Chapter 10 The Male and Female Protagonists Are Here

At this time, everyone turned around and found that two princes had arrived.

The one who spoke was the eldest prince Xiao Jingyi. He had a face as white as jade, eyes and eyebrows as picturesque as paintings, and he was wearing a clear blue brocade robe. He walked towards them with a smile on his face.

The prince beside him was wearing a beige and white brocade robe with cloud patterns, a golden jade belt around his waist, and a dragon-patterned auspicious mutton-fat jade pendant. The boy's childishness had faded, and his dark eyes still contained a little clarity.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! His Royal Highness the First Prince!"

"No gift!"

"Thank you, Your Highness."

"I wonder what the Crown Prince and the First Prince are doing here at the General's Mansion?" Gu Xun was also puzzled as to why these two giant Buddhas came.

"It was my father who specially asked me and my brother to come here to congratulate him." Crown Prince Xiao Xijin explained.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern~"

"Okay, since it's congratulations, General Gu doesn't need to be restrained, and everyone can just do as they please." Xiao Jingyi said on the side.

[The eldest prince? Xiao Jingyi? This is the male protagonist!] Gu Jiangmeng couldn't help but open his eyes wide to look.

The Xiao Jingyi in the book gives people the feeling of being handsome, gentle and elegant.

Male lead? Ye Shu and Gu Xun are confused again, what does it mean?
Ye Shu suddenly remembered that when Gu Jiangmeng said that Gu Hengyu was framed, it was the eldest prince who saved him. But then Gu Jiangmeng said "but", but what?
[He is really handsome and elegant! He is worthy of being the male lead! But now I am the supporting role, so to me, Xiao Jingyi is the villain!]

Villain? The eldest prince is bad!
[When the third brother was framed, it seemed that the eldest prince rescued him, but in fact, it was the eldest prince who designed it! Fortunately, the third brother listened to his father and mother and did not drink. ]

Ye Shu and Gu Xun looked at each other, with shock and a little relief in their eyes.

Unexpectedly, it was the eldest prince who wanted to frame Hengyu. Fortunately, Hengyu escaped.

"This must be Miss Five!"

Seeing Xiao Jingyi walking towards him, Gu Jiangmeng was a little stunned.

[He is really handsome, and a hero saves a beautiful girl. No wonder the heroine falls in love with him at first sight!]

"She's really pretty!"

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness."

Ye Shu heard her daughter's thoughts and became wary of Xiao Jingyi, but she did not show it.

"The Prime Minister has arrived with his family!"

Everyone's eyes turned away immediately.

Prime Minister Shen Xu arrived with his wife and daughter.

This general's mansion is indeed a favorite of the emperor. Not only did the two princes come, but even the prime minister came.

"Shen Xiang~"

"Your humble servant greets the two Your Highnesses."

"I, your humble servant, pay my respects to the two Your Highnesses."

"No need to be so polite, Minister Shen."

[It’s the heroine! The heroine is here!]

Gu Jiangmeng has just replaced a new part of the unknown plot and found out that the hero and heroine met at her own full moon banquet.

Another heroine?
Although Gu Xun and Ye Shu didn't understand, they guessed that the male and female protagonists Gu Jiangmeng mentioned should be a couple.

[Shen Qingwei falls into the water, Xiao Jingyi saves her heroically, and the two fall in love at first sight. No, we must stop them!]

Shen Qingwei? Is she the Prime Minister's daughter?
After hearing this, Ye Shu looked at Gu Xun, and they both understood what he meant.

[How to approach Shen Qingwei?]

Gu Jiangmeng thought about it, then waved his arms towards Shen Qingwei.

"Did Jiang Meng think about the future?"

[Mom is so smart! Yes, yes, yes! Jiang Meng was thinking about the front, where Shen Qingwei was!] Ye Shu hugged Gu Jiang Meng and walked towards Shen Qingwei.

"Mrs. Shen~"

"Mrs. Gu."

"Who is this?"

Judging from her hairstyle, the girl in front of me is not yet of marriageable age. She has a pair of dark eyes under her crescent-shaped eyebrows, and a cherry mouth under her small and tall nose.

Although Ye Shu guessed from Gu Jiangmeng that this person was Shen Qingwei, he still asked.

"This is my daughter Shen Qingwei."

"Qingwei greets Madam Gu." Shen Qingwei bowed slightly again.

"My daughter seems to like Miss Shen very much, so I brought her here." Ye Shu smiled and hugged Gu Jiangmeng forward.

Gu Jiangmeng then smiled happily at Shen Qingwei.

[Shen Qingwei is also very pretty, no wonder so many people like her. ]

Shen Qingwei's heart almost melted when she saw such a cute little girl smiling at her.

"So cute~ Madam Gu, can I hug her?"

"of course can."

Shen Qingwei took Gu Jiangmeng and held her carefully.

【Beautiful sister stickers!】

[If Shen Qingwei hadn't fallen in love with Xiao Jingyi first, would she have completely fallen in love with the second brother?]

Ye Shu: Second brother? Is the second brother Jiang Meng is talking about her own brat Gu Changce?
Ever since Gu Changce followed a wandering knight out to learn martial arts, he hasn't been home for more than a year!
What a brat! He has forgotten about this family. If he comes back, I will break his legs!
*
Soon, the female relatives followed Ye Shu into the back hall.

Maybe it's to please, but everyone has to admit that the fifth daughter of the general's family is cute.

"Look, Fifth Miss's face is so chubby, and even her eyes are like grapes. Madam Gu must have eaten a lot of grapes when she was pregnant~"

"One look at Miss Fifth's ears, and you can tell she's a blessed person~"

Gu Jiangmeng's ears were almost callused from hearing so much praise that he couldn't help but yawn a few times.

"My little girl is sleepy. Someone, come and carry the fifth girl down."

The wet nurse came forward and carried Gu Jiangmeng away.

As soon as Gu Jiangmeng left, the topic began to change.

"Madam Gu, I heard that the eldest son also participated in this autumn examination. I wonder how he is doing?"

As soon as this person spoke, everyone pricked up their ears and listened carefully. After all, if the general's son could pass the exam, wouldn't he have a bright future?
Ye Shu naturally had to be modest and pretended to be ignorant. He sighed and said, "I don't know what will happen. Maybe I can pass the imperial examination."

"Madam Gu, don't worry. Your eldest son is now a scholar. Even if he fails, he can still find a government position! If he passes, that's even better. He can find a better government position!"

"That's right, Madam Gu, don't worry!"

Ye Shu listened to this and pretended to be relieved, "That's right, thank you for your comfort."

At this time, another official's wife continued to ask questions.

"Mrs. Gu, is the eldest son seventeen this year?"

"Sixteen is the age of dancing elephants."

"I wonder if there is any marriage?"

"Never."

"Madam, my third daughter is coming of age this year. I wonder if Madam Gu has any ideas? I think the eldest son is already a scholar. If you don't mind..."

As soon as these words were spoken, the people around him were full of contempt.

The person who inquired about this matter was the wife of the Chief Censor, who was only a fifth-rank official, and she had the audacity to marry the eldest son of the General of the Zhen Army!
Could it be that they are sure that Gu Yize will not pass the imperial examination, so they dare to propose this marriage?
How could Ye Shu not know what she meant? But these people are indispensable in the officialdom. Now that one person said so, who knows how many others have the same idea?
