The shopkeeper said, "There are private rooms on the second floor. I can give you the best one on the second floor."
"The third floor is gone?" Yunquan asked.
"Yes, but the private rooms on the third floor are only for distinguished guests with reservations."
"I want the third floor." Gongsun Man said.
I was enjoying the view from the third floor. I was just angry and I had to enjoy the beautiful view and drink some good wine to relieve my unhappiness.
Yunquan added: "My master is of noble status, so he is naturally an honored guest."
The shopkeeper smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm really sorry, but it won't work without an appointment."
"So many rules to break." Yunquan approached the shopkeeper, "Did you know that my master is Princess Beiqi?"
The shopkeeper kept smiling, thinking that his young lady was the Princess of Dajingrui, so which of the major shareholders of the restaurant was not a prestigious person?
At this moment, He Shi came from the kitchen and came to the lobby. She saw Yan Funing at a glance and walked straight towards her: "My daughter."
"Aunt, are you busy?" Yan Funing smiled.
"Busy." He said as she greeted Fu Ciyi and Long Xu.
The shopkeeper, who was still busy behind the counter, only then noticed Yan Funing's arrival.
He hurriedly went around the counter to avoid being grabbed by the arm.
One of Gongsun Man's secret guards frowned and grabbed the shopkeeper's arm tightly, "We want the best private room on the third floor!"
After all, considering the other party's identity, the shopkeeper had to ask He's opinion: "Madam, this guest said she is the Princess of Beiqi and wants to dine on the third floor, but they don't have a reservation."
The young lady seldom comes to the restaurant on weekdays. The Liu family basically makes decisions on all matters big and small in the restaurant, so he was asking about the He family at this moment.
Following the shopkeeper's gaze, Gongsun Man finally saw Yan Funing and Fu Ciyi.
"Prince Rui also came to this restaurant, which shows that you and I are quite destined to meet."
Gongsun Man changed her rude and unreasonable attitude and even had a pink smile on her face.
Fu Ciyi ignored it completely.
When He heard this, she said to the shopkeeper, "Have you forgotten the rules of this restaurant?"
As I was speaking, I kept thinking to myself, wow, what a fate.
This isn't the way to hook up with a man, is it?
"Of course I haven't forgotten." The shopkeeper had no choice but to say to Gongsun Man and the others, "You've heard it too. My boss lady has already said that only guests with reservations can go to the third floor. The private rooms on the second floor are also fine. Would you consider it?"
Gongsun Man was angry.
Considering that she was a princess of a great country, when she was in Beiqi, which shop would not compete to curry favor with her whenever she went out?
But today in the capital city of Dajing, she was treated coldly one after another, which made her so angry that she almost fumed.
Yan Funing said to He Shi, "Aunt, His Highness, my little cousin and I are going to dine on the third floor. Are there any private rooms available?"
"Yes!" He smiled and turned to tell the waiter, "Go and take the order for the young lady and the others."
The waiter responded by raising his hand to invite you in.
Yan Funing walked past Gongsun Man with light lotus steps and went up the stairs.
Following behind him were Fu Ciyi and Long Xu.
Gongsun Man was very dissatisfied and strode over to He Shi. "Hey, Auntie!" She pointed at Yan Funing, who had already reached the second floor. "Does she have an appointment?"
He couldn't help but shake her head, not wanting to respond.
Gongsun Man glanced at the two secret guards. One of them clenched his fist towards the shopkeeper, while the other cracked his knuckles towards He.
The shopkeeper said, "My restaurant belongs to my young lady. What does it matter whether she has a reservation or not?"
"Is this restaurant also owned by Yan Funing?" Gongsun Man's face was filled with anger.
Prince Rui ignored her, and now she was told that the second restaurant she chose was also owned by Yan Funing.
He sneered, "Prince Rui has his own Consort Rui. As the Princess of Beiqi, how can you seduce a man in front of his wife?"
"I seduce?"
Gongsun Man pointed at herself, she was so angry that she ordered the secret guards to smash and destroy things.
Before the two secret guards could make a move, waiters from the restaurant came out with their weapons, and their numbers alone were several times greater than those of the secret guards.
Helpless, Gongsun Man had to leave the restaurant.
After such a commotion, he no longer had the heart to drink and immediately returned to the inn.
At this moment, Gongsun Sheng and Gongsun Lei were having lunch.
"Brother, I'm so pissed off." Gongsun Man sat down opposite her brother.
Gongsun Lei, who was standing diagonally opposite, asked, "What could possibly provoke you?"
Gongsun Man was too lazy to speak, so Yunquan did it for her.
After listening to the whole call, Gongsun Sheng's voice was cold: "I told you before, don't offend the Yan family."
"I haven't offended the Yan family."
Although Gongsun Man had no appetite, she still took the bowl and chopsticks to eat.
"Isn't it Yan Funing?" Gongsun Sheng asked back.
Gongsun Man put down her chopsticks: "Brother, why are you speaking for her?"
"I even went to the Yan family to apologize to Yan Funing for you." Gongsun Lei tutted, "Why didn't you go to Prince Rui's mansion, but to the Yan family instead?"
"I knew the Yan family when I was little. Is it wrong for me to come here this time?"
Asking a rhetorical question counts as an explanation.
Gongsun Lei smiled and shook his head, without refuting his brother's words.
Gongsun Man finally reacted: "Brother, you are not interested in Yan Funing, are you?"
When asked the question, he laughed out loud, picked up his chopsticks again to eat, and his mood for eating suddenly became much better.
Gongsun Sheng neither admitted nor denied it.
After dinner, Gongsun Man laughed again: "Brother, you take Yan Funing back to Beiqi, and I will stay in Dajing and marry Prince Rui. The problem will be solved."
Gongsun Lei raised the question: "Our brother is the crown prince, how can he marry a woman who has been married before?"
Gongsun Man said, "Don't forget that my brother is already in his twenties. If Father and Mother knew that he had finally found a woman he liked, the problem would no longer be a problem."
"I just went to the palace to have a brief meeting with the Fifth Princess at the request of Emperor Dajing." Gongsun Sheng's face was expressionless. "Before leaving the palace, Emperor Dajing asked me if I was interested in the Fifth Princess as a possible marriage partner."
"Then how do you answer?" Gongsun Man suddenly became anxious.
"I said I'll come back and think about it, and I'll have a reply then."
"I met the Fifth Princess this morning, too. She was quite boring, all she could do was talk about the good relationship between her brother and sister-in-law." Gongsun Man smiled. "If I were to find anyone interesting, it would have to be Yan Funing. She's a delicate person, but she's quite the talker. Not only that, she owns two well-known restaurants, so she's obviously quite good at making money."
As long as Yan Funing doesn't compete with her for Prince Rui, she can say any good things.
On this side, the brothers and sisters were discussing the marriage.
On the other side, Fu Ciyi, Yan Funing said goodbye to Long Xu, and the couple entered the palace, while Long Xu returned to Tong Cheng's blacksmith shop.
When the young couple arrived at the palace, they did not see the emperor in the imperial study.
The two of them asked Eunuch Han.
Eunuch Han smiled and said, "The Emperor is currently in the Empress's Palace, discussing the Fifth Princess's marriage."
"Has Nan Yao's marriage been decided?" Yan Funing asked.
"It's probably settled," Eunuch Han said in a low voice. "Actually, I wouldn't dare say anything definitive before the Emperor makes his decision. However, Crown Prince Sheng and the Fifth Princess met alone this morning and talked for quite a while." He beamed. "There's going to be a big happy event in the palace."
"I see."
Yan Funing thought to herself that Ali would be sad eventually.
Fu Ciyi asked, "Gongsun Man said that the emperor wanted me to marry her. Does your father know about this?"
