Chapter 42 My sister doesn't want to marry me?
Nangong Yue initially looked bewildered, but suddenly became anxious.
He pouted, his eyes reddening, and looked at Chu Xunzhen with a wronged expression, asking, "Sister, is she your future sister-in-law?"
Chu Xun's heart pounded wildly as he approached Nangong Yue.
That day, he suddenly fainted in the mansion.
She was worried, but she couldn't enter the palace.
Later, fortunately, Anshun's father-in-law brought the news.
Seeing his aggrieved and angry expression today, she couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.
"No, I have nothing to do with her," Chu Xunzhen said. "Today she took a lot of precious medicinal herbs, refused to pay, and insisted on occupying a VIP seat on the second floor."
After Chu Xunzhen finished speaking, Eunuch Anshun immediately glanced at Gu Songrong, who was being held by two guards.
Gu Songrong noticed An Shun's gaze and sneered, "Let me go right now! My elder brother is the heir apparent, and my father is the Marquis of Chongding. How can you arrest me over such a trivial matter?"
"A trivial matter?" Chu Xunzhen sneered. "Gu Songrong, you know perfectly well whether those precious medicinal herbs were all used to treat the Marquis or resold by you."
She knew how strapped for cash the Marquis of Chongding's household was.
He used the money from reselling her medicinal herbs to propose marriage to Chu Wanrou.
Gu Changfeng really did have a good plan.
She naturally wouldn't let him have his way.
Gu Songrong's expression changed, and she said sternly, "What nonsense are you spouting? How could our Chongding Marquis's mansion do such a thing? Chu Xunzhen, I am your future sister-in-law, how dare you not help me? Do you still want to marry my brother?"
Why is Chu Xunzhen acting so differently today?
Normally, he would call her "Matsutake" or "Matsutake," but today he was calling her Miss Gu.
"Sister is going to marry Prince Gu?" Nangong Yue asked awkwardly. "Don't you want to marry me?"
Looking at Chu Xunzhen with a wronged expression, Nangong Yue's eyes reddened, and the beauty mark under her left eyelid seemed to come alive, shimmering with a bewitching red in the watery light.
Chu Xunzhen was almost unable to cope.
When an ugly man makes such a move, Chu Xunzhen would only find him greasy, but Nangong Yue's every move and every glance seems to have an inexplicable attraction, making people unable to help but be intoxicated by her.
"Your Highness, please don't listen to her nonsense. Xunzhen has been waiting for Your Highness all along."
Chu Xunzhen spoke slowly.
To stay away from Gu Changfeng, you must marry a man who is inferior to Gu Changfeng.
Her biological parents treated her as a commodity to be traded, but the person in front of her, whether in her past life or this one, has saved her countless times.
In his previous life, Nangong Yue divorced his wife and later died alone and tragically.
In this life, she wants to help him so that he will no longer suffer as he did in his previous life.
Gu Songrong was stunned, and immediately burst into curses: "You, Chu Xunzhen, how dare you flirt with His Highness here? Now you must release me and give me all the medicinal herbs I asked for today, otherwise I will tell my elder brother and you won't even be able to be a concubine in the Chongding Marquis's mansion."
Everyone was stunned and began to discuss it amongst themselves.
"Is Chu Xun really going to become a concubine at the Marquis of Chongding's residence?"
"Young Master Gu actually wants her to be his concubine?"
"Although Chu Xunzhen returned from the countryside, he has done countless things to help the Marquis of Chongding's mansion in the past three years."
"Even ordinary people are familiar with her, yet now she can only be a concubine? Wouldn't the principal wife be someone of even higher status?"
Chu Xunzhen suddenly looked at Gu Songrong and said, "Your elder brother has already proposed to Chu Wanrou. I will not become a concubine in the Gu family."
Gu Songrong was stunned. She knew her elder brother was going to propose marriage to Chu Wanrou, but Chu Xunzhen was also going to enter the Gu family.
If she doesn't enter the Gu family, where will the family find money to cover expenses in the future?
"Chu Xunzhen, you're just a boring country bumpkin who only knows how to do business. What kind of marriage do you even dream of? Sister Rou'er doesn't mind and is willing to give you this opportunity to serve my elder brother with her. What more could you ask for? Giving you the title of concubine is already an honor. Don't be foolish and ungrateful!"
Gu Songrong advised.
The eldest brother had only proposed marriage to Sister Rou'er, and Chu Xunzhen was already so angry that he wouldn't even give her medicine on credit. He was really stingy.
Chu Xunzhen looked at Gu Songrong with a half-smile.
In her past life, she arranged an excellent marriage for Gu Songrong.
The man's family had a tradition of not taking concubines, but she was still not satisfied. She would sometimes mock her and join forces with the Lady of Chongding to torment her.
He even took pleasure in tormenting her.
In this life, she has already come up with a good way to take revenge.
Nangong Yue hung her head, looking like a forgotten little animal. Chu Xunzhen immediately gave a mocking smile: "Gu Songrong, do you think I'm a fool? Giving up being the Ninth Prince's Consort to become a prince's concubine?"
Gu Songrong opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but upon seeing Nangong Yue's appearance, she couldn't utter a word for a long time.
After a long pause, she finally spoke: "But you used to love my brother so much that you would even die for him? Now we're just asking you to be our concubine. We won't really treat you like one, so why are you so bothered?"
Chu Xunzhen didn't want to waste any more time with her. She turned her head to look at Nangong Yue, her voice softening slightly: "Please help me, Your Highness, to hand her over to the authorities. If the medicinal herbs she took before are really used to treat Lord Chongding, I won't hold it against her. But if she's trying to take advantage of the situation and resell my herbs, then she must make up for the money she owes me."
"Yes, make up for it. The girl is kind-hearted, and the herbs are cheap. If there really is any reselling of medicinal herbs, we will be the first to object."
"Good! Reselling medicinal herbs is absolutely forbidden."
"I support Miss Chu."
The people shouted loudly.
Reselling medicinal herbs at several times the original price is a recipe for disaster.
Gu Songrong was taken away.
She couldn't believe it, struggling and yelling at Chu Xunzhen, "You wait! My brother Gu Changfeng will definitely rescue me. Chu Xunzhen, you heartless, petty, and jealous woman! Whoever marries a jinx like you is doomed!"
Chu Xunzhen's eyes flashed, and a cold smile appeared on her lips.
Even at this point, she still deliberately mentioned her reputation as a jinx in front of the Ninth Prince.
Sima Zhao's intentions are obvious to everyone.
"Gu Songrong, you should really think about this. Once you're in the government office, will you ever get out? Even if you do manage to get out, who would want to marry a noblewoman like you who's been through the wringer?"
"Ah! Chu Xunzhen, how cruel you are!"
Gu Songrong roared.
Chu Xunzhen said a few words to Eunuch Anshun, who smiled knowingly and immediately asked a passerby for a pair of smelly socks, which he stuffed into Gu Songrong's mouth.
"Ugh!" Gu Songrong almost fainted from the stench.
Nangong Yue suddenly spoke solemnly: "Sister, you are not a jinx. Don't listen to them. People with heart conditions see everything as dirty."
Just then, a voice came from afar.
"Young lady, this old servant has finally found you."
When Ah Lin saw the Ninth Prince, he was extremely surprised: "Greetings, Your Highness."
"What's wrong? What happened?" Chu Xunzhen asked in surprise.
The location of the Gu worms is harmless to the body, so my grandfather should be harmless as well.
"The old man is alright, it's just that..."
