Quick Wear: Who said soft girls have to be obedient! biu!

Tan Yuetong was carried back to the princess's mansion. She cried and fainted several times because Yongle was discussing her marriage with everyone.

The royal nobles held the power of life and death, and they did not take people like Tan Yuetong seriously at all.

It was just a marriage, and Yongle could make the decision without even discussing it with them.

Even though Tan Yuetong has a mother and an uncle, she cannot make any decisions for herself.

She kept crying, which made Qu Qiuer panic and scared.

Is this a failure?

Qu Qiuer hugged her daughter, "Tong'er, what happened? Did you fail to talk to the young master? Or did some shady person take advantage of you?"

They planned to have some skin contact with the Crown Prince's wife's youngest son in public. The best outcome would be that the other party would recognize the marriage for the princess' sake, and the worst outcome would be that she would become a concubine in the mansion.

A sure-profit trade.

But Tan Yuetong never expected that the servants in Prince Lian's mansion were so well-behaved and never let guests stay alone. What she could not accept the most was that this group of royal relatives and court ladies did not take her seriously at all.

That is a kind of contempt, a contempt that has a way of making you disappear without anyone noticing even if you succeed today.

Tan Yuetong was desperate and cried out, "Mom! My daughter is finished! My daughter's life is over!"

She told her mother everything, crying.

Qu Qiu'er almost couldn't catch her breath. She panted for a long time and said, "You mean, the Crown Prince's wife is dissatisfied with you in public, and your reputation in the capital is... It's over?"

How could this be?

Qu Qiuer never expected this.

Tan Yuetong lay on the bed and cried bitterly, "Even if we succeed in the future, no one in the capital will marry me! What's the point of me living!"

Who would marry a person with bad character?

Even being a concubine is difficult, no one wants to offend the royal family.

Qu Qiuer was filled with grief. She just wanted to find a good home for her daughter. Was there anything wrong with that?

She leaned over and hugged her daughter, crying with her for a while, "Tong'er, let's help your father get the splendor and wealth of the princess's mansion and then go back to our hometown in Huai County. The people there have never seen you before, so you can choose whatever you want, okay?"

Tan Yuetong felt better. Although it was a pity that she could not marry in the capital, in the long run, she still had to have a good marriage.

She wiped her tears and said, "Mom, the day after tomorrow is New Year's Eve. I heard from Gu Zhen that the mansion has bought a lot of fireworks and firecrackers, and they want to have a good time. Can we start then?"

If he delays any further, Duan Wenjing will be no different from an ordinary person, and it will be extremely difficult for him to take action.

Qu Qiuer nodded. Everything was ready and they were just waiting for the New Year's Eve family dinner. By then, these arrogant guys would all go to hell!

.

In Zhuyi Garden, Duan Wenjing had just finished his morning exercise.

The yard already has the flavor of the New Year, with lights and decorations, a festive atmosphere, and blessing characters and various paper-cuts pasted everywhere.

He and Gu Zhen wrote the couplet themselves while he held their hands.

Duan Wenjing pinched his arm. Although he was not strong and powerful, he was no different from an ordinary young man. He truly felt in the past few days that he had recovered from those tormenting years.

Walking up to his wife who was still counting the accounts, Duan Wenjing bent down and kissed her cheek.

"Don't forget to prepare a red envelope for your husband for our New Year's Eve dinner tonight."

Gu Zhen calculated, "What about you? Have you prepared anything for me?"

Duan Wenjing's face was silently getting hot behind her, but he disguised it well, "Of course there is, Madam Bao is satisfied."

Gu Zhen was busy calculating the bills and did not notice that something was wrong with him. She just nodded perfunctorily and continued to check the rent for the year.

Duan Wenjing took a book and sat quietly beside her.

Qu Qiuer and her daughter were forced into a desperate situation and were about to take action on New Year's Eve, but these people didn't know that their plans had been completely grasped by Gu Zhen.

Do you think you can bribe the servants in the princess's mansion with a few tattered jewelries?

This is too simple.

Duan Wenjing curled his lips and sneered.

In the evening, Princess Yongle sent someone to inform him, and Duan Wenjing took Gu Zhen's hand and walked slowly towards the main room.

At the gate of the main courtyard, the couple happened to meet Qu Qiuer and her three sons.

After only three days of not seeing each other, Tan Yuetong looked much more haggard, with dull eyes, yet she was hiding a myriad of unspeakable emotions.

His eyeballs rolled around from time to time, making Gu Zhen feel very uncomfortable.

Tan Lixuan was a little excited and was still recalling the courtesan he had met yesterday.

With the recommendation of his husband, he was admitted to the Qingzhu Academy in the capital as an exception. His classmates were all young masters of some reputation, and what they had seen and known were far beyond his reach.

The places where they go out to play every day are also the brothels, prostitutes, and music houses that they once dreamed of.

After only knowing them for a few days, Tan Lixuan felt that his first ten years or so had been almost wasted.

Yesterday, he went to the largest brothel in the capital, Baifang Pavilion, with the young master of the Minister of War.

The girl there was no ordinary woman, she was a sweet talker and a confidante who understood his suffering and his ambitions.

Tan Lixuan's soul was completely bewitched by the girl named Qingzhi.

So much so that when he entered the house, he even forgot to greet the princess and her husband.

Yongle was displeased and had just frowned when Duan Qianliang scolded him, "How many times have I called you that? You are so unruly!"

Tan Lixuan was frightened and replied subconsciously: "Dad... No, it was my uncle. My uncle taught me a lesson. I won't dare to do it again..."

Everyone in the room, except the princess and Gu Zhen and his wife, was terrified.

What the hell is this about daddy or not!

Duan Qianliang broke out in a cold sweat on his back and glared at Tan Lixuan fiercely.

But the princess seemed not to hear and continued drinking tea.

Duan Qianliang breathed a sigh of relief, "Your Highness, everyone is here, shall we start the feast?"

Yongle nodded and said, "Send someone to serve the food. Today is a family dinner, so let's all sit together and have fun. There's no need to be too formal."

Gu Zhen glanced around the room casually and found that the servants had indeed been replaced.

They are all servants recently bribed by Qu Qiuer and Duan Qianliang.

The food was served one after another, and Princess Yongle even prepared good wine.

"I'm happy today. Jing'er is in good health. It's a rare opportunity to celebrate the New Year. I'd like to offer a toast to everyone first."

Yongle drank the wine in the cup and seemed to be in a very good mood.

The prince consort followed closely behind, "I hope my son can recover soon, and I will do it too!"

Duan Wenjing lowered his eyes and said, "Thank you, father, thank you, mother. I will drink some wine today, but drink slowly. Please feel free to do as you please."

He picked up the wine glass and found that it contained freshly poured wine.

Gu Zhen was naturally with her husband. After drinking the wine, they sat down to liven up the atmosphere.

Qu Qiuer relaxed her guard and went up to the princess to toast her diligently. After that, she went to coax Gu Zhen and his wife.

She was very good at flattering, and maybe everyone was really happy tonight, so they were very happy to give her face and drank glass after glass of wine.
