Chapter 290 Sincerity
Ji Chenxing’s brain froze for a moment.

Putting these two sentences together, does Lu Yuzhou want her to go to Beiliang to be the queen?
But it doesn’t matter. Rather than saying that the emperor and the empress are husband and wife, it would be better to say that they are colleagues.

The two people, one for the former dynasty and the other for the harem, made the world peaceful.

Thinking of the harem, Ji Chenxing’s brain froze again. Wait, she was not interested in taking care of Lu Yuzhou’s harem affairs!

Compared to the traditional relationship between emperor and empress, she actually prefers to manage the world together with Lu Yuzhou.

Ji Chenxing didn’t respond for a long time, and then Lu Yuzhou sent another message.

“Well, actually in the memory of another life, he wanted you to be the queen, but unfortunately he didn’t wait for you.”

Lu Yuzhou was probably on his way, and this message was a voice message. Accompanied by the sound of horse hooves, his voice was very clear and firm, with a completely different sense of youth from the modern Lu Yuzhou.

Just as Ji Chenxing finished listening, another voice message from Lu Yuzhou came.

“Of course, if I had to choose, I would choose you too.”

Lu Yuzhou said it lightly.

What he didn’t say was that Lu Yuzhou, who died young, spent half his life missing Ji Chenxing.

He also thought about making himself strong enough and then giving his most valuable position to Ji Chenxing.

Afraid that Ji Chenxing would find the crowd too annoying, he could also promise Ji Chenxing to only marry her in his life.

The young Lu Yuzhou had been working hard until he heard the news of Ji Chenxing’s death, and his health suddenly collapsed.

In the huge palace, there was no warm place for him; among so many people in the world, the last person who protected him had passed away.

Lu Yuzhou’s modern soul has been together for so long, but this obsession has not faded.

Be it the patriarch of the Lu family who is not interested in women, or the cold and ruthless Emperor of Beiliang, Ji Chenxing’s name is always written in the deepest and softest corner of their hearts.

Ji Chenxing didn’t know about Lu Yuzhou’s affairs, she just felt her heart beating faster.

Unlike a few months ago when she married Jun Jingrui ignorantly, now she can make her own choice.

As she gained more experience, she had a clearer understanding of the people around her, made more accurate judgments on things, and would no longer be easily deceived.

Her analysis told her that Lu Yuzhou’s seemingly casual words were actually spoken from the heart.

Being with this man, he would not let her suffer the same injustice as before.

But Ji Chenxing was not in a hurry to be with him. She needed to give herself more time to get to know Lu Yuzhou better and see if he was suitable for her.

However, the Queen’s matter can still be agreed to first.

After all, Daliang now still belongs to the Jun family. It seems a bit unfair for her to usurp the throne directly. It would be better for her to develop in Beiliang first.

When the time is right, they may be able to avoid the bloody history of modern times and painlessly enter another stage of society.

Of course, this will take a long time to develop. Although a person’s life is long, it will eventually come to an end, which may not be something that Ji Chenxing’s generation can do.

“For now, I have no objection to going to Beiliang.” Ji Chenxing replied to Lu Yuzhou, “You can use this incident to warn Jun Heng that I can’t always contribute to his Daliang. If I don’t take care of his useless son, I will leave Daliang.”

Lu Yuzhou was still on his way, and after the two of them exchanged a few simple greetings, they didn’t talk any more.

While Ji Chenxing was chatting with Lu Yuzhou, Ji Zunxing had already discussed the betrothal gifts with Jun Jingrui and had someone deliver them to Ji Zunxing’s shabby house.

Jun Jingrui’s betrothal gifts were so huge that the servants carrying the huge red box formed a long queue that spanned several streets, attracting every household to come out to watch.

Jun Jingrui originally didn’t want to give so much, but Ji Zunxing said, “The princess’s status is not ordinary. If you give too little betrothal gift, the princess will definitely not agree to your marriage.” Although he knew that Ji Zunxing wanted to be greedy, generally speaking, what Ji Zunxing said was not wrong.

Ji Chenxing’s status is noble, so the more betrothal gifts she gives, the more worthy of her status she will be.

What Jun Jingrui fears most now is that his second brother Jun Jingxing is secretly befriending Ji Chenxing and plotting something behind the scenes.

If Ji Chenxing decides to be with Jun Jingxing, Jun Heng will definitely pass the throne to Jun Jingxing.

Jun Jingrui would not allow this to happen.

Isn’t it just a matter of paying a little more betrothal gift? He can afford it!

And she had to let everyone in the capital know about it, so as to show her love for Ji Chenxing.

Thinking of this, Jun Jingrui gritted his teeth and gave Ji Zunxing a lot more things.

At the front of the procession of betrothal gifts was a eunuch from the palace. Every time Jun Jingrui’s betrothal gifts were carried in, the eunuch would sing a song.

“Two gilded silver incense balls with flying lian patterns, one hundred and eight oriental pearls, a blood amber necklace inlaid with gems, two filigree gold phoenix hairpins, a peacock gold mud dress, twelve rolls of black and red silk, ten Shu brocade quilts in ten colors, and a silver gilded candlestick with the word “囍” on it…”

The eunuch’s voice echoed in the streets and alleys. Many people were attracted by the voice and followed the gift-giving team to find Ji Zunxing’s doorstep.

The huge red box and the rare treasures placed in Ji Zunxing’s dilapidated yard looked very out of place.

Everyone who came here to watch was pointing and talking about Ji Zunxing, discussing what Ji Zunxing was going to do by accepting so much betrothal gifts from the prince, who he was going to marry, was it the princess or Ji Xueyao who was going to get married?
If it was the princess, there had been no news of her getting married for such a long time; if it was Ji Xueyao, this woman was still in jail and was not worth so much betrothal gifts.

It couldn’t be that old man Ji Zunxing wanted to marry himself…

The suspicious looks from the people around him did not affect Ji Zunxing’s mood. Instead, he straightened his back under these looks, feeling very proud.

Not everyone can receive so much betrothal gift.

It seemed that even when the emperor and empress got married, there were not so many betrothal gifts carried into the empress’s mother’s family.

He, Ji Zunxing, is the leader of the group.

Things were carried in one by one, and Ji Zunxing’s small, shabby house soon could not hold them all.

In order to have space to put more things, Ji Zunxing even spent a lot of money to buy his neighbor’s yard.

It took half an afternoon to move Jun Jingrui’s betrothal gifts to Ji Zunxing’s yard.

When the afterglow of the setting sun shone into Ji Zunxing’s small courtyard, the boxes of betrothal gifts were already stacked higher than a person.

The western sunlight cast long shadows on these staggered boxes. The red-orange light and the gray-orange shadow surfaces were close together, looking spectacular.

Ji Zunxing felt that he could give most of it to Ji Chenxing, and keep the other half for himself.

As Ji Chenxing is her daughter, she has countless gold, silver and treasures in her name, and she will definitely not be angry with her about such a thing.

The more Ji Zunxing looked at it, the more impressed he felt. Ordinary people might never see these good things in their lifetime. It seemed that he really raised a good daughter.

Just as Ji Zunxing was admiring the betrothal gifts, the sound of horse hooves passed through the city gate of Daliang capital.

The young Lu Yuzhou had an extremely determined expression on his face as he rode his horse through the streets of the capital city of Daliang.

There was a small accident on the way, but fortunately, he still arrived in the capital before the end of the day.

As Lu Yuzhou’s horse passed by, the sun gradually set, and the darkness covered Ji Zunxing’s wealth like a veil.

On this moonlit night, Ji Zunxing didn’t know that many greedy eyes were hidden in the darkness around him.
