Xuan Yuan Yu's sudden move left everyone present dumbfounded.
The Third Prince is indeed in love with Miss Su. He even defied the imperial decree in front of the Emperor and said he didn't want to marry the Prime Minister's daughter. Where does this leave Zhao Zhenzhen and the Prime Minister's family's reputation?
Everyone turned to look at Zhao Zhenzhen, and sure enough, her face turned red, as if she had been humiliated.
Su Feiling also looked grim; at this moment, her jealousy towards Su Xuening reached its peak.
She was originally the designated wife of the Third Prince. Even if Xuan Yuan Yu wanted to marry her, he should have asked her for the hand of marriage. Why is it Su Xue Ning again?
It was one thing before, but now that Su Xuening's alluring face is ruined, why is Xuan Yuan Yu still so attached to Su Xuening? What is it about her that makes her inferior to Su Xuening?
Being proposed to by Xuan Yuan Yu in public, Su Xue Ning attracted the jealousy of countless women present, but she herself had a solemn expression.
She couldn't understand why, even with her face disfigured like this, Xuan Yuan Yu still wouldn't let her go!
Upon hearing Xuan Yuan Yu's request, Xuan Yuan Peng frowned and looked at Su Xue Ning.
Looking at her, though her face was disfigured, she was still breathtakingly beautiful, and seeing the wounds on her face, one could think they could still be healed.
Considering her behavior from the beginning of her appeal to the emperor until now, she has remained neither humble nor arrogant, and is intelligent and insightful. She is indeed a good housewife.
However, with Su Renzhong's passing away and the Su family's eldest branch weakened, Su Xuening's status was somewhat inferior. But if Yu'er liked her, making her a concubine wouldn't be out of the question.
It seems that Consort Su originally intended to give Su Xuening the position of a concubine.
Xuanyuan Peng and Su Fei exchanged a glance, as if asking for Su Fei's opinion.
Consort Su also glanced at Su Xuening. She knew that her son was infatuated with Su Xuening. Su Xuening was her own niece, and Yu'er liked her. She was originally willing to give Su Xuening the position of a concubine.
Now that Su Feiling can no longer be Yu'er's principal wife, and Zhao Zhenzhen and Su Xuening are giving her a choice, she will still choose Su Xuening. Yu'er's principal wife must be a member of the Su family.
Consort Su understood and said to Xuan Yuanpeng, "Your Majesty, since it is Yu'er who is choosing a consort, we should also listen to Yu'er's opinion on this matter."
Upon hearing Su Fei's words, Xuan Yuan Yu's eyes lit up.
His mother has agreed to his marriage to his cousin Ning'er as his principal wife.
Upon hearing Su Fei's words, Su Xuening frowned anxiously.
What's going on? Consort Su actually agreed to let her become Xuan Yuan Yu's principal wife?
Su Feiling was equally shocked; it was only at this moment that she truly realized she had been abandoned by her aunt.
Why?
Why does her aunt no longer support her becoming Xuan Yuan Yu's principal wife? She had always been the one she had chosen!
Xuanyuan Peng also understood the meaning behind Consort Su's words. She wanted him to make Su Xuening Yu'er's principal wife, but Su Xuening's status...
Well, since both mother and son wanted this, he couldn't be bothered to interfere anymore.
"Then..."
"emperor!"
Just as Xuanyuan Peng was about to issue the imperial decree, two voices rang out simultaneously, interrupting him.
Su Xuening exchanged a surprised glance with Bai Shi, because they had both spoken at the same time, but Bai Shi's voice was louder and drowned out Su Xuening's.
Xuanyuan Peng frowned as he looked at Bai Shi, wondering what kind of trouble she had caused this time. Just as he was about to ask her a question, Bai Shi suddenly came over and knelt down in front of him.
Xuanyuan Peng was startled by Bai's actions and got up to help her without thinking: "What are you doing?"
His helpless tone was full of doting affection.
Lady Bai refused to get up and knelt beside Xuan Yuan Yu, saying, "This humble woman wishes to ask for the marriage of Miss Su as the principal wife for my good-for-nothing son. I humbly request Your Majesty to grant us this marriage."
Everyone was stunned by Bai's words.
What kind of drama is this now? Is this farce never going to end? It's getting more and more exciting with each episode!
The Holy King's Dowager Princess wants to arrange a marriage between the Holy King and Miss Su. Isn't the Holy King known for being a jinx to his wives? I heard he's also suffering from some serious illness, but I've also heard that Miss Su is quite resilient.
If Miss Su marries into this family, either she or the Holy King will die! Either way, one of them is going to die! Shouldn't the Holy King's Dowager Princess reconsider?
Su Muyao, however, seemed to be possessed by some evil spirit, and suddenly stared at Su Xuening with bloodshot eyes, as if she wanted to kill her.
Su Xuening was oblivious to Su Muyao's gaze, still absorbed in Bai Shi's request for permission.
What happened?
The Holy King's Dowager Princess asked the Holy King to marry her as his principal wife.
But why? She had absolutely no connection with that holy king!
Xuanyuan Peng was also shocked by Bai's request, and lowered his head to whisper, "Why are you getting involved now!"
They're choosing a concubine for Yu'er right now. Is she trying to target Consort Su or Yu'er? Why is she meddling in this mess?
"I'm serious!" Bai muttered to herself, giving Xuanyuan Peng an extremely earnest look.
The whispers between the two, heads bowed and eyes raised, resembled those of an ordinary married couple deeply in love.
Everyone understood once again the special treatment Xuanyuan Peng had for the Bai family, and they were all wondering if the rumors outside were true!
Seeing the two of them being so affectionate in public, Consort Su turned green with rage and went crazy with jealousy: "Your Majesty!"
That crazy woman, Bai, wants to take everything from her! She meddles in everything she does! Now she's even competing with her for her daughter-in-law!!!
Originally, Consort Su did not necessarily need Su Xuening, but now that Madam Bai is going to fight for her, she, Su Huiyan, is determined to have Su Xuening as her daughter-in-law!
"Father!" Xuanyuan Yu also looked at Xuanyuan Peng anxiously.
He was the one who requested the imperial decree first. The Emperor knows how much he likes his cousin Ning'er. The Emperor can't bestow Ning'er upon Xuanyuan Zhan, can he?
"Your Majesty!" Seeing Bai Shi and Xuan Yuan Yu calling him "Your Majesty" and "Father Emperor" repeatedly, Bai Shi also followed suit.
She shouted whatever they shouted; she couldn't afford to lose.
Xuanyuan Peng looked at the group of them, feeling utterly overwhelmed.
This is truly a case of barren land that no one cultivates, but once cultivated, everyone wants to fight over it!
Xuanyuan Peng was completely undecided. He glanced at Su Xuening, just about to ask for her opinion, when Su Muyao suddenly rushed out.
Ever since Bai Shi requested an imperial decree to grant the Holy King and Su Xuening a marriage, Su Muyao has been acting like she's gone mad.
She had always admired the Holy King since she was a child and dreamed of becoming his queen. But now the Holy King's Dowager Consort actually wanted Su Xuening to be the Holy King's queen.
Why is it Su Xuening again?
It wasn't enough that she seduced her cousin Yu; she also wanted to seduce the Holy King!
Su Muyao stared intently at Su Xuening. At that moment, there was no other sound in her mind; her heart and eyes were filled with nothing but Su Xuening, the slut who had stolen the Holy King.
"Su Xuening, you slut! You're not a virgin anymore, yet you still try to seduce the Holy King!"
With a clear goal in mind, Su Muyao rushed to Su Xuening's side and grabbed Su Xuening's sleeve, pulling hard.
With a "rip!" sound, Su Xuening's sleeve tore open.
