He was betrayed at the beginning, from a cake seller to a wealthy person

Lu Yan thought for a while and came up with an idea: "Since we can't destroy our reputation, how about we improve our reputation and make the other party feel that they are not worthy of you and quit?"

Jian Hongling was shocked: "How is this possible?"

"It's possible." Lu Yan explained: "For example, we can find someone of our own to help, preferably on the side of the prince, and let him come to propose marriage before the Huang family. Your father will definitely disagree. But it doesn't matter, let the news go. Spread the word.”

"Then let him find an excuse to go up the mountain and visit some temple or Taoist temple. When he comes back, he will pretend to have fallen off a cliff and broken his leg. Then let the news out. The Taoist priest or eminent monk will say that you are beautiful and suffered hardships in your childhood because you are You are born with a phoenix destiny, and ordinary people's destiny cannot control you, so marrying you will cause problems."

"In this way, not only the Huang family will not dare to provoke you, but also no other family will dare to come. From now on, it will be legitimate for you to be with the prince. A phoenix should be paired with a real dragon."

Jian Hongling was fascinated by what she heard and thought about it for a moment: "It sounds feasible at first, but I always feel like something is a little weird."

Lu Yan took a sip of tea and nodded: "Your intuition is right. This method has a very serious danger with a high probability of happening. Once it happens, there will be no way to remedy it."

Jian Hongling was curious: "What is it?"

Lu Yan: "Once this matter is publicized, it will definitely attract the emperor's attention. If His Majesty decides to include you in the harem, it will be completely over."

Jian Hongling spat out a sip of tea: "Impossible!"

"Why is it impossible? Don't you know what you look like?" Lu Yan curled her lips: "And to say the least, if the Holy Emperor doesn't like you. But he is the Emperor, and he was the only true dragon before the Crown Prince ascended the throne. Son of Heaven, he must be possessive of Phoenix Life woman, no matter who she is or what she looks like, he will default to her."

Jian Hongling thought for a while and felt that Lu Yan was right. There are too many uncontrollable factors. But in the previous paragraph, you can ask someone else to come to the Huang family first to propose marriage and then pretend to be injured, which can be used.

Jian Hongling changed a version in her mind and told Lu Yan: "The previous situation remains the same. People come to propose marriage and then go up the mountain to get injured. Instead of saying that I am a phoenix, they say that I am a boy born through calamity and cannot get married before the age of eighteen. , otherwise it will easily bring bloody disaster to the suitor."

Lu Yan clapped her hands: "This is a good idea! Now we just need to find someone more suitable."

Jian Hongling fell into deep thought. Lu Yan suddenly remembered a person and couldn't help but said: "What do you think of Wang Hanlin's grandson Wang Tingyu!"

Wang Hanlin belongs to the prince, and Jian Hongling's father will never marry her to the Wang family, so the Wang family is a good choice. At the same time, Wang Tingruo is still a good friend of Jian Hongling. It is normal for Wang Tingruo's brother to like Jian Hongling. This news will not arouse any suspicion at all.

Jian Hongling could obviously think of this, and her eyes lit up: "Okay! I'll go talk to Tingruo right now."

Lu Yan: "Isn't it a coincidence? Wang Tingyu, Wang Tingruo, and Mrs. Wang are all here today. Let me call them down for you."

Jian Hongling nodded: "Then I'll wait here. I don't want to go up. Something might happen if my stepmother sees her."

Lu Yan ran upstairs to call the family of three down. As a result, there were not many people on the first and second floors. Everyone had almost eaten and went upstairs to have fun.

As soon as Lu Yan reached the third floor, she was shocked by the noise. A high school student is worthy of fifty ducks.

The chess and card room was built according to the layout of a hot spring village. It was surrounded by a circle of small partitioned rooms for people to play cards. Several ladies were concentrating on playing cards, and you could hear their occasional exclamations. And these men were playing chess, one wave playing flying chess, another wave playing checkers.

Lu Sheng saw Lu Yan coming up and walked over to greet her: "Why are you here?"

Lu Yan looked around: "Where is Wang Tingyu? I'm looking for Wang Tingyu."

Lu Sheng's heart was ringing with alarm, and he asked alertly: "Why are you looking for him?"

Lu Yan was still looking around: "Something happened. His mother and his sister are here too. I have something to do with their family."

Lu Sheng hesitated and said, "Go up to the fifth floor and take a look."

Lu Yan turned around and walked towards the stairs. There was no one on the fourth floor, so I went straight to the fifth floor. Wang Tingyu was indeed on the fifth floor, with his mother and his sister.

Lu Yan walked over quickly: "I finally found you."

Wang Tingruo saw her and greeted her: "Shopkeeper Lu, what's wrong?"

Lu Yan: "Jian Hongling is in the backyard now and wants to ask you for a favor. Come down with me and let's talk face to face."

When Wang Tingruo and Mrs. Wang heard that Jian Hongling was coming, they both stood up and started to walk out. Wang Tingyu was even more excited than his sister: "Is Miss Jian here?"

Lu Yan glanced at him hesitantly and nodded. Something feels wrong inside, and I can't explain why.

Lu Yan took the three of them downstairs. When passing by the third floor, Lu Sheng greeted her and asked Lu Yan if she wanted to go there and accompany her.

Lu Yan shook her head: "It's none of your business, just wait for the guests."

Several people quickly arrived in the backyard, where Jian Hongling was sitting at the stone table waiting for them. Jian Hongling turned around when she heard the noise. When she saw them coming, she immediately stood up and walked over to greet them.

Lu Yan felt that she had been hit hard by her beauty, and kept staring at Jian Hongling's face. When she came back to her senses and wanted to reflect on herself, she found that Wang Tingyu's expression was even duller than Lu Yan's.

Lu Yan clicked her tongue in her heart, wouldn't Wang Tingyu like Jian Hongling?
