The secondary task of Han Qiumiao's visit today was to persuade Zhou Xingyun to break off the engagement and ask him to tell the Empress Dowager that he did not want to be the consort. However, Han Qiumi never imagined that Zhou Xingyun was such a shameless person...
Why is Zhou Xingyun said to be shameless? That's because Zhou Xingyun knew that there was a group of officials' children snooping outside the house, but he still uttered arrogant words and absolutely shouted that he would not marry her. He looked disgusted and refused to marry her, as if she was Han Qiumiao.
He is a plague god, whoever he marries will be unlucky.
In other words, Han Qiumiao wanted to break off the engagement, but she was unwilling to break off the engagement in this way, just like Han Qiumiao, who no one cared about.
Han Qiumiao could guarantee that when the officials' children outside the family returned home, they would be jealous and tell their elders how Zhou Xingyun opposed, resented and resisted marrying her today.
As a result, rumors that Princess Yongming is coquettish and rude, and that no one dares to want or marry her, will soon spread throughout the capital.
Everyone knows that marrying a wife makes a princess, and plain land gives birth to a duke. What's more, Han Qiumiao was not willing to marry Zhou Xingyun in the first place. Now that Her Royal Highness the Princess came to visit in person, Zhou Xingyun naturally showed his heart with fear and fear, and was willing to cooperate with Han Qiumiao to persuade the Queen Mother to withdraw from the marriage.
Zhou Xingyun's retreat made Han Qiumiao very embarrassed, especially the gangster's last sentence, "I won't marry you even if I kill you", which made her so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven...
"Zhou Xingyun! Don't take it out of context! The purpose of my coming today is not to discuss marriage with you!"
"What? Apart from our marriage, do we have anything else to talk about? No, to be precise, is there anything more important than our marriage?" Zhou Xingyun tilted his head with a confused look on his face, and muttered stupidly.
His appearance immediately made Xu Zhiqian and the other girls want to laugh.
Admittedly, when Han Qiumiao saw Zhou Xingyun's ignorant and cute expression, he felt inexplicably angry and wanted to knock this shameless kid over with his fist.
"Resigning from the post of Prince's Young Master, you are no longer allowed to be friends with His Highness, and you will join me as a disciple of the First Grade Academy. I would like to express my sincere words to my mother, and I will make you the Minister of Secretariat." Han Qiumiao said meticulously. Since Zhou Xingyun wanted to get straight to the point, she simply said it.
After all, we are all smart people. Instead of wasting time trying to figure out each other's intentions, it is better to clarify the bottom line and settle the matter at one price.
"Sister, are you kidding me?" Zhou Xingyun dug his ears in shock, wondering if he was hallucinating. Does the eldest princess want to recommend him to be the minister? If he can succeed, he will definitely be flattered, and he will be much more domineering than his crown prince.
…
What is Shangshu Ling? The head of the six ministries! The head of hundreds of officials! A prime minister-level existence.
"I keep my word and never joke with others." Han Qiumiao replied categorically. She could first appeal to the Queen Mother and obtain the approval of the Queen Mother, and then Zhou Xingyun would resign as the Crown Prince's Young Master.
Han Qiumiao has always grasped the situation very accurately. She already understood why her mother suddenly dismissed the Minister of Household Affairs and promoted Zhou Xingyun to the position.
The confrontation between the two factions in the DPRK and China has reached its limit, and the situation in the court is on the verge of collapse. The Empress Dowager can only maintain the situation by taking advantage of the rise of new forces.
The Empress Dowager appointed Zhou Xingyun to be the Shangshu Ling and take charge of the six ministries to weaken the prime minister's power. This was definitely more effective than the Crown Prince's Shaofu. It was the best proof of the rise of the third force.
It is true that from Zhou Xingyun's point of view, he was very happy to agree to Han Qiumiao, take charge of the six departments, and become our minister. The problem is... this is just Han Qiumiao's wishful thinking.
Not to mention whether the Empress Dowager would agree, even if she did agree to Han Qiumiao and make him a minister, Zhou Xingyun could not abandon little Han Feng...
You know, his saint plan is more important than getting promoted and making a fortune. If Han Feng cannot be cultivated into a monogamous, modern, four-pronged young man, and this boy becomes an emperor and forgets his friends, wouldn’t it be a great absurdity in the world!
Therefore, for the sake of the happiness of his good brother and his own sexual happiness, Zhou Xingyun refused Han Qiumiao's kindness: "Your Highness the Princess's kindness, I accepted it. As the saying goes, do things down-to-earth and be a down-to-earth person. I have not yet done anything for the people of Li.
How can you get paid without merit if you do things?"
"This is my final bottom line! As long as you agree, I will follow my mother's will and marry you as my wife. Otherwise..."
"I'll go...then I can't agree!" Zhou Xingyun didn't wait for Han Qiumiao to finish her words. After hearing that she was willing to marry him, he quickly voted no.
When he heard that Han Qiumiao was willing to compromise and marry him, he looked so frightened that he almost didn't make the children snooping inside and outside the house burst into laughter. Anyway, Xu Zhiqian couldn't help laughing...
"You! Good...very good. Since Mr. Zhou is toasting and not eating the fine wine, don't blame me for the death!" Han Qiumiao clenched her fists and shouted angrily. Zhou Xingyun's words were undoubtedly a naked humiliation to her.
"Don't you, Your Highness, hate me to the core? If I don't marry you, it will be better for everyone. There is really no need for us to fight to the death!" Zhou Xingyun couldn't understand. He had agreed to find the Queen Mother to remarry. Why was Han Qiumiao still so aggressive? Did she really plan to do so?
Marry him?
You know, his official residence is already chaotic enough. If there is another eldest princess who likes to be hegemonic, and the daughters are jealous and vying for the main wife, it would be strange if a world war doesn't break out in his family.
Therefore, although Han Qiumiao is very beautiful, Zhou Xingyun must think twice before marrying her into his family...
"Hehehe...hehehahahaha...it's a fight to the death!" Han Qiumiao laughed angrily, and suddenly looked at Zhou Xingyun with sharp eyes and said: "I, Han Qiumiao, are determined to marry you!"
"Why?" Zhou Xingyun couldn't help but laugh and cry. In the past, it was always him who didn't follow the rules. Why is it now the princess's turn to go crazy?
"The day I enter the house will be the time for your Zhou family to clean up the house!" Han Qiumiao glared at the little cute thing, then snatched the tea cup she was still holding in both hands, smashed it to the ground, and then his head
Walked out of the living room without looking back: "Xiao Shuang, go back to the palace!"
"Hey! Princess, you have something to say! Can't you please stop doing this! We are from the same family, so why hurt each other?" Zhou Xingyun finally understood Han Qiumiao's intention. She wanted to harm herself by one thousand, kill eight hundred enemies, and marry into the Zhou family.
Destruction, relying on the identity of the eldest princess, to clean up Xu Zhiqian and other daughters.
You must know that Han Qiumiao is a relative of the emperor, and when she marries Zhou Xingyun, she will naturally become the main wife. She wants to find Xu Zhiqian, Wei Suyao, Mu Hanxing and other women displeasing to her, so she has ten thousand ways to drive them out of the house.
Because of this, Zhou Xingyun burst into tears and refused to marry Han Qiumiao.
Mo Nianxi watched Han Qiumiao leave in a hurry, and couldn't help but hold Zhou Xingyun's arm and act coquettishly: "Hey, she wants to clean us up, what do you think we should do?"
"What can I do? I'm desperate too!" Zhou Xingyun was really confused by Han Qiumiao. The princess came to his house today just to tell him that we will never be finished in the future? It's so flattering.
To be honest, not only Zhou Xingyun is confused now, but even Han Qiumiao doesn't know what she is doing. She originally wanted to negotiate, but Zhou Xingyun's witty words made her angry and hurt her internally without saying a few words, resulting in a scene.
Parted unhappy.
Han Qiumiao and Zhou Xingyun were facing each other tit for tat. All the officials' children gathered around the door of the living room to spy. Only Han Shuang, the two well-behaved babies, put their hands on their knees and squatted by the flower bed to look at the water drops until someone called her, "Little Dai Niu"
Then he came back to his senses and followed Han Qiumiao away like a little tail.
"Return?" Han Shuangshuang looked at Han Qiumiao in confusion, because they walked out of Zhou Xingyun's mansion and did not go towards the imperial city.
"Go to Juxianlou."
Today's matter is not over yet. Since Zhou Xingyun does not know how to praise, she, Han Qiumiao, will not be merciful. She will no longer sit back and watch Zhou Xingyun grow stronger. She must find ways to ruin his reputation...
Han Qiumiao took Han Shuangshuang to Juxian Building to discuss something with Jin Run'er. Although the Jin family was pardoned by the Empress Dowager and the whole family had a good death, they lived in the imperial city and more or less had to look at her appearance.
Han Qiumiao and Han Shuang were about to leave the official residence area of the capital when a greeting suddenly came from their ears...
"See Princess Yongming." Qin Beiyan and Wei Suyao happened to be back from practicing medicine and were going back to Zhou Mansion for dinner.
"No...hum, unmarried, unruly, immoral, such a shameless woman." Han Qiumiao turned around reflexively and said to Qin Beiyan, "No etiquette." However, before the word of etiquette was uttered, he saw Wei Su standing next to him.
remote.
As the founder of Yipin Academy, the mastermind behind the selection of concubines for the crown prince, and the gatekeeper of the Chu Xiu Palace, Han Qiumiao could tell at a glance that Wei Suyao had been exposed.
As for who blasphemed the beautiful woman, there is no need to ask, Han Qiumiao also knows.
When she was talking to Zhou Xingyun today, she felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange. To put it bluntly, Zhou Xingyun's words and deeds were more proud and confident than before, and there was a little more joy between his eyebrows. It turned out to be the result of bathing in the tenderness of women and tasting the joy of men and women.
of pleasure.
"..."
In response to Han Qiumiao's ridicule, Wei Suyao could only choose to remain silent. After all, their identities were very different, and what Han Qiumiao said was true. She was indeed unmarried and violated common etiquette. Wei Suyao was very fortunate that her master was in retreat.
I have no time to meddle in her business, otherwise if her master knows about it, the situation may become very bad...
However, despite being unmarried and unfaithful, Wei Suyao had no regrets in his heart and willingly entrusted his life to Zhou Xingyun.
"Don't be too happy too early. As the eldest princess of a country, I will not allow a woman like you to step into the Zhou family's door!" Han Qiumiao seemed to have read through Wei Suyao's thoughts, knowing that this woman loved Zhou Xingyun to death, so she couldn't help saying coldly.
relatively.
Wei Suyao was born into a poor family and was not the same as Zhou Xingyun, so why should he marry into the Zhou family and be on an equal footing with her? From now on, Han Qiumiao would try every means to disrupt Zhou Xingyun's backyard and make him uneasy!
"As his first woman, I will not allow you to destroy the harmony of the Zhou family." Wei Suyao was uncharacteristically heroic and glared at Han Qiumiao.
Wei Suyao was not arrogant because of favors. She relied on Zhou Xingyun to favor her before she and Han Qiumiao went head-to-head. The blond girl obviously sensed from Han Qiumiao's words that she was trying to disturb the harmony of the Zhou family.
