"Yes! What's the connection?" Fu Shou asked curiously.

What's the next line?

"Beauty can be found in books!"

"What your cousin means is that he's praising your beauty. Only a golden house could be worthy of your jade-like face!" Liu Hua said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Fu Shou's face broke into a wide smile, like a blooming peony.

"Cousin, is that what you mean?"

Liu Wei nodded with a smile.

Fu Shou said, "Then I'll wait for my cousin to come and marry me with a house of gold!"

After saying that, he skipped and hopped out!

"Your Highness, this joke has gone a bit too far!"

After Fu Shou left, Liu Wei gave Liu Hua a helpless smile.

"Didn't you agree to give Shou'er a golden house too?" Liu Hua was overjoyed.

Whether it was a joke or not, Liu Wei's agreement to marry Fu Shou meant that he agreed to participate in the struggle for the throne.

"I only did this because I thought my cousin was innocent and naive, and I didn't want to hurt her feelings, so I had no choice but to go along with her wishes!"

"I don't care about that, I just agree to your request!"

Liu Wei shook his head.

In my previous life, I played house with my female classmates at school and promised to marry them.

As they grew up, they became someone else's bride!

Do we have to keep the promises we made as children?

At this moment, however, Liu Hua resembled a lioness brazenly preparing for battle:

"Rest assured, for Shou'er's sake, I will do everything in my power to help you ascend to the throne!"

But Liu Wei immediately poured cold water on his enthusiasm:

"Imperial Aunt, aren't you curious about what Father Emperor said to me today?"

"Yeah! What exactly did you two talk about?"

Liu Wei said, "My father said that if the Prince of Hongnong or the Prince of Chenliu is not virtuous, you may replace them."

What?

Liu Hua's phoenix eyes widened instantly.
