The Dark and Foolish King: The Fierce and Crazy Concubine Has Infinite Strength

Just as he was thinking, Su Yu walked towards him with a serious look on his face, as if he had encountered something.

Lu Xiuyuan looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he asked seriously, "What's wrong with Su Yu? You don't look well."

Su Yu got straight to the point, "Your Majesty, something terrible has happened. I just heard that there is an imperial decree from the palace, requiring Miss Tang Ran to enter the palace as a concubine!"

"What?!" Lu Xiuyuan stood up suddenly, his face full of shock.

"How could this happen? Was it the imperial decree from Lu Shian? Did he fall in love with Xiao Ran? That's impossible. He is still infatuated with Shi Qing, it's impossible for him to like someone else."

Su Yu shook his head. "I don't know. I just heard that Tang Guojing accepted the imperial decree. He seems to want Miss Tang Ran to enter the palace as a concubine."

"Tang Guojing has high standards and doesn't like me. I knew he wanted his daughter to enter the palace and become the noble queen. But I didn't expect Lu Shian to agree. He loves Shiqing madly, but he wants to marry Tang Ran in the blink of an eye. This is not normal."

Lu Xiuyuan sat down again, picked up the teacup and took a sip of water, his brows furrowed so tightly that it seemed as if water could be squeezed out of them.

After pondering for a while, he seemed to have thought of something, and his face looked as if it had just been fished out of ink, becoming extremely ugly.

"Oh no, this may be because of me."

"The prince's reason?" Su Yu was puzzled.

Lu Xiuyuan slammed his fist on the stone table. Veins popped out on his forehead due to anger, his eyes seemed to be able to spit fire, and his fists were clenched so hard that they made a creaking sound.

“First: I married Shi Qing, which was considered as stealing Lu Shian’s woman. Lu Shian has always held a grudge against me.

“Everyone in the world thinks that before I lost my memory, Xiao Ran and I were childhood sweethearts and lovers who loved each other. I’m afraid Lu Shi’an thinks so too.

"He is taking revenge on me. He wants to give me a taste of my own medicine."

Su Yu also pursed his lips and asked again: "Your Highness's guess is not unreasonable, but you said one reason, is there a second reason?"

Lu Xiuyuan sighed angrily and continued angrily, "Secondly, it should be that Xiao Ran has been running to the palace every day since returning to Beijing, and the news has spread to the palace, causing those thieves to become suspicious and afraid that Tang Ran will be related to this prince.

"Tang Ran's father holds military power. If we can win over Tang Guojing, it would be like hanging a knife over Lu Shian's throne. Ye Baijiang and others would never tolerate such a thing happening."

Su Yu suddenly realized everything, "It seems that they wanted to stop Tang Ran from getting close to you, so they summoned Tang Ran to the palace to stop Miss Tang Ran from having any thoughts about you."

Lu Xiuyuan's brows were twisted into a knot, and he murmured with a frosty face: "No, we must not let this happen.

"Lu Shian doesn't love Xiaoran, and Xiaoran doesn't like Lu Shian even more. Once Xiaoran enters the palace, it will be like jumping into a fire pit, and her life will be over! This matter was caused by me. How can I let them use Xiaoran and ruin her?"

Absolutely not. Xiaoran is innocent and he cannot let her lose her lifelong happiness.

Although he had no love for her, they had been childhood sweethearts for more than ten years, so there was some affection between them.

Su Yu was at a loss, "But Your Majesty, the imperial decree has been issued, and there is no room for regret. You are in a state of dementia now, what can you do?"

Lu Xiuyuan tapped his temple with his index finger, pondered silently for a while, sighed, and said: "It has come to this point, no one else can do anything, only the person involved can do something."

Su Yu exclaimed, "The person involved? Are you talking about Miss Tang Ran?"

Lu Xiuyuan nodded and analyzed: "Tang Guojing is famous for doting on his daughter. As long as Xiaoran cries and insists on not entering the palace, Tang Guojing will not be willing to force her.

"Tang Guojing is a high-ranking official with great military achievements. If he disagrees with his beloved daughter entering the palace, Lu Shian would not dare to force him."

"Then I will go find Miss Tang Ran and tell her not to enter the palace." Su Yu said and turned to leave.

"Brother Xiuyuan!"

As soon as Su Yu left, Tang Ran ran over, crying and sobbing, looking so pitiful with tears in her eyes.

Lu Xiuyuan felt extremely guilty and stood up and walked towards her, wanting to persuade her.

"Brother Xiuyuan!" Tang Ran rushed over and hugged him tightly, feeling extremely anxious and heartbroken.

She had just received news that the emperor actually wanted her to enter the palace as a concubine, and her father also accepted the imperial edict.

This is really ridiculous. I love Brother Xiuyuan, how can I marry the emperor?

She would not agree, she was ready to threaten her father with death. She came here just to hope that Brother Xiuyuan would not misunderstand her, she would reject the marriage.

Seeing her crying and anxious, Lu Xiuyuan felt uneasy thinking that he was the one who harmed her. He did not have the heart to push her away and let her cry in his arms.

"Brother Xiuyuan, I..."

"Don't marry the Emperor!"

Her words were interrupted by Lu Xiuyuan. She was stunned and swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

Brother Xiuyuan said not to let her marry the emperor? Why? Is it because he cares about me? Is it because... he likes me?

She didn't say anything, and Lu Xiuyuan thought she didn't hear clearly, so he said, "Don't marry the emperor, okay?"

Tang Ran cried with joy, rolled her eyes, and deliberately cried out in pain: "No! You don't like me, why don't you let me marry someone else?"

Lu Xiuyuan frowned, speechless for a moment.

How could this happen? According to Xiao Ran, isn't she going to refuse the marriage? Doesn't she dislike Lu Shian?

Tang Ran leaned on his shoulder and cried sadly, sobbing and complaining: "If you didn't lose your memory, if you still liked me, I would never marry anyone else even if I died.

"But you just forgot about me. I came every day to help you recover your memory, but you were always so cold and indifferent to me."

Lu Xiuyuan had a bad feeling in his heart.

Could it be that she is angry that I forgot her and is being willful and sulking?

However, what you fear will come true. Tang Ran angrily punched him on the shoulder with a crying voice, "So, if you don't like me, why don't you let me marry someone else?

"I'm telling you, I've had enough. I work so hard every day to help you recall the past, but you don't even give me a good look. I'm going to marry someone else, and I won't bother you anymore!"

"You...don't say that." Lu Xiuyuan's heart was in a mess and he didn't know what to do for a moment.

This silly girl, how could she risk her lifelong happiness to be angry with him?

Just because he didn't remember her and treated her not so well, would she marry into the deep palace in a fit of anger and marry someone she didn't like?

No, he couldn't let her do that. He couldn't afford the sin.

Tang Ran was still crying and angrily scolded, "You bad guy, if you don't want me anymore, then leave me alone. I just came here to say goodbye to you. I will go to the palace and marry someone else soon!"

Brother Xiuyuan cared about her, so could she stimulate him to recover his memory by doing this? Even if not, maybe she could force him to admit that he liked her.

"I'm leaving. If you don't like me, then I'll like someone else." She said as she reached out to push him away, preparing to leave his arms and go home.

Lu Xiuyuan gritted his teeth and reached out to hold her in his arms again.

After much hesitation, he really had no other choice but to use the stupidest method to temporarily stabilize her.

"I... I like you." He said insincerely, with helplessness and sigh in his tone.

I'm sorry, Xiaoran, I can't just watch you jump into the fire because of me.

I can only deceive you temporarily. Once you get your father to cancel the marriage, I will tell you the truth.

I know that giving you hope and then disappointing you is too cruel, but I really have no other way. I hope you can forgive me when the time comes.
