My eunuch An is a yandere

Chapter 69 Being targeted

"Princess, Master Bai is here again today, eager to collect his manuscript. He's saying that if you don't give him something, there will be a skylight in the newspaper the day after tomorrow. He's blocking the door and won't leave."

Aunt Qi smiled and handed over a cup of tea.

The eldest princess smelled the tea, took a sip, and then spoke calmly.

"Young people are still too impetuous."

"That's right. The bedding is here. He said he'd sleep on the floor until he gets your manuscript."

The eldest princess didn't say anything, but she couldn't suppress the corners of her mouth that were turned up.

After finishing a cup of tea, he went to the desk and took out the things he had written long ago.

"Give it to him. He's not annoying when he comes to make trouble every day."

Although he said it was annoying, he actually looked very proud.

Come to think of it, so many people are waiting for her. If she can't write anything, so many love-struck ladies will be worried.

She is their spiritual mentor.

The eldest princess thought of the title Bai Ningwei had bestowed upon her, and she felt that it was indeed true. Looking around the capital, who didn't know her name, the eldest princess?

It's a pity that this newspaper is only published once every ten days and can only be sold in the capital. It would be great if it could be published every day and sold nationwide.

When the eldest princess was feeling very happy, her daughter Wang Ling came in after paying her respects.

"Greetings to mother."

The eldest princess gets a headache when she sees her daughter.

"Why are you back again?"

Wang Ling got married three years ago, but she relied on the fact that her mother was the eldest princess and she was a princess, and would go back to her parents' home whenever she was unhappy in her husband's family.

In the past, the eldest princess didn’t think there was anything wrong with her daughter’s behavior. After all, she was her own daughter. As long as she didn’t commit treason, she, as her mother, could handle anything for her.

But now, she is an emotional mentor and spiritual godmother. Her own daughter runs back to her parents' home every day. Isn't this clearly sabotaging her?

"Look at you, you've been married for three years and you're still so willful. When will you take over the household responsibilities from your mother-in-law?"

"Why take care of the household expenses? Whoever wants to take care of it can do so."

Wang Ling became impatient and retorted, but didn't want to talk more about his own affairs, so he simply changed the subject.

"Mother, when my daughter returned home, she saw a young man standing outside the door, holding a blanket. Who is that?"

The eldest princess's attention was indeed diverted, and she glanced at her with a smile.

"He's a debt collector just like you."

"What kind of person brings bedding with him when he comes to collect a debt?"

Wang Ling became curious and asked questions.

Nanny Qi repeated what she had just said, making Wang Ling laugh so hard that he fell backwards.

"This guy is so interesting, hahaha, is he really planning to sleep on the floor outside the princess's mansion?"

The eldest princess also laughed uncontrollably, but she finally stopped laughing. She remembered her daughter's important business and patted the back of Wang Ling's hand lovingly.

"Mother invites you to dinner today. After dinner, go home before dark. After all, you are married now, so you can't act so willfully anymore."

Wang Ling's brief happiness immediately vanished, and she never uttered a word about wanting a divorce.

Divorce was a serious matter, and even if she was from a royal family, she couldn't just do whatever she wanted. Furthermore, the eldest princess had specifically requested an imperial decree to grant her marriage in order to highlight her uncle, the emperor's, preference.

The eldest princess didn't let her stay overnight, so Wang Ling lost her mood and left the princess's mansion without eating.

After getting on the carriage, she didn't want to go back, so she told her servants to go to Bai Liangchuan's bookstore.

In the bookstore, Bai Liangchuan handed the manuscript to Chen Xu, complaining in a low voice with a bit of grievance and pity.

"Brother Chen, you've really screwed me today. What if the princess doesn't give me anything? Am I really going to sleep on the floor outside the princess's mansion?"

Chen Xu glanced over the manuscript written by the eldest princess. It was just a passage from the women's ring copied in his own way. It was useless.

Now that she has been exposed to a wider world, she naturally understands that most of the women's rules that she used to regard as the golden rule are actually a bunch of shit.

However, this does not affect the fact that it is still the spiritual cornerstone of women in this world.

She handed the manuscript to the typesetter before turning around to comfort her silly boss.

"Young Master, how could I cheat you? The Queen has already said that the Princess needs to be coaxed. Who in our bookstore is qualified to coax her? Only you. And I asked you to bring bedding, just for show. She won't really let you sleep on the street. Her princess mansion is so big, if she really doesn't have anything to give you, she will arrange a guest room for you."

Bai Liangchuan thought that what he said was correct, and he cast aside his previous awkwardness that had embarrassed him outside.

"I misjudged you. I apologize and will treat you to hotpot tonight. I asked Baishan to freeze the mutton and also prepared a pot of flower wine..."

Chen Xu looked at him jokingly and couldn't help but teasing him.

"How many times have you cooked this month? Eunuch An just left for a long trip. Are you sure you don't want to save money so that you don't have to live a tight life in the future?"

"Ah, this..."

Bai Liangchuan touched the back of his neck uncomfortably, trying to avoid the topic.

"My dear, with your ability as a housekeeper, I think it's time for you to get a wife to help you manage the accounts."

Chen Xu was just joking unintentionally, and before Bai Liangchuan could react, someone at the door started talking.

"It seems this is Mr. Bai? Looking at your appearance, you're still unmarried?"

The person who came was Wang Ling. She didn't expect to hear gossip as soon as she walked in. For some reason, hearing that Bai Liangchuan was still unmarried, she actually wanted to tease him.

Perhaps it was because Bai Liangden's eyes were too pure, unlike those of other people in Kyoto, that they seemed particularly precious and made people feel favorable towards him.

Bai Liangchuan saw that the visitor was dressed like a wealthy or noble man, so he pushed Chen Xu. Although he was the owner, everything in the store was run by Chen Xu, and he didn't even have the power to collect money.

Because Chen Xu was afraid that he would use the money to buy snacks.

Chen Xu didn't know Wang Ling either, so he went forward to greet her politely. However, in Wang Ling's eyes, Chen Xu was just a short guy and was not worthy of her attention at all, so she simply ignored him.

"I am Princess Ruiping—Wang Ling. My mother and Consort De are on good terms, so I think we could be closer."

Wang Ling finished speaking and started to pull Bai Liangchuan upstairs to the studio, which made him feel bewildered. He didn't understand what was going on with Wang Ling's mother, his sister, and the network of relationships between him and Wang Ling.

Chen Xu took the opportunity to mouth to him, saying that she was the daughter of the eldest princess.

Bai Liangchuan turned around hastily, watching Chen Xu's mouth opening and closing, and understood that she was eating the boar's fish???

This is all a mess.

Bai Liangchuan couldn't understand, but he understood one thing: Chen Xu had thrown him to this princess.

But he has no idea how to deal with the other party.

Wang Ling asked as he pulled the person upstairs.

"My mother told me that your newspaper doesn't discriminate between men and women. As long as the article you submit is interesting enough, it will be published in the newspaper. Is that true?"

"Yes, yes. And there's a certain amount of royalties."

Bai Liangchuan was a bit of a stutterer, and he wasn't good at chatting with strange women. This was completely different from him being a brother on the spot.

Chen Xu, who was following behind, looked at Wang Ling's meaningful smile, and thought about some rumors in the circle, and felt that Bai Liangchuan was in trouble this time.
