As the most capable disciple of the old Prime Minister Song Ren'an, Yun Xuanzhi shared many unknown secrets for the old Prime Minister and His Majesty the Emperor.

It was him who had been secretly supporting the old prime minister's legitimate daughter Song Wan to secure her position as imperial concubine and enjoy everlasting favor.

In the court, he helped the Third Prince Ning Wang Cangmin to win over the hearts of the people, eliminate dissenters, create a reputation for him as a kind and generous person, and raise funds for him to train troops. His hard work should not go without any reward. The position of Queen must be his daughter, and the Ning Wang's Consort must be Wanqing.

He knew Li's plan clearly and was also condoning Li's arrangement.

As long as he could make the engagement with the old prime minister's mansion invalid, he would find a way to make his daughter the Princess of Ning. As for who would be sacrificed in the process, anyone would be fine, he didn't care.

On the second day in the hall, a piece of news shocked Prince Sheng Cangyu so much that he felt like he was falling into an ice cellar.

"The princess of Xiling, Jiang Ruyi, was granted as a concubine to Prince Sheng?"

"Your Majesty rewarded King Sheng for his achievements and gave him the title of Xiling's most beautiful woman. This can be regarded as recognition of King Sheng."

"The Xiling marriage delegation should be satisfied now. It would be a pity if a beautiful woman who just came of age was allowed to enter the harem."

"With Prince Sheng marrying Xiling, the people of the Western Territory will no longer suffer from war. This is a blessing for the people."

From officials to taverns and teahouses, the news was spread and discussed everywhere, and most of the voices were those of celebration and praise.

The gates of Prince Sheng's mansion were tightly closed, and the atmosphere inside was so low that no one dared to speak.

"Cousin, you can't be so willful as to refuse the marriage this time. This time it's the Emperor's decree. From all aspects, it's beneficial to Dongcang Country, and you have no reason to refuse the marriage."

When Sheng Xiaoge heard the street rumors, he quickly put down his business and ran all the way to Prince Sheng's Mansion, for he was worried that Cangyu would do something stupid again.

"I know what you mean, but Miss Yun is a concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Her status is not suitable for you, and she can't become your princess. Although her status makes her a concubine, it is unfair to her, but you must think about this."

Sheng Xiaoge spoke eloquently, breaking down and repeating these words.

Gu Feng and Xiu Zhu knew too well their master's intentions and plans over the past six months. Every step was to get closer to Miss Yun.

However, there are always external forces pulling them away.

After the marriage decree was announced in the main hall, Cangyu remained silent, trying not to make his refusal too obvious.

Your Majesty ordered Prime Minister Yun and the Ministry of Rites to arrange the marriage arrangements without any mistakes, and then he left the court.

Cangyu fell into deep thought for a long time.

He kept wondering, what was the situation like in his previous life?

He was trying hard to remember.

Jiang Ruyi must have entered the harem, and within less than a year, news of her death was announced.

He didn't know how the person died, it was probably due to some shady tricks used by the concubines in the harem.

In his previous life, he was still favored by Xia Linshuang and was also granted marriage by the Queen.

But during this period he was poisoned and was rescued by a masked woman in white. From then on, he fell deeply in love with her and wanted to find that figure.

After failing to get rid of Xia Linshuang's entanglement, he was forced to get married.

On the wedding night, he didn't like her clinging to him and accidentally injured her severely. Three days later, Xia Linshuang died.

The Xibohou Mansion refused to give in.

Your Majesty was obsessed with the power of the Xibohou Mansion and demoted him to a commoner, banished him from the capital, and prohibited him from returning without being summoned.

But things have changed in this life.

When the Queen arranged for him to marry into the Xibohou Mansion, he already had a plan in mind.

From his experience in his previous life, he knew very well that His Majesty had long been wary of the power of the Xibohou Mansion and had been tentative about the Queen's marriage.

Your Majesty was not happy with his marriage to the Xibohou Mansion, so of course he was happy to see him refuse the marriage.

However, the change in the choice of marriage partner was something he had not expected. What went wrong?

Why didn’t Jiang Ruyi enter the harem?

What does the emperor think?

How is he going to break this deadlock?

What would Yun Qianyou think of him when he heard the news?

Question after question popped up in his mind, and he felt a little restless.

No, he had to go over there quickly and explain everything.

At this time, Qiao Mu was having a secret conversation with Yun Qianyou in Yingyue Residence.

"According to the information we received, that person is from Xiling. According to the information we received from the Xiling Qianmai Palace branch, it is very likely that he is Xiling Crown Prince Ling Xiao."

Qiao Mu looked at Qian You, who was still calm and composed. He couldn't help but be impressed by her character.

He then reported the news he had received.

"This person is 21 years old and is a role model for Xiling scholars. He studied under the Grand Tutor Jiang Yuan. He is known for his gentleness and elegance, but his martial arts are average. He and Jiang Ruyi grew up together and can be considered childhood sweethearts. The backyard of the Crown Prince's Mansion is now empty, and the position of Crown Princess has been vacant. Rumor has it that the Crown Prince is waiting for Jiang Ruyi to grow up. But in the days when she was coming of age, Xiling was defeated. The two sides proposed peace talks and recommended candidates for marriage. Jiang Ruyi's reputation as the most beautiful woman was too great, so she had to be named a princess and sent to marry. It is said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince begged on his knees for many days, but failed to change the situation. Later, our people sent news that the Crown Prince of Xiling was ill and had not appeared in the court for a long time. All forces were looking for his whereabouts."

"Oh? There is such a hidden secret." Qian You was a little moved.

"I really admire this prince. He has average martial arts skills, but he dared to chase Dongcang in person. He attacked several times on the way and showed no intention of retreating. This time he failed, probably because he saw the capital of Dongcang and made a last-ditch effort, which left him covered in bruises. It seems that this is a love that lasts until death."

Qian You rarely expressed emotion, and Qiao Mu also had a better impression of this man.

"Today, there is another incident that is spreading widely in the streets."

Who would have known that when he heard the heated discussions among the public, his mood instantly improved.

As someone who felt the same way, how could he not know the look that King Sheng Cangyu gave Qian You?

But he couldn't express his dissatisfaction, because he and Qianyou had not confirmed their relationship, and he had no right to stop him from getting close to Qianyou.

However, he knew deeply that Qianyou attached great importance to feelings.

She hated men having three wives and four concubines. Although he didn't know why she hated it, he didn't care. On this point, he was definitely able to do it.

However, King Sheng has already been eliminated from this matter.

"what's up?"

Qian You calmed her mind. She was indeed a little touched just now.

"Your Majesty has arranged for the marriage of the princess, Jiang Ruyi, the most beautiful woman in Xiling, to be married to Prince Sheng Cangyu. Now the whole city is discussing this matter, and everyone thinks it is a great thing for the peace of the people in the Western Territory. Prince Sheng must not refuse the marriage this time."

King Sheng?

He was married again?

The man had threatened to kill himself to refuse the marriage proposal last time. The first time he saw her after waking up, his affectionate look had a lot of meaning in it, which she did not understand.

He said something to her, but she didn't listen carefully at the time. What was it?

Yun Qianyou felt inexplicably uncomfortable, irritated, and helpless.
