The doctor concubine who broke off the engagement was forced to rush to the wedding, but became the

Xie Zhichan slept very well on the first night he moved into Feiniao Pavilion.

The next morning, he went to greet Xie's mother and told her that he was going out to buy some things. Then he took Xiao Liu'er to stroll in the street, leaving Mai Sui to guard the yard.

It is said that military generals bring peace to the country and civil officials govern the world.

She knew that the Jin Dynasty was now suffering from a decline in military power. Some soldiers and generals in the northern border often said that if the Prince of Yan was gone, they didn't know who would be able to take on the role of commander-in-chief in the northern border battlefield!

As for the civil officials of the Jin Dynasty, look at the foolish Langzhong of the Ministry of Rites in her family. Does he have the ability to govern the country?

She always felt that she had traveled to neither an era of Kaiyuan prosperity nor an era of Zhongxing prosperity, but rather an era with a high degree of instability.

She knew too little about the Jin Dynasty, especially the situation of the entire society, which would affect her future survival.

If she is destined to experience troubled times, even if she is given a space golden finger, it cannot guarantee that she will live a good life. She has to make some preparations in advance. She can't let herself travel through time in vain.

So she decided to go to the street and see for herself.

To see whether an era is good or bad, just look at how the people living in it live.

But she was so excited to take Xiao Liu'er out shopping, but she was worried while shopping.

At the end of the day, there were bullies who went to street shops and demanded protection money. When the shop owners couldn't afford it, they smashed the shops and beat people.

The playboy molested decent women, but because he was the son of an official, the women did not dare to report him to the authorities.

Some shops with booming business are worried that their profits will not be enough to pay taxes.

The hardships of people's lives in the Jin Dynasty can be seen in this capital.

Xie Zhichan looked up at the sky in silence. She had a hunch that as a time traveler, if she could find her other half in this world, that other person would definitely be a tough guy and would drag her to burn with him.

As to whether it would be the number one scholar, she was not sure yet.

She needed to have a good meal before thinking about how to deal with the original owner's fiancé.

She said to Xiao Liu'er, "Xiao Liu'er, let's go to the largest restaurant in Kyoto and have a good meal."

After strolling around for a day, Xiao Liuer heard that the largest restaurant in Kyoto was Shuiyunlou, and a meal there would cost at least twenty taels of silver.

She pinched the empty purse at her waist and said in embarrassment, "But young lady, the money we earned in Qiucheng has been almost spent on the road, and the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion has not yet paid us the monthly allowance. I only have two taels of silver in my purse now."

Xie Zhichan touched the gold and ruby ​​phoenix-playing-with-beads bracelet on his hand and laughed, "Who said we have no money? We will have a huge sum of money soon."

After saying that, he took Xiao Liu'er to the largest pawnshop in Kyoto.

After coming out of the pawnshop, Xie Zhichan counted the silver bills in her hand again. There were exactly one thousand taels. This was the largest sum of money she had ever received since she came to this world.

She has to thank the Cloud Brain Laboratory for activating a large number of her brain cells, giving her a pair of titanium eyes that have a photographic memory.

It was just a jewelry appreciation magazine that she had quickly flipped through in her spare time in her previous life, but it allowed her to accurately judge the grade of the jewelry.

She handed all the banknotes to Xiao Liu'er and said, "Now your purse is full again."

Xiao Liu'er put the banknote into her purse as if it were a treasure, and said with a chuckle, "Miss, if the old woman knew about this, would she be so mad that she would die?"

Xie Zhichan smiled and said, "I'm just worried that she won't die of anger. If she does die of anger, my mother will have one less mountain of a mother-in-law on her back."

As they talked, the two of them walked into Shuiyun Tower, asked for a good private room, ordered a roast goose, a roast suckling pig, and two pots of peach blossom wine, and ate and drank to their heart's content, taking a bite of meat and a sip of wine.

During this time, Xiao Liuer went to the bathroom once. When she came back and closed the door, she said to Xie Zhichan mysteriously, "Miss, I think I saw the second lady."

Xie Zhichan pondered for a while about who the second girl was, and then he remembered Xie Zhining, the concubine of the Duke of Weiguo's mansion.

Xiao Liuer added, "There was also a young lady from an official family, who went into the next room."

Xie Zhichan didn't know how Xiao Liu'er got the habit of being a spy, but she saw Xiao Liu'er had already pressed her ear against the wall of the next room. She had drunk a few glasses of wine and was a little tipsy, so she thought it was fun, so she leaned over to listen.

Then I heard Xie Zhining's voice saying, "Sister Baoying, long time no see. Why did you think of asking me out today?"

Huang Baoying said: "Someone asked me to ask you something."

Xie Zhining said: "I am curious, who in Shangjing City can make Sister Baoying work for her?"

Huang Baoying said, "My father is just a small Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. Above him is the Minister of Revenue, and above him is the royal family. To be honest, it was Princess Anle who asked me to find you to find out about the matter."

Xie Zhining's voice became noticeably louder, as if he was excited. "What can Princess Anle ask me?"

As soon as Xie Zhichan heard it, he knew what Xie Zhining was thinking at the moment.

Although Aunt Yang often brought Xie Zhining to banquets, the top aristocratic families looked down on families like the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion where the marital status was unclear, and never sent invitations to Aunt Yang. Therefore, the only ladies in the Kyoto noble family that Xie Zhining could make friends with were the family members of a third-rank official like Huang Baoying, so she could not squeeze into the circle of princes and sons of noble families.

Seeing that she was about to reach the age of marriage, her marriage would be arranged accordingly. However, as a concubine's daughter, the best marriage for her would be to become the wife of a concubine's son of a noble family, or to become a concubine of a legitimate son.

As a concubine's daughter, she looks down on concubine's sons, and she is not worthy of being the wife of the powerful and influential legitimate sons. Since we are all concubines, why not be the concubines of princes and sons of the royal family?

Xie Zhichan knew that her half-sister had great ambitions.

When she heard that Princess Anle came to her to inquire about something, she was probably already fantasizing about how to hook up with the guy in the Eastern Palace through Princess Anle.

As I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard Huang Baoying say, "I want to ask you about your eldest sister, Xie Zhichan."

Xie Zhichan had not expected that he could hear the sound coming from his head just by eavesdropping in a corner. He sobered up a little immediately, pricked up his ears, and listened attentively.

Then Xie Zhining said unhappily, "Why mention that vulgar and barbaric guy? It will only spoil the fun for others."

Huang Baoying asked, "I heard that she is engaged to the new number one scholar Lu Xiuzhu?"

Xie Zhining became even more angry and said, "I don't know where she got such good luck. She got engaged as a child and married a top scholar."

Huang Baoying continued to ask: "What does the Lu family think of this marriage?"

Xie Zhining sneered and said, "What can I think? It was originally a pheasant married to a pheasant, and neither of them suffered a loss. But once the pheasant turned into a phoenix, can you still be willing to marry a pheasant? When we exchanged the engagement letter, we agreed that he would come to my house to propose as soon as he was admitted, and set the nearest auspicious day for the wedding. Now several days have passed, and there has been no movement from the Earl of Chiayi's mansion. Aren't you thinking of delaying it?"

Huang Baoying asked again: "Is your elder sister really as rude as you said?"

Xie Zhining said, "He just came home yesterday and he robbed my grandmother of a bracelet worth a thousand gold coins. He also said that my father couldn't get a promotion because of the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children. He made my mother very angry. Isn't that rude enough?"

Huang Baoying felt that she had found out enough, so she drank another cup of tea with Xie Zhining and promised Xie Zhining that she would say a few good words for her in front of Princess Anle and ask for an invitation for her to the Spring Banquet at the Princess's Mansion this year.

After the two left, Xiao Liu'er pouted her red face and said angrily, "Girl, Princess Anle must have fallen in love with Mr. Lu and wants to snatch your fiancé!"

In fact, Xie Zhichan understood it without Xiao Liu'er explaining it.

The only daughter of Princess Yongtai, the most beloved sister of the current emperor, has set her sights on Mr. Lu.

It seems that her fiancé who fell from the sky is going to fly to someone else's plate——

Alas, even if Xie's mother predicts the future of the son-in-law, she still doesn't have the strength to fight against the powerful, right?

All the worries in her mind about how to deal with her fiancé suddenly disappeared.

However, Duke Weiguo’s world is probably about to fall.
