The female supporting role never believes in fate

"Meet the Fifth Prince!"

Li Kegui is the prince, as soon as he showed up, everyone immediately bowed to see him.

Wang Qin and Cao Shiyou also visited with their servants.

Obviously, it was not the first time for these two candidates from other places to meet the Fifth Prince himself.

"Miss Cheng, please get up."

Li Ke led Cheng Yulou to Cheng's stone shop, first asked Cheng Yuguan to stand up, and then took a step forward to support Wang Qin's elbow.

"Wang Juzi is Jieyuan from Jingzhou, the reborn Wenqu star, so don't be too polite."

Wang Qin stood up with a smile on his face, looking stable and dignified, but the servant behind him was thick and black, with a long nose, as if he was proud of his master.

Cao Shiyou was a local aristocratic family in Tongcheng, and no one cared about him when he left Tongcheng, so he kept a low profile, got up silently, stood aside with the long attendant behind him, and looked at the fifth prince and his party in awe.

"Wang Jieyuan, you said just now that you have a marriage contract with my elder sister. Is this true? After she returned to Beijing from Tongcheng, she didn't mention anything about the people and things in Tongcheng. Now the elder sister is bestowed by His Majesty as the fourth concubine, you I'm afraid this engagement is even more uncountable."

Cheng Yulou pretended to be puzzled loudly.

In front of the Royal Street, people came and went, Cheng Yulou kept talking about the marriage contract, opened his mouth and shut up to give the marriage, which attracted the attention of passers-by.

Seeing that something was wrong, the shop assistant wanted to close the door, but Cheng Yuguan raised his hand to stop him.

"Don't be bluffed by people with a few words, it's a serious crime of deceiving the emperor, let Miss Cheng Yulou make it clear in public, otherwise, no one will leave easily today!"

After Cheng Yuguan finished speaking sharply, he looked at the buddy beside him, "Go and invite Shuntian Mansion to come. They said that someone deceived the emperor, please ask Shuntian Mansion to investigate."

Following Cheng Yuguan's orders, the clerk was about to go out of the shop to invite the servants of the Shuntian Mansion not far from the street corner, but was stopped by the Fifth Prince's men.

"Miss Cheng, Yulou just asked a few questions out of curiosity. You don't have to make a fuss and instigate people to go to the government. You are all young ladies, and it's hard to say what to say when you go to court."

When facing Cheng Yuguan, the fifth prince always felt that he had nowhere to attack.

Appreciate it from a distance, but you can't talk a word if you get close to it.

The fifth prince Li Ke only felt this powerlessness in his fourth brother.

Facing the sideways confession of the fifth prince, Cheng Yuguan didn't appreciate it.

"Cheng Yulou is a noble lady of the Hou Mansion, so you can't always speak freely. If you say something, you have to be responsible for your own words. Can the fifth prince protect her for a while, or for a lifetime? Why don't you let the Shuntian Mansion come to an end this time?" , to see who is right and who is wrong. If I make a big fuss, after a while, I will naturally apologize to Miss Cheng Yulou in front of Shuntian Mansion. Of course, if Miss Cheng Yulou speaks without words, let her apologize to me in public! "

Hearing that Cheng Yuguan wanted to make a big fuss, Cheng Yulou couldn't help shrinking behind the fifth prince.

Cheng Yulou grew up with his mother since he was a child, and his words and deeds are ten to ten like Yang's.

As soon as she opened her mouth, she was full of twists and turns, enchanting, grabbing others, and setting off herself.

It's just that others don't care about it, but if she cares about it, she can't stand up at all.

Usually, Cheng Yuguan is too lazy to talk to each other, but this time it involves the crime of deceiving the emperor by giving a marriage. If Cheng Yuguan insists on pursuing it, Cheng Yulou can only admit his mistake and accept punishment, and make a fool of himself in public.

Seeing that Cheng Yuguan's face remained unchanged and his expression was resolute, Fifth Prince Li Ke had no choice but to hold back, and turned to look at Cheng Yulou, "Apologize to Miss Cheng. After all, you are sisters. If you apologize, she won't Compete with you again."

Cheng Yulou's eyes widened when he heard the words, and his eyes were full of grievances. Seeing that the fifth prince was unmoved, he kept quiet and endured the grievances, and came to Cheng Yuguan.

"Big sister, I was wrong. I shouldn't answer casually, it almost hurt my sister's reputation."

Cheng Yuguan glanced at the fifth prince when he heard the words.

The Fifth Prince was right, Cheng Yulou had given in, and if she persisted in reporting to the officials, she would not gain any benefits, and would only end up with a reputation of being aggressive.

Therefore, Cheng Yuguan waved his hand, "Miss Yulou will think about it next time when she speaks. Not everyone is your sister, so we must tolerate your unrestrained speech."

After finishing speaking, without looking at Cheng Yulou's face, Cheng Yuguan looked at Wang Qin and Cao Shiyou.

"It's not easy for you to study hard. Since you won the exam, you should prepare for the exam in the capital. When I left Tongcheng, I didn't go after you. I just gave my third brother Cheng Lang face. People still have to be ashamed, don't stab others After the knife, stick it up as if nothing had happened. This behavior will only make people look down on you."

Cheng Yuguan's words made Wang Qin's face pale and Cao Shiyou's face embarrassed.

The fifth prince Li Ke and Cheng Yulou were beside him, feeling a little lucky for some reason.

It turned out that she was still polite to herself and others.This venomous tongue is like a sharp knife that stabs people with one mouthful, peeling off people's skin without any relief.

Glancing at Wang Qin with a pale face, the fifth prince, Li Ke and Cheng Yulou, left leisurely again, as if the marriage contract Wang Qin mentioned just now happened to pass by, and it was just a coincidence and misunderstanding.

The fifth prince left, and Wang Qin couldn't get any cheap from Cheng Yuguan, so he left with his thin servant, Nong Mo, shaking his sleeves.

Cao Shiyou stayed for a while longer, and cupped his hands at Cheng Yuguan with a wry smile, "You are causing Miss Cheng trouble again. Next time I go back, I will study hard behind closed doors. Before the spring, I will never appear in front of Miss Cheng again."

After all, Cao Shiyou left with his long entourage.

Cheng Yuguan took Liuyun back to the backyard, and after a while, a guy came to report the news.

"Let him in."

In the backyard, Cheng Yuguan, who was doing accounts, heard the report from the front, so he asked people to come in.

Soon, a stranger came to Cheng Yuguan's side.

This person was promoted by Cheng Yuguan to follow him and do odd things that had nothing to do with the shop business——Cheng Li.

"Miss, I found out. When Wang Qin came to Beijing a few days ago, he went around to inquire about the Third Young Master and you. When he learned that you were married by His Majesty, he bragged about his old conversation with the Third Young Master after drinking."

Since Wang Qin's innocent mind was broken by Liu Zeming, he has gone farther and farther on the road of vanity, Cheng Yu sighed in concern.

How many teenagers can't stand the blow, and they will all take the fork in vanity.But if you are more cautious, after a few years, you will slowly regain your feet on the ground after you have learned more about the world.

But the capital is full of wealthy people, his mentality may become more perverted under the stimulation of the capital's splendor.

Cheng Yuguan's mind flashed the appearance of that innocent and laughing boy, and then he listened to Cheng Li's report.

"The fifth prince has always been well-known among literati. This time the fifth prince competed with the fourth prince for the position of deputy chief examiner, so he is very concerned about Jingzhong Juzi. After hearing about Wang Qin's tone, I brought him here specially to find your fault. Happy. But they obviously miscalculated."

When Cheng Li said this, he glanced at Cheng Yuguan.

My young lady has never been easy to mess with.I don't know where Cheng Yulou and Wang Qin got the illusion that the young lady is easy to bully, and dare to target the young lady again and again.

They don't think that all the powerful people are powerful in their mouths, right?
My lady led the people of the Cheng family village to open up the Cheng family's stone shop in just ten years. These people would not think that this is an easy task, would they?
People don't talk too much, they talk about their own young lady.

Thinking of the interception, bullying, targeting, and the fate of those old opponents encountered by the shop in the past few years, Cheng Li couldn't help lowering his eyes, and stood aside more respectfully.

When Cheng Yuguan heard Cheng Li's report, he tapped his hand on the table for a while before finally stopping, and then, a faint voice ordered.

"Go to the south of the city and find the most well-known man with dysentery in the south city, and ask him to bring someone to Chenghou's mansion with drums and gongs to propose marriage early in the morning, around the first quarter of Mao."

"Who are you proposing marriage to?"

Liu Yun stood by the young lady's side, but didn't react for a while, and quickly answered.

Cheng Yuguan glanced at Liuyun, his expression was calm, but his eyes were full of interest.

"Of course it's for my little sister Yulou. She called me big sister one by one. As a big sister, how can I not worry about my sister's marriage?"

Liu Yun was shocked and speechless.

So poisonous!
The reputation of the girl's family is as fragile as the first snow, and it cannot withstand the slightest toss, otherwise it will either melt or be polluted.

My young lady's behavior like this is really a slap in the face. Presumably with this warning, Cheng Yulou and others will not easily come here to provoke my young lady again.

Liu Yun couldn't help stretching out a thumb to praise his young lady.

Cheng Yuguan was also a member of the Cheng clan who was inquiring about information for Cheng Yuguan. He was naturally cautious, but his face was not pleasant, so Cheng Yuguan removed him from the shop and was responsible for collecting and inquiring about some information.

At this moment, when Cheng Li heard the plan of the young lady, he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.

The eldest lady is like this, if you don't move, you will be fine, if you move, you will hit seven inches, making people defenseless.

It is also such an efficient and ruthless method that allows Cheng's stone shop to expand and develop in a short period of time, and no one dares to mess with it in the mall.

"Little one understands."

Cheng Li nodded, and immediately arranged for someone to look for that "toad".

...

Early the next morning.

The weather in early autumn is cool and comfortable.

The headed women of most families in the capital get up early, take advantage of the morning light to clean up, prepare breakfast for the head of the house, and prepare lunch boxes for the children who are going to school to start the busy day.

But at this time, there was a loud noise on the street, waking up the family members and children who were sleeping soundly in the house.

"Mom, what are you doing outside, those noisy people have their dreams broken."

Some half-grown children rubbed their eyes, wore undershirts, and came out complaining while leaning on the door frame.

"Go in quickly, don't catch a cold, it's getting colder!"

The woman drove her son into the house, but the boy, who was completely awakened, became interested at this time.

In the past, I had to go to Xiangguo Temple and Mahang Street to watch operas, and my mother would not let me go unless it was a festival.Now the gongs and drums are knocking in front of his house, of course he wants to have a look.

So, the boy took the clothes from his mother, put them on indiscriminately, and ran out of the courtyard to watch the excitement.

Seeing this, the woman hurriedly chased after her, fearing that too many people would bump into her son, and she also wanted to watch the excitement.

After a while, the head of the family couldn't lie down anymore, and came out to watch the excitement with his clothes on.

Just like that, wherever the gongs and drums went, they were surrounded by lively people who came out of their homes.

Some were brushing their teeth with bristle toothbrushes, some were eating breakfast with biscuits, and some simply took out the family's bowls and ate on the side of the street while watching the excitement.

At this time, it was the first moment of Mao, and it was still early, and the common people had not yet gone to work, school, etc., so they just watched, discussed, and ate, full of fireworks and excitement.

"Hey, this mangy head, wearing big red flowers, what is he doing here? He also beats the gongs and drums, such a bad gambler, he actually has the money to hire someone to play the gongs and drums? This ostentation is not cheap."

Some street neighbors recognized that the person leading the gong and drum field was the well-known bad gambler Diapertou from Nancheng, so they sneered.

"Who says it's not! I heard that this manic man is going to propose a marriage. I don't know whose daughter has been unlucky for eight lifetimes, and he has taken a fancy to it!"

"He's an old bare man, if he dares to come to my house to propose marriage, I'll pull out the latch and beat him out! He's also worthy of marriage, girl from Huo Huo's family?"

"Maybe it's the widow he's in love with! Otherwise, would he dare to spend money to make trouble and come to propose marriage?"

"I don't know whose house it is?"

"Hey, I'm going to work later today, so I must follow this diarrhoea, and see what happens!"

Just like that, driven by curiosity, more and more common people followed behind the mangy head, chasing the gongs and drums.

When going further to the west of the city, those who were cautious hesitated to go forward.

"Is the mangy head here to cause trouble today? How dare you go to the nobleman's land to make trouble."

The layout of the capital is rich in the east, rich in the west, rich in the west, poor in the south, and humble in the north. Although it is not completely accurate, it is almost the same.Anyway, with no background, it is impossible to gain a foothold in Xicheng.

Seeing Mandiatou going to the West City, some people are timid and dare not set foot on the expensive land, but some people don't care, and Mandiatou proposes marriage to the noble daughter of Xicheng, and they are even more excited.

"It's all here, you don't want to know who Mandiatou proposes marriage to? Besides, so many people are following, what are you afraid of?"

The man listened, looked around, and followed him for half a street. There were so many people, so it didn't hurt to join in the fun.

So, the person who wanted to back down raised his heels again.

It took more than two quarters of an hour for Diarrhea Head to travel from the south city to the west city, crowded with people.

At this time, the streets of Xicheng were very calm, not even a tree leaf, or excrement from ox carts or carriages.

Those who have just been sent away to go to school in the Yamen, the streets are also cleaned up, which is a rare time for the housewives to breathe a sigh of relief.

At this time, the loud noise of gongs and drums made the mistresses frown unconsciously.

"Go and see, whose family is so awake, and it's not the time to report the wedding, and there are no neighbors handing out wedding invitations to do good things, why are they so noisy?"

Following the master's order, the servants poked their heads out to check the situation.

Seeing it was disastrous, and hurried back to report to the mistress.

"It's terrible, I heard that a man with dysentery in Nancheng is coming to our place to propose marriage to your noble daughter!"

"My God! This is a bad thing! Go and see Miss, don't let her go out to watch the fun."

She ordered her daughter to be watched over, but the mistress endured and ordered the housekeeper to investigate and report again.

Knowing that it was not their own house, the mistresses wanted to know whose noble daughter was so unlucky.

Moreover, the timing of this candidate's selection is very tricky. Those who can stand out and take charge have all gone to school, and the family is full of old and weak women and children. Facing the dysentery head from Nancheng, it's not a scholar who meets a soldier, and he can't tell with his mouth full Does it make sense?
