Chapter 222 He Likes This Reward
Mu Jiaojiao seemed to have sensed something and glanced casually at the place where Shan Xue left, with an ambiguous look in her eyes.
It seems that there are many people who are thinking about her man.
Tsk!
*
In a blink of an eye, it has been three days since Mu Jiaojiao moved into Prince Jin's Mansion. During these three days, Mu Jiaojiao settled the things she brought with her and the people around her, and the entire Prince Jin's Mansion seemed to have returned to peace.
However, Yudu was in turmoil. From taverns and teahouses to beggars on the streets, everyone was spreading the story that the current Princess of Jin, Mu Jiaojiao, was of humble origin, an orphan from a farming family. She had no female virtues and deliberately seduced Prince Jin. Not only did she have a child with her, but she also brought shame to his reputation.
Prince Jin's Mansion
"Your Highness, Princess, I've already found out who in Tingyuxuan in the mansion first spread these obscene words."
Mu Jiaojiao lazily sat on the couch in front of the carved window, playing chess with Jiang Jin. The two of them felt the gentle spring breeze and listened to Yunyu beside her telling her everything about the recent turmoil in Yudu because of her.
When Jiang Jin heard this, his hand holding the white piece paused, his heart skipped a beat, and his expression tightened.
"Oh? So she's the prince's confidante?"
Before Jiang Jin could explain, he heard Mu Jiaojiao's tone rise and a bit of nonchalantness.
When Jiang Jin heard this, he saw that his wife even called him "Prince". He didn't care about the prince's face and spoke up in front of Yunyu and the other maids.
"My wife, I have nothing to do with her. In my eyes, she is just a doctor. My wife, you have to make the decision for me!"
The tone changed from nervousness at the beginning to grievance at the end, which was so pitiful that Mu Jiaojiao's forehead throbbed when she heard it. Who was being slandered?
Jiang Jin still had the nerve to let her make the decision, acting as if he was the real victim. He didn't even think about the fact that she, Mu Jiaojiao, was the one who was really implicated!
When the maids around saw this, they couldn't help but cover the corners of their mouths with their handkerchiefs, for fear that their smile would be too obvious and be remembered by their own prince.
"Hmph~ Stop talking nonsense. Forget it this time. If something like this happens again next time, you can sleep in the study."
Mu Jiaojiao looked at his pitiful look and did not pursue the matter any further. The main reason was that when the housekeeper had told her about the general situation in the mansion, Jiang Jin had explained to her privately that Shan Xue was a doctor, and keeping her in the mansion would help him pretend to be sick to deceive others.
Moreover, Mu Jiaojiao had just arrived in Yudu and did not want to be too high-profile or reveal that she had medical skills, so it was a good idea to keep Shan Xue to cover her.
Besides, Shan Xue was, after all, the disciple of her father He Zhouyun. Even though Mu Jiaojiao knew that Shan Xue might have some feelings for her man, she didn't make things too difficult for Shan Xue.
Who would have thought that human greed is like a snake swallowing an elephant? Dan Xue is so tactless.
"My lady, Jin, how dare there be a next time."
Jiang Jin looked aggrieved when he heard this, but he did not forget to immediately promise his wife.
The couch in the study is cold and hard. When I didn’t have a wife, it didn’t matter. After all, I had slept on trees and grass piles during marches and battles.
But now I have a sweet and soft wife. With the fragrance of a beauty in the bedroom, who would want to sleep in the study? Whoever wants to sleep in the study is a fool!
Anyway, he is the great Prince Jin, and he has nothing to do with fools.
"Hmmmm~"
Mu Jiaojiao glanced at her husband. She knew that her man was trying to please her.
"Your Highness, Princess, I have also found out that three days ago, Miss Shan and Prince Ping Jiangyu stayed in the private room of Cuixian Residence for almost half an hour."
Seeing that the atmosphere between her two masters had calmed down, Yunyu continued to talk about the subsequent findings.
"Oh? Prince Ping?"
Mu Jiaojiao paused while playing chess, then placed the chess piece on the board and asked a question in a lazy tone.
"Your Majesty, doesn't Fairy Dan Xue admire you? Why is she involved with Prince Heping again?"
Mu Jiaojiao thought, what kind of fairy is this? This Dan Xue is really good at flattering herself, giving herself such a title.
"Ahem... How can my wife talk nonsense? She is not in love with me, she is just in love with my identity as Prince Jin."
Prince Jin pretended to cough and then spoke seriously.
Shan Xue might have some affection for him, but he believed that most of it was because of his status as a prince.
"Speaking of the prince's identity, Prince Ping is not impossible. Dan Xue is not picky."
After hearing this, Mu Jiaojiao stopped making things difficult for Jiang Jin, mainly because she felt that her man was still a bit pitiful.
Look, isn't it that if someone around him wants to pursue him, doesn't he have to weigh the pros and cons?
"However, seeing that she spread rumors about the princess after contacting her, it seems that she is..."
When Yunyu said this, she glanced at her princess, and seeing that her princess looked normal, she continued:
"You still have unrealistic ideas about the prince."
Mu Jiaojiao's expression did not change after hearing this. She also knew that her husband had good looks, a good figure, and power. In front of outsiders, except for being a cripple, he was impeccable.
So it is understandable that some women admire her, which indirectly highlights that Mu Jiaojiao has good taste!
But Jiang Jin was not so wonderful. When Mu Jiaojiao couldn't see him, he gave Yunyu a sinister look.
Then he glanced at his wife uncomfortably, and found that Mu Jiaojiao looked fine, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he thought about how his wife didn't seem jealous at all, and his expression turned sour again.
snort!
He knew that his wife didn't care about him at all!
It took him half a year to come back and forth before he finally brought his child to Yudu. Now he is indifferent even when he hears that a woman loves him.
Mu Jiaojiao watched Jiang Jin's little movements, then saw that her husband's face was not very good, so she gave an order to Yunyu.
"Don't alarm her first. Keep a close eye on the person and go down first!"
"Yes."
After the servants had left and carefully closed the door, Mu Jiaojiao looked at Jiang Jin with a smile and asked with interest:
"What's going on? Why, I'm not even angry yet, but you're already vomiting?"
Jiang Jin became even more unhappy when he heard this, and his eyes were full of grievance.
"My wife hasn't even shown any jealousy, it seems like she doesn't care about me either!"
After saying this, he put on a pitiful look. He knew that his wife would only respond to soft words and would not tolerate such a pitiful look of weakness on his part.
It has to be said that Jiang Jin really understood his wife. Seeing him like this, Mu Jiaojiao restrained her previous teasing a little.
"It's not that I'm not jealous, I just think my Ah Jin is too proud of me and doesn't like that fairy Shan Xue."
"My lady, you have no shame."
"But, my lady is right. Jin doesn't like Shan Xue. He only likes Miss Jiaojiao."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jin stopped playing the victim. Instead, he raised the corners of his mouth and spoke softly to Mu Jiaojiao, his eyes full of tenderness.
"Haha...husband~you are really getting better and better at talking."
"Reward you!"
After Mu Jiaojiao finished speaking, she hooked her finger at Jiang Jin, motioning him to move closer.
"What reward did my wife give me?"
Jiang Jin cooperated while looking at his wife and asked curiously.
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a softness on his cheek. It was his wife's lips that he had felt countless times. Then, a smile gradually bloomed on his warm face.
He likes this reward...
