TV series: Daily life of male supporting role

Time quickly came to the 48th year of Kangxi's reign. The crown prince was restored and Yinzhen was given the title of Prince Heshuo Yong. Everything happened just as he remembered.

On the day of the selection, Nian Gengyao was waiting for his sister at the palace gate.

His sister walked out of the palace empty-handed, and Nian Gengyao was stunned.

How is this going?

When Nian Shilan saw Nian Gengyao, she jumped up and ran towards him. Her personal maid Songzhi was still behind her reminding Nian Shilan: "Miss, pay attention to your manners!"

Hearing this, Nian Shilan stopped, straightened her posture, and slowly walked towards Nian Gengyao.

Nian Gengyao couldn't help but twitch his lips when he saw his sister pretending to be reserved. He never thought that he would raise his sister to have such a lively personality.

"Brother, how come you have time to pick me up today?" Nian Shilan stepped forward and took Nian Gengyao's arm, saying coquettishly.

"I just happened to be free so I came to pick you up. How was the talent show?"

Nian Shilan came away empty-handed and seemed to have lost the election, but her indifferent attitude made her feel that losing the election was not a bad thing.

Nian Shilan's maid Songzhi bowed and replied, "Your Excellency, the Emperor has allowed our young lady to marry freely."

"Really?" Nian Gengyao was shocked.

Nian Shilan nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, brother, please find some time to go see Brother Qi."

When Nian Gengyao heard Nian Shilan say "Brother Qi" in a sweet voice, his heart sank. He hated himself very much for bringing her home in a fit of rage and letting his sister see it!

The brother Qi mentioned by Nian Shilan is Yue Zhongqi, the son of Yue Shenglong, a rare military talent. He admires Yue Zhongqi very much. Unfortunately, when he learned that his sister's heart was hanging on him and Yue Zhongqi fell in love with his sister at first sight, this admiration turned into disgust.

But thinking about it afterwards, Yue Zhongqi was much more reliable than Emperor Yongzheng. At least Yue Zhongqi would not scheme against women.

"Okay, I'll find some time to talk to Yue Zhongqi."

"Hehe!" Nian Shilan got what she wanted, and happily took Nian Gengyao's arm and acted coquettishly, "Then brother, you better make up your mind quickly."

Nian Gengyao became even more upset.

It’s true that women are not allowed to stay in college!

"Okay, but you are not allowed to act so eager to get married in front of outsiders, okay?" Nian Gengyao poked Nian Shilan's forehead with his hand.

Nian Shilan covered her forehead and said perfunctorily, "I know, I know."

"It's still early, I'll take you to eat something delicious."

"Okay, I want to eat crab meat cake."

"Good good."

Nian Gengyao was a loyal minister, and Emperor Kangxi also valued him and now he serves as a cabinet scholar.

However, his military ability was discovered by Emperor Kangxi, who recently intended to have him serve in the Ministry of War.

Zhang Tingyu, who passed the imperial examination in the same year as him, was now transferred to the Ministry of Rites.

It can be said that among this group of Jinshi, he and Zhang Tingyu were the ones with more outstanding abilities and were appreciated by the emperor.

Yue Zhongqi is also in Kyoto now. Nian Gengyao wants to get the two families to arrange their marriage as soon as possible, otherwise when the neighboring countries are ready to make a move, Yue Zhongqi will have to go to the battlefield soon.

When they came back, his sister was almost twenty years old.

In the Qing Dynasty, girls who were still unmarried at the age of 20 would be talked about.

When they arrived at the Sweetheart Shop, Nian Gengyao asked Nian Shilan to stay in the car while he went in to buy crab roe crisps.

Nian Shilan was bored in the car, so she secretly lifted a corner of the bamboo curtain and looked outside.

Songzhi quickly lowered the bamboo curtain and said, "Miss, there are many people outside, please don't look."

Nian Shilan looked at Songzhi anxiously and lowered the bamboo curtain, "Okay, then don't look at it."

Songzhi remembered the Second Master's instructions that the young lady's face must never be seen outside.

However, what the master and servant did not know was that on the second floor of a restaurant not far away, when the bamboo curtain was lifted, someone caught a glimpse of Nian Shilan's face. That person's body stiffened slightly, and he kept staring at the carriage. When he noticed the family emblem on the carriage, he was slightly stunned. It was the Nian family's carriage.

When Nian Gengyao took his sweetheart into the car, the man was surprised to find that the person was actually Nian Gengyao's sister Nian Shilan.

No wonder Nian Gengyao hid his sister from everyone? It turned out that his sister was so beautiful.

The man thought of something and felt a little depressed. Nian Gengyao was a loyal minister and would never take sides with any of the princes' factions.

"What a pity!" The man took a sip of tea and turned the Buddhist beads in his hand. He knew Nian Gengyao's character well. If he forced his sister into his house, Nian Gengyao would not be loyal to him.

Nian Gengyao was only loyal to the emperor, unless he was the next emperor.

After returning home, Nian Gengyao wrote an invitation and gave it to the gatekeeper, "Go and invite Lord Yue, and tell him that I have something to discuss with him."

"Yes."

Nian Gengyao walked around in the study room, and Nalan came in with her eldest son Nian Xi, "Husband."

When Nian Gengyao saw Nalan and Nian Xi, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

He picked up Nian Xi and weighed him. "Xi'er, you have grown bigger and heavier. It won't be long before your father won't be able to hold you anymore."

When Nalan saw how happy Nian Gengyao was, she couldn't help but laugh.

"My husband, is there any good news?" Nalan had just come from her mother-in-law. Her sister-in-law Nian Shilan failed in the selection and was free to leave the palace and marry. Both her mother-in-law and father-in-law asked her to come and test Nian Gengyao's attitude.

Everyone in the Nian family knew that Yue Zhongqi and Nian Shilan were in love with each other, but Nian Shilan was a banner girl and was going to participate in a talent show, so everyone kept silent about their relationship.

Now that Shilan can marry on her own, everyone is happy. Mutual love is the most precious thing in the world, and Nalan also hopes that her sister-in-law can find a good man to accompany her for the rest of her life.

"I sent a visiting card to the Yue family..."

Before Nian Gengyao finished speaking, the servant came back with two invitations.

"Second Master, Lord Yue has sent the invitation and is outside the door now."

At the same time, he handed over the invitation written by Nian Gengyao.

Nian Gengyao raised his eyebrows slightly, took the two invitations, and joked to his wife, "Well, someone is more anxious than us."

Nalan smiled softly and said, "It would be more reassuring for both families if the marriage is settled sooner. Husband, please ask Master Yue to come in."

"Yes." Nian Gengyao thought of Yue Zhongqi at the door, "Go and invite Master Yue in."

Upon seeing this, Nalan pulled Nian Xi over and told Nian Gengyao that she would go make some snacks for the two of them, and then took Nian Xi out of the study.

Nian Gengyao and Yue Zhongqi stayed in the study for half a day, and finally Yue Zhongqi left with a smile on his face.

The Nian family members all laughed when they found out, knowing that the two families had finalized the marriage for the next year. Nian Shilan stayed in the room with a blush on her face, embroidering the wedding dress in her hands.
