"Let's put this matter aside for now and discuss it further later."
Gao Changhong rubbed his forehead in frustration.
He's been making too many moves lately, even offering the Snow Lotus in exchange for the Crown Prince and his family's divorce, but he still failed in the end.
Especially now that Emperor Wenjian is particularly convinced of that Taoist's words, no matter what he does, for the sake of the fate of the Great Liang Dynasty, he will not agree to their divorce.
Moreover, his Snow Lotus was stolen by Emperor Wenjian's men, and he gained nothing from it. For him, who never liked to suffer losses, this was an utter disgrace!
Naturally, his first priority was to find a way to steal the Snow Lotus back, or at least exchange it for some benefit.
"Father!"
"Alright, stop making a scene. Behave yourselves for now. We're not leaving right away; we still have time!"
Gao Yufei wanted to act coquettishly, but Gao Changhong interrupted her irritably and then got up and left.
"Hmph! I can't wait any longer. If I wait any longer, their child will be born by then!"
Seeing that her father wasn't helping her, Gao Yufei stood there and muttered something.
Then, after thinking about it, she decided to go and ask Su Liluo herself to get to the bottom of things.
At worst, she can marry into the Crown Prince's household as a secondary wife. As long as she can marry into the Crown Prince's residence first, she can slowly win over the Crown Prince's love and make him divorce the Crown Princess.
With that in mind, she quickly tidied herself up and rushed out the door.

When Su Liluo came out of the mansion, she happened to run into Gao Yufei riding her horse down at the gate.
Gao Yufei was dressed in a bright red riding outfit, and her long hair flowed in the air as she dismounted.
From a distance, its beauty is striking and dazzling.
Even Su Liluo had to admit that Gao Yufei was indeed a great beauty.
"Princess!"
This time, Gao Yufei took the initiative to greet her, her tone hurried, but without her usual arrogance; instead, she seemed to show more respect.
This made Su Lilu feel vaguely strange.
Why did Gao Yufei suddenly change her attitude?
"Princess."
Su Liluo greeted her in a similarly indifferent manner.
Since the other party hadn't started causing trouble yet, she couldn't be impulsive right from the start.
"Yes, I've come to see you today because I need something."
Gao Yufei glanced at her with a somewhat embarrassed look, then said gently.
Do you need to see her?
Su Liluo was slightly surprised when she heard this and glanced at Gao Yufei again. This seemed to be the first time that Gao Yufei had spoken to her so gently.
"Please speak freely, Princess."
"Could we find a place to sit down and talk this over?"
Gao Yufei looked at Su Liluo with hopeful eyes. She knew that she had to talk to her properly and slowly to make her request, as it couldn't be explained in just a few words.
"I'm sorry, I may not have that much time. Princess, if you have something to say, why don't you just say it here?"
Su Lilu shook her head regretfully.
She didn't want to waste time talking to Gao Yufei any more.
"You—you're not even willing to give me a moment to speak properly? This princess is unusually humble today!"
When Gao Yufei was rejected by Su Liluo, she couldn't hold back her pride any longer and said with a wronged yet domineering chin.
She rarely speaks to her so politely, yet she still doesn't give her any face!
Su Liluo chuckled lightly, "Do you think I'll agree just because you're begging me? Princess, you'd better hurry up and tell me, or I'll really be leaving."
"Okay, I'll tell you, I've taken a liking to your husband, you know that, right?"
Seeing that she really wanted to leave, Gao Yufei didn't care about anything else and had to quickly say something.
"Everyone knows this, what are you trying to say?"
Su Liluo looked at her calmly, a hint of mockery hidden in her eyes.
To be able to say she's interested in someone else's husband in front of his wife, Gao Yufei really has no sense of shame.
It's unclear whether this boldness is simply a trait of the people of the Northern Desert, or if Gao Yufei is the only one who is like this.
"I... I want to marry him. Tell me, what will it take for you to give him to me? You can ask me for anything if you agree to give him to me."
Gao Yufei said, her neck stiff.
"Pfft!"
Instead of receiving a reply from Su Liluo, Su Liluo covered her mouth with a handkerchief and couldn't help but laugh.
At the same time, the maid beside Su Liluo couldn't help but laugh along with her.
They all looked at Gao Yufei with mockery, their eyes seemingly saying that she was delusional. The Crown Prince and Crown Princess were deeply in love, how could they possibly give up the Crown Prince to her?
Moreover, the fact that Gao Yufei had previously expressed her desire to marry the Crown Prince, only to be rejected by him, had already spread far and wide.
At the time, many people said she was shameless. Now, seeing her so openly saying such things in front of the Crown Princess, they think Gao Yufei really has something wrong with her head.
"What are you all laughing at?"
Gao Yufei saw that everyone was laughing at her, and she glared at them angrily and asked them a question.
At this moment, Su Liluo slowly put away her smile and turned to look at Gao Yufei seriously.
She said clearly, "Princess, do you think I'm stupid, or do you think your dreams can come true? Why should I give my husband to you?"
"Not to mention that my husband doesn't like you, even if it were me, no matter what you offer, don't even think about coveting my husband!"
"Are you really not willing to give it up? I'm very rich. Our Northern Desert is actually much richer than your Great Liang. We also have handsome men there. If you're willing to give them to me, I can give you all of these."
And my brother, if you were to voluntarily relinquish the crown prince position to me, I could ask my brother to treat you well in the future. My brother is the kind of man many women in the Northern Desert dream of marrying!
Gao Yufei said anxiously, her face flushed.
Originally, she felt that if the Crown Princess divorced the Crown Prince, and her father made her brother marry her, it would be unfair to her brother, as she was not good enough for her outstanding brother.
But now she feels that as long as she can agree to give the crown prince to her, she will acknowledge this sister-in-law and ask her brother to treat her better. But why is she so ungrateful?
Although her brother Gao Junning was a little less handsome than the Crown Prince, he was still a handsome man!
Moreover, the Northern Desert is more prosperous than the Great Liang, so marrying into the Northern Desert would be a blessing.
"No matter how good your brother is, he's not the one I love. What does he have to do with me? If the princess is just spouting nonsense today, then farewell!"
After Su Lilu finished speaking, she lifted her foot to step down the steps and leave.
Seeing this, Gao Yufei quickly chased after them.
“I am the Princess of the Northern Desert. If you really don’t want to, then I’m willing to be the Crown Prince’s concubine. We can take care of him together! You know my identity. As long as the Crown Prince marries me, it will definitely help him consolidate his position!”
I know that the other princes of Liang are also eyeing the position of crown prince. Don't you want the crown prince to ascend the throne smoothly in the future?
