After being married off by my younger sister, I became the most beloved person in the palace

Guan Shaowei received the Third Prince's order to find a way to seduce Gu Zhiyin. Although this was very strange, as a bastard of the Guan family and not valued by his father, the Third Prince was willing to ask him to do something. Guan Shaowei wanted to put in his utmost effort. If he succeeded, he would be able to follow the Third Prince in enjoying the good life and his status in the palace would surely rise.

It was no secret that Fu Yunjing doted on actors like his wife. The Princess of Ming County must be very lonely, and since he was so charming and suave, he could use a little trick to hook Gu Zhiyin.

Guan Shaowei was very confident. After several days of investigation and tracking, he stopped Gu Zhiyin on the street.

To be exact, he bribed the local thugs and made a scene in front of Gu Zhiyin's carriage.

"Bah—"

"Ouch!"

There was the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, accompanied by a scream.

The driver quickly tightened the reins to stop the carriage, and looked at the man who was rolling on the ground in front of him with a pale face.

"what happened?"

Ruyi's voice came from the carriage.

"I...hit someone." The driver replied tremblingly.

When Ruyi heard this, the corner of her mouth twitched slightly. How did she bump into someone again?

Is the coachman of Prince Pingyang's Palace capable? Can he drive a carriage?

Ruyi lifted the curtain and was about to get off the car, but suddenly she remembered the last time she picked up Leng Moqiu, so she turned her head to look at Gu Zhiyin and asked, "Princess, do you want to see this person?"

What if he is another promising talent?

Gu Zhiyin: “…”

"Are you blind? Do you know how to drive a carriage? Ouch, my leg is broken, and all my heirlooms are smashed. Pay me ten thousand taels." The man on the ground hugged his leg and roared.

The driver stiffened his neck and trembled with anger: "It was obviously you who hit me."

"Bullshit, you hit someone and you still want to deny it, do you have any justice or law?" The thug pointed at the driver and cursed, attracting many people to stop and watch: "Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you are a wealthy family. I tell you, even if I am of humble status, you can't treat me with contempt."

These words were so righteous that they resonated deeply with the people around, and everyone immediately shared the same hatred for the ruffians.

If you see this, I won’t dare go down.

"Princess, what should we do? Should we reveal our identities?"

Gu Zhiyin looked through the gap in the curtain at the man lying on the ground outside, and a ray of dim light quickly passed through her eyes.

"No."

It would be useless to reveal one's identity, as it would only make people think that the Prince of Pingyang's Palace was bullying others by abusing its power.

The weak are always sympathized.

Most people would not think about whether this person deliberately committed fraud or not. They would just assume that the carriage hit someone and would not be willing to pay compensation.

"But if he keeps slandering us like this, we can't leave." Ruyi was so anxious that she was about to cry.

Gu Zhiyin smiled faintly: "Don't worry!"

If it was intentional, it wouldn't be as simple as just stopping her.

Sure enough, not long after Gu Zhiyin finished speaking, a man's angry voice rang out, "You want the law, I'll give it to you."

Guan Shaowei seized the opportunity and walked in front of the carriage with a dignified look, staring down at the ruffian.

The thug looked at him warily: "Who are you?"

"Who do you care who I am? The government office of Jingzhao Prefecture is open to you. Do you dare to come with me?"

"You're scaring me?"

"Hmph, I saw you with my own eyes holding something and ramming it into the horse. It's obvious that you are extorting money. Are you looking at the people around you blind? Even if we are ignorant, the prefect will always be able to tell whether what you said is true or false. Come, take him to the government office."

Guan Shaowei gave an order and several servants immediately pushed through the crowd and came to the front of the thug.

Seeing this, the thug turned pale with fear: "I...consider it my bad luck, I won't bother with you."

Having said that, he quickly got up from the ground and ran away.

"He... is really a liar..." After a while, someone in the crowd exclaimed in disbelief.

"I almost got cheated."

"Everyone disperse." The servants waved to the crowd.

The onlookers soon dispersed.

"Thank you very much for your testimony, sir." The coachman bowed to Guan Shaowei with a look of gratitude on his face.

Guan Shaowei smiled righteously: "It's just a small favor, I hope it didn't scare your master?"

At this time, Ruyi lifted the curtain and said with a faint smile: "My master is the Princess of Ming County. Thank you for helping me. I don't know your name, but the Princess of Ming County will definitely reward you handsomely."

Guan Shaowei looked towards the carriage.

The girl sat on one side, wearing a chest-length plain flowered skirt with a satin dress on the outside. Her long, thick black hair was tied into beautiful clouds. A single string of emerald green and bright red tassels hung from her hairpin, dotted with a few star-sized rhinestone flower ornaments, making her look particularly delicate and charming. The white jade tassel butterfly pendant on her collar swayed slightly, almost blinding him.

Guan Shaowei took a deep breath.

hiss--

No one told him that Fu Yunjing's newly married princess was such a stunningly beautiful woman.

If he had known that the eldest daughter of the Gu family was so beautiful, he would have come to propose marriage.

The Gu family hid it really well.

Originally, he only had the mentality of completing the task assigned by the Third Prince, but the moment he saw Gu Zhiyin, Guan Shaowei suddenly felt itchy. Fu Yunjing, that idiot, was only interested in actors, and he might not have even touched Gu Zhiyin.

In this way, wouldn't it be a bargain for him?

Guan Shaowei thought about it and felt a surge of emotion in his heart.

He clasped his fists and bowed to Gu Zhiyin, then smiled in a way that he thought was cool and handsome: "I am Xiaguan Shaowei, nice to meet the Princess of Ming County."

"Your surname is Guan? Who are you to the Supreme Court?" Gu Zhiyin's clear and moving voice sounded from the carriage. Guan Shaowei's ears felt his bones soften.

"It's my father." Guan Shaowei said with a smile.

"I see, Master Guan, see you again if we're lucky." Gu Zhiyin smiled softly.

Goodbye...

Guan Shaowei's head suddenly felt dizzy, and he looked at the carriage going away with a silly smile on his face.

So, my heroic act of saving the beauty today moved Gu Zhiyin?

Well, that must be the case.

He has a good family background, handsome appearance, and helped her when she was in trouble. The beauty must have a very good impression of him. If he is more diligent, he will be able to win the beauty's heart in no time.

Guan Shaowei left with full confidence.

Gu Zhiyin returned to the palace, and Ruyi followed absent-mindedly behind him. When she entered the backyard from the hanging flower gate, she suddenly screamed.

"what……"

Gu Zhiyin was caught off guard, stopped, holding her chest, and looked back at her: "What's wrong?"

Ruyi gnashed her teeth, first looked around, then whispered in Gu Zhiyin's ear: "Master, did Guan Shaowei ask someone to put on a show in front of you?"

Gu Zhiyin raised an eyebrow: "Did you see that?"

Ruyi nodded angrily. First, a local thug suddenly tried to scam her, and then Guan Shaowei showed up to testify.

The Princess told her not to worry, obviously realizing that this was a deliberate plot.

"What does he want to do?"

"Let's talk about it when we get back." Gu Zhiyin said.
