Yun Shu shrank back and said nothing.

Wen Renji: "Speak!"

Yun Shu wanted to argue that it was not the case, but everyone saw it and could only remain silent.

Wen Renji seemed to understand something and sat powerlessly on the chair. He could still forgive Yun Shu for being raped by the refugees because she was forced, but what about Yi Xianyu?

Wen Renji calmed himself down and asked in a calm tone, "When did it happen?"

Yun Shu muttered, "I'm in the team returning to the capital, but Your Highness, I was forced!"

Wen Renji: "Is it forcing you to know?"

He suddenly understood many things that he had overlooked in his previous life, such as why Yi Xianyu broke off his engagement with Yun Yuan, and why Yun Shu married Yi Xianyu. It was because they had been having an affair behind Yun Yuan's back.

And he noticed the strange looks from passers-by. Maybe they were not talking about his arm, but were sympathizing with her for having a whore who was available to everyone without knowing it!

Wen Renji's expression became colder and colder. Yun Shu cried, "Your Highness, please believe me. I was really forced..."

"Should I call Third Young Master Yi over for a confrontation?" The Imperial Concubine couldn't bear to see Yun Shu treating her son like a fool. "And there are many ministers and noble ladies accompanying him. They are all eyewitnesses. Do you dare to tell them in front of them that Third Young Master Yi forced you?"

"Concubine...concubine..." Yun Shu was unable to defend herself. Unable to bear Wen Renji's cold and piercing attitude change, her eyelids suddenly drooped and she fainted.

Imperial Noble Consort: "Come here, send her back to the Wenchang Marquis's residence. Don't let her soil this palace. Such a wanton woman is not worthy of being my son's concubine."

"Wait." Wen Renji said, "Mother, I still have some use for her."

"What's the use?"

Wen Renji: "I, your son, cannot speak."

The Imperial Concubine frowned: "Does it have to be her? You have so many women, can't you just change one?"

Wen Renji shook his head: "She is the most suitable. If things do not develop as I expected, I will personally send her back to the Wenchang Marquis' Mansion."

"Alright then. She absolutely cannot be allowed to attend the palace banquet. I cannot afford to lose face like this. I will have her sent back to your house."

"Thank you, mother."

Imperial Noble Consort: "We have to hurry up and take care of the issue of offspring. The eldest prince is getting married, and things are bound to go wrong if time goes on."

Wen Renji said, "I know."

………………………………

Night gradually enveloped the earth, and millions of bright lights illuminated the entire palace as bright as day.

Yun Yuan and Wen Ren Ji appeared together at the palace banquet.

Their arrival instantly attracted everyone's attention, and the originally lively scene became quiet because of their appearance.

Everyone bowed and said in unison: "Greetings to the Crown Prince!" The voices were uniform and loud, echoing throughout the palace.

Wenren Ji smiled slightly and waved his hand.

"No need to be so polite, this is Princess Renhui." His tone was gentle and kind, and everyone couldn't help but look at Yun Yuan.

It was the first time that everyone saw Yun Yuan, who was named Princess Renhui by His Majesty for assisting the eldest prince in controlling the flood. She was dressed in gorgeous clothes, with a face as beautiful as a poem and a painting, and her every move showed her charming appearance.

Wen Renyan coughed unhappily, and everyone woke up as if from a dream. They all bowed to Yun Yuan and said, "Greetings to Princess Renhui."

Yun Yuan: "Everyone, please stand up quickly."

This Mid-Autumn Festival banquet was held in a family setting, with no separate seats for men and women, symbolizing family reunion. Yun Yuan sat next to the eldest prince, enjoying the attention of everyone, most of whom were young talents.

Mu Chi was also among them, looking at Yun Yuan almost greedily. After receiving Wen Ren Yan's warning look, he smiled bitterly, looked away, and did not step forward to say hello.

Some noble ladies who were dissatisfied with Yun Yuan being married to the eldest prince gave up the idea after seeing Yun Yuan's appearance. They did not want to humiliate themselves.

Wenchang Bo's seat was at the back. Someone was shocked by Yun Yuan's beauty and quietly asked him if he had a daughter of marriageable age.

Wenchang Bo straightened his back and said, "I still have nineteen daughters who are unmarried, but they are all engaged."

The visitor shook his head and left. Wenchang Bo glared and complained to Mrs. Tao.

"Nineteen's marriage is not a good one. If that man insists, I can break off the engagement and marry him."

Mrs. Tao was speechless: "Does Uncle think marriage is a joke? If you want to decide, you can decide. If you want to change, you can change."

Wenchang Bo's back bent again: "I'm just thinking about Nineteen..."

"If you hadn't gotten drunk and talked nonsense with your bad friends, Nineteen wouldn't have married an old man."

Wenchang Bo fell silent, picked up the wine at the table and guzzled it, "I knew you all looked down on me, looked down on me."

Seeing that Yun Yuan became a princess and was favored by the eldest prince, a colleague came to congratulate Wenchang Earl. He was surprised to see that he was drinking before the meal started.

"Uncle, what's this?"

Tao smiled and replied, "He is very happy to see his daughter succeed."

"You should be happy indeed. Good fortune is yet to come for Lord Wenchang."

Wenchangbo: "..."

Wenren Ji also came. His seat was right next to Wenren Yan, and his eyes followed Yun Yuan vaguely.

Not long after he arrived, the emperor and his concubines also came, and they all knelt on the ground.

"Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor; a thousand years and a thousand years of life for the Empress; may all the Empresses live in peace and prosperity."

"Get up."

The emperor's gaze searched the crowd and finally fell on Yun Yuan.

"Are you my newly appointed Princess Renhui?"

Yun Yuan bowed and said, "Your Majesty, your servant Yun Yuan pays respects to you."

"Stand up and hold your head up."

"Yes." Yun Yuan stood up and looked directly at the emperor.

But her eyes were like autumn water, her lips were the color of cherry blossoms, and she was like a delicate flower in spring. Just by standing there, she became a scenery in herself, and you couldn't see anything else.

The emperor's eyes were full of amazement, and he began to understand why Wenren Yan wanted to get married. If it weren't for the fact that Wenchang Bo was hiding it too well, he would also want to keep such a beauty in the palace.

But it was too late to think about it now. He couldn't do anything like taking his son's wife away.

He retracted his gaze and said, "He's a good boy. Has the Imperial Astronomical Observatory decided on a date? I can't wait to drink Yan'er's wedding wine."

Wen Renyan breathed a sigh of relief and pulled Yun Yuan to sit down. His fiancée was so beautiful that he was really worried that his father would not be able to control himself enough and would cancel his engagement to let Yun Yuan enter the palace.

Such things have happened in history.

The director of the Imperial Observatory bowed slightly and was very respectful.

"Your Majesty, after careful observation of the celestial phenomena at night and careful calculation, I have determined that the second day of September is an auspicious day for marriage and auspicious for marriage."

The emperor was delighted. He slapped the armrest of the golden dragon chair beside him and said in a loud voice, "Okay, let's set it for the second day of September."

Wen Ren Yan and Yun Yuan smiled at each other, and Wen Ren Yan quietly took Yun Yuan's hand under the table and rubbed it gently. Her hands were smooth and shiny, like the finest white jade, which made Wen Ren Yan unable to let go.

Wen Renji felt as if he had lost something. In his previous life, he and Yun Yuan also got married on the second day of September.

After the palace banquet ended, Wen Renji couldn't help but stop Yun Yuan and asked, "Are you really not coming back?"
