Cen An's feelings towards Princess Xuanyang could no longer be simply described as admiration.
This princess either stays indoors for ten days or half a month without making any noise, or causes trouble as soon as she goes out. Not one of the things she does is small, but all of them are enough to make people stare in amazement.
He didn't want to see the princess, but Song Junzhan insisted on going and insisted on dragging him to see the princess for a follow-up visit.
Zi Yue was also very enthusiastic and just carried him away.
Xiao Li said he didn't want to see anyone, so it didn't matter who came. The three of them were stopped at the door.
"The princess has ordered that she not see anyone."
Cen An had originally refused to see her, but now he was rebelling: "I'm a doctor, here to see the princess."
If you don't want to see me, I must.
The doorman glanced at him sideways, arrogant and cold: "I won't see anyone."
Even if you are the descendant of a miracle doctor, you have no privileges.
Cen An gnashed his teeth in anger and said to the other two, "Go away. The princess won't see you."
Zi Yue glared at him and said, "Shut up and stop making noise."
Song Junzhan stepped forward and handed over the letter he had written long ago: "Please pass this letter to the princess, and by the way, convey that I will be waiting at this door to be summoned."
The concierge looked at Cen An, then at Song Junzhan, and nodded: "Wait a moment."
Xiao Li was playing chess with himself, but he wasn't actually looking at the chessboard at all. He was playing in a mess and was lost in thought.
The doorman handed over the letter and said it was written by Song Junzhan.
Xiao Li slowly came back to his senses and paused for a long time before raising his hand: "Give it to me."
He unfolded the letter slowly and when he saw the contents inside, his nonchalant eyes gradually brightened up and a playful arc appeared at the corners of his lips.
"It really is timely."
Seeing Xiao Li's smile, the concierge added what Song Junzhan had asked him to say: "Young Master Song is waiting at the door for the princess to summon him, along with Doctor Cen and a young master."
Xiao Li nodded: "Let them in."
After the doorman left, Xiao Li said to Lan Yue, "Prepare some refreshments, and bring some more dried fruits and candied fruits."
Lan Yue: "I'll go right away."
Xiao Li had them brought to the study, which was heated with floor heating and filled with snacks.
Cen An was shocked when he saw it. Wow, this treatment is unprecedented!
"Jun Zhan pays homage to the princess."
Song Junzhan walked in front and was the first to bow. Even if Cen An didn't like it, he would not be rude: "Your humble servant greets the princess."
Zi Yue followed Cen An, and the moment he saw the familiar face, his smile reached the back of his ears, but he managed to hold back and not shout.
Xiao Li: "Sit down."
"Thank you, Princess."
The three of them sat down separately. Song Junzhan asked about Xiao Li's health and injuries, while Cen An lowered his head to drink tea. For the first time, he felt like a distinguished guest in the princess's mansion. It was really fresh.
But when he turned around, why was the snack in front of Zi Yue more abundant than his?
Especially the nine-grid box, which was obviously given to him specially.
Why?
Zi Yue was clever and knew Cen An's defense was broken when he saw his expression.
It's his fault! He said bad things about the beautiful sister, so the beautiful sister must hate him!
Xiao Li withdrew his gaze from Zi Yue, holding the letter between his slender fingertips.
Song Junzhan really knew how to seize the opportunity. She beat Marquis Xuanping the night before yesterday and he just returned home yesterday, but today he brought the matter of Marquis Xuanping and the Wang family to her.
Although she didn't care, it happened to solve her confusion.
Wang Wanqing couldn't understand why her grandfather and father insisted on making her marry He Chengfeng, and she couldn't understand why her grandfather had to pay 30,000 taels to help Marquis Xuanping even though she was bullied.
What Song Junzhan gave Xiao Li was the answer.
People will not be nice to another person for no reason, especially these big families. What makes them make a firm choice is not emotion, but profitability.
Wang Wanqing's elder brother, Wang Shiyao, was the prefect of Dingchuan. He embezzled public funds and squandered them, causing a deficit of several million taels and causing a big mess. The Wang family could make up for the money, but the case was first submitted to the Ministry of Revenue.
The Minister of Revenue, Wang Chengyun, was a meticulous, stubborn and hard-headed person who gave no face to the Wang family at all.
And this Wang Chengyun is the brother-in-law of Marquis Xuanping.
If Wang Shiyao can return safely from Dingchuan, he will definitely be another great help to the Wang family, and the Wang family will naturally protect him.
He Chengfeng was originally among the candidates that Madam Wang was choosing as a husband for her daughter, and this kind of thing happened. Marriage is the fastest way to bring the two families closer together, so he became the best choice.
Although the title of Marquis Xuanping was hereditary, no generals emerged within two generations, and the marquisate fell into decline.
Marquis Xuanping would be delighted to be able to join the Wang family.
What the Wang family wanted was to settle the accounts, rescue the people, and at the same time covet the title of Marquis Xuanping.
This is why, when the situation had become hopeless, the Wang family father and son still wanted to help Marquis Xuanping and even offered to pay for it.
Wang Shiyao's matter has not been completely settled yet, so they cannot make enemies with Marquis Xuanping.
In this marriage, Wang Wanqing was a pawn from beginning to end, a pawn who knew nothing about it.
Even the only and most beloved daughter is insignificant compared to the son and the family's future.
Xiao Li asked Song Junzhan: "I'll give you a chance. How confident are you?"
Song Junzhan smiled calmly: "Everything will be accomplished, and every action will be fulfilled."
"Okay." She smiled: "Let me see what the young master can do."
After saying that, he threw the letter into the brazier and burned it without saying another word, as if he didn't care that much about it.
As for whether to tell Wang Wanqing, she didn't have that much free time. It was someone else's family affair, and how they used it was their business. There was no need for her to seek justice or sow discord.
She took a sip of tea and waved to Ziyue: "Come here."
Zi Yue hurried over: "Beauty...Princess..."
He subconsciously wanted to call the beautiful sister, but suddenly realized that the person opposite him was of noble status, so he quickly changed his words and smiled shyly.
Xiao Li couldn't help laughing: "Beauty Princess, you are the first one to call me that. You have good taste."
Zi Yue scratched his head shyly and said, "Princess, I didn't realize you were of noble status before. I apologize for any offense. Please forgive me."
After saying this, he bowed and apologized in a proper manner.
Xiao Li couldn't help teasing him because of his playful behavior: "Does this mean that I really want to punish you?"
Zi Yue replied solemnly, "Then please, Princess, punish me to be your vanguard, like a slave, without complaint."
"Hahaha......"
Zi Yue didn't say anything, but Xiao Li was amused to death.
She looked at Song Junzhan and said, "Young Master, how about lending this young man of yours to me for a few days?"
Zi Yue's eyes sparkled: "Princess, I will resign from my job as a waiter immediately and take up the position immediately."
Song Junzhan looked helpless: "Princess, please don't mind him being noisy."
Upon hearing this, Zi Yue immediately walked over to stand next to Xiao Li, with an arrogant attitude of "I am already a member of the princess's mansion", and did not even look at his former boss.
He had inquired about it, and found out that the guards of the beautiful sister's family would be paid ten taels of gold upon taking office, as well as majestic war horses and armor. He was determined to wear them once!
