A time-travel story where I forcefully marry the leading lady in a film/TV series!

Thinking of this, Wei Tingyu clinked glasses with Li Youzhen again, then got up and left.

After watching Wei Tingyu's figure disappear, Li Youzhen withdrew her gaze and then saw He Weifang, who was sitting not far away, staring at her curiously.

Good heavens! The two of them have finally crossed paths because of a man... but this man isn't Liu Chang, it's Wei Tingyu!

It can only be said that the circumstances of this world are truly interesting! If someone had told her about this situation three days ago, Li Youzhen would have definitely thought that person was talking nonsense and slapped them a hundred times!

But it has actually happened!

Thinking of this, Li Youzhen nodded slightly to He Weifang, then gestured with her eyes to the screen behind her.

Without waiting for He Weifang's response, she was helped up by a maid, pretended to be quite drunk, and went behind the screen before leaving the table.

He Weifang was initially a little confused after meeting Li Youzhen's gaze, but seeing that the other party seemed to have something to say to her, she immediately took a deep breath, stood up, and left the banquet.

……

"Come in!" Outside the main house of the Ji'an County Princess's courtyard, a maid nodded gently to He Weifang, who was waiting there.

He Weifang suppressed her doubts and stepped into the room, only to find that Li Youzhen had dismissed all the maids around her and was now sitting alone behind the jade curtain.

"May Your Highness be well!" Seeing that all the servants had left and the door to the small house was closed, leaving only herself and Li Youzhen inside, He Weifang felt much more relaxed.

That makes sense. Even if the Princess of Ji'an is arrogant, she wouldn't attack me without a reason in Liu's mansion.

Besides, with Marquis Wei Tingyu of Jining backing him up, the Princess of Ji'an couldn't possibly be unaware of this, and should at least consider his feelings.

Having figured all this out, He Weifang mentally scolded herself a couple of times. She had indeed scared herself a bit before, but now that she understood, she wasn't nervous at all!

"He's got some tricks up her sleeve!" Li Youzhen naturally heard He Weifang's greeting, but instead of answering directly, she didn't even lift her eyelids and said, "You tricked the Marquis into not going boating on the lake with me! Are you here to show off now?"

He Weifang was taken aback when she heard Li Youzhen's words, and then she started to complain in her heart.

What do you mean I came to find you? You clearly came to find me first!

However, considering that the person in front of him was the noble county princess, and that he couldn't reason with her, he could only helplessly explain, "Peony is unaware that the county princess invited the marquis to go boating on the lake!"

"What?" Li Youzhen, of course, did not believe the other party's explanation. She slowly raised her head and looked at He Weifang, asking word by word, "Does the Marquis's refusal of me mean that you have another agreement with him?"

"I never made an appointment with the Marquis! Nor did I ever dream of traveling with the Marquis!" He Weifang was speechless again, but she also knew that Li Youzhen only dared to ask her this question.

She couldn't afford to be jealous when it came to Wei Tingyu!

"You've been staying in the Marquis's courtyard for the past two nights. Do you really think no one knows what you're thinking?" County Princess Li Youzhen was furious when she heard that He Weifang was so unresponsive and unwilling to listen to reason. She lightly slapped the table with her hand and then adopted a lecturing posture, saying, "Don't forget you're a married woman! You've committed such lewd acts and still don't know how to repent and refuse to admit your mistakes!"

He Weifang was taken aback, thinking to herself, "Just as I thought!"

But even Wei Tingyu's legitimate wives and concubines haven't objected to my relationship with him, so why are you, an outsider, lecturing me like this? To put it bluntly, who do you think you are?

"Princess, you mustn't speak carelessly!" Of course, she couldn't directly confront Li Youzhen like that, so she quickly said, "It was because the Marquis's wife and I had a very pleasant conversation that she kept me here! I stayed with her for those two nights and chatted with her. If you don't believe me, you can ask the Marquis's wife to come and ask her!"

This time, Li Youzhen was completely dumbfounded!

Yeah! Wei Tingyu's wives and concubines didn't say anything, and he's acting all high and mighty here. Isn't that a bit too funny?

However, Li Youzhen couldn't hit He Weifang in front of her, since she wasn't sure how much Wei Tingyu liked her.

If I really make He Weifang cry, and it causes Wei Tingyu to dislike me, that would be terrible!

However, if we were to be reasonable, it would be disregarding her status as a noblewoman from the county! Li Youzhen's eyes darted around, and she decided not to bring up the previous incident again. Instead, she directly threatened He Weifang, saying, "Your silver tongue is indeed eloquent! But you actually dared to come here alone. Aren't you afraid that I won't tolerate any dissent and will punish you?"

"The Marquis mentioned the County Princess to me the other day, only saying that you are innocent, carefree, and otherworldly!" He Weifang was not afraid at all and said directly, "If the County Princess were to kill me without cause, it would only make the Marquis think that you have become ruthless and domineering!"

"With the county princess's wisdom, she would certainly not want to push the marquis further away!"

"You don't need to be wary of me at all. My thoughts are just the same as the county princess's!"

After He Weifang finished speaking, Li Youzhen indeed showed a thoughtful expression.

She had actually thought of this before, but hearing it from the other person now seemed more convincing.

However, when He Weifang said that her thoughts were the same as hers, the county princess raised her head and gave her a deep look, as if she understood what He Weifang meant.

The two can now be considered rivals in love, but they can also turn hostility into friendship and become excellent partners!

After all, neither of them are women who can marry into the Marquis's mansion so easily! Achieving this goal will always require some twists and turns!

Even if Wei Tingyu's wives and concubines do not object, they still face considerable worldly obstacles, and they should help each other even more at this time!

"What about your husband's son?" The county princess thought of this and her tone became much gentler as she looked at He Weifang and asked.

In this respect, Li Youzhen was much more relaxed, since she was currently a widow and had no husband's family to bind her.

"My heart has never been with Liu Chang!" He Weifang no longer needed to hide anything and stated her purpose frankly: "I have decided to divorce him!"

Upon hearing this, Li Youzhen's eyes widened in surprise. She never expected that He Weifang, the daughter of a merchant, would be so brave in pursuing her love and happiness!

As a county princess, I was actually hesitant and indecisive before, fearing both the wolf and the tiger. I am truly ashamed!

Thinking of this, Li Youzhen gently beckoned to He Weifang, who immediately understood and sat down next to her.

"You just said you wanted to divorce him, you should talk to Zishu, what's the use of telling me all this?" The county princess asked He Weifang, who was sitting next to her.

“Liu Jia has never been Liu Chang’s decision-maker! If it’s to be reasonable, the head of the household has to agree!” He Weifang answered directly.

"You must have a plan, since you're telling me all this?" Princess Li Youzhen of Ji'an County was taken aback. At this moment, she felt that He Weifang in front of her was indeed not simple.

"To resolve this predicament, we must first dispel the sorcerer's words!"

"The Liu family is a firm believer in divination and fortune telling!"

“Before, a fortune teller said that my birth chart could bring good fortune to the Liu family, so he forced Liu Chang to marry me.”

"In this Liu residence, I'm less of a daughter-in-law and young mistress, and more of a feng shui ornament!"

"This sorcerer's surname is Yuan. He appears to be a sage, but in reality, he is well-versed in the art of flattery and deception."

"As the county princess, all I have to do is have this sorcerer say to the family that the He family is no longer the Liu family's lucky star! They will naturally stop keeping me trapped!"

He Weifang no longer hesitated and directly revealed her previous plan.

The county magistrate was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "He Weifang, you are indeed not as simple as you seem! Who gave you the audacity to use me, the county magistrate?"

He Weifang was surprised that Li Youzhen would turn on her so suddenly, but she remained calm and smiled, saying, "We have the same goal! How can you talk about using me?"

"Princess! I have never been your enemy; this is a win-win situation!"

"A win-win situation?" Li Youzhen was completely bewildered upon hearing this and asked, "If this succeeds, I will only be helping you out. What benefit will I gain?"

“Princess, you know I spent the last two nights in the Marquis’s courtyard!” He Weifang said calmly, “You are well aware of the Marquis’s affection for me!”

"If you can do me such a big favor, you will also be helping the Marquis!"

"The Marquis is a very free-spirited and loyal man. How could he not appreciate your kindness?"

"Not to mention the Marquis, even the Marquis's wife and two younger sisters would think you are well-educated, reasonable, and sensible!"

"From now on, your path to the Marquis's residence will be much smoother!"

As soon as He Weifang finished speaking, Li Youzhen indeed showed a thoughtful expression, because these words did have some effect on her.

Since Wei Tingyu already has three wives, adding another He Weifang doesn't seem to make much difference.

But if this incident can really let Wei Tingyu know that he is willing to give anything for him, then it would be a good deal!

However, He Weifang had just denied her affair with Wei Tingyu, but now she said that she had slept in Wei Tingyu's courtyard for two consecutive nights and that Wei Tingyu doted on her... This contradictory statement made Li Youzhen feel very annoyed.

“But you didn’t need to ask me to do this in the first place!” However, Li Youzhen had one more thing she needed to know before she could feel at ease: “Given the Marquis’s status and how much he dotes on you, why can’t he threaten that sorcerer surnamed Yuan for your sake?”

"I'm already troubling you so much before I've even entered the door, I really feel bad!" He Weifang smiled and said, "Besides, if we can handle these things ourselves, why bother you, Marquis?"

"Hehe!" Li Youzhen nodded in satisfaction after hearing He Weifang's answer. It was indeed much the same as she had thought.

This woman is still very stubborn at heart and doesn't want to rely on a man for everything!

That's something she's like about herself!

"If we want to do this, we must act swiftly and decisively, leaving the Liu family no chance to turn the tables!" Li Youzhen blinked, thus truly forming an alliance with He Weifang.

……

Soon, Li Youzhen and He Weifang, having discussed their next steps, returned to the banquet hall one after the other.

Of course, the appearance of the Lady of Ji'an immediately caused a stir among the crowd.

After ignoring the flattery and pleasantries of the crowd, Li Youzhen returned to her seat, only to find Wei Tingyu drinking and playing drinking games with his three wives and concubines, having a great time. Li Youzhen felt a pang of envy at the sight!

There was nothing she could do! She couldn't join right now, so she had to be patient for the time being! Thinking of this, Li Youzhen sighed and then turned to look at Liu Chang in the distance.

Meanwhile, Liu Chang was also secretly glancing at the county princess.

The moment their eyes met, Liu Chang immediately nodded with a sweet smile, revealing his signature smile that he used to wear when they were together back then.

However, this affected smile was utterly repulsive to Li Youzhen at this moment!

When you know someone is acting, everything they do seems fake and unreal.

However, thinking of her previous plan, Li Youzhen suppressed her nausea and whispered a few words to the maid.

Then the maid nodded and walked towards Liu Chang, relaying to him the words the county princess had just told her.

"Young Master Liu! The county princess requests your immediate visit to the Water Jade Pavilion in the backyard. She wishes to see you alone later!" Of course, the maid spoke very softly, so that only Liu Chang could hear her.

Liu Chang's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing this! Sure enough, all his hard work had paid off; he had finally managed to fool Li Youzhen after pretending to be so tired!

The thought of his imminent rise to prominence and becoming the son-in-law of the Prince of Ning filled Liu Chang with excitement!
