When the Alluring Queen opened her eyes, all the kings in the world knelt down

Gu Anxian stopped crying and sat up, staring at him quietly with a pair of red and swollen eyes: "Is this true?"

"Of course it's true." Mu Wenxuan nodded and raised his head to wipe the tears from the corner of her eyes, "Although it was Yan Li who poisoned me and threatened me, I know that you have wronged you by marrying me. Madam, please don't worry, I I will make it up to you in the future.”

Although the prime minister's legitimate daughter had no choice but to marry her because of her reputation, the prime minister still held the power, and Mu Wenxuan was not stupid enough to break up with Gu Anxian.

This woman is now his wife. Regardless of whether she blames him or hates him, they are already a couple who have worshiped heaven and earth. They have been together in life and death, so Gu Anxian must accept her fate, and he also needs to hold on tightly to the big tree of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Trees, 꺳 will have endless benefits.

Mu Wenxuan had a wishful thinking in his heart. Prince Yu's Mansion is now out of power - no, it should be said that Prince Yu's Mansion has long been out of power. There is an unprecedented prince title but no real power. The officials below will have less filial piety and no real power. This means that there are few ways to make money, and many lucrative industries are under the control of people with real power. It is difficult for Prince Yu's palace to get a piece of the pie.

The prince's small salary alone was much higher than the salary of a first-class official in the current dynasty, but in the prince's palace, which was accustomed to squandering, the annual income of 10,000 taels of silver was simply a drop in the bucket.

What's more, now that the prince has been demoted to a county king, his situation is even worse than before. The demotion of the title also lowered his status in the emperor's heart. It is conceivable that Prince Yu's palace will get worse and worse in the future.

If you marry a powerful official, your situation will be very different.

Mu Wenxuan looked at the beautiful daughter of the Gu family and secretly rejoiced in his heart. Maybe he should thank Yan Li for threatening him, otherwise how could he have the courage to plot against Gu Anxian?

Sure enough, wealth can be found in danger, this sentence is correct.

"Mu Wenxuan." Gu Anxian wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, regained her usual composure, and looked at him coldly, "What are you thinking about?"

Mu Wenxuan came back to his senses, quickly covered up the messy thoughts in his heart, and put on a smile: "I didn't think about anything, I was just sighing that I was so lucky to marry a wife like Madam."

When he said this, he seemed to have completely forgotten that his good luck was entirely calculated.

Gu Anxian looked at the greed in his eyes, and a feeling of disgust arose spontaneously. She closed her eyes gently: "Both the Ninth Prince and Yan Li are here for the wedding banquet today?"

"Should be here." Mu Wenxuan nodded, "I don't know if I'm leaving now." m.

"You do something for me."

"What's up?"

Gu Anxian opened her eyes and said in a cold and ruthless voice: "Today's wedding, the palace has invited a lot of wedding ladies, cooks and maids to help. After the wedding is over, you can give them more silver rewards and ask them to take some with them when they leave. The words went out and were praised among the aunts and children."

Mu Wenxuan was surprised: "What are you bringing?"

"Come here."

Mu Wenxuan leaned over and Gu Anxian whispered in his ear for a while.

Mu Wenxuan's eyes widened: "This... this..."

"Just do it."

Mu Wenxuan suppressed his shock, "But what if Uncle Nine Emperors finds out..."

"Don't you think what I said makes sense?" Gu Anxian asked coldly, "Even if you don't know what kind of temperament Yan Li had before and what kind of temperament he has now, the Jiang family should know best, right?"

Mu Wenxuan said nothing, frowning and thinking deeply.

"If you are worried, you can first go to the Jiang family and ask before making a decision." Gu Anxian said coldly, "Besides, there are so many people coming today. If you ask them to go out with the message, even if the Ninth Prince wants to investigate, he can't be sure. Who is the source?"

Of course this last sentence was meant to fool Mu Wenxuan.

The Ninth Prince has led troops to fight for many years. It is too easy to find out this matter, but Gu Anxian doesn't care.

As long as the matter is big enough, even the Ninth Prince cannot protect Yan Li. After all, the civil and military officials in the dynasty are all literati. They are pedantic and stubborn. As long as they believe that Yan Li is "possessed" by something, they will take it as a matter of course. He believed that the emperor and the ninth prince were deceived in their preference for Yan Li.

And Yan Li's inconsistent temperament before and after is the biggest evidence.

When things got out of hand and the emperor could no longer protect Yan Li, he had to negotiate with his ministers.

The Ninth Prince would not like an "unclean" thing.

Mu Wenxuan felt that what she said made sense, and there was indeed something strange about Yan Li.

"I promise you." Mu Wenxuan nodded, and then looked at her in embarrassment, "It's just that there are a lot of people invited to the palace to help today, and the reward is not a lump sum, and my head is a little tight..."

Gu Anxian didn't say anything. She got up and walked to the bedside and opened a dowry box.

Mu Wenxuan followed and walked over. The two boxes placed by the bedside were only part of Gu Anxian's dowry. However, when the boxes were opened, the shining golden ingots inside suddenly made his eyes red, and he wanted to move the boxes together.

Gu Anxian ignored his reaction, took out a box from the bottom of the box, stood up and handed it to Mu Wenxuan: "There is a thousand taels of silver in it. You can use it first. If it is not enough, come back."

Mu Wenxuan nodded repeatedly: "Madam, don't worry, I will definitely handle the things you have done well."

"If things go well, these two boxes of gold and silver are rewards for you." Gu Anxian knew that there must be a brave man under a heavy reward, so she quickly dropped the bait and completely dispelled Mu Wenxuan's worries.

Mu Wenxuan's eyes lit up, and he stretched out his arms to hug Gu Anxian into his arms: "Madam, you are so generous. Leave this matter to me, and I will definitely handle it properly."

After that, he held the box in his hand and walked out.

Gu Anxian watched him leave without saying a word, the color in her eyes gradually cooled down. After an unknown amount of time, she walked to the window and stood there, listening to the noises outside that were out of tune with her - noises that did not belong to her.

Gu Anxian was already dead, dead in Fengming Tower.

Now the only one alive was a walking corpse who wanted to seek justice for herself.

Yan Li ruined her, she would make her lose her reputation and make her life worse than death.

No one knew what the newlyweds had conspired in the bridal chamber.

The guests at the wedding banquet gave their blessings on the surface, but in fact most of them were just watching the fun. Occasionally, they whispered to each other and talked about how Prince Yu's Mansion had picked up a big bargain for nothing, and that the dandies really had their own advantages...

Mu Cang had always disliked such occasions. He sat quietly for a moment and then got up and left. Fortunately, he met Yan Li outside the gate. The two smiled at each other and got on the carriage and left.

"Why don't you stay a little longer?"

"Prince Yu's Mansion is not a pleasant place for me, and Princess Yu doesn't necessarily like me that much, so there's no need to stay and add to the disgust." Yan Li said calmly, "It's more comfortable to go home to eat and rest."

Mu Cang suggested: "Go to Prince Jiu's Mansion?"
