Quick Transmigration: Help, The Male Leads Are All Broken!

Rong Jin's expression was on the verge of cracking. He stared at Su Tang, and seeing her serious face, without a hint of jest, he could finally confirm that this little thing really wasn't lying.

However, thinking about how she was different from other noble young ladies in the capital, he understood.

"Marriage is about seeking a spouse, how can it be based solely on looks? Nonsense!"

For a devilish person to seriously say "nonsense," Su Tang couldn't help but want to curl her lip. Who was the real troublemaker here?

But, she wouldn't dare say that even if she had ten times the courage.

"Ninth Uncle, how can this be nonsense? Talent can't be seen, only the face can be seen clearly."

In his first twelve years, Rong Jin, as the Crown Prince's eldest son, had seen all kinds of people, but he had never seen one like her.

"Who says talent can't be seen? If it couldn't be seen, wouldn't the imperial examinations become a joke?"

Su Tang said, "There are millions of candidates in the imperial examinations, but how many can truly rise to the top? Even if they do, they might be the top scholar today, but what about next year? Won't they be tossed aside in a corner, with no one remembering them?"

Rong Jin was amused by this twisted logic. "Yes, there are indeed such cases, but not everyone is like that. Take the Prime Minister for example, he came from a poor family…"

Su Tang looked at him and interrupted softly, "Yes, came from a poor family and became the Prime Minister. But in the end, when he got old, his son had his tongue cut off by a commoner and he didn't dare to say a word."

Rong Jin: …

Su Tang continued, "Came from a poor family, but he married a noble lady from a powerful family to rise through the ranks, but in the end, he favored concubines over his wife and treated his illegitimate son as his legitimate son. I wouldn't want someone like that even if you gave him to me."

Rong Jin felt like he was being led astray by her. If he said she was shallow for only looking at faces, she thought very clearly, anticipating all kinds of possibilities, although they were all tragic.

"There are always exceptions."

Su Tang said, "Even if there are exceptions, life is short. I don't think I can necessarily find one, so why should I gamble my future on such an ethereal person?"

Rong Jin, Rong Jin was speechless.

Su Tang changed her previously timid demeanor and actually patted his shoulder, comforting him, "Relax, Ninth Uncle, you don't have to worry about my marriage. There are plenty of fish in the sea, and the good-looking ones are always coming. Besides, why can't I be like a man and have beauties on both arms?"

If another girl said such a thing, Rong Jin would definitely think she was frivolous and loose, but when Shen Tao said it, he couldn't bring himself to criticize her.

No, when did he get led astray by her?

He kept her around not to let her enjoy herself, but to torment her and avenge the humiliation he suffered at her hands!

"Is that what a young lady should say? It seems you've forgotten everything written in the 'Female Precepts'."

Su Tang shrugged indifferently, "Even if you make me copy the 'Female Precepts' ten times, it won't work. That thing can never restrain me."

In that instant, he vaguely recalled the scene when he was foolish.

Shen Tao was two years younger than him and had many tricks up her sleeve. He remembered that it was about as cold as it was now, during the New Year. The Marquis's residence was lively inside and out. Although he was foolish, he still reacted to the outside world. As he stared blankly at the world outside the walls, she darted out, dressed like a little fur ball.

Because it was the New Year, the little girl was dressed particularly brightly, in a bright red outfit that couldn't be ignored. At that time, she was only thirteen years old, but she was already strikingly beautiful.

He remembered that he was dazed for a moment.

Then she said that if he wanted to go out, he should meow like a cat. If he meowed nicely, she would take him out to play.

Rong Jin didn't even know how a cat meowed at that time, so he just stared blankly at her, saying "meow, meow, meow" with a foolish look.

Shen Tao seemed to laugh until she clutched her stomach, and then taught him again and again how a cat meowed.

Later, she ran over with a woman's dress and asked him to put it on.

The foolish Rong Jin was very obedient, or rather, very obedient to her. Because he knew she gave him food, and knew that when he was sick, she would come to save him, so in the end, he even began to rely on her.

He put on the woman's dress without hesitation and walked out of the courtyard where he had been confined for nearly four years. He remembered that he was very happy that day, but as he was happy, he got lost with her…

The sealed memories began to revive. He remembered that she finally found him, but she looked as anxious as if the sky was about to fall. Later, he learned for the first time that she was so skilled, beating those human traffickers until they had no power to fight back. If the people from the yamen hadn't arrived in the end, those people would have been beaten to death by her.

In the end, she was unwilling to take him out of the residence again.

He had always been unwilling to recall these things, because subconsciously he felt ashamed that the eldest grandson of the Crown Prince of the Da Ye Dynasty needed a little girl to survive.

On the one hand, he felt that she had humiliated him and wanted to keep her alive to humiliate her in return, but in reality, the real reason for not killing her was because she had saved him several times.

However, he was the eldest grandson of the Crown Prince. Everyone under the heavens, as long as they were in Da Ye, should worship and serve him. It was already his benevolence that the Zhongyi Marquis's residence hadn't been exterminated.

"Ding, Blackening value decreased by 10%, current blackening index: 90%."

The Shen Tao in front of him was very much like the spirited little girl in his memory. During this period, she had been so timid and cautious that he had almost forgotten what she used to be like.

"It's fine if you say these things to me, but you can't say them to others."

Su Tang was used to being unruly and didn't take it seriously. As a result, her ear was pinched, and she howled before finally understanding.

Rong Jin clicked his tongue in disgust, "You sound so awful when you scream, don't go around harming other men."

Su Tang covered her ear, feeling very aggrieved, but there was no fear in her eyes. Moreover, not only was she not afraid, but she was also a little eager to do something.

He knew too well what she was eager to do. Once he began to let go of his foolish self, the little girl's former vivid appearance began to be firmly imprinted in his mind.

After all, from the age of twelve to seventeen, those five years were almost entirely occupied by her.

Su Tang snorted, then muttered softly, "Little Ninth Uncle should take a look at himself. He's already nineteen years old, and he'll be twenty after the New Year. Other men his age might already be holding their babies and being fathers."

Rong Jin felt that the little thing was really getting bolder and bolder, daring to joke about him.

"Xiao Tao'er, is your skin itching again recently?"

Su Tang shrank her neck, not daring to be cheeky anymore.

Rong Jin didn't stay with her for long. However, when he left, Su Tang couldn't help but shout at his back, "Little Ninth Uncle, if someone comes to propose marriage, please take a look at their appearance for me. I don't want anyone uglier than you!"

The corner of Rong Jin's mouth twitched. Well, this cheap little niece was probably destined to be alone for the rest of her life.

However, it was unknown who leaked the news in the end. On the last day of Su Tang's confinement, her Eldest Aunt and Third Aunt ran over with a pile of paintings, saying they were going to help her find a suitable match.
