Chapter 57 A glimpse of the secret

Being frightened by someone's look, Sheng Gu felt a little embarrassed, so he wanted to stare back without being outdone.

But as soon as he came into contact with Xue Chen's eyes that seemed to be filled with ice, he almost subconsciously averted his eyes.

How could a scholar have such scary eyes...

In the end, Sheng Gu turned his fear into anger and stood up as soon as he slapped the table. He said with a sad and angry expression: "Did I say something wrong?! Could it be that Miss Xue wanted to marry into my family, but after my family broke off the engagement, she became so angry that she came to Your Majesty's house?

She came forward to complain and threatened me with my position as Marquis, do you want to force me to marry her?

Isn’t it that Miss Xue is putting so much effort into marrying into my Changshenghou Mansion and becoming the Crown Princess of my Changshenghou Mansion?!"

Xue Chen closed his eyes and tried to suppress the anger that was rising in his heart.

When he thought about how this idiot almost became his brother-in-law, he felt sick.

His reaction fell in Sheng Gu's eyes, indicating that he had a guilty conscience.

Otherwise, why would you close your eyes and not dare to look directly at him?

So Sheng Gu felt more confident, and he persuaded in an almost sincere tone: "Mr. Xue, now that I'm here, Miss Xue wants me to marry her, so I will. I hope Mr. Xue will marry Miss Xue."

Call it out, don't be willful anymore.

As long as she wants, we can exchange wedding invitations again right away, and the wedding date... we can choose a date as close as possible, how about it?"

"Not at all." Xue Chen had always been indifferent, even a little indifferent to emotions and anger. Now he was obviously forced to panic, and he almost squeezed out these few words through his teeth, "Sir Sheng, don't be wishful thinking.

You don’t even know what you are like, how can you be worth my sister’s troubles?”

"What?" Sheng Gu's eyes suddenly widened, and his voice suddenly became shrill and thin, "Wishful thinking? Are you saying that I am wishful thinking?! How can I not be worthy of your sister!"

Xue Chen sneered and said: "You are incompetent in literature and martial arts, have no talent and appearance, and are so stupid that it gives people a headache. How can you be worthy of my sister?

Prince Sheng should know that a few years ago, if Marquis Changsheng had not been clever enough to send your sister to the palace, your position as marquis would have been lost long ago.

This is an opportunity. I don’t expect your family to make a difference, but you should at least know what to do. You should keep your tail between your legs and not be tyrannical in the capital. But how did your family do it?

Today you allow your subordinates to beat people, and tomorrow you smash up shops on the streets. It is not easy for Your Majesty to tolerate you until now.

If Prince Sheng has the spare time to be sentimental, you might as well use your pig brain and think about how your family will live after they move out of the Marquis Mansion."

Everyone in the capital knew how arrogant and domineering the Changsheng Hou family was, and the emperor naturally knew it too. However, the emperor endured it for so many years.

It must be said that the emperor really cared for Concubine Sheng sincerely.

After saying that, Xue Chen didn't want to stay in the front hall any longer and left directly.

They say stupidity is contagious. He will have to take the Chunwei exam next year. If he becomes stupid, he will be finished.

Moreover, he was afraid that if he said one more word about this great story, he would be angry to death.

After Xue Chen threw up his sleeves and left, Sheng Gu was still sitting in the front hall, his face flushed with anger.

He was not thinking about what he had done wrong over the years, nor was he thinking about what life would be like for them after the title of Marquis was taken back.

All he could think about was that Xue Shu didn't even like him?!

Xue Chen also said that he is sentimental?!

How is that possible!

He is the eldest son of the Hou family, and his sister is a concubine in the palace!

He has all the girls in the capital at his disposal. How could a mere Zuo Xiangfu have the confidence to treat him like this?

——

When Sheng Gu suffered a huge blow in the Xue Mansion, Chu Chu, who had an appointment with him, was already waiting impatiently at the teahouse.

Chu Chu irritably swept the tea cup aside on the table, frowned and looked outside.

The weather today was not very good and it was gray. Chu Chu only looked at it for a while, then withdrew her gaze and fell on the tea cup in front of her.

A few days ago, when she was being pushed out of Xue's house, strange yet realistic scenes suddenly flashed across her eyes.

There are not many pictures, but the amount of information is huge.

After she returned to Prince Heng's Mansion, she connected these pictures together while taking a bath, and then she became extremely excited.

That condescending daughter of the Xue family was originally born to be her stepping stone.

Now it seems that the legitimate daughter of the Xue family is unparalleled in beauty and loved by thousands of people. However, everything that the legitimate daughter of the Xue family has will eventually be transferred to her hands step by step!

If you really don't want to stand by her side, you will be destroyed.

Those who follow her will prosper, and those who go against her will perish.

She is the destined heroine!

This is destiny!

She also saw that Prince Xiaoyao, Shenggu, and many other handsome men whom she did not know, always looked at her with tender eyes, as if they were looking at their most cherished treasures.

In the last picture, she is wearing colorful clothes and a phoenix crown, sitting high on the phoenix throne, looking down at the people below her, how majestic she is!

And the legitimate daughter of the Xue family...

Oh, he only deserves to be kicked out of the capital by her, wearing coarse linen clothes, huddled in a shabby Taoist temple and spending his days scribbling!

She knew that since she was allowed to come here, why would she be allowed to be overpowered?

She knew! She was the one blessed by fate!

So, she was excited for half a month, and she finally calmed down today. The first thing she did was to make an appointment with Sheng Gu to have a chat, hoping to test his loyalty.

But she didn't expect that she had been sitting here for almost an hour, and she still hadn't come.

The female servant who was guarding outside the house heard the noise inside, opened the door and walked in. She knelt down at the side without daring to raise her head: "Girl, Prince Sheng hasn't come yet. I have sent someone to inquire about it. I think he will be here soon."

There will be news."

Chu Chu said "hmm" and waved her hand impatiently, telling her to leave quickly.

Not long after, the person who inquired about the information came back.

"Reporting to my lady, something unexpected happened in the Changshenghou Mansion. Prince Sheng is now in the Xue Mansion." The man knelt on the ground and spoke respectfully.

"What happened?" Chu Chu frowned, her heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly had an ominous premonition, "Xue Mansion? Why did he suddenly go to Xue Mansion?"

The man paused and said, "I don't know..."

He is just an inquirer, and he has no ability to get into other people's stomachs.

The uneasiness in Chu Chu's heart became more and more intense. She stood up in a panic and said: "Let's go to Xue Mansion to have a look."

She was kicked out not long ago. It stands to reason that most people would never visit her again for the rest of their lives.

But for Chu Chu, who has had a glimpse of the secret, Xue Mansion is destined to be her stepping stone, so what is there to be afraid of?

If they dare to bully her again, they won't be able to reap any good fruits when she gains power in the future!

Chu Chu was thinking in her mind and couldn't suppress the smile on her lips.

If she hadn't put on the curtain hat as soon as she went out, she would have been arrested as a madman.
