"Wuchen saved my life. From now on, he's my man. I'm serving my man. Who dares to say anything?"
Hearing Su Wan's words, Chi Xueyuan's expression changed. She subconsciously glanced at Feng Wuchen on the bed. Then her gaze landed on Su Wan's face. "Princess royal, you're wrong. Xueyuan remembers that cousin once said that he would never marry anyone in this life. Even if the other party was a noble lady, he would still marry her and enter the Feng Family's door. Therefore, if you want to marry cousin, I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed. "
"Oh?"
Su Wan couldn't help but laugh. "Who said that I'm going to marry Feng Wuchen? I'm going to marry him! "
"Wh-what?"
Chi Xueyuan was completely stunned. "Princess royal, you … you're not joking right?"
Since the founding of Luanfeng Country, Bi Lou was the first noble lady to get married. This had already angered Her Majesty. Now, the princess royal was going to risk the world's condemnation and marry a man! Even if that man was a military officer, this was definitely a stain to the imperial power!
"Princess royal, Her Majesty won't let you do this."
Chi Xueyuan had to put on a serious expression.
"Her Majesty? Chi Xueyuan, are you using Her Majesty to pressure me? "
Su Wan slowly got up and walked to Chi Xueyuan step by step. "Getting married is a joyous occasion. Prime Minister Chi, you don't need to worry about me. When it's time for my wedding with the military officer, I'll naturally send you an invitation. It's getting late. Prime Minister Chi, you should go back now right? "
Seeing that Su Wan was asking her to leave, Chi Xueyuan gritted her teeth and then left unwillingly.
Until she walked far away did Su Wan slowly turn to look at Su Rui who was pretending to be asleep. "Your good cousin left. Get up."
"Heh."
Su Rui sat up and smiled awkwardly. "Cousin is right. There's no need for that. Wife, you're not jealous are you? "
"How could I be that childish?"
Su Wan turned her face to the side. Seeing that she wouldn't admit it no matter what, Su Rui's gaze flashed and he immediately changed the topic: "Do you have any clues as to the identity of the assassin this time?"
"Not yet, but those two won't be able to escape."
Su Wan heard Su Rui's question and immediately became serious: "If I'm not wrong, it should be that person."
"Killing with a borrowed knife? Killing two birds with one stone?"
Hearing Su Wan's words, Su Rui's gaze couldn't help but turn cold. She dared to send people to assassinate his wife. She really didn't know how to write the word death, right?
"He knows how to use the 36 Stratagems, but can't we do the same?"
Su Wan glanced at Su Rui and the two people looked at each other and smiled —
Since you want to kill us with a borrowed knife, then we'll beat you at your own game!
The next day, the people of Jingdou were still discussing the wedding ceremony that had been stained with blood the day before. Guesses as to who the mastermind was had already begun to circulate.
Who in the capital dared to make a move against the eldest princess?
Who in the capital had the strongest conflict with the Eldest Princess?
And who's interests would be affected by the Princess Royal's marriage?
Everything was silently pointing to one person. That person was the current Empress!
Imperial City, imperial palace.
Su Man's expression was dark as she listened to Hong Shuang's report. She clenched her fists tightly.
Su Wan agreeing to marry Bi Lou to Lu Changge was indeed a slap to Her Majesty's face. But Su Man wasn't stupid enough to send people to assassinate Su Wan at this time and shed all pretense of cordiality with her. This was definitely an unwise move.
This matter was not done by Su Man, but in the entire capital, it was very difficult to find another person with such strength and so many elite deathsworn.
Unless …
It was Su Wan herself.
After dismissing Hong Shuang, Su Man stood up and paced around the hall a few times. In the end, she brought people to Liu Luo's palace.
At this time, Liu Luo was still practicing his sword.
Seeing Su Man's figure, Liu Luo immediately put away his sword and quickly walked to Su Man. "Your Majesty, why are you here?"
Liu Luo understood Su Man the most. According to what he knew of Su Man's habits, she should be handling government affairs at this time every day.
"Liu Luo, I have something to discuss with you."
While walking into the palace, Su Man told Liu Luo his suspicions. Other than practicing martial arts, Liu Luo was also well-versed in various military strategies.
His personality was really calm and steady. He was the best person to talk to.
Liu Luo pondered for a moment hearing Su Man's guess. "I heard that many people died in the princess royal residence yesterday. Unfortunately, I don't know much about the situation in the princess royal residence. I can't immediately tell if the people who died were the princess royal's trusted subordinates or if they were pulled here to make up the numbers."
"Hm?"
Su Man's thoughts moved. "Yue Qing came from the princess royal residence. He should be able to tell right?"
"Your Majesty."
Liu Luo's gaze darkened. "Your Majesty, are you planning on letting Yue Qing help?"
"Yeah."
Su Man glanced at Liu Luo and smiled. "Liu Luo, you're not jealous of Yue Qing right?"
Liu Luo shook his head hearing Su Man's teasing words. "I'm not jealous. I just don't believe him. He came from the princess royal residence. Since Su Wan could let him get close to Your Majesty once, there will be a second time. Your Majesty, how can you tell when he's real and when he's fake? "
Yue Qing …
Yue Qing's elegant face flashed through his mind. Su Man couldn't help but smile. "No one can lie to me. Liu Luo, you have to believe in my abilities!"
"Since Your Majesty knows, then I'll just treat it as Liu Luo being a vile person."
Liu Luo looked down and smiled bitterly. Su Man's expression darkened seeing that he seemed to be a bit angry.
She had been high and mighty since she was young. Those who obeyed her would prosper and those who opposed her would perish. Who dared to give Su Man a hard time in the entire imperial city? Liu Luo was the first and only one.
Was it because she treated him too well?
Thinking of this, Su Man couldn't help but sneer. "It's been a good spring recently. I'm going to stay in the temporary imperial residence for a while. Coincidentally, the zither I found for Yue Qing is ready. I'm taking him out this time. I'll leave the matters of the imperial harem to you."
With that, Suman coldly stood up, turned around, and left without hesitation.
Such a big thing happened in the capital yet Su Man chose to go to the temporary imperial residence at this time. She was just luring the mastermind behind the scenes to make the next move.
Watching her leave without hesitation, Liu Luo absentmindedly recalled that they were newlyweds not long ago.
At that time, he thought that he found the love of his life. Even if he had to give up everything and give up all of his mother's expectations for him, it was worth it.
But now?
Liu Luo smiled bitterly. Was it worth it or not? Who could say for sure?
When the rumors and slanders in the capital were at their peak, the news of Su Man's departure from the capital gradually spread.
Was Her Majesty trying to clear her name by leaving the capital at this time? Or was she purposely avoiding?
Did the princess royal residence make any new moves after Her Majesty left the capital?
When everyone's gazes were focused on Su Wan, she gave everyone a huge surprise. Princess Royal was going to get married!
Once this news spread, it was even more shocking than Her Majesty's wedding!
Nani. Was the princess royal residence going to hold three happy events this spring?
