Zhao Chenghe said arrogantly, "Yes, stop using your status to scare people. We don't need you to meddle in our business."
Rong Shen said lightly, "Then follow me to the government office and we'll discuss right and wrong in court."
Suddenly, someone stood up from the tea table not far away and walked over here, whispering to Li Xingxian.
Although he was not familiar with Rong Shen, he was from the Imperial College and happened to be acquainted with Li Xingxian, so he came over to tell him.
Li Xingxian's face changed drastically and he looked at Rong Shen in shock, still unable to believe that he would come to such a small teahouse.
Zhao Chenghe was puzzled when he saw this, "Brother Li, what's wrong?"
Li Xingxian whispered in his ear, "This is Rong Shen, the grandson of the Duke of Fuguo. We really can't afford to offend him."
The current Empress Dowager and Concubine De both came from the Fuguo Mansion. How could a Concubine Shu, who was only related to them, compare to them?
As for the Minister of Rites mentioned by Zhao Chenghe, he is indeed a distant relative and has no deterrent effect when used to pressure Rong Shen.
"What? Why would he come to such a small teahouse?" Zhao Chenghe couldn't understand. If it were him, how could he be interested in this teahouse?
Li Xingxian looked unhappy. "How could I not know? Anyway, we can only consider ourselves unlucky when he meddles in our affairs."
Zhao Chenghe immediately admitted his fault, "It's just a small matter, why bother the adults by bringing it to the government office? I admit my fault."
Li Xingxian was upset that he had gotten there first, and immediately apologized to Yang Zhengliu, "I'm sorry, Brother Yang."
Zhao Chenghe also pretended to bow and saluted, "I'm sorry."
Liang Hongshen didn't know Rong Shen's identity yet, so he didn't understand what was going on. But when he saw that both of them had apologized, he quickly admitted his mistake as well.
His family background is not as good as the other two, and he usually relies on their power. He knows that they can't afford to offend the people on the other side.
Rong Shen didn't want to use his family background to pressure others, so he didn't reveal his identity in public, nor did he say anything else. He just left it to Yang Zhengliu.
Yang Zhengliu was too disdainful to argue with these people, nor did he want to get entangled, so he let the matter go after they apologized.
Li Xingxian and the other two no longer had any interest in drinking tea and left in a hurry, just in time to meet the shopkeeper who came to deal with the problem.
The shopkeeper came up and scolded Yang Zhengliu, "How do you do your job? How can you offend the customers? Don't come here again."
"Boss, please give me more..." Yang Zhengliu wanted to fight for it. Although this job was not good, it at least gave him some income.
His family was poor, and as he was a weak scholar, it was difficult for him to find a job, so he really needed this job to supplement the family income.
The exam had just ended yesterday, but he didn't dare to rest, and rushed to work today. He didn't expect to be fired on the first day.
The shopkeeper said coldly, "If it weren't for your hometown, I wouldn't want a weak scholar like you to do odd jobs."
After saying this, the shopkeeper left in a huff, leaving Yang Zhengliu standing there dejectedly, still holding the copper kettle in his hand.
He placed the long-spouted copper kettle on the table and bowed to Rong Shen and the others, "My name is Yang Zhengliu, thank you all for your help."
Rong Shen looked at the back of his burned hand and said, "You're welcome. It's just a small favor. Do you want to go to the clinic to check your injury?"
"Thank you for your concern, it's just a minor injury, no need to bother." Yang Zhengliu was penniless, so how could he dare to go to the clinic.
Su Mo said with concern: "Let's go and take a look. The tea is scalding hot. If it's not handled in time, it may leave hidden dangers."
Huang Yiming also advised, "Go and have a look. If you have any difficulties, tell us and we will be able to help you to some extent."
"Thank you very much, sir. It's really not necessary. Please leave your name. I can't repay you today, but I will come to thank you in the future."
Yang Zhengliulian didn't even dare to ask for the money to pay for their tea. He really couldn't afford it, and it was not easy for him to borrow from his fellow villagers.
Previously, when an elder in his family fell ill, he had borrowed some money from his fellow villagers, but he has not been able to pay it back yet. How could he ask for it again?
Rong Shen took the initiative to invite, "Since Young Master Yang has been dismissed, why don't you just sit down and have a cup of tea with us?"
Chen Zizhuo went straight to Yang Zhengliu and said, "Brother Rong is right. If the shopkeeper doesn't allow Young Master Yang to work, then he can just be a guest."
Yang Zhengliu didn't want to take advantage. "You gentlemen helped me, I should have invited you to drink tea, but I have some money in my pocket..."
Rong Shen had long guessed that Yang Zhengliu had difficulties at home, otherwise why would he rush out to work right after the imperial examination?
He took Yang Zhengliu's dignity into consideration and stopped talking in time. "It's okay. We have heard of Mr. Yang's great name for a long time and have wanted to meet him."
Su Mo echoed, "Yes, we have benefited a lot from reading your articles. We are fortunate to meet you today, so please give me some face."
Rong Shen and his friends invited him warmly and sincerely, so Yang Zhengliu couldn't refuse and sat down to drink tea with them.

Royal Palace, backyard.
Pearl came back after resting for three days.
Amber was even more nervous than her, "Sister Pearl, be careful, you are pregnant now."
Pearl didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "It's okay. You don't need to be so nervous. I'm actually the same as usual."
Amber said: "How can it be the same? You are two people now. You are not allowed to touch each other again in the future."
Zhenzhu comforted her, "It's not that exaggerated. The people in the farm are still working in the fields when they are about to give birth."
Mo Zhaohua just came out and said, "You are not from the manor, so why compare yourself with them? Just listen to Amber."
Pearl went forward to greet him, "Princess, you pamper me like this. People outside will be so envious that they can't even sleep."
Amber smiled and said, "Let them be envious. Who is so lucky to be with such a good master like the princess?"
Mo Zhaohua sighed when he heard this. This was not her good at all. It was clearly the favor they had earned by sacrificing their lives in their previous lives.
There was a swing in the yard. The setting sun was shining on it, which looked quite attractive, so she walked out.
Sitting on the swing, she grabbed the ropes on both sides, while Amber pushed from behind, her skirt fluttering in the wind.
Mo Zhaohua played for a while, then sat on the swing and started chatting, "Zhenzhu, how has Manager Cui treated you after marriage?"
Pearl held the cut fruit in her hand and fed it to her mouth, "My husband listens to my words and does whatever I ask."
After eating, Mo Zhaohua asked again, "Is your relationship okay? I don't want him to treat you well, but it's because you are my personal maid."
"The couple is harmonious..." Pearl's pretty face blushed slightly, "No, it is love. My husband not only respects me, but also dotes on me."
"Is your husband's family dissatisfied with this?" It is normal for a young couple to have a good relationship. What Mo Zhaohua is afraid of is that her husband's family will not like it.
Pearl smiled and said, "No, my mother-in-law told me to treat you well, otherwise she would punish you."
Mo Zhaohua saw that she smiled naturally, and it didn't seem like he was trying to reassure her by only reporting good news and not bad news. "Are you satisfied with Cui Zhuoke?"
Pearl's eyes were red. "I am very satisfied. The princess has found a good marriage for me. My husband and his family are very grateful."
