My Wife is a Psychic Novel - Chapter 95

Chapter 95: Can We Get Married Normally?

The empress waved her hand to dismiss the palace maids. She went forward to tidy up the emperor’s clothes. “If Your Majesty really wants to reward General Zhao Ruifeng, it’s better to let General Zhao get married quickly. He just needs a wife who knows him well. Every time the Zhao family’s head lady comes to the palace, she tells me about General Zhao’s marriage. The emperor might as well fulfill her wish and then give General Zhao an explanation.” The empress’s fingers were slender, and her carefully manicured nails were crystal clear.

The emperor nodded, very satisfied with the empress’s suggestion. “It’s just that the status of the little girl that I’ve given to General Zhao is a little low. When she enters Jing City in the future, I’ll give them something else. It’s rare for General Zhao to meet someone who hasn’t been killed by him.”

With a few words, the emperor brought forward the marriage between Zhao Ruifeng and Jiang Xi. After tidying up his clothes, he went to court. The empress pursed her lips and smiled faintly. Her smile was slightly cold. It was strange. She had found so many marriages for Zhao Ruifeng before, but none of them had succeeded. Jiang Xi, that girl, was also a little strange. She hung herself three times and still did not die. Could it be that these two people were really destined for heaven? The empress would have killed Jiang Xi long ago if she had not been afraid of Jiang Xi hurting her and causing a rift between the crown prince and her.

“Even a pheasant wants to become a phoenix. Why doesn’t she take a look at her own worth?” The empress’ expression was dark as she heavily put down her teacup. The palace maids behind her paled in fear and did not dare to make a sound.

“Send some of the jade jewelry that the emperor gave her a few days ago to Zhao family’s Miss Zhao Panpan. Also, invite her into the palace to accompany me.” When the empress thought of Zhao Panpan, a smile appeared on her face. A few years ago, Xiao Meili had not yet gained a firm foothold in the Zhao family, so the crown prince’s wife had to be someone else. It was a pity, but as long as Zhao Panpan could marry the crown prince, even if she became the crown prince’s secondary wife, it could still work in the future.

“Take the two-hundred-year-old ginsengs and let Miss Zhao Panpan recuperate. The winter is cold, so don’t hurt her body,” the empress said indifferently. The palace maid responded in a low voice and slowly retreated.

Everyone in Jing City knew that Zhao Panpan was very well-liked by the empress and was fated to marry the crown prince since they were young. If the crown prince’s consort had not been decided, the position of crown prince’s consort would have been in her pocket. After this selection, Zhao Panpan would definitely enter the Eastern Palace and become the crown prince’s secondary consort.

Seeing the rewards from the palace flow like water into the Zhao family’s gates, outsiders could only sigh in admiration. To be able to make the empress dote on her to the point of not caring about the face of the crown prince’s main consort, Zhao Panpan really had a good life!

On the other side, Zhao Ruifeng, who was working hard to provide disaster relief, was dumbfounded. Was his luck going to change? It did not matter if other people misunderstood, but Zhao Ruifeng could feel that his luck was really showing signs of changing! When Zhao Ruifeng found out that his luck had become better, his first thought was that he did not need to break off the engagement anymore. He could get marry Jiang Xi normally.

In a short two months, the Happy Village had doubled in size. If the Happy Village used to be one of the biggest villages in the area, even the Happy Town was not as big as the Happy Village now. The new year was coming, but the Happy Village was not affected by the wind and snow at all. On the contrary, because the mountain was closed, and no one could enter or leave, they had to develop on their own.

One day, Zhao Ruifeng sent a master to deliver a letter, only then did everyone know the scene outside.

“My elder brother said that he would take Jiang Xi to Jing City after the new year and get engaged there first. He asked us to wait in the village with peace of mind. He will give Jiang Xi a decent dowry,” Zhao Yingying said. The Jiang family was poor, but fortunately, her big brother knew what to do and knew to prepare things for Jiang Xi in advance.

“Dowry?” Jiang Xi was stunned for a moment. Seeing this scene, Yang Fen’s face flickered and she stuttered, “Jiang Xi, you know about our family’s situation. Some time ago, some people have been proposing marriage to Jiang Si. Those girls all come from good families, so I have to prepare some things for Jiang Si. I’m afraid that our family can’t afford anything now. Since General Zhao Ruifeng has said so, let him prepare your dowry. I don’t think a person like him will treat you badly.

“A person like him? What kind of person is Zhao Ruifeng? Are you referring to the fact that he’s young and has military achievements, that he’s full of killing intent after climbing out of a pile of blood, or are you referring to the rumors outside that he’s unlucky and that he’s a jinx to everyone?” Jiang Xi grinned and said darkly.
