Chapter 300 Push Him Away Easily

The word "marriage" exploded like a powder keg, and everyone was stunned.

If what I just said was just a guess, it actually seems more likely that Princess Dongyue was deliberately provoking.

After all, although Dongyue arrived in Shengjing only yesterday, the difficulties he faced against Su Rui and the Honglu Temple yesterday and today have already reached the ears of every official. Most people are not optimistic about Dongyue's visit to Zhao as a sign of friendship.

Too hasty and too fast.

Even though Dongyue had just experienced a change of master and suffered certain damage, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. Moreover, at this time, as the regent princess, Rong Huan should be focusing on keeping Dongyue stable, stabilizing the country, and avoiding any risk of a comeback, instead of rushing to visit Da Zhao.

Unless, there is a purpose.

However, this plan has gone through countless morning court sessions and private discussions, but no one has come to a conclusion. No one can figure out what Princess Dongyue is planning this time.

But now when I heard the word "marriage", I understood.

She came here just for Yun Ji.

Although Rong Huan is now the Princess Regent, she is still a woman and very young. The power in her hands is just that of an external clan and is not stable.

Yun Ji is Prince Yong of the Great Zhao, the only remaining legitimate brother of the current emperor. Let's not talk about whether the throne will be his turn. Just look at his current popularity among the people of the Great Zhao and the military power he holds. If Rong Huan can marry him, it will definitely strengthen his power in Dongyue. Those who are secretly ready to make moves will have to give up their thoughts. After all, opposing Rong Huan means going against the Great Zhao.

Conversely, the same applies to Yun Ji.

With the eldest princess Rong Huan as the main wife, it means that the power of the entire Dongyue country has been obtained. It is several times stronger than Tang Yuli in the past, and even stronger than Su Rui.

But, would Queen Lin agree?

"Marriage? What kind of marriage does the princess want?" Queen Lin's expression showed no emotion.

"Rong Huan is not married yet, and I heard that Prince Yong doesn't have a wife either. A few months ago, Prince Yong defended Weicheng to the death. Rong Huan felt that Prince Yong was wise and brave when she heard about it. I just don't know if Prince Yong dislikes Rong Huan because she is too old?" Rong Huan looked at Yun Ji with a slightly worried look as she spoke. Her cute and delicate facial features made her look especially cautious and pitiful, as if she was really a girl who was afraid that Yun Ji would reject her.

And no one expected that the eldest princess of Dongyue would be so straightforward. She directly stated that she wanted to be Yun Ji's principal wife at the beginning of the banquet. How should they respond?

If Yun Ji agrees, will Queen Lin, the Second Prince, and the Lin family agree?

If they don't agree, they will be destroying the diplomatic relations between the two countries.

Moreover, from any perspective, Yun Ji should agree to this pie-in-the-sky thing.

"Bang!"

Just as everyone was waiting for Yun Ji to answer, there was a sudden explosion.

Following the sound, I saw that Su Rui had kicked over the long table in front of her. The cakes and fruits on it fell to the ground and rolled all over the floor, and the porcelain plate was broken into pieces.

No one expected that Su Rui would dare to overturn the table.

But this scene seems familiar.

The last time I saw him was at Prince Long’s welcoming banquet, and it was Yun Ji who overturned the table.

This is really one person at a time.

Su Rui was obviously more thorough and angry than Yun Ji. He simply stepped over the long table that had been pushed over, and without even paying a courtesy to Queen Lin, he walked out without looking back.

Yun Ji immediately jumped over the long table and chased after him, and the two of them left the Taiji Hall one after the other.

Everyone was stunned. Empress Lin smiled awkwardly and tried to smooth things over, saying, "Concubine Su has always been a bit arrogant, and now she's even more so after giving birth. Princess, please forgive me."

The people have already left, and Queen Lin doesn't blame me, so what can I do if she doesn't forgive me?

What's more, who can't see that they are acting in coordination with each other?

After a few polite words, the palace banquet continued as if nothing had happened before.

On the other side, Su Rui and Yun Ji were already walking on the road out of the palace.

Yun Ji, who had been holding back his pace and pretending he couldn't catch up, suddenly caught up with Su Rui. He reached out and grabbed her hand, saying, "There's no one left."

"There are so many eyes in the palace, so it's better to perform the whole play." Su Rui pulled her hand out of Yun Ji's.

The fingertips passed through his hand, and it was too late for Yun Ji to grab it.

"Are you still angry?" Yun Ji asked with a smile.

Su Rui turned around in confusion, "What are you angry about?"

"What do you think?"

"Princess Dongyue is going to marry you, the prince? Isn't this just a show? Am I acting too seriously?" Su Rui blinked her clear eyes, without a trace of anger.

It was as if there was no word to say anymore, everything that just happened was just perfect acting.

Seeing her like this, a flash of disappointment flashed across Yun Ji's eyes.

After being together for so long, Su Rui noticed it keenly, but tried her best to pretend not to see it and maintain the "sincerity" in her eyes.

Only she herself knew that her kicking over the long table just now was not entirely an act, but contained some real anger. She couldn't tell the difference, but she knew that she was angry.

From the moment Rong Huan stared at Yun Ji without any concealment, she felt unhappy and suppressed the urge to question him. However, she heard Rong Huan's frank words, which further proved that Rong Huan came here for Yun Ji.

She said that she was attracted by Yun Ji's decision to defend Weicheng to the death, but they both knew that Yun Ji had been to Dongyue, met Rong Huan, and even got close to her. Maybe Rong Huan had already fallen in love with him at that time, which was why she hurried to Dazhao and made things difficult for her.

From the beginning to the end, Yun Ji never took the initiative to tell her about Dong Yue, nor did he ever mention meeting Rong Huan.

You keep saying that you like her, love her, have feelings for only her, and only have her in your life, but that's all bullshit!

Therefore, even though Su Rui had a tacit understanding with Queen Lin at the time, he still kicked out his anger along with the kick.

But, I cannot say the same as Yunji.

Since he has deceived me, I should just go back to my original position.

"Or is it that the prince doesn't want me to perform this drama today, and wants to marry Princess Dongyue?"

“How could it be!”

Yun Ji blurted out, wanting to explain, but Su Rui took over first, saying, "In fact, Princess Dongyue is indeed a good candidate for a principal wife. Regardless of whether she truly loves the prince, this marriage would be a win-win for both the prince and the princess. It's just that today, in front of Queen Lin, this matter cannot be completed. However, the prince has no principal wife, and this is a move that benefits the country, so Queen Lin cannot openly oppose it. The princess will stay in Shengjing for a while. As long as her mind does not change, the prince can interact with her more often, and I think it will come to fruition."

Listening to Su Rui's clear and logical analysis of the pros and cons, Yun Ji's face darkened step by step.

Before he went to Changdu Pass, Su Rui did the same thing, wanting to send him to others several times, and was as calm as an outsider who only cared about the pros and cons.

But now, he has made his feelings known, and they have already...

But she still did so, easily pushing him away.
