A little devil has arrived at the Marquis's mansion, and all the powerful officials in the cour

Chapter 116 The Curse of the Corpse-Driving Clan in Western Hunan, Seeking a Son-in-Law

Qin Zhenzhen entered the Marquis's residence.

Prince Qing had been waiting there for a long time, and turned around when he heard footsteps.

She was stunningly beautiful and had a graceful figure; just by looking at her, one could tell she was incredibly noble.

She didn't seem to come from a merchant family at all; she had even more of an air about her than the daughters of prominent families in the capital.

A hint of joy appeared in Prince Qing's eyes.

With Qin Zhenzhen's looks alone, it's worth abandoning Cui Yingying!

"Zhenzhen greets Your Highness." Qin Zhenzhen bowed.

Prince Qing grinned: "You must be Miss Qin. As the rumors say, you are indeed a woman of unparalleled beauty."

At first glance, Qin Zhenzhen knew that Prince Qing was not very learned. How could someone like that want to compete for the throne?

She harbored suspicions, but remained outwardly calm.

"Miss Qin, please rest for a while before entering the palace." The old man in black robes, whose chess formation had been broken and who had suffered a backlash, was not fit to be seen by others. His voice came from inside the house.

Qin Zhenzhen glanced at the closed door and nodded: "Yes."

...

At the Su residence, Prime Minister Cui and Cui Yingying had just left.

Liu Shang then arrived.

"Mother, Sister Cui said she wants to find a son-in-law. Does that mean she wants to marry a man?" Renbao asked Pei Yuru, lying sprawled in the rocking chair.

Pei Yuru nodded: "Yes, Prime Minister Cui's first wife died early and only gave birth to a daughter. Given her family background, there are plenty of men willing to marry into her family."

Renbao seemed to be thinking about something, and then said in a clear voice, "When I grow up, I want to marry a man and have him have my babies."

Su Xuance almost stumbled and fell as soon as he entered the room.

Marry a man?

"Daddy!" Renbao's sharp eyes caught sight of the crispy mountain in his hand, and he couldn't help but swallow.

Su Xuance strode forward, gently pinched her delicate nose, and picked her up with one hand: "Little glutton, men can't give birth to babies."

Renbao licked the crispy mountain, her eyes widening: "Is that Renbao going to marry a man when she grows up and have his baby?"

These words were spoken.

Pei Yuru and Su Xuance's expressions both changed.

To marry off his daughter.

Experiencing the pain of childbirth.

Forget it!

I'd better marry a man! Whether or not I have offspring is not important.

"Renbao can marry a man, it doesn't matter whether Baobao has a child or not," Pei Yuru said softly.

She didn't marry the wrong person; Su Xuance is a very good husband.

Before she could establish her own household, she suffered greatly at the hands of her mother-in-law in the Marquis's mansion, and her son, Renbao, was even switched at birth for three years.

For all these reasons, she didn't want Renbao to marry Su Shuying; being a daughter was much more comfortable than being someone else's daughter-in-law.

"Thief!"

Tao Xiang's exclamation drew everyone out of the house.

Renbao ran the fastest, her face full of excitement. Who came to steal her house?

"I'm not a thief!"

Liu Shang was climbing the wall when Tao Xiang spotted her and she fell face-first to the ground.

Before leaving, Renbao looked left and right, feeling that she looked somewhat familiar.

Liu Shang slowly raised her hand, her fingers holding a hundred-tael silver note. She turned her bruised and swollen face towards Renbao: "It's me, one hundred taels. Please, Little Yama, help me."

It's a little awkward...

"Sister Yishang!" Renbao exclaimed in surprise, then pinched her nose, "You smell so bad!"

Liu Shang's lips moved slightly, then she fainted.

Renbao scratched his head and sighed like a little adult, "Oh dear, I'm so busy!"

Pei Yuru couldn't help but chuckle: "Would Renbao like to rest?"

"No way, I need to make money!" Renbao took the silver note from Liushang's hand, folded it, and put it in the small pocket on her chest. She chuckled, touched it, and laughed again.

Little money-grubber.

Pei Yuru looked at her tenderly and had the servants move Liu Shang into the house.

"Little Yama, save us!" Liu Shang cried out in her sleep. She woke up with a start and sat on the couch, panting heavily.

Renbao rang his golden bell and jumped over the threshold: "Xuanxuan told me that the descendants of your Xiangxi corpse-driving clan are cursed, and all newborn babies will die before they reach the age of three."

Liu Shang knelt down and pleaded, "Little Yama, please come with me to western Hunan."

Renbao shook his head: "It's too far! I just got home, I don't want to go."

"Little Yama, my clan has a mountain of gold. If you lift the curse, I am willing to give you the mountain of gold," Liu Chang said earnestly, her tone pleading.

Renbao's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and she said sweetly, "Okay, I've never been to Xiangxi either, let's go check it out then."

She definitely didn't like gold!

Granny Meng said, "Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda."

She went to rescue people!

...

When the Cui family announced the search for a son-in-law, talented young men from all over the city flocked to the residence.

Cui Yingying, dressed in a bright red dress, sat in the main hall. Her bright eyes and white teeth, along with her exquisite features, captivated many men, who eagerly composed poems praising her beauty.

So cool!

Cui Yingying stayed with only handsome, tall men. She ate pastries and drank tea, enjoying their adoration.

If I had known I would be living such a good life after being divorced.

She regretted not doing it sooner.

"Little Celestial Master, which one do you think I should choose?"

Cui Yingying looked at Renbao, who was lying on the rocking chair next to her, gnawing on a duck leg, and her attitude was as gentle as could be.

She is now a loyal "lickspiel" of Renbao.

In just one day, she spent several thousand taels of silver to buy gold, all kinds of children's dresses, and the most famous food in the capital, and presented them to Renbao.

Renbao pointed to the man in the corner who hadn't said much: "He has the best face, he's a good person, Sister Cui chooses him!"

Cui Yingying looked over and saw that the man Renbao pointed to was named Yang Ping, a student of Bailu Academy.

He seemed to sense something, looked up, and the two looked at each other.

"Wow, he's really good-looking." Cui Yingying clutched her wildly beating heart and gave Renbao a thumbs up. "No wonder he's called Little Celestial Master, he has such good taste."

Yang Ping had a refined and handsome appearance, and was somewhat thin. Among the group of men who came to his door, he was dressed the most simply, wearing only a cloth robe.

His gaze toward Cui Yingying was clear and discerning, and he nodded slightly.

The maid said, "Miss, this man's name is Yang Ping. He comes from a poor family and his parents are both dead. I'm afraid..."

"Great!" Cui Yingying's eyes lit up as she listened. "He's the one."

The maid paused for a moment, then very sensibly shut her mouth.

"Miss Cui is a beautiful and noble woman, gentle and generous. After I enter the manor, I will serve you well, study diligently, and strive to achieve success in my studies so that I can support you."

The man speaking was named Zeng Zheng, and he talked on and on.

Renbao finished gnawing the duck leg clean, wiped her chubby little hands, and then she wanted to go home.

"Stop talking!" Renbao peeked out from behind the screen, pointing her chubby little finger at Yang Ping. "He's destined to be with Sister Cui, so don't bother, just go back to your seats."

Zeng Zheng was stunned. He came from an ordinary family and just wanted to take this opportunity to become Cui Xiang's son-in-law and rise through the ranks.

Who is this little baby?

do not know.

He scolded, "What do you know, you little brat? Yang Ping's parents are both dead, and he's cursed to bring misfortune to his relatives. How could he be worthy of Miss Cui?"

"He doesn't deserve it, you don't deserve it, none of you deserve it!"

An angry voice rang out.

The main hall fell silent abruptly.

Everyone looked towards the doorway.

Prince Qing arrived uninvited, and he was incredulous when he heard that Cui Yingying was choosing a husband.

She, a woman who had been divorced, behaved in such an unconventional way after only one day.

It's utterly absurd, utterly insane.

"Cui Yingying, you want to get my attention, but there's no need to do this. It will only damage your reputation."

You, a woman who has been divorced, instead of reflecting on why you were divorced, are showing your face in public seeking a husband. You are simply not a virtuous wife!

Prince Qing pointed at Cui Yingying and roared angrily.

Renbao picked up a duck leg bone and slammed it against his knee, saying in a childish voice, "You shameless person!"

"Your Highness!" The attendant rushed forward to help Prince Qing up, preventing him from kneeling on the ground.

Zeng Zheng looked at Ren Bao with a deathly pale face.

Who exactly is this little baby that even Prince Qing dares to beat and scold him!
