Green tea was read, the villain's family begged me to be happy

That day, the system vowed that the little fat man would break the Sixth Prince's legs, and Xu Wanying had been waiting.

If such a big thing really happened, the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty would have been in turmoil long ago, but it has been calm these past few days.

He even had the leisure to ask her to serve tea today, so something must have happened.

As expected, the system froze instantly, and he stammered for a long time without being able to speak.

[System, are you mute? ] She pressed.

[Host, please rest assured. Given the character of the little fat man, it is inevitable that he will cause great trouble. He will not be able to escape the fate of becoming a eunuch in this life.]

[Really? Then tell me, did he break the Sixth Prince's leg? ]

The system fell into silence.

Xu Wanying sneered: [Haha, you took my energy, but told me a lie, you must compensate me with a big one! ]

[Host, this is not my fault. Young Master Pan and the Sixth Prince had already had a conflict and were about to fight, but you, the mother-in-law, sent the chief guard over to directly take the little fat boy away, and even had someone report to the authorities to quell the riot. But the Sixth Prince already has a grudge against the little fat boy, so they will fight sooner or later!] The system also felt aggrieved.

After hearing what the system said, Marquis Zhongyi and Cen looked at each other, and saw a solemn look on each other's faces.

This system is probably really a magical tool, as if it has opened a third eye. Even if they change the course of things, it can still detect it.

The system said unwillingly: [Since she ruined the good thing, let’s eat her melon first. ]

[When Madam Hou was a young lady, she had a lover. They met by chance under a peach tree in a temple and fell in love at first sight. Later, they met again in the rain. The scholar did not bring an umbrella, so Cen had someone send him an oil-paper umbrella. They also exchanged poems, and the scholar promised her that he would marry her. However, due to a series of mistakes, they were not able to become a happy couple.]

When Cen heard that she was going to be talked about, her hair stood on end.

Everyone has secrets, including her. Moreover, she is in the backyard and is the mistress of the mansion, so she has many secrets.

But she never expected that what the system revealed was not her cruelty, but the girl's inner thoughts.

Cen's heart was in suspense, this was much more serious than any other private matter.

The loyal and righteous Marquis standing aside stared at Cen with his tiger eyes wide open and an expression of disbelief.

When the system said that Cen had a lover, he was not panicked at all. Who else could this lover be other than him? But when the second sentence came out and pointed out that it was a scholar, he instantly tensed up and was on the verge of exploding.

Cen naturally noticed the fiery gazes around her, but she didn't even dare to look them in the eye, obviously feeling guilty.

She immediately spoke up, obviously wanting to interrupt: "Wanying, are you satisfied with these wedding gifts? There are still many in the storeroom, and mother has prepared them for you!"

When Xu Wanying heard this, she became even more delighted and full of energy.

She said politely, "As a daughter-in-law who married into the Marquis's mansion, I should be filial to my parents-in-law and respect my brothers and sisters-in-law. The things in the storehouse should not be enjoyed by a junior like me. Please don't worry so much, mother. I am so scared!"

Cen heard her speak so nicely, and she felt comforted in her heart: "The elders' gift cannot be refused. I am also distressed that you broke your head as soon as you entered the house."

As long as she stopped letting the system dig out her secrets, she could guarantee to send treasures to Qingxi Pavilion every now and then.

Of course, it’s hard to say this out loud, so Xu Wanying can only figure it out on her own.

Unfortunately, Xu Wanying was not what she wanted at all. She even shouted excitedly in her heart: [System, system, I am so excited right now. When I think of the gold, silver and jewelry that will fill the house, I can't control myself! Quick, continue to expose the secrets of the Marquis' wife. Who does my mother-in-law, who is so steady and scheming, like? ]

[Coincidentally, the person Cen likes is none other than the mortal enemy of the Loyal Marquis, the Minister of Rites Yu Jingxuan.]

The system said excitedly, but as soon as it said the three words "Yu Jingxuan", Marquis Zhongyi could no longer sit still. He slapped the table, and with a "pop" sound, one of the legs of the table shattered on the spot.

Then there was a crackling sound, and the tea cups and fruit plates on the table all fell to the ground, with fragments everywhere.

The servants around knelt on the ground, and no one dared to say a word.

Xu Wanying also looked over in shock: [What's going on! Why did the Loyalty Marquis suddenly go crazy? Is he going to have epilepsy? Or rabies? This is the late stage of the symptoms! ]

"Just now a bug flew by and I lost control of my strength." Marquis Zhongyi tried to save his own face.

Cen said nothing, and the servants quickly came forward and cleaned up the matter.

[Wow, I never thought that such a tough guy would be afraid of bugs. How much strength did he have to use to control himself and not scream. Tsk tsk]

[The system did not detect that the Loyal Marquis was afraid of insects. Where did the host come to this conclusion? ]

[You can tell with your own eyes that the fear of insects by the Marquis of Loyalty must be deep-rooted, otherwise he would have died with just a flick of the wrist. Why would he have used so much strength? It is clear that he has turned his fear into strength.]

[Normal people would scream when seeing something they fear, but a man like him who considers himself a tough guy must not scream, lest he lose his dignity.] Xu Wanying analyzed seriously.

Marquis Zhongyi's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. What a mess.

"Why are you all looking at me like that? I have been learning martial arts since I was young, and I went to the battlefield when I was ten years old. I have to give my all in everything I do. Even when facing a weak enemy, I have to exert my utmost strength. Only in this way can I be invincible." He spoke in a high-sounding manner, but in fact he was speaking to Xu Wanying, so that she would not throw dirty water on him.

[System, I guessed it right. This is a typical case of trying to cover up something but only making it more obvious.]

[The host is right! ]

[Hurry up and continue my mother-in-law's girlish feelings! Since she and Yu Jingxuan loved each other, why didn't they end up together? 】

Just as a smile appeared on Cen's face, she almost opened her mouth to stop him when she heard this.

No, does this third daughter-in-law really want to kill everyone? She was staring at the master just now, why is it her turn now? Is it never over?

【Yu Jingxuan was born in poverty, without any family support, and could only rely on his own hard work. He originally planned to pass the imperial examination and propose marriage to the Cen family. However, when he took the imperial examination, the chief examiner was the then Minister of Rites Cao Defan. This Lord Cao and Cen's father Cen Ruhai had different political views and happened to be in opposing political parties. Not only did they never interact with each other, but they were also mortal enemies who attacked each other.】

[The unspoken rule of the imperial examination is that the chief examiner of this session is the teacher of all candidates. In the future, candidates will be close to their teachers when they become officials and handle affairs, and naturally form the same faction. Yu Jingxuan wanted to distance himself from Cao Defan and join Cen Ruhai, but Cao Defan appreciated him and selected him as the first place in the joint examination. When it came to the palace examination, Cao Defan also tried his best to protect Yu Jingxuan in front of the emperor, so that he was selected as the top scholar.]

【At this time, Cao Defan had been so grateful to Jingxuan that he could not betray him. Cao Defan then betrothed his legitimate daughter to him and supported him all the way to success. Under the temptation of huge benefits, Yu Jingxuan gladly accepted Cao Defan's arrangement. The father-in-law and son-in-law helped each other in the court and became a good story.】

The system explained the tortuous past in one breath, and Xu Wanying listened with great interest.

[Heh, isn't this just the ancient version? The first thing you do when you get ashore is to kill the person you love. What's the point of saying they love each other? Ugh, hypocrisy!]
