She really doesn't have time.
If everyone who meets her says that, does she even want to live?
Shuyuan hadn't expected her to be so resolute.
"I'd like to ask you about trains."
Although Tong Cheng'er didn't show anything on her face when she heard this, she couldn't help but be shocked inside.
train?
Is this person also from another time?
Then Tong Cheng'er looked at her blankly and said, "What are you talking about? What train? A train with fire? Wouldn't that burn the train to the ground? Consort, you really know how to joke."
Seeing that she wouldn't admit it and was still pretending to be stupid, Shuyuan continued, "I really have something to tell Fourth Princess Consort."
Although Tong Cheng'er didn't know what she wanted to say, she didn't actually want to hear it.
Finally, Tong Cheng'er couldn't resist her pestering any longer and reluctantly agreed.
She said to Ruxue and Guarjia's maid, "Please wait a moment while I speak with my concubine."
Ru Xue naturally had no objections, but she couldn't help but show a worried expression on her face. After all, she felt that this Consort Ulanara was not quite normal, and she also had a history of slandering the Consort. To be honest, she was not very at ease.
However, she still walked to the side.
Guarjia's maid wanted to stop her, fearing that Shuyuan might say something detrimental to her mistress, but it was beyond her control.
With only the two of them present, Tong Cheng'er said directly, "If you have something to say, you'd better keep it short. I don't have much patience."
Shuyuan felt uncomfortable, but she couldn't help it; at this moment, she needed someone's help.
"I come from the future, just like you."
"I know you only made him your consort because you valued his future as emperor..."
"...I've been framed, and now I just want to ask you for a favor. I want to do business with you."
Shuyuan rattled off a whole bunch of things, leaving Tong Cheng'er's head buzzing.
She could guess that this person was from another time, since she had just mentioned a train, but Tong Cheng'er was genuinely surprised when she said that Yinzhen would be the emperor in the future.
That's not surprising.
Although Yinzhen told her about his dream, he didn't go into details. Tong Cheng'er wasn't interested in these things, so she really didn't know that Yinzhen could become the emperor.
As for doing business together, Tong Cheng'er would never agree to that. Most of her own businesses are managed by Yinzhen's people. If she were to do business with her and be manipulated by her words, would she be crazy?
Then Tong Cheng'er looked at Shu Yuan with a shocked expression: "Consort Ulanara, I will pretend I didn't hear anything you said today. How dare you say such treasonous words? His Majesty is the Emperor Father now, and the Crown Prince is favored by the Emperor. How could you make such a fuss about our Master saying that he is the future Emperor? If people hear this, they will say that our Master has ulterior motives. If I hear such words again, I will definitely tear your mouth apart and make you unable to speak again."
Shuyuan was taken aback when she heard this. This was different from what she had thought. Could it be that she was really mistaken and that this Fourth Princess Consort was not from her hometown?
"Impossible, I couldn't be wrong."
Tong Cheng'er was afraid that she would go crazy and talk nonsense, so she quickly said, "What do you mean it's impossible? Consort, what nonsense are you talking about? Also, what do you mean you're from the future? And what do you mean I'm the same as you? That's utter nonsense. How could someone from the future come to the present?"
Shuyuan was even more confused when she heard this. Judging from her expression, she didn't seem to be lying!
Could it be that she really contacted the wrong person?
But how do you explain the sofa?
How do you explain "pencil"?
Shuyuan asked, "So how did you invent the pencil, the sofa, and milk tea?"
Tong Cheng'er looked completely innocent: "I didn't make these things. They were made by the people in the manor. I think I'm lucky. The people in the manor have very novel ideas, and the things they make are exactly what I want."
Shuyuan was completely dumbfounded.
So, this Fourth Prince Consort really isn't the person she's looking for?
The sofas, pencils, and milk tea that the people in the Prince Yong's mansion made—does this mean that time travelers can now buy them in bulk?
Firstly, they could bring in a whole bunch of them. Not only that, they were all thinking of raising them to work in the future emperor's palace. Thinking about it this way, it doesn't seem impossible.
Shuyuan looked completely lost and dejected.
Tong Cheng'er's eyes flashed with complexity, then she said with a serious expression, "Consort Ulanara, I will pretend that today's events never happened. I don't want any rumors to spread in the future. If I hear anything, please don't blame me for being impolite."
After saying that, Tong Cheng'er left in a huff.
Actually, she was feeling uneasy. Meeting a time-traveling woman who seemed to know the course of history made Tong Cheng'er less relaxed than she appeared on the surface.
She was still very nervous.
When Ru Xue saw Tong Cheng'er approaching, she quickly stepped forward and asked, "Madam, did she not do anything to you?"
Tong Cheng'er shook her head: "I didn't do anything, just said some boring nonsense, it really wasted my time."
Ru Xue said with relief, "It's good that she didn't do anything. This concubine has impure thoughts. If you see her again in the future, you must stay far away from her."
Tong Cheng'er nodded: "Yes, I've got it, little housekeeper."
When Tong Cheng'er returned to the banquet, her mind had already wandered far away.
When you have something on your mind, time seems to pass too quickly, and it feels like each day drags on forever.
Finally, the banquet ended. Tong Cheng'er said goodbye to the Third and Fifth Princesses and then quickly left the Prince Gong's Mansion.
She left the mansion and got into the carriage, where Yinzhen was already inside.
Yinzhen could tell at a glance that she was in a bad mood.
He quickly asked, "What's wrong? Did someone bully you?"
Tong Cheng'er shook her head: "Who can bully me? But I do have something to tell you."
Yinzhen nodded: "I know, you mentioned it after breakfast today."
Tong Cheng'er recalled what they had said after breakfast that morning, then shook her head and said, "It's not about that."
Yinzhen asked in confusion, "If it's not this matter, then what is it?"
Tong Cheng'er looked at him and whispered, "I met someone at the banquet today who said you are the future emperor. I was shocked and scolded her for talking nonsense."
Tong Cheng'er looked intently into his eyes and asked, "Tell me, is she talking nonsense?"
Yinzhen was also taken aback upon hearing this.
What else did she say?
Tong Cheng'er continued, "She also said she came from the future..."
After listening to what she said, Yinzhen asked, "Do you think she's lying?"
Tong Cheng'er shook her head: "It doesn't seem like a lie."
Yinzhen said, "What she said isn't entirely wrong, but no one can predict the future. As for whether I will become emperor in the future, that depends on whether I want to become emperor. Cheng'er, do you think I want to?"
Hearing his domineering words, Tong Cheng'er was startled and felt a sense of being bewitched by him. She slowly nodded: "I think you want to."
Yinzhen smiled and nodded: "Yes, I think so."
Regarding the matter of seizing the throne, Yinzhen's actions were not obvious, but Tong Cheng'er could sense it. However, the two of them tacitly kept quiet about it. Now, however, they have made it clear.
