When he turned around, he saw Rong Yan sitting in a wheelchair, with one hand seemingly lightly placed on his wrist, but in fact the force was like an iron clamp, preventing him from breaking free.
"Second brother wants to force her to death?"
The second prince felt that his wrist was about to break.
"It's the parents' will and the matchmaker's words. How can a child threaten to commit suicide?" Shen Cangyun was shocked and looked at Rong Yan. "Your Highness, Shen Ruyi is like this. Is she really a lucky star? If this gets out, what will the people think? Wouldn't all the women in the world follow her example and disobey their parents like her? Can this world ever be better?"
The so-called lucky star must be both virtuous and talented. If Shen Ruyi's reputation is completely ruined and the people don't care, then her title will be useless, and in the end Li Xiangyi will have to be accused of being a superstitious person who deceived the emperor.
In order to control Shen Ruyi, Shen Cangyun has resorted to all means, "Ninth Prince, although she is your junior sister, she is also my daughter! Nothing is greater than the grace of parents' upbringing! She even dares to disobey my words. Can such an unfilial daughter really protect the emperor!"
The Northern Qi Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety.
If Shen Ruyi were accused of being unfilial, it would be a big problem for her survival and marriage in the future. Even if the Ninth Prince wanted to marry her, the Emperor would not agree.
He must not encourage unhealthy tendencies.
Rong Yan's pupils shrank slightly.
The title of Shen Ruyi Ziwei Lucky Star was agreed upon by him and Li Xiangyi in order to protect her.
But she didn't expect that it would become her shackles today.
He could help ruin the marriage of Shen Ruyi and Gu Qinghua, but he did not have enough evidence to make Shen Cangyun and Shen Ruyi break off their relationship without affecting Shen Ruyi's reputation.
However, Shen Ruyi cannot marry the second prince!
Rong Yan narrowed his eyes and stared at Shen Cangyun, "Prime Minister, she is your daughter, but she is not just your daughter. She should ask the emperor for his opinion on who she will marry. I want to ask you, who is the head of Northern Qi, you or the emperor?"
"you--"
Shen Cangyun was so angry that he was shaking, but he couldn't respond.
Seeing this, the Third Prince helped to speak up, "Ninth brother, this is polite. Since Miss Shen is the lucky star of Ziwei, her every move and marriage are all related to the safety of our father and the prosperity and decline of Northern Qi. How can the Prime Minister arrange it as he wants?"
The prince agreed and said, "Third brother is right. Besides, judging from the past few incidents, the Prime Minister's Mansion is partial to the Second Miss Shen. The young master of the Shen family even drugged the First Miss Shen and tried to destroy her innocence. What else can't the Prime Minister's Mansion do?"
"In view of this, everything related to Ziwei Fuxing in the future should be left to the father to handle, rather than arranging it so casually."
The Third Prince nodded, "Second Brother said he fell in love with Miss Shen at first sight, so I can say the same. She is a lucky star, who wouldn't fall in love with her at first sight?"
Having said that, the relationship has been torn apart.
In the power struggle within the court, Shen Ruyi was just a middleman.
Love and hate, none of them are worth mentioning.
Now, the room was divided into two factions.
One faction was headed by the Second Prince, including Concubine Li, the eldest princess, the Gu family, the Prime Minister's Mansion, and several other families who were also at the banquet.
The other faction is the Crown Prince, the Third Prince, the Ninth Prince, Prince Yan and others who are against the binding of the Second Prince and Ziwei Fuxing.
The opposition is large in number and powerful, but Shen Cangyun is Shen Ruyi's biological father, so the two sides are relatively evenly matched.
The third prince couldn't help but glance at Shen Jiaojiao and ask why the people she arranged hadn't arrived yet.
Shen Jiaojiao couldn't help but look outside the door, her face pale and her fists clenched.
She thought of the ambition she had made when she first came to the capital - to step on Shen Ruyi's head and become the most noble lady in the capital. Then she would marry Gu Qinghua, cut off ties with the Shen family, and use the convenience she had in the Shen family to frame the Shen family and use the power of the third prince to wipe out the Shen family.
Then, she would surrender to the Third Prince. After the Third Prince ascended the throne, everyone in the Gu family would have to rely on her face if they wanted to survive. This was also the reason why she had a relationship with the Third Prince.
She wanted to give birth to a child of the third prince’s bloodline in the Gu family!
In this way, even after the third prince ascends the throne and has a queen, three palaces and six courtyards, he will not forget that he has a child in the Gu family.
In this way, she can be guaranteed a life of wealth and glory.
Even if the third prince insists on destroying the Gu family after ascending the throne, he will still bring her into the palace for the sake of the royal heir.
She knows a ghost doctor who can change her appearance.
When the time comes, she will change her identity and be able to thrive in the palace.
But I didn't expect that all of this has been ruined by that bitch Shen Ruyi!
Now, all the princes are fighting for Shen Ruyi.
What about her?
Is it the clown or the supporting role?
She wanted Shen Ruyi to be ruined and turned into ashes more than anyone else present!
She looked out the door anxiously.
The second prince ignored the objections of the others and just stuck to Shen Ruyi, persuading her: "Ruyi, don't be angry. I know you are unhappy, but it doesn't matter. If you can't accept it for the time being, we can take it slowly after marriage. I am willing to fall in love with you over time."
As long as Shen Ruyi agrees, other people's objections will be invalid.
The second prince was very fortunate.
Shen Ruyi looked at him and felt a little disgusted.
She was not that narcissistic. She felt that there were so many people in the world who fell in love with her at first sight. She knew the Second Prince's purpose better than anyone else. He just wanted to control her tightly because of her reputation as Ziwei's lucky star.
But she wouldn't let him succeed.
With a slight movement of her fingers, she planned to poison the Second Prince and threaten him to get out.
Rong Yan gently pulled her back, took a step forward in his wheelchair, and looked at the Second Prince, "Second brother, I'm afraid you forgot that you also have a fiancée, and she's still guarding the border for you!"
The second prince froze!
The person Rong Yan was talking about was Xu Hongyan, the daughter of General Xu He, who was a great general. It was Concubine Li who arranged the marriage for him three years ago in order to win over Xu He and use him.
But the situation changed rapidly. In a short period of time, Shen Ruyi became the woman that everyone wanted to fight for. Gu Qinghua messed things up again, forcing him to take risks and forget about this matter!
The Second Prince was in a dilemma for a while, and finally he gritted his teeth and said, "I can break off the engagement with Xu Hongyan and only marry you!"
No matter what, he will not let Shen Ruyi go!
In order to please her, he even stepped on Shen Jiaojiao's face and said, "Ruyi, Gu Qinghua betrayed you for that fickle bitch Shen Jiaojiao. He was blind. I have seen it all over the past year and it hurts my heart! Don't worry, from now on, no matter who wants to bully you, they have to get past me!"
Shen Jiaojiao, who was suddenly called out, was so angry that she vomited blood.
Turning her head to look at the Second Prince, she saw him kneeling on the ground, insisting on marrying Shen Ruyi, kneeling on the ground in a humble manner. A wave of jealousy surged up in her like a tide!
