The doctor concubine who broke off the engagement was forced to rush to the wedding, but became the

Xie Zhichan frowned slightly, very unhappy that his moment of peace was disturbed. He turned around and saw a woman in yellow standing in front of him, looking down at him. The expression on her face was disdainful, but her eyes could not hide the jealousy.

Behind her were several young girls dressed elegantly, who seemed to be the family members of the officials who came today.

The girl in yellow is Huang Baoying, the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Revenue. She came to the banquet today at the request of Princess Anle, who specially came to meet the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Weiguo on her behalf.

Princess Anle originally wanted to come, but Princess Yongtai thought about what would happen in the Lu Mansion today and didn't want people to associate it with Anle in the future, so she kept her in the Princess Mansion.

Huang Baoying was very displeased when she saw that Xie Zhichan just looked at her coldly without saying anything. Relying on her status as the legitimate daughter of the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and the support of Princess Anle, no one among the noble ladies in Kyoto had dared to embarrass her like this over the years.

She sneered, "I heard that Miss Xie was sent to a farm outside Beijing when she was six years old. Did she study and learn knitting? Did she only learn how to dig the land and plant crops at the farm?"

Xie Zhichan sneered, "I wonder what the name of this girl who didn't brush her teeth is? What is her identity? How can she laugh at the girl of the Duke of Wei's mansion like this?"

Huang Baoying said angrily: "Who are you scolding for not brushing your teeth? Listen carefully, my name is Huang Baoying!"

Xie Zhichan smiled and said, "Who is Huang Baoying? Should I know her?"

Huang Baoying sneered, "You really grew up on a farm, you are ignorant. My father is Huang Qizheng, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue!"

Xie Zhichan nodded and said in a long tone: "Oh - so you are the daughter of the Minister of Revenue. Do you know the population and taxation of the Great Jin Kingdom last year?"

Huang Baoying was stunned by this nonsensical question and said with a smile, "Why would a girl like me want to know the population and tax revenue of the Great Jin Kingdom last year?"

Xie Zhichan then said with a smile: "Since Miss Huang, as the daughter of the Minister of Revenue, doesn't know the population and taxes of the Great Jin State, why should I, a woman who grew up on a farm, have to study and learn knitting?"

When everyone heard this, they found it to be somewhat reasonable. They even forgot that women were confined to the boudoir and did not understand official careers or economic matters.

Huang Baoying was suddenly speechless.

Xie Zhichan laughed again and said, "With a population of 80 million, all taxes are equivalent to about 8 million taels of silver. I happen to know something that Miss Huang doesn't know. Can I think Miss Huang is ignorant based on this? Everyone has his own shortcomings and strengths, and we should not compare others' shortcomings with their strengths. I think Miss Huang, who didn't grow up in Zhuangzi, understands these etiquette better than me, right?"

Huang Baoying was speechless and her face flushed with shame. She could not stay any longer and turned around and ran away.

The noble ladies, who were originally led by her, also followed her and left.

For a moment, Xie Zhichan was the only one left in the pavilion.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. Miss Huang's level was not even enough as an appetizer. She ran away in anger.

Fortunately, in order to understand the Jin Dynasty, she recently read all the books about the Jin Dynasty in her father's study. Her super brain with photographic memory is full of every aspect of the Jin Dynasty, but she has not yet put it to use.

It's so boring! When will the show I prepared for her today start?

Just as Xie Zhichan was looking forward to the show starting, a maid from the Lu Mansion came over with tea and said respectfully, "Miss Xie, this is the best Biluochun in our mansion, please try it."

Xie Zhichan looked at the little maid with great anticipation. Since everyone said that she was a crude person who grew up on a farm, how could she have such an elegant hobby as tea tasting?

The Lu family deliberately asked someone to bring her a pot of tea. It seemed that the show was finally about to begin!

Sure enough, after the little maid finished speaking, she poured a cup of tea and handed it to Xie Zhichan.

The moment Xie Zhichan reached out to take it, the little maid deliberately knocked over the teacup, and the tea spilled everywhere, wetting a large area of ​​her skirt.

"Oh! Thank you, Miss. It's all my fault for being clumsy. I really deserve it! It just so happens that my cousin is staying at our house these days. She has some new clothes that she hasn't worn yet. She has a similar figure to you, so why don't you come with me to change into some clean clothes?"

Xie Zhichan calmly glanced at the wet hem of her skirt, then glanced at the little maid, then smiled and said, "Okay. This is the only way."

This smile made the little maid shudder for no reason, as if Miss Xie had seen through everything. But she couldn't retreat. If she got this done, the old lady would decide to give her to the young master as his concubine.

Being able to be the bedside companion of such a noble and precious person as the young master, even if it was just a concubine, would make her wake up smiling in her dreams. As long as she could give birth to a son or daughter for the young master, she would have the position of concubine.

Xie Zhichan followed the little maid, walked through the garden corridor, and came to a guest room in the west wing.

The little maid opened the door and said to Xie Zhichan, "Young lady, please wait here for a while. I will go and get your cousin's clothes."

Xie Zhichan nodded: "You go."

The little maid closed the door the moment she left. Xie Zhichan knew she did it on purpose and did not stop her. She wanted to see how the play would be written later.

The moment she entered the house, she smelled a sweet aroma and sneered in her heart: "Sure enough, these noble families look glamorous on the surface, but they are filthy inside. In the backyard, they only know how to play tricks to humiliate people's innocence."

Fortunately, since returning to the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion, she has made some preparations and prepared many antidotes for these despicable tricks.

She took out an antidote pill from the space and put it in her mouth, then picked up the tea on the table, walked to the incense burner, and directly extinguished the incense.

Then she waited quietly for the man that the Lu family had prepared for her. She swore that she would make sure that man would never be a man again.

Since the Lu family didn't want to hold a proper celebration banquet, she wasn't afraid of making a big fuss, as it would be a good opportunity to cancel this crappy engagement!

She sat on the small couch in the room for a long time, but no one came. After waiting for a long time, she heard the sound of wooden wheels rolling.

Finally someone came. Xie Zhichan hid behind the door and took a tube of anesthetic from the space.

Then the door was pushed open and a man in a wheelchair pushed it in.

Xie Zhichan didn't think much about it. She just thought that the Lu family wanted to humiliate her on purpose, so they found a disabled person for her.

Without saying anything, he injected the anesthetic in his hand into the neck of the person who came over.

Unexpectedly, the person reacted very quickly and raised his hand to grab the wrist where she was holding the anesthetic.

"It's me, Pei Yi!"

Pei Yi? Why does this name sound familiar?

Xie Zhichan looked down and saw the person sitting in the wheelchair also looking up at her.

Pei Yi! Why is he here?

Could it be that Pei Yi was the man that Lu Fu had chosen for her? But Little Pei was temporarily out of action? This was too absurd!

She couldn't help but stare at Pei Yi for a long time, and asked her doubts, "Why is Prince Pei here?"
