She wished there was a crack in the ground for her to crawl into. How could she dare to wake up at this time? But when she heard that the Prince of Jingnan's wife was going to take a concubine for the prince, she couldn't lie still.

After all, she is the legitimate daughter and doesn't want to be someone's concubine.

Fortunately, when she opened her eyes, she saw Su'er staring at King Jingnan with wide eyes, "Father, when did I say that I wanted to give the prince a concubine? Didn't you want to marry and let the prince take full responsibility for this matter?"

"I want to get married?!" Prince Jingnan's eyes widened even wider than hers, "When did I say I wanted to get married?!"

As soon as he said this, Su Bei noticed that Chu Ruzhi's expression relaxed a lot. And when King Jingnan said this, he glanced at Chu Ruzhi with a guilty look.

There is a chance for these two people, but they both seem to be hesitating about something, so the window paper cannot be broken.

Su Bei thought for a moment and said, "It seems like this is all a misunderstanding. Why don't we just go our separate ways today?"

Most people present wanted to leave quickly, but Bei Danzhu was not happy about it. Her father had told her that it would be best if she could squeeze in with Chu Younan, or at least cultivate her own faction in the capital.

Today is a perfect opportunity for her to get a glimpse into Chu Younan's thoughts.

"Putting aside the misunderstanding, when we went in, we saw Miss Ruan being held by King Jingnan. What should we do?" Bei Danzhu looked at Chu Younan anxiously.

Su Bei said coldly: "Just now you said you heard it, and now you have seen it with your own eyes?"

Just because she doesn't make any sound doesn't mean she is deaf.

The visitor had bad intentions, but Bei Danzhu was not afraid. She was best at reading minds, and she immediately realized that Su Bei was particularly unfriendly because her eyes were always on Chu Younan.

She quickly retracted her gaze and said seriously, "Miss Ruan and I have always been good friends. This matter is related to her innocence, so of course I have to speak for her."

As soon as these words came out, Ruan Qingyue lowered her head.

She was only 28 years old, who wouldn't want to find a handsome young man to accompany her for life? She went to visit Prince Jingnan's mansion purely because she was deceived by Ruan Ningyun and Bei Danzhu, and it was not to please the Crown Prince's wife and marry Prince Jingnan.

Her thoughts were known by Chu Younan and Bei Danzhu at the same time.

One of them wanted to bring her together with Prince Jingnan, while the other wanted the opposite result.

However, Bei Danzhu was at a disadvantage, and Chu Younan was the emperor. He said bluntly, "Please ask King Jingnan to explain this matter clearly."

Prince Jingnan gritted his teeth and endured the pain, and hurriedly explained: "Prince Zunyi asked me to move around a bit, so I went for a stroll in the yard today. Who would have thought that a black shadow passed by, and Miss Ruan fell from the sky and hit me. There was no hug at all, and my leg was even more seriously injured."

"In that case, Ruan Qingyue, do you have anything else to say?" Chu Younan said in a deep voice.

Ruan Qingyue said quickly: "I don't know about this either. I fainted after being kidnapped."

Chu Younan looked at Ruan Ningyun again, "Have you ever seen them hugging each other?"

Ruan Ningyun didn't dare to lie and shook her head.

Chu Younan turned to Su'er again, "What about you?"

"I didn't see it." Su'er told the truth of course.

Bei Danzhu thought Chu Younan was going to ask her and had prepared a set of excuses, but he turned his head and looked at Chu Ruzhi, "Auntie, can you see it?"

Chu Ruzhi has a quick temper, but that doesn't mean she is a fool.

"No." She shook her head firmly.

Chu Younan didn't care about Bei Danzhu and said directly: "Since no one saw them hugging each other, then this matter is groundless. No one is allowed to spread it, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"

Bei Danzhu had been planning for so long, but only got this result. She was of course very annoyed, "Your Majesty, but I..."

"You said that you and Ruan Qingyue are good friends, but you have been obsessed with things you haven't seen. What is your intention?" Su Bei spoke.

Bei Danzhu wanted to quibble, but Chu Younan also spoke.

"Everyone, get off!"

Don't even give her a chance to speak.

Bei Danzhu felt as if a breath was stuck in his chest, as if a huge rock was pressing on him.

The crowd gradually dispersed.

It’s just that Prince Jingnan’s legs are not in good condition, so he hasn’t moved yet.

Apart from him, Chu Ruzhi did not move either.

Even after Su Xiujie had finished his work and left, Chu Ruzhi did not move.

There were only four of them left in the house.

Chu Ruzhi then spoke: "I would like to ask Your Majesty to be a witness."

"Aunt, please speak." Chu Younan had actually seen through her thoughts.

"Prince Jingnan swore that he would never marry. Is that true?" Chu Ruzhi glanced at Prince Jingnan angrily.

Prince Jingnan bowed his head, "It is true."

"Then I would like to ask Your Majesty to be a witness. A gentleman's word is as good as his bond. Prince Jingnan has said it, so he must do it!" Chu Ruzhi looked at Chu Younan resolutely.

That wasn't her intention.

Chu Younan knew it well, and after a moment's silence, he said, "Aunt, do you know that you were abducted this time? How did you find you?"

"It was the Heavenly Master who led people to look for it." Chu Ruzhi said.

"The master used a unique secret technique called blood-seeking technique, which requires the blood of the missing person as a trigger." Chu Younan said slowly, "If King Jingnan hadn't taken out the letter written by my aunt, I'm afraid even with the most powerful technique, it would be difficult to find my aunt's whereabouts."

These words were just one step away from clarifying the two people's thoughts, and they both knew it clearly in their hearts.

Why did Chu Ruzhi insist that Prince Jingnan fulfill his oath?

Why did King Jingnan keep her blood letter? Chu Ruzhi didn't want to be humiliated again, but King Jingnan couldn't save face.

So the situation became a bit awkward.

"Of course I do what I say!" King Jingnan said heroically.

Su Bei held his forehead with his hand, "How about...you consider the other party?"

This time it was really clear! But the two of them were unexpectedly in sync.

"no way!"

"impossible!"

The two said in unison, glaring at each other.

If Prince Jingnan hadn't had bad legs and feet, he would have definitely left the imperial study before Chu Ru.

But even though his legs were not good, he still limped out with his injured leg to show his determination.

Looking at Chu Ruzhi's angry back and Prince Jingnan's limping figure, Su Bei inexplicably felt that the two were a perfect match.

But this matter of love still needs to be figured out by the parties involved, otherwise there is no solution.

This problem was basically solved, but new problems emerged.

Su Bei's belly was already very big, and it was a little inconvenient for her to walk, sit or lie down, so Chu Younan came over to help her.

As I support you, I want to hug you, and as I hug you, I want to kiss you.

But just as Chu Younan kissed him, he heard Tang Jiang report from outside: "Your Majesty, Concubine Zi has been waiting outside for a long time, saying that she wants to see you."

Concubine Zi?

It took Chu Younan a while to react before he realized who Zipin was.

"Let her go back and rest first!" Chu Younan said in a deep voice.

"But Zipin has just entered the palace, and we haven't arranged an accommodation for her yet. Where can she rest?" Tang Jiang asked cautiously.

Yes, Chu Younan had forgotten that he had such a concubine, and of course forgot to arrange accommodation for her.

"Let her live in Baoxiang Palace..."

Before Chu Younan finished speaking, Tang Jiang exclaimed, "Oh my! Why did Concubine Zi faint?"
