Chapter 116: Meeting Fu Heyi

I looked at Xiao Cui and said seriously, "Big sister, your martial arts skills, just one move from yours would be enough to support you in life..."

"Performing for a living? No, no, if I perform for a living my parents will definitely say that I'm bringing shame to them..." Xiao Cui quickly shook her head, her face full of resistance.

"What? I wonder how much money you can make if you live broadcast this in our place!" Lei Lei opened her mouth in surprise.

"Who asked you to perform? You can teach others by giving them lessons. The price per person is high. You can have one-on-one lessons, which is high. One-to-many lessons, which is low.

You can make appointments with a lot of people at different times of the day, and you can also offer other classes to strengthen your body.

I just don't believe it. Who would dare to bother you if you make money? I tell you, if you make it in this imperial city, your family tree will have to open a separate page for you!" I said casually.

"Oh, and starting from next month, give half of your salary to your family, and keep the other half for yourself. Tell them that your princess is very stingy and all the servants' salaries have been cut in half, and you will be wearing tattered clothes when you go home. Just cry poor to them when you get home," I immediately instructed.

"Yeah, that's right. If you want to get married at that time, there will naturally be someone better to match you. It's you who chooses the other person." Lei Lei also agreed.

"Do you understand? The most important thing in life is the right to choose." I said, staring at her closely.

"Yes, Cui'er understands. Thank you, Princess and Miss Leilei!" Xiao Cui said with a smile as if she had suddenly realized something.

Xiang Er scratched the back of her head and asked in confusion, "Why do you want to get married? I don't want to leave the princess."

Hearing Xiang'er's words, Lei Lei couldn't help laughing out loud and teased, "Hahahaha, did you see that? Xiang'er is still the smartest and knows how to cling to someone powerful."

The carriage continued to move forward, the sound of the wheels rolling and the bursts of laughter intertwined, making people feel happy.

"Come on, ladies, take a look. Although this house is small, it has everything. It is clean and tidy, and has never been rented to a messy person before. The most important thing is that there is a lot of traffic here, and it is just a few steps away from the crossroads." The landlord introduced enthusiastically with a smile on his face. As he spoke, he took us into the room to show us the facilities and environment inside.

"I just heard that a few girls are planning to sell women's things, right?" asked the landlord, looking at us expectantly.

"Yeah." I nodded in affirmation.

Hearing our answer, the landlord immediately perked up and began to introduce in detail: "There is a rouge shop not far from here, which specializes in selling all kinds of rouge, powder and other products. It will definitely attract many female customers.

There is a silk shop further north, and their business is very big! Not only that, but now there is a bigger silk shop opened on another street, and I believe these shops can bring in some customers.”

This place seems to be quite suitable for doing business, and the surrounding supporting facilities are also relatively complete.

"Okay, then we'll book this one with you. You set a date, write the contract... write the receipt, and then we'll come over to sign and seal it." I said in a firm tone.

The landlord was surprised and couldn't believe his ears. "Ah? It's been decided so quickly, don't you need to go back and discuss it with your family?" he asked doubtfully. "After all, most tenants will think twice and even check the house several times before making a decision."

Xiang'er saw my expression and immediately understood what I meant. She took out a silver ingot from her bosom and handed it to the shopkeeper, saying in a sweet voice, "Our wife can make the decision. This silver is the deposit. Don't worry!"

I smiled and said to the landlord: "To be honest, we have been looking at your house for several days in different periods of time."

The landlord looked at the heavy silver and smiled widely. He nodded hurriedly and said, "Okay, young lady, you are really thoughtful. How about you come at this time tomorrow?"

I smiled and replied, "Okay, no problem. If I can't come tomorrow, I will send them over, and you can sign with them then."

The landlord nodded and agreed quickly: "Okay, okay, I've memorized the ladies' looks. They all look like fairies."

Lei Lei couldn't help laughing when she heard this: "Hahaha, I love listening to what the landlord says~"

After saying goodbye to the landlord, we sat in the carriage and discussed whether we should go back for dinner.

Lei Lei blinked and suggested excitedly, "Let's go to Qianweilou for dinner! I want to eat rabbit."

When I heard it, I immediately agreed: "Okay, okay, I want to drink some chrysanthemum wine~"

So, the carriage changed direction and headed towards Qianweilou...

"What are you drinking... What if you are pregnant? How can you drink?" She immediately became serious and said.

"What? There's not even a hint of success!" I said helplessly.

"You two, keep an eye on her. She can't drink alcohol this month until her period comes next month..." said Leilaicui, Xiaocui and Xiang'er.

They both blushed and nodded.

"Uh... this..." Before I could say anything, she continued, "I might as well move back here to look after you."

"Don't... Can you come back when I'm really pregnant? Good man... I feel like you worry more than my mom..." I rolled my eyes.

"Okay...you have to pay more attention to yourself..." she warned.

"Okay, I got it." I bowed to her.

This action made Xiao Cui and Xiang'er laugh secretly with their hands covering their mouths.

When I arrived at the entrance of Qianweilou, the shopkeeper recognized me at a glance and immediately came out to greet me, "Princess, you are here."

"Hello, shopkeeper. Are there any private rooms available?" I asked the shopkeeper with a smile and looked upstairs.

"Oh, there's no more today. There are private rooms on the second floor with seats by the window. Would you like to take a look?" the shopkeeper said apologetically.

"Sure, no problem." I answered readily.

"Okay, come, I'll take you upstairs." The shopkeeper said and personally took us to the second floor.

"Why are there so many people today?" Lei Lei asked in a low voice beside me.

"It seems that some young master is hosting a banquet today and has booked all the private rooms on the third floor." The shopkeeper answered Lei Lei as he walked upstairs.

"Oh, I see." I nodded thoughtfully.

Soon all the dishes were served. "Come on, Xiang'er, try this? You're the only one who hasn't eaten it yet! It's delicious." I picked up a piece of roasted rabbit meat and put it into Xiang'er's bowl.

"Ah, thank you, Princess, but...but this is a rabbit~ Rabbits are so cute~" Xiang'er looked at the meat in the bowl, her face full of reluctance and hesitation.

"Try it! If it doesn't taste good, just don't eat it in the future! Rabbits are cute, but they can also be delicious." Leilei also said.

"Sister Cui'er, have you eaten it too?" Xiang'er looked up and asked Xiao Cui again.

"Yeah, it's delicious." Xiao Cui said while eating the food.

I saw Xiang'er reluctantly pick up a piece of rabbit meat with chopsticks and put it in her mouth to chew.

The three of us stared at her expression.

Xiang'er's expression changed from frowning in disbelief to exclaiming in surprise: "Wow, this is so delicious!"

"Here, it's delicious with a bowl of rice." Leilei handed her another bowl of rice.

"Hmm, hmm, it's delicious~" Xiang'er said and started to eat with relish.

At this time, I heard a noisy sound coming from upstairs and thought that the party was over.

"I don't know when I will see you again after this separation, Brother Fu~"

"Oh, yes~ Brother Fu, please take care of yourself."

"Remember to write to me. If I can go to the south next year, I will definitely visit you."

I saw a group of people surrounding a young man coming down from the upstairs.

At this moment, the man was stunned when he saw us, then he quickly walked down the stairs and walked in front of us with an angry face. We were all a little confused. Xiao Cui had already put down her chopsticks and was about to stand up. I held Xiao Cui and whispered, "Let's see."

"Yes." Xiao Cui sat down again, ready for battle.

"Zhao Zhongling!" The man walked to our table and pointed at Lei Lei and shouted.

"Where did I get into this love affair again..." I said helplessly.

"Fu Heyi." She whispered.

"Cui, his target is Leilei. You should judge for yourself when to attack and don't show mercy." He whispered to Cui.

"Don't worry, Princess." Xiao Cui reached out to the windowsill, picked a few leaves and held them in her hand.

The man had a furious look on his face, as if Leilei had done something wrong to him.

"What can I do for you, sir?" I said to the man who suddenly appeared.

"I'm here to talk to Zhao Zhongling. It has nothing to do with you." The man said bluntly.

"Oh? Really? But you're disturbing our meal now." I said, with a hint of displeasure in my eyes.

"Hmph, you women really don't know what's good for you. Do you know who he is? How dare you reply like that." The people around Fu Heyi sneered and said with disdain.

"That's right. It's your blessing that Young Master Fu can talk to you in person." Another lackey immediately echoed, his face full of flattery.

"Oh? He never spoke in person before? Oh oh oh ~ I see, you worms will help him speak ~" I leisurely picked up the teacup, took a sip, then rolled my eyes and said in a sarcastic tone.

"How dare you! The person you offended today is the prime minister's legitimate son!" The lackey's face suddenly changed, and he pointed at me angrily and shouted.

"Oh~ Then what does the Prime Minister's legitimate son want to see Miss Ling'er for?" I put down the teacup, looked at Fu Heyi with cold eyes, and a sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of my mouth.

"Hmph! It's all your fault because you're incompetent! You couldn't... couldn't help Daddy, so things have developed to this point today." Fu Heyi was so angry that he was shaking all over. He pointed at Lei Lei and accused her angrily.

"Are you sick? You and your whole family forced a woman to pass on information to you, and she didn't want to do it. You asked for trouble and now you blame her for not helping you! If there's something wrong with your family, go see a doctor!" I widened my eyes, glared at Fu Heyi, and cursed him without any mercy.

"You! Who are you? How dare you talk to me like that?" Fu Heyi looked at me angrily and said.

"That's right, who are you?" someone nearby echoed.

"What can a woman like you understand? You might as well go home and take care of your husband and children." Another person said.

"Hey~ Look at this young lady, she has pretty eyes and eyebrows, and is quite pretty. Is she married?" another person teased.

"Hahahaha, Brother Chen, didn't you just take a concubine?" the person next to him joked.

"Eh? I'm not that good at talking~" The man called Brother Chen waved his hands quickly.

At this time, Xiao Cui stood up and said coldly: "Please be careful with your words, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."

The man glanced at Xiao Cui and said disdainfully: "How dare a little maid be so arrogant? She really doesn't know her own limitations."

I held Xiao Cui, looked at the man, and smiled, "I wonder which mansion the young master is from?"

"Oh, you've taken a liking to me~" the young master surnamed Chen replied with a smile.

"Look at the way you dress and speak, you have an outstanding temperament. I really want to get to know you." I answered with a smile.

"Oh my, my ~ Brother Chen is really lucky~" the people behind him cheered.

"That's true~ When will I ever have such a romantic encounter~" others echoed.

After hearing these words, I turned to look at Master Chen, smiled at him, and gently invited him: "Master Chen, come sit down and have a drink."

A hint of surprise flashed across Mr. Chen's eyes for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure.

He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and responded with a bit of confidence and unruly: "Oh, since the beauty has invited me, I would be disrespectful to refuse." After that, he stood up without hesitation, walked past Fu and Yi, walked to our table, and sat down without any hesitation.

He picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, then looked up at me with a gleam in his eyes.

I looked at him with a smile and asked softly, "Mr. Chen looks like a handsome man, why is he hanging out with Prime Minister Fu's son? Aren't you afraid of ruining your reputation?"

My words instantly made the atmosphere tense, and Fu Heyi's eyes widened immediately, pointing at me angrily and shouting, "What are you talking about!"

However, Mr. Chen's reaction was beyond everyone's expectations. He did not refute me excitedly like Fu Heyi did, but frowned slightly, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a serious expression.

I had no intention of paying any attention to Fu Heyi, and then I said to Master Chen, "Some people are guilty of serious crimes. Maybe the emperor saw that their old man had worked hard and made great contributions, so he let him go and allowed him to retire and return home. Think about it, they sent you to garrison on the border! You actually went to the enemy country to visit a brothel! You tell me for yourself...tsk tsk tsk."

"You..." Fu Heyi was so angry that his face turned red, and he pointed at me and said.

"I'm kindly reminding you that you'd better retract your finger quickly, otherwise... I'm worried that you and your father will lose a finger when you leave the capital." I turned around and glared at him fiercely.

What I didn't expect was that he actually pulled his hand back.

"Zhao Zhongling, you must follow me back to the mansion and give an explanation to my father!" Fu Heyi reached out and grabbed Lei Lei's arm, trying to force her to leave.
