Some people are lucky and have open-minded parents, such as Chu Zeming and Feng Yizheng.

But some people are not so lucky, such as Sun Yu who is hiding in the Princess's Mansion at this time.

"How come you have time to come to my house today?" Meixiang said with a smile, holding a tea bowl. "This is the first time I see you since I came to the capital. It's really not easy, not easy."

"Oh, don't mention it!" Sun Yu laughed bitterly when talking about this topic, "I really can't stay in this house. If this continues, I'm going to go crazy."

Meixiang was full of curiosity. What could possibly stump this young ruler? At such a young age, he stood out from a group of elders and took the position of head of the family.

In a short period of time, he led the Sun family to expand its business territory, making those who were waiting to see the joke shut up.

"What else can I do? They urge me to get married every day. I'm so scared that I don't even dare to go home."

"Ha," Meixiang couldn't help laughing when she heard this, "I didn't expect you guys would also have the trouble of being urged to get married?!"

I have always thought that being urged to get married is something that young people in the 21st century have to deal with. I never expected that in ancient times when even food and clothing had not been fully solved, young people also suffered the same sweet distress.

Sun Yu looked up at the girl opposite him. She was pretty, sweet, and had an excellent family background, but her personality was completely different from those young ladies from aristocratic families.

Her every frown and smile is so attractive. If he didn't dare to dream about it before, does he have the ability to compete now?

Suddenly, an inexplicable courage rose from the bottom of his heart, and Sun Yu boldly spoke directly.

"Sister Xiang'er, otherwise you will take me..."

Looking at Sun Yu's red face, Mei Xiang felt even more strange. What happened today? He was talking in a way that made it hard for people to understand.

"Well, what do I do to you? When did you start stuttering?"

"I......"

Suddenly, an urgent male voice came from the door, interrupting what Sun Yu was about to say: "Shut up!"

Before he finished speaking, Situ Yidong had already strode into the house and gave Sun Yu a warning look with a cold face.

Turning to Meixiang, he smiled again, "Sister Xiang'er, these are freshly baked cakes. I saw a lot of people queuing up, so they must taste good, so I brought one for you. Come and try it and see if it tastes good."

The speed of changing faces is breathtaking and truly unique.

Seeing that Meixiang's attention was attracted, Sun Yu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He had missed the best opportunity to talk about this topic and it was difficult for him to open his mouth again.

In a place where Meixiang couldn't see, a cold light flashed quickly in Situ Yidong's eyes.

He secretly thanked God that he arrived at the right time and did not let Sun Yu finish the sentence. Otherwise, he could not guarantee that Sun Yu's head would still be on his head.

Looking at Meixiang eating with relish in front of me, her cheeks bulging, she looks like a squirrel stealing pine cones. She is so cute no matter how you look at her.

Situ Yidong suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of crisis. There were too many people staring at Meixiang, including Chu Zeming, Sun Yu, the unwilling Feng Yizhen, and...

He has to work harder to keep a close eye on his wife and protect her. If someone else steals her away, where can he go to cry?

Since then, Situ Yidong has not only become a frequent visitor to the Princess's Mansion, but has almost become her personal accessory, which she carries with her wherever she goes.

The frequent comings and goings of young men like Situ Yidong have given the Princess's Mansion another topic of conversation for people in the capital after the ginseng incident.

"Miss," Xiao San stamped her feet, her face full of anger and indignation, "You don't know how those people outside gossip about you. What they say is too unpleasant."

The young lady is such a good person and she is not married yet, how could she allow them to arrange things like this?

"Oh, there is such a thing?" Meixiang put down the book she was reading, looked up, her eyes full of interest.

"Where can we hear them? Should we go out and listen? See what they say? How about that?"

"Miss," Xiao San stamped her feet, "They are talking about you!"

"I know, that's why I want to go and listen to what they say."

"It's better not to go, so as to avoid making yourself unhappy. What's the point?"

Xiao San muttered to himself, and seeing Meixiang stand up and walk towards the door, he stomped his legs hard a few times again and followed her.

In the busiest teahouse in the capital, Meixiang, her master and her two servants found a corner to sit down, ordered a pot of floral tea and three small plates of snacks, and listened to the discussions of the people around them with smiles.

"Hey, have you heard? This eldest princess is not only brave, but also very filial."

At the table on the front left, there were five middle-aged men in their thirties or forties. One of them, with a mouth full of yellow teeth and sparse hair, was the first to open the conversation.

"Hmm? Is it about the hundred-year-old ginseng? I heard that it is of top quality and priceless." Another classmate at the table threw a peanut into his mouth and continued the conversation while chewing it with a crunching sound.

"You heard it wrong, it's not a hundred years old, it's ten thousand years old. It's said that it has eyes, nose and mouth, and it's a ginseng spirit." Another person interrupted.

"Tsk, are you talking nonsense?"

"Why? You don't believe it? This is what the neighbor of my cousin's neighbor's third aunt's daughter said. That person is very well-connected, and what he says is absolutely reliable."

The person who said this was like a fighting rooster, with his head held high and his nostrils pointed to the sky.

"That's right. I heard that Patriarch Feng was so frightened that he personally sent her back to the palace overnight."

"Yes, yes, I saw it too. It was such a big scene that I was so scared that I couldn't sleep for half the night."

As soon as these words came out, the people around nodded. The Feng family head did not deliberately conceal his whereabouts that day. Although it was late, there were still many people who saw him along the way.

Meixiang smiled. People only have a mouth, so they can say whatever they want.

Then, at the table on the other side, a discussion on another topic began.

"Hey, what's wrong with all the outstanding boys in the capital?" a middle-aged woman in a khaki shirt spoke up.

The owner of this teahouse knows how to run a business. Anyone who comes in can order anything or not. Even if they don't order anything and just come in to sit, they are very welcome.

There is a big bucket in every corner of the lobby all year round, providing free boiled water all year round. In spring and summer, it is filled with cold boiled water, and in autumn and winter, it is filled with hot water, which can be taken at will.

Therefore, this place is always crowded with people, dragon fish and all kinds of news. This is also the biggest reason why Meixiang chose this place today.

"That's right. In this huge capital city, there are more than one girl in the Princess's Mansion. Why are all their eyes on that one?" Another auntie sitting next to her spoke up.

"This is so worrying. I thought I could take advantage of this opportunity to make something big, but what happened? Tsk tsk tsk tsk..."

Judging from what she said, this auntie is most likely a matchmaker.

Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, someone asked, "Why? Matchmaker Li, you haven't opened yet? This is not your style."

"Oh, don't mention it." Matchmaker Li sighed deeply, "Ever since those gentlemen returned to the capital, the young ladies have never taken their eyes off them, just like their eyes have never left their master."

As he spoke, he raised his chin towards the direction of the Princess's Palace.

Hearing this, Xiao San was so angry that she slammed the table and was about to stand up to argue with them, but Meixiang quickly stopped her.

"Miss, are you just going to let them arrange things like this?" Xiao San was so angry that she stamped her feet and shouted in a low voice.

Liu Xiaomei held Meixiang's medicine box and nodded. How could such an upright person like the young lady allow them to ruin her reputation?

"Quiet, quiet, be patient, and listen carefully to what they say."

At this time, someone else at that table interrupted the conversation at Meixiang's table.

"What do you mean by keeping your eyes on that person? Come on, tell me in detail."

Listening to and discussing gossip is something that men, women, young and old always enjoy and never get tired of.

"I wonder if you have noticed?" The first person suddenly lowered her voice. The people at her table had gleams in their eyes, and they all lowered their bodies, stretched their necks, and put their ears closer.

Meixiang couldn't help but move over there so that she could listen more carefully.

Seeing this, Xiao San and Liu Xiao Mei were so anxious that they almost threw the bowls and flipped the table. How could anyone listen to their own gossip with such relish? !
