Chapter 284 My cousin is very selfish
"This is also a good idea I came up with for my cousin. If he doesn't want to marry, he will have to sacrifice his reputation. I'm sure the envoys won't be willing to welcome back a man with a ruined reputation, right?"
"You~"
Ji Ruxue's face suddenly turned pale, she looked at Ji Yunxie, tears rolling down her moist eyes, and said in a trembling voice.
"Do you have to do this?"
"How can you be so cruel? I'm your cousin. How can you say such a thing?"
"You want to ruin my reputation, you want to...ruin me!"
Ji Yunxie's crow-like eyelashes drooped slightly, and his pale hands tightened: "No, I'm saving you. You asked me to help you."
Ji Ruxue cried, "I want King Beichen to marry me!"
"As long as the King of Beichen asks, the Queen Mother will definitely agree. As long as I become the King of Beichen's person, the Queen Mother will not force me to marry."
Ji Yunxie's face darkened slightly, and he clenched his fair hands tightly: "The prince will not agree."
He believed in A Yue's character.
She would never agree to such a thing.
Don't ask him why, he just has that intuition.
Although I think so, there may be a trace of fear and uncertainty deep down in my heart.
But at this moment, I just don’t want to admit that A Yue would be that kind of person.
and……
Ji Yunxie raised his eyes and looked directly at Ji Ruxue, anger flashing in his eyes: "Since His Majesty has already pointed out that my cousin should marry, you are now asking the prince to marry you as his concubine. My cousin's request is so ridiculous, do you know that this is a blatant disobedience?"
"If the prince really goes to the palace to ask for a marriage, and this angers His Majesty, and His Majesty is furious and blames the prince, what do you think His Majesty will do to the prince?"
Ji Ruxue shook her head, her face pale: "No...No~"
"The Queen Mother has great respect for Prince Beichen. Moreover, Prince Beichen is the adopted daughter of the Queen Mother. How could the Queen Mother do anything to her?"
It was because she knew this relationship that she dared to ask King Beichen for help.
The Queen Mother respected her, if she asked not to let her marry, the Queen Mother would surely accept it. If she was not confident about this, how could she dare to ask for it?
"Heh~"
Ji Yunxie narrowed his eyes slightly and sneered, "People say that the third prince of the dynasty is both virtuous and talented, and has a kind heart like a bodhisattva, but I think my cousin is very selfish."
"My cousin keeps saying that he likes my prince, but he wants her to risk her life and death by asking for your permission. He gets what he wants without having to marry into a foreign alliance, and he can marry into the prince's palace as he wished. What a good plan."
"I wonder what the prince would do if he knew that you were scheming against her like this?"
Ji Ruxue’s face turned pale, she panicked and kept shaking her head.
"No, that's not the case."
"I really like Queen Beichen, I don't want to hurt her!"
"Cousin, trust me."
Ji Ruxue wanted to explain eagerly, but Ji Yunxie was annoyed and didn't want to listen to his excuses anymore.
"You don't need to explain. No matter what you say, I won't agree to what you ask for."
Ji Yunxie stared at Ji Ruxue with calm and indifferent eyes: "Give up."
Ji Ruxue smiled bitterly: Give up?
How could I give up?
He doesn't want to give up even if there is a little hope.
Ji Yunxie called Thirteen and pushed him away.
Although Thirteen was waiting outside, she could still hear the conversation inside with her sensitive ears. While she was surprised, she also knew that this was not something she should pay attention to.
As a guard sent by the master to protect the king, he should put the king's safety first.
Looking at Ji Yunxie's departing back, Ji Ruxue felt as if all her strength was drained out and fell to the ground.
The blood drained from her pale face, and tears welled up in her beautiful eyes: "Why?"
"Why don't you help me?"
