Chapter 20: Worthless
Gu Chenghan looked at the end of the alley: "Your maid is here, I helped you today, when will you start detoxification?"
"Three days later, I need to prepare something." Zhen Chutian agreed casually, and his eyes were a little puzzled.
She wants to detoxify and can start at any time.
However, this kind of poison will make people hot every night, who told Gu Chenghan to say that her hands are like pig's trotters? It's hard to kill him for three days!
"I'll look for you in three days."
Gu Chenghan glanced at her deeply, and then lowered his voice: "It's not a pig's trotter, it's a beautiful jade hand." ”
“…”
Zhen Chutian's eyes widened, looking at his back for a long time and not coming back to his senses.
What's the situation, slap it and then give it to sweet dates?
But what happened when I was praised by this man, I was inexplicably a little happy.....
System: "You're being teased." ”
"I didn't! Can he tease me?" Zhen Chutian immediately retorted, his eyes a little erratic.
The system was silent for a moment: "The fate of exposing the host is very serious, so the system has decided not to speak." ”
Zhen Chutian was a little speechless, and just as he was about to threaten it for two sentences, Pei'er had already come closer.
"Miss, why are you walking so fast? The slave went down to buy a handkerchief, and there was no one in the teahouse. Pell ran over panting.
Zhen Chutian took the handkerchief and said vaguely: "If you have nothing to do, let's go home." ”
Night.
The bustling capital has not yet returned to peace, and there is one more surprising thing in the discussion of the neighbors on the street.
This matter blew through the capital like the wind, and within two hours, the news that the eldest lady of the Zhen family was led by Prince Hua to go shopping in public has spread to every corner.
Zhen Yuanshan came back from outside the mansion, and listened to Zhen Yue's oil and vinegar again, and immediately turned black with anger, and waved his hand to let Xiao Liu go to call the door of the Lotus Pavilion to be pushed open, Zhen Chutian already expected that it would not be peaceful tonight.
She changed her clothes after bathing, and then hurried to the main courtyard unhurriedly.
As soon as Zhen Yuanshan saw her come in, he reprimanded her: "Kneel, you evil girl!"
"What's going on? The daughter did not make a mistake and did not kneel. Zhen Chutian straightened his back and glanced sideways.
Zhen Yue was looked at by her like this, and she shrank back inexplicably.
"You still have the face to say yes? Today, you are pulling and pulling with Prince Hua on the street, but you are the one who is entangled?! You are obviously involved in family affairs, but you are so indecent, do you know that everyone in the capital is laughing at the Prime Minister's Mansion?!"
Zhen Yuanshan reprimanded sharply, panting with anger.
He has been the prime minister for more than 20 years, and he loves his reputation very much, and he doesn't want others to say a mistake.
Now that Zhen Chutian has done such a thing, he is about to lose the face of the Prime Minister's Mansion!
"Sister, don't pretend to be stupid, many people have seen you walking on the street holding hands, where do you put Prince An in disregard of your reputation? If you offend him, our Prime Minister's Mansion will also be in trouble. ”
Zhen Yue took two steps forward and pretended to be worried; "You should personally apologize to the prince, and then cut off contact with Prince Hua, the prince has learned about the matter, you have to make amends."
Hearing these words, Zhen Yuanshan became even more angry.
Although Prince An can't do anything in the court, he is also the most noble prince except Prince Hua, if he offends him, the Prime Minister will definitely cause a lot of trouble.
And this matter spread all over the capital, and everyone wanted to say that he had no way to teach his daughter Zhen Yuanshan.
He reprimanded more and more angrily: "You immediately go to Prince An's mansion tomorrow to make amends, come back and kneel in the ancestral hall for one month, and you are not allowed to meet Prince Hua alone again!"
Zhen Yue was relieved to hear this, and she couldn't wait to see the appearance of the cheap hoof apologizing immediately.
She knew that Gu Mo loved face the most, and now that such rumors were spread in the capital, he would never forgive Zhen Chutian easily, and he might not be disgusted.
"I don't make amends, and I don't kneel in the ancestral hall." Zhen Chutian refused without hesitation, with a little coldness on his face.
Zhen Yuanshan's face darkened: "You say it again?"
"Sister, this matter is obviously what you did wrong, not only made Prince An angry, but also implicated the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion, so you should go to apologize, how can you be so stubborn?" Zhen Yue was overjoyed in her heart, but she was anxious to persuade on her face.
Zhen Chutian finally looked at her, his gaze was colder than ever: "Isn't you the culprit of all this?" It is up to you to apologize and kneel in the ancestral hall. ”
"Unreasonable!" Zhen Yuanshan was so angry that he got up: "Your sister is kind to persuade her, what's wrong?!"
Zhen Yue's eyes were red, and she said in a trembling voice: "I don't blame my sister for saying this, it's because I didn't stay with my sister that this kind of thing happened." ”
"Stop pretending! Isn't it disgusting?"
Zhen Chutian suddenly reprimanded loudly, which frightened everyone a little stunned.
She continued: "If you hadn't deliberately hooked up with the prince in the teahouse, wouldn't Prince Hua have solved the siege when he saw that I was embarrassed?" He dragged me away, but he let go after noticing that something was wrong, but you let Prince An on his shoulders in the teahouse, and sat next to him, so that others could see it, what good reputation can you bring to the Prime Minister's Mansion?!"
After saying that, the main hall fell completely silent.
Zhen Yue's mouth was open, completely frozen in place.
Looking at her reaction, Zhen Yuanshan suddenly had a bottom in his heart: "Yue'er, what the hell is going on?" Is what your sister is telling the truth?"
Where did Zhen Yue dare to admit such a thing, she shook her head and said, "No, it's not!" I have never been so close to Prince An........
"Is there such a thing as this, just ask Prince An? The shopkeeper was guarding the door, and he must have known what the two of you had done. Zhen Chutian didn't hesitate to go back and didn't give her any chance to explain.
Zhen Yue's heart tightened.
Now Gu Mo is thinking about Zhen Chutian, in order to please this woman, he must blame her on his head, and the shopkeeper will not help her for no reason, this matter cannot be investigated!
Zhen Yuanshan noticed that something was wrong, and immediately narrowed his eyes: "Yue'er, did you really do this?"
"If my father doesn't believe it, you can ask Prince Hua, he will never disdain to tell lies." Zhen Chutian threw out a killer move, and his face was frank.
Having said that, what the truth is, Zhen Yuanshan naturally knows in his heart.
He turned around and sat back on the Taishi chair with a blank face, making it impossible to see what he was thinking at the moment.
Zhen Yue swallowed nervously, and couldn't help but take two steps forward: "Father.......
"From today onwards, you don't want to be alone with Prince An anymore, your sister's wedding is coming, I don't want anything to go wrong with this family business, understand?" Zhen Yuanshan ordered in a deep voice, and his tone could not be refused.
Zhen Yue couldn't hold back, and tears immediately fell.
No matter what she did wrong before, her father had never spoken so harshly, even if she was close to Prince An? Anyway, that's her brother-in-law too!
"It seems that my sister still thinks she has done nothing wrong." Zhen Chutian looked at her crying with a smile: "Why don't you let your father punish you for a long time?"
"I, I know that I was wrong, I will never get too close to Prince An in the future, and I ask my father not to be angry anymore." Zhen Yue hurriedly lifted her skirt and knelt down, not daring to show the slightest grievance.
Zhen Yuanshan nodded with satisfaction: "Tomorrow, you go to Prince An's Mansion to make it clear, don't deal with the prince in the future." ”
"Yes, but ....." Zhen Yue's eyes flashed slightly: "My sister and Prince Hua have such rumors, and they can't get too close in the future, otherwise the rumors won't stop." ”
She must not watch this cheap hoof come to an end, there has never been a woman in the capital who can talk to Prince Hua, and she can't let Zhen Chutian be the first person.
In the middle of the words, Zhen Chutian chuckled and said: "Okay, but you shouldn't tell me this, you should tell Prince Hua in person, after all, I don't want to associate with him, and I can't control this prince who is above 10,000 people under one person to talk to me." ”
Zhen Yue was stunned when she heard this, and she couldn't speak for a long time.
Yes, looking at the entire capital, where does anyone dare to argue with Prince Hua? Even her father would not dare to say such an order.
Zhen Yuanshan listened impatiently, waved his hand and said: "Okay, okay, Prince Hua is willing to talk to your sister, which can be regarded as her blessing, as long as you remember not to associate with Prince An, just retreat." ”
"My daughter has quit." Zhen Chutian didn't want to stay for a long time, so he hurriedly saluted and left here.
Do you still want to use this incident to fix her? Plant yourself in it, you deserve it!
"Sister stay!"
Bottle Moon trotted to catch up, looking pitiful: "Is my sister blaming me?" It wasn't that I deliberately approached Prince An, it was he who took the initiative to put his hand on my shoulder. ”
"You mean, you didn't mean to be close to Prince An at all, and he did something to you?" Zhen Chutian pretended to be angry and raised his eyebrows: "How can he be such a person!"
Seeing a little anger on her face, Zhen Yue was overjoyed, and said: "Actually, Prince An has been deliberately approaching me several times, and he doesn't only have you in his heart, such a half-hearted man, I'm really worried that my sister will suffer if she marries me." ”
"I understand, thank you for telling me the truth, I thought you deliberately approached the prince, it seems that I misunderstood."
Zhen Chutian frowned solemnly, but in fact, he was about to blossom in his heart.
This idiot thought that saying such things would provoke her and Prince An, but he didn't know that he would harm himself in a few words.
On the second day, Zhen Yue really got up early in the morning and went to Prince An's mansion to apologize in formal clothes.
Lotus Pavilion.
Zhen Chutian hummed a little song and pounded the herbs, not caring about this matter at all.
But Pei'er walked around with peace of mind: "Miss, why don't you follow?" What if the second young lady said something nonsense in front of Prince An?"
"I said it all, I don't want to marry Prince An at all, even if she devalues me to worthless, I don't care." Zhen Chutian's action of pounding herbs stopped, and then looked up at her: "But you have to go to Prince An's mansion." ”
Pei'er kicked her eyes wide in curiosity: "What does the young lady want the slave to do?"
"You tell Prince An in front of Zhen Yue, just say that from today on, he won't come to the Prime Minister's Mansion again, I don't want to talk to him, and I won't open the door of the Lotus Pavilion when I come." Zhen Chutian thoughtfully instructed two sentences.
After hearing this, Pei'er couldn't help but be a little puzzled: "Miss said this, didn't she give the second miss a chance?"
"You are wrong, what you can't get is the best, the more cold I am, the less Prince An will take Zhen Yue in his eyes, you just do it." Zhen Chutian winked at her, not at all worried that these words were too heavy.
If she was as enthusiastic and attentive as Zhen Yue, she would really be worthless in Gu Mo's eyes.
Before destroying this family affair, she had to make sure that even if she wasn't with Gu Mo, Zhen Yue wouldn't have any chance.
Pei'er didn't ask much, and hurriedly went to Prince An's mansion to pass the word.
When she arrived, Zhen Yuezheng said pitifully that she would not contact her again in the future, crying more lovable than rain hitting peach blossoms.
Gu Mo was just softened by her crying, and when he heard what Pei'er brought, he panicked.
He threw the handkerchief to Zhen Yue and ordered people to prepare horses to be close by.
Zhen Yue was stunned, and caught up with him in three steps and two steps: "Lord Wang, where are you going?!"
"Lotus Pavilion, go back in the carriage by yourself!" Gu Mo said impatiently, turned over and walked away.
Zhen Yue clenched her sleeves tightly, trembling with anger.
When she saw Pei'er passing by, she immediately stretched out her hand to search for the person: "Sister is really capable, she can coax the prince to come over to find him in just a few words." ”
