"When the time comes, I will tell Ninth Prince everything I know without reservation!"

It turns out that she did it for herself...

"You, you are loyal to me."

"I am the Ninth Prince's woman. If I die, I will be his ghost!"

These words moved Ye Guihong so much that he was confused.

He said in a muffled voice: "You don't have to marry the guard. If it really doesn't work out, you can come to my house..."

Forget it, just take her in.

It's not bad to keep it by your side and raise it like a beautiful little toy.

"But... I have already spoken..."

"Just wait!"

Ye Guihong escaped from the west window, jumped onto a tree, and then flew out of the yard using his lightness skills.

Zhu Xianyue looked at his back as he left, lost in thought.

She could feel that Ye Guihong now had a good impression of her.

But this liking is just liking, not love.

Moreover, taking her into his mansion was something he could do.

When a man is willing to step out of his comfort zone and pursue the impossible in order to be with you, he is truly in love with you.

…

Before Prime Minister Zhu returned home, Ye Guihong stopped him.

Although they belong to two factions, they don't get too awkward outside.

Besides, Ye Guihong is the ninth prince, and he has royal blood.

Even if he loses the battle for the throne, he will continue to be a prince.

"This old minister pays homage to King Hong."

"Prime Minister Zhu, please excuse me. I came to see you today. It's a long story, but I'll cut to the chase."

"Your concubine, Zhu Xianyue, is very much to my liking. I intend to marry Zhu Xianyue as my concubine, following the advice of Emperor Ming and his mother. I wonder if Prime Minister Zhu is willing to give her up?"

Prime Minister Zhu’s eyes opened wide!

I really don't know what kind of luck his cowardly concubine's daughter has.

First, she was appreciated by the Emperor, and now she is favored by the Ninth Prince...

But having said that.

Letting Zhu Xianyue marry the Ninth Prince will only increase his power.

She's just a concubine's daughter, and the Queen won't say much.

For him, there is an extra way out——

If the Third Prince is defeated in the future and the Ninth Prince ascends the throne, he will still be the father-in-law of the emperor.

"Yes! Of course I am willing! It is my daughter's blessing that the Ninth Prince has taken a liking to her! I will tell Madam and Yue'er the good news when I return!"

"Thank you for your help, Prime Minister Zhu."

Prime Minister Zhu then took his leave.

I feel like my steps are light.

Hahaha.

I almost laughed out loud in the street.

Fortunately, I gritted my teeth and held it in.

Otherwise, it would be a big joke.

He didn't know that as Ninth Prince Ye Guihong watched him leave, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

He has already investigated Zhu Xianyue's situation.

I also know what kind of life Zhu Xianyue once lived.

Zhu Xianyue also stated her position, which was that she would betray everyone and only be loyal to him.

……etc.

This little concubine's daughter was so loyal to him only because she wanted him to become the crown prince one day and promise her a life of glory.

But why did he think that this loyalty had another meaning?

Ye Guihong, ah Ye Guihong, you are really... brainless!

The guard beside him noticed something was wrong and asked him, "Ninth Prince, are you feeling unwell?"

"Wrong." Ye Guihong said slowly.

"…What's wrong?"

"The title is wrong. Remember, don't call me Ninth Prince, call me stupid donkey!"
