Chapter 54 Princess Huimin
As soon as Shen Shixu entered the clothing store, he heard people arguing. Watching the fun is something engraved in the genes of many people, and Shen Shixu is no exception, so he also joined in.
I squeezed to the front of the crowd to see what was happening. It was two women arguing. I heard from people who had come to watch the fun earlier that the two women liked the same dress, but there was only one of that dress, so the two women started arguing.
"You dare to snatch clothes from me? Do you know who I am? I'll scare you to death if I tell you." The girl in a goose yellow dress, double flat buns and two bells tied on her head said arrogantly to another girl in a blue dress and cloud-like buns, raising her chin.
The blue-dressed woman, Xiao Jiayi, found it very interesting to see her slightly raise her chin, acting like she was very powerful, so she smiled and asked her back, "I really don't know who you are, why don't you tell me who you are?"
Zhou Yan didn't expect that this woman didn't recognize her. She was shocked and her eyes widened. "Don't you know who I am? I am Zhou Yueran's sister, the one of the four great playboys in Beijing. You dare to mess with me. Aren't you afraid that my brother will go and cause trouble for your brothers?"
Xiao Jiayi didn't know Zhou Yan, but she had heard of the name Zhou Yueran, and this was all thanks to Jiang Bin.
Her cousin was the leader of the four great dandies. For this reason, although Xiao Jiayi seldom left the palace, she had heard of the names of the four great dandies.
However, what Xiao Jiayi found interesting was not this, but the fact that Zhou Yan reported her brother's name instead of her father's or mother's.
This kind of thing does exist, but most of them are brothers and sisters with good reputations. For example, when Shen Zexi opened a jewelry store in Beijing, he reported the name of Shen Shixu.
Zhou Yan is the first one to call herself a playboy brother, which makes Xiao Jiayi wonder if Zhou Yan only has this one brother? There are no other brothers or sisters who can be mentioned.
Chen Shixu had just asked the aunt next to him for a handful of melon seeds and was happily eating them when 011 suddenly appeared on the scene, "Brother, do you miss me? I'm out again to give you some gossip. 】
Xiao Jiayi, who was about to follow suit and report her cousin's name, realized upon hearing the voice that Lord Shen, whom she had only heard of but never seen, was also here.
Zhou Yan also reacted. The two of them looked at the onlookers and finally locked their eyes on Shen Shixu who was eating melon seeds.
Although they had never met Shen Shixu face to face, the news that Shen Shixu was good-looking had spread in their circle, so when they saw Shen Shixu, who was different from the people around him, they realized that he was the famous Shen Shaoqing, Lord Shen.
Shen Shixu lowered his head and talked to 011, not noticing the gazes of the two people, [What melon? Say it out loud now. 】
[Then I will start. The one wearing blue clothes among the two women quarreling in front of you is Princess Huimin, the half-sister of His Royal Highness Prince Jing.
The woman in the goose yellow dress who was arguing with her was the prime minister's granddaughter. What I'm telling you is that even though they are arguing fiercely now, they will have a very good relationship in the future. It can be said to be the most wonderful relationship between a sister-in-law and a sister-in-law in history. 】
011 These words made Xiao Jiayi and Zhou Yan look at each other in bewilderment. They were shocked at each other’s identities and at the same time at their future relationship.
They will be sisters-in-law in the future, which means Xiao Jiayi will marry Zhou Yueran.
This shocked Zhou Yan so much that she even suspected that 011 had seen it wrong. Her brother who hated cats and dogs could actually marry a princess and bring her home.
Xiao Jiayi was also shocked. Would she actually marry a playboy in the future? But she felt that this was unlikely. Although Emperor Wu An favored the Crown Prince and Prince Jing, he was also very good to his other children and would not marry his daughter off to anyone casually.
Moreover, Concubine Shu loved her only daughter the most. How could she agree to marry her daughter to a playboy with a bad reputation?
Shen Shixu also felt that something was wrong. [It's impossible for them to become sisters-in-law! Zhou Yueran, like my apprentice, is a notorious dandy in the capital. Not to mention marrying a princess, even the daughters of ordinary officials are not willing to marry him.
If he really married the princess, there must be something wrong. 】
011 Seeing that his master realized something was wrong so quickly, he felt proud but also felt very useless.
[Yes, there is a problem. Princess Huimin was framed by her own uncle's family and almost lost her innocence. It was Zhou Yueran who saved her. 】
Xiao Jiayi was a little bit unconvinced when she heard this. How could it be possible that her uncle's family would plot against her?
Seeing that she looked shocked, Zhou Yan helped her out considering that she would be her sister-in-law in the future and that they were both women.
[Shufei's mother's family is now in decline. There are no promising children in the family. They have no say in the court and have begun to be slowly squeezed out of the center of power.
So they started to think that by marrying a princess they could continue their family's glory for a while, so they set their sights on Xiao Jiayi, Princess Huimin.
After all, Xiao Jiayi has half of their family's blood in her body. If he marries her home, she won't be bullied by the princess and can also get her help. It's really killing two birds with one stone.
But they also knew that Princess Huimin looked down on their own children, so they asked Princess Huimin's cousin to ask her to leave the palace and let Princess Huimin live at home for a while, and then make the matter a fait accompli during this period.
Things were planned very well, and Concubine Shu and Princess Huimin had no doubts, but there was a good-for-nothing in the family.
One of Princess Huimin's cousins got drunk and complained about this matter, saying that his family looked down on him and gave such a good thing to his eldest cousin. Zhou Yueran happened to hear it, and he quickly asked for clarification. When he knew where the arrangement place was, he rushed over to rescue people.
But he was a step too late. Princess Huimin had already been drugged. Zhou Yueran had no choice but to knock the person unconscious and send her to Zhou Yan's yard. He then asked his sister Zhou Yan to find the court doctor to save Princess Huimin.
After arranging these things, he asked his grandmother to rush to the palace and tell the Empress Dowager about this matter. Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager quickly called for Concubine Shu.
The two of them disguised themselves and left the palace and went to the Prime Minister's residence. When they saw Princess Huimin who had recovered, Concubine Shu hugged her and cried bitterly.
The matter ended here and everyone was happy, but it just so happened that Zhou Yueran was seen by others when he rescued Princess Huimin from the tiger's den. When others saw Zhou Yueran holding Princess Huimin, the news spread quickly, and people said that the two of them were secretly having an affair.
Although the parties involved and the emperor all knew the truth, Princess Huimin's reputation was still damaged. There was no choice but to grant Princess Huimin and Zhou Yueran a marriage after discussion. 】
