The wronged female supporting role made a comeback with a divine reply

Chapter 142 Sun Banquet

Bai Zhaozhao rebelled: "No, I did drink tea with Lord Wang, what's the big deal?"

Li Rongyue had no choice but to say something soft: "Miss Bai, don't be angry. I'm just jealous of Wang Jinnian."

Bai Zhaozhao: Ah, this...

Brother, please don't tell me you like me! There is no destiny between us!

While Bai Zhaozhao was daydreaming, Li Rongyue had already pulled him to his seat.

"Miss Bai, please sit down." He raised his hand and poured a cup of tea for Bai Zhaozhao. He looked at Bai Zhaozhao intently. His beautiful face actually revealed a hint of drunkenness at this moment.

Can you get drunk by drinking tea?

Bai Zhaozhao got straight to the point: "Mr. Li, do you want to see me for something?"

Li Rongyue raised a smile: "Miss Bai, do you believe in love at first sight?"

Bai Zhaozhao raised his eyebrows and said, "I don't believe it!"

Li Rongyue froze: "Why?"

Bai Zhaozhao said seriously: "Because it's no different from being attracted by beauty. Mr. Li, please don't tell me that you fell in love with me at first sight."

Li Rongyue: "...Miss Bai's words really make me sad."

Bai Zhaozhao stared calmly into Li Rongyue's eyes and said, "Mr. Li, if everything is fine, I'll leave first."

Li Rongyue chuckled: "Okay, I have two questions for Miss Bai."

"please say."

"How did Miss Bai find the account book when she was in Yuzhou?"

"…You're following me?"

"No, it was the emperor who ordered me to send secret guards to protect Bai Zhuangyuan. When you were not with Bai Zhuangyuan, my people knew nothing."

"...My brother has encountered a bear, did your people protect a lonely person?"

"Heh, he's surrounded by guards, do you still need my people to take action? Besides, do you think Bai Lin doesn't know?"

Bai Zhaozhao was stunned. That's right, Bai Lin should know, so before going to Lu County, he said with certainty that he would be fine.

Li Rongyue continued, "I'm just curious. Miss Bai seems to be very good at finding things."

Bai Zhaozhao rolled his eyes: "It has nothing to do with you."

Li Rongyue was very puzzled: "I really don't understand why Miss Bai seems to be hostile to me? It was the same last time I treated her, and it's still the same now. Did I offend you in some way?"

Bai Zhaozhao lowered his eyes. To be honest, he hadn't offended anyone.

But... in her heart, she still cares about the things in the original work!

In the original novel, Cheng Jiayu said that Li Rongyue was just using her, which was not necessarily true, but it was true that Li Rongyue faked his death to escape, and it was also true that he did not save her. It was also difficult to tell whether he was insincere towards her during their marriage.

Bai Zhaozhao sighed silently in his heart: "Mr. Li did not offend me, I just don't like people who are too powerful."

After saying that, Bai Zhaozhao left, leaving Li Rongyue alone in deep thought.

Is he too powerful?

That’s right, he was a major general of the Northwest Army before, and now he is the commander of the Imperial Guards. When he is serious, he is indeed very powerful. However, in front of Bai Zhaozhao, he restrained his aura!

The tenth day of the twelfth lunar month.

The Prince An's mansion was decorated with lights and was packed with people; it was the hundred-day banquet for Prince An's youngest son.

Prince An was entertaining guests in the front yard, and Bai Lin was helping out.

The female guests were received by Bai Zhaozhao and Tang Yanyan. The banquet went very smoothly and both the hosts and guests enjoyed themselves. At the end, everyone was allowed to stroll around the garden at will.

The plum blossoms bloom proudly in the snow, the shadows of the trees dance gracefully, and the noble ladies gather in groups of three or four to chat and laugh.

Bai Zhaozhao always felt that a pair of eyes would fall on her from time to time. Suddenly, she turned around and saw Su Ling's back as she turned around hurriedly.

There were two young ladies beside her. Bai Zhaozhao called Chunlan over and said, "Go and see what County Lady Su is talking about with those two young ladies."

Chunlan understood: "Yes, Miss."

After a while, Chunlan came back and said, "Miss, they are talking about you! County Lady Su said that you are just a peasant girl who won the favor of the princess with a little medical skills and actually acted as the host in this mansion. It's really funny. Miss Xu and Miss Zhao agreed with her. But later, Miss Lin rebuked her. Miss Lin said that they are all adopted daughters, so who is more noble than who?"

Bai Zhaozhao became interested: "Miss Lin? From the Guangping Marquis family?"

Chunlan said, “Yes, Miss, after Miss Lin finished speaking, Miss Xu immediately exploded, saying that County Master Su is a person with a title, and she is not comparable to any random adopted daughter.

Miss Lin did not answer, but instead talked about the confinement of the Rui Wangzi, and said that the Rui Wangfei was sad and anxious, so why did the Su County Lady still have the mood to attend the banquet? Since you look down on the host family, why don't you leave quickly? "

Bai Zhaozhao grabbed a handful of melon seeds: "And then?"

"Then Princess Su seemed angry, but she didn't dare to speak loudly. She just said that it was because Princess Rui couldn't come to congratulate that she sent her here. Otherwise, it would be impolite. But Miss Lin just snorted and left."

At this time, Tang Yanyan also came over: "Zhao Zhao, why are you so happy? Hey, Su Ling? Are you looking at her? Let me tell you, when she first came, she wanted to ask my brother to talk alone! But my brother refused! Haha, just thinking about it makes me happy."

Bai Zhaozhao was slightly surprised: "It seems that she has encountered some difficulties."

Tang Yanyan asked curiously, "Why don't you say that she can't forget her old love?"

Bai Zhaozhao shook his head: "She is a very realistic and rational person. She can clearly distinguish between interests and feelings. If she hadn't encountered difficulties, she wouldn't look for her sworn brother."

Tang Yanyan understood: "Forget it, forget about her, Zhao Zhao, mother will bring Xiao Ping'er out for everyone to see later, let's go get ready."

"it is good."

After Bai Zhaozhao walked away, Su Ling looked at her back with complicated feelings. After not seeing her for many days, Bai Zhaozhao seemed to have become even more beautiful.

Her brother is highly valued by the Emperor, and she herself is loved by the entire Prince An's Mansion. On the other hand, she is not liked by Princess Rui due to her illegitimate daughter, and her nominal brother is under house arrest. When she encounters difficulties and wants to ask for help from Prince An, she cannot even say a word.

At this moment, Su Ling didn't even know why she had to compete with Bai Zhaozhao.

A few days ago, Princess Rui told Su Ling that she had chosen two families for her and asked her to compare them herself. One was to marry into the Queen's family, the Cheng'en Marquis Mansion, and the other was to marry Xiao Ce, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, as his second wife.

She didn't want either of these.

Although the Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion is the Empress's maiden home, it is well known that none of the three families therein have any real talent or knowledge. They are neither good at martial arts nor literature, and they are all idle people who live off their savings.

If it weren't for the support of the Queen, the Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion would have fallen apart long ago.

As for the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Xiao Ce, he is almost forty years old and his daughter is almost the same age as her. What should she consider?

However, she knew that Xiao Ce belonged to the Emperor, and Rui Wangfu belonged to the Prince. If the Emperor did not object to the marriage, it would mean that in the Emperor's heart, the Prince's position was stable. If he objected, he would have to make preparations early. So although Princess Rui seemed to be giving her a choice, she was actually testing the waters for the Prince.

But even if it was just a test, she didn't want to take the risk. If the test was successful, she would really have to marry Xiao Ce!
