No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 412 Meeting by chance, fooling Zheng Jingchuan!

On the other side, Liu Ruxia took the girl out of the Shang's study, got into the carriage and sat down, the smile on her face gradually faded.

The little girl beside her knew that her mood these days was not as good as she showed, so she didn't dare to say anything, but just looked at her carefully.

Liu Ruxia raised her head and saw the little girl's expression, she chuckled lightly and said, "What are you looking at?"

The little girl quickly lowered her head, and said softly: "Miss, the master and the eldest son don't like that... Second Miss."

Liu Ruxia sighed lightly, and said: "Whether you like it or not, after all, my sister is the real lady of the Shangshu Mansion, the biological daughter and sister of my father and elder brother, and I am still an outsider after all."

"So what? Second Miss just came back from the countryside, she doesn't know anything, and she looks like that... The girl is going to be the young wife of the Duke's Mansion." The little girl complimented quickly.

Speaking of Zheng Jingchuan, the sixth son of Duke Cheng's mansion, the expression on Liu Ruxia's face softened a bit.

Although Zheng Jingchuan is not the eldest grandson of Duke Cheng's mansion, and it is impossible to inherit the title of Duke Cheng in the future, he is the direct son of Duke Cheng's son, and life will not be bad in the future.If it was in the past, Liu Ruxia probably looked down on Zheng Jingchuan. After all, the Liu family originally wanted to marry someone like the second son of the Luo family.

But Princess Changzhao implicitly stated that the Luo family would not propose marriage to the second son for the time being, and to put it bluntly, she actually looked down on the Liu family.But because of this matter of birth, Liu Ruxia's status will inevitably plummet, even if the Liu family still regards her as a daughter, outsiders may not think so.

If she couldn't get married with Zheng Jingchuan first, the Liu family might really send her away or marry her off as a casual marriage tool.

Liu Ruxia knew that Liu Ruoqiu was the one who was most wronged by what happened back then, and she was the one who benefited the most.She had sympathy and guilt for Liu Ruoqiu in her heart, but she could not ruin her future life because of this sympathy and guilt.

So she had to find the best home for herself before Liu Ruoqiu gained a firm foothold in the Liu family.She didn't want to murder Liu Ruoqiu, but she would not back down either.

It's just that the gate of Cheng Guogong's mansion is not easy to enter. Originally, Zheng Jingchuan was somewhat interested in her, but at that time she looked down on Zheng Jingchuan and naturally ignored him.Now that he has softened his attitude, although Zheng Jingchuan doesn't care, the test between Cheng Guogong and Cheng Guogong's wife is not so easy.

From their point of view, her willingness to marry Zheng Jingchuan is not sincere at all, she is just looking at the family background of Duke Cheng's mansion.

Cheng Guogong's mansion is one of the most famous families in Shangyong, why should the most favored grandson marry a fake daughter?

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the tea house on the street, Liu Ruxia got off the carriage and went upstairs, Zheng Jingchuan was already waiting in the upstairs wing.

Seeing Liu Ruxia coming in, Zheng Jingchuan immediately got up and greeted him, "Miss Ruxia."

Liu Ruxia lowered her eyes slightly, and said, "Master Zheng has been waiting for a long time."

Zheng Jingchuan waved his hands again and again, and said, "I've just arrived too, Ruxia, I... I've already made an agreement with my parents, and we will come to Chengguo's mansion to propose marriage in two days. You, you really want to marry me ?”

Liu Ruxia's cheeks were slightly red, and she hummed lightly before saying: "I'm an embarrassing status now, Mr. Zheng still doesn't despise me, I really..."

Zheng Jingchuan said with a smile: "Don't say that, no matter what your status is, you are still you. I'm just an unworthy dude. I'm very happy that you are willing to marry me."

Although Zheng Jingchuan was a bit arrogant, he still knew how important he was.He never compared himself with brothers Luo Jinyan and Wei Changting, and he didn't even have the slightest jealousy towards the sons of Duke Cheng who were better than him.

Naturally, such a person would never want to marry a famous girl such as Su Rui, Ruan Yueli, etc. He didn't hold any grudges when Liu Ruxia treated him coldly before, but now Liu Ruxia is close to him and is willing to marry him. He doesn't think too much about it.

Liu Ruxia was a little uneasy, and asked, "Where is Mrs. Shizi..."

It was not Cheng Guogong and his wife that Cheng Guogong's mansion looked down on Liu Ruxia the most, but Zheng Jingchuan's own mother, Mrs. Cheng Guogong's son.Every mother regards her child as a treasure. Even if the child is not up to date, she naturally cannot tolerate others taking advantage of her son or showing false affection to her son.

Zheng Jingchuan said with a cheerful smile: "Don't worry, my grandmother agreed, and my mother will naturally not say anything."

Only then did Liu Ruxia nod her head, and said softly, "Thank you, Mr. Zheng."

Zheng Jingchuan rubbed his forehead and smiled nonchalantly: "Thank you? We will be a family in the future, and I will treat you well."

Liu Ruxia nodded silently, and the atmosphere in the wing room gradually became somewhat ambiguous.

In the next few days, Anlan Academy continued to receive new students who signed up every day, preparing for the early opening of the academy.Luo Junyao only went there for the first three days, and left Zhang Jingyu and others to manage the next few days.

The number of new students in the college is not as bad as they thought, and if they are all counted together, the total number is similar to that of previous years or even more.

After all, according to the original admission standards, the students who are eligible to enter Anlan Academy are less than [-]% of the students who went to Yonggui girls.If you count all the school-age girls in Shangyong, it is even less than one ten-thousandth.

The Luo family began to prepare for Luo Jinyan and Su Rui's marriage, and Luo Junyao naturally had to go back to help from time to time.The Su family managed the Luo family in an orderly manner, and Luo Junyao sent people from the Prince Regent's Mansion to help, so everything was prepared in an orderly manner.

On this day, Luo Junyao was dragged by Qin Ning and Xu Xinyu to choose jewelry at the most famous jewelry pavilion in Shangyong.

When the shopkeeper saw these three distinguished guests, he was naturally overjoyed and hurriedly took out the best collection in the store and asked the three of them to choose.

Luo Junyao boredly played with a hairpin in his hand, and said: "It's not interesting, what jewelry you want can't be sent to the mansion, you have to come out and choose it yourself?"

Qin Ning smiled and said: "What's the difference? The feeling of sending her to the mansion to pick it out is completely different from shopping and picking it out. Xinyu is going to enter the new college soon, shouldn't we give her some admission gifts? There will be a while before Mr. Luo and A Rui's wedding, we also need to choose new clothes to pack."

Luo Junyao looked at the well-behaved Xu Xinyu, nodded and said, "Ah Ning is right, you should give Xinyu a school entrance gift."

Xu Xinyu hurriedly said: "Little aunt, don't listen to sister Ning's nonsense, we are here to choose accessories for the wedding. Sister Ah Ning said that we can be the wedding girl for sister Su Rui, and we must dress up beautifully Bright."

Luo Junyao was a little surprised, "A Rui invited you to marry me?"

Qin Ning snorted softly and said, "It's not easy for a girl from the Su family to marry, Mrs. Su's natal family is not in Shangyong, and the others are not qualified enough, so naturally we are going to marry?"

Luo Junyao thought about it, but still didn't ask Su Rui's girlfriends and friends.

Everyone has difficulties, and women in this era are completely unable to make decisions on their own.

She believed in Su Rui's vision of making friends. Those best friends might not really be alienated from her because of those gossip, but those girls could not ignore the opinions of their family members.

Just listen to Qin Ning continue: "Besides, the Princess of the county will send the marriage in person, how dare the Su family refuse?"

Luo Jun sneered and said, "It's about, how wonderful is it for Princess Anyang to send the marriage in person?"

Qin Ning pulled Xu Xinyu and said, "There is also Xinyu."

Xu Xinyu nodded and said, "Well, there is me."

Luo Jun shook his head and said with a smile: "Whatever you fancy today, I will pay for it."

Not waiting for Xu Xinyu to refuse, Qin Ning immediately said: "The regent princess is still grand!"

"..." Xu Xinyu looked at her cousin silently.

Cousin, are you really trying to trick my aunt?
"You're right, it seems that there are really no good things." After choosing for a long time, Qin Ning also said a little bored.

As the beloved daughter of Princess Changling, Qin Ning's vision is naturally not low.I made a special trip to see that although these things are all high-quality goods, they are nothing more than that. I am inevitably a little disappointed.

The shopkeeper, who was coming in with a box in his hand, was also very apologetic when he heard the words, "I'm really sorry for disappointing the princess. It's just that in the past few months, all good things have been bought, and these things are all for sale. It is unavoidable that there are some... I hope the princess and the two princesses will forgive me."

Qin Ning squinted at him and said: "You mean, your family's business is too good, and the princess is late?"

The shopkeeper smiled apologetically: "This... I would like to thank the Prince Regent's Palace and the General's Palace for taking care of me."

The three people who were sitting suddenly understood that in the past few months, Luo Junyao and Xie Yan got married first, and then Luo Jinyan and Su Rui got married. The real good things from all the merchants in Shangyonghuang City were almost taken away.

These things are small ones, which are time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is true that they cannot be made up so quickly.

The shopkeeper continued: "Isn't it the beginning of spring? In a few days, the store will bring in a batch of things from other places. If the three of you don't dislike it, then I will personally send some to the three's house. I don't know what to do?"

Luo Junyao didn't make things difficult for him, and said with a smile: "It's fine, then you can send it to the residence of the two eldest princesses, and when they finish choosing, come to the Prince Regent's residence to settle the bill."

The shopkeeper was overjoyed, and made another big deal in advance, and the smile on his face was about to overflow.

As a person in the jewelry business, he really likes these generous princesses and wives.

"Princess, don't worry, the things in our house are the most exquisite, and the two princesses are satisfied with the safekeeping."

Luo Junyao had also bought many things from their house before, so he knew that what the shopkeeper said was true.He nodded and said, "Okay, then we'll wait."

The shopkeeper escorted the three of them downstairs with smiling faces all the way, and when they reached the stairs, they saw a few people standing in the lobby downstairs.

The people in the lobby obviously saw them too, and they were startled for a moment before they hurriedly came forward to pay respects, "My daughter Liu Ruxia has seen the Regent Princess, the Princess Anyang, and the Princess Huaiyang."

Liu Ruxia took the lead alone, and the others also came forward to salute after they came back to their senses.

Luo Junyao smiled at Liu Ruoqiu who was obviously surprised, and then said: "There is no need to be polite, everyone get up."

"Thank you, princess."

Luo Junyao glanced at the crowd, and said curiously: "Miss Liu and Zheng..."

Seeing this, Zheng Jingchuan smiled winkingly and said, "Princess, I'm six at home, Zheng Jingchuan."

"Why are Miss Liu and Mr. Sixth Zheng here? And Miss Zheng? Is this the new Second Miss Liu?" Along with Zheng Jingchuan and Liu Ruxia, apart from Liu Ruoqiu, there was also Cheng Guogong's mansion who was obviously a little unhappy. Miss Zheng Jingxi.

Zheng Jingchuan said with a smile: "Back to the princess, I will accompany the two girls and the eldest sister of the Liu family out for a stroll."

Qin Ning leaned against Luo Junyao, with a sly smile in her eyes, "I heard that Cheng Guogong's mansion and Liu's family are going to get married, it seems that a good thing is coming soon?"

Both Zheng Jingchuan and Liu Ruxia were obviously a little embarrassed, Zheng Jingchuan said in a low voice: "Yesterday, Cheng Guogong's mansion has come to propose a marriage."

Everyone was not surprised. If the marriage had not been formally settled, a large group of people would not have appeared in the jewelry pavilion like this.

It's just that the Zheng and Liu families have done this matter a little quietly. Anyway, neither Luo Junyao nor Qin Ning has heard of it.

"Then congratulations to both of you." Luo Jun said with a smile.

Zheng Jingchuan cupped his hands and said: "Thank you, Princess, and I will invite Princess Wang and the prince to show their face and come over for a glass of thin wine."

Luo Jun shook his head and said: "Cheng Guo's mansion is holding a happy event, how can the prince and I not come?"

After hearing this, the smile on Zheng Jingchuan's face became wider, and Liu Ruxia's delicate face also turned slightly red.

On the contrary, Zheng Jingxi's complexion became more and more ugly, but Liu Ruoqiu's expression was indifferent, as if he was completely out of it.

"This is the second girl of the Liu family?" Luo Junyao walked to Liu Ruoqiu's side and asked softly.

Liu Ruoqiu hastily bowed her knees again, "I have seen the regent princess."

As if seeing Liu Ruoqiu for the first time, Luo Junyao took her hand and said with a smile: "I didn't know the girl came back before, but I couldn't add a congratulatory gift. After all, today is not too late."

After finishing speaking, Luo Jun shook his hand and took off a pearl hairpin on his head and gently inserted it in Liu Ruoqiu's hair.

Liu Ruoqiu was startled, and immediately wanted to refuse.

Luo Junyao raised his hand to hold her hand, and said with a smile: "It's a happy event for a girl to come back, and there should be a gift for a happy event. Don't you think I'm too casual?"

Liu Ruoqiu had no choice but to say in a low voice, "Thank you, Wangfei."

Luo Jun shook his head and said: "Mr. Zhang said that the second girl intends to study at Anlan Academy?"

Hearing this, Liu Ruoqiu's expression darkened, she begged her father and elder brother, as well as her mother and grandmother these days, but she got nothing except a few reprimands.

My father said that she wanted to study medicine because she was not doing her job properly, and she didn't know boudoir training, so she had to study more boudoir classics.

The mother said that she had already reached the age of marriage, and she had to learn the etiquette quickly and adjust her appearance so that she could be seen by others, so that she could find a good family.

While talking about finding a better family than Duke Cheng's mansion, the mother admitted in frustration that it was impossible for her to find a better family than Duke Cheng's mansion.I can only order the girl to put various things on her face every day, and let her teach her various etiquette and boudoir lessons, trying to find a better one while she is just at her age.

Liu Ruxia opened the mouth and said: "Princess Qi, my father said that the second younger sister is still weak just after returning, and has already invited a husband to teach the second younger sister at home."

Luo Junyao looked back at Liu Ruxia with a smile, and said, "Miss Liu Er grew up in the countryside, but she was able to teach herself. Mr. Zhang also spoke highly of her. Could it be that Mr. Liu is worried that Anlan Academy can't teach Miss Liu Er well?" ? Or, is Liu Shangshu afraid that this princess will spoil the second girl?"

When Liu Ruxia heard the word "countryside", the expression on her face froze for a moment, and she quickly calmed down and said, "How dare my father? It's just that the second sister just came back, so maybe my parents are reluctant to let the second sister study in the academy every day, right? Second sister, don’t you think so?”

Liu Ruoqiu looked up at Liu Ruxia, and said in a low voice: "I heard that you can go home every day to study in the academy. I want to study in the academy."

"..." The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

Zheng Jingxi, who was standing by the side, frowned, and said, "Since the second girl likes to go to the academy, then go to the academy. Everyone studies in the academy, and the second girl invites a husband at home, so it's a bit lonely. Sixth brother, dont you agree?"

Zheng Jingchuan also nodded and said: "Jingxi is right, it's good that the second girl wants to go to the academy, and Jingxi can take care of her while still in the academy. If... Master Liu is worried, why don't I go and talk to him?"

Zheng Jingchuan didn't see that Liu Ruoxia's expression was a little bit bad. He helped Liu Ruoqiu to speak first because his younger sister expressed his opinion first, and secondly, Liu Ruxia always said that he was sorry for Liu Ruoqiu. In this case, they helped Liu Ruoqiu more. Shouldn't this debt be repaid?
Luo Junyao slightly raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Can the sixth son go to Liu Shangshu and help the second girl Liu?"

Zheng Jingchuan nodded without thinking: "Of course, Miss Liu Er is Ruxia's younger sister, and she will be my younger sister in the future. There is nothing wrong with being a family."

Luo Jun shook his head, and he was very appreciative in his words, "Sixth Young Master is still straightforward, so please trouble Sixth Young Master. Mr. Zhang said that Miss Liu Er is very talented. It's my first time to be a mountain leader. If there is one less talented student It's kind of sad."

Zheng Jingchuan responded loudly: "Princess, don't worry, leave it to me."

"Okay." Luo Jun said with a smile.

Qin Ning and Xu Xinyu looked at Luo Junyao with admiration, Liu Ruoqiu was also obviously surprised, but more joyful and grateful.

Liu Ruxia bit the corner of her lips, her eyes were half-downcast and she didn't speak.

Standing by the side, Zheng Jingxi looked at his sixth brother's confident face, glanced at Liu Ruxia lightly, raised his head and silently rolled his eyes.

idiot!

How could such a fool be her brother?
