When Chu Yan first ascended the throne, there was chaos in the south, and King Jingnan volunteered to quell the rebellion and was later granted a title. He retired at the right time and kept a low profile, so Chu Yan has always valued him.

Prince Jingnan and Cheng Shi entered the palace. They looked at Su Bei and the father and daughter of the Jiang family for a moment, and then said, "Your Majesty, Miss Jiang loves Prince Su, and everyone in the capital knows it. The marriage of a daughter should be decided by her parents. It is better to betroth Miss Jiang to Prince Su. As for Princess Huicheng..."

His eyes fell on Cheng Shi, soft and warm, "I am not talented, but I have admired the princess for a long time. I just want to go back to the countryside with her. I hope Your Majesty can make it happen!"

It has to be said that Chu Yan was moved by his words.

As a prince, if Chu Younan died, someone would have to be buried with him. But he didn't want that person to be buried with him to be Su Bei. After all, this girl was capable and smart, and she pleased him more than Mu Hui.

Moreover, when he put down the rebellion in the south, he asked King Jingnan what he wanted, but King Jingnan only wanted to retire. It was not too much to satisfy his son's request now.

"In that case, let's do as King Jingnan wishes!" Chu Yan said, then stood up and walked out.

Jiang Ruwei's face turned pale instantly, and she started to cry out on the spot: "Your Majesty! I don't want to! I don't want to!"

But Chu Yan didn't care about that. To him, Jiang Ruwei was no different from other women, and it was not a pity to bury her alive with him.

But he didn't expect that Su Bei, who had been silent all the time, actually spoke, forcing him to stop.

"Your Majesty! I am already His Royal Highness Prince Su's wife, and I will never marry anyone else!"

Chu Yan turned his head, his eyes full of surprise. At this time, Jiang Ruwei was so scared that she wanted to run away, but Su Bei actually said such a thing...

"You! Don't talk nonsense!" Chu Yan rebuked in a deep voice.

Su Bei met his gaze without fear. Her voice was not loud, but it was enough to shock the whole audience. "I am not talking nonsense! Although I don't know if I am pregnant with Prince Su's heir, I am willing to marry into the palace. If he dies, I will be buried with him. If he lives, I will spend the rest of my life with him!"

After she finished speaking, she turned her head and looked towards the inner hall, her voice deep and distant, "I think His Royal Highness Prince Su would not want to see the princess crying and wailing in the tomb when she is buried with him in the future. Please take back your order, Your Majesty!"

She did not wait for Chu Yan's answer, but turned her head and looked at Chu Yan cunningly but firmly, "Your Majesty once promised that if I could complete three tasks, he would make me a first-rank princess and marry me to Prince Su. I have completed the Fengyuan Yin soldiers' crossing of the border, and Princess Mu Hui's marriage has also been settled. Now Miss Jiang is unwilling to marry Prince Su, and all three tasks have been completed. Please keep your promise, Your Majesty!"

The whole hall was silent.

A gentleman never jokes. Chu Yan wanted to protect her, but he couldn't.

"Appoint Su Bei as a first-rank princess and grant her marriage to Prince Su Chu Younan. Choose a date for the wedding!"

Su Bei breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Cheng Shi deeply, thanked him, turned around and walked into the inner hall.

For some reason, she felt that Chu Younan would not die.

The wedding date was calculated by Gu Rui, and it was three days later, which was the nearest auspicious day. It was not a very auspicious day, but this kind of arranged marriage had to be completed as soon as possible to bring good luck.

On that day, Su Bei returned to the Princess' Mansion. The gate of the Mansion had been blown to pieces and people from the Dali Temple were collecting evidence.

Seeing Su Bei coming over, Ling Xiao hurried forward, "Greetings, Princess!"

"What did you find out?"

"There are body parts at the scene. Someone must have hidden gunpowder on their body, and more than one person." Ling Xiao paused before saying, "I have checked the servants in the mansion. Except for the injured people, the eight maids sent by King Mu are all missing."

In the summer breeze, Su Bei narrowed her eyes slightly. The sun was bright, but her eyes were full of gloom. "So, it was King Mu who sent someone to do it?"

"I think so too." Ling Xiao nodded. "Prince Mu has always felt that he is the eldest son and his position as crown prince is secure, but the prince's popularity is getting stronger and stronger. In addition, the previous incident of Princess Mu snatching someone away, Prince Mu and his wife contemplated their mistakes behind closed doors, and he may feel that he has no hope of becoming crown prince."

"Ling Xiao!" Su Bei whispered, "Find someone to sneak into Prince Mu's mansion and find out if he has made any mistakes!"

A fierce light flashed in her almond-shaped eyes. If anyone dared to hurt Chu Younan, she would keep staring at him unless he was flawless!

"Yes!" Ling Xiao agreed and turned away.

He has been following Chu Younan since he was a child. After this incident, his hatred is no less than Su Bei's.

Su Bei was planning to go back to the palace, but when she reached the street corner, she was stopped by Xiao Han.

"Princess!" Xiao Han looked solemn. "I heard that there was an explosion in the Princess's Mansion and the prince was injured. Is this true?"

Su Bei looked at him warily, "What do you want to say?"

Xiao Han took out a small porcelain bottle and said, "Zhang Ganzhu said that he was tested for poison since he was a child, and sometimes he was beaten, and he was burned by fire sticks many times, so he made this bottle of ointment by himself. Do you want to try it?"

Su Bei's expression softened, and she raised her hand to rub her forehead. Perhaps because it happened so suddenly, she was on high alert recently.

"Did he make this ointment?" She took it and opened it to take a look. The ointment was green and smelled like medicine.

Xiao Han suddenly pulled out a dagger. Su Bei frowned, but before he could shout, he cut his arm with the dagger, then took out a piece of ointment from the porcelain bottle and applied it on his arm.

"I know you don't believe me, but you and the prince saved our lives. We won't harm you." Xiao Han said, raising his arm to show her.

Su Bei said apologetically, "I was too nervous. This happened... too suddenly..."

Xiao Han smiled at her, his fox eyes shining like stars. "To be honest, I was dragged back from the mass grave by them. If it weren't for Brother Zhang and you, I would have been turned into medicine. Try this ointment. If it works, we will make a large amount."

Su Bei's throat choked and he couldn't speak.

Xiao Han smiled at her, "Don't worry, I was almost out of breath at the time, but somehow I recovered. The prince will be fine."

Su Bei felt more hopeful.

As soon as she returned to the palace, she showed Xiao Han's medicine to Doctor Xue. After getting Doctor Xue's approval, Su Bei began to use it on a small area of ​​Chu Younan's hand. Two days later, the hand that had used the new medicine was obviously better than the unused part. Su Bei then boldly asked Xiao Han and Zhang Ganzhu to produce a large amount of it.

Not only were they busy, Xue Jinrong also read many medical books and prepared a decoction for internal use. After being tested by the imperial doctors, it was also used on Chu Younan.

Everything is going in the right direction.

Thinking of this, Su Bei didn't feel that sad even when he was holding a big red rooster in the wedding ceremony. Instead, he thought that it would be great if getting married by bringing good luck really worked.

There was no lingering love in the wedding night, only Su Bei, wearing a bright red nightgown, smeared the newly made ointment on every wound on his body...

"Chu Younan, you have to try hard to wake up! Don't travel to another place again!" Su Bei muttered softly.
