At the same time, Qin Shao's favorable impression of the North Vanquishing Prince's Estate had also fallen to the lowest point.
Gu Shengyin didn't know that she could actually receive such additional benefits when she went out once.
Since the day she met Zhang Mingshu, Gu Shengyin slowly came into contact with Zhang Mingshu more and more. Zhang Mingshu also gradually began to talk about everything with her.
"Judging from Elder Sister Meng's age, the noble ladies in the capital should already be engaged at this age. I wonder if Elder Sister Meng is engaged?" Zhang Mingshu asked.
Gu Shengyin blushed and lowered her head without saying a word.
Zhang Mingshu had an idea in her heart. She recalled that although she and her cousin were in love with each other, they couldn't be together forever. She faintly said, "I wonder which family's young master is so blessed."
Gu Shengyin still had a shy expression, "I haven't met him yet, but his reputation is extremely good."
Little did she know that her shy and expectant look had touched Zhang Mingshu's sore spot.
She was afraid that she would never have the chance to become a bride in this lifetime. The Grand Tutor's Estate was so sinister. If the young miss of the Liang Estate was spoiled and unruly, how could she be allowed to marry into the family?
Seeing her suddenly shedding tears, Gu Shengyin seemed to be extremely surprised and hurriedly asked what happened.
Zhang Mingshu wiped her tears with a handkerchief and a sudden desire to pour out her heart surged in her heart.
She slowly began to tell her story.
The more Gu Shengyin listened, the more she couldn't help sneering in her heart.
In Zhang Mingshu's narration, she and her cousin were in love with each other and should be a match made in heaven. However, her cousin's fiancée came out of nowhere and used her family's background to forcefully ask the Emperor to grant the marriage. In order to avoid arousing suspicion, she had no choice but to leave her cousin and live in this place alone.
If an unreasonable person heard this, they would definitely think that the couple in this story was affectionate and helpless, and that the fiancée was naturally the vicious and unlikable villain.
Gu Shengyin sneered: Not to mention that the Liang Estate originally didn't have the intention to marry into the North Vanquishing Prince's Estate, that imperial edict was also personally requested by the old Princess Consort of the North Vanquishing Prince's Estate. How could the Liang Residence be considered as breaking up an affectionate couple? Moreover, if he had known that Qin Yuanzheng had such a childhood sweetheart, Grand Tutor Liang would not have been willing to betroth his daughter to such a family even if he had to defy the imperial edict.
Truly, what a sharp tongue that could distort black and white!
Seeing Zhang Mingshu looking at him pitifully, Gu Shengyin knew in his heart that she definitely wanted him to say something. It would be best if he could stand with her against a common enemy and denounce that "vicious" fiancée of his.
She wouldn't let her have her way!
Gu Shengyin looked worried as she looked at Zhang Mingshu with concern, "What plans do you have for the future? Since your cousin's marriage was bestowed by the Emperor, it is impossible for him to be divorced. A person like Younger Sister, of course, would not let herself be a lowly concubine. "
When she talked about being a concubine, Gu Shengyin's face didn't conceal her disdain.
Zhang Mingshu was choked by her words. She never would have thought that Gu Shengyin would say this. A normal person's train of thought would be to pity her and then comfort her while angrily denounce her cousin's fiancée, right?
Moreover, when Gu Shengyin said these words, no matter how thick Zhang Mingshu's skin was, she was too embarrassed to say that she was planning to become the "lowly" concubine that she was talking about.
No, she couldn't even be considered a concubine. In any case, a concubine still had a status. Her current appearance could only be considered as a shameful outside wife.
