At first, Cheng Songan didn't care, but the more he listened, the more familiar the voice seemed to him. It was like a barrage of sounds, and could be heard even across the floors.
Cheng Songan was shocked, not knowing what had happened to her downstairs, and hurriedly pulled Mudan down to the second floor. The voice came from a private room on the second floor. He heard a group of people persuading her and Duan Zhuyu cursing, but it was not that she was bullied.
Cheng Songan breathed a sigh of relief and quickly walked through the room. Standing by the door, he saw Duan Zhuyu with his eyes wide open. He found a long sword from somewhere in his hand and pointed at a person, saying, "If I don't pierce a transparent hole in your body today, I'm not named Duan!"
Cheng Songan didn't know the man, but anyone who could come to such a place was definitely not an ordinary person. She quickly went over and snatched Duan Zhuyu's sword, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
Duan Zhuyu continued to speak to him viciously: "Zhao Lin, do you dare to swear that you have never said that?"
The man named Zhao Lin was so scared by her aura that he dared not look her in the eye. He said stubbornly, "Who do you think you are? Do you think I will listen to you if you ask me to swear an oath? Duan Zhuyu, you are relying on your relationship with King Xiang to act lawless. I will ask my father to report you."
Upon hearing this, Duan Zhuyu pinched his waist and yelled at him, "If you have the guts, come with me and go directly to the emperor!"
Cheng Songan was immediately overwhelmed with worries. How did this girl get involved with the son of the Prime Minister Zhao Huaisong? Zhao Huaisong was ruthless, and it only took him five years to rise from the position of Vice Minister of the Ministry of War to the Prime Minister. He was as ruthless as Cui Yuanqing, but he was later infected by power and lost his original intention to govern the country and the people. He allowed his family and cronies to control the government, lost the support of the people, and was overthrown by Cui Yuanqing, ending up miserably.
But these are all later stories. Now Zhao Huaisong is still a popular figure in the imperial court. Duan Zhuyu has offended Zhao Lin, which is still a troublesome matter.
Cheng Songan pulled Duan Zhuyu behind him, without even looking at the people at the table, and just nodded slightly in that direction and said, "Miss Duan is not a domineering person. There must be some misunderstanding. It's better to let it go. If you bring a fuss to the Saint over such a trivial matter, it will not look good on your fathers."
The three rich young men accompanying Zhao Lin were not as noble as the two. They tried to persuade him for half a day but failed. After hearing what Cheng Songan said, they all agreed.
Zhao Lin took the opportunity to step down and said, "A good man doesn't fight with a woman. I won't bother with you!"
It would have been better if he hadn't said this. Once he said it, Duan Zhuyu grabbed the sword and insisted on stabbing him.
Cheng Songan refused to give it to her and stood in front of her. Duan Zhuyu said angrily, "Sister, this guy is insulting your reputation!"
When these words were spoken, Zhao Lin and the other three were also shocked. After taking a closer look at Cheng Songan's face, they were stunned as if petrified.
Cheng Songan's face darkened as she glanced coldly at the four people. Her gaze was sharper than the sword in her hand, and Zhao Lin was so frightened that he didn't dare to look her in the eye.
She said coldly, "No words have been spoken by the four of you. Nothing happened today. Do you understand?"
She didn't ask what he said. Since Duan Zhuyu had said something insulting, it was not a good thing. If she said it again, it would be meaningless and would only offend the ears.
Zhao Lin stared at her in a daze and forgot to speak.
Cheng Songan just felt sick, and the sword in his hand swung a sword flower and lightly chopped the teapot on the table. The teapot immediately broke into two pieces, and the tea leaves and tea spilled all over the floor.
Zhao Lin was so frightened that he cried out, and together with the other three people, they kept saying, "I understand, I understand."
Duan Zhuyu clapped her hands in delight and praised: "Sister Cheng, your swordsmanship is so beautiful!"
"Humph, Cui Yuanqing, he is not worthy!"
Cheng Songan threw the sword on the ground, without even looking at those people, he pulled Duan Zhuyu and walked out.
He ran into a graceful and elegant man who chuckled and said, "Xuanzhen, when did you offend this little ancestor?"
Xuanzhen is Cui Yuanqing's pen name.
Cheng Songan's scalp tingled. Why did he come here? He was afraid that he had seen the commotion just now, so he had no choice but to look at him.
Cui Yuanqing looked at her indifferently, his eyes were cold and devoid of all the concern that a husband should have for his newlywed wife. It was no wonder, after all, he had just spoken harshly to her and walked away because he had chosen a marriage for her lover.
At this moment, he was standing beside two noble gentlemen of noble bearing, but his outstanding temperament and appearance could not be concealed.
Cheng Songan forced himself to remain calm. Anyway, nothing happened, so it didn't matter if he saw it. The most important thing now was to get Duan Zhuyu to stick to him.
Just as he was about to speak, Zhao Lin and three other people suddenly rushed out and kowtowed, saying, "Greetings to His Royal Highness Prince Fu, Greetings to His Royal Highness Prince Jin."
Cheng Songan was startled. It turned out that it was Prince Jin and Prince Fu who came. Although they were both on the same side of the Queen, they were not on good terms with each other and were fighting fiercely at the moment. It was rare for them to pretend to be in love and come out together. And Cui Yuanqing was so good at dancing that he clearly supported Prince Xiang, but still made Prince Fu and Prince Jin fight for him.
Duan Zhuyu bowed perfunctorily and said, "Meet Uncle Prince Jin and Uncle Prince Fu."
Cheng Songan immediately followed suit and bowed deeply.
Cui Yuanqing said calmly: "Your Highness, this is my wife."
Prince Jin was only a few years older than Cui Yuanqing. He smiled and said, "So it's my brother's sister-in-law. She's really pretty. No wonder Yuanqing can't call her that anymore!"
Prince Fu smiled with a fake smile, and then said to the kneeling people: "Go away, remember, nothing happened today, and you didn't say anything!"
Zhao Lin and his companions were sweating profusely and immediately retreated.
Cui Yuanqing half-closed his eyes and stared at Zhao Lin for a long time before turning his gaze away and looking at Cheng Songan.
Cheng Songan gritted his teeth and said to Cui Yuanqing, "Sir, this is the Duan family's sister. She just helped me out of trouble. She is very kind."
As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for Cui Yuanqing to answer, he put his arm around Duan Zhuyu's shoulders and introduced her: "Sister, this is my husband."
Cheng Songan stared at Duan Zhuyu nervously, not missing any of her expressions, but saw her casually glance at Cui Yuanqing and snorted coldly: "She is good-looking, but I'm afraid she is too thin..."
Whether it was his expression or his words, there was no sign of love at first sight, and he even looked down on her. This was even stranger than the indifferent look on Lu Qingshan's face when he saw Cheng Wanxin.
Cheng Songana was puzzled. Could it be that if a little time was changed, the feelings would change so much? However, Cui Yuanqing's feelings for Cheng Wanxin remained unchanged.
Prince Jin laughed and said, "Zhu'er, when did Xuanzhen offend you?"
Cui Yuanqing didn't care, and said calmly: "Miss Duan helped me out, Cui is very grateful, thank you."
Duan Zhuyu wrinkled her nose and said, "That sounds like human language. Well, well, well, in the future, be nicer to my sister and don't let her get bullied. That will be your way of thanking me."
Then, he turned back to Cheng Songan and said, "Sister, I will go back today and play with you another day."
She was very young, but she spoke so seriously, as if she was pretending to be mature. Prince Fu and Prince Jin couldn't help but smile at each other after hearing it.
Cheng Songan was quite at a loss when he saw Duan Zhuyu leave like that. In his previous life, Duan Zhuyu caused such a big fuss over marrying Cui Yuanqing, so they must have loved each other deeply. Even though the way they met in this life was different, they should have been touched when they met. How could this happen?
Is it because she is too proud to be embarrassed in front of Prince Jin and Prince Fu? But this is not in line with her personality.
While he was deep in thought, Cui Yuanqing suddenly put his slender hand on his shoulder. With a smile between his eyebrows, he said to the two princes: "My lords, I'm sorry, my wife was frightened today. I will take her back."
Cheng Songan began to doubt his ears.
