Long Live the Empress

Chapter 228 Rong Cheng Charm

on carriage

Su Hongfu thought about Kong Linan's silly look and laughed out loud, causing Yue Jinghao and Manju to look at her.

"Miss, Mr. Kong is such a nerd. He knows nothing about court affairs. Can such a person really hope to pass the imperial examination?"

"Now he is just naive and lacks experience. In less than two years, he will definitely gain a foothold in the court!" Yue Jinghao thought about Kong Linan's thundering methods in her previous life while looking at Su Hongfu, "I think he is a good match for you..."

Su Hongfu was drinking tea, and when she heard Yue Jing's words, she spat out the tea in her mouth. "Miss... please don't tell such shocking things, okay? With his stupid look... eh..."

Su Hongfu shuddered as she spoke, causing the usually calm Yue Jing to burst out laughing. "What? You still don't like him?"

"Hey! My lady!" Su Hongfu came close to Yue Jinghao and whispered, "Mr. Kong already has a crush on someone. I'm afraid he is just waiting for the Spring Examination to be over, so he can ride on a tall horse to the girl's house to propose marriage..."

Yue Jinghao was slightly stunned. How could she not see that Kong Linan had a crush on someone? Yue Jinghao looked at the agate on the other side...

"agate……"

Yue Jinghao just spoke when Manju hurriedly interrupted, "This servant and Master Kong haven't even spoken to each other... Miss, please don't make random guesses."

Yue Jinghao saw that Manju also looked like an outsider, so she withdrew her thoughts.

Su Hongfu mourned for Kong Linan in her heart for a moment. Her daughter was extremely smart, but she had no idea about the relationship between men and women. She would suffer from Master Kong in the future...

"Miss, where are you going?" asked Old Ding outside the carriage.

"Let's go to Yuningxiang." Yue Jinghao hadn't been to the spice shop for a while, so today was a good opportunity to take a look.

In the carriage, Manju and Su Hongfu chattered endlessly about which maid and which servant in the mansion were a couple, and which old woman treated her daughter-in-law badly...

Yue Jing couldn't help but sigh after hearing this. They say three women make a play, but she thinks two women are enough...

Today, Yu Ningxiang is the most famous spice shop in the capital. Many dignitaries are proud to use Yu Ningxiang's spices, not for anything else, but for the reputation of Jiu Qiansui and Prince Rong.

When Yue Jinghao walked in, there happened to be two young ladies from aristocratic families surrounding Rong Cheng and chattering.

"Prince Rong, do you think this perfume is suitable for my daughter?" the woman said as she leaned towards Rong Cheng.

Just as Rong Cheng was about to dodge, another woman pulled Rong Cheng towards her, "Humph, how shameless, leaning against a man in broad daylight, I really don't know what your father taught you..."

"..."

The two women started to quarrel over Rong Cheng, but Rong Cheng said, "How about this! Whoever buys the most, I will choose the fragrance for her! What do you two ladies think?"

When the two women heard this, they immediately ordered their maids to take the spices from the cabinet. They didn't care how much silver it cost or what the incense smelled like. They just had to grab them!

Yue Jinghao and the other two couldn't help but be surprised when they saw the scene in the store. They thought that this shop was probably not selling spices but male beauty.

Taking advantage of this time, Rong Cheng was able to talk to Yue Jinghao: "Why are you free to come here today?"

"Why didn't Prince Dongyan go to the banquet that day?" Yue Jinghao found Rong Cheng's romantic look somewhat cute.

"You know..." Rong Cheng was interrupted by a woman halfway through his words, "Prince, I have made my choice!"

"I've made my choice too!" another woman shouted, not wanting to be left behind.

"Boss, settle the bill for the two young ladies! Whoever buys the most, bring her upstairs, and I'll taste the fragrance with her!" Rong Cheng placed great emphasis on the word "with her", and the meaning behind it was obvious.

Sure enough, as soon as Rong Cheng finished speaking, the two women rushed to take the spices they had snatched and asked the shopkeeper to settle the bill.

"Miss Yue, let's talk upstairs!" Rong Cheng made a gesture of invitation, but saw Yue Jinghao glanced at the two women with eyes full of meaning. Rong Cheng immediately smiled, "Don't worry! After all the calculations, it will probably be dark!"

After listening to Rong Cheng's words, Yue Jing said no more and followed Rong Cheng upstairs.
