Yue Lingwan, who was not selected, was negative for a few days, knowing that the matter was done and those selected beauties were just waiting to enter the palace.
But she will never be able to enter the palace in this life, so she can only find someone to marry.
Yue Lingwan wanted to go to the temple to pray, hoping to find an ideal husband.
Thinking of this, Yue Lingwan told Madam Shen about it, but Madam Shen was afraid that she would be deceived by the scheming scholar and refused to agree.
Yan Bao complained in his heart: "Mom, if you don't let my cousin go, how can she see the true face of that scheming scholar? My cousin saw how shameless he was last time."
If you know what kind of person that scheming scholar is and still fall into his trap, then you are destined to face this disaster. Even if you can avoid it today, what about the future? ] Yan Bao thought, you can't just never go to the temple for the rest of your life, right?
[If she can get over this hurdle, she’ll get over it. If she can’t, that’s her fate!]
Mrs. Shen thought about it and finally changed her mind. She asked Yue Lingwan to go to burn incense. She would not go herself and asked Yan Bao to accompany her. Yan Bao was smart and would definitely not be fooled by that scheming scholar.
On the fifteenth day of the second lunar month, Yan Bao and Yue Lingwan went to burn incense. They came on the first day and came again on the fifteenth.
Half a month apart, Yue Lingwan's mood was very different.
She had entered the palace with great expectations, and now she just wanted to find a suitable husband. She knew that if she returned to Luzhou, she would be arranged to get married, and she hoped to marry someone she liked.
The carriage arrived at the temple, Yan Bao and Yue Lingwan got off the carriage, and a beggar came to pray, dirty and smelly. Yan Bao frowned, and Xu Lingwan couldn't bear it either, so she asked her maid Xiaotong to give him a string of money.
The little beggar's eyes lit up: "Thank you, kind lady Bodhisattva, you will be blessed."
"You're welcome." Yue Lingwan smiled faintly and took Yan Bao to burn incense.
Yan Bao looked at the thoughtful little beggar and smiled: "Boy, if you have any conscience, don't harm my cousin for the sake of that string of money."
This time, the incense burning was quick and some money was donated. Yue Lingwan thought that since it was a rare opportunity for her to get out and there were no elders around, she could take Yan Bao for a walk and see that the stalls looked very busy.
Yan Bao did not refuse and watched her cousin fall into the trap step by step.
There were many interesting things on the stall. Yue Lingwan bought whatever she liked and also bought a wooden bird with movable wings for Yan Bao.
Yan Bao likes it very much.
They strolled around for a while and on their way back to the carriage, they saw someone bullying a little beggar and a scholar.
The string of money in the little beggar's hand was given by Xiaotong.
Yan Bao saw at a glance that the scheming scholar was starting to put on a show.
Yue Lingwan recognized the little beggar who came to her for alms, and a pale-faced scholar, who was elegant and scholarly, and who was clearly a scholar. He bravely stood in front of the little beggar and said, "You are not allowed to hurt him. I won't let you bully the weak."
The hooligans joined the scholar in cursing, "Go away or not? What's wrong with us bullying him? He's a beggar after all."
"Beggars are also human beings. You can't bully them like this." The scholar was indignant: "If you want to bully him, just go through me..."
Before he could finish his words, he was punched and his nose started bleeding.
The scheming scholar even found the angle, which happened to be the direction where Yue Lingwan could see him. He looked so miserable when he was beaten.
No matter how kindhearted the woman was, she would think he was brave and righteous.
Yan Bao secretly gave a thumbs up: [Good acting, overestimating one's own abilities was perfectly executed.]
Looking at the frowning Yue Lingwan, Yan Bao complained in his heart: "My cousin, if you sympathize with a man, you will suffer for your whole life. If you misjudge a man, you will be unlucky for your whole life. If you marry the wrong man, your whole life will be ruined!"
Seeing that Yue Lingwan was indifferent, the scholar felt that it was not enough. He winked at the gangsters, signaling them to continue, no matter how miserable, to establish his lofty image.
The scoundrel understood and grabbed Zhao Zhi's collar with a fierce look and dragged him up. "You're a good-for-nothing scholar. Who do you think you are? Do you believe I can kill you with one punch?"
"You...how dare you do this under the feet of the emperor!" Zhao Zhi looked towards Yan Bao and the others. Seeing the young lady from other place who he had set his eyes on walking towards him, he couldn't help but get excited.
Here it comes, the little white rabbit has taken the bait.
As long as she is willing to make a move, I can make her fall into my sweet talk.
After learning from the little beggar that he had an accent from another place, he went to trouble the driver again and took out the driver's words, saying that he was the cousin of Prime Minister Shen's mansion and asked the stinky beggar to get out of here as far as possible.
The driver was so stupid that he didn't even know what he was being tricked into doing.
When Zhao Zhi heard that she was the niece of Prime Minister Shen, wasn't that the unsuccessful concubine?
If the store is not selected, it must be matched.
And he's still frustrated. Isn't this a good opportunity for him to take advantage of the situation?
If he could establish a relationship with Prime Minister Shen, it wouldn't be long before he became an official in the court.
Thinking of this, Zhao Zhi was so excited and nervous, as if he saw a bright future beckoning him.
Yan Bao, watching Yue Lingwan walking towards the scheming scholar, was nearly frightened to death by her: [Cousin, wake up! Don't be fooled! They've set you up!]
[This is a hell of a place, a hell of a place! This is not a place of happiness, don't be foolish!]
Looking at the scheming scholar who was almost unable to contain his smug joy, excitement, and the look of success on his face, Yan Bao rolled his eyes: "Hmph, don't be so complacent. If I piss you off, you'll suffer."
Yue Lingwan had no idea that Yan Bao was almost worried to death because of her small action. She confirmed with her eyes that the scholar in front of her who was beaten and bleeding from the nose was the one she met last time.
