Chapter 521: It’s Not Okay to Be a Coward
Fu Zhaoning was a little confused.
"The business on the first floor is so prosperous, will they still reserve a private room for the Shen family?"
"Although the Autumn Prayer Festival in the past was not as lively as this year, it was basically full, but there will still be private rooms reserved on the first floor. Because the Huo family will keep two rooms for emergencies, and at most they will give up their own room."
"It's so lively this year, probably because the eldest princess is coming back to Beijing."
There are so many people——
They were feeling a little tired after being crowded together for the whole morning.
Just as Fu Zhaoning and the others were about to enter, someone squeezed in from behind.
"Get out of the way! Don't block me from eating the Thousand Snow Mushrooms!"
"Miss, be careful."
Eleven immediately protected Fu Zhaoning, while Thirteen blocked his opponent with his backhand.
Because the group of people were pushing each other quite fiercely, Fu Zhaoning was almost pushed against the door frame by them. Xiao Qin fell to the side. Fortunately, Baihu supported her, otherwise she would definitely fall down.
Thirteen's backhand pushed the other person, causing him to stagger and bump into his companion.
They became angry all of a sudden, and they originally wanted to rush in, but now they all stopped, turned around, and glared at Fu Zhaoning and the others fiercely.
Eleven blocked Fu Zhaoning behind him, not wanting her to face this group of people directly.
There were about six or seven people on the other side, all young and middle-aged. Two or three of them were fat and big-eared, and looked tall and strong.
When several people stand together like this, there is a strong sense of oppression.
If an ordinary person saw a group of people like them, he would have been scared and quickly retreated.
"Boy, you are so bold! You blocked our way and you dare to push others?"
A man in scarlet brocade clothes looked at them sideways and emitted a smell when he spoke.
Thirteen couldn't help but take a step back.
"Who pushed you just now? Stand up, or I'm going to cut off that arm and feed it to the dogs!"
He spit out another sentence.
"You were walking so roughly and bumped into us first." Baihu stood in front of Shisan.
He is from Dahe, and he speaks Dahe's language, preventing Thirteen and the others from speaking. This way, the other party would not instantly think that they were from outside the area.
But it seems that the other party is really used to being arrogant. Even though he knows that Baihu is a local, he has no intention of giving in.
"You dogs are blocking our way. Pushing you away is the least we can do. How dare you complain?"
The other party said this in a very arrogant manner.
Baihu stared at the other person and said, "Be a reasonable person."
Because he had been accompanying his master outside in recent years to find doctors and medicine, he was not very familiar with the people in the imperial capital, and he didn't know who these people were.
But the Shen family has never been afraid of anyone in the past. Besides, they have to be reasonable, right?
"Hahaha!" The man threw his head back and laughed, as if he had heard a particularly funny joke.
He turned to his companions and said to them, "Did you hear what he said?"
"My Lord, he is saying that people should be reasonable." Someone next to him said to him.
"Be reasonable? You're telling me to be reasonable? That's hilarious! You seem to be a bunch of country bumpkins. You don't know my identity, do you? You don't know your identities, do you? Any one of us can crush them to death. Be reasonable?"
"Come here, boy, let me tell you, this is Marquis Ping'en, do you understand?"
Fu Zhaoning didn't think about going forward right away. There was nothing wrong in letting Baihu and the others protect him in this situation.
But she lowered her voice and asked Xiao Qin from behind, "Who is Ping Enhou? Is he very powerful?"
"Miss," Xiao Qin's face was a little unhappy, "Marquis Ping'en is hereditary. The first Marquis Ping'en was the cousin of the late emperor, and he is considered a very senior member of the royal family. Marquis Ping'en's sister is Queen Min in the palace now."
"Favored?"
"Extremely favored."
His ancestors were already royal relatives and nobles, and now there is a favorite concubine in the family. No wonder Marquis Ping'en can be so arrogant.
They were talking in low voices in the back, and the head shopkeeper on the first floor came running over hurriedly after hearing the waiter's call for help.
As expected of the chief shopkeeper of the first building in the imperial capital, he looked more imposing than the average wealthy lord in his brown brocade robe.
As soon as he arrived here, he quickly bowed to Marquis Ping'en.
"The Marquis is here? And the princes and young masters are here too? The Thousand Snow Mushrooms will be ready soon, so please hurry upstairs and don't bother with these people. Be in a good mood, and you will enjoy the wine and food later."
He just coaxed Ping Enhou and others.
The other second brother was speaking quietly and making gestures to Baihu and the others.
"You guys better get out of here first. If you continue to make trouble, you might suffer more than just a loss."
I'm afraid I won't even die.
"We're going to go in and eat." Bai Hu said expressionlessly, "We're not leaving."
Their young lady has already been wronged, and now she has to avoid these people and find another place to eat. Isn't that even more aggrieved?
The streets were full of people, and we had to squeeze in to find another restaurant, and there might not be a seat available when we got there.
"Oh, sir, please listen to my advice. This is for your own good." The second brother was anxious.
Fu Zhaoning saw that the chief shopkeeper and the waiter seemed to be doing this for their own good. After all, they might not dare to offend Marquis Ping En. He sighed and said, "Forget it, let's go."
Xiaoqin was a little shocked.
"Miss?"
The lady is the Princess of Zhaoguojun, why do you give in directly when faced with such things?
When she went out with Yu Yuwei before, Yu Yuwei was just a cousin of the Shen family, and the Yu family was just a wealthy family, so Yu Yuwei was already very arrogant.
When faced with this situation, Yu Yuwei would directly report Shen Xuan's identity.
Now Fu Zhaoning, who is the princess, actually chose to give in!
So, Prince Jun really didn't treat her as a princess, right? Did the people in Prince Jun's mansion in Zhaoguo not protect her?
Xiaoqin felt sorry for her young lady again.
Baihu and the others obeyed Fu Zhaoning's orders.
But just as they turned to leave, Marquis Ping'en stopped them with another strange laugh.
"What, you want to leave even after I pushed you?"
Baihu's expression turned cold, "What else do you want?"
"What? Didn't I tell you, whoever pushed you, stand up and I'll just cut off one arm!"
Thirteen clenched his fists.
Fu Zhaoning sighed. "What should I do? I want to be a coward who doesn't cause any trouble, but no one will give me the chance."
Xiaoqin, "Ah?"
"My Lord, please calm down. Let us give you a jar of good wine and you can let them go. This will be a little face for our boss. After all, our First Floor is a restaurant and it will be hard to do business if blood is seen."
The head shopkeeper secretly groaned inwardly and bent down even more.
"Who wants your wine? Do you think we men can't afford good wine?" Marquis Ping'en smiled sideways.
