al decree” Qian Tingxuan glanced at him, his eyes unconsciously turning cold: You little punk, dare to covet his young wife If he doesn't give you a slap, it would be considered polite."No! That's not..."It's fine for now." The Emperor looked at his unfortunate son, muttering despondently.
"That's good then." Qian Simu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Dust, do you have anything else to say" The Emperor saw that he hesitated, guessing that what he wanted to say was probably the same as what the Grand Astrologer had just said.
"My son indeed has something to say to his father..."
The Emperor interrupted him, "That's enough. Let's discuss this further back in the Nourishing Heart Palace." There might be spies from outside watching, and some matters are best discussed privately for peace of mind.
"Yes!"
The Emperor was right, what Qian Si Chen said was indeed related to Ge'er, and his suggestion was quite simple.
"Father, absolutely do not allow Feng Wuji to leave Lan Zhao!" Qian Simin naively thought that as long as Feng Wuji didn't leave Lan Zhao, then Ge'er wouldn't be taken away by him.
The Emperor let out a cold snort: “Chen’er, now the entire world knows that Feng Wujie came to Lan Zhao to celebrate my birthday. You are now keeping him here against his will. Are you trying to make everyone in the world feel cold towards me In times of war between two countries, we wouldn't even kill an envoy. What's more, Lan Zhao and Tianzhu are still allies on the surface. By arbitrarily detaining their regent, aren’t you forcing Tianzhu to immediately join forces with Chiyan to attack Lan Zhao”
"Your Majesty, forgive my presumption!"
“I see that you are not lacking in foresight, but your mind is clouded by love!” Looking at someone who is obsessed with romantic notions of sons, the Emperor couldn't help but feel disappointed. If it weren't for Xiao Yuge being a woman of great fortune and aura, like this woman who could charm the future monarch, he probably wouldn't have kept her.
Qiansi Chen pursed her lips, remaining silent...
The Grand Tutor, on the other hand, seemed to have come up with a good plan: “Your Majesty, although His Royal Highness is infatuated with love, what he just said was not entirely unreasonable. If we can’t keep Feng Wuji, then let's keep Princess Huanguo!”
"If it's confirmed that Ge'er is Feng Wuji's daughter, then we have no reason to keep her!" The Emperor seemed to have thought of this as well.
"There's no reason, so why not find one And one that even Feng Wuji can't refuse!" The Grand Tutor seemed to have everything figured out.
"State Master, do you have any good strategies" Hope flashed in the eyes of the Emperor and Qian Sicheng. Xiao Yuge was a woman of good fortune, they deeply believed that with her here, she could ensure the prosperity of Lan Zhao for thousands of years to come. Naturally, they wouldn't stand idly by watching her leave.
“My lord, I do indeed have a good reason, but…” The Grand Tutor deliberately paused.
"The Grand Master may speak freely, I pardon you!" The Emperor was not foolish. Seeing that he intentionally remained silent, he had already guessed that what he was about to say would surely touch upon his taboo. But for the sake of Lan Zhao as a whole, he was willing to accept anything.
"Your Majesty is wise..."
The Pearl Mansion.
Xiao Yu Ge was originally lying under a tree basking in the sun, but suddenly he sneezed several times in a row, frowned and said: “Who is cursing me”
Qing Luo, who was standing beside her, chuckled and teased, "Miss, the Wangye must be thinking of you."
"Qingluo, even you are making fun of me."
"Miss, how dare I jest with you What I said is the truth. The Master has always been so good to you, and he's never been apart from you for this long. Of course he misses you."
Xiao Yuge listened to Qing Luo's words, but she smiled softly and thought to herself. Since she met Qian Tingxuan, they had never been apart for so long. In a blink of an eye, it had almost been half a month, and he still hadn't returned. She wondered if he was alright out there
"Qing Luo, today is the big day of Princess Wu and the young master's wedding. Go get my pair of jade ornaments and send them as a gift."
"Yes, ma'am."
Xiao Yuge was about to lie down again when she saw Lu Xiangwan, who hadn't been back for several days, return at this time.
"My Lady!" Lu Xiangwan now truly treated Xiao Yuge as her mistress.
"Lu Jie, where have you been these days I'm so worried about you." Xiao Yuge also found it strange. Lately, Lu Xiangwan always went out for no apparent reason and didn't say what she was doing. She even secretly instructed the people from Shuangxue Lou to follow her, but her own people said they lost track of her every time, which was very strange.
"It's all my fault. I made the princess worry." Lu Xiangwan looked apologetic: "I saw a girl on the street that day who looked very much like my sister, so I followed her, and as a result, there was a misunderstanding. Until now, I haven't gotten any news about the enemy. I'm really useless..."
“Sister Lu, don’t blame yourself too much. This isn’t your fault. You don’t even know who the enemy is or what they look like. It’s like searching for a needle in a haystack. It’s understandable that you haven't found any clues. I believe that heaven will help you.” Xiao Yuge also found it strange. Logically speaking, with the capabilities of Qianjigong and her Shuixuelou, finding some clues shouldn't be difficult. But surprisingly, after so long, neither she nor Qianjigong had found a single clue. It was as if everything that happened in Miaoling had nothing to do with the outside world.
"My Lady, thank you!" Lu Xiangwan's eyes welled up with tears.
"Well, there's no need for thanks between us."
"My Lady, these days, I might have to run outside and won't be able to attend to you..."
Before she could finish her words, Xiao Yuge interrupted her: "Lu Sister, when I brought you back, I said that you are not a slave of Mingzhu Mansion. This is just your home. Whatever you want to do or go out, it's your freedom. You just need to tell me once, and you will be safe!"
"County Princess..."
"Alright, go get some rest. You look like you haven't slept well these past few days." Xiao Yuge gently patted her shoulder.
"Mm." Lu Xiangwan nodded gratefully, then turned and left.
Looking at her retreating figure, Xiao Yuge's expression gradually became grave: hoping it was just his own imagination.
"Miss, here are your belongings!" At this moment, Qing Luo brought out the small box containing Bao Yu.
"Put it in the house."
"Very well, miss."
The next morning.
Xiao Yu's song got up early, tidied herself up, and then took Qingluo to the Dingbei Houfu.
Today, the Dingbei Hou Mansion was bustling with activity. Although Duke Dingbei was far away at the border fighting against Chiyan, the old madam of the mansion insisted on holding the wedding ceremony for Wu Chengzong and Mu Huan. This move also received the emperor's support, after all, Princess Wu is now representing Tianzhu. At this time, an alliance with Tianzhu is undoubtedly the wisest decision.
Unlike Xiao Yu Ge's wedding, the marriage of the Fifth Princess and the Young Master went remarkably smoothly. From getting into the palanquin to bowing at the altar, there was not a single hitch.
Looking at Mu Huan in her red wedding dress, Xiao Yu Ge sent her blessings from the bottom of her heart. Her friends were few and far between, and Mu Huan's future with Qian Ting Xuan was still a mystery. So, she hoped that at least her friend could be happy.
The newcomer had entered the bridal chamber, and the banquet officially began. Xiao Yu Ge originally planned to sit with her parents, but Feng Wu Ji sat beside her.
