The empress is pregnant, and the emperor's incense continues

There were a lot of things inside and outside the palace, but he could still be detoured by Ning Qinghan in a few words. Fortunately, the Ning family behind Ning Qinghan was finished now, and he would not be able to get up again in the future.

Whenever Meng Mingxuan has a more powerful father-in-law, he doesn't have to wait for the future queen to listen behind the curtain. The current father-in-law can directly seek power and usurp the throne.

This emperor is really just playing for fun.

When he looked up again, Meng Wenyao's face was already filled with tears. Meng Mingxuan was startled: "Sister, why are you crying?"

This was the first time he saw Meng Wenyao cry. He was so confused that he didn't know what to do. He just grabbed Meng Wenyao nervously and coaxed: "Don't cry. If you have anything, tell the emperor brother."

"It's nothing. I just never thought about getting married. My father, the emperor, and my mother are gone. In this world, I only have one relative: the emperor. I thought I would be with the emperor for the rest of my life. I didn't expect that one day I would be killed by the emperor." When my sister-in-law gets married, the emperor’s sister-in-law dislikes my sister-in-law as an eyesore, doesn’t she?”

Meng Mingxuan did not expect this situation at all. He naively thought that Ning Qinghan just wanted Meng Wenyao to have a happy family.

Now listening to what Meng Wenyao said, their brother and sister are indeed the only relatives in the world. If Meng Wenyao leaves the palace to get married, they will really be alone, how pitiful...

"Probably not, your imperial sister-in-law... forget it, it doesn't matter whether she marries or not, it's up to you to decide whether to marry or not. The emperor will never force you."

With that, he took the fold away from Meng Wenyao's hand and threw it out: "Burn it."

Then he continued to coax Meng Wenyao: "As my brother, I only have you as a relative. I am very worried about you leaving the palace alone. Let's not talk about the marriage. When you want to get married in the future, how about the emperor chooses someone for you?" good?"

The tears gradually stopped, Meng Wenyao nodded obediently, and the marriage was called off.

As night fell, Meng Wenyao stood in front of the window admiring the moon, thinking about how to deal with Ning Qinghan. It would definitely not work if she was crippled, and the next one who came up might not be easy to deal with.

But Ning Qinghan must be taught a lesson. The Ning family has fallen, and she can still act like a monster. She really doesn't have a long memory.

"The humble minister meets the princess."

Looking back and seeing Ye Lianyi, Meng Wenyao was surprised and said, "Why did you come here today?"

"This is the list of new scholars last year. Please take a look at it, Princess."

Meng Wenyao took it and read it page by page. Their origin, family, age, and marriage were recorded one by one. They were supposed to select some suitable people and place them in the sixth department.

Somehow, Meng Wenyao thought of today's wedding. If she married any noble family, she would be their daughter-in-law, and she would leave the palace and live in the princess' mansion.

What if she doesn't choose a noble family, but chooses one of these poor Jinshis. Poor background is easy to handle. She can continue to live in the palace after marriage. With her husband's family as a cover, Ning Qinghan will not dare to take advantage of her again in the future. The marriage is a raft.

Thinking of this, Meng Wenyao asked casually: "Master Hou, have you seen all these people?"

"No." The voice of the man in front of him was low and deep, which was inexplicably reassuring.

"Then take a look at all the unmarried people under the age of 25 and select a few that you like and give them to me."

Unknowingly, Meng Wenyao has trusted Ye Lianyi so much that she can leave everything to him.

"Why did Your Highness choose them? Why did you only choose the unmarried ones?"

At this point, Meng Wenyao remembered that she had rejected Ye Lianyi's proposal before, and now she asked him to help find a suitable adult candidate. Isn't it too inappropriate?

After being embarrassed for a while, Meng Wenyao decided to tell the truth. Since he had no one available, the matter must be left to Ye Lianyi.

Secondly, Ye Lianyi had to know sooner or later. Instead of letting him hear it from elsewhere, it would be better for her to say it directly herself.

With a dry cough, Meng Wenyao apologized: "I told you before that in order to help the emperor protect the court, I cannot leave the palace to get married, but today..."

Meng Wenyao paused for a while, then continued: "The queen advised the emperor to leave the palace to get married. After all, I am a woman. If I stay in the palace for a long time, I will definitely attract criticism.

If you marry a child from a noble family, you will definitely not be able to live in the palace, so I want to marry a child from a poor family and then send him to work far away. No one in my husband's family dares to discipline me, so that I can continue to stay in the palace. . "

Ye Lianyi could understand every sentence, but together, he couldn't understand it. After a long silence, he asked: "Princess wants to marry someone else? Doesn't she want to marry Chen? Is it because of Chen's background?"

"No."

After Meng Wenyao answered quickly, she realized that Ye Lianyi asked three questions, but her answers had no direction.

Afraid that Ye Lianyi was thinking too much, Meng Wenyao quickly explained: "If I marry you, I will have to leave the palace. This is the last thing I want to do, and your rights, coupled with my status, , if we get married, after a long time, the emperor brother will definitely be jealous.

Although the emperor now trusts me very much, once I am not with him for a long time, he will hear more and will be suspicious of us. The emperor may not do anything to me, and will definitely take away your military power. "

"I don't care about military power." Ye Lianyi answered without thinking.

Meng Wenyao took a breath and said softly: "But I am worried about handing over the military power to others. You are the only one in the court who has the ability to defend the territory. Compared with the important affairs of the family and the country, my personal affairs are insignificant."

After a deathly silence, Meng Wenyao spoke again: "It's not that I don't want to, it's our special status that prevents us from being together as husband and wife, do you understand?"

"don't know."

Ye Lianyi really didn't understand. He felt that the princess could marry whomever she wanted. How could she want to marry him, but couldn't because of the fear of a possible future king?

Okay, it was all in vain for a long time. Meng Wenyao was a little frustrated and said depressedly: "Don't rush this matter now. You have people pretend to be the emperor's secret guards and quietly tell Lin Jiaojiao that the people who spread rumors about her in the capital are the Ning family. They are all The rumors about her privacy were all spread by Ning Qingrou under the instigation of the Queen.

The emperor demoted the Ning family to the capital in order to protect her, so that she could rest at home. The emperor would find a good time to take her into the palace, but because of the rumors, her status might not be too high, so she should not be too sad. "

Meng Mingxuan concealed the real reason why the Ning family was demoted. This was not conducive to the escalation of the fight between Lin Jiaojiao and Ning Qinghan. Meng Wenyao could only kindly remind Lin Jiaojiao that those who wanted revenge would complain. .

Thinking about how Lin Jiaojiao and Ning Qinghan would get along with each other after entering the palace in the future, Meng Wenyao felt extremely gratified and used her strength to save energy. She didn't want to waste her time on Ning Qinghan all day long. Let Lin Jiaojiao take action.

"Yes."

Ye Lianyi did not leave after accepting the order, looking at Meng Wenyao who was about to speak but hesitated.
