The entire court knew, and if Ye Beihan wanted to know, he could just ask anyone and find out the answer.
This marriage alliance is an ominous sign, and who knows what will happen next.
Even though the imperial advisor didn't say anything, he was also vaguely worried and could only take it one step at a time.
"Night Cold, whether you are an envoy or the regent of Northern Liang or not."
You'll find out about Prince Yu's matter sooner or later. If you want to stay and listen, then stay and listen.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The people in the court all perked up their ears, after all, this matter was like gossip, not only arousing people's curiosity, but also concerning the fate of the nation.
The minor official beside Su Luo straightened up and listened attentively.
"This matter concerning Prince Yu is probably the most coincidental thing I have ever seen."
The more His Majesty said this, the more curious the ministers became.
“In fact, Princess Yu has been by our side for a long time. Everyone in the court has seen her and knows her.”
The minor official beside Su Luo was taken aback. The more he listened to what His Majesty was saying, the more he felt something was wrong.
What are you saying? It's the same thing Su Luo said just now.
Could it be?
No way?
Is what Su Luo said true?
Is she really... Princess Consort of Prince Yu?
"Vice Minister of Agriculture, will you tell me about your affair with Prince Yu yourself, or do I need to tell you for you?"
Su Luo stepped forward somewhat embarrassed and gave the emperor an official salute.
"Hahaha..." the emperor laughed, "Back then, I even ordered you to give Prince Yu acupuncture."
Who would have thought that you'd been married for so many years and your children were all grown up?
What?
The Deputy Minister of Agriculture is Princess Yu's wife? What a coincidence!
His Majesty was right after all; it was truly a coincidence.
The minor official who had initially disbelieved Su Luo was utterly stunned upon hearing this answer again.
What Su Luo said might be a lie, but His Majesty said it himself, so it couldn't be a joke.
"Fate is so strange; I never expected it."
Those who didn't know Su Luo all had the same question in their minds at this moment: how could the Deputy Minister of Agriculture have been married to Prince Yu for so many years?
They could understand that Prince Yu had forgotten many things due to his injury, but when Su Luo came to the capital, it seemed that she was not familiar with Prince Yu.
What's going on? Is it because Prince Yu doesn't remember her? Or does she not want to acknowledge Prince Yu?
As outsiders, we really can't fathom what these two are thinking.
"Alright, I shouldn't say too much about Prince Yu's family affairs. If you have nothing else to say, then all my ministers may leave the court."
As the court session ended, Ye Beihan passed by Su Luo, his eyes scanning her from head to toe.
He grinned wickedly, his eyes filled with an even stronger sense of amusement.
Nangong Chiyu walked to her side, and the two, dressed in official robes, walked out of the main hall side by side.
Nangong Qing walked silently behind the two. Su Luo and Prince Yu were a loving couple, and he should have been happy for her.
Seeing them like this, why did he feel so heartbroken? It felt like his heart was being torn apart, the pain suffocating him.
Not far from the palace, Su Luo saw that bright yellow figure. Nangong Manyu no longer rushed over to see Nangong Chiyu as recklessly as before.
He was now simply standing on the palace wall, watching her and Nangong Chiyu from afar.
"Vice Minister of Agriculture, the Fifth Princess invites you to come and have a seat."
The one who came forward to speak was Nangong Manyu's personal maid, who had been waiting outside the main hall for some time.
"Okay! Got it."
Nangong Chiyu grabbed Su Luo's arm and said to her, "I'll go with you."
Nangong Chiyu still remembered the Fifth Princess's crying expression a few months ago. At that time, he didn't have time to explain his relationship with Su Luo to her.
Given the Fifth Princess's persistent pursuit of him over the years, he worried that Nangong Manyu would make things difficult for Su Luo, and he didn't want to embarrass Su Luo because of him.
"Your Highness Prince Yu, the Fifth Princess said that she only requests the appointment of the Deputy Minister of Agriculture."
Su Luo gently stroked Nangong Chiyu's hand that was holding hers and spoke to him in a softer tone.
"It's alright, I can manage on my own. Besides, the Fifth Princess is also my friend."
"But……"
"No buts needed, I know what I'm doing."
Su Luo and the palace maid had barely taken two steps when Nangong Qing walked past them without even saying a word to her.
"Nangong Qing, the Fifth Princess is there. Shall we go see her together?"
Nangong Qing glanced at the spot Su Luo was pointing to, and sure enough, Nangong Manyu was standing there. He shook his head listlessly.
"Go by yourself, I'm not feeling well."
"Where do you feel unwell? Would you like me to take a look?"
Seeing that his eyes were lifeless and his symptoms seemed quite serious, Su Luo realized that he had already taken several steps back before she had even examined him, and almost bumped into Nangong Chiyu.
"No need, thank you for your concern, Princess Yu. I have a royal physician in my residence."
Nangong Chiyu seemed to understand his illness, but this was a necessary experience, so he could only comfort him.
"Third Prince, you must take care of your health. If you are not feeling well, I will have Chi Yi escort you back."
"I said I don't need it!"
Nangong Qing responded irritably to Nangong Chiyu's concern and turned to walk out of the palace gate.
Su Luo thought it was just a reaction to his physical discomfort.
"Luo Luo, I'm waiting for you here."
Nangong Chiyu dared not go far; he would stay right here. If Nangong Manyu dared to do anything excessive to Su Luo, he would not let her off.
"No need, just wait for me at the palace gate."
Su Luo followed the little palace maid to Nangong Manyu's back. Everyone else stepped back, and even Nangong Manyu turned her back to her.
"Your subject greets the Fifth Princess."
Nangong Manyu turned around, clutching the handkerchief in her hands, and helped Su Luo up.
"You are now the Princess Consort of Yu, so you don't need to bow to me or refer to yourself as your subject."
Two months passed, during which her father came to comfort her many times, and she learned the whole story.
Moreover, her affair with Prince Yu was all just rumors and speculation; there was nothing to it in the open.
Prince Yu is too important to Nanning, as is Su Luo. For Nanning, one is the city wall that protects the people from the enemy's sword, and the other is the food supply for the people. They are both indispensable.
Even if she was the emperor's most beloved princess, he could not disregard the people of Nanning and the fate of the nation for her sake.
In those sixty days, she cried, made a scene, was confined to the palace by her father, and also had quiet moments, figured things out, and let go of the past.
"Fifth Princess, I actually..."
"I know that the princess did not mean to hide it from me. In fact, you did not know that things were like this. It was all fate, wasn't it?"
Yes!
Nangong Manyu had already told Su Luo everything she wanted to say.
She turned to look at the main hall, where Nangong Chiyu was waiting, his eyes fixed on them, as if afraid she might do something to harm Su Luo.
“Prince Yu really cares about you. He’s been watching you the whole time. I’ve known him for so long and I’ve never seen him treat anyone like this before.”
Su Luo remained silent. She didn't know what Nangong Manyu wanted to say to her after calling her over. Was it to blame her for taking Nangong Chiyu away, or something else?
