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

"As for my cousin and I, we were really in love with each other and couldn't help ourselves for a moment. It's all my fault. Uncle, please don't blame my cousin."

Upon hearing this, it turned out to be his relatives. Prince Fenyang's eyes darkened. It seemed that all the people who came to his house today were his relatives.

Since they are all relatives, they naturally cannot be condemned with one blow, nor can they make a fuss and embarrass themselves. The best thing is to acquiesce to the marriage and marry their daughter to him.

But he lowered his head to look at the person on the ground. He was short and had a dark complexion. How could he be the man his daughter liked? His daughter must have been raped by this man.

It's a pity that so many people saw it. If he refused to acknowledge the marriage, his daughter would never be able to marry into a good family in the future.

But if he agreed to this marriage, he really couldn't swallow this breath. He glared at the person on the ground and said, "You! You!"

There was a thud, and after the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, there was another round of "Prince, Prince, what's wrong with you..."

After a while of noise, the room finally became quiet again. Through the gaps between the trees, Meng Wen Yao saw two little maids not far away also leaving in a panic.

"Second Young Master, let's leave too." Meng Wen Yao gently pushed Xie Chenyi.

"Whoever made the mess should clean it up. We will leave later."

After Xie Chenyi finished speaking, he raised his hand, pushed open the window, and with a light push, he sent Meng Wen Yao into the room.

Meng Wenyao was still in shock when she saw Xie Chenyi jumping in. He said in a vengeful tone, "Didn't Mrs. Bao want to frame us? We did it openly. Let's see if she will come to catch us cheating for the second time."

"Second Young Master, you are not going to fight with me just to take revenge on the Bao family..."

"No," Xie Chenyi leaned forward, pulled Meng Wenyao into his arms, stared at her and said seriously, "It's okay if someone finds out. We can be together openly from now on."

"Won't he be thrown into a pig cage?" Meng Wen Yao asked worriedly.

"You think I'm scared!"

Xie Chenyi did not continue to explain, but...

After an unknown amount of time, all the guests had left and Prince Fenyang had regained consciousness. Only then did Xie Chenyi help Meng Wenyao, whose legs were weak, out of the room.

The entire palace became unusually quiet because of this scandal. The maids who came and went all kept their heads down and dared not talk loudly. Fortunately, no one noticed that Meng Wen Yao and Xie Chenyi were walking too close.

They walked all the way to Prince Fenyang's courtyard and slowly distanced themselves from each other. As soon as they stepped into the courtyard, the princess walked over quickly.

"Why are both of you missing? I sent people to look for you for a long time. Are you okay?"

Although she knew clearly that the princess knew nothing and was merely asking, Meng Wen Yao still looked as if someone had discovered something was wrong. Her face flushed red and she couldn't hide it.

The princess was a little curious, so she moved closer to Meng Wenyao and asked with concern, "Are you feeling unwell? Why is your face so red?"

"mother."

At this time, Xie Chenyi spoke in time and asked calmly: "Where is father, why are you standing in the yard?"

"Humph!"

The princess sneered and said, "You two may not know yet, the good daughter of Bao actually dragged her cousin to do such a thing in broad daylight, and was caught by Bao herself. It's really like a flood flushing the Dragon King Temple. Your father was almost angry to death."

"Now, their family will naturally discuss a solution together. It's all a disgrace, and I don't want to get involved. After they have discussed it, we will go to see your father. It will also be considered as a bond between us as husband and wife and father and son."

After explaining the current situation, the princess began to wonder, "It's strange, how could a daughter raised by the Bao family fall in love with that short and ugly cousin? I remember that when she was a child, she hated this cousin and even poured boiling tea on him. How come she likes him when she grows up, to the point of having a private relationship with him?"

Hearing this, Meng Wen Yao lowered her head and smiled. It was not that Xie Ruxue fell in love with her, it was Xie Chenyi who acted as a matchmaker.

She said casually, "Young Miss Four used to bully me, so being my wife now is like paying back your debt."

"No."

Speaking of Xie Ruxue, the princess said bitterly, "This girl is just as black-hearted as Mrs. Bao. When she was a child, she didn't like the young master of the Qian family and threw hot tea at him. When the prince dragged her out, she actually said that Yi'er asked her to do it. It was obviously her fault that caused my Yi'er to be punished. Today, she has to marry such a person. She simply deserves it."

No wonder Xie Chenyi hated Xie Ruxue so much. It turned out that she had schemed against him in the same way when he was a child, and maybe even more than that. Now that this marriage has been arranged, it seems that she has taken revenge.

But I don’t know how Xie Chenyi persuaded the cousin of the Qian family to agree to do such a thing. Was it also to avenge his childhood?

She secretly glanced at Xie Chenyi and saw that he didn't seem to care at all about what the princess was saying, as if he didn't remember anything about his childhood.

However, Meng Wenyao, who knew the whole story, knew that this person had been holding a grudge for many years in order to seek revenge.

She turned to the princess and asked casually, "With such a scandal happening today, will the prince be so angry that he firmly disagrees with this marriage?"

"No." The princess said firmly.

"First of all, everyone knows about this matter. Only by recognizing the marriage can we make things right. Otherwise, Xie Ruxue will die in the family temple, and our palace will not be able to erase this stain for decades."

"Secondly, this Mr. Qian is the grandson of the prince's aunt. As soon as I heard about this, I asked someone to invite that aunt. She is a princess appointed by the emperor himself. If she wants to marry Xie Ruxue by relying on her age, even the prince cannot refute her. Will she really make a scene in the palace and let the emperor and the empress dowager laugh at her?"

In this case, there is no room for maneuver in this marriage, and Bao's mother and son have been discussing in Prince Fenyang's room, probably making their last-ditch efforts.

"It looks like there's going to be a wedding in our house?"

When a brother or sister passes away, it is normal to observe mourning for at least three months. Now it has only been 35 days since Xie Nanan passed away. If we hold a wedding ceremony, it will be really embarrassing.

The princess pouted and laughed, "It's really embarrassing. The eldest son is not even 77 years old yet, and his brother has taken a concubine, and his sister has secretly given birth to a concubine. In order to avoid getting married with a big belly in the future, it seems that the wedding may have to be completed earlier. Bao has raised a pair of good children. I want to see how much the prince can spoil her. Will everyone in the capital stand at the door of our house and laugh at us in the future?"

The princess was complaining unscrupulously about Prince Fenyang's partiality when she heard a loud voice suddenly coming from the gate of the courtyard.

"Where is my grandson? Where did you take him? When will it be Bao's turn to be the boss of this family?"

The legendary aunt arrived as soon as she was mentioned. Meng Wen Yao hurriedly followed the princess and went forward to pay her respects.
