She accidentally flirted with the villain and was fiercely criticized as the regent for forcibly mar

July 14th.

As the crescent moon neared its fullness, countless stars cast their gentle, cool light, illuminating the world.

The cool evening breeze gave Jiang Ruining a feeling of returning to her childhood, where she could clearly see the road and her surroundings by the moonlight alone, without needing to carry a lantern.

The master and his servants strolled leisurely, enjoying a rare moment of tranquility.

Occasionally, you might encounter a frog, hopping along.

Xiao Che raised his foot to avoid it, but in the blink of an eye he saw Jiang Ruining suddenly become playful, holding her hands behind her back and racing with the frog. Every time the frog hopped, she hopped too.

If the frog jumps too high, she'll accuse it of cheating.

She jumped far away, mocking the frog for not being as good at jumping as a human.

Anyway, she's the best.

His childishness made him chuckle.

But if you think about it, she's only fifteen years old. Isn't she just a child who hasn't given up her playful side?

"I took a bath for nothing."

Jiang Ruining said, "Because you've already taken a shower, you can't do that. Because people will give you strange looks, you can't do that. If everything can be a reason to restrain yourself, how boring would life be!"

"If I get dirty, I can wash again! If I'm happy, I'll have fun! What do I care what others think of me? We're in the countryside, far from our neighbors and relatives, just to catch our breath. If we don't let loose now, when will we ever get the chance?"

She grabbed the frog by its hind legs and threw it into his arms unexpectedly.

Xiao Che sidestepped.

Shi'an, who was following behind, didn't have time to dodge and was pounced on by the frog, which covered his face.

Shi'an carried the frog, looking very melancholy.

Who would have thought that he, a master, would be attacked by a frog!

Jiang Ruining ran up to Xiao Che and deliberately rubbed her fingers, which had been holding the frog, against him, giggling.

Xiao Che's brow furrowed; he really wanted to throw her out too!

Jiang Ruining grinned and tugged at his collar.

In his other hand, he had somehow grabbed a frog and stuffed it into his clothes with a "whoosh." Then he took off running, a series of clear and mischievous laughs carried by the wind, swirling in the air.

then.

Yun Mi and her expressionless guards watched as the Regent, with his noble and elegant gait, took off after her, like a cat playing with a mouse. He was about to catch up when she cried out in panic, then deliberately let her slip away, only to chase after her again...

He thoroughly enjoyed the tedious chasing game.

Seeing her master having so much fun, Yunmi, who was carrying the little frog, immediately tried to join in. Suddenly, she was grabbed by the back of the neck: "What are you doing? Are you going to throw the frog at the Regent, or smear mud on his face?"

Yun Mi blinked her big, innocent eyes and shrank back, "N-no, I wouldn't dare..."

Shi An put her down: "Then aren't you just asking for a beating by going over there? If you really want to play..." He beckoned two burly guards, "Let them play with you!"

Yunmi wanted to refuse.

Who wants to play with a big guy!

But when she saw the two big dogs they were walking, she immediately stopped in her tracks, screamed, and rushed over, burying her face in the dogs' long fur and sucking on them: "Ahhh! So cute!"

Shi An picked at his ear.

I suspect that Jiang Ruining is protecting whom by bringing along such a clumsy girl!

She turned her head and looked at her own grandfather.

He grabbed the girl, punched and kicked her, then pretended to be in pain and "threw" her away.

Then, a new round of pursuit began.

He didn't quite understand what was so fun about this...?

One can only sigh silently at how twisted the power of love is, capable of turning a gloomy master into a mentally challenged man. Tsk!

"Why isn't the Prince in a hurry to write up the betrothal gift list?"

After a moment's thought, Jiu Jing said, "Perhaps, I've already planned it out in my mind!"

Shi'an nodded: "That's something the Prince would do!"

I don't know how long I played.

Finally, Jiang Ruining ran out of strength and wanted Yun Mi to carry her on her back.

It turned out that the girl was almost crawling from being walked by the two dogs.

He simply squatted down and clung to Xiao Che's leg, pleading, "Carry me! I can't walk anymore!"

For the first time, Xiao Che felt admiration for him.

Even if you're not afraid of him, he's now learned to take advantage of you!

"Go by yourself."

Jiang Ruining clung to his leg and swayed back and forth, whimpering, "Please! Kind man~"

Kind person?

Xiao Che was speechless. Did he look like a kind person?

Jiang Ruining looked up, her small face, pale and delicate in the moonlight, her eyes sparkling like starlight, dazzlingly beautiful: "Xiao Che~ Xiao Che~ Xiao Che~"

She kept whimpering and wailing.

Like a scoundrel.

Xiao Che's way of dealing with scoundrels is simple: slit their throats. But this trick obviously doesn't work on this little scoundrel!

He took a deep breath, sighed forcefully, and resignedly squatted down: "Shut up, get on top!"

Jiang Ruining jumped up and climbed onto his back without ceremony: "Giddy up!"

Xiao Che's forehead.

That scoundrel, he rode him like a horse!

He lifted her up forcefully.

I thought she would be scared.

To everyone's surprise, her reaction was unexpected – she cheered excitedly!

"Whoa! Throw it higher!"

Xiao Che: "..." I'm impressed! This little rascal's brain circuits are different from normal people!

……

The next morning.

Shi An arrived at Wenying Residence carrying a stack of invitations: "The owners of the surrounding estates know that the Prince is staying here for a while, so they all sent over invitations. Miss, please see which one you'd like to visit, or perhaps you'd like to visit them all, that's fine too."

Jiang Ruining flipped through the invitations, noting whose they were and when: "He's too busy, how could he have time to take me to visit each and every house!"

No time?

Shi An felt that as long as the girl asked the prince to accompany her, unless something earth-shattering had happened, the prince would definitely put aside everything he was doing to accompany her, and then stubbornly say, "Anyway, I'm free."

"If Your Highness is unavailable, His Highness Xinyang can take you along."

Jiang Ruining thought about it and agreed!

She still has this powerful backer to rely on!

I chose the one with the most recent date.

I've been bored for too long, I'm going to join in the fun!

"Let's have the incense appreciation event at Minister Wen's house! He's also one of the Prince's men. If the Prince can attend, the Wen family will also feel honored."

Shi An grinned.

Take a look!

They're not even married yet, and they're already making plans for me!

What a good homemaker!

"Yes, young lady, you have thought this through very well!"

Before we knew it, it was time for the Wen family's incense appreciation party.

Jiang Ruining wore a strapless dress in a green glass color, paired with an apricot-colored pleated skirt. The skirt hem was also embroidered with green glass-colored branches. She wore a semi-transparent, soft, light green gauze over the dress.

She wore her hair in a delicate, updo styled in a flying fairy bun, adorned with small, willow-leaf-shaped tassels carved from jade. The tassels were crisp and shimmered gently in the sunlight, their swirling light and shadow creating a refreshing and warm effect that made her appear exceptionally fresh without overshadowing her bright colors.

In order not to frighten the other guests when they appeared, a veil was put on before entering the manor.

The materials used for the veil were also extremely particular.

The veil is light and breathable, and when the light shines on it, it will have a soft pearly shimmer, which can make the fair skin look as warm and bright as a pearl. Several weighty gemstones are embellished at the bottom of the veil to keep out the wind.

Finally, she added a small mole to the corner of her right eye, which added a touch of charm and made her instantly recognizable to acquaintances!

We left Wenying Residence.

Xiao Che also happened to come out from next door.

Jiang Ruining, holding the veil but not yet putting it on, twirled in front of him: "How is it? Does it look good?"
