The real daughter's life was stolen, and she was reborn and became the best in the capital

Zhou Shuangyue and Ming Sheng were also drunk.

Ming Jin had them sent to the guest room to rest.

Something happened after Ming Jingtingze.

Besides, he is older after all. It would have been fine if he had Yuan Yu accompany him, but now, Yuan Yu had gone to the guest room to rest early, and there were many women from other families in the room. Although he was Ming Jin's brother, how could he stay in the same room with so many unmarried women?

So after finishing lunch, he said goodbye to Mingjin first.

Now, only Ming Jin and Xu Zhaojun were left in the room, and Zhou Que, who remained silent and just drank tea with his head down.

Xu Zhaojun is smart.

It can be seen that Ming Jin and Zhou Que have a close relationship, and he specially invited Zhou Que here today, probably because he has something to say.

At this time, he said to Ming Jin: "I'm going to go see Yuan Yu."

After all, Yuan Yu is her fiancé.

Now that she is drunk, it is reasonable for her to go and visit.

Mingjin knew how careful she was.

She must have realized that she and Zhou Que had something to say, so she did that.

She nodded to Xu Zhaojun, and told Hua Sui to take her there.

Watched Xu Zhaojun leave.

Mingjin said to Yingge who was still in the room: "You go out first too."

Brother Ying didn't ask any more questions.

Without even taking a second look, he just walked out.

When only she and Zhou Que were left in the room.

Seeing that Zhou Que was finally willing to put down the teacup in his hand, Ming Jin asked him directly: "Did you run into Mr. Meng?"

Zhou just hummed softly.

He was used to being quiet, but he felt uncomfortable at this moment, so he said to Ming Jin again: "I met him last month, and I have had contact with him several times in private."

When he said this, he suddenly looked at Ming Jin: "The chess games you gave me are very good, and he is very interested in them."

"He has accepted me as his student."

"I will report to the Imperial College in a while."

This is a good thing.

Although he had already expected that with Zhou Que's character and ability, as long as he was given a chance, he would definitely seize it and rise to the top.

But when Ming Jin heard that he really recognized Meng Changjing as his teacher, he was still very happy.

Happy for him.

She smiled and said, “That’s a good thing.”

"With Mr. Meng protecting you in the future, I believe that neither your elder brother nor your stepmother will be able to do anything to you."

However, Zhou noticed that she had been depressed for a long time since Prince Chang'an left.

At this moment, she finally smiled again, and it was for him, so he couldn't help but feel happy.

After all, he is still just a teenager.

He is only fifteen years old this year.

No matter how hard I try to hide it, I can't hide the joy in my heart.

"Thank you for that."

He looked at Mingjin and thanked her sincerely.

He never thought that he could take this path.

He had been making a living under Feng and Zhou Xun since he was a child and had long been accustomed to forbearance, but he never expected that one day someone would directly give him a bright future.

From now on.

He also has someone to protect him.

No more hiding like pigs, dogs and animals.

The most important thing is that he can finally pursue a career in politics openly and no longer have to hide anything for the sake of Feng and Zhou Xun.

The gratitude in my heart towards Mingjin is like a volcano that has not yet erupted but is already burning hot.

He didn't know how to thank her, but luckily they had already made a deal.

He could always repay it.

He also knew what happened in her home.

Although the Anyuan Marquis Mansion concealed the truth of the matter, Feng and Zhou Zhaoru had always been at odds. Now that she knew something had happened at the Anyuan Marquis Mansion, how could she not investigate it?

After all, the two families are related by marriage.

Zhou Zhaoru was accompanied by maids and servants who had come from the Qingyuan Marquis's mansion. After careful inquiry and further thought, he had a general understanding of the matter.

He used to see her act calmly and boldly, and thought she should be living a good life.

Unexpectedly, she also suffered a lot of injustice at home.

However, Zhou never expected that someone like him would one day feel pity for others.

"I can't do anything about it now, but in the future, I will get back at those who bullied you bit by bit."

"Ok?"

It was rare for him to talk so much, but Mingjin didn't quite understand what he said.

It was not until I saw his silent and calm face that I realized belatedly that he probably already knew what had happened in the Marquis' Mansion.

Mingjin suddenly thought of his previous life.

The sight of him escorting those people from the Ming family and kneeling in front of her bed.

He actually did what he said.

but--

"No, just do your job first."

"As for the grudge between me and them..." Ming Jin was silent for a moment before he said calmly, "It's all settled. There's no need to bother with it anymore."

Zhou Que frowned when he heard this.

He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he saw Ming Jin's cold profile, he finally pursed his lips.

The room fell silent again for a moment.

Mingjin asked him, "Are you going back with Shuangyue, or are you going back first?"

Zhou looked at her and said, "I still have to go to the teacher."

He has been staying at the Meng family for some time and hasn't even gone to the academy.

Zhou Xun and Feng thought he was a bad student and never paid any attention to him, which made things easier for him.

Ming Jin nodded, but didn't say anything else. He just said, "Second brother is also in the Imperial College. If you need anything, go to him and he will help you."

Zhou nodded, but he had no such plan in mind.

He was not used to owing favors.

He already owed her enough, and he didn't want to owe anyone else anymore.

"If you have any other difficulties, come to the Princess's Mansion to find me."

After hearing this, Zhou fell silent again. He did not refuse immediately, nor did he nod directly like before.

"What's wrong?" Ming Jin asked him.

"fine."

Zhou withdrew his gaze.

After a while, he looked at Ming Jin again and nodded seriously: "Got it, if I need anything, I will come to you."

"Thank you."

Mingjin smiled and said no need.

Seeing that Zhou had nothing to say, he asked Yingge to send him out.

Zhou didn't say anything else.

He said goodbye to Mingjin and walked out.

When he walked outside, he glanced into the house and saw Ming Jin was still sitting in his original position, holding a brocade box in his hand.

Everyone who came today brought gifts.

He also sent it.

And what she was holding in her hand at this moment should have been given by the King of Chang'an.

Not knowing what the King of Chang'an had given her, she looked somewhat surprised and dazed.

Zhou stopped unconsciously.

Until I caught a glimpse of the maid in black beside me out of the corner of my eye, and her eyes looking at me.

Zhou Que just came to his senses.

He withdrew his gaze, gathered his attention, and walked out.

Ming Jin was indeed in a trance.

She didn't expect Gu Mingheng to give her this.

——A hidden arrow.

When Xu Zhaojun came back, Ming Jin was still holding the sleeve arrow in a daze.

"The third young master of the Zhou family has returned?"

Xu Zhaojun's voice reached Mingjin's ears, and she came back to her senses.

"Ah."

When I spoke, I realized that my voice had become a little hoarse without me noticing.

Ming Jin coughed lightly, and then found his original voice: "Let's go."

"looking at what?"

Xu Zhaojun came over and saw the brocade box in Mingjin's hand. She was a little surprised: "Is this... a sleeve arrow?"

She asked Ming Jin: "Did the prince give it to you?"

"Ah."

Mingjin answered.

She didn't expect Gu Mingheng to give her this. She didn't know where he got it from, or if he just gave it to her casually.

But it's undeniable.

The gift he gave her once again touched her heart.

She loves it.

Xu Zhaojun sat next to Ming Jin.

"A few days ago, Yuan Yu asked me that the prince wanted to ask you what you like." Seeing the woman beside him turned her head to look at her in surprise, Xu Zhaojun smiled at her, "I thought about it for a long time, but couldn't think of it. I remember that you were riding horses and shooting arrows with Brother Ying recently, so I said this casually."

"I didn't expect the prince would give this."

Most women might not like such things, but she knew that Ajin would definitely like them.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been holding it in her hands until now, unwilling to let it go.

"I see……"

Ming Jin's eyes fell on the brocade box and he murmured.

Xu Zhaojun looked at her.

Thinking of the strangeness in his heart before, he couldn't help but look at Mingjin and said, "The prince treats you very well."

Ming Jin hummed softly: "He has always been very good to me."

Whether it is the previous life or this life.

If it weren't for him.

How could she have the status and confidence she has now? She left just like that.

"He treats me so well." Ming Jin suddenly said with regret.

This makes her want to go far away but can't bear to do so; she wants to go near but dares not.

Her appearance made Xu Zhaojun's heart skip a beat.

"Ajin, you..." She looked at Mingjin and spoke.

Mingjin suddenly closed his eyes.

Her hands were still on the brocade box.

The sunlight from the window shone on her. She tilted her head slightly, and there were shadows of the leaves on her face.

She knew what Xu Zhaojun was thinking.

And she actually admitted: "Yes, I probably fell in love with him."
