Princess Anding looked at her fiercely, still not believing what Chu Heyi could say. She still believed that Chu Heyi was just trying to scare her.

Chu Heyi said: "Do you think that the emperor's marriage between you and Shu Xiao means that he is giving you the most powerful and intelligent general in Daqi as his consort? Do you think that this is the emperor's favor to you, a princess? Do you think that the person who is high above you is you?"

"Isn't that so?" Princess Anding looked as if she wanted to eat Chu Heyi.

"Of course not!" Chu Heyi said: "Shu Xiao stood out among thousands of soldiers. It can be said that he captured Zhou Hanchi alive in the last battle in the northern border and became famous in one battle. He was only seventeen years old that year and is only nineteen this year. He is very young and has a bright future!

"The emperor granted you and Shu Xiao a marriage. On the surface, it was to let you fulfill your promise to jump off the city wall. In fact, the emperor wanted to keep Shu Xiao, a rare talent, and let him continue to guard the northern border for Daqi in the future!"

Of course, the emperor's move also meant to train Shu Xiao to compete with the Zhenbei Marquisate, but Chu Heyi had no need to tell Princess Anding about this.

“The Emperor thinks so highly of General Shu Xiao, and General Shu Xiao is a talent cultivated by my eldest brother. It is no exaggeration to say that my eldest brother is his teacher.

"Once a teacher, always a father. Tell me, if the matter of me stabbing your hand is brought to the attention of the Emperor, will the Emperor make a big deal out of it, or will he punish me?"

Princess Anding was stunned and her face turned pale.

Chu Heyi said: "You are Her Royal Highness the Princess. Although your status is very noble, when your father wants to use you to stabilize a minister, you are just an object."

This statement was a fatal blow to Princess Anding. All the strength in her body was drained in an instant, and she stood there like a walking corpse.

She once thought that Shu Xiao, a man of humble origin, had become the high-ranking prince consort by clinging to her.

But now, Chu Heyi told her that she was just a chess piece used by her father to win over this talented man.

That's right, there is nothing hard to understand. Those princesses who were sent to marry foreign princes in the past were just playing the role of pawns, weren't they?

She was merely married to a general of her own country. How was she no different from other princesses?

Princess Anding almost fell down, and Chu Heyi held her arm. Princess Anding looked at her suddenly, as if she didn't understand why Chu Heyi was holding her.

"Although my status is not as noble as yours, there is one thing we are the same, you and I are both women, people of your status can be used as objects or pawns to stabilize others and deal with others, let alone me."

Chu Heyi looked into her eyes and continued, "It doesn't matter whether others treat us as pawns or objects. What matters is that we live our own lives."

Princess Anding shook her hand off and said viciously: "I am threatening you with the lives of Xie Lin and Shu Xiao. You and I are enemies, why are you talking to me like this!"

"Maybe it's because I'm a woman like you, and it's hard for a woman to live out her own light."

Chu Heyi said: "The most important thing is that women are always treated as objects and given away. This behavior is really annoying! Maybe I am not feeling unfair for you, but just for the women who have suffered injustice and been treated as objects and given away!"

Princess Anding slowly sat down on the chair. Her hands were still bleeding. She just stared at Chu Heyi. There was still hatred and unwillingness in her eyes, but the murderous intent was slowly fading away.

Chu Heyi leaned over, resting his hands on the armrests on both sides of her chair, looking at her from top to bottom.

"Besides, you and I are not enemies, because you can never marry Xie Lin for the rest of your life. He has the same blood as you."

Princess Anding trembled violently, and her face lost all color.

Yes, she thought that since Xie Lin was not of the Xie family, he was no longer her uncle, and there would be less gossip between them getting married - although there were precedents in history books of nephews marrying uncles.

But how could she forget that Xie Lin had ended their uncle-nephew relationship and became her brother-sister relationship!

Like Princess Pingyang, she cannot love Xie Lin.

Princess Anding couldn't accept it for a moment. She gasped for breath and said frantically, "You can never have what I can't have. I will destroy you all myself!"

Chu Heyi's eyes suddenly turned cold, and before Princess Anding could react, he pulled the silver hairpin back.

The moment the silver hairpin left Princess Anding's palm, blood spurted out. Princess Anding screamed in pain and quickly pinched her right wrist with her left hand. Her whole body was shaking and sweat was pouring down.

Chu Heyi pinched her chin, forced her to look up at him, and then said coldly: "I can sympathize with the poor, but I will never be soft-hearted to the bad. Princess Anding can give it a try."

Princess Anding hissed in pain and tears kept falling.

Chu Heyi ignored her, wiped the blood on the hairpin on her lapel, shook her chin away, and strode out of her palace.

Princess Anding did not order anyone to catch up until Chu Heyi saw the bright sky outside the palace. Chu Heyi looked back and walked out of the palace.

It's ridiculous that someone who doesn't understand the situation actually wants to threaten her.

"Please stay, Princess Cheng'an." As they were almost at the gate of the imperial palace, they heard another voice calling from behind.

Because the voice came from Nanny An beside the Queen, Chu Heyi had to stop and asked, "May I ask what you can do for me, Nanny An?"

Nanny An said, "My queen specially invited you to the palace after learning that Princess Cheng'an had entered the palace."

The Queen was a more terrifying existence than Princess Anding. Chu Heyi had no way to refuse, so she had to go to Fengwu Palace with Nanny An.

Along the way, she asked Nanny An indirectly what the Queen wanted her to do, but Nanny An avoided the question and never told her the Queen's purpose.

This made Chu Heyi feel even more alert.

Arriving at the gate of Fengwu Palace, she touched the silver hairpin that was hidden in her hair, and then followed Nanny An in.

The queen was dressed in a smoky purple dress, looking graceful and elegant. She sat on the couch, as if she had been waiting for her for a long time.

Surprisingly, she didn't feel embarrassed when Chu Heyi greeted her and bowed.

Even after Chu Heyi stood up, she asked Nanny An to bring a stool with a furry cushion for Chu Heyi to sit on.

so abnormal?

Chu Heyi became extremely alert.

The Queen seemed to have noticed it, but she didn't say anything. She just asked, "I heard that you and Prime Minister Xie have already decided on your marriage? In three to five days, the wedding will be held?"

Chu Heyi: "To answer the Queen, yes."

The queen looked at her for a while, then winked at Nanny An.
