Quick Wear: The Cannon Fodder Male Supporting Character's Counterattack

Chapter 169 The Time Traveler’s Ex-fiancé (1)

The two eunuchs did not dare to disobey, so they brought writing brushes, ink, paper, and an inkstone, as well as a small table on the kang.

Ning Ning started writing on the bed.

Anyway, he didn't ask for beautiful handwriting. On the contrary, he wanted others to not be able to recognize that it was the handwriting of this body.

He memorized many well-known ancient poems, and then instructed the two eunuchs, "Find someone to print it. Give this collection of poems an inconspicuous name. The number of copies does not need to be large, and the quality does not need to be excellent. In short, I want this collection of poems to be available on the market, but it must not attract attention."

Ning Ning felt it was a bit weird as she spoke. What was the difference between this and the project's client wanting "colorful black"!

But these two eunuchs had been serving the original master since childhood and were loyal to him. They were accustomed to obeying his various orders, so they responded and left without any doubt.

Looking at their backs, Ning Ning lay down somewhat weakly and continued to recuperate.

The original body was a prince.

The current emperor Ning Meng had seven princes, but only the original emperor and Ning Chao lived to adulthood.

Ning Chao was the eldest son and was made crown prince when he came of age.

Although the original body had never thought of competing for the throne, he had always lived in fear.

Because he knew that Ning Chao was a narrow-minded person and only pretended to be kind and generous on the surface.

Ning Meng also liked the original body very much, and even felt a little sorry that he was not the eldest son. Ning Chao saw through his thoughts, so he was very hostile to the original body.

The original body had always been worried that if Ning Meng died in the future, he would fall into the hands of Ning Chao, and his end would not be good.

Later, he became engaged to Zhong Li Yao, the daughter of the Minister of War. The two met secretly and were very satisfied with each other.

Unfortunately, Zhongli Yao suddenly fell seriously ill, and her temperament changed drastically when she woke up. She said a lot of words that others didn't understand, and said that she didn't want to be bound by this arranged marriage and wanted to cancel the engagement with her original body.

Then, she fell in love with Ning Chao. The Minister of War came to the palace to apologize, and Ning Chao knelt at the door of the study room and refused to get up. He said that he and Zhong Li Yao were in love and asked the emperor to grant their marriage.

As for the original body, it’s easy to deal with. Just find him a noble lady.

Compared with her original self, Ning Meng still valued the prince more, so she changed the engagement.

The original body fell ill directly, not only because he was sad about Zhong Li Yao's choice, but also because he knew that Ning Chao would never let him go.

He is engaged to Zhong Liyao, so Ning Chao will dislike him even more and will definitely deal with him after he ascends the throne.

Sure enough, a few years later Ning Meng passed away and Ning Chao succeeded to the throne.

Even though you have been extremely careful, you cannot hide if someone really wants to find fault with you.

Soon, Ning Chao found a random crime, imprisoned the original person, and tortured him to death.

After Zhong Li Yao found out, she laughed at Ning Chao for being "stingy" and thought the original body's death was just part of their play.

After he turned into a spirit, he realized that the real Zhong Li Yao had died of illness.

Her body was also occupied by a woman from later generations, and all the outrageous words and deeds that followed were done by that woman from later generations.

When Ning Ning traveled through time, the engagement was being revised. Her original body was sad and depressed, so she fell seriously ill.

Ning Ning published a collection of poems and spent the rest of her time recuperating.

The original body was indeed not in good condition, so this was a good opportunity to take care of it.

When the imperial physician examined his pulse, he also discovered that his pulse was much more vigorous, and he immediately went to report to Ning Meng in great joy.

Ning Meng was also happy. He didn't have many children, and of course he didn't want Ning Ning to get hurt, so he ordered him to rest and recuperate, and also gave him a lot of supplements.

The recuperation lasted for more than a month, and Ning Ning kept an eye on the movements of Zhong Li Yao and Ning Chao at the same time.

Sure enough, when people heard that Zhongli Yao had said many amazing things and written many poems that were praised by people, her name as a "talented woman" spread throughout the world for a while.

Originally everyone thought that Zhongli Yao's breaking off of the engagement and getting engaged to the prince was a bit frivolous, but since she was so talented, she was truly a rare and extraordinary woman in ancient and modern times.

It seems reasonable that such an outstanding woman would have more demands in marriage.

Some people even said that, from this perspective, only the prince is worthy of Zhongli Yao, and everyone else is just a toad wanting to eat swan meat.

People around Ning Ning were somewhat indignant. For such a rumor to spread, it was most likely guided by someone.

But you clearly broke off the engagement first, why are you now slandering others?

Ning Ning remained unmoved and took care of her body.

Ning Meng was very happy when he heard about it and specially held a banquet to celebrate. Of course Ning Ning had to attend.

This was a royal family banquet, so there was no need to dress too formally. Ning Ning chose a light blue brocade robe and a jade pendant on her waist. Her eyebrows and eyes were handsome and elegant, and although her skin was still a little pale, she had a calm and self-controlled demeanor.

Ning Meng was very satisfied after seeing this. "After being sick for a while, he seems to be more stable now."

Seeing that Ning Chao and Zhong Liyao had not arrived yet, he called Ning Ning closer and said, "There is no need to worry so much for a girl. I will definitely find you another noble lady from an aristocratic family."

"Your Majesty, let's discuss this matter later. I want to get my health back first."

"Well, that's fine. If you find a girl you like, you must tell me."

As they were talking, a clear voice came, "Oops, are we late?!"

Zhongli Yao and Ning Chao arrived.

Ning Meng frowned slightly, but Zhong Liyao seemed not to notice. She smiled and bowed to Ning Meng, "Your Majesty, I have made something new and want to present it to Your Majesty."

"Oh, what is it?"

Ning Meng also became interested. He had heard about the recent rumors about Zhong Li Yao and wanted to see if Zhong Li Yao had become smarter as rumored.

Ning Chao hurriedly ordered his men to bring up the gift box. He opened it himself and saw a box full of ice.

"Father, Yao'er has just learned how to make ice, and I'm giving you the first box of ice I've made. With this method, we won't have to worry about ice in the summer, and we don't need to use such a crude method of storing ice in ice storage."

Ning Meng was a little disappointed. It turned out to be an ice-making technique, but it was still useful.

Well, he was overthinking it. Could a woman like Zhongli Yao really come up with any strategy for governing the country?

Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "Well, you guys are thoughtful. Tell this method to the Bureau of Manufacturing and let them promote it."

Zhong Liyao showed a slightly smug smile, "Your Majesty, I have more ideas than that."

As she spoke, she took the jade bowl from the table next to her, took out some ice, and then took out a few bottles, pouring some colorful water from them and pouring it on the ice.

She held the ice bowl up with both hands, "Your Majesty, please try it. This is the ice bowl I made. It tastes very fresh and sweet. I haven't tasted it myself, so I'm offering the first bowl to you."

"Yao'er, why didn't you tell me?"

Ning Chao felt that it was inappropriate to offer food to Ning Meng like this, but he was used to pampering Zhong Li Yao these days, so he didn't stop it.

Ning Meng frowned, not wanting to let anything of unknown origin enter his mouth. Ning Ning even shouted, "Father, be careful, you can't eat this!"
