I'm not willing to be a cannon fodder for the female supporting role anymore
Chapter 50 Cannon Fodder Princess vs Handsome Young General 05
"The princess sent someone to invite them. How dare they tell the truth when they come in today's situation?"
Yueying didn't expect that no matter what she said, the heroine would be able to fight back.
"Then what do you want?"
"Divide Miss Pei's dowry with the two young ladies' dowry equally, and then take it away."
Yueying's mouth twitched. She really wanted to throw the heroine out. It took a lot of effort to suppress the impulse. She kept telling herself not to gossip for the sake of Qingqing's wedding.
After all, Li Yuan was a military general, and he became angry. He wanted to order people to kick out this unreasonable person. But then he realized that this female doctor was the one who took care of General Rong in the army, so he gritted his teeth and held back his anger.
With the consent of the young couple, Yueying took out Pei Qingqing's dowry list. Everyone saw that the dowry prepared by the Pei family was not too much, so it shouldn't have caused such a mess today, and they all whispered about it.
Chen Qiyu frowned and saw a maid holding another list. He snatched it and took a quick glance. They were all valuable jewelry.
"You are trying to deceive us with these coarse things. Please look, my lords. The items on this list are the real dowry. They are all the finest jewelry."
She stood in the middle of the yard with a righteous look on her face. If the right and wrong were not what she thought, Yueying would have thought that this heroine was upholding justice.
"What? Young lady, you mean, if I become friends with Qingqing, I should not only give her some makeup, but also take care of her sister and cousin as well?"
"Pfft~"
Yueying was speechless because of the heroine's random bites, and then she heard someone laughing out loud. Yueying looked in the direction of the sound, and it turned out that it was Pei Qingqing who laughed herself. The corners of her mouth twitched slightly, but she still reminded herself to be dignified and dignified, and barely managed her desire to roll her eyes, still with a calm and indifferent attitude, and spoke with neither light nor heavy pronunciation.
"Today's incident will be treated as a small show for fun. Let's continue watching the ceremony."
Chen Qiyu didn't look embarrassed, she just stood there blankly, opened her mouth but said nothing. All the guests were seated to eat, and no one paid any attention to her.
Yueying glanced at Rong Shengan who was following her, and quickly sorted out the original plot. Pei Qingqing later married a young doctor in the Imperial Hospital, and it was only mentioned briefly, without today's incident.
However, in the original text, Qingqing got married after the princess died, so because I helped Pei Qingqing learn medicine, I met Li Yuan. Did this change the plot?
Judging from what happened today, the heroine was probably used by the two girls from the Pei family. But then again, shouldn’t the heroine still be at the frontier?
"General Rong, I heard that you were injured. Are you feeling better now?"
Yueying thought about it and walked towards her seat. Suddenly, Chen Qiyu's voice sounded behind her.
Rong Sheng'an did not answer immediately, but pulled out a chair for Yueying, helped her sit down, and then turned around.
"Thank you for your concern, Military Doctor Chen. I am fine."
It has been half a month since he returned to Beijing. Based on the clues provided by the prince, he has been planning and investigating the bandits.
Apart from seeing the princess at the banquet, this was only the second time he met the princess. Rong Shengan didn't want to waste any extra thoughts on useless personnel matters.
When Chen Qiyu saw that the man she loved so much was too stingy to even glance at her, she immediately stood aside with tears in her eyes.
How could this happen? As soon as she heard that General Rong was attacked and injured at the border, she rushed to the capital without stopping, but Rong Shengan was so indifferent to her.
"Princess likes sweet food, how about sweet and sour pork ribs?"
Rong Shengan picked up a piece of pork ribs, suspended it above the plate in front of Yueying, and put it down involuntarily. Yueying tilted her head, and the next second she realized that the male protagonist was asking for her consent.
"it is good."
He carefully put down the ribs, picked up another piece and put it on Yueying's plate.
The chef’s cooking skills are quite good. Yueying ate two pieces of spare ribs carefully, with her cheeks puffed up, making her look as cute as a little squirrel.
I just wanted to eat more after finishing it. I looked around and saw that the people at the main table were probably afraid to eat as much as they wanted because they were eating with the princess. They also had to maintain their image...
Rong Sheng'an kept staring at the princess, taking in all her emotional changes. He stared at the sweet and sour spare ribs, sometimes pursing his lips slightly, and sometimes letting out a resentful breath.
"Is it tasty?"
Although the movement was small, Rong Sheng'an still felt it, so he moved closer to Yueying and asked in a low voice.
"good to eat."
Yueying looked at it with sparkling eyes and whispered.
That's too sensible.
General Rong picked up two more pieces for Yueying, then put several pieces on his own plate. He then slightly pushed the plate towards Yueying and continued to speak in a low voice.
"Sweets, just eat these, don't be greedy."
"Hmm..."
Yueying squinted her eyes while eating and made her own plans. She turned around and asked who the chef was from and whether she could hire him to come to the princess's mansion.
Yueying was so mesmerized by the sweet and sour pork ribs that she didn't realize that many people around her were watching her and Rong Shengan's little interaction.
The princess who had been so dignified and quiet just now turned out to be like the girl next door. No, she was more like a docile kitten. She kept eating the food prepared by General Rong in small bites. Seeing the two of them whispering to each other as if no one was around, she was afraid that good things were about to happen.
Although Chen Qiyu came to cause trouble, she and Li Yuan had a comradeship on the battlefield. After the matter was resolved, Li Yuan saw her standing aside awkwardly and still led her to her seat.
Yueying had eaten and drunk her fill when she felt someone staring at her unfriendlyly. She looked down at the table and saw Chen Qiyu sitting at the table with his back straight, his face cold. The next second, their eyes met, but Chen Qiyu immediately looked away.
Chen Qiyu showed up in the capital ahead of time because Rong Sheng'an was injured, and also caused such an embarrassing scene at the wedding of a military general. It is unclear whether his reputation in the army will be maintained in the future.
"Princess, Doctor Chen is the military doctor guarding the border town. She doesn't have any bad intentions."
Rong Sheng'an saw Yueying's eyes wandering, thought for a moment, and then explained.
"Oh? It seems that General Rong has a good relationship with her?"
Yueying raised her eyelids and glanced at him.
"Relationship? Princess, you misunderstood. I have no relationship with Military Doctor Chen. It's just that her medical skills are indeed good, and she has been diligent and capable on the battlefield in recent years."
"General Rong is afraid that I will take revenge on him."
"The general will not dare."
"General Rong, if I tell you that if you marry Miss Chen, I will let her go, what will you do?"
Yueying suddenly thought of a good idea, to just pair the male and female protagonists together, so that they can live comfortably in their old age.
"Princess, I already have someone I like."
Rong Sheng'an's face suddenly turned pale, probably due to heart palpitations. He gritted his teeth, lowered his head and concealed the sadness in his eyes.
At this time, Yueying remembered that the original owner was Rong Shengan's white moonlight. Seeing the current situation, a bit of embarrassment appeared on her face.
You only think about yourself and don't consider other people's feelings. It must be hard to feel good when the person you love is pushed to another woman.
"I'm just joking with you, don't take it seriously."
It’s someone else’s wedding banquet, so you can’t let your boss lose his temper right there.
Li Yuan came over to toast.
"Princess, I salute you..."
Perhaps because the princess had been concentrating on eating, Li Yuan did not toast from the main table first. Also, because the adults at the main table saw the interaction between the princess and the general, they did not pay much attention to it.
Therefore, when Li Yuan came to the main table to toast, he was already a little drunk and needed someone to support him.
"Congratulations, Li Shoubei. I wish you and Qingqing many children and happiness."
Yueying stood up, picked up the wine glass and drank it all. Pei Qingqing was a kind-hearted person. Li Yuan was a subordinate that Rong Shengan favored, so his character should be good as well.
"Thank you, Princess. General... I respectfully greet you and wish you... to marry Her Royal Highness the Princess soon..."
Li Yuan leaned sideways, half leaning on a guard, and spoke with a slurred tongue.
"Your master is drunk, help him back to his room first."
Rong Sheng'an spoke to Li Yuan's guards, but his eyes were secretly paying attention to the princess. He was worried whether the princess would be angry.
Yueying straightened Rong Shengan's body, looked at him with amusement, but said nothing.
The others at the main table didn't dare to say a word. It was no secret that General Rong liked the princess, but it was someone else's wedding, and the groom exposing this in front of the princess. Whether it would be a blessing or a curse depended entirely on the princess's decision.
"Did you arrange it?"
After Li Yuan left, Yueying asked bluntly.
"No, yes, no..."
"After all these years, are you still attracted to me?"
Looking at Rong Shengan's pair of clear eyes and his sweet smile, he was immediately attracted to her.
"The princess is the best woman in the world."
"What about my mother?"
"Ah, the princess is the best woman besides the queen."
"What about your mother?"
"This……"
Rong Sheng'an was asked several questions in succession. As a general who had fought on the battlefield, he looked embarrassed.
"Should you say that the princess is the best single woman in the world?"
Yueying smiled, moved closer to Rong Shengan, and spoke in a low voice.
"The princess is the best single woman in the world!"
As soon as Yueying finished speaking, before she had time to step away, Rong Shengan repeated it loudly, which scared Yueying.
Most of the people present were military generals, who were all heroic in nature. After hearing Rong Shengan's confession, they all started to make a fuss. If this matter had happened among scholars, they would have probably been criticized long ago. However, most of the people present were military generals, so it was quite lively for a while.
"Since General Rong is so fond of me, have you thought about other things?"
Yueying knew that in the original text, the hero fought in the battlefield and made numerous military achievements. Even when he later became a prince, he still led troops to war. However, in the world background of this story, the prince consort was not allowed to participate in politics. If the hero married Yueying, he would have to give up his career.
"Princess, after the matter of the bandits is resolved, I would like to ask the Emperor to grant me a marriage."
Rong Shengan thought that other things the princess was thinking about were the subsequent proposal and marriage.
"Father promised that I can decide my own marriage. What I want to ask is what will happen after I become the consort of the emperor."
Not only was Rong Sheng'an stunned for a moment, but the noisy generals also suddenly became quiet. Yes, if General Rong really married the princess, he would never be able to fight alongside them again.
If it was a peaceful and stable era, it might not be a big deal, but in recent years, the new monarchs of neighboring countries have been recruiting talents, expanding their territory, and fighting on all sides...
After today, all the generals in the army knew that the commander had someone he loved, the princess. But now they all felt that the commander and the princess were not suitable for each other. The wedding banquet scene at Li Yuan's house, which had just been lively, suddenly became quiet again.
However, only Chen Qiyu, who was sitting at the side of the lower table, had tears streaming down his face just now, but now he began to rejoice secretly.
But before they could be happy for a while, they heard the princess say.
"I know that General Rong has great righteousness in his heart, and I am willing to wait."
As soon as Yueying spoke, she felt that she was a little impulsive, but for some reason, when she saw this male protagonist, she felt very at ease and reassured. There was an emotion in her heart telling her that she wanted him.
The royal princess' public promise deeply moved many generals. Some even thought of their wives and children at home who had been waiting for years. It was not known who started it, but all the generals kowtowed one after another.
"Long live the princess."
Yueying's face, which was originally full of affection, suddenly froze there. She didn't expect that she was just responding to a promise made to Rong Shengan, but in the end everyone put her on the spot.
I hold my forehead with my hand. Is there any way out?
The news that the princess had promised to let the young general get married after he pacified the border spread quickly into the palace.
The emperor has been doting on the princess for a long time, and he had no intention of letting Rong Sheng'an go. So what if he became a royal consort? The border was unstable, and with his order, who could say no to Rong Sheng'an going to the battlefield?
He didn't expect that his daughter made an agreement first, which made it difficult for him as an old father.
Soon the news spread throughout the capital, and every household knew that the handsome and promising young General Rong was in love with the divorced princess, and the two had become an engaged couple.
People in the capital were talking about it, with mixed opinions on the matter.
There are even some stories that say the divorce was due to Lin Huaicong's promiscuous sex life with his cousin, which damaged his body. Later, the princess couldn't stand Lin Huaicong's sexual incompetence, so she found a general with good health.
As for this rumor, no one could find the source, but Yueying knew that it was probably spread by her father.
Lin Huaicong and the third prince were discussing matters in a teahouse. When they heard the storyteller making up stories about them, their faces turned pale.
The storytellers all used pseudonyms, but the background of the stories were about their own affairs. The people listened to the stories tacitly and discussed them privately when they returned home. Neither the officials nor Lin Huaicong could ask people not to spread the stories.
"The reputation of the Imperial Sister is not good either. Please bear with it."
The third prince Ji Yu smiled and took a sip of tea.
"Princess and Rong... Young General, you can actually let such a thing spread so widely."
Lin Huacong paused, added a cup of tea, and looked at the cup.
"After you two divorced, I thought the imperial sister had become a different person, but I didn't expect that she would still disregard everything for love."
"Your Highness is saying..."
