Xu Jiaojiao, who was holding the wine pot, exclaimed in surprise and knelt down in a panic: "This servant accidentally dropped the wine pot, this servant deserves to die!"
She kowtowed to Jia Rong: "This servant is guilty of breaking this precious wine. Please punish me, Your Highness!"
The arguing crowd: "..."
Jia Rong's lips twitched, and he almost laughed.
good good!
good good good good!
It has to be Sister Jiao Jiao!
Although kneeling on the ground, appearing obedient and humble, one cannot hide one's rebellious nature.
She practically had "Nobody can control me" written all over her face.
Although Jia Rong was confused, he wasn't stupid, and he immediately understood what Xu Jiaojiao was doing.
She feigned a fit of anger: "What kind of servant are you! Do you know how precious this wine is! You stupid wretch! Get back to your tent and kneel down!"
Xu Jiaojiao immediately nodded: "This servant obeys!"
After saying that, she immediately got up and ran back to the tent in a flash. Her back view showed her running faster than a rabbit, and she even seemed a little excited.
Why not just make them kneel right here as punishment?
Do I still need to go back to the tent and kneel?
Are you afraid that others will see that Xu Jiaojiao didn't kneel?
Jia Rong and Xu Jiaojiao's acting was so fake!
Su He saw this and was so angry that her pale cheeks turned a little red.
This place is not far from the main camp. If Prince Chen and his sister fight with Prince Jin because of Xu Jiaojiao, it will surely alarm the Emperor!
Given the Emperor's temperament, he would never allow such a troublemaker to cause internal strife to live!
Damn it, Xu Jiaojiao actually managed to escape!
"Tsk..."
With the fun people gone, Zhao Minghuai felt bored, so he beckoned to the servant who roasted mutton, ordering a plate of roasted mutton to be brought over, which he then devoured with great relish.
Zhao Yunzheng's forehead twitched; he felt that everything that had happened tonight was completely inexplicable.
It's really disgusting!
Seeing how much the fifth brother was enjoying his food, Jia Rong's expression turned grim.
All the good plans were ruined.
So annoying!
It's so annoying!
Staring at the fifth brother, Jia Rong grew angrier the more he thought about it, and bared his teeth fiercely: "Eat, eat, eat! Be careful you don't wake up with a pig's head tomorrow morning!"
Zhao Minghuai paused, his hand holding the meat still, and exclaimed angrily, "Hiss, Xiao Jiarong, why can't you even play games anymore?"
Even so, Zhao Minghuai eventually put down his chopsticks.
Lamb is considered a "hot" food, and eating too much of it is indeed bad for the wound. His face had finally reduced the swelling by more than half, and the autumn hunt officially begins tomorrow; his face must not swell up again.
He came here to annoy the second brother and sister. Since he has already achieved his goal, it would be a real loss if his face were to swell up again because of this!
Jia Rong pouted, not wanting to talk to Lao Wu anymore.
Zhao Yunzheng was even more decisive; he simply got up and left, leaving everyone behind…
