As evening approaches, it looks like it will snow.
Linghu Lan and Mu Xingzhi were having a small hot pot over a red clay stove.
If you traveled back to ancient times and didn't have hot pot with me, you wouldn't know I'm a black card member of the foodie club.
bling~~
Linghu Lan is living a wonderful life now, with nothing to worry about. The only thing that worries her is Gu Wan'er's marriage.
It's really worrying who will try to steal this golden cabbage, the female lead.
The two were eating when Gu Yanyan came running in, panting.
"Come on, let's have hot pot together."
Gu Yanyan waved her hand and took a breath.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, something terrible has happened! Someone has reported the Princess!"
"Huh? What's going on?"
"Someone has accused the princess of engaging in business without authorization."
Linghu Lan: "..."
Holy crap!
One of the laws of the Great Jing Dynasty was that it prohibited imperial relatives and nobles from engaging in business.
Firstly, the social hierarchy was based on scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants, with commerce being considered a lowly profession. Secondly, this would prevent them from competing with the common people for profits.
But people need to eat, and which royal relative doesn't engage in business indirectly? Even if they don't do it directly, countless businesses are registered under the names of relatives and friends, and it's extremely common for dowries and betrothal gifts to include shops.
If you really look into it, not a single official in the Great Jing Dynasty is clean.
Mu Xingzhi stood up abruptly, "Who reported me?"
"Gu Wan'er!"
Linghu Lan was speechless; the female lead's counterattack was exceptionally fierce!
She's been living too comfortably lately, especially with all the delicious food and beautiful sights around her. She's lost her guard because of all the enjoyment.
When faced with a female lead who has such a strong learning ability, she should actually be more careful.
"I'm going to find my elder brother, the Emperor."
"No need, it's just transferring the shop to my brother's name, it won't have a big impact, but it will be a bit troublesome."
Linghu Lan roughly guessed that Gu Wan'er knew she couldn't hurt her fundamentally; she was just using this incident to disgust herself and let the world laugh at the Chu Princess for being a lowly commoner. That was all.
She needs to quickly find a husband for the female lead so she can participate in the power struggles within the household; otherwise, if something like this happens out of the blue, no one can handle it.
What if the female lead succeeds?
Her money is gone, isn't it?
You can sleep with me if you want, but you absolutely cannot steal my money!
System: Look at the look in my eyes, →_→, a money-grubber in bold capital letters!
...
Gu Wan'er became famous overnight.
He officially broke ties with Linghu Lan: If you won't let me do business, you can forget about doing business openly either.
The Prince of Yong'an's mansion was thrown into complete disarray by Gu Wan'er's sudden outburst.
Prince Yong'an was utterly disappointed because Gu Wan'er's memorial had been secretly slipped inside his own. He hadn't noticed and was now facing attacks from the court officials.
As for marrying Gu Wan'er off? Now, no one even comes to propose marriage, no matter how much they beg. The once highly sought-after girl is now infamous, and that's a terrible feeling.
Gu Wan'er was like a hot potato, causing panic and unease throughout the Yong'an Prince's Mansion.
But Gu Wan'er felt better.
She has nothing to do with this world; what does it matter to her what the world thinks?
Yong'an Prince's Mansion?
The memory of the time she knelt before the palace gates, and the Prince of Yong'an begged for her death in order to save the Yong'an Prince's Mansion, flashed through her mind.
hehe!
She has absolutely no connection to this world; if she does, it's only pain and torment.
From then on.
Gu Wan'er has completely let loose.
The Prince of Yong'an gave up and let her do as she pleased, as long as she didn't do anything too outrageous.
Gu Wan'er sneered inwardly, thinking that this was a right she had fought for.
The deceased Gu Wan'er knew that this was the most unrestrained love, which, after being gradually consumed by selfishness and indifference, turned into complete estrangement.
