The unlucky fake daughter was screwed by the rotten system

Today is the Sixth Prince's wedding day. All the civil and military officials, royal relatives, and wealthy merchants who were invited to the banquet brought their families and came slowly to the Sixth Prince's residence from all corners of the capital, either in sedan chairs, on horses, or in carriages.

Xu Junshen was also on the invitation list.

When his naughty cousin Jiang Lanzhi learned that he was going to attend the wedding banquet, he insisted on coming along to join in the fun.

So, the two of them had no choice but to travel together to the Sixth Prince's residence.

At this time, the front yard of the imperial palace, which was specially used to entertain distinguished guests, was bustling with people and extremely lively.

There was cheerful laughter and pleasant conversation everywhere.

The most excited and happy ones were undoubtedly the children who came with their adults.

These little guys all had such brilliant smiles on their faces that it was hard to believe their eyes. They had simply come here to attend a wedding.

However, the atmosphere at this moment is as festive and joyful as that during the Chinese New Year.

No, to be precise, this feeling of happiness seems to be even greater than during the Chinese New Year!

In order to prevent the distinguished guests who came from afar from feeling bored, Yun Zhizhi carefully arranged the staff and set up four stalls in the four directions of east, west, south and north in the front yard.

In this way, every guest can enjoy the stinky tofu that smells bad but tastes delicious, the cool and refreshing ice cream, the hot and spicy malatang and a variety of mouth-watering snacks that she sold at her stall in the past.

Jiang Lanzhi slowly walked into the front yard.

When his eyes fell upon the scene before him, he was instantly stunned, as if time had frozen at that moment.

Xu Junshen, who was following behind him, saw him suddenly stop walking and couldn't help but feel puzzled. So he gently reached out and pushed him, asking, "Lanzhi, why did you suddenly stop walking?"

Hearing his cousin's question, Jiang Lanzhi came back to his senses as if awakened from a dream.

Pointing to the four corners of the yard, he said excitedly, "Cousin, look! There are so many people queuing in the four directions of the yard."

Then, he sniffed hard, frowned slightly, and couldn't help muttering softly: "Hey! Why do I seem to smell a particularly strange smell? It smells a bit fragrant, but also seems to have a hint of stench. It's really weird!"

After listening to this, Xu Junshen also looked in the direction of his finger out of curiosity.

After looking for a few times, he waved towards a place not far away, and soon a servant came trotting over.

Xu Junshen asked with a puzzled look on his face, "Why are they queuing there?"

The waiter, with a polite smile on his face, replied respectfully, "They are queuing up to get stinky tofu, ice cream, spicy hot pot, and various snacks."

"These are the delicacies that the Sixth Princess once sold at her stall. Today, we specially use them to entertain our distinguished guests."

At this moment, the sound of several people talking suddenly came from not far away.

The Minister of Rites was happily taking a large bite of slightly spicy stinky tofu, his mouth stuffed to the brim. He mumbled, "Haha! I was wondering if the Sixth Prince was just trying to give us a hard time."

"Now it seems like they had prepared such an unexpected surprise for us! Oh, I love it so much!"

After saying that, he chewed the stinky tofu in his mouth a few more times with satisfaction.

The governor next to him was not afraid of the cold and was eating a red bean milk ice cream with relish.

As he ate, he quickly agreed, "That's right! Who would have thought we could taste four of the finest delicacies once sold by the Sixth Imperial Concubine all at once? We're in for a real treat today!"

The Junior Secretary of the Honglu Temple leisurely crunched on crispy golden potato chips, his lips slightly raised in a sly smile.

"Hehe! But Prime Minister Yu won't have such a good time today. I guess he'll soon become the subject of everyone's after-dinner gossip!"

When Jiang Lanzhi heard the conversation between the servant and these officials, a hint of joy appeared on his face.

He quickly looked at Xu Junshen and said impatiently, "Cousin, I'll go get the ice cream first. We can move freely."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Lanzhi ran towards the ice cream stand not far away like a happy little deer.

Looking at his cousin's hurriedly leaving back, Xu Junshen was stunned at first, then shook his head helplessly and smiled.

Then, he walked towards the stinky tofu stall with steady steps.

Today, I finally had the chance to taste the long-rumored stinky tofu, which is said to smell terrible but taste delicious.

Thinking of this, a hint of anticipation flashed in Xu Junshen's eyes.

the other side.

There was silence in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and an oppressive atmosphere enveloped the entire mansion like a dark cloud.

At this moment, Prime Minister Yu's family, young and old, all gathered in the main hall, staring at each other, and no one knew how to break the suffocating silence.

Prime Minister Yu sat at the first seat with a gloomy expression, holding the wine glass tightly in his hand and drinking one sip after another.

He just couldn't understand why the Sixth Prince was so decisive this time and didn't give him any face at all. He didn't even send his family a wedding invitation.

Although he did owe Yun Zhizhi something and abandoned her due to some changes in the past, no matter what, he was still a first-rank official in the court!

He didn't even give me this face.

Just when Prime Minister Yu was filled with resentment, a secret guard who was responsible for going out to gather information hurriedly stepped into the main hall.

He first bowed to Prime Minister Yu, then hurriedly reported, "Your Excellency, I have just checked and found that the Sixth Prince has invited all officials in the court and their families to the wedding banquet."

Upon hearing the news, a hint of surprise suddenly flashed across the dull eyes of Prime Minister Yu and his family.

However, before this joy could fully take over his heart, the secret guard took a breath and then added, "Only our Prime Minister's Mansion is excluded."

As soon as he finished speaking, the eldest son of the Yu family, who had been full of expectations, instantly wilted like an eggplant hit by frost.

He shouted at the secret guard in a rage, "Why are you panting so hard when you speak? Can't you just finish what you want to say in one go? You've made me so happy for nothing!"

He thought he had made a mistake.

Prime Minister Yu was originally holding the wine glass to drink, but after hearing the report from the secret guard, he was instantly enraged. He stretched out his hand to grab the wine jug on the table, and without caring about his image, he tilted his head back and gulped down the wine.

At this moment, the scene of tomorrow's morning court has already emerged in his mind: those colleagues who usually disagree with his political views will flatter him on the surface, but secretly sneer at what happened today.

And those who appear to be on good terms with you may inadvertently reveal a gloating smile.

It may even become a laughing stock among the people.

Thinking of this, Prime Minister Yu felt even more annoyed and clenched the wine jug in his hand even tighter.

At the same time, the Prime Minister's wife's face was extremely gloomy. She clenched her teeth so tightly that she almost broke them.

She never expected that the previously arrogant and domineering Yun Zhizhi, a fake legitimate daughter, would be so lucky to catch the big fish of the Sixth Prince!

If she had known this earlier, why would she change her attitude so quickly and drive Yun Zhizhi away so impatiently?

Otherwise, she would become the mother-in-law of the Sixth Prince, and with the identity of the Prime Minister's wife, she would be able to do whatever she wants in the future.

Enjoy endless wealth and glory.

Now that I think about it, it was really a mistake!
