Chapter 3 Chen Mansheng
Chen Mansheng appeared in front of her, with beautiful features, dressed in green, full of righteousness and tenacity, like the eldest sister in the fairy tale novels that Ling Qingyan read.
"Princess Tangning, thank you so much for today." Chen Mansheng saluted her, his eyes burning with genuine gratitude.
Ling Qingyan quickly helped her up, "Miss Chen, there's no need to be so polite. Just call me Qingyan. Miss Chen, are you unwilling to marry General Ji?"
Ling Qingyan asked knowingly.
"Well, I don't want to." Chen Mansheng said.
"Why not?" Ling Qingyan wanted to know more about Chen Mansheng's thoughts.
"Why would you agree?" Chen Mansheng's eyes were clear as she smiled gently. "Because I'm a woman, because my parents are both dead and I'm left alone, so I have to find a man to compensate me? And a man I don't even know well?"
"I don't think this is right, Your Highness."
Birds are flying in the sky and flowers are blooming beside the palace road.
"I can overturn my father's case with my own ability. I also want there to be fewer unjust, false and wrong cases in this world. I don't want to be trapped in the backyard, not at all." Chen Mansheng's eyes were shining with stars.
"So, Your Highness, I am really grateful to you. No matter what the reason, you helped me. Otherwise, even though I didn't want to, I seemed to have no way." Chen Mansheng laughed sarcastically.
Something seemed to be beating in Ling Qingyan's heart.
Yes, this is the heroine she needs to help. She has her own thoughts and ambitions, and wants to use her abilities to make a name for herself. With such a tenacious person, it is no wonder that the system says that if she continues according to the original plot, she will only end up self-destructing.
The predetermined script of this world was not friendly to her, so she developed a sense of self-rescue and was pulled over, right?
"Chen Mansheng." Ling Qingyan smiled at her with her eyes curved. "You will definitely be like your name, growing freely in the wild."
It is my mission to help you escape the established plot and get everything you want.
Chen Mansheng didn't know why, but she felt that Princess Tangning was very kind. Maybe it was because she looked very approachable, or maybe it was because she suddenly appeared when she didn't know what to do, or maybe it was her most sincere blessing to her.
"Princess."
"Um?"
"It's so kind of you."
“It should be.”
Ling Qingyan accompanied Chen Mansheng all the way to the palace gate, and they talked a lot.
Chen Mansheng wanted to be a female official. It’s not that there were no female officials in Daling, but there were very few of them. Not only were there few, but their official positions were also low. Currently, the highest-ranking female official was only of the fifth rank, and there was only one of the fifth rank.
Moreover, the examination for female officials is extremely strict. Not only are they required to have extremely high academic knowledge, but they must also have some attainments in martial arts. Over the years, a group of civil servants headed by the Grand Tutor have drawn up the examination papers, which are then reviewed by His Majesty.
Therefore, many children from aristocratic families would compete to be the study companions of the princes and princesses, just to be able to enter the palace and listen to the lessons of Mu Xianzhi, the Grand Tutor.
Chen Mansheng is no exception.
In the original storyline, Chen Mansheng became Princess Zhaoqing's study partner. However, Princess Zhaoqing was unruly and willful, and she would either beat or scold Chen Mansheng, a helpless study partner.
Since Ling Qingyan is here, she will not allow such a thing to happen!
"Mansheng, be my study partner!" Ling Qingyan took the initiative to speak.
"Your Highness, I'm telling you this because you asked me about my future plans, so I'm telling you the truth. But I don't want to cause you any trouble because of me. If you don't want to attend classes with the other princesses and princes, then don't go. It's okay, I can do it on my own."
Chen Mansheng didn't want to cause any trouble to Princess Tangning because of himself.
Ling Qingyan is not the emperor's biological daughter, but she is favored by the emperor, so she has been subject to many rumors. Most of the time, she stays in her own palace and is taught alone by the teacher. She does not attend the tutor's lessons with other princes and princesses.
"Oh, no!" Ling Qingyan put her hand on Chen Mansheng's shoulder, "You forgot Mansheng, I like General Ji. The war in the south has ended. I heard that the Crown Prince would sometimes attend Tutor Mu's class. General Ji used to be the Crown Prince's study partner, so I think General Ji should go a few times as well."
Ling Qingyan acted like a little girl talking about her lover.
"Besides, Mansheng, I've already died once. Before, my mother passed away, and I was so upset that I jumped into the lake. Fortunately, a maid rescued me. I was in a coma for three days and had a close call with death. I've come to terms with it and don't care what those people think or say about me."
Ling Qingyan smiled brightly, walked a few steps toward the palace gate, then turned around and spread her hands.
Sunshine stood behind her.
"There is no hurdle that is insurmountable. I don't have it, and neither do you."
"I will get better and better, and so will you."
The sunlight penetrated Ling Qingyan's pink gauze skirt, as if the gauze skirt was shining through, reflecting the girl's skin and illuminating the road ahead of Chen Mansheng.
Beautiful, optimistic, dazzling, bright and confident.
Ling Zhuoan thought that his imperial sister, whom he had only paid little attention to, seemed different.
Ling Zhuoan's sudden appearance made Ling Qingyan's alarm bells ring.
Before Ling Zhuo'an could come over, she hurriedly trotted over to Chen Mansheng, tried her best to put on a sincere smile, and greeted him, "Why are you here, my royal brother?"
Ling Zhuoan is also one of the male protagonists.
But please don't come here to find the heroine.
Ling Qingyan held the heroine's hand tightly.
Ling Zhuoan noticed her nervous expression. Although he didn't know why she was so nervous to protect the orphan of the Chen family behind her, he didn't care too much.
"Father is looking for you."
Ling Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief imperceptibly.
"Mansheng, go home. I'll ask Liuyun to accompany you. I'll come to play with you another day." Ling Qingyan quickly sent Chen Mansheng to the carriage.
Ling Zhuoan glanced over there, and Ling Qingyan immediately blocked his sight, standing on tiptoe, and a pair of beautiful eyes flashed in front of him.
"Royal brother, let's go find father." Ling Qingyan was very well-behaved.
"OK."
The two walked side by side on the palace road.
【System system! 】
【(Yawns) What's wrong, my dear little host? 】
[What is the dark value of the Crown Prince? ]
Ling Zhuoan is Ling Qingyan's royal brother, an older brother, and easier to approach. He also seems to be nice to her, so it would be most appropriate to start clearing the dark value from him.
【Eighty percent, host.】
[??? No, why is it taller than Ji Yanxing? Why? Do you have any reason?]
[Well... some male protagonists grow up to be bad because of their childhood experiences, while others are just bad. But as to what their specific experiences are, who is bad because of their experiences, and who is just bad is unclear. It's up to the host to figure it out. After all, this is not a normal romance novel...]
[But if you, host, are asking about various gameplay methods and the male protagonists' XP, I do know a lot and would be happy to answer your questions.]
[Stop! I don’t need it! ! !]
Ling Qingyan no longer wanted to talk to this pornographic system.
She'd better rely on herself.
"Brother, how are you feeling lately?"
Ling Qingyan gave a very unremarkable opening speech.
"The imperial sister likes Ji Yanxing?" Ling Zhuoan's sudden question caught Ling Qingyan off guard.
