Transmigrating into a book, seducing him to rise to power

Su Jingyao stared at him without moving, her eyes clear and innocent, like a clear spring.

"Brother Zechen, what are you doing here?"

Su Jingyao slightly opened her mouth.

She then relaxed and walked in, clasped her hands together, bowed to him, and sat down to one side.

Jun Zechen waved his hand, his movements both domineering and gentle, and pulled the person onto his lap again.

"Why are you here at the banquet?"

His thin lips were pressed tightly together, and his eyes showed displeasure.

Jun Zechen remembered that in his previous life, Yao Yao almost never attended these kinds of banquets.

Could this woman have regained her memory but is deliberately lying to him, and even wants to leave him to be with another man?

Jun Zechen stared intently at her, his eyes filled with suspicion.

"It was my mother who asked me to come. It's all because Brother Zechen sent too many gifts that my mother wanted me to get to know the other young masters and ladies."

Su Jingyao twisted the hem of her clothes with her small hands, looking somewhat aggrieved.

She's very adept at turning the tables and blaming others.

"I brought you a gift, so why does Madam Su want you to get to know other men?"

Jun Zechen's expression was rather unpleasant.

Shouldn't Mrs. Su be overjoyed by this?

He is powerful, handsome, and loves Yao Yao so much. What could Madam Su possibly be dissatisfied with?

"I was afraid that Brother Zechen would deceive me, so I already told you, I'm still young..."

Su Jingyao's voice grew softer and softer, like a wronged kitten, her eyelashes drooping to hide the emotions in her eyes, and she didn't dare to look at him.

Upon hearing her words, Jun Zechen suddenly realized what she meant.

Indeed, she was still a child, and in Madam Su's eyes, she had only met Yao Yao once.

Even though Yao Yao was born with exquisite beauty and was loved by everyone, it seemed extremely abnormal for a prince to have such feelings for a young girl.

"Madam Su has misunderstood me. I am very serious about Yao Yao."

Jun Zechen's expression softened, and he reached out to gently stroke her hair, his touch very tender.

Seeing that his expression was no longer so cold and that there was a hint of warmth in his eyes, Su Jingyao affectionately rested her head on his shoulder and wrapped her arms around his neck.

She said softly, "Yaoyao trusts Brother Zechen, and I really like all the gifts he gives me."

"Yes, as long as Yao Yao is obedient, I will send you anything Yao Yao likes."

Jun Zechen smiled, his eyes full of doting affection.

"Am I being disobedient?"

Su Jingyao raised her head, blinked her big eyes, and looked at her with a hint of doubt and dissatisfaction.

"From now on, refuse any invitations from Mrs. Su to these banquets, understand?"

Jun Zechen lifted her chin with one hand, his eyes domineering.

Why?

Su Jingyao wrinkled her nose, her little face scrunched up, clearly dissatisfied.

Why did those two men bring you here? Why did they stay by your side the whole time?

As a man, how could Jun Zechen not see the blatant looks in their eyes as they stared at her, clearly harboring lustful thoughts towards her?

A chill ran through Jun Zechen's eyes.

Moreover, wasn't that Si Nanyu the man who accompanied her to hang paper decorations during the Flower Festival?

"I only met Young Master Yan and Young Master Si today. I don't like them, so Brother Zechen, you don't need to worry about it," Su Jingyao comforted him.

"I don't like men getting close to you."

Jun Zechen held her in his arms, his chin gently resting on the top of her head, with a strong sense of possessiveness.

In a few days, he will set off for the border region.

I had just managed to find some free time today, and I was so excited to see her before I left, but I won't be able to see her for quite some time afterward.

Unexpectedly, she came to the outskirts of Beijing to attend a banquet hosted by Miss Ye.

Jun Zechen naturally understood the purpose of these banquets held by the aristocratic families: to allow the young men and women of various aristocratic families in the capital to get to know each other and prepare for future marriage alliances.

Every year, Jun Zechen receives many such invitations, but he has no interest in them and rejects them all without hesitation.

He wouldn't have attended these kinds of banquets before, and now that she's with him, he's even less likely to.

He was hers, and she was his, so naturally he didn't want her to attend this kind of banquet, giving other men a chance to get close to her.

"But if Mother wants me to participate, I won't refuse. I don't want to make Mother sad."

Jun Zechen's expression hardened.

Su Jingyao quickly continued, "But I won't get close to any other men besides Brother Zechen."

She wrapped her arms around his waist, her voice sweet and soft, and snuggled against him like a kitten.

Now that she has memories of her past life, she certainly doesn't want to repeat the path she's already walked.

It's a good thing to make some friends and expand your social circle in this lifetime.

Because of her experiences in modern times, she has always lacked love and security in her past life.

She only believed in herself and tried her best to firmly control her own destiny.

But in her past life, she was pampered by Jun Zechen throughout her life. It is undeniable that Jun Zechen's deep and steadfast love was like the warm sun in winter, making her truly feel warm.

It was because of his love that she realized she could truly trust someone and entrust the rest of her life to him, instead of fighting alone on the battlefield of life.

She had never believed in love before, but when she was surrounded by his unwavering love, Su Jingyao felt that her life had been fulfilled.

Perhaps people who grow up in a loving environment really do become kind.

In her past life, Su Jingyao thought she was selfish and cold-hearted, a completely bad person.

In this life, she wants to try to be a good person.

Jun Zechen frowned upon hearing her words, clearly dissatisfied with the answer.

But looking at her adorable appearance, I really couldn't bear to force her.

"I will be leaving the capital in three days."

"Where is Brother Zechen going?"

Su Jingyao was somewhat surprised.

Although she knew he would be going to lead troops beyond the Great Wall soon, this time it seemed to be earlier than in her previous life.

"Go beyond the Great Wall and lead troops to attack the barbarian tribes."

Jun Zechen exudes an innate kingly aura.

Su Jingyao, who had been leaning against him, suddenly stood up.

Her beautiful eyes instantly filled with worry, and her small hands unconsciously gripped his sleeve tightly.

"But war is very dangerous."

Jun Zechen stretched out his slender fingers and gently stroked her cheek, his eyes filled with tenderness and affection.

His Yao Yao was truly innocent and adorable when she was little. In this life, he will never let her experience the cold treatment she suffered in the Eastern Palace again, nor will he let her suffer the slightest harm.

"Yaoyao believes in me, and I will return victorious, because I am waiting for Yaoyao to grow up and marry her."

Only by seizing military power, only by holding power in one's own hands, can one protect those one wants to protect and do whatever one desires.

Su Jingyao nodded gently.

Jun Zechen has memories of his past life, so even if he goes to war, he should be fine. Su Jingyao wasn't too worried about that.

As for Ling Yue...

Su Jingyao believed that Jun Zechen would not give Ling Yue a good look; in fact, Jun Zechen would not give any woman other than her a good look.

Moreover, during the time Jun Zechen was away from the capital, no one would be watching over her all the time, which would be a good opportunity to make some friends. Su Jingyao had never had any friends, whether in her modern life or her previous life.

This time, she wanted to try something different.

The carriage traveled smoothly from the outskirts of the capital to the Su residence. Su Jingyao nestled in Jun Zechen's arms and soon fell into a deep sleep.

Jun Zechen looked down at her peaceful sleeping face, her eyelashes curled, her breathing steady, and her pink lips slightly pouting.

I feel that time is peaceful and beautiful, and life is serene.

As they approached the Su residence, Jun Zechen looked at her sweet sleeping face and felt a surge of emotion.

He slowly lowered his head, wanting to kiss her before waking her up.

However, just before he touched her lips, he hesitated for a moment, and in the end, the gentle kiss only landed on her smooth forehead.

She's still a child; we should wait.

Then, Jun Zechen reached out and poked her little cheek with his finger, and said softly, "We've arrived at the Su residence."

Su Jingyao was awakened by his movements, and slowly opened her hazy eyes, still with a trace of sleepiness in them.

Realizing they had arrived home, she prepared to get off Jun Zechen.

"Goodbye, Brother Zechen."

Her voice was soft and languid, as if she had just woken up, like she had a piece of sweet candy in her mouth.

Jun Zechen did not loosen his grip on her waist.

"While I'm gone, you are not allowed to let any man get close to you, understand?"

Perhaps because my appearance changed Yao Yao's original life trajectory, Yao Yao is now attending banquets in aristocratic families even before she comes of age.

At the banquet, she would definitely meet many men. In addition, she was still young and naive. Jun Zechen was really worried that she might accidentally develop feelings for another man.

What should he do if that really happens?

"I promised Brother Zechen, and I won't break my promise."

Su Jingyao raised her head, her little face full of seriousness.

She even raised a small hand, made a "swear" gesture, and solemnly said, "I swear."

"If I return and find Yao Yao with another man, I will have her tied up and taken to the Crown Prince's residence, understand?"

Jun Zechen's tone carried an undeniable threat.

"Okay, Brother Zechen, do you know how long-winded you are?"

Su Jingyao wrinkled her nose and made a face at him.

After saying that, taking advantage of his momentary daze, she nimbly broke free from him, then lifted her skirt and quickly got off the carriage like a cheerful little bird.

Jun Zechen was speechless for a moment after hearing her words, and he couldn't go out to pull her back, since he couldn't let too many people know about his relationship with her yet.

He could only grit his teeth in anger.

Is he long-winded?!

This was the first time anyone had dared to describe him like that. Everyone in the capital knew that the Crown Prince of Jun was taciturn, cold-hearted, and aloof. This little ungrateful girl was truly ungrateful for her good fortune.

When he returns from beyond the Great Wall, he will keep her by his side every day and never let her out of his sight for a moment.
