girl, you're wrong

Chapter 423 Counterattack
Wang Wanrou looked at the poor-looking face, raised her eyebrows slightly, and was about to turn her head to stare at Cheng Jinyang, but Princess Nankang turned her side to cover her sight.

"Wanrou." The princess sister smiled, "I heard that you ate an unauthentic noodle restaurant at noon, so my sister chose an authentic noodle restaurant this time, and try to see if it suits your taste?"

"This noodle..." Wang Wanrou took a sip, "It's really greasy."

"If it's greasy, scoop off the oil on the surface." The princess sister took the spoon and scooped off the soup for her without any explanation.

"Too salty." Wang Wanrou's eyelids twitched.

She wanted to sneer a few words, but she knew that the princess sister was the one who came here this time, if she really broke her face and became arrogant, she must be the one who suffered.

"If it's too salty, it's just right with plain water." Elder Princess went to the side and poured boiled water, and brought it to her.

Cheng Jinyang watched in shock from behind.

What is a scholar who meets a soldier?I get it, I get it, it turns out that Miss Wang can be bullied like this, so write it down immediately.

Wang Wanrou's complexion remained unchanged, she washed the noodles in white water, and ate half of them one by one in silence, then wiped her mouth with a napkin, and said:
"Your Highness's kindness, I appreciate it. But next time, I don't need to bother so much, I will go with Jinyang to eat."

"Wanrou, you don't have to be polite." Seeing her subdued appearance, the princess sister put away her intimidating gesture and said, "The young girl should come out and walk around more, otherwise she will lie in the room all day, yes His bones are not good either."

"Your Highness said so." Wang Wanrou smiled slightly.

Seeing her smile like this, Cheng Jinyang immediately felt a little apprehensive.

This is the meaning of enmity!

"Hey, let's not talk about this." He hurried out to smooth things over, "Wanrou, since you are willing to go out, why don't we go out for supper tonight?"

……

After walking around in the underground city, everyone knew that everything was expensive here, except staple food and mushrooms.

The reason is that the main food and mushrooms (source of vitamins) can be produced here, but the underground agricultural base has insufficient light, so the taste is not good; other meat and vegetables are all imported, so the taste is normal, but the price is much more expensive.

Of course, the expensive here is only for ordinary residents, and for a proud girl like Miss Wang, even if the price is ten times higher, they can still afford it.

At noon, I ate the greasy and hard to swallow mushroom noodles. It was a pure accident that someone took it to the wrong store.

In the barbecue restaurant, Wang Wanrou narrowed her eyes slightly and said with a smile as she watched Princess Princess put a few grilled skewers into Cheng Jinyang's bowl.
"Jinyang, Your Highness really treats you like a younger brother."

Cheng Jinyang didn't know what medicine she sold in the gourd, but it was definitely not a good medicine, so he could only pretend to be dumb.

"In fact, Jinyang and I have known each other for a long time. When we were studying under the teacher, we also took him for a while." The princess sister also said with a smile, "The teacher treats me very well, how can I not treat Jinyang well?"

Have known each other for a long time?Cheng Jinyang didn't bother to eat, and quickly rummaged through his original memory.

"So that's how it is." Wang Wanrou said with a smile, "It's just that it's too good, and I'm going to be jealous of him. If His Highness gets married in the future, maybe the son-in-law will also be jealous of Jinyang?"

Before the two could speak, she seemed to think of something again, and said with a smile:

"Oh, a few days ago, Mr. Zhongshu was still discussing His Highness's marriage with my father. The empire has been in two consecutive civil wars, and the strong branch has become weak. The Shenwu Army's Yu Siao is about to retire. Someone you can trust is in charge."

Princess Nankang's complexion changed when she said this, and even the mood to continue the barbecue disappeared in an instant.

Among the four armies of the empire, the most powerful is the Longxiang Army, followed by Shenwu, Xiaoqi, and Feixiong.

Since Yiguan went south, the Longxiang Army has been firmly controlled by the Taiyuan Wang family.The Sima royal family placed many clan children in the Shenwu Army, so as to control this army as much as possible, so as to maintain the balance of power between the east and the west.

However, most of the clan's children are middle and low-level officers, but it is impossible to be the commander-in-chief of the Shenwu Army.After all, the blood of the Sima family is flowing. If he controls one of the four armies, how is it different from the ancient vassal kings with regular troops?
Although there is nothing like Li Shimin or Zhu Di in this world, everyone understands the simplest political truth.Those who have a reputation must not be allowed to have strength, otherwise they will push others to aspire to the throne.

Therefore, the leader of the Shenwu Army has always been the most trusted minister of the emperor.

Now the situation is different: the young emperor ascends the throne, the empress dowager is regent, and Zhong Shuling is the eldest brother of the empress dowager.The successor to the great position of the Shenwu Army is not so much to make "the emperor trustworthy", it is better to say "Yu's trustworthy".

However, Yu Yuangui's scheme goes further.After Wang Chuzhong's rebellion failed, the Wang family in Taiyuan lost control of the Longxiang Army, and Tao Shixing temporarily took over the festival.

Tao Shixing was older than Yu Siao, and as soon as the old man retired, Yu Yuangui would immediately hold the Longxiang Army in his hands, so as to ensure a deterrent to the gentry group.

In this way, it will be impossible for the gentry group to allow the Yu clan to take control of the Shenwu Army again, otherwise, you, the Yu clan, will have the second chance in the Fourth Army of the Empire, and everyone will just treat you as the emperor.

That is to say, after Yu Si'ao retires, the Shenwu Army will face an embarrassing situation: the gentry group will never accept a person from the Yu family to take the position; rebel.

That is to say, it is best for this candidate to be from a noble family, but Sima must feel that he is one of his own, and Yu Yuangui has to reluctantly accept it... So it is enough to find a noble family to be a son-in-law?

This is why Wang Wanrou is saying that Yu Yuangui and Wang Maohong are discussing this matter:
Today, princess, you can marry whoever you want.The position of the son-in-law can only be determined by the three parties' political camps at the same time.

After about three or four minutes of silence, the princess sister finally figured out the relationship, and looked at Wang Wanrou differently from before.

"Can you influence your father's decision?" Now that she was talking about this, she didn't bother to pretend anymore, she simply questioned directly, "How do I remember that the heir of your Taiyuan Wang family is your third brother?"

"I just need to tell my father that I want to marry Jinyang, and he won't be able to be a son-in-law." Wang Wanrou said with a smile.

Cheng Jinyang was surprised when he heard it next to him: What, Wanrou wants to marry me?
Hahaha, Wanrou really still loves me, but saying this in front of the princess sister is too embarrassing for her to step down.

Oh, you should love each other, don't quarrel!
He racked his brains, trying to think of some words to ease the situation, but he didn't know that the same words fell into the ears of the princess, but they had completely different meanings.

Taiyuan Wang, a noble daughter with five surnames, how can she be the concubine of the son-in-law?

If Wang Maohong really loved his youngest daughter and was willing to intervene in decision-making for her, then whether Cheng Jinyang should be the son-in-law or Wang's son-in-law would become a political struggle between the Taiyuan Wang family and the foreign relatives group.

Wang Wanrou, you are really poisonous, you can actually threaten to provoke a full-scale conflict between the family and relatives for your own selfish desires!
Thinking of this, a cold light gradually grew in her eyes, and said with a sneer:
"In that case, let's wait and see."
