Upon hearing this, Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing looked at each other.
It’s not that Gongsun Sheng changed quickly, but his conspiracy had obviously been brought to light.
"What does the emperor say?" Fu Ciyi asked Eunuch Han.
"The Emperor is currently chatting and laughing with him, and he's trying to delay as much as possible. This old servant has come here to ask Your Highness and the Princess to persuade the Fifth Princess."
How long can we keep dragging it out without paying attention?
That's why he came here in a hurry and almost broke his bones.
"Go into the palace and take a look."
Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing both stood up.
When the couple followed Eunuch Han to the palace and went to Fu Nanyao's palace, Fu Beimo and Meng Li were already there.
Seeing his brother and sister-in-law coming over, Fu Nanyao said directly, "Are you all here to persuade me?"
"I tell you, it's useless."
"In the past few days, I have met with Prince Sheng many times, and even his brother praised me for my good temper."
My sister-in-law has a bad temper and cries easily.
After all, she is better than her sister-in-law in some ways.
Yan Funing said, "Nan Yao, you met with Crown Prince Sheng privately. Did the Emperor and Empress know about this?"
"Do they know that Prince Sheng and I have already met? Sister-in-law, I won't hide it from you. I envy you for being liked by a handsome and outstanding man like my brother. I want to pursue my own happiness. After spending a few days together, I believe Prince Sheng has gradually fallen in love with me." Fu Nanyao said with a smile, "I imitated the way you used to cook for us and made snacks and dishes for Prince Sheng. He ate them all."
I have to say, my sister-in-law has a way of seducing people.
She only learned a little, but gained a lot.
Yan Funing shook her head secretly and asked, "Have you ever considered that he has other purposes for approaching you?"
Fu Nanyao couldn't listen: "If my sister-in-law asks me this, I will think that she is afraid that I will win the favor of Prince Sheng. After all, he once said that he wanted to marry you."
Yan Funing sighed helplessly.
If it wasn't a serious matter, she really didn't want to get involved.
"Nan Yao, you shouldn't speak to your sister-in-law like that." Fu Ciyi said coldly, "Think about Dong Kuang's purpose in approaching you. After you divorced, he learned about your life story and approached you again. What was his purpose?"
"Isn't it because of my status?" Fu Nanyao smiled. "I know that if I weren't a legitimate princess, I wouldn't be eligible to discuss marriage with Prince Sheng. After all, being well-matched is very important."
Having said this, he glanced at Meng Li vaguely.
A good match?
Meng Li's inferiority complex suddenly arose, his head hung low, and he couldn't utter a word.
Fu Beimo was furious when he heard this. "Round-faced man, you're so snobbish! I really hate the fact that you and I are twins. Can't you use your brain a little? Can't you see that some people hide evil intentions behind their good appearance?"
"You're all scolding me." Fu Nanyao suddenly raised her voice, "It's too late. I already took the initiative to kiss him yesterday."
Hearing this, Meng Li's eyes turned red.
Yan Funing pulled Fu Ciyi's finger. Since this matter concerned Bei Qi's purpose, she didn't know whether she should tell Nan Yao clearly.
Fu Ciyi couldn't make up his mind either.
After all, once I tell her, what if Nan Yao still insists on marrying...
By then, she would not only be used by Bei Qi, but would also tell Gongsun Sheng about their precautions. By then, the problem would become even bigger.
Mainly because his sister is too unstable, he doesn't dare to take the risk.
At this moment, Qiao Wanyou came over quickly, supported by Nanny Li.
She walked straight towards her daughter. Before anyone could greet her, she slapped Fu Nanyao on the cheek with a loud slap.
Five finger marks appeared immediately, showing how hard the slap was.
"Mother, you hit me?" Fu Nanyao covered her face and cried.
Qiao Wanyou said solemnly, "I hit the daughter I carried for ten months and gave birth to; I hit the daughter I raised with great difficulty; I hit the daughter who, knowing that her sister-in-law had helped her many times, was still like an ungrateful wolf, only wanting to compare herself with her sister-in-law."
"If you still want to call me mother, you must stay in Dajing."
"I've said before that once we marry, there's a high probability we'll never see each other again in this life."
"I just want my daughter to be by my side. Even if you want to marry far away, you have to stay within the boundaries of Dajing."
"If you insist on going to the marriage, I will not stop you. From now on, you are nominally the Princess of the Marriage, and I am the Queen of Dajing. Privately, I am extremely disappointed in you."
I couldn't bring myself to sever the mother-daughter relationship.
Fu Nanyao couldn't stop crying.
Her mother had never said such harsh words to her.
"Mom, but I really like Prince Sheng. He is handsome."
"Good-looking? There are so many good-looking people in the world." Qiao Wanyou sneered.
"Ali just came to our house and you took a fancy to him as soon as he was clean."
"Later, Lu Wenfeng often came to Baozhuang Village, and you took a fancy to him."
"Later, when Bo Jian came to Baozhuang Village, you were completely stunned."
"Once you arrived in Beijing, you, with your empty head and stupid mind, insisted on marrying Dong Kuang."
"Now, relying on your high status, you have set your sights on the prince of a neighboring country."
"Lu Wenfeng and the Third Master Yan don't count. It was Dong Kuang who set me up," Fu Nanyao said tearfully, "and as for Ali, it was my father who felt that he wasn't good enough for me."
Qiao Wanyou smiled helplessly, "Yeah, I thought your brothers had different personalities from you. Who do you resemble, loving everyone you meet?"
Like this bastard Long Yi.
Fu Nanyao cried even harder.
There were people in the room, but no one came to comfort her.
Even her sister-in-law didn't look at her.
His eyes moved towards Meng Li, but he looked away.
"This problem was caused by your father. Before the marriage delegation arrived, he asked you about your wishes many times." Qiao Wanyou tossed her sleeves. "I'll go find him."
Fu Ciyi hurriedly pulled Yan Funing to follow.
I don’t know how my mother will talk to my father about this, and I’m afraid they will start arguing, so it’s better for me to go with them.
Seeing his brother and sister-in-law leave with the queen mother, Fu Beimo also followed them out.
Meng Li followed closely.
Seeing them leave one after another, Fu Nanyao collapsed on the beauty couch and cried.
Qiao Wanyou quickly came to Long Yi.
At this moment, Gongsun Sheng was sitting below Long Yi, and the two of them were drinking tea and chatting.
"Prince Sheng, Nan Yao's face has turned red for some reason. Even in Dajing's climate, she's still red. If she were to go with Prince Sheng to Beiqi, where the weather is dry, I imagine her facial discomfort would be even more severe." Qiao Wanyou didn't beat around the bush and stated her purpose directly. "Therefore, I'm wondering if Prince Sheng should choose a different princess for the marriage?"
Gongsun Sheng was startled: "This..."
His gaze passed Queen Dajing and fell on Yan Funing.
I wonder what she would think when she found out that he wanted to marry the fifth princess?
Qiao Wanyou added with a smile, "Don't worry, Prince Sheng. If you choose another princess, I can register her under my name."
Gongsun Sheng murmured, "Even though she's listed in name, she's not considered a legitimate princess."
"Princess Man isn't a legitimate princess, is she?" Qiao Wanyou's smile faded, and she said in a rather imposing manner, "You previously asked to marry my daughter-in-law, and now you ask to marry my daughter..."
"Prince Sheng, if you were me, would you dare marry your daughter to Beiqi?"
