Xu Chen'an put down the things in his hands and suddenly laughed. He knew that it was impossible to deceive Su Mengyan with these things.
Indeed, just now, he wanted to say that it was the emperor who forced him, but Su Mengyan stopped him first.
Yes, if he had not shown up on his own initiative, the emperor would not have known of his existence, and there would be no such thing as forcing him.
"Do you believe me when I say I'm destined to do this?" Xu Chen'an asked. Perhaps it was time for him to reveal some information.
Su Mengyan sat up straight all of a sudden. She would definitely not believe such a thing in the past. Yes, she could even travel into a book. Maybe destiny really existed!
"What do you mean?" she asked. She couldn't wait to find out whether the destiny Xu Chenyu talked about and her understanding of destiny were the same concept.
However, Xu Chen'an couldn't clearly explain what the Mandate of Heaven was, and could only say, "This country needs a wise ruler, and it's impossible for you and Situ Yao alone to make the crown prince."
Su Mengyan was a little surprised. Although Xu Chen'an did not reveal what destiny was, he knew what she and Situ Yao were thinking.
Could it be that my thoughts were too obvious? Even this person, who had only known me for a short time, could see through them?
Impossible, Su Mengyan denied this possibility in an instant. The two of them had never thought of wanting that position in front of outsiders.
Could it be that when Su Mengyan looked at Xu Chen'an, it was his so-called destiny that told him?
Seeing that Su Mengyan was slow to speak, Xu Chen'an took out something. Su Mengyan looked closely and found that it was a flower.
"What is this?" I was very curious why Xu Chen'an suddenly took out a flower.
Xu Chen'an handed the flowers to Su Mengyan and asked her to take a closer look, but Su Mengyan didn't see anything wrong with them.
"I picked up this flower when I went to Cui's house. Smell it and see what it smells like." Xu Chen'an reminded her and told her the origin of the flower.
After Su Mengyan smelled the scent, she felt it was somewhat familiar. After thinking carefully, she suddenly threw the flower on the table and asked, "Is this flower poisonous?"
She remembered that the smell of this flower was exactly the same as the smell of the poisonous fog that appeared in the East Palace at that time.
"Yes, this is the poison in you. The poison is colorless and odorless at first, but after it has been in the body for a long time, it will have a smell, just like the smell of poisonous fog." Xu Chen'an explained.
He had brought the flower back a while ago, so the fragrance naturally came out.
Su Mengyan suddenly thought that if she hadn't asked someone to burn the flowers, she might have discovered the poison earlier.
Seeing that Xu Chen'an really wanted to help her, Su Mengyansi fell silent.
She knew that this was like a stepping stone, Xu Chen'an's way of proving his sincerity.
Su Mengyan thought about it again and again, and he knew that Xu Chen'an might really want to do something for them, although he didn't know whether the so-called destiny was what she thought it meant.
Looking at Xu Chen'an who was staring at her, Su Mengyan suddenly smiled.
"Can I trust you?" she asked.
He didn't know whether he could trust this person who came out of nowhere, and he didn't know whether his action would have any impact on his future.
But now that things have come to this, Xu Chen'an has already said that it is destiny, and all she can do is trust him. Moreover, Xu Chen'an is not completely useless to them. It can even be said that Xu Zhian is quite useful.
At this time, having a master who can detoxify can often save your life at the critical moment of life and death.
Maybe she should try to trust him.
"Your Highness, the Emperor has invited everyone to a banquet." A palace maid came to report.
At this time, Su Mengyan was resting in the room. When she heard the news, she was curious and wondered what kind of banquet the emperor was going to hold.
"Oh, really? Who are there?" Su Mengyan asked curiously after sitting up.
The maid answered truthfully.
It turned out that this was a sudden banquet that all the ministers and princes had to attend, and since Su Mengyan was the Crown Princess, she naturally had to go as well.
Su Mengyan said she understood and let the maid go, but she was still very curious about the banquet. She knew that if there was nothing going on, such a banquet would never be held.
Could it be that the emperor wants to use this banquet to announce something? I don’t know whether this banquet is good or bad.
The time for the banquet has arrived, and many ministers have already appeared in the palace. Everyone is in twos and threes, hanging out with those they get along well with.
These people also received this news suddenly and were curious. Like Su Mengyan, they also felt that something would definitely happen at this banquet.
At this moment, the appearance of a person caused everyone to talk about it.
"Whose lady is that? How come she appears at this banquet?" someone asked.
Yes, this banquet was either for the royal family or for ministers, how could a woman suddenly appear?
Someone recognized the person and said, "This seems to be the daughter of Lord Cui. She seems to be the one who is engaged to the Seventh Prince."
When everyone heard this, they understood. Since she was engaged to the prince, which made her half a royal family member, it was no wonder that she appeared here.
Cui Mixue came with her father. Yesterday, her father came to her after the court session and said, "Xue'er, there will be a banquet in the palace tomorrow. The emperor specially asked me to take you there."
At that time, she was very happy and felt that the emperor remembered her.
But now, she looked at the people around her and felt a little embarrassed. How did she know that she was the only rich girl at this palace banquet?
Suddenly I remembered that my father said that the emperor specially asked her to come. Then I realized that there might not have been any other young ladies there from the beginning.
Thinking of this, she became proud again. So what if she was the only woman? It only meant that the other ladies did not win the emperor's favor, but she was remembered by the emperor.
However, as a girl, it was not appropriate for her to show up in public, so Cui Mixue found a palace to hide in and waited until the banquet began.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived, and His Royal Highness the Crown Princess has arrived." The eunuch's voice sounded.
Everyone kowtowed hurriedly. Situ Yao waved his hand and asked them to stand up. Then he and Su Mengyan sat down in their seats.
After a while, the Queen Mother and the Emperor also arrived.
At this time, Situ Zhaocai came slowly hand in hand with Cui Mixue, who was dressed in a gorgeous dress.
It turned out that when Cui Mixue came, she happened to meet Situ Zhao, and the two of them came together.
"I'm late, I hope your Majesty and your Majesty won't blame me." As soon as Situ Zhao arrived, he was busy apologizing. He didn't want others to find fault with him.
Cui Mixue also bowed and apologized appropriately, and everyone's eyes were fixed on these two people in an instant.
