After the marriage, my husband's family listened to my voice and turned the tide
Chapter 99 The Future 4th Prince Consort
Although she didn't understand, Ke Yishang was tactful and didn't ask. Ke Zhenzhen wanted to take her to the side to appreciate the plum blossoms, and the two of them said something to Shang Tingli and Ke Xin and walked away.
Ke Ruwei didn't invite many people to this plum blossom viewing banquet, but it was not a small number either. In addition to the young people from the royal family, she probably invited a group of young people from the families of officials of the second rank and above.
"Miss He and Master He from the Imperial Tutor's Mansion have arrived—"
"Master Pan and Miss Pan from the Duke Zhong's Mansion have arrived—"
As the palace servant's report fell, everyone turned around and looked back.
He Zhiying and a handsome young man walked slowly over, and behind them, Pan Qinghuan also came with a handsome young man. The handsome man and beautiful woman formed a beautiful scenery, attracting everyone's attention.
"As expected of the two talented ladies in the capital, their looks and temperament are also top-notch."
"If you ask me, Miss Pan is better. After all, she has been famous since she was a child."
"Eh? Then I am more optimistic about Miss He. Although she was a little confused in her early years, she woke up early and it is not too late. Her talent is immeasurable, otherwise she would not be favored by the Queen and chosen to be the Crown Princess."
Some people were talking in low voices.
Shang Tingli couldn't help but shake his head.
[Why do we always compare beauties standing together? Can't they each be beautiful in their own way? ]
Although she is good friends with He Zhiqiang, Pan Qinghuan is Yu Lanxi's cousin, and the Duke Zhongguo's Mansion has not taken sides, the result is predictable. However, she still cannot go against her conscience and be biased towards He Zhiqiang, because if she has to compare He Zhiqiang and Pan Qinghuan, it is actually difficult to tell who is the winner.
[In my previous life, I didn't live to see the Duke Zhong's Mansion take sides. But in this life, they should stand on the side of the Fourth Prince, right? After all, they are related to the Duke Yi Zhong's Mansion by marriage, so they are on the same boat.]
Ke Xin stood beside her, thinking to himself that her guess was not unreasonable.
"Greetings to the Crown Prince and Crown Princess."
Four voices spoke in unison, pulling the couple back to their senses. Shang Tingli smiled and held He Zhiqi's arm to pull him up, "No need to be polite."
Pan Qinghuan and Young Master Pan Qingchuan bowed again and left silently.
"Sister Tingli, this is my younger brother He Zhiheng." He Zhiheng introduced her younger brother, the eldest master of the He family, to Shang Tingli.
He Zhiheng bowed to the emperor, fanned himself and smiled: "Greetings to the Crown Prince's Consort."
"No need to be so polite. We'll be a family from now on, so there's no need for these empty formalities." Shang Tingli said with a smile.
[The young scholar who won the imperial examination in the rumors is indeed a handsome man, and he is a perfect match for Ling Yun. ]
This was her first time meeting He Zhiheng. She had only heard of his name before, but now that she saw him, she could not conceal his scholarly aura, and his elegance was evident in every detail.
Perhaps it was because of the word "family" that the young man's face suddenly turned red and he looked embarrassed.
When Ke Xin saw this, he suddenly became a little worried, his face turned slightly cold. He looked like a pretty boy. How could he protect Ling Yun in the future?
Who would have thought that he was still a young man, and his face would easily turn red. Shang Tingli could not help but tease him, "Lingyun just went over there with Baozhen, I wonder if Master He wants to go over there?"
He Zhiheng hurriedly bowed and then left in a panic, but it turned out that he was going in the direction that Shang Tingli pointed.
This made her laugh out loud: "Sister He, your brother is really interesting."
Ke Xin curled his lips.
He Zhixing also laughed and said, "He never fails to be amused."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived——"
The palace maid's voice was loud and clear when she reported.
Shang Tingli winked at He Zhiying and joked, "Why did His Royal Highness come so early? Could it be that he was thinking about the beauty and couldn't wait to come here?"
Look at these meaningful words.
Before He Zhiying could speak, Ke Xin spoke first and said sarcastically, "Brother Yunyan is not the type to indulge in sentimental relationships."
Shang Tingli: “…”
[Hehe, what do you, a member of the Fourth Prince Party, know? ]
[You don't understand His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at all. Who said he is not a sentimental person? ]
Ke Xin frowned.
[You don't know, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince loves Sister He very much. He was afraid that Sister He would be in danger, so he arranged for someone to protect her. Sister He's name Ruhua was originally His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's secret guard.]
[If it weren't for Sister He's agreement, how could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have chosen a Crown Princess so quickly? ]
Ke Xin widened his eyes in disbelief.
Did he really hear it right? How could it be so outrageous?
He was very surprised and in shock. So when Ke Yu came up to him, he stared at her with a complicated expression.
Being looked at inexplicably by him, Ke Yu could not help but ask, "Why is Xingchen looking at me like this?"
There couldn't be anything on his face, right? He checked it before leaving, so it's impossible that he didn't wash his face.
Ke Xin shook his head with an indescribable expression and said, "Nothing."
I never expected that at the Xu family's lotus viewing banquet, the Crown Princess was actually selected by Brother Yun Yan himself.
He originally thought that a man like Brother Yun Yan should be a pure-hearted person with few desires, who only cares about the country and the people, and beauties are dispensable to him.
Tsk, he was overthinking it.
Without saying a few more words, Ke Yu took He Zhiqiang to appreciate the plum blossoms, leaving Shang Tingli and Ke Xin looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Then...are we going to enjoy the plum blossoms too?"
Shang Tingli raised the corner of his mouth.
Ke Xin nodded: "Let's go."
It’s a plum blossom viewing banquet, what else can you do if not go to view the plum blossoms?
The two walked in silence and unknowingly came to the place where the most people stopped. Everyone seemed to be playing Feihualing.
"A plum tree stands with white jade branches, and stands by the village road beside the creek bridge. It's your turn, Miss Yu."
"Isn't this simple? There are a few plum blossoms in the corner, blooming alone in the cold."
"Well done, Lan Xi."
"Thank you Yihan for the compliment. It's your turn now."
At this moment, someone saw Shang Tingli and Ke Xin and bowed to greet them: "Greetings to the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess of Prince Ren."
This startled everyone present and they all bowed again.
The couple looked at each other and walked over.
As soon as she saw Shang Tingli, Yu Lanxi's anger rose in her heart, and she couldn't suppress it no matter what she did. She spoke with a touch of stiffness: "Cousin, you came at the right time. We are playing Feihualing. I wonder if you are interested?"
The last time she got bruised on her face, she suffered for several days before it healed. Fortunately, she had access to beauty cream at home, otherwise she couldn’t imagine whether she would really be disfigured.
She really hated this bitch.
Shang Tingli directly refused: "You guys play."
[I came here to watch the show, but I have no interest in playing flying flower orders. ]
Ke Xin could testify that, after all, although she didn't say a word along the way, she had said a lot in her heart, and the most common thought was that she hoped Kang Ping would come soon.
"Oh? Cousin, are you afraid of making a fool of yourself?" Yu Lanxi insisted, "I heard that your cousin's flying flower order was better than that of Cousin Qinghuan and Miss He. Are you afraid of making a fool of yourself, or do you disdain to play with us?"
There were both male and female young people present. Besides Ji Zhang, there was also a beautiful woman beside her.
I only heard the woman say, "That shouldn't be the case, right? I don't think the Crown Prince's Consort is such an arrogant person."
It looked like she was speaking for Shang Tingli, but upon closer listening, it was more like a kind of coercion. As if if Shang Tingli refused again, he would really be as she said, a person who looked down on everything.
Shang Tingli laughed when he heard this.
Yu Lanxi then took over the woman's words: "Yihan, you are absolutely right. I also think that my cousin is not that kind of person."
[Yi Han? This name sounds familiar, I seem to have heard it somewhere before.]
Shang Tingli thought about it and suddenly realized.
【It turned out to be her. 】
Ke Xin raised his eyebrows. Who?
[Yihan, Bai Yihan, the eldest daughter of Lord Bai, the Minister of the Imperial Household Department, and the future consort of the Fourth Prince.]
Ke Xin's eyes became deep.
The result of his investigation by Du Heng at Chunchibin was that Ke Ming had an appointment with the daughter of the Bai family, the Minister of Imperial Household Department. It seemed that if nothing unexpected happened, Ke Ming would still marry the daughter of the Bai family as the consort of the Fourth Prince.
[Zhou Jingyu is still under house arrest, no wonder Yu Lanxi is playing with Bai Yihan right now.]
Shang Tingli raised his eyelids.
In fact, in her previous life, Yu Lanxi and Bai Yihan had no intersection. In this life, she relied on her own efforts to play with Bai Yihan.
Seeing that she hadn't spoken, Yu Lanxi pretended to be surprised and asked, "Why isn't my cousin talking? Are you still thinking about how to reject us?"
Shang Tingli did not speak immediately, but glanced at the people present and found that except Bai Yihan who agreed with Yu Lanxi, the rest of the people either looked as if it had nothing to do with them, or looked like they were watching the show and laughing at the joke.
She couldn't help but think, isn't this a joke? Two cousins from the same family have fallen to the point of slandering each other in front of outsiders. Outsiders have really seen enough of the joke.
But Yu Lanxi not only did not feel ashamed, but also wanted to become famous by stepping on her.
It's really ridiculous.
"Do I need to think before I reject you?" Shang Tingli raised his lips and chuckled, his momentum was quite arrogant, "Madam Ji, you think too highly of yourself."
After two fights, there was still some face left, and everyone outside could see it clearly.
It was inevitable that she would break up with the Yi Zhong Hou Mansion. Yu Lanxi only wanted to laugh at her, and why didn't she want to laugh at Yu Lanxi's joke?
"you--"
Yu Lanxi had not expected that she would dare to be so humiliating in public, and she was so angry that she choked.
Bai Yihan, on the other hand, reacted faster and looked at Shang Tingli disapprovingly: "What the Crown Prince's Consort said is really heartbreaking."
Shang Tingli curled her lips and said, "I wonder what Miss Bai is talking about? I am a consort of a prince, do I need to consider the opinion of a fifth-rank general's wife before doing anything, or -" She looked mischievous, "What do you mean, Miss Bai?"
[Wow, how can it be so cool to rely on the power of others! ]
Ke Xin: “…”
She was really arrogant, but what she said was reasonable. Bai Yihan was really blocked by her for a moment, and could only say one sentence: "The princess misunderstood me. I just thought that you and Lan Xi are cousins, and what you said may make Lan Xi feel disappointed."
It seems that what Lan Xi said is mostly true.
In fact, she and Yu Lanxi only knew each other on the road from the palace gate to Yufu Palace, but they got along very well. Perhaps this was fate.
On the way, Yu Lanxi mentioned this Princess Consort of Prince Ren to her. Now it seems that she is really just a pretentious person.
How can a person appear to be easy to talk to but actually be extremely arrogant?
"Miss Bai is not so poor that she has to live in a cave, right?" Shang Tingli asked bluntly.
Bai Yihan didn't react for a moment and answered conservatively: "...Although my family is not as wealthy as Prince Ren's mansion, we do live in the city."
Ke Xin stood beside Shang Tingli, with his arms folded across his chest, looking extremely lazy and comfortable. He immediately said sarcastically, "Who asked you? I'm scolding you for being blocked."
Bai Yihan: “…”
[Huh? Ke Xingchen is pretty smart now? He actually understands what I mean! ]
Shang Tingli felt a sense of relief in his heart, as if he had picked up a stupid puppy, but unexpectedly found that the puppy was quite smart after raising it.
She quickly agreed, "The prince still understands me." She smiled at Bai Yihan, "Miss Bai is indeed not very well-informed. Who doesn't know this now? I am not blessed to be Madam Ji's cousin. What does it have to do with me whether she is disappointed or not?"
Bai Yihan wanted to say something, but Yu Lanxi spoke first, "It's not that the Crown Prince's Consort is not blessed to be my cousin. It's that I am not blessed to be your cousin."
She is just very sarcastic.
Shang Tingli nodded and said, "Yes, even if I give you this blessing, you can't accept it."
Yu Lanxi: “?”
Who just said that she herself was not blessed?
Yu Lanxi's face darkened immediately. Did someone think he was performing a play on the stage? Performing a face-changing trick and thinking he was humorous?
Many people found Shang Tingli's change of expression humorous and almost couldn't hold back their laughter.
Yi Shuya and Jing Yuyuan whispered to each other: "I discovered last time at Zhou's house that this prince's consort is very interesting and her words are very pleasant to listen to."
She and Jing Yuyuan were admiring the plum blossoms nearby and did not participate in the flying flower event. They just came over to watch the fun after hearing the noise.
She was not fond of elegant things by nature, and she could not do such an elegant thing as appreciating plum blossoms, but Jing Yuyuan liked it, so she accompanied this handkerchief friend. But she always liked to join in the fun, so she pulled Jing Yuyuan over.
Jing Yuyuan held the handkerchief in her hand and covered her mouth, whispering, "He is an open-minded person."
People who practice martial arts have always had sharp ears and eyes. Ke Xin was not far away, so even though she lowered her voice, he still heard what she said.
An open-minded person? The kind of open-minded person who praises him on the surface but scolds him behind his back? Ke Xin disagrees.
Bai Yihan whispered a few words in Yu Lanxi's ear, and then she heard Yu Lanxi say, "The Crown Prince's Consort doesn't have to say such hurtful words. If you really don't want to wait with me, I won't force you."
Shang Tingli couldn't help but glance at Bai Yihan when he heard that.
[After being taught by an expert, the words you say will sound different. 】
Not everyone in the crowd thought that Shang Tingli spoke nicely like Yi Shuya and Jing Yuyuan did. Some people thought she was mean.
Sure enough, someone said, "The Crown Prince's Consort is really going too far. Miss Yu originally just wanted to play Feihua Ling with you. You don't have to say such harsh words, right?"
Shang Tingli looked over.
