Roujia came to the pavilion under the guidance of her servants, and looked at the people in the pavilion shyly: "Brother Jingyu."
Mo Jingyu raised his eyelids and glanced at her lazily, with a very indifferent expression: "Why is the princess here?"
Roujia sat down opposite him and said in a soft voice: "As soon as we left the palace, Roujia never saw brother Jingyu again."
Mo Jingyu frowned: "Why do you want to see this king?"
He was distant and indifferent. When Rou Jia saw his attitude, her face turned pale and her eyes were filled with disappointment.
Three years ago, King Qi's proposal to marry Princess Roujia caused a stir throughout the city.
At that time, King Qi was already violent and cruel. Although he had great military exploits, for Roujia, marrying such a person was like jumping into a pit of fire.
Therefore, when she heard that King Qi was meeting the emperor, she hurriedly wanted to run to stop him. Unexpectedly, she did not see the emperor, but instead saw Mo Jingyu who was facing the emperor from a distance.
Roujia will always remember that day.
The sun in early summer leaned against the palace wall, casting the majestic hall in a hazy halo. On the white jade steps, the man was dressed in a dark prince's uniform, like a wolf trapped in a cage.
The darkness surrounding him was incompatible with the warm light, but there was a strange unruliness surrounding him, a kind of thrilling danger.
He lowered his eyelashes slightly, tapped the armrest of the wheelchair with his long fingers, and the scattered anger slowly subsided.
I don't know what the person pushing the wheelchair whispered to him, and he smiled suddenly.
The corners of his mouth curved into a slight arc, and the coldness accumulated between his eyebrows was immediately dispelled, just like a gleam of light emerging from the horizon at the dawn of a cold and clean dawn.
That smile was fleeting, but it caused ripples in Roujia's heart.
She watched Mo Jingyu's figure disappearing outside the palace gate with almost obsession, completely forgetting to stop the marriage, thinking that King Qi was not as scary as the rumors, and it seemed that getting married was not a problem.
It's a pity that the marriage didn't come to an end.
Roujia secretly regretted it and even asked the emperor secretly for the reason. The answer she got was that she was still young and King Qi was not a good match.
To this day, no one has mentioned this matter anymore, but Roujia can never forget that look.
She occasionally came to Prince Qi's Mansion, but Mo Jingyu was always cold to her.
Roujia felt sad, but she would cheer up again soon, and it was the same this time.
She smiled and said: "Last time in the palace, you had a leg problem and couldn't sleep. When you came back, you didn't let the imperial doctor take a look. I was worried, so I came to take a look. Does it still hurt?"
Mo Jingyu said: "I'm sorry for you, Princess. It's okay."
Roujia felt bitter in her heart, but she still smiled and said, "It's okay. Brother Jingyu, I made some snacks. You can use some with me, okay?"
Mo Jingyu's face was stern: "I don't want to eat snacks."
Roujia's smile froze, and then she said: "Then let's go out. I heard that there is a river lantern show in Lingxi Lake. I have already sent someone to reserve a seat at the restaurant by the lake."
Mo Jingyu was unmoved: "I have an appointment."
This is not a refusal, after all, Chu Qingwan will come to give him acupuncture soon.
But even without Chu Qingwan, Mo Jingyu would not accept any invitation from Roujia. He had no intention of her. What happened three years ago was just a matter of retreat.
But Roujia didn't understand the deeper meaning. She pursed her lips, feeling very sad.
In her opinion, Mo Jingyu's words were purely an excuse, because he had always been polite to her, even if the marriage proposal had really happened.
Roujia sometimes couldn't understand why he was in this situation now when he wanted to marry her so vigorously three years ago.
She didn't understand, so she could only tell herself that haste makes waste, and take your time.
As a princess, she will not wrong King Qi. With what happened back then, she has a better chance of winning than others. Given time, Mo Jingyu will marry her!
